EJ's POV
I don't think I can even piece together a sentence to say how I feel right now, when I saw my sister distraught like that, all exposed ARGH Edward-Jacob this isn't you, you're the one that always has a positive outlook on everything, Sofia has Masen she will be okay. I sighed in relief which seemed to make my siblings and the pack raise their head to me; we were at the moment standing outside my grandparents' house. Leah was the first to speak. "You okay EJ?" I looked at the beautiful angel before me I tried to even avoid the thought that what if it was Leah like that, how would I react, I'd probably go insane but I don't think any mugger, mass murderer would ever try to cross Leah Clearwater.
"Nothing sweetie I was just trying to see this in a positive light you know me I don't want to linger on the negative at the moment it's not going so well!" I shook my head and then Ness came and gave me a hug. "I know EJ, I don't think anyone saw this coming, but you know what, before the ''camping trip'' let's just enjoy this time with our imprints besides Sofia and Mase are no doubt at the woodland anyway!" I smiled at my big sister's wisdom she's right and right on cue Seth decided to pipe up. "Okay can someone PLEASE explain to me what this woodland is, everyone is talking about it and I have no clue" Lizzie, myself and Ness laughed at the packs confusion, Leah laughed as well shaking her head at her brother.
"It's a place on the border of Canada… don't worry Joham wouldn't find them, the place is that secluded that it would take them a long time to discover it, the trees are that big and that tight together that there's a specific route you'd have to take, I personally haven't been myself but Mase goes there to find peace it's become their special place like, yours an Lizzie's lake" Seth smiled widely Lizzie giggled and blushed deeply.
I wanted to spend as much time as I could with my lee-lee but I realised that none of us had spent any time together for the longest time and I think Jake was feeling the same way. "You know we haven't really spent time together we've done things separately we should all go cliff diving how does that sound?" I was jumping up and down in excitement heck yeah.
I love cliff diving it was always awesome Leah always hated it when I just run off the cliff edge and jump she'd always freak out and jump in after me to be honest I always found it funny, I always did it when I was at the age of 14 Jake, Seth and Leah toke myself, Ness and Liz to the cliffs Nessie asked if we could all cliff dive but they all said no and really Leah is really stubborn Liz and Ness were in a tall tree and refused to come down until they said yes whereas I on the other hand just randomly jumped off which gave Leah the utmost heart attack and jumped in after me but that wasn't the worst part she scolded my ass after but it was totally worth it.
As I was brought out my thoughts everyone seemed excited Embry and Quill needed to say something. "Err Jake me and Quill are going to head off and see Mary and Claire we'll see you at patrols" Jake nodded "Ok guys be on your guard those hybrids are still out there" That was an alpha order and they nodded and soon disappeared into the forest and phased. Seth was then hyping up just as much as me and took words our my mouth.
"COME ON cliff diving time!" everyone laughed Leah then punched Jake's shoulder "Yeah come on black I want to kick your ass again cause if you remember I jumped further than you!" Leah loved rubbing her victory in Jake's face that's my Leah. Jake on the other hand he growled and rolled his eyes. "Whatever Clearwater I let you win plain and simple I mean you're a girl after all I just wanted to minor the blow" Uh-oh! I looked at Leah and she looked like she was going to go for him so to distract her I decided to use the one thing that always turns her into mush I put on the softest tone to my voice I grabbed her arm and put her in my hold she gasped and she looked infatuated by my presence "Leah sweetheart don't bite back" It was the softest tone I could muster and Leah's whole body must have turned to mush she just stared at me I did my side smile and she literally crashed her lips into mine I ran my hand through her short hair.
While we was having our little moment I forgot that everyone was here and they were laughing their heads off which came to the point that Nessie cleared her throat and tapped Leah's shoulder. Leah shot out my arms and spun round as she was startled. "When you are quite finished munching my brother's face but I really want to go cliff diving" Leah laughed in embarrassment and nodded. "Sorry ness, okay let's get this show on the road were heading to yours aren't we Jake?" Jake laughed and nodded. "Yeah unless you're planning to cliff dive naked!" I burst out laughing but my mind started to sin, I stared at Leah … visualising her.. Naked! Her beautiful figure, AH! EJ stop!.
"Erm.. Are we running or going in a car?" Everyone thought for a second until Jake and Seth launched into the forest guess were running Leah stared at me with an evil smile me and Leah always draw no matter how quick were both are I didn't even give my sisters a chance to talk i managed to catch up with Seth and Jake with them in their wolf forms I could feel Leah behind me which caused me to increase my speed I was laughing and having such a good time that I almost hit a tree but it didn't matter the trees would be injured not me, my sister Ness was too close behind me until I saw my lee-lee rocket launch straight past me and soon enough all of us arrived outside Jake's house.
Myself and my sisters were all cheering. "That was awesome, I nearly had you EJ" I laughed at ness and gave her a hug unlike Mase I don't rub it in people's faces. "Next time sis you may have a chance to beat me!" Nessie giggled and kissed my cheek, Liz vaulted onto my back like she used to do when we was kids. Lizzie was laughing so loud that it caused a commotion i started to spin lizzie round in a circle like I used to do she used to grip the sides of my face while she leaned back and let the wind whip her hair and we'd both be laughing until I got super dizzy and fall on the floor.
Me and Liz were on the floor trying to control our laughing fits while Ness and the wolves were crowding us, when in front of us was… GRANDPA CHARLIE! I and Liz gasped while he just looked down to us with his wrinkly smile. "GRANDPA!" I and Liz shouted at the same time we both sat up and launched into his arms he fell back a bit but he didn't fall. He chuckled and wrapped us in his embrace tight. "Hey! How are my grandson and granddaughter doing! Were a grandson and a granddaughter short! Where is Nessie and Masen?" Nessie made her presence known.
"I'm here grandpa Mase is with Sofia." MOTHER OF GOD! Grandpa doesn't know… this is going to be so awkward. Grandpa nodded "Alice came by to pick up Masen & Sofia's stuff it's not like them to not say goodbye to us. Do you know when they will call me?" Liz looked at me in horror I gulped and I think that anxiety transferred to him.
"Ok guys truthfully what happened? And why aren't you all at school? Did you guys finish early?" I sighed heavily I can't lie to him he'll know one way or another. "Ok grandpa I'm not going to lie to you … but! Something bad did happen… with Sofia.. the reason why were early is because at lunch time there was a spot of bother between our friend Alyssa and two guys Conner Newton and Brett Jackson-" Grandpa Charlie interrupted with a hint of fear in his eyes. "EJ did you say Conner Newton?" I nodded with confusion in my voice he shook his head and started to pace up and down everyone seemed confused Nessie sounded concerned. "Grandpa what do you know?" I didn't notice that Billy and Sue were here they were behind grandpa just as concerned as everyone was. Grandpa stopped pacing and looked at all of us.
"Conner Newton used to live in forks with the rest of the newton family when your mother used to live with me; she was friends with his cousin Mike Newton… But ever since I can remember just at the age of 13 he was always at the station for various reasons, violence, joyriding, shop lifting he had so many cautions he was kept overnight in the cell and when he hit the age of 16 that's when he became the most out of control, he got caught selling pot, he was then done for sexual harassment against 3 girls in his class and even on a teacher.
But then one report just confirmed that he wasn't right, he... Raped 6 girl's ages varying from 13-19 years of age. We couldn't keep him in control and he had an ultimatum it was either he get sent down for all the rape charges or he does community service and he moved to port Angeles and live with his grandparents with contact with the police and social services once every month" I think everyone just froze at that moment for what we were hearing it was then that I felt confident to just say it outright.
"GRANDPA! He raped Sofia!" Grandpa Charlie froze at that point. "WHAT! He raped her? That son of a. I'm going to go round Carlisle's so that someone can explain to me. I need to talk to Sofia so I can fully understand the situation; I'm going to make sure that bastard gets sent down!" With that said I think it was safe to say that grandpa Carlisle was right we need a ''camping trip'' things are just getting so out of control.. But I have confidence that if we stick together as a family we can get through it.
Grandpa and Sue were gone which was only Billy here he had a look of pure worry Lizzie went to go and comfort him. "Hey Billy don't worry with grandpa helping us Sofia is going to be alright!" Billy chuckled and hugged Lizzie back. "I am confident that Charlie will do all he can to do everybody justice!" Billy smiled and then right on cue.. for some strange reason all of Sam's pack is here… this is going to be interesting, i think out of all that pack Jared and Sam are the only ones that are civil with me and my family, Paul, Colin and Brady are the ones that still have an issue.
and out loud Paul shouted. "Great what are all the leech lovers and half leeches doing here!" that name doesn't really bother me, but it still affects Ness and Liz which caused Nessie to shout at Paul back. "What the hell is your problem! What have we done that's so bad for you to hate us so much myself and my brothers and sister have proved we aren't dangerous I thought we was all past this, call us what you want but don't take out your hatred on people that you used to be so close with, how can you go from being best friends to loathing these 3 amazing people!" Colin growled at Nessie then Paul laughed Sam was in protective stances in front of his pack and Jake did the same Billy was in the middle of us and an odd line formed on either side. Lizzie looked at me with confusion as did i. then Paul spoke rather calmly.
"You know.. Renesmee.. Your right.." I think everyone at that point was either confused and there was protests going on with Colin and Brady. Sam calmed his stance… I think we're getting somewhere at least. "I'm not man of many words.. I admit I've never liked you Cullen's, and I don't do this often but we came together once to beat those leeches I think we can do it again, Jake man! I miss you… though I see you half of the days when I'm at your house." Everyone apart from Colin and Brady who had stormed off were laughing then everyone started hugging each other aside from Leah and Sam.. I know what happened between them.. Leah doesn't really like to talk about it but I just think some good can come of this.
"Leah.. Sam! I think you two.. should let bygones be bygones your both have special people in your life whatever happened in the past is in the past, you can't spend the rest of your lives dwindling on what happened especially you Leah.. no offence Sam, but though he had hurt you really badly again no offence Sam!" Sam nodded. Leah was dying to protest but I put my finger against her lip.
"Let me speak. Though he imprinted on Emily Leah but.. You're not alone anymore; I always remembered your face when I discovered something amazing your eyes would light up, the way you looked at me. You have found someone special Leah, and I know you hold back thinking you're going to get hurt again but I'm not like anybody else, I am your imprint I am with you for life! Which is all the more reason to make up with Sam. You can put that part of your past behind you and start fresh! Here and now!"
Leah looked completely stuck for words I smiled sweetly at her, she smiled with love back she kissed my cheek and nodded I looked at Sam he smiled and stepped forward no-one dared to say a thing. "Lee- I mean Leah... I am so sorry… for how things had went between us.. Believe me i-" Leah cut him off with a hug. "Sam. It's okay! There's no need to explain I can understand what you mean the bond is too strong you can't help who you fall for. I know that now. Emily is you imprint you love her, and Edward-Jacob is mine! And I love him so much! Which is why I'm willing to make a fresh start and be friends!" Sam smiled happily and gave her a tight hug.
Everyone was cheering FINALLY things have settled down I didn't even notice Embry and Quill were here with their imprints apart from Claire who is obviously at school the school here in La Push finish early., in fact all of the imprints were here I checked the time and it was only 3.00 the weather seemed decent enough anyway. Emily was smiling at everyone Rachel, Kim, Yokie and Nina were all here and were gossiping they were all screaming when they saw Nessie, lizzie and Leah … girls!. Rachel rushed over.
"NESSIE, LIZZIE Omg it's been forever I am not happy with you two, I'm beginning to think you've forgotten us! We need a good catch up!" Nessie giggled. "Rachel how can I forget you all! We've missed you guys too.. Wait, where is Rebecca?" Rachel smiled and giggled. "She's gone back to Arizona to sort out things with her husband things haven't gone well she'll be back next week" Us guys all started to moan Billy announced that he is going inside to watch the rest of the game before long the guys were wanting to go until Seth said "Are we still going cliff diving?" All the guys stopped and were cheering.
"OH YES! Now that is music to my ears hey your pack against our pack whoever can do the most tricks before they hit the water WINS!" Jake smiled widely and toke Jared's bet. "You're so ON!" Quill cheered. "Come on then let's go, girls are you coming with?" The girls decided to tag along but were going to sit on the beach apart from Leah she wanted to come with us. It was a 15 minute walk from here to the cliffs some of the guys were going to walk when others were going to squeeze in Sam's truck.
