Author’s Notes: Wow everyone thanks for the great first response! I never get many reviews for a first chapter so 7 in a span of an hour was amazing for me and I’m really grateful to all of those of you who reviewed it. And of course a special note of thanks to JenJenSon for being a brilliant beta and making sure my crappy spelling and typos (mostly typos from my brain going too fast for my fingers) and any other stupid mistakes get fixed! You wouldn’t understand a word of this without her help! Again I hope you all continue to enjoy the story!

Chapter Two: Fire

I watched him leave and then continued to stare at the door. No matter how much we hated each other and no matter how much we seemed to get into fights...the worrying thing was that he seemed to get me more than anyone. There’s no way Jake would ever let me do something so reckless and Edward definitely wouldn’t have.

Then again if it wasn’t for Edward I wouldn’t be in this mess. I should never have meddled in his life to start with but I just couldn’t help myself. I guess it really was how Edward had described it...everything about him drew me in.

~*~*~

~The Next Day~

~*I Woke up this morning
With this feeling inside me that I can't explain
like a weight that I've carried
Been carried away, away*~

“Bella you are crazy you know that?” Jake said, folding his arms across his chest adamantly; I rolled my eyes in response and moved away from him. “It’s too dangerous.”

Jake had been complaining all week about Sam’s plan. This weekend I was going to be staying with Sam and Emily, and Charlie certainly didn’t seem to mind me spending time with Jake and his friends. We had started laying my scent gradually from Folks to a designated spot just inside the La Push boundary far enough away from people that a fight would be a safe as possible. Sam’s plan was to have one of them in their human form and me in the clearing as if nothing was happening; as if we were just sat hanging out or something and the others hiding in the trees as long as they kept downwind she wouldn’t realise they were there. I was really scared, so scared my gut twist every time the thought entered my head, my heart pounded and pulse raced but I had to face this. I wanted to know that it was over, see it finished. I couldn’t let Jake see that I was scared either because I knew he’d play on it, he’d find a way to convince me not to go through with it. I wasn’t sure exactly how soon we were going to do it...but I figured it would be pretty soon.

“Sam already agreed, Jake.” Jared grinned at his friend. “Don’t make him force you to agree with him.” Jake just growled in response but thankfully dropped the subject.

“If you’re going to kill each other do it outside, I’ve just finished cleaning.” Emily’s voice called over them, from where she stood stirring some potato salad in a bowl on the side. “Shouldn’t you boys be down the beach already?”

“We’re going.” Jared replied.

“Take a plate with you!” she ordered, they did so and as they disappeared she shouted after them. “Don’t eat any!” I couldn’t help but chuckle as they headed out. She was like a mum to all of these boys...it must be nice to feel like you have this massive family, I’d always wanted a brother or sister.

“I don’t know how you do it.” I told her, picking up a plate myself.

“Easy, I train them, just like children....or dogs.” She replied.

“Good behaviour is rewarded by food, got it.” I laughed, headed out of the door.

The pack were all on the beach with a small bonfire, they’d set up big blankets on the ground full of plate of food, Emily was some cook! They’d also gathered a load of larger bits of driftwood and logs to use as seats.

“Everyone get ready to catch! Bella’s got a plate!” Paul yelled. I gritted my teeth and placed the plate on the blanket. I was grateful that for once I hadn’t tripped or dropped anything because that really would have been terrible timing. “What no come back? I’m disappointed.” Paul smirked and crouched down to pick a bread roll off of one of the plates.

“I’ll give you a come-back you jerk!” I shouted, “In the form of a fist!” I picked up a chip and threw it at him. Unfortunately he just opened his mouth and caught it then stalked over to me.

“Try it.” He smirked, leaning down close to my face causing me to turn scarlet. “Didn’t think so.” Then he was gone, jogging towards some of the boys in the water. How were they not freezing?! I know they’re warmer than most but seriously?!

~*So while this storm is breaking
While there's light at the end of the tunnel
Keep running towards it
Releasing the pressure, that's my heartache
Soon this dam will break*~

“I can’t believe you guys have been fighting all week.” Leah muttered, sinking down onto a log by the fire. “Can’t you cut it out for even a few hours? I don’t want to hear you bicker all night.”

“He starts it.” I replied, glancing in Paul’s direction thoughtfully. “He really doesn’t like me huh?”

“It’s not that he doesn’t like you...you just seem to provoke each other.” Leah replied. “I don’t know, but in his defence you are pretty clumsy and you did hang around with vampires for like a year.”

“In my defence he makes me nervous so I’m even clumsier.” I murmured. “He’s pretty scary.”

“He’s hard to get on with and you’re new to the group Bella, he’ll stop it eventually.” Sam added, up until now I had forgotten he was even there. “Hey boys! Meat’s done!”

Jake and Embry were there in seconds piling their plates full of food. Jared and Paul weren’t far behind and their plates were just as big. Seeing what they ate and what they looked like made me wish I was a wolf myself.

“This seat empty?” Paul asked, moving to sit on the log next to me, sure enough it was the only one left free...of course...

“Yup, and if you sit there; this one will be.” I muttered. He sat down and I immediately moved to stand up. He caught my wrist and pulled me back down.

“I don’t bite you know.” I said. His hot breath against my ear caused a shiver to shoot across my whole body.

“I was actually kidding.” I replied bluntly. “I was just going to get some food...if you guys have left any that is.”

I picked up a few bits of food to put on a plate and stood talking to Emily for a while, anything to get me away from Paul. Something about him made me incredibly nervous...it may just be the wolf in him but I always feel like I’m being hunted when I look at him.

“He won’t hurt you, you know.” Sam murmured wryly, reaching between us to grab some more meat.

“That wasn’t what I was worried about.” I replied. “I’m not scared of any of you.”

“See, she’s fine.” Emily hinted, encouraging Sam to leave us alone. “So if you’re not scared why are you eating stood up over here?”

“Because we don’t get along. We drive each other crazy. I’m avoiding confrontation.” I shrugged. “Besides I wanted to talk to you.”

“You’ve spent all day with me Bella. Go sit down.” Emily replied, nudging me back in the direct of my seat. “Trust me, give it time and Paul will thaw out.”

“Heat isn’t the problem, he’s hot headed enough for the both of us.” I muttered, heading back towards my original seat.

“Is that it?” Paul’s voice snorted in disbelief as I sat down. I looked at him to see him glancing offensively at my plate. “God no wonder you’re all skin and bones. Doesn’t the brain need a certain amount of food to function? ‘Cause I’m pretty sure that’s not enough.”

“Yeah well if you had studied half as much as you eat that maybe you wouldn’t have flunked out of college.” I retorted. He just growled in response and I looked away nervously. “Anyway I don’t have the ability to eat what I like and still have abs of steel so I have to eat a normal human amount.”

“Well baby you look just fine to me.” He murmured, lowering his face right next to my ear. My chip dropped from my hand to my plate.

“W-What?” I spluttered, trying to gather if I had actually heard him correctly.

“You heard me.” He replied, leaning closer causing me to lean back...unfortunately this was me so it meant my leaning back caused me to fall off the back of my seat onto the sand and Paul immediately burst out laughing.

“Bella?” I heard Jacob’s voice call over the others that were now laughing, I could hear the grin on his face as he spoke. “You ok?”

“Erm...yeah.” I mumbled. “You know me...” I got up and brushed myself off looking suitably embarrassed. “I think I’m going to go for a quick walk.”

I quickly excused myself and left my plate balanced on my seat heading down the beach. Hopefully when and if I came back my blush would have faded.

“Don’t trip! Or if you do don’t take innocent passersby with you!” Paul shouted, as I headed away from the bonfire and across the beach.

“Can it!” I called back, grinding my teeth. I stood looking at the water for a bit far enough away from the bonfire that no one could see me. No matter how cold and wet it could get there was something beautiful about it no question. I followed the water edge all the way to the end of the beach.

I didn’t care what Sam and Emily said Paul and I would never get along. We clashed worse than anyone I had ever met! It was like putting ice cream and broccoli in a bowl together. It just doesn’t work. We just couldn’t be around each other without fighting.

Not to mention that he appeared to have found an entirely new way to tease me...flirting with me to embarrass the hell out of me...wonderful as if the insults weren’t enough.

I kicked a couple of stones as I walked and headed up off of the beach and then into the trees, heading for the Jake’s house where my truck was still parked. Then something caught my attention. I froze as I sensed someone behind me. I felt a knot in my stomach and knew I didn’t want to turn around.

~*But I know something is coming
I don't know what it is
But I know it's amazing, you save me
My time is coming
And I'll find my way out of this longest drought...*~

I took a deep breath and started to turn. At the exact same moment a hand touched my shoulder and I screamed bloody murder.

“Jesus! What the hell are you trying to do kill me?!” I yelled, shoving the smirking wolf away from me. “Jesus!”

“Of course.” Paul muttered. “Only you would wander round in the dark alone when you know there’s a leech itching to get her teeth into you and be worried about dying of fright instead.”

“Shut up. I don’t need your help, I’m just heading back to Billy’s.” I replied, turning my back on him.

“No you’re not.” He said simply, “You’re going back to the bonfire with everyone else.”

“No I’m not. I’m tired I’m just going to grab my stuff and then head back to Emily and Sam’s to get some sleep.” I protested.

“You get two choices.” Paul snarled. “You either get back to the fire with everyone else or I will walk you to Billy’s and then to Emily’s and stay with you until everyone else gets in; you’re choice.”

“I think I’d rather take my chances with Victoria.” I muttered, but it wasn’t true. He knew it wasn’t the instant I said the words. I couldn’t even suppress the shudder of fear than ran through me. Unfortunately for me he was right; no matter how embarrassed and fed up I was I shouldn’t be wandering around alone especially now that we had been luring Victoria closer to here.

“Come on.” He said, nodding back to the beach. I hesitated a moment how tired was I? Not tired enough to allow Paul to chaperone me back to Sam and Emily’s for the night.

“Fine.” I sighed. “I’m going happy now?” He didn’t reply just walked behind me as we made our way onto the beach and back towards the fire. Obviously he didn’t trust me to walk behind him. Did he think I was stupid enough to try running from him?

“You’re cold.” He stated. I didn’t reply but wrapped my arms protectively around myself as the wind from the beach hit us. Then I gasped as I felt Paul’s hot arm drop around me and pull me against his side. I couldn’t prevent my body automatically pressing into the warmth. I didn’t care if it was Paul warming me up as long as I was warm.

~*It's the one thing that's missin'
The one thing you're wishin'
Life's sacred blessin' and then,
It feels like today*~

“God you guys are lucky.” I muttered. I felt a chuckled rumble through his chest and couldn’t help the corners of my mouth twitching up.

“I’m glad we have some uses.” He smirked.

“You mean besides protecting people and fighting bad vampires?” I asked, then I smiled to myself. “Portable heaters.” A laugh slipped out and Paul shoved my lightly away from him towards the water edge. I screamed through my laugh as one foot splashed in the cold water.

“You can figure out how to warm yourself up if you like.” He said, as I leapt away from the water.

“Now look what you did! My shoe’s wet!” I protested. “My foot is going to freeze now!”

“Don’t be a drama queen it’ll dry out by the fire.” He replied, rolling his eyes. “Come on.” We continued to walk up the beach but I had to admit I felt cold without his boiling hot skin against me. Suddenly I couldn’t wait to get near the fire again. Maybe I’d even go and cuddle up against Jake to warm up, since Paul had just proved how effective that is. I flushed with embarrassment as I thought about Paul having been so close to me. It was crazy for him to be making me nervous, I didn’t even like him.

“Hey Bella!” Jared called, as we approached the group. “Decided to come back to us!”

“Couldn’t resist, it’s too cold to wander off in the dark for too long.” I replied.

“And too dangerous.” Sam added.

“Sorry.” I mumbled. “I wasn’t originally planning on leaving the beach.” I went and sat on Jake’s lap and took his drink out of his hand.

“Hey!” he protested.

“Just a sip.” I grinned, downing a mouthful and returning it to him.

“You didn’t rip Paul’s head off then?” He asked.

“No, not quite but nearly when he pushed me and got my shoe wet.” I replied.

“I’m not sure I even want to know.” He murmured.

“Jake!” I exclaimed, slapping his chest. He just laughed and put down his drink to drop his arms around my waist. “Next time someone comes to find me I’d rather it be you, or Sam or anyone that isn’t Paul.”

“He’s not that bad Bella.” He chuckled.

“He is to me.” I replied, leaning back against him. “Next time you be the portable heater...”

“The what?” he asked me, but my eyes were closing as I leant back against him and I had to focus really hard to reply.

“Paul kept me warm, it was embarrassing.” I mumbled.

“Bella I hug you to keep you warm all the time, no biggie forget about it.” He replied. “Go to sleep, I’ll wake you when we head back to the house.”

“But Paul’s different.” I murmured, more to myself than to Jake. “We hate each other.” My last words were slightly slurred from a big yawn and my eyes closed again and I fell asleep.
