I woke up on Saturday feeling fully energized. Tonight there was going to be a bonfire where Jake said I could properly hear the legends. I had talked to my grandma last night and she said she'll un-ground me as long as I promise to never not go to school without telling her first. Plus she made me promise I would clean the house and have dinner ready for her when she got off work, which I would have done even if she didn't ask.
I got out of bed and put on a black cami and a pair of boy shorts. I pulled my hair into a messy bun before walking down the stairs prepared to clean everything in sight. The house wasn't dirty but I was some what of a clean freak. I liked the house to look lived in but I wanted it to be clean at he same time. Before I could even turn on my music I heard my phone ring from upstairs. Running to get it in time I answered it.
"Hello?"
"Ang? It's Leah."
"Oh hey what's up?"
"Um can I ask you a favor?" She sounded a bit nervous confusing me. Leah Clearwater never got nervous from what I had seen.
"What is it Lee?" I asked hoping using her nickname would make her spit it out.
"Um well you see I know you'll be home alone all day since Jake has patrol until the bonfire and Embry just got off patrol. I haven't really had any um..alone time with him in awhile and I was suppose to watch Claire this afternoon and I was wo-"
"Leah I'll watch Claire so you can do your extra curricular activities with Embry. It's fine", I said cutting her off. I liked little kids and I knew I could count on her if I ever wanted to do something with Jacob when he was free.
"THANK YOU! Thank you so much! I owe you one! Come outside I'll be there in like two minutes."
"Alright but just walk in I have to find something for Claire to entertain herself with."
"Okay be there soon", she said before the line went dead.
I went back downstairs and into the hall closet to find something to entertain Claire with. I seen some art supplies and a few coloring pages. I went back upstairs to get some printer paper. I got back downstairs just in time to see Leah walk in the door with Claire right on her heels.
"Hey she has all her stuff in her backpack and just know she's allergic to cinnamon", Leah said in a rush. She came over to me and gave me a hug before turning back around to give Claire a kiss on the forehead. She got to the door before turning around and looking at me up and down, making me feel slightly self conscious.
"What?"
"Nothing just that you have like the perfect body. It especially shows with what you're wearing. Me and you are going to sit down and have a discussion one day and you're gonna get me into that type of shape", she said looking serious. I blushed and looked down and mumbled something incoherently.
"I'm serious. Alright I must leave love you both and see you at the bonfire, bye!", she said closing the door behind her. It was quiet for a few seconds before I looked over at the little girl.
"I think Lee's crazy", I said looking down to her. She giggled and nodded her head vigorously. I laughed out loud before grabbing her head and leading her into the living room. I grabbed her backpack and put it by the t.v.
"So Claire I have to clean the house so I'm gonna put on some music. I have paint and crayons with coloring books and paper. After I'm done cleaning you wanna help me cook?" She nodded her head smiling widely at me. I smiled back and gave her the materials making her promise not to make a mess. I put on my iPod onto the television speakers and set off to clean.
After about an hour the house was clean and the laundry was in the wash. The only thing left to clean was the living-room which I had saved for last so Claire could paint in peace. I went into the room and seen she had kept to her promise and was painting neat and mess free paintings.
"Alright Claire I gotta clean in here then we can cook so I have to put the art stuff up but you can play on my phone while I clean in here", I said to her, raising my voice over the sound of the music. She nodded her head and I gave her my phone showing her the apps that she could play.
While I was cleaning I began singing loudly hoping that it would make Claire laugh.
"Billie Jean is not my lover, she's just a girl that claims I am the one", I said spinning around and grabbing my crotch like the king of pop always did. Claire giggled while watching me. Her eyes were wide with excitement and my phone lay beside her forgotten.
"She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son", I sang out doing the kick and thrusting my hips in the air with my hand still on my crotch. I seen Claire clapping and squealing in delight. I laughed with her started dancing again belting out the song.
The instrumental part of the song came on and I slid across the floor doing a damn good moonwalk. Claire's eyes widened and her mouth fell open. She stared at me before jumping up and clapping her hands. I took a bow and laughed at her, finishing cleaning the living room.
"Alright Claire wanna help cook now?"
"Yep but pwease do dat ting again?", she asked looking at me with awe in her eyes.
"What thing?", I asked playing stupid. I knew she wanted to see my moonwalk again. Not to seem like I was bragging or anything but I was pretty awesome at the moonwalk. I didn't just dance ballet, it was just the preferred choice.
"Dat ting where you slide across da fwoor", she said trying to get me to understand. I looked at her pretending to ponder it for a moment.
"Oh you mean the moonwalk?", I asked her trying hard to fight a smile.
"Yep! Dat is da one", she said jumping up and down clapping. I laughed at her before turning so she could get a side view. I slide across the floor with my head down slightly pretending to hold a fedora on my head. She laughed like crazy and applauded me. I just shook my head and laughed.
After about an hour and a half we had made a few dozen batches of cookies and some cupcakes that we were going to take to the bonfire. I sent Jake a text saying he didn't have to come get me that I would meet him there. Knowing her would read the text after patrol and that everything was done I led Claire up the stairs and into my room and sat her on my bed.
"Alright girly I have to take a shower so can you sit here and watch a movie while I do that?"
"Yep but you gotta shows me dat walking on da moon ting again", she said looking at me seriously. I just smiled at her and nodded. I put on Hotel Transylvania and headed towards the bathroom. I left both my bedroom and the bathroom door open so I could hear her if she needed me. After washing and shaving I got out and wrapped a towel around me and heading back into my room. Claire was engrossed in the movie so I put on my bra and panties before looking through my drawers and closet for something to wear. I heard a gasp behind me and turned to see Claire looking at me with concerned eyes.
"You have a boo boo like Aunty Emiwy", she said. I wanted to face palm myself when I seen that she was staring at my stomach. Now everyone would know about the damn scar. Claire was going to say something she was a little girl!
"Yeah I got hurt when I was in a car accident a few years ago. It's a scar", I told her running my finger along it. It was pale and contrasted with my brown skin.
"It is fine you are still beautyful", she said to me before jumping up to give me a hug and going to sit back down to finish her movie. I felt tears spring to my eyes. She was so fucking adorable and sweet!
"Thanks Claire", I said, my voice somewhat hoarse from my emotions. I turned back around and decided on a old pair of jeans and my Avengers hoodie. I brushed my hair and put it into a mermaid braid over my shoulder, resting on my breast. I decided against any make up and just put on some chapstick.
"Angie will you do dat to me?", Claire asked pointing to my hair. I smiled at her and patted my knee telling her to come here. I put her hair into two pig tail mermaid braids in front of her chest. I told her she looked beautiful being completely truthful.
"Even when I is in pants and a hwoodie?", she asked me confused.
"You said I was beautiful and I'm in a pair of jeans and a hoodie", I gently reminded her. She nodded her head excepting my answer. I stood up and grabbed her hand and headed down the stairs shutting off the lights and t.v. on our way down. I put all the cookies and cupcakes into a big tote bag and put the crock pot on warm so it would be ready by the time Maw-Maw got there. I wrote a quick note and put it on the counter before going into the living room and getting Claire. With her backpack on she headed out the front door and to my truck. I locked the door and got into the drivers side buckling Claire up and heading down the road.
When we arrived at the bonfire everyone was already there sitting around and laughing. I grabbed the cupcakes and cookies handed Claire the tupperware filled with few cookies and a cupcake she said she wanted to give to Quil, before getting out the truck and locking it. I grabbed her hand and we headed down the beach towards where the group was. It was only five so they hadn't started the fire yet since the sun was out. When we got within sight I seen Leah wave at us calling out.
"Qwuilly!", Claire screamed before dropping my hand and running towards him. He opened his arms in time to catch her when she jumped. She giggled and gave him a kiss on the cheek before settling in his lap. I walked over to where Jacob was at calling me over. He pulled me into his lap and kissed me gently.
"I missed you", he murmured in my ear.
"I missed you too", I said getting a whiff of his scent which got me a little warm like it always did. I giggled when he nipped at my ear and his breath tickled my neck.
"Thanks for babysitting Claire Anelica", Emily said to me. I looked at her and smiled widely.
"The pleasure's mine we had fun today didn't we Claire?" Everyone looked over at Claire to see what her response was. She just smiled widely and bounced a little on Quil's lap.
"Yep we had bunches of fun today. I colored and den Angie sang and walked on da moon! Den we's cooked cookie and cupcakes and I watcheded a new movie! And looks Angie dids bwaids!", Claire exclaimed happily. Everyone laughed at her enthusiasm before Paul looked at her with a questioning gaze.
"Wait she walked on the moon?"
"Yep she walked on da moon! It was cwool!", she said. Paul looked at me still not grasping what she was trying to explain.
"I showed her the moonwalk Paul", I deadpanned. His face turned into an understanding one and he nodded.
"I wanna see", Leah said suddenly. I shook my head at her but smiled trying not to seem like I wouldn't ever show her.
"Maybe another day since this is sand and I shouldn't over do it since I don't want my knee to hurt", I said. Everyone looked kind of disappointed but nodded nonetheless. I seen Claire give Quil the cookies and cupcake saying she made them special for him.
"Hey! How come we don't get any cookies", Jacob said looking at me and pouting. A few days ago Jacob had told me he loved my cooking and since then every time I cook he always wants some. I went into the tote bag and pulled out some cookies for Jacob before handing the bag to Emily telling her she could distribute them when her and the other people who didn't turn into wolves got some.
After about two hours the fire was going and we were getting ready to start the stories. I was snuggled against Jacobs chest with his arms around my waist, rubbing patterns onto my sides while whispering sweet nothings into my ear. I giggled when he nipped at my ear again and tilted my head back to give him a sweet kiss. Just as Billy was about to begin speaking a voice sounded from behind us making everyone turn around.
"Jacob, I need to talk to you!", the female voice exclaimed. All the guys growled in annoyance and I squinted my eyes to see the person better. When the person came closer to the fire I could see better them better. It was a girl with brown hair. Recognition hit me and I pulled my lip back slightly and scowled.
It was that Beth bitch from Forks.
