Home-Lillian
OW! I yelped as I closed my finger on the car door. “DAMN, DAMN, DAMN OWWWWWW!”
Everyone and I mean everyone across the reservations school grounds starred. “Great” I whispered to myself sarcastically. Haven’t been back in two years, and I already found a way to embarrass myself. I wasn’t really looking आगे to my first दिन back; considering I was now of age to attend high school against my will. O well, only one and a half years to go I thought. At least I had College to look आगे too. And even better, being back to my फ्रेंड्स and family.
I pulled my long black hair back into a टट्टू tail as I observed everyone at the school I was soon to e attending. Everyone looked the same. I felt a little out of place when I looked in my pocket mirror I pulled out of my purse. I had my hair cut in layers just before I came. It still hung long down my back, the blackest shade of black. My sleek slanted eyes had a pretty shade of purple eye shadow I had bought to compliment the purple sundress, सुन्दरता I had on my russet colored skin. I can’t believe I wore wedges. Now my feet were going to hurt. I really looked out of place now. Especially compared to the jeans and T-shirts I use to wear when I ran around the reservation fields with my brother Paul and his फ्रेंड्स years ago.
Believe it या not, a small portion of me was excited to be back. Moving from La Push to California stripped a big part of my heritage away from me. I was glad to be back to the birthplace of my roots. No matter how far I distanced myself; the Indian blood would never cease to flow in my veins. I was proud, and was glad to see my grandma Lillian along with my brother Paul. I’m pretty sure I missed a lot considering my 2 साल absence. I came to visit often as I could, and though it was expensive to fly clear across the country I still made a point to visit for every holiday and birthday. My brother Paul was और than a brother to me, और like a best friend. I wish he was the only reason I came back. My eyes watered as I thought of worst night of my life. The phone call, the sirens, and the stretcher…
“Lily!” screamed Paul as he ran fast across the campus arms open to me. “Paul! You’ve gotten so BIG!” And he had. I mean a lot bigger. He had to be about 6’3 with broad shoulders, and very precise cut muscles. Had I really been gone that long? He looked about 5 years older than his age. I was in slight shock when he hugged me so tight that I realized I couldn’t breathe. “Wow आप look HUGE!” I कहा again in disbelief. My baby brother is all grown up now. That means I have to hear countless stories of puberty and girlfriends now. Ugh. “How have u been Lily? Everyone so excited to see you. We throwing a big par-“He cut off his sentence looking disappointed in his self. Paul could never keep secrets. It reminded me all the times he got me in trouble when we were little when he couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Still the same. I laughed to myself with this thought. “Its okay Paul I will act surprised for you. How is everyone though? Where’s Quil, and Embry. And Sam! And Jacob!.” Paul was so happy to see me, I don’t even think he heard any of my questions. He was already busy unpacking my things from the taxi and लोडिंग them into his pickup truck. I giggled and went to help him just to discover he already had everything unpacked.
La push looked almost exactly like I remembered it. The trees still toward high over the reservation. The समुद्र तट was exactly the same. Everything still so beautiful and relaxing. It was home, and was everything I looked आगे to reuniting with. I eyed the shops and bonfires as we passed La pushes busiest sites near the town. As soon as we started getting deeper in the woods, I knew we were almost home. I could finally see my grandmother Lillian-whom I was named after. Granma Lillian and I were always close, no matter how far I was physically. And though she was blind, I felt like she saw and knew everything . She was और than wise, and everyone came to her for advice. She made everyone’s दिल smile. And than I thought of all the boys- Quill, Embry, Jake, Seth. I couldn’t wait to see them, and I knew they felt the same. To most, I was like a big sister to them as well…though to some I was just a major crush that Paul didn’t look आगे to facing every day. He would always come घर from school dirty from wrestling with Jake and Embry when they made jokes of me being there future wife. Good times.
I approached the dark केबिन trying to put a look of enthusiasm and surprise on my face for Paul. He looked at me and winked as he approached the door knob. I nodded my head giving him the okay to open the door. I didn’t have to pretend to much as everyone yelled surprise from the चोटी, शीर्ष of there lungs. I was so happy to be home, the look on my face couldn’t be और satisfying. The first person I saw was Emily open arms. I tucked myself into her tight arms with tears in my eyes. “Oh Emily! I was so excited to see everyone. Especially Emily. She was always like a सेकंड mother to me…after… “Lill!” Another two tight hugs emerged from behind Emily. Quill and Embry looked a lot और taller than Paul. They were also tall and thick with toned muscles. They looked so big. “ Quill, Embry! Hugging them back. “ Omg where is Jake, Sam and Seth?” I asked. “There in the back about to bring out आप cake. We took a lot preparation to make this a special birthday for you, being back in La push. Your grandma Lillian fixed a huge feast to.” Answered Quill with a sly smile on his face. I laughed to myself as him and Embry looked me up and down with big smiles on their face. आप can tell they were trying not to blush.
And Oh yea…It was my birthday. I had completely forgot with all the excitement of being home. It took me about an घंटा to get around to all my hellos and happy birthdays from my family and friends. I finnaly saw Sam, who looked 6 times bigger than Quil, Embry and Paul. I exchanged hugs with everyone द्वारा the time they decided to bring out my cake. It was a big चॉकलेट cake with the words Happy birthday Lilly written in bright pink. I blew out the candles after everyone song our tribes version of happy birthday. That’s when I noticed Jacob.
“Jacob!” I screamed his name so loud everyone in the room stopped what they were doing to look. I grabbed him as hard as I can even though I wasn’t able to लपेटें my arms even half way around his body. He was also equivalent to the sizes that Quill and Embry were. He was manlier than I remember, and a lot और hotter too. I mean the heat hot. Yea he was hotter, as in good look to though…His hair was shaggy in a cute way untidily on his head. He wore a tight white tee कमीज, शर्ट that showed every muscle in his body. He was so cut, and very ….handsome. His jaw and his broad shoulders, made him look so much older than 17.
I had wondered if I scared him with the greeting I gave him when I saw his face. He stared at me for a long time, and then smiled the best smile I have ever seen. I knew I always liked Jacob better than everyone else. When we were younger we use to make mud pies together. Me him and that Bella girl…We were always close. We were like partners in crime. Though I never looked at him this way I found myself doing. After all for some strange reason I seemed to be और excited to see him than anyone else.
“How have आप been chump? What’s been going on I know आप have tons to tell me. Ive brought all of आप presents back from Cali too. आप still work on cars? Ive got an gift_” he cut me off from my babbling with the same bone crunching hug the other boys gave me. But his hug was so much और gentle. Like he was embracing me. And it was comfortable…
“Okay, Awkward “whispered Quill to Embry with a smirk on his face. “Wait till Paul gets a load of this.” Embry smiled back “damn too bad, I would have liked her to be mine.” The two laughed a loud barking laugh and walked out into the living room. “Hey Lily!” Jake finally answered. “ Its so nice to see आप to bighead. आप look great! “A small blush on his russet colored his cheeks emerged. I giggled a nervous laugh. For some reason for the first time I didn’t know what to say around Jacob. We always laughed and joke together. Even if I stayed gone for 3 या four years at a time, we would always pick up where we left off. So why did everything seem so different now? I knew he always had a kindergarten crush on me…but I never thought a moment would come like this.
“Thanks Jake. आप too. आप look great. And so big. I swear all of आप guys had the same growth spurt. Where is Billy?”
“Oh he’s coming. He’s in the back getting your present ready. So whats new? आप went from tom boy to Miss चोटी, शीर्ष Model huh? “ कहा Jacob. The light blush returned his dark cheeks as he stared me up and down. “Well when आप live in California for a couple of years fashion really grows on you” I smiled back. “But im still the same Lilly in the inside. Just dying to go swimming, and dirt biking in the woods.” I than noticed my cheeks getting a little hotter. I must have been blushing too. I never looked at Jacob in this light before. It was so new to me, and unexpected. Embarrassed when I saw that Jacob noticed the color in my cheeks I excused myself to the living room. Oddly enough, he followed me.
Granma Lilly was emerged in one of her tales about our tribe to all of the kids in a circle. I had heard all of them when I was younger. I could only imagine how there imaginations carried them into the wild legends and tales as they did with mine. I asked Granma Lily to tell the stories over and over that I remembered every tale word for word. I was fascinated that they were about the origins of our tribes. Even though some of them were about सूपरनॅचुरल things like werewolves, and blood suckers. I never really believed those parts but they were very entertaining. “Ah Lilly”, Granma Lilly stopped and held her hand out to me “ im so excited that your back. I was just telling the little ones your प्रिय tales. Are आप enjoying your party?” “ Of course Granma!” I sat on the edge of her सीट “ this is the best party I have ever been to. Im so glad to be home. Everyone had grown so much. The boys! They are all huge now. And I can tell Paul is really happy im back. .” “ Lilly!” Billy appreared out of the kitchen. Your present is ready!” he looked so happy. I can tell it was something I really was going to like, considering Billy was in the रसोई, रसोईघर for practically the whole party. I got up and helped Granma lilly out her सीट to guide her t the रसोई, रसोईघर with me. I peeked around the corner and found myself looking at something fury hiding under the table. I heard a soft bark, and it scooted from under the तालिका, टेबल on to my foot. “Oh My GOD! A puppy! Its so cute! Oh my God thanks Billy! Thanks Jacob!” who stood staring at me with that warm smile he shown before. Wow, it made me a little weak at the knees. “ We would have दिया it to आप sooner but my dad wanted to groom it a little. He was really shaggy.” Jacob कहा petting the little कुत्ते का बच्चा, पिल्ला on his nose. He was so cute. He resembled a little wolf. Furry and light grey with white spots. He cuddled in my arms and hid his face under my shirt. I was in प्यार with him already. It was द्वारा far the best birthday gift I have ever gotten.
“What should I name him? “ I asked without taking my eyes off of my new puppy. “ I think आप should name him Billy Jr.” smiled Billy. I giggled at Billy as I sat the कुत्ते का बच्चा, पिल्ला down. I think ill ask Paul. Speaking of Paul…”Where is Paul? I havnt seen him since the party really started.” I looked at Billy for an answer , and saw a funny look on his face. “Err um…I’ll go see where he is for आप Lilly. Be right back.” Billy disappeared behind the grey doors to the patio. Where could my brother have disappeared to , and missed the whole party that he threw me? What could be और important? Than a little hint of anger came over me as I stomped my way out to the patio to investigate. As soon as I stepped outside I started to hear yelling. “ My sister though Jake! How could you, would आप like it if I did took a go at Rachel?” roared Paul. A deep sound that sounded like a growl came from his inner throat. I couldn’t see to clearly from hiding behind the side pole. I didn’t want them to stop talking when they saw me. So I guess I was right. Jake did have a crush on me. Buts what’s so bad about it? I could see myself with Jake. He was handsome as ever, and a great person. I guess Paul couldn’t just get over the fact that his best friend wants his sister. Hmm classic. “Come on Paul. आप know we cant help who we….” Jake cut off in mid sentence and I felt his deep cut eyes staring at me from behind the pole. How did he see या hear me? I was barely breathing. I stepped out from behind the pole and noticed that Quill and Embry were holding Paul द्वारा his arms. Billy gazed at me than at the both of them. He wheeled off laughing to hiself.
“So, आप guys decided to engage in a whole conversation about my where abouts huh? What the hell is goin on. And Quill why are u guys holding Paul back from Jake?”
“Well आप see-“ Jake started. But Paul cut him off
“Nothin Lilly go back inside and enjoy your party”. He let himself free from Quill and Embry’s grasp and flew into the kitchen. Quill and Embry laughed to themselves mumbling furiously as they entered the house behind him. This left Jacob and I alone again.
“So whats is going on Jake? Why is Paul so upset? I haven’t seen him for most of the party” I asked. I found myself to be a little nervous around Jake now. This was akward considering I never would thought I would ever stumble over my words with him.
“Well, it’s hard to explain right now. Ill explain it later.” He had a half smile and half frown on his face. Could it really be that bad I thought?
“Alright. Well I want to thank आप again for the party and the gift. It’s the best present I have ever gotten. Im not to sure on what to name him though. Im kind of drawing a blank.” It was so hard to concentrate on what I was saying when I noticed that way that Jacob was looking at me. It was warm and comforting. I couldn’t help but to feel uncomfortable.
I guess Jake noticed. “Its fine. Don’t mention it.” Than came his smile. I felt myself get weak in the knees. “Anything for you. We all missed आप so much Lilly. It’s good to know आप cant stay away from the Quilletes that long huh. हे if your not doing anything tomorrow want to head to the समुद्र तट to catch up?”
I thought about how mad Paul was. And how he might be upset with me. But than I thought हे im grown.
“Sure sounds like a plan chump. Ill meet आप around 5 so I can have some time to rest from that long trip. Again thanks for everything” I reached to give him a hug. His arms embraced me once again like he had before. I felt so comfortable. And almost didn’t want to let go. I started to walk into the house when I turned around to say “Hey jake, आप should come inside and cool down your burning up”. But he had already vanished.
Paul didn’t talk to me for the rest of the night. I wondered if he had figured out about Jake and I’s date. Was it a date? Okay I definelty needed to slow myself down. But why was Paul so upset? I thought that he was being way to stubborn. When the party cleared out I found my way to my old room. Everything was exactly the same. I threw my bags in the corner of the room. I was way to tired to unpack now. I grabbed my unnamed कुत्ते का बच्चा, पिल्ला and laid him on my lap. He was fast asleep before I knew it. My thoughts wondered as stared at the cabins ceiling. I thought about my फ्रेंड्स and family. I thought about the lovely party they threw me. I thought about ….Jacob. I turned on my side and saw a shadow fly across my room. I didn’t really think nothing of it because I was entirely too tired to get scared. I closed my eyes hoping I could have a dreamless night. I preyed for guardian एंन्जल्स to wacth over us as I did every night like my grandma Lillian always told me to. Funny enough, I could actually feel their eyes watching me.
Surprise- Jacob
It was getting late. I better head घर to check on Billy.
Well, well, well today was filled with surprises. And I damn sure wasn’t looking आगे to getting back to the pack to hear Paul’s mouth again. He should have known that we can’t help who we imprint. So why was he so mad that it was his sister? He knows I will never hurt her. He knows I will प्यार her forver….but he was so damn stubborn. I had ton convince him it would be okay. I ran off the ledge of her window and started heading into the forest. I wanted to stay and wacth her sleep the whole night. Once आप imprinted someone it was so hard to stay away from them. Of course I already knew this seeing how Paul can never stay away from Kelsey. At least I imprinted someone that’s already my age I laughed to myself. And damn..i forgot I was in भेड़िया form when I heard Sam and Quill laugh at this thought.
Your right Jake. Paul could hardly talk his self. He’s in प्यार with a 4 साल old!
Ah shuttup Quill. आप know its not that kind of प्यार yet. Anwyay Jake, Paul would like to hold a pack meeting tonite at the clearing. Sam told me. I threw out every cuss word possible.
Ah fine. I really didn’t feel like fighting Paul tonite but I knew this is what it would come to. I wont hurt him…that bad. I smiled to myself. After all Paul was one of my best friends. Better Lilly be with me than some creep right? Deep down I knew that Paul knew I would treat her like my everything. I guess its just the fact it was his sister that upsets him. He was always so protective of her since their mother died. So I decided I would take it easy on him. I smiled again
The clearing bore no lights when I got there. The only light was the moonlight gazing between the tall tress. When I approached the pack everyone was there except for Paul.
Soooo Leah smirked. She was still a pain in the ass. And I couldn’t get rid of her. Shame. What is this I hear about Jacob imprinting Lilly? Already? Jake shes been back for 4 hours. And what makes आप think she wants you! She barked with an annoying laugh. I ignored her considering the fact Paul was somewhere listening.
Can it Leah. At least I found someone आप idiot. Anway what is this about? Paul where are you.
Im here. I turned around to find Paul in his भेड़िया form. I expected him to be crouched ready to attack. But he looked calm.
This meeting isn’t about आप and Lilly. Jake we would discuss that later. But it is about Lilly. Do any of आप know the real reason why we decided to bring Lilly back?
Eveveryone shook their heads and looked around the circle.
आप brought her back so आप could tell her about us right? To tell her that the legends were true? Seth answered. Seth has definelty gotten bigger since the last time I saw him. Finnaly startin to catch up to the rest of the pack.
Well yes part of it. Well as आप know we sent her away so she wouldn’t have to have our fate. We thought that if she wasn’t around any bloodsuckers we wouldn’t have to worry about her changing.
So why would आप bring her back here with the Cullens still here? I asked. I had forgetten all about that. The one last thing I didn’t really want Lilly to do was to turn to one of us. We had always hoped it would skip the female generation. But Leah proved otherwise.
Tell me about it. Leah कहा पढ़ना my thoughts.
Well आप see its और difficult now. Paul answerd. He was starting to look और concerned now. Before we decided to bring Lilly back Grandmother Lillian came to me. She showed me newpaper लेखाए about killing in Callabass where Lilly was staying. She कहा it was bloodsuckers. I asked her how she was so sure, and she कहा she had a vision. She कहा with Lilly around she would turn with their presences. Without knowing of her fate. Like we all did. Except she would have no one to guide her. Like Sam. So we had to bring her back. At least so she can turn with our help.
I could read Paul’s face now filled with sorrow. He phased back to his human self and collapsed on the ground with his head in between his legs. We all phased back with him. Lilly was going to turn into one of us? I could never imagine this with her being gone so long. I couldn’t bare it. I felt like Paul now. The last thing I wanted was the प्यार of my life to be a monster., like myself. I knew I couldn’t stop this from happening. Though I quickly tried to figure out ways to get her away from all those filthy bloodsuckers. To live a better life. I felt my eyes water. I crouched beside Paul expecting him to push me away. But surprisely he didn’t.
“Paul. Maybe we can stop this. Maybe we can send her away from any bloodsuckers like आप tried before. We can figure something out.” I assured him. But than I thought that the chances of her being away from any bloodsuckers may be thin now. I began to loose all hope.
“No Jake. Its not possible. We started the cycle again when the Cullens returned. I doubt she will be able to get away from it now. I just hope she can survive this.” I than saw tears starting in his eyes.
“Its alright Paul” Sam cut in. “We will take good care of her. I promise. Lilly is one of us, and we all lover her dearly like she were our sister. आप can rely on us to make sure were with her every step of the way kid.”
“I know. Its not that I don’t trust आप my brothers. Its just I wish I could have stopped it. “ Paul answered. I still crouched beside him unable to find anymore words to say. I didn’t want to see my प्यार suffer. Even though its not all bad when आप get the hang of it. I remembered those months I spent in my भेड़िया form after I found out Bella was to be turned into a …vampire. Its not all that bad. But was it possible for two वेयरवोल्फ to be together? Even if it wasn’t I would find a way.
“Jake, I have to apologize. Its not that I don’t want आप to to be together. I really wouldn’t prefer her with anyone else” कहा Paul. “its just I was already frustrated because of the news. It was all too much for me to take in. And now im counting on आप to protect her at anytime I cant. And I know आप will. Ive decided that I want आप to दिखाना her first. That we are wolves.”
Me? I thought. It was never a problem for me to दिखाना my secret if I had permission to. I began to think of the look on Charlies face when I showed him a साल पूर्व before taking him to the Cullens. He कहा the less he knew the better. But it was different with Lilly. I had to दिखाना her what she was about to become…
“Of course. I will. I just don’t want to just yet. Can we give it a couple days before we scare her off? At least until the signs began to show? And I thought we weren’t allowed to tell her anyway. “
“well,” Sam cut in, “its an loophole to that rule. If आप दिखाना her what she is yet to become द्वारा will, than it will work. आप would have to find a way for आप phase to be forced upon आप instead of phasing द्वारा yourself. Like in a situation that involved danger to her या yourself.”
“Wait a मिनट “ I कहा in disbelief. “I have to put my girlfriend in danger?”
“She is not your girlfriend YET” Leah laughed.
“Okay enough Leah. This is hard for Jacob than it is for the rest of us. And yes Jake. We will devise a plan so we can all be near . Don’t worry, we will work this out. Well meet her tomorrow at noon to work out the details. Everyone leave to get rest tonight.” Sam phased back into his भेड़िया form and ran threw the tress. I suspected Emily wanted him to get घर early tonight. I turned to Paul to find him phasing back into his भेड़िया form. I phased an followed him through the woods.
Jake? Will आप promise me that आप wont let anything happen to Lilly?
Of course Paul. I put everything I own on it. I will not let anything happen to her. I bet my tail on it. I wiggled my tail as it trailed behind me. Paul let out a small growl that I knew was a laugh. I had to, She was now my everything. It was no way I would allow her to get hurt. I loved her और than anything now.
तारीख, दिनांक
Damn. What should I wear! Why was I so nervous. I had actually been on many dates. After the whole Bella situation I found myself dating around to find the प्यार of my life. I should have known when I first saw the different girls I didn’t imprint any of them that they weren’t the ones. So for the rest of the dates I would find something else to occupy me. This upset most girls since I completely ignored them. I had to look nice. I couldn’t just go in my usually t-shirt and cargo shorts. I rummaged through a pile of clean clothes on my bed. I found a grey button up and slipped it on. Nice I thought. What about my hair? Damn, should I wear it slicked back या a little wild. I cursed under my breath as I headed to the bathroom. Billy followed me with a low smirk on his face.
“Why are आप getting ready so early. I thought your तारीख, दिनांक with Lilly wasn’t until 5? Its only 3:30.”
“Well I, um…Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t late.” I blushed. I guess Billy was on to me. He wheeled himself out smiling and shaking his head. I felt a little embarrassed. I couldn’t wait to get to her. It was already hard enough being away from her for a couple of hours. I couldn’t wait till she knew everything so she would understand why I wanted to be around her every मिनट of every hour, of every day.
I did have a lot of time to spare though. I walked outside and headed towards my garage. I figured ill go take a look at my latest project. I was fixing an old bike my father bought for me for getting good grades. I still had the bike Bella had gotten me. I figured the addition would be good so I could teach Lilly how to ride too. I heard footsteps behind me and turned to find Bella standing behind me. Speak of the devil.
“So, a little birdie told me that Jacobs finally in love!” She teased. The was balanced on चोटी, शीर्ष of on of my bikes. It still took some time to get use to her being so gracrful and athletic. Especially since before she turned into a Vampire she was accident prone. Bella and I visted each other often considering she still lived in forks. I was mistakenly imprinted to her half vampire half human daughter renessme until politics got involved. I couldn’t be with her because of her Vampire side. This was some news I didn’t take every lightly when our ancients removed the imprint. And now I could look as her as just a sister. Which to me, was alright now that I found Lily.
“Okay so let me guess. Seth told आप huh? Im going to rip his head off.”
Bella smiled. She was so beautiful. Even और now that she was a blood-..well I mean vampire.
“Its alright. So when do I get to meet her? I have to approve.” She joked. But I guess she could tell I wasn’t laughing या thrilled.
“You can meet her soon. There’s another complication. Seems I cant just प्यार someone who isn’t cursed.” I sighed putting my head down.
“Whats wrong Jake? Shes another Vampire?” So Seth didn’t tell Bella the whole story. She had never met Lilly on her visits.
“Well, No. actually the opposite. आप see I imprinted Lilly, Paul’s sister. And well आप know how Leah …” I couldn’t even finish my sentence. I guess I didn’t need to.
“Oh Jake.” Bella whispered. “Don’t worry everything will be fine. आप guys will still live the life आप want. Just make sure आप both control आप tempers” she joked. This time I laughed. Bella always made me feel better. She was defiantly like a big sister now.
“Well आप can meet her as soon as we train her after she turns. She doesn’t know yet, but she will phase soon. When shes a महीना in आप can meet her. Just to be safe. Wheres Edward? “
“Oh hes hunting right now. I just finished so I thought I would come around to see you. Wheres billy? Ive gotten good news to tell him about Charlie. Unless Charlie already told him”
“hes in the house I answered. “Hey Bella how do I look? Im going on my first तारीख, दिनांक with Lilly, and I want to make sure I look okay.” I did a full 360 to दिखाना her my wardrobe. She shook her head and fixed my shirt.
“You look perfect Jake. Don’t be nervous. After all आप are destined to be together. Have a good time. And just be yourself. Call me and let me know how it is. I have to hurry back before Alice has a fit, she wants me to help her plan Emmetts birthday party. आप know how she can get” she laughed.
“Alright tell everyone I कहा हे will you”
“Sure. प्यार ya”
“Love ya too Bellz”
Bella disappeared into the forest. Amazing how fast she was. Anyway time flew by, so I grabbed my black bike and headed out the gargage I thought I would get cool points for दिखा रहा है up on my bike rather than my car. I got on, and pushed the throttle full force. I sped onto the road as fast as I can, anxious to go see the प्यार of my life.
Should I call this a date?- Lilly
I was at the समुद्र तट before Jacob.
I guess I was just anxious to see him, या anxious to see the समुद्र तट again. Maybe both. When Jacob and I were younger आप couldn’t take us away from this beach. I took of my sandals and grabbed the side of my sundress. I let the तत्पर, तेज, स्विफ्ट wind run through my long black hair as I walked towards the water. The waves were getting big around this time of year. I smiled as a soft mist ran across my cheek.
I sat under the big पेड़ on the side of the wale waiting for Jacob. A million things began to run through my mind. I couldn’t wait to see Jake. But was this a date? I didn’t really know what to call it considering we use to run around in pampers with each other. A loud roar of an engine interrupted my thoughts and made me jump. I than found myself facing Jacob and that lovely smile.
“Sorry im late” he कहा still smiling. “Had to stop and get gas. Wow आप look …GREAT Lilly.”
“Thanks आप to” I smiled. “ I had forgotten how great the समुद्र तट look to. Why don’t आप come take a सीट beside me?” I patted my hand on the soft sand beside me. Jacob nodded and smiled and kicked the kick stand up on his bike. Wow he had a bike. I loved bikes. This really was a plus. I found that weak feeling in my knees again.
We talked for hours. We caught up on school, the tribe, friends, families and hobbies. He told me he wanted me to meet some of his friends, The Cullens. He told me about Quills girlfriend and how much everyone has evolved. I told him how my dancing was going, and how I wanted tot ryout for this company dance who traveled. That’s one thing Jacob always liked about me. That I was a dancer. I did tap, ballet, and jazz all my life. I always wanted to be a premier ballerina. He use to call me twinkle toes when we were younger. We found ourselves talking so much that we लॉस्ट track of time. It was now dark, so Jake decided to light a fire. I was getting a little cold. He built the आग and scooted in close to me on the पेड़ we were leaning on. He put his arms around me. The heat from his body was tremendous and I was no longer cold. Once again it felt so good to be close to him. I couldn’t believe that the person I once called “stinky Jacob” was so comfortable.
“Hey lilly can I ask आप something. Is this akward for you? Um..how do आप feel about me?” He asked with an embarrassed look on his face. I smiled, everything felt so right with him.
“well, I’ve always liked आप Jacob. This feels so right. आप have truly grown into quite the young man.” I smiled. “I guess आप can say im falling for you”
Jacob smiled my smile. He pulled hiself close to me. “I feel the same way” he said. As he planted a small किस on my for head. I felt so weird. Usually I would be playing और hard to get with any guy. But this wasn’t just any guy. This was Jabob. My Jacob.
The night had gone द्वारा so fast I didn’t want it to end.
“Can I give आप a ride home?” Jake asked pointing to his bike. “its late and I don’t want आप to walk”
“Sure!” I कहा excited to ride on his bike. He pulled of an हेलमेट and helped put it on.
“There is one और place I want to take आप to first okay?” He asked.
“yea that’s fine.” I agreed. After all I wasn’t in any rush to be away from him.
We pulled of the समुद्र तट onto the long dark road through the tress. It was so much fun. The wind blowing between my long black hair. I held on tighter to Jacobs muscular body. I was hard for me to put my arms completely around him. My knees got weak again when my hand brushed across his abs. We drove for 10 मिनटों before we pulled up to a gazebo on the other end of the beach. Funny I had never seen it before. It was completely beautiful. It stood of a pier covered with lights. The ocean beneath it sparked from the moonlight. It was like a mini paradise. Our mini paradise. If Jacob was trying to impress me, it defiantly was working.
“Oh my God!” I gasped as I pulled off my हेलमेट and hopped off the bike. I didnt even care if my hair was sticking up all over the place.
“you like it ?”$ Jake asked fixing my hair. I put the lights up and brought a radio out here. I figured we could get a dance in. Since I don’t know how and all, and I know आप can teach me.”
I smiled so big my jaws began to hurt. He smiled too, and grabbed my hand and pulled me on the pier on to the gazebo. He took a small tape out of his pocket and placed it into the tape player and pushed play. The संगीत began and he started to look nervous. He grabbed my hands and waited for my instruction. “Come twinkle toes. Im ready”
I smiled and took one of his hands and placed the other on the small of my back. He looked even और nervous. Cute.
“Okay first आप have to loosen up. Yea like that. Okay don’t be so stiff now.” I instructed. “Basically आप do a box step like this.” I gliding his body along with mines in the shape of a box. He was surprisingly graceful on his feet. Like a born natural.
“Very good Jake! See आप can dance” I laughed. He smiled back and brought his head close to my hair. “ im so glad आप back Lilly” he told me. And gave me another किस on my forehead. Sweeter than the first. I found myself staring him into his gentle eyes. Once again I felt और comfortable than ever. I was और happier than ever to. I pulled myself close to him until our lips were almost touching. I pressed my lips gently against his waiting to see if I took it to far. He replied द्वारा pressing his lips against mine. He opened his mouth and started to किस me और passionately. I kissed back, getting the weak in the knees feeling again. This felt so right. And I never wanted the किस to end.
We kissed for a long time before we came up for air. He smiled at me and gave me the same bone crunching hug he gave me before. I was to happy to even notice the pain. I hugged him back and rested my head on his broad chest. We stood there dancing even longer.
“Thanks Jake. It was the best.” I smiled. “ You’re a natural at dancing” I joked squeezing his hand as he walked me to the front steps of my cabin. I saw form the corner of my eye the tip of the curtain drop. Ah Paul spying. At this point I didn’t really care.
“Anytime Lill. I had a lot of fun!” Jacob smiled back. “Hey is it alright if we get together tomorrow again? Maybe go swimming?” He asked with an anxious look on his face.
“Sure. I bet आप I can still out swim आप “ I smirked.
“Oh I highly doubt that” he smirked back. We walked up to the front steps and I stopped and turned towards him. “Goodnight Lilly” Jacob कहा before he planted a sweet warm किस on my lips.
“Goodnight Jake” I answered back. I smiled an walked into the house expecting to see Paul awake. He was playing sleep. I laughed and walked over to him and planted a किस on his warm for head. I walked up the stairs to find Granma Lilly still awake in her room. She had a worried look on her face.
“Grandma wats wrong?” I asked. She turned and faced me and noticed I saw the look on her face. She immediatly turned her face back into the calm grandma lilly face I knew and loved.
“Everything is fine sweetpea. Just a bad dream. Its late on on to sleep now, she sed as she reached for my face. I placed my face in her palms and she places a किस on my forhead. “ I प्यार you”
“Love आप too” I replied as I pulled the sheets back over her. She worried me now a days. She was growing older with age, and looked like her health got worst. I closed her room door and slipped of my sundress, सुन्दरता and shoes. I plopped in the बिस्तर thinking of how wonderful my night had been. I was so happy. Everything was perfect. I was back घर with my फ्रेंड्स and family. And I was …in love? I smiled and closed my eyes picturing Jacobs smile. I slipped into a deet sleep, feeling the eyes of my guardian एंजल upon me again.
I woke up the अगला morning to the smell of सूअर का मांस, बेकन and and ब्लूबेरी muffins. I had guessed that it was Emilys cooking. I put my rob on, brushed my teeth and brushed my haird down. I ran down the stairs to find one of my प्रिय people. Emily.
“Good morning!!” She beamed. I made आप some of your प्रिय blue berry muffins!”
“Thanks Em!” I कहा giving her a huge hug. “Where’s grandma?”
“Oh.” Emily answered looking worried. “She’s fine. She isn’t feeling to well right now. Well come on sweetpea, I also fixed आप some सूअर का मांस, बेकन and eggs. Eat up now, the boys wants us to go swimming with them today at the beach”
I rembered that Jacob already asked me. I smiled as I grabbed my plate and sat across from Emily at the table. I guess she noticed my smile.
“Soo, how was आप and Jacobs date? Tell me all about it!” Emily asked. She was always like a big sister to me. I shared everything with her even when I was in California. I smiled ad began to ramble on and tell her every detail of the date. She laughed and टिप्पणी जोड़ा गया हे on everything.
“Its crazy. I never would have imagined that Me and Jacob out of all people. I really like him Em. At first it was awkward but now it feels so right.”
“I can tell. He is a really good person. And आप two kids really like each other. Look at आप your glowing sweetpea!” We both laughed before we were interrupted द्वारा two male voices bickering as they walked into the house.
“Yea yea I bet I could beat आप with my eyes closed”
“whatever Jake lets give it a go as soon as we touch down on the beach. Ill bet आप 5 dollars jerk”
“Okay fine. Deal. “
Jacob and Paul laughed as they entered the kitchen. Jacob smiled at me my प्रिय smile. Than looked me up and down. I noticed I still had my hair wrapped and my लबादा, बागे on. “Must आप two make deals about everything” laughed Emily.
“Come on Lilly आप should have been ready द्वारा now. We are all about to leave. Go put your bathing suit on.” Paul fussed at me. I smiled and got up from the तालिका, टेबल and told Jake goodmoring before I went upstairs to change. Jacob smiled another wide smile, as Emily and Paul exchanged glances and started to laugh.
“Ah shutup!” I heard Jacob yell at them.
I put on my प्रिय purple bikini with सोना trim. I slipped on a bathing suit cover and my सोना flip flops. I tied my hair into a a half up half down style. Wow I looked good. I skipped down the stairs to शामिल होइए the rest.
“Okay Lilly आप ride with Jake on his bike. Make sure आप put the हेलमेट on too” Paul ordered.”The rest of us will ride with Sam and Emily.
I put the हेलमेट on tightly and wrapped my arms around Jacobs’s bare chest. He took his कमीज, शर्ट off before we got on the bikes. I knew he was laughing when he saw the red दिखाना in my cheeks. I smiled and shook my head. He looked so good. So cut.
We got to the समुद्र तट द्वारा the time everyone else was already in the water. Quill and Embry were too busy trying to dunk each other while Leah and Seth were jumping off the ledge. Sam was carrying Emily twirling her and exchanging jokes. We hopped of the bike and I took off my cover slip. This time Jake blushed.
“Shall we? “ I asked as I broke off into a run teaseling towards the समुद्र तट cool waters. Jacob laughed and joined behind me pinning me as he jumped into the water. We laughed and started splashing each other and trying to out swim each other as we had done in the good ole days. He was defiantly right though. He had learned how to swim way faster than me.
“Aw man!” I yelled when we reached the cave which was the finishing point. The water reached below my chin as I tread facing him smiling. “How did आप learn how to swim like that!”
“I told आप I have acquired many skills” Jacob laughed. “Ha ha I beat आप chump. What’s the अगला competition?” he asked smiling. I laughed and swam closer to him. I planted a किस on his his wet lips and he started to किस me back. WE laughed and kissed under the cave opening. Before we started to hear a sound that sounded like an animal growling in the distance. Jacobs head shot up and turned to face me.
“What the hell was that?” I asked with my hands still around his neck.
“Stay here, आप understand? Jake told me. He pulled me up with one hand and sat me on a rock on the lower side of the cave. “Do not leave this cage till I tell आप alright Lilly? He asked me with a urgency in his voice. I got a little scared from the sound.
“Fine okay.” I कहा quickly looking at his worried face. He planted another gentle किस on my lips and swam so fast I couldn’t even see him leave. I heard और sounds in the distance this time और loud. I felt my body grow hot, I couldn’t tell if it was from the fear that ran through my body या not. I heard और growls and became concerned with everyone else. I wanted to listen to Jacob but I was too worried. I lept off the rock and started to swim near the cave opening. The water felt way कूलर than it originally did. I felt sharp pains in my feet as I peddled forward. Wow fear really had a physical affect on me I thought .
I peeped out the corner of the cave opening praying that everyone was safe. I heard और roars, and ripping sounds. I couldn’t see as far as I wanted to. I swam closer desperate to make sure my प्यार ones were safe. As I grew closer I saw 7 figures on the shore. And than I saw them. There where about 6 of them. They were in the shape of wolves, but a lot bigger than your normal wolf. They were strong and fast and powerful like those described in the legends of our tribes. I saw a pale white figure in the middle of them crying in pain as they dismembered its body. “No! “ I screamed. I had imagined that it was a human they were attacking. I knew there was nothing I could do about it but I still swam closer in hopes of finding Jacob and the others to make sure they weren’t in any danger. One of the tallest भेड़िया turned to face me with its dark deepset eyes. I panicked and found myself staring back. It saw me. It was staring at me. I turned around to swim back towards the cave yelling Jacobs and everyone elses name. The pain in my legs grew deeper and deeper. My skin began to burn against the cool water. I grew और and और in pain. I yelped and gasped for air as I felt myseld starting to pull under the water.I grew और and और mad that coundt find anyone. I felt the anger shoot through out my body. The pain in my legs were so bad that I couldn’t swim anymore. I twisted and turned under the water trying to find the strength to swim back to the top; My lungs began to burn as I gasped for air. The last thing I remember seeing is a furry figure grabbing me and its mouth and pulling me gently up towards the top.
No, Not now!-Jacob
I paced anxiously outside of Lillians room door while Billy and Emily were inside with her. They wouldn’t let me in. This made me so mad, that I cursed every curse word possible at everyone who came my way. Paul sat slouched on the floor on the side of the door with his hands in his face.
It wasn’t supposed to happen like this. She wasn’t supposed to have a near-death experience when we exposed ourselves to her. I felt a deep pain in my stomach. If anything was to happen to her, how would I live on? This wasn’t even the damn plan. Hell we didn’t even discuss how we would come out to her yet. If it wasn’t for this stupid bloodsucker who came out of no where to try to attack Emily. Damn, I thought. We knew the reason why she couldn’t swim back to the cave had a lot to do with the fact of her about to phase. Already? How could I let this happen?
“Shes fine. Jake आप can calm down” Billy assured me as he came out of Lillys room. “She is breathing normal and her temperature went down a couple of degrees. She was really close to phasing. Wouldn’t have been a good thing if her first time phasing was in water.” Billy sighed and wheeled past me. I opened the door to find Paul already beside her holding her hands. “ She okay Jake. Ill leave आप two alone for a little. Maybe this is a good time to tell her” I could see the pain in Paul’s eyes as he got up and placed her hands in mine. I could tell her really trusted me with this.
I kissed he lightly on her cheek as I put her hand to my chest. She looked even और beautiful . She slept so peacefully. I still was in pain at the thought of almost loosing her. But I had to tell her. Before it was to late. I was much harder for girls to survive their first phase than guys. I had to prepare her.
“Jake?” She weakly opener her eyes and smiled a weak smile at me. “Thank you. They told me आप were the one that pulled me out.”
“Yea I answered weakly” I was still miserable to see her in pain. “im so glad your okay. आप scared me Lilly.” I कहा as I kissed her hand.
She gave me the strongest smile she could give me. This was it, I had to tell her something. But not now, she wasn’t in her right state of mind. I wanted her to be stronger than how she was now. There was no way I wanted to inflict anymore pain on her..not today. I pulled a small lil फूल out of the pouch I kept around my ankle for my clothes whenever I phased. Yea it was a little cliché, but I knew it would make my प्यार happy.
“For आप twinkle toes” I smiled as I positioned the lilly on the side of her long black hair. She smiled again, this time a little stronger than the last.
“Oh Jake how corny. But thanks anyway.” She kissed my hand and laid her head in my lap. I don’t think she noticed my heat, she was already hot her self. Damn…that means its getting closer and closer to her first phase.
“Hey Lily, I have to talk to आप about something important. When your feeling a little better. Im sure आप have a lot of सवालों about what you’ve seen at the lake. But right now get your rest. Im going downstairs to talk to Sam and Paul and tell the others your alright, okay?”
I think she noticed the worry look on my face. I could tell she was contemplating on asking what was wrong, but seem like she was already so confused with todays events that she rather not intervene. She smiled again,
“Okay. Will आप promise me to come back later tonight though? I doubt I will get any sleep tonight.” She asked.
I could sense the fear in her voice. She really must have seen और than I expected today. So this meant that I had to explain things sooner than I thought. Darn.
“Sure chump. Get some sleep ill be back in an घंटा या so. I promise.” I kissed her again on her forehead and fluffled her pillows. I made sure she had plenty of water beside her and piled the most फिल्में I could carry in my two hands with the remote on the night stand. i gave her another kissed and left. Damn here goes nothing. They were already downstairs in deep conversation. It was Sam, Paul, Quill, Embry and Seth. Good Leah isn’t her I thought. Didn’t feel like hearing her annoying mouth tonite.
“So?” Paul asked. “How the hell did all this happen? And where the hell did that blood sucker come from? I only thought the Cullens were left here. No other.” Everyone stopped and stared when I entered the room. Guess they didn’t really know what to say.
“Jake, I think आप should go to Edward and Carslisle in the morning. Tell them what happened and ask them if they know of any वैंपायर on the lands. Either way, they broke the treaty. We have to work fast, this could pose a threat to all our फ्रेंड्स and families.” Sam कहा slowly. He looked tired from hunting with the rest of the pack. While Lilly was resting when we brought her back we found the scents of two और वैंपायर that we didn’t recognized and circled the lands. They were nowhere to be found. That means there were two और filthy blood suckers around here somewhere. Great.
“And ill go talk to Granma Lilly about her vision. She कहा the other night she saw Lilly phasing. But it was in the present of Vampires. I hope shes talking about the Cullens. So just go get some rest Jake.” Paul said. I could tell he was dead tired too. And shook.
“Okay. I will. But I need to tell Lilly soon. The signs are all here now. All it takes is for someone या something to make her mad and it’s a wrap.” I कहा gloomily. Everyone looked at me with remorse. They could tell how much this hurts me. I didn’t want her to have this same fate as I did. Though it wasn’t all bad, it was still hard to see her suffer in the beginning. I didnt know what I would do if she got her. या worst…didn’t survive.
“Okay Jake. Get some rest. WE all need rest. Do आप want Quill and Embry to make a couple of rounds tonite?” asked Sam. Darn I forgot they were members of my pack now.
“No it’s alright. Everyone go घर and rest.” I turned around with no goodbyes and headed back to Lilly’s room. She was fast asleep. Good, I didn’t really feel like talking. I gently lifted her warm head and sat it on my lap. I laid down beside her and began to rub her hair. She was so pretty. He skin the same color of mine was so beautiful against her long black silky hair. And oh my God when she smiled…I didn’t प्यार anything और to see her smile. Her eyes were a pretty shade of brown, with a pretty slant to them. She was perfect. And well not to mention her petite body and shape. I didn’t even think I could sleep now. I had to much damn things on my mind. What was going to happen when I told Lilly? Would I even be able to tell her? Would she get scared and run away? I knew Lilly was tuff. She had been through और than I have in some circumstances. But this still didn’t change my mind. I wanted to stop this. I wanted to get rid of those filthy bloodsuckers that triggered this change. I had to. For her.
I woke up the अगला morning mad at myself for even falling asleep. For वेयरवोल्फ it was so easy for us to fall into a deep sleep whenever we had the chance too. I know I had to be snoring. Bella use to always complain about that. And than I thought about it. Damn wasn’t I a genius. I had to get to Bella right away. To her and Edward to sort this mess out. I got up and yawned as I stretched my arms. Than I notices Lilly wasn’t even beside me. I automatically panicked.
“LILLY!” I screamed at the चोटी, शीर्ष of my lungs. I didn’t really care if I woke up Mrs. Lillain. Im pretty sure she would wonder where Lilly was to. And Paul. I was doing them a favor.
Phase- Lily
When I heard Jacob yell my name I almost slipped and fell in the shower.
“Jake im in the shower!” I replied. The soap slipped out my hand and landed on my toe. Surprise enough it didn’t even hurt that much. I was so focused on making the शावर, शॉवर as cold as I could. I was burning up.
I got out the शावर, शॉवर dried off and ringed my hair. I was exhausted. I felt like crap. My head was still hurting, my feet legs. Hell every part of my body was aching. Everything was spinning. I was glad that Jake stayed with me last night. But I still didn’t feel that much better. And lets not to mention, the events that happened left me confused. And a little scared.
I washed my face and pulled my hair back down. I headed back into my room to find Jake lookin worried. As if I was kidnapped या like I wasn’t myself.
“Are आप okay?” Jake asked. “You scared the living crap out of me Lil. How are आप feeling? Any pain? आप need anything?”
“No thanks Jake I’m fine” I smiled back.
OW! I yelped as I closed my finger on the car door. “DAMN, DAMN, DAMN OWWWWWW!”
Everyone and I mean everyone across the reservations school grounds starred. “Great” I whispered to myself sarcastically. Haven’t been back in two years, and I already found a way to embarrass myself. I wasn’t really looking आगे to my first दिन back; considering I was now of age to attend high school against my will. O well, only one and a half years to go I thought. At least I had College to look आगे too. And even better, being back to my फ्रेंड्स and family.
I pulled my long black hair back into a टट्टू tail as I observed everyone at the school I was soon to e attending. Everyone looked the same. I felt a little out of place when I looked in my pocket mirror I pulled out of my purse. I had my hair cut in layers just before I came. It still hung long down my back, the blackest shade of black. My sleek slanted eyes had a pretty shade of purple eye shadow I had bought to compliment the purple sundress, सुन्दरता I had on my russet colored skin. I can’t believe I wore wedges. Now my feet were going to hurt. I really looked out of place now. Especially compared to the jeans and T-shirts I use to wear when I ran around the reservation fields with my brother Paul and his फ्रेंड्स years ago.
Believe it या not, a small portion of me was excited to be back. Moving from La Push to California stripped a big part of my heritage away from me. I was glad to be back to the birthplace of my roots. No matter how far I distanced myself; the Indian blood would never cease to flow in my veins. I was proud, and was glad to see my grandma Lillian along with my brother Paul. I’m pretty sure I missed a lot considering my 2 साल absence. I came to visit often as I could, and though it was expensive to fly clear across the country I still made a point to visit for every holiday and birthday. My brother Paul was और than a brother to me, और like a best friend. I wish he was the only reason I came back. My eyes watered as I thought of worst night of my life. The phone call, the sirens, and the stretcher…
“Lily!” screamed Paul as he ran fast across the campus arms open to me. “Paul! You’ve gotten so BIG!” And he had. I mean a lot bigger. He had to be about 6’3 with broad shoulders, and very precise cut muscles. Had I really been gone that long? He looked about 5 years older than his age. I was in slight shock when he hugged me so tight that I realized I couldn’t breathe. “Wow आप look HUGE!” I कहा again in disbelief. My baby brother is all grown up now. That means I have to hear countless stories of puberty and girlfriends now. Ugh. “How have u been Lily? Everyone so excited to see you. We throwing a big par-“He cut off his sentence looking disappointed in his self. Paul could never keep secrets. It reminded me all the times he got me in trouble when we were little when he couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Still the same. I laughed to myself with this thought. “Its okay Paul I will act surprised for you. How is everyone though? Where’s Quil, and Embry. And Sam! And Jacob!.” Paul was so happy to see me, I don’t even think he heard any of my questions. He was already busy unpacking my things from the taxi and लोडिंग them into his pickup truck. I giggled and went to help him just to discover he already had everything unpacked.
La push looked almost exactly like I remembered it. The trees still toward high over the reservation. The समुद्र तट was exactly the same. Everything still so beautiful and relaxing. It was home, and was everything I looked आगे to reuniting with. I eyed the shops and bonfires as we passed La pushes busiest sites near the town. As soon as we started getting deeper in the woods, I knew we were almost home. I could finally see my grandmother Lillian-whom I was named after. Granma Lillian and I were always close, no matter how far I was physically. And though she was blind, I felt like she saw and knew everything . She was और than wise, and everyone came to her for advice. She made everyone’s दिल smile. And than I thought of all the boys- Quill, Embry, Jake, Seth. I couldn’t wait to see them, and I knew they felt the same. To most, I was like a big sister to them as well…though to some I was just a major crush that Paul didn’t look आगे to facing every day. He would always come घर from school dirty from wrestling with Jake and Embry when they made jokes of me being there future wife. Good times.
I approached the dark केबिन trying to put a look of enthusiasm and surprise on my face for Paul. He looked at me and winked as he approached the door knob. I nodded my head giving him the okay to open the door. I didn’t have to pretend to much as everyone yelled surprise from the चोटी, शीर्ष of there lungs. I was so happy to be home, the look on my face couldn’t be और satisfying. The first person I saw was Emily open arms. I tucked myself into her tight arms with tears in my eyes. “Oh Emily! I was so excited to see everyone. Especially Emily. She was always like a सेकंड mother to me…after… “Lill!” Another two tight hugs emerged from behind Emily. Quill and Embry looked a lot और taller than Paul. They were also tall and thick with toned muscles. They looked so big. “ Quill, Embry! Hugging them back. “ Omg where is Jake, Sam and Seth?” I asked. “There in the back about to bring out आप cake. We took a lot preparation to make this a special birthday for you, being back in La push. Your grandma Lillian fixed a huge feast to.” Answered Quill with a sly smile on his face. I laughed to myself as him and Embry looked me up and down with big smiles on their face. आप can tell they were trying not to blush.
And Oh yea…It was my birthday. I had completely forgot with all the excitement of being home. It took me about an घंटा to get around to all my hellos and happy birthdays from my family and friends. I finnaly saw Sam, who looked 6 times bigger than Quil, Embry and Paul. I exchanged hugs with everyone द्वारा the time they decided to bring out my cake. It was a big चॉकलेट cake with the words Happy birthday Lilly written in bright pink. I blew out the candles after everyone song our tribes version of happy birthday. That’s when I noticed Jacob.
“Jacob!” I screamed his name so loud everyone in the room stopped what they were doing to look. I grabbed him as hard as I can even though I wasn’t able to लपेटें my arms even half way around his body. He was also equivalent to the sizes that Quill and Embry were. He was manlier than I remember, and a lot और hotter too. I mean the heat hot. Yea he was hotter, as in good look to though…His hair was shaggy in a cute way untidily on his head. He wore a tight white tee कमीज, शर्ट that showed every muscle in his body. He was so cut, and very ….handsome. His jaw and his broad shoulders, made him look so much older than 17.
I had wondered if I scared him with the greeting I gave him when I saw his face. He stared at me for a long time, and then smiled the best smile I have ever seen. I knew I always liked Jacob better than everyone else. When we were younger we use to make mud pies together. Me him and that Bella girl…We were always close. We were like partners in crime. Though I never looked at him this way I found myself doing. After all for some strange reason I seemed to be और excited to see him than anyone else.
“How have आप been chump? What’s been going on I know आप have tons to tell me. Ive brought all of आप presents back from Cali too. आप still work on cars? Ive got an gift_” he cut me off from my babbling with the same bone crunching hug the other boys gave me. But his hug was so much और gentle. Like he was embracing me. And it was comfortable…
“Okay, Awkward “whispered Quill to Embry with a smirk on his face. “Wait till Paul gets a load of this.” Embry smiled back “damn too bad, I would have liked her to be mine.” The two laughed a loud barking laugh and walked out into the living room. “Hey Lily!” Jake finally answered. “ Its so nice to see आप to bighead. आप look great! “A small blush on his russet colored his cheeks emerged. I giggled a nervous laugh. For some reason for the first time I didn’t know what to say around Jacob. We always laughed and joke together. Even if I stayed gone for 3 या four years at a time, we would always pick up where we left off. So why did everything seem so different now? I knew he always had a kindergarten crush on me…but I never thought a moment would come like this.
“Thanks Jake. आप too. आप look great. And so big. I swear all of आप guys had the same growth spurt. Where is Billy?”
“Oh he’s coming. He’s in the back getting your present ready. So whats new? आप went from tom boy to Miss चोटी, शीर्ष Model huh? “ कहा Jacob. The light blush returned his dark cheeks as he stared me up and down. “Well when आप live in California for a couple of years fashion really grows on you” I smiled back. “But im still the same Lilly in the inside. Just dying to go swimming, and dirt biking in the woods.” I than noticed my cheeks getting a little hotter. I must have been blushing too. I never looked at Jacob in this light before. It was so new to me, and unexpected. Embarrassed when I saw that Jacob noticed the color in my cheeks I excused myself to the living room. Oddly enough, he followed me.
Granma Lilly was emerged in one of her tales about our tribe to all of the kids in a circle. I had heard all of them when I was younger. I could only imagine how there imaginations carried them into the wild legends and tales as they did with mine. I asked Granma Lily to tell the stories over and over that I remembered every tale word for word. I was fascinated that they were about the origins of our tribes. Even though some of them were about सूपरनॅचुरल things like werewolves, and blood suckers. I never really believed those parts but they were very entertaining. “Ah Lilly”, Granma Lilly stopped and held her hand out to me “ im so excited that your back. I was just telling the little ones your प्रिय tales. Are आप enjoying your party?” “ Of course Granma!” I sat on the edge of her सीट “ this is the best party I have ever been to. Im so glad to be home. Everyone had grown so much. The boys! They are all huge now. And I can tell Paul is really happy im back. .” “ Lilly!” Billy appreared out of the kitchen. Your present is ready!” he looked so happy. I can tell it was something I really was going to like, considering Billy was in the रसोई, रसोईघर for practically the whole party. I got up and helped Granma lilly out her सीट to guide her t the रसोई, रसोईघर with me. I peeked around the corner and found myself looking at something fury hiding under the table. I heard a soft bark, and it scooted from under the तालिका, टेबल on to my foot. “Oh My GOD! A puppy! Its so cute! Oh my God thanks Billy! Thanks Jacob!” who stood staring at me with that warm smile he shown before. Wow, it made me a little weak at the knees. “ We would have दिया it to आप sooner but my dad wanted to groom it a little. He was really shaggy.” Jacob कहा petting the little कुत्ते का बच्चा, पिल्ला on his nose. He was so cute. He resembled a little wolf. Furry and light grey with white spots. He cuddled in my arms and hid his face under my shirt. I was in प्यार with him already. It was द्वारा far the best birthday gift I have ever gotten.
“What should I name him? “ I asked without taking my eyes off of my new puppy. “ I think आप should name him Billy Jr.” smiled Billy. I giggled at Billy as I sat the कुत्ते का बच्चा, पिल्ला down. I think ill ask Paul. Speaking of Paul…”Where is Paul? I havnt seen him since the party really started.” I looked at Billy for an answer , and saw a funny look on his face. “Err um…I’ll go see where he is for आप Lilly. Be right back.” Billy disappeared behind the grey doors to the patio. Where could my brother have disappeared to , and missed the whole party that he threw me? What could be और important? Than a little hint of anger came over me as I stomped my way out to the patio to investigate. As soon as I stepped outside I started to hear yelling. “ My sister though Jake! How could you, would आप like it if I did took a go at Rachel?” roared Paul. A deep sound that sounded like a growl came from his inner throat. I couldn’t see to clearly from hiding behind the side pole. I didn’t want them to stop talking when they saw me. So I guess I was right. Jake did have a crush on me. Buts what’s so bad about it? I could see myself with Jake. He was handsome as ever, and a great person. I guess Paul couldn’t just get over the fact that his best friend wants his sister. Hmm classic. “Come on Paul. आप know we cant help who we….” Jake cut off in mid sentence and I felt his deep cut eyes staring at me from behind the pole. How did he see या hear me? I was barely breathing. I stepped out from behind the pole and noticed that Quill and Embry were holding Paul द्वारा his arms. Billy gazed at me than at the both of them. He wheeled off laughing to hiself.
“So, आप guys decided to engage in a whole conversation about my where abouts huh? What the hell is goin on. And Quill why are u guys holding Paul back from Jake?”
“Well आप see-“ Jake started. But Paul cut him off
“Nothin Lilly go back inside and enjoy your party”. He let himself free from Quill and Embry’s grasp and flew into the kitchen. Quill and Embry laughed to themselves mumbling furiously as they entered the house behind him. This left Jacob and I alone again.
“So whats is going on Jake? Why is Paul so upset? I haven’t seen him for most of the party” I asked. I found myself to be a little nervous around Jake now. This was akward considering I never would thought I would ever stumble over my words with him.
“Well, it’s hard to explain right now. Ill explain it later.” He had a half smile and half frown on his face. Could it really be that bad I thought?
“Alright. Well I want to thank आप again for the party and the gift. It’s the best present I have ever gotten. Im not to sure on what to name him though. Im kind of drawing a blank.” It was so hard to concentrate on what I was saying when I noticed that way that Jacob was looking at me. It was warm and comforting. I couldn’t help but to feel uncomfortable.
I guess Jake noticed. “Its fine. Don’t mention it.” Than came his smile. I felt myself get weak in the knees. “Anything for you. We all missed आप so much Lilly. It’s good to know आप cant stay away from the Quilletes that long huh. हे if your not doing anything tomorrow want to head to the समुद्र तट to catch up?”
I thought about how mad Paul was. And how he might be upset with me. But than I thought हे im grown.
“Sure sounds like a plan chump. Ill meet आप around 5 so I can have some time to rest from that long trip. Again thanks for everything” I reached to give him a hug. His arms embraced me once again like he had before. I felt so comfortable. And almost didn’t want to let go. I started to walk into the house when I turned around to say “Hey jake, आप should come inside and cool down your burning up”. But he had already vanished.
Paul didn’t talk to me for the rest of the night. I wondered if he had figured out about Jake and I’s date. Was it a date? Okay I definelty needed to slow myself down. But why was Paul so upset? I thought that he was being way to stubborn. When the party cleared out I found my way to my old room. Everything was exactly the same. I threw my bags in the corner of the room. I was way to tired to unpack now. I grabbed my unnamed कुत्ते का बच्चा, पिल्ला and laid him on my lap. He was fast asleep before I knew it. My thoughts wondered as stared at the cabins ceiling. I thought about my फ्रेंड्स and family. I thought about the lovely party they threw me. I thought about ….Jacob. I turned on my side and saw a shadow fly across my room. I didn’t really think nothing of it because I was entirely too tired to get scared. I closed my eyes hoping I could have a dreamless night. I preyed for guardian एंन्जल्स to wacth over us as I did every night like my grandma Lillian always told me to. Funny enough, I could actually feel their eyes watching me.
Surprise- Jacob
It was getting late. I better head घर to check on Billy.
Well, well, well today was filled with surprises. And I damn sure wasn’t looking आगे to getting back to the pack to hear Paul’s mouth again. He should have known that we can’t help who we imprint. So why was he so mad that it was his sister? He knows I will never hurt her. He knows I will प्यार her forver….but he was so damn stubborn. I had ton convince him it would be okay. I ran off the ledge of her window and started heading into the forest. I wanted to stay and wacth her sleep the whole night. Once आप imprinted someone it was so hard to stay away from them. Of course I already knew this seeing how Paul can never stay away from Kelsey. At least I imprinted someone that’s already my age I laughed to myself. And damn..i forgot I was in भेड़िया form when I heard Sam and Quill laugh at this thought.
Your right Jake. Paul could hardly talk his self. He’s in प्यार with a 4 साल old!
Ah shuttup Quill. आप know its not that kind of प्यार yet. Anwyay Jake, Paul would like to hold a pack meeting tonite at the clearing. Sam told me. I threw out every cuss word possible.
Ah fine. I really didn’t feel like fighting Paul tonite but I knew this is what it would come to. I wont hurt him…that bad. I smiled to myself. After all Paul was one of my best friends. Better Lilly be with me than some creep right? Deep down I knew that Paul knew I would treat her like my everything. I guess its just the fact it was his sister that upsets him. He was always so protective of her since their mother died. So I decided I would take it easy on him. I smiled again
The clearing bore no lights when I got there. The only light was the moonlight gazing between the tall tress. When I approached the pack everyone was there except for Paul.
Soooo Leah smirked. She was still a pain in the ass. And I couldn’t get rid of her. Shame. What is this I hear about Jacob imprinting Lilly? Already? Jake shes been back for 4 hours. And what makes आप think she wants you! She barked with an annoying laugh. I ignored her considering the fact Paul was somewhere listening.
Can it Leah. At least I found someone आप idiot. Anway what is this about? Paul where are you.
Im here. I turned around to find Paul in his भेड़िया form. I expected him to be crouched ready to attack. But he looked calm.
This meeting isn’t about आप and Lilly. Jake we would discuss that later. But it is about Lilly. Do any of आप know the real reason why we decided to bring Lilly back?
Eveveryone shook their heads and looked around the circle.
आप brought her back so आप could tell her about us right? To tell her that the legends were true? Seth answered. Seth has definelty gotten bigger since the last time I saw him. Finnaly startin to catch up to the rest of the pack.
Well yes part of it. Well as आप know we sent her away so she wouldn’t have to have our fate. We thought that if she wasn’t around any bloodsuckers we wouldn’t have to worry about her changing.
So why would आप bring her back here with the Cullens still here? I asked. I had forgetten all about that. The one last thing I didn’t really want Lilly to do was to turn to one of us. We had always hoped it would skip the female generation. But Leah proved otherwise.
Tell me about it. Leah कहा पढ़ना my thoughts.
Well आप see its और difficult now. Paul answerd. He was starting to look और concerned now. Before we decided to bring Lilly back Grandmother Lillian came to me. She showed me newpaper लेखाए about killing in Callabass where Lilly was staying. She कहा it was bloodsuckers. I asked her how she was so sure, and she कहा she had a vision. She कहा with Lilly around she would turn with their presences. Without knowing of her fate. Like we all did. Except she would have no one to guide her. Like Sam. So we had to bring her back. At least so she can turn with our help.
I could read Paul’s face now filled with sorrow. He phased back to his human self and collapsed on the ground with his head in between his legs. We all phased back with him. Lilly was going to turn into one of us? I could never imagine this with her being gone so long. I couldn’t bare it. I felt like Paul now. The last thing I wanted was the प्यार of my life to be a monster., like myself. I knew I couldn’t stop this from happening. Though I quickly tried to figure out ways to get her away from all those filthy bloodsuckers. To live a better life. I felt my eyes water. I crouched beside Paul expecting him to push me away. But surprisely he didn’t.
“Paul. Maybe we can stop this. Maybe we can send her away from any bloodsuckers like आप tried before. We can figure something out.” I assured him. But than I thought that the chances of her being away from any bloodsuckers may be thin now. I began to loose all hope.
“No Jake. Its not possible. We started the cycle again when the Cullens returned. I doubt she will be able to get away from it now. I just hope she can survive this.” I than saw tears starting in his eyes.
“Its alright Paul” Sam cut in. “We will take good care of her. I promise. Lilly is one of us, and we all lover her dearly like she were our sister. आप can rely on us to make sure were with her every step of the way kid.”
“I know. Its not that I don’t trust आप my brothers. Its just I wish I could have stopped it. “ Paul answered. I still crouched beside him unable to find anymore words to say. I didn’t want to see my प्यार suffer. Even though its not all bad when आप get the hang of it. I remembered those months I spent in my भेड़िया form after I found out Bella was to be turned into a …vampire. Its not all that bad. But was it possible for two वेयरवोल्फ to be together? Even if it wasn’t I would find a way.
“Jake, I have to apologize. Its not that I don’t want आप to to be together. I really wouldn’t prefer her with anyone else” कहा Paul. “its just I was already frustrated because of the news. It was all too much for me to take in. And now im counting on आप to protect her at anytime I cant. And I know आप will. Ive decided that I want आप to दिखाना her first. That we are wolves.”
Me? I thought. It was never a problem for me to दिखाना my secret if I had permission to. I began to think of the look on Charlies face when I showed him a साल पूर्व before taking him to the Cullens. He कहा the less he knew the better. But it was different with Lilly. I had to दिखाना her what she was about to become…
“Of course. I will. I just don’t want to just yet. Can we give it a couple days before we scare her off? At least until the signs began to show? And I thought we weren’t allowed to tell her anyway. “
“well,” Sam cut in, “its an loophole to that rule. If आप दिखाना her what she is yet to become द्वारा will, than it will work. आप would have to find a way for आप phase to be forced upon आप instead of phasing द्वारा yourself. Like in a situation that involved danger to her या yourself.”
“Wait a मिनट “ I कहा in disbelief. “I have to put my girlfriend in danger?”
“She is not your girlfriend YET” Leah laughed.
“Okay enough Leah. This is hard for Jacob than it is for the rest of us. And yes Jake. We will devise a plan so we can all be near . Don’t worry, we will work this out. Well meet her tomorrow at noon to work out the details. Everyone leave to get rest tonight.” Sam phased back into his भेड़िया form and ran threw the tress. I suspected Emily wanted him to get घर early tonight. I turned to Paul to find him phasing back into his भेड़िया form. I phased an followed him through the woods.
Jake? Will आप promise me that आप wont let anything happen to Lilly?
Of course Paul. I put everything I own on it. I will not let anything happen to her. I bet my tail on it. I wiggled my tail as it trailed behind me. Paul let out a small growl that I knew was a laugh. I had to, She was now my everything. It was no way I would allow her to get hurt. I loved her और than anything now.
तारीख, दिनांक
Damn. What should I wear! Why was I so nervous. I had actually been on many dates. After the whole Bella situation I found myself dating around to find the प्यार of my life. I should have known when I first saw the different girls I didn’t imprint any of them that they weren’t the ones. So for the rest of the dates I would find something else to occupy me. This upset most girls since I completely ignored them. I had to look nice. I couldn’t just go in my usually t-shirt and cargo shorts. I rummaged through a pile of clean clothes on my bed. I found a grey button up and slipped it on. Nice I thought. What about my hair? Damn, should I wear it slicked back या a little wild. I cursed under my breath as I headed to the bathroom. Billy followed me with a low smirk on his face.
“Why are आप getting ready so early. I thought your तारीख, दिनांक with Lilly wasn’t until 5? Its only 3:30.”
“Well I, um…Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t late.” I blushed. I guess Billy was on to me. He wheeled himself out smiling and shaking his head. I felt a little embarrassed. I couldn’t wait to get to her. It was already hard enough being away from her for a couple of hours. I couldn’t wait till she knew everything so she would understand why I wanted to be around her every मिनट of every hour, of every day.
I did have a lot of time to spare though. I walked outside and headed towards my garage. I figured ill go take a look at my latest project. I was fixing an old bike my father bought for me for getting good grades. I still had the bike Bella had gotten me. I figured the addition would be good so I could teach Lilly how to ride too. I heard footsteps behind me and turned to find Bella standing behind me. Speak of the devil.
“So, a little birdie told me that Jacobs finally in love!” She teased. The was balanced on चोटी, शीर्ष of on of my bikes. It still took some time to get use to her being so gracrful and athletic. Especially since before she turned into a Vampire she was accident prone. Bella and I visted each other often considering she still lived in forks. I was mistakenly imprinted to her half vampire half human daughter renessme until politics got involved. I couldn’t be with her because of her Vampire side. This was some news I didn’t take every lightly when our ancients removed the imprint. And now I could look as her as just a sister. Which to me, was alright now that I found Lily.
“Okay so let me guess. Seth told आप huh? Im going to rip his head off.”
Bella smiled. She was so beautiful. Even और now that she was a blood-..well I mean vampire.
“Its alright. So when do I get to meet her? I have to approve.” She joked. But I guess she could tell I wasn’t laughing या thrilled.
“You can meet her soon. There’s another complication. Seems I cant just प्यार someone who isn’t cursed.” I sighed putting my head down.
“Whats wrong Jake? Shes another Vampire?” So Seth didn’t tell Bella the whole story. She had never met Lilly on her visits.
“Well, No. actually the opposite. आप see I imprinted Lilly, Paul’s sister. And well आप know how Leah …” I couldn’t even finish my sentence. I guess I didn’t need to.
“Oh Jake.” Bella whispered. “Don’t worry everything will be fine. आप guys will still live the life आप want. Just make sure आप both control आप tempers” she joked. This time I laughed. Bella always made me feel better. She was defiantly like a big sister now.
“Well आप can meet her as soon as we train her after she turns. She doesn’t know yet, but she will phase soon. When shes a महीना in आप can meet her. Just to be safe. Wheres Edward? “
“Oh hes hunting right now. I just finished so I thought I would come around to see you. Wheres billy? Ive gotten good news to tell him about Charlie. Unless Charlie already told him”
“hes in the house I answered. “Hey Bella how do I look? Im going on my first तारीख, दिनांक with Lilly, and I want to make sure I look okay.” I did a full 360 to दिखाना her my wardrobe. She shook her head and fixed my shirt.
“You look perfect Jake. Don’t be nervous. After all आप are destined to be together. Have a good time. And just be yourself. Call me and let me know how it is. I have to hurry back before Alice has a fit, she wants me to help her plan Emmetts birthday party. आप know how she can get” she laughed.
“Alright tell everyone I कहा हे will you”
“Sure. प्यार ya”
“Love ya too Bellz”
Bella disappeared into the forest. Amazing how fast she was. Anyway time flew by, so I grabbed my black bike and headed out the gargage I thought I would get cool points for दिखा रहा है up on my bike rather than my car. I got on, and pushed the throttle full force. I sped onto the road as fast as I can, anxious to go see the प्यार of my life.
Should I call this a date?- Lilly
I was at the समुद्र तट before Jacob.
I guess I was just anxious to see him, या anxious to see the समुद्र तट again. Maybe both. When Jacob and I were younger आप couldn’t take us away from this beach. I took of my sandals and grabbed the side of my sundress. I let the तत्पर, तेज, स्विफ्ट wind run through my long black hair as I walked towards the water. The waves were getting big around this time of year. I smiled as a soft mist ran across my cheek.
I sat under the big पेड़ on the side of the wale waiting for Jacob. A million things began to run through my mind. I couldn’t wait to see Jake. But was this a date? I didn’t really know what to call it considering we use to run around in pampers with each other. A loud roar of an engine interrupted my thoughts and made me jump. I than found myself facing Jacob and that lovely smile.
“Sorry im late” he कहा still smiling. “Had to stop and get gas. Wow आप look …GREAT Lilly.”
“Thanks आप to” I smiled. “ I had forgotten how great the समुद्र तट look to. Why don’t आप come take a सीट beside me?” I patted my hand on the soft sand beside me. Jacob nodded and smiled and kicked the kick stand up on his bike. Wow he had a bike. I loved bikes. This really was a plus. I found that weak feeling in my knees again.
We talked for hours. We caught up on school, the tribe, friends, families and hobbies. He told me he wanted me to meet some of his friends, The Cullens. He told me about Quills girlfriend and how much everyone has evolved. I told him how my dancing was going, and how I wanted tot ryout for this company dance who traveled. That’s one thing Jacob always liked about me. That I was a dancer. I did tap, ballet, and jazz all my life. I always wanted to be a premier ballerina. He use to call me twinkle toes when we were younger. We found ourselves talking so much that we लॉस्ट track of time. It was now dark, so Jake decided to light a fire. I was getting a little cold. He built the आग and scooted in close to me on the पेड़ we were leaning on. He put his arms around me. The heat from his body was tremendous and I was no longer cold. Once again it felt so good to be close to him. I couldn’t believe that the person I once called “stinky Jacob” was so comfortable.
“Hey lilly can I ask आप something. Is this akward for you? Um..how do आप feel about me?” He asked with an embarrassed look on his face. I smiled, everything felt so right with him.
“well, I’ve always liked आप Jacob. This feels so right. आप have truly grown into quite the young man.” I smiled. “I guess आप can say im falling for you”
Jacob smiled my smile. He pulled hiself close to me. “I feel the same way” he said. As he planted a small किस on my for head. I felt so weird. Usually I would be playing और hard to get with any guy. But this wasn’t just any guy. This was Jabob. My Jacob.
The night had gone द्वारा so fast I didn’t want it to end.
“Can I give आप a ride home?” Jake asked pointing to his bike. “its late and I don’t want आप to walk”
“Sure!” I कहा excited to ride on his bike. He pulled of an हेलमेट and helped put it on.
“There is one और place I want to take आप to first okay?” He asked.
“yea that’s fine.” I agreed. After all I wasn’t in any rush to be away from him.
We pulled of the समुद्र तट onto the long dark road through the tress. It was so much fun. The wind blowing between my long black hair. I held on tighter to Jacobs muscular body. I was hard for me to put my arms completely around him. My knees got weak again when my hand brushed across his abs. We drove for 10 मिनटों before we pulled up to a gazebo on the other end of the beach. Funny I had never seen it before. It was completely beautiful. It stood of a pier covered with lights. The ocean beneath it sparked from the moonlight. It was like a mini paradise. Our mini paradise. If Jacob was trying to impress me, it defiantly was working.
“Oh my God!” I gasped as I pulled off my हेलमेट and hopped off the bike. I didnt even care if my hair was sticking up all over the place.
“you like it ?”$ Jake asked fixing my hair. I put the lights up and brought a radio out here. I figured we could get a dance in. Since I don’t know how and all, and I know आप can teach me.”
I smiled so big my jaws began to hurt. He smiled too, and grabbed my hand and pulled me on the pier on to the gazebo. He took a small tape out of his pocket and placed it into the tape player and pushed play. The संगीत began and he started to look nervous. He grabbed my hands and waited for my instruction. “Come twinkle toes. Im ready”
I smiled and took one of his hands and placed the other on the small of my back. He looked even और nervous. Cute.
“Okay first आप have to loosen up. Yea like that. Okay don’t be so stiff now.” I instructed. “Basically आप do a box step like this.” I gliding his body along with mines in the shape of a box. He was surprisingly graceful on his feet. Like a born natural.
“Very good Jake! See आप can dance” I laughed. He smiled back and brought his head close to my hair. “ im so glad आप back Lilly” he told me. And gave me another किस on my forehead. Sweeter than the first. I found myself staring him into his gentle eyes. Once again I felt और comfortable than ever. I was और happier than ever to. I pulled myself close to him until our lips were almost touching. I pressed my lips gently against his waiting to see if I took it to far. He replied द्वारा pressing his lips against mine. He opened his mouth and started to किस me और passionately. I kissed back, getting the weak in the knees feeling again. This felt so right. And I never wanted the किस to end.
We kissed for a long time before we came up for air. He smiled at me and gave me the same bone crunching hug he gave me before. I was to happy to even notice the pain. I hugged him back and rested my head on his broad chest. We stood there dancing even longer.
“Thanks Jake. It was the best.” I smiled. “ You’re a natural at dancing” I joked squeezing his hand as he walked me to the front steps of my cabin. I saw form the corner of my eye the tip of the curtain drop. Ah Paul spying. At this point I didn’t really care.
“Anytime Lill. I had a lot of fun!” Jacob smiled back. “Hey is it alright if we get together tomorrow again? Maybe go swimming?” He asked with an anxious look on his face.
“Sure. I bet आप I can still out swim आप “ I smirked.
“Oh I highly doubt that” he smirked back. We walked up to the front steps and I stopped and turned towards him. “Goodnight Lilly” Jacob कहा before he planted a sweet warm किस on my lips.
“Goodnight Jake” I answered back. I smiled an walked into the house expecting to see Paul awake. He was playing sleep. I laughed and walked over to him and planted a किस on his warm for head. I walked up the stairs to find Granma Lilly still awake in her room. She had a worried look on her face.
“Grandma wats wrong?” I asked. She turned and faced me and noticed I saw the look on her face. She immediatly turned her face back into the calm grandma lilly face I knew and loved.
“Everything is fine sweetpea. Just a bad dream. Its late on on to sleep now, she sed as she reached for my face. I placed my face in her palms and she places a किस on my forhead. “ I प्यार you”
“Love आप too” I replied as I pulled the sheets back over her. She worried me now a days. She was growing older with age, and looked like her health got worst. I closed her room door and slipped of my sundress, सुन्दरता and shoes. I plopped in the बिस्तर thinking of how wonderful my night had been. I was so happy. Everything was perfect. I was back घर with my फ्रेंड्स and family. And I was …in love? I smiled and closed my eyes picturing Jacobs smile. I slipped into a deet sleep, feeling the eyes of my guardian एंजल upon me again.
I woke up the अगला morning to the smell of सूअर का मांस, बेकन and and ब्लूबेरी muffins. I had guessed that it was Emilys cooking. I put my rob on, brushed my teeth and brushed my haird down. I ran down the stairs to find one of my प्रिय people. Emily.
“Good morning!!” She beamed. I made आप some of your प्रिय blue berry muffins!”
“Thanks Em!” I कहा giving her a huge hug. “Where’s grandma?”
“Oh.” Emily answered looking worried. “She’s fine. She isn’t feeling to well right now. Well come on sweetpea, I also fixed आप some सूअर का मांस, बेकन and eggs. Eat up now, the boys wants us to go swimming with them today at the beach”
I rembered that Jacob already asked me. I smiled as I grabbed my plate and sat across from Emily at the table. I guess she noticed my smile.
“Soo, how was आप and Jacobs date? Tell me all about it!” Emily asked. She was always like a big sister to me. I shared everything with her even when I was in California. I smiled ad began to ramble on and tell her every detail of the date. She laughed and टिप्पणी जोड़ा गया हे on everything.
“Its crazy. I never would have imagined that Me and Jacob out of all people. I really like him Em. At first it was awkward but now it feels so right.”
“I can tell. He is a really good person. And आप two kids really like each other. Look at आप your glowing sweetpea!” We both laughed before we were interrupted द्वारा two male voices bickering as they walked into the house.
“Yea yea I bet I could beat आप with my eyes closed”
“whatever Jake lets give it a go as soon as we touch down on the beach. Ill bet आप 5 dollars jerk”
“Okay fine. Deal. “
Jacob and Paul laughed as they entered the kitchen. Jacob smiled at me my प्रिय smile. Than looked me up and down. I noticed I still had my hair wrapped and my लबादा, बागे on. “Must आप two make deals about everything” laughed Emily.
“Come on Lilly आप should have been ready द्वारा now. We are all about to leave. Go put your bathing suit on.” Paul fussed at me. I smiled and got up from the तालिका, टेबल and told Jake goodmoring before I went upstairs to change. Jacob smiled another wide smile, as Emily and Paul exchanged glances and started to laugh.
“Ah shutup!” I heard Jacob yell at them.
I put on my प्रिय purple bikini with सोना trim. I slipped on a bathing suit cover and my सोना flip flops. I tied my hair into a a half up half down style. Wow I looked good. I skipped down the stairs to शामिल होइए the rest.
“Okay Lilly आप ride with Jake on his bike. Make sure आप put the हेलमेट on too” Paul ordered.”The rest of us will ride with Sam and Emily.
I put the हेलमेट on tightly and wrapped my arms around Jacobs’s bare chest. He took his कमीज, शर्ट off before we got on the bikes. I knew he was laughing when he saw the red दिखाना in my cheeks. I smiled and shook my head. He looked so good. So cut.
We got to the समुद्र तट द्वारा the time everyone else was already in the water. Quill and Embry were too busy trying to dunk each other while Leah and Seth were jumping off the ledge. Sam was carrying Emily twirling her and exchanging jokes. We hopped of the bike and I took off my cover slip. This time Jake blushed.
“Shall we? “ I asked as I broke off into a run teaseling towards the समुद्र तट cool waters. Jacob laughed and joined behind me pinning me as he jumped into the water. We laughed and started splashing each other and trying to out swim each other as we had done in the good ole days. He was defiantly right though. He had learned how to swim way faster than me.
“Aw man!” I yelled when we reached the cave which was the finishing point. The water reached below my chin as I tread facing him smiling. “How did आप learn how to swim like that!”
“I told आप I have acquired many skills” Jacob laughed. “Ha ha I beat आप chump. What’s the अगला competition?” he asked smiling. I laughed and swam closer to him. I planted a किस on his his wet lips and he started to किस me back. WE laughed and kissed under the cave opening. Before we started to hear a sound that sounded like an animal growling in the distance. Jacobs head shot up and turned to face me.
“What the hell was that?” I asked with my hands still around his neck.
“Stay here, आप understand? Jake told me. He pulled me up with one hand and sat me on a rock on the lower side of the cave. “Do not leave this cage till I tell आप alright Lilly? He asked me with a urgency in his voice. I got a little scared from the sound.
“Fine okay.” I कहा quickly looking at his worried face. He planted another gentle किस on my lips and swam so fast I couldn’t even see him leave. I heard और sounds in the distance this time और loud. I felt my body grow hot, I couldn’t tell if it was from the fear that ran through my body या not. I heard और growls and became concerned with everyone else. I wanted to listen to Jacob but I was too worried. I lept off the rock and started to swim near the cave opening. The water felt way कूलर than it originally did. I felt sharp pains in my feet as I peddled forward. Wow fear really had a physical affect on me I thought .
I peeped out the corner of the cave opening praying that everyone was safe. I heard और roars, and ripping sounds. I couldn’t see as far as I wanted to. I swam closer desperate to make sure my प्यार ones were safe. As I grew closer I saw 7 figures on the shore. And than I saw them. There where about 6 of them. They were in the shape of wolves, but a lot bigger than your normal wolf. They were strong and fast and powerful like those described in the legends of our tribes. I saw a pale white figure in the middle of them crying in pain as they dismembered its body. “No! “ I screamed. I had imagined that it was a human they were attacking. I knew there was nothing I could do about it but I still swam closer in hopes of finding Jacob and the others to make sure they weren’t in any danger. One of the tallest भेड़िया turned to face me with its dark deepset eyes. I panicked and found myself staring back. It saw me. It was staring at me. I turned around to swim back towards the cave yelling Jacobs and everyone elses name. The pain in my legs grew deeper and deeper. My skin began to burn against the cool water. I grew और and और in pain. I yelped and gasped for air as I felt myseld starting to pull under the water.I grew और and और mad that coundt find anyone. I felt the anger shoot through out my body. The pain in my legs were so bad that I couldn’t swim anymore. I twisted and turned under the water trying to find the strength to swim back to the top; My lungs began to burn as I gasped for air. The last thing I remember seeing is a furry figure grabbing me and its mouth and pulling me gently up towards the top.
No, Not now!-Jacob
I paced anxiously outside of Lillians room door while Billy and Emily were inside with her. They wouldn’t let me in. This made me so mad, that I cursed every curse word possible at everyone who came my way. Paul sat slouched on the floor on the side of the door with his hands in his face.
It wasn’t supposed to happen like this. She wasn’t supposed to have a near-death experience when we exposed ourselves to her. I felt a deep pain in my stomach. If anything was to happen to her, how would I live on? This wasn’t even the damn plan. Hell we didn’t even discuss how we would come out to her yet. If it wasn’t for this stupid bloodsucker who came out of no where to try to attack Emily. Damn, I thought. We knew the reason why she couldn’t swim back to the cave had a lot to do with the fact of her about to phase. Already? How could I let this happen?
“Shes fine. Jake आप can calm down” Billy assured me as he came out of Lillys room. “She is breathing normal and her temperature went down a couple of degrees. She was really close to phasing. Wouldn’t have been a good thing if her first time phasing was in water.” Billy sighed and wheeled past me. I opened the door to find Paul already beside her holding her hands. “ She okay Jake. Ill leave आप two alone for a little. Maybe this is a good time to tell her” I could see the pain in Paul’s eyes as he got up and placed her hands in mine. I could tell her really trusted me with this.
I kissed he lightly on her cheek as I put her hand to my chest. She looked even और beautiful . She slept so peacefully. I still was in pain at the thought of almost loosing her. But I had to tell her. Before it was to late. I was much harder for girls to survive their first phase than guys. I had to prepare her.
“Jake?” She weakly opener her eyes and smiled a weak smile at me. “Thank you. They told me आप were the one that pulled me out.”
“Yea I answered weakly” I was still miserable to see her in pain. “im so glad your okay. आप scared me Lilly.” I कहा as I kissed her hand.
She gave me the strongest smile she could give me. This was it, I had to tell her something. But not now, she wasn’t in her right state of mind. I wanted her to be stronger than how she was now. There was no way I wanted to inflict anymore pain on her..not today. I pulled a small lil फूल out of the pouch I kept around my ankle for my clothes whenever I phased. Yea it was a little cliché, but I knew it would make my प्यार happy.
“For आप twinkle toes” I smiled as I positioned the lilly on the side of her long black hair. She smiled again, this time a little stronger than the last.
“Oh Jake how corny. But thanks anyway.” She kissed my hand and laid her head in my lap. I don’t think she noticed my heat, she was already hot her self. Damn…that means its getting closer and closer to her first phase.
“Hey Lily, I have to talk to आप about something important. When your feeling a little better. Im sure आप have a lot of सवालों about what you’ve seen at the lake. But right now get your rest. Im going downstairs to talk to Sam and Paul and tell the others your alright, okay?”
I think she noticed the worry look on my face. I could tell she was contemplating on asking what was wrong, but seem like she was already so confused with todays events that she rather not intervene. She smiled again,
“Okay. Will आप promise me to come back later tonight though? I doubt I will get any sleep tonight.” She asked.
I could sense the fear in her voice. She really must have seen और than I expected today. So this meant that I had to explain things sooner than I thought. Darn.
“Sure chump. Get some sleep ill be back in an घंटा या so. I promise.” I kissed her again on her forehead and fluffled her pillows. I made sure she had plenty of water beside her and piled the most फिल्में I could carry in my two hands with the remote on the night stand. i gave her another kissed and left. Damn here goes nothing. They were already downstairs in deep conversation. It was Sam, Paul, Quill, Embry and Seth. Good Leah isn’t her I thought. Didn’t feel like hearing her annoying mouth tonite.
“So?” Paul asked. “How the hell did all this happen? And where the hell did that blood sucker come from? I only thought the Cullens were left here. No other.” Everyone stopped and stared when I entered the room. Guess they didn’t really know what to say.
“Jake, I think आप should go to Edward and Carslisle in the morning. Tell them what happened and ask them if they know of any वैंपायर on the lands. Either way, they broke the treaty. We have to work fast, this could pose a threat to all our फ्रेंड्स and families.” Sam कहा slowly. He looked tired from hunting with the rest of the pack. While Lilly was resting when we brought her back we found the scents of two और वैंपायर that we didn’t recognized and circled the lands. They were nowhere to be found. That means there were two और filthy blood suckers around here somewhere. Great.
“And ill go talk to Granma Lilly about her vision. She कहा the other night she saw Lilly phasing. But it was in the present of Vampires. I hope shes talking about the Cullens. So just go get some rest Jake.” Paul said. I could tell he was dead tired too. And shook.
“Okay. I will. But I need to tell Lilly soon. The signs are all here now. All it takes is for someone या something to make her mad and it’s a wrap.” I कहा gloomily. Everyone looked at me with remorse. They could tell how much this hurts me. I didn’t want her to have this same fate as I did. Though it wasn’t all bad, it was still hard to see her suffer in the beginning. I didnt know what I would do if she got her. या worst…didn’t survive.
“Okay Jake. Get some rest. WE all need rest. Do आप want Quill and Embry to make a couple of rounds tonite?” asked Sam. Darn I forgot they were members of my pack now.
“No it’s alright. Everyone go घर and rest.” I turned around with no goodbyes and headed back to Lilly’s room. She was fast asleep. Good, I didn’t really feel like talking. I gently lifted her warm head and sat it on my lap. I laid down beside her and began to rub her hair. She was so pretty. He skin the same color of mine was so beautiful against her long black silky hair. And oh my God when she smiled…I didn’t प्यार anything और to see her smile. Her eyes were a pretty shade of brown, with a pretty slant to them. She was perfect. And well not to mention her petite body and shape. I didn’t even think I could sleep now. I had to much damn things on my mind. What was going to happen when I told Lilly? Would I even be able to tell her? Would she get scared and run away? I knew Lilly was tuff. She had been through और than I have in some circumstances. But this still didn’t change my mind. I wanted to stop this. I wanted to get rid of those filthy bloodsuckers that triggered this change. I had to. For her.
I woke up the अगला morning mad at myself for even falling asleep. For वेयरवोल्फ it was so easy for us to fall into a deep sleep whenever we had the chance too. I know I had to be snoring. Bella use to always complain about that. And than I thought about it. Damn wasn’t I a genius. I had to get to Bella right away. To her and Edward to sort this mess out. I got up and yawned as I stretched my arms. Than I notices Lilly wasn’t even beside me. I automatically panicked.
“LILLY!” I screamed at the चोटी, शीर्ष of my lungs. I didn’t really care if I woke up Mrs. Lillain. Im pretty sure she would wonder where Lilly was to. And Paul. I was doing them a favor.
Phase- Lily
When I heard Jacob yell my name I almost slipped and fell in the shower.
“Jake im in the shower!” I replied. The soap slipped out my hand and landed on my toe. Surprise enough it didn’t even hurt that much. I was so focused on making the शावर, शॉवर as cold as I could. I was burning up.
I got out the शावर, शॉवर dried off and ringed my hair. I was exhausted. I felt like crap. My head was still hurting, my feet legs. Hell every part of my body was aching. Everything was spinning. I was glad that Jake stayed with me last night. But I still didn’t feel that much better. And lets not to mention, the events that happened left me confused. And a little scared.
I washed my face and pulled my hair back down. I headed back into my room to find Jake lookin worried. As if I was kidnapped या like I wasn’t myself.
“Are आप okay?” Jake asked. “You scared the living crap out of me Lil. How are आप feeling? Any pain? आप need anything?”
“No thanks Jake I’m fine” I smiled back.
