Christmas came and went with me locking myself in my room for most of it. This Saturday there was suppose to be a huge bon fire for new years Sam said I had no choice I had to go. I was sitting on the couch dressed in sweat pants and a t-shirt my hair was in a messy bun and black rectangular framed glasses sat on my face as I muddled around on my laptop with the TV playing some soap opera that Emily was listening to as she was in the kitchen. Sam and the boys were out on patrol one of the reasons I felt safe to come out of my room. Emily didn’t look at me with sympathetic or worried looks or ask me if I was okay. I was drawn away from my computer with a knock at the door. I got up placing my computer on the couch and walked over to it. I opened the door and saw Jacob, Quil, and another kid I didn’t know.

“Hi Jacob come in” I said standing to the side

“Thanks” He smiled stomping his feet cleaning them of snow the two others followed his lead.

“This is Embry the one I told you about” Jacob said motioning to the new kid once Quil shut the door.

“I Embry I’m Natalie” I said introducing myself.

“We haven’t seen you in a while so thought we would come see if you were okay” Quil said

“Yeah I had a little bit of a cold before Christmas so I just kind of bummed around the house.” I replied going over to my laptop closing it.

“So what’s up” I asked looking up

“Well we were wondering if you wanted to go do something like catch a movie in port angels or something” Jacob said

“You should go, get out of the house for a little bit it will do you some good, I’ll cover for you with Sam” Emily said appearing from the kitchen

“Hello boys” Emily added with a smile

“Are you sure?” I asked

“Yes go, I’m sure your car needs to run some” Emily said

“Okay if you guys want to check out what’s playing and times feel free to use my laptop while I go get changed.” I said standing up

I disappeared into the bedroom but could hear the boys starting to talk about what movie to see. I went to my closet and pulled out a simple pair of jeans and then pulled a solid pastel pink stretchy long sleeved v neck fitted shirt. I quickly got dressed and pulled the hair band from my hair and ran a brush trough it. I didn’t feel like messing with my contacts so I left my glasses on. I grabbed some socks and my purse and keys off my dresser. I walked into the living room and found the boys on the couch with Jacob in the center with my laptop on his lap.

“So find anything good” I asked sitting down in a chair

“Yeah the new Agent 0 movie is out you into movies like that” Quil asked

“Yeah that’s fine with me” I said pulling on my boots.

“Cool we will have just enough time to get there and get popcorn and drinks” Quil smiled

I nodded and stood up walking into the kitchen.

“Well I’m heading out if you guys need me back earlier…”I began and looked to the living room and lowered my voice “Have Sam get a hold of me”

“Okay you have fun Natalie and just make sure you are home by dinner I’m making beef stew tonight” Emily smiled

“Yum I’ll make sure I’m home even if I have to drag the boys out of the movie theater” I said and gave Emily a hug.

She hugged me back and then I headed back in to the living room.

“Come on guys” I said heading to the door.

Once I had made it to my car I turned around and faced the three boys twirling my keys around my finger.

“Jacob how would you like to drive her?” I asked with a smirk

“Your joking I can drive your car?!” Jacob asked as his eyes grew in size.

“As long as you promise not to damage her” I said unlocking my passenger door and then tossed him the keys.

Jacob rushed to the driver’s side of the car as I pulled my seat forward to let the guys into the back. I heard Quil mumble something about how he should have been the one sitting next to me. Once Embry and Quil were in I pushed my seat back and got in. Jacob adjusted the seat and mirror and then started the car up with a huge grin on his face. My CD was still in the player and the song that was now escaping my speakers was perfect by Simple Plan.

Quil leaded up from his spot behind me “really Natalie are you sure you haven’t fallen from heaven or something, first cars and now the music seriously”

I heard laughing coming from Jacob and Embery.

“Only in your dreams Quil am I truly perfect” I said turning around to look at him as Jacob drove.

Quil sat back in his seat “No I’m pretty sure you’re perfect in real life to”

I turned around in my seat facing the front if he only knew how messed up I really was.

After a few minutes I turned around again and looked at Embery “So Embery Jacob tells me your home schooled.”

“Yeah” He replied

“I was home schooled for most of my life, Sam wouldn’t let me continue when I moved here you think you could talk him into changing his mind” I said with a wink

I smiled when it earned me a smile and a laugh from the quite boy.

“I don’t think anyone can change Sam’s mind once he has made a decision. He thinks he is god or something” Quil said

“He wasn’t always like that you know things are just complicated right now he has a lot on his plate” I said looking at the boys in the back seat.

“What do you mean Natalie” Jacob asked

“Well he is my only cousin my mom was an only child and Sam’s dad was my dad’s brother they were the only two and Sam is an only child. He use to come out and visit us a lot when we were younger.” I began as I remembered the summers him and his family would come and visit us in Georgia.

“I was really shy when I was little and clung to my family. Sam was always really sweet and gentle with me even though he is only four years older than I am, he acted like he was like ten years older than me. Always protecting me from the boogie man and stuff like that. That same Sam is still in there it’s like I said complicated” I explained

“That doesn’t sound like the Sam we know at all” Quil said

“You can never judge a person from a distance; I mean you guys assumed when I first came to school I had money. Yeah I might have more than what is normal here but I’m not rich. My parents were really smart with their money both of them had life insurance so along with what was in savings and all that I have enough to help my caregiver until I’m about eighteen and with my trust fund that will pay for my school if I decide to go. But my family would not have been able to buy this car off the lot with out saving up for a few years.” I explained

“I guess but that doesn’t mean he gets to act like he is god” Quil said

“Well maybe one day you will be able to understand” I said turning around facing the front.

The drive was filled with different little conversations. After Jacob parked my car I got out of the car and saw the teenagers staring at us. I moved my seat forward to let the boys out. I really didn’t like being stared at. Jacob met us on the passenger side of the car as I shut my door making sure to hit the lock button out of habit. I walked silently with the boys as they chattered. We bought our tickets and got our drinks and pop corn and headed into the theater. I ended up sitting between Jacob and Quil and Embry sat on Quil’s other side. Everything was going good the movie was filled with action as well as the lead actors own battle to abandon his withdrawn ways for the beautiful damsel he was trying to save. Then it hit I knew this wasn’t going to end well when Agent 0 began to talk about his past with the woman how he became an agent raised to kill to exist but not at the same time. As his voice came from the speakers black and white pictures began to flash across the screen showing a small boy with his parents. I began to take deep breaths trying to calm myself. MY eyes began to sting as a loud bang erupted and the father sank to the floor and the mother clutching onto her son pleading for mercy. If I was going to have any chance of coming out of this movie sane I had to leave now. I got up slowly and whispered to the boys that I was going to the bathroom. They would of probably thought this was a boring part anyways. So I stood up and slowly made my way out of the theater and then ran as fast as I could to the bathroom. I was in luck the room was empty. I fell to my knees as the tears began to fall as images of my own parent’s death flooded my mind.

I was going to get through this I had to I couldn’t fall apart with the boys here I had to get control of myself. I had friends and if they knew how messed up I was I would lose that. I had to pull myself together with out Sam’s help. I couldn’t always run to him he had bigger things to worry about than me falling apart. I don’t know how long I cried but once I was able to stop I stood up taking my glasses off and splashed some water on my face and looked in the mirror. I took in a few deep steady breaths before I grabbed some paper towels and dried my face and hands and walked out of the bathroom putting my glasses back on. Standing there in the empty hall waiting patiently with a worried look in his eye was Jacob.

My heart fluttered some and couldn’t help but give a soft smile as he made his way over to me. Jacob was a friend that I knew I would always be able to count on and trust. I would die before I would let that go.

“Are you okay?” Jacob asked softly

“I will be” I said my voice still a little shaky.

“Still that hard for ya then” Jacob asked

“Sometimes, it gets easier with every challenge” I sighed

“Sorry If I ruined the movie for you” I said

“Don’t worry about it, Bella is kind of in the same situation or I guess same mind set if I can’t help her at lest I can help you” Jacob said

“Your sweet Jacob” I smiled

I looked at my watch the movie was about twenty minutes from being over and I really didn’t feel like going back in there.

“Why don’t you go back in there and finish up the movie with the guys I think I’m just going to go out side and get some fresh air.” I said looking to the theater door.

“Nah that’s okay I’ll just tell them you aren’t feeling to good a need some air and I’m going with you just in case” Jacob smiled

His smile was breath taking like a sun on a warm spring day and so caring like a mothers hug.

“If you want to but I really will be fine” I smiled

He had absolutely no idea how well I could take care of myself but according to Sam he would soon it was only a matter of time before Jacob joined the pack. Jacob headed back into the theater as I headed out to the front. I wasn’t alone for long as I leaned against the wall looking up at the sky.

“So from what I hear Bella’s break up was this past September it’s now December almost the New Year and she is still out of it?” I asked

“Yeah she got hit hard by it she isn’t talking to anyone from what I hear she is like a zombie. Charlie tried to send her home and she went ballistic” Jacob said

“I’m sorry” I said

“Me too I wish she would let me be there for her but she just doesn’t respond to anything” Jacob said

“I know what its like. After my parents death I was numb to everything I felt like I was just stuck in a dream like it wasn’t really happening and then at night everything just flooded back and I would just sob. I guess I snapped out of it quicker than Bella is because of my grandmother she wouldn’t allow me to wallow saying I had no right to when it was my fault and she was the one who lost something precious. My numbness and pain quickly turned to hatred and anger towards my grandmother. I strived at the school work so I could graduate and possibly find a quicker way out of her house” I explained

“Well looks like you got your wish of getting out of your grandmothers” Jacob said

“Yeah I wouldn’t have expected to end up here but it’s not as bad as I thought it would be. Though there isn’t much to do the people are nice” I smiled

Before our conversation could continue the boys spilled out of the doors with other people.

“Oh man you guys missed the best ending every” Quil said

“There were these awesome explosions and gun fight oh ma” Embry smiled

“Sorry guys my fault” I said looking over at them.

“How are you feeling any better” Quil asked

“Yeah the fresh air has really helped.” I smiled

We walked back to my car with the guys giving us a detailed description of what we had missed. Jacob walked around to the driver’s side pulling out my keys and unlocking his door then ours. Embry and Quil got in and then pushed my seat back and getting into the car shutting my door and putting on my seat belt. Embry and Quil took care of noise for us as they continued to talk about the movie the whole ride home. It didn’t bother me because I really didn’t feel like having to explain my fake illness or anything to the boys.

Jacob parked my car in front of Sam’s house and we all got out with Jacob tossing me my keys.

“So Natalie you going to the bon fire this weekend right?” Quil asked

“Yeah I’ll be with going with Sam and Emily” I said

“Maybe well see you there then” Jacob smiled

“Most likely” I smiled

“Natalie…” Sam’s voice called

We all turned to the door to see Sam, Paul, and Jared blocking the light from the house

“Do they live with you guys as well?” Embry whispered

“No but they are like permanent fixtures to the house or maybe its just Emily’s food. Either way I have to head in I had fun guys we should do it again some time”

“Defiantly” Jacob smiled

The boys left as I ran up to the house Sam moving out of the way placing a hand on my back guiding me in. After dinner was finished I disappeared into my room. I could hear Sam and the other boy’s talking still in the kitchen. I sat down in front of a trunk that sat at the foot of my bed. It was as wide as my bed and was made of wood. On the top of the lid was carved a wolves head howling in side a moon. I took a deep breath before I gently lifted the lid. I had, had this trunk since I could remember when I was really little it served as a toy box and then slowly just became storage for odds and ends but when I moved to my grandmother it became my treasure it held what I had left of my parents. Albums old trinkets of theirs all the physical things that I could hold that proved that they were here at one point. I lifted out a quilt that my mother had finished just before she died. It had family pictures on it as well as some lace from my mothers wedding dress and a piece of the blanket I was brought home in. I set the quilt aside and picked up what I was looking for. I simple wooden jewelry box I set it in my lap and opened it up setting on top was the thing I was searching for. I gently picked up a hairpipe choker necklace. It had four rows of russet colored jasper and howlite beads carved bone spacers as well as amber colored buffalo horn hairpipe beads. She heard a knock on her door before it opened. He turned to see Sam standing there.

“Your mother’s necklace” He said softly

“Yeah I was thinking about starting to wear it” I replied looking back at the necklace in her hands

“I think it would be good for you to wear. I’m sure she would have wanted you to” Sam said

“How can all of you welcome her with open arms but my grandmother shun my father and all of you as well as me just because we are different” I asked softly

“Your mother wasn’t born part of the tribe but she was in heart Natalie. She embraced the heritage and didn’t try to pull your father away from what he was apart of. Your grandmother is just one of those people who can’t look past differences.” Sam said walking over and sitting down.

“Here” Sam said holding out his hand

I handed him the necklace and he then wrapped it wound my neck and tied it. I sat the jewelry box down on the floor and stood up turning around and facing my dresser mirror that sat across from my bed. Sam stood up and bent down so he his head rested next to mine.

“You look as beautiful as your mother Natty” Sam smiled

I couldn’t help but give a soft smile.

“Well I just wanted to come in and tell you good night before Jared and I headed out for patrol.” Sam said standing back up.

“Night stay safe” I said

“Always” Sam smiled as he walked out of my room.
