Bella woke up the next morning anxious over what this day would bring. She knew she had to face Edward but she found herself wanting to run away as far as possible from him. She got up and got dressed and headed downstairs. Charlie patrol car was gone so he must have gone to work already. She could not stomach breakfast, she was too nervous about today and seeing all the Cullen's again. She picked up an apple and headed for her car, hoping today would not go as bad as she thought it might. On her way out to the car she heard her phone beep. She checked it and smiled, a message from Jake, just saying his name or thinking about him always brought a smile to her e breakfast. she heard her phone beep so she checked her phone to see a new message;

FROM JACOB : Hey beautiful

Bonfire at the first beach at 7 o'clock just bring yourself, you promised you'd be there.

love Jake

Bella went to reply to him but someone knocked on her door so went to open it to reveal Edward standing there. She rolled her eyes that did not go unnoticed by Edward. What had got into his Bella?

"Are you ready to go? I thought i would drive you today? spend a bit of time together before school?" Edward asked her with a smile.

"Sure let me just grab my bag from the back" she said in a worry voice. They both got in the car but Edward tensed he could smell a wolf. Edward looked at Bella, realising she was covered in the smell tensed his fingers on the steering wheel. He would find out the truth , Nothing and NO ONE would take his Bella away from him especially not the Mangy mutts. He would keep Bella away at all costs!

Bella was silence the whole ride to school but Edward tried to make a conversation but to stopped when he realised that Bella was going to talk but she didn't and by that time they'd had arrived at school. Edward realised something was wrong with Bella, never ever has she felt so distant from him as she does now. He needed to speak to his family, they needed to solve this. He could not loose Bella, she was his no body else's. He watched Bella get out of the car and expected her to wait for him but he watched as she walked over to her friends Angela and Jessica. Ignoring Edward she carried on into school. Edward thought to himself ' i need to find Alice she must have seen something'. Edward stormed off into school to find Alice. Bella looked back pleased that she had at least survived the journey to school. She could now focus on her plan to avoid the rest of the cullens.

Bella ignored Edward and his siblings all though Alice attempted to speak to her she would avoid any long conversation or purely walk in the opposite direction and pretend like she had not heard her. Before she knew it school finished for the day, much to her relieve she had watched the Cullen's leave. Edward hovered around but left when there was no site of Bella. Bella looked up at the sky, great she thought to herself. She'd have to walk home in the rain. Hopefully it is a small shower?

She started to walk home i her own little world when she heard a motor bike pull over next to her so she stopped and looked at the driver her hadn slowly going down to find her pepper spray. She looked up to to see it was Paul.

"Hey Paul you scared me, er what are you doing this side of town?" Bella said to him, looking over his bike with admiration. Maybe the thrill of actually riding one. She has always wanted to but Charlie would kill her if he ever found out.

"Hey Bella" Paul said to her with a smile. He always has s certain smile for Bella, like for most other girls its a sexy seductive smile, they are putty in his hands. With me, it is a caring sincere smile. I liked to see this side of Paul, away from the pack he was a different person caring and considerate. But nothing beats Jacobs smile... What was she thinking?

''Jacob ordered me to come and get you he sensed that you may be in a need for a ride, plus one of his mates were on patr...driving buy with his dad and saw you, so he rang Jake and Jake asked me to come and pick you up. He did not want you get ill for the bonfire later." Paul informed her

"I can't I have to get home to cook for my dad" Bella told him

''That's Fine but you owe me some of the famous muffins, just for me none for the rest of the pigs, just me! if we have a deal i will drop you off at yours and tell Jake you will be by later? Do we have a deal?" Paul looked at Bella with puppy dogs eyes begging her to take the deal.

''Deal!'' Bella said with the biggest smile on her face, the first smile true smile she had all day. She spent most the day stressed avoiding the cullens, it was nice juts to relax and laugh with friends.

''Alrighty then, climb on your carriage awaits princess.'' Paul told her as he put his helmet on and drive off.

Paul dropped Bella at home and she got on and started making pasta for dinner and then started making her famous muffins for Paul. Once there were done. Bella put the muffins in a cake tin. She left her dad a note

Dad

Gone to La push for the bonfire don't stay up. I may crash over at a friends house, so left you food for your lunch tomorrow.

Love You old man

Bella

She started to drive to La push. instead of going to Sam and Emily's house she went to first beach. She arrived to the beach to see that everyone was there for the bonfire.

Bella looked around and saw Paul talking to Jared and Sam so she went over to them with the cake tins with muffins inside. She just got to them as two strong arms came around her waist

"Here you go Paul my famous muffins you asked for, just for you" Bella said to him as she hand the over to him . Paul smiled the biggest grin ever and seemed very proud he'd got Bella's muffins and no one else. Embry looked Jealous, Bella's muffin were the best.

"Thanks Bella" he said to her as he ate was then chased by Embry and Jared who both were desperate to have one, Paul would not share so they ran down the beach after him. Bella laughed then she turned round to see who was holding her round her waist. She knew who it was the instant he put his arms round her waist. She did not know why but she felt immediately warm and safe... the warmest and happiest she had been all day.

"Hey Jacob" Bella said to him

"Hey Beautiful Bella, come with me you can sit by me, they are about to start, you cold, i will keep you warm, come on. we do not bite." he said to her with a smile on his face

''Speak for yourself Jake'' Paul shouted out laughing.

"Ok everyone settle down" Bella heard Mr Black say to them. So Bella sat down as Jacob sat down behind her.

They were told about the legends, Bella loved listening to the tribes stories, she knew it was a Tribal secret there heritage and they never had outsiders at the bonfires, so why her? why now? Little did she know her question was about to be answered.

"I can't believe that they were real" Bella said to them

"Yes their are real Bella, you seem to be taking the news that we turn into wolves and your boyfriend and his family are Cold ones?'' Sam said looking at her questioningly like he was waiting for he to react and go off on one at them... but it never came... it is like realization she knew ever since Jacob imprinted that something as not right. Yes imprinting, they had yet to tell her about that one. He looked at his son, who was slowly unravelling he knew Jake needed Bella to be told about the imprinting so his wolf didn't feel a threat. Sam looked at Billy Black who nodded and looked back at Bella.

''Bella there is something else we need to talk to you about. What do you know about imprinting?'' Bella looked at Sam, she had no clue what he was on about. Jacob's hold seemed to grip on her like she'd run away.

''Imprinting?... What's that?'' Bella asked.

"It's like a wolf finding the soul mate.. you be anything for her like a brother, friend or boyfriend.. you look into her eyes and you will know" Sam explained imprinting to her

"Why are you telling this to me this" Bella asked him as she felt Jacob face go in between her neck

"you are Jacob imprint Bella" Sam said as he watched her to see if she runs away.

"WHAT I CAN'T I HAVE A BOYFRIEND" Bella screamed out as she stood up but to get pulled back down on to Jacob lap as he wolf was on the surface that Bella tried to runway.

Sam and the pack watched as Jacob moved her hair out of the way to expose her neck to him "NO JACOB" the pack shouted as they realised what he was going to do but it was too late.

Jacob whined and bit down on her neck.

Bella screamed and past out.
