A/N: It’s Day two of my week long vacation and I was able to sit down and get Jacob’s POV to Chapter 4 written up. I got it typed up pretty fast this wasn’t really the route I was planning on taking with his POV but Jacob insisted this is how it went so. Here it is I’m probably going to grab some lunch and then begin on Natalie’s POV of Chapter 5. I’m Not 100% sure what’s going to happen in Chapter 5 Natalie hasn’t told me yet so I’m excited to see what happens next in this love story. Until then Enjoy.
I was in my garage with Quil and Embery It was getting close to the time we had to leave for the Bon Fire. The two others sat around drinking my soda as I worked but my mind was more occupied with something else, Natalie. Lately she has been on my mind more and more. Her eyes that I first saw as seductive and dangerous had a completely different look to them and few actually if someone dared to look, they became soft and gentle when she smiled a genuine smile not the one that she put up for the guys at school, you could also from time to time when she slipped she the girl that was hurting and missing her parents. Though she grew up with money unlike the rest of us kids here on the reservation she doesn’t flaunts it or brag. She was beautiful, and friendly she was as Quil had said so many times in the past few weeks she had been here perfect.
I was so lost in my thoughts about Natalie that I hadn’t heard my dad calling me in to come in to clean myself up. Quil had to throw a small rock at me to get my attention.
“Day dreaming about Bella again I see” Quil smirked
“And what if I was, it’s none of your business” I growled
Bella…now that I thought about it as I walked back with Quil and Embery I don’t think I had thought much about Bella recently. I was either thinking about Natalie or her now days. I should give Charlie a call tomorrow see how she was doing I couldn’t remember the last time I had called. I walked into the house and washed up my hands and arms before going into my room to change out of my greasy jeans and shirt and putting on clean ones. The four of us walked down together I pushed my Dad’s chair when he wasn’t able to wheel it himself. I wondered if Natalie was there yet and if she would even come at all. Was she the type of girl who liked going to things like this?
Once I got dad situated next to Harry Quil, Embery, and I headed for a open space on the beach to toss the foot ball around some expect Quil got side tracked by some girls sitting on some drift wood. I don’t think Quil would ever change his ways there was no way I would let him get a hold of Natalie best friend or not she didn’t need to be hurt. My thoughts continued to center around Natalie as Embery and I tossed the foot ball around.
As my hand sat ready to catch the ball Embery and just thrown I saw our local Angel jump up grabbing it out of mid air with a laugh and that smiled that placed a twinkle in her exotic blue eyes.
“You want it back you have to catch me” She laughed her voice like chimes on a rare sunny day in the spring before she ran off.
“You asked for it” I laughed chasing after her.
She was fast and so graceful she moved almost like a….dare I say it but she moved like a wolf running through the forest with out a faltering step with speed and grace. I couldn’t help but wonder if this came from her dancing. I saw her leap up and then before I knew it I was eating dirt. I looked up saw Natalie turning around it almost seemed like slow motion with a smile and laughing eyes. Her laugh began to ring out loud as she laughed at the sight of me holding the football close to her. I took this chance while she wasn’t pay attention to get up and tackled her to the grown with out hurting her pinning her there. She was still laughing as I took the ball from her.
“You looked hilarious like an cartoon” She laughed now holding her sides.
I held out my hand for her I pulled her up off the ground.
“I’m so happy you find it amusing.” I said
Her laughing began to subside as she looked up at me. Her laughing was disappearing but that smile and that twinkle in her eyes didn’t disappear as she calmed.
“Here you missed some” She said standing up on her tip toes some to brush some sand off my face.
Her hands where soft and gentle and warm in the cool evening air. She seemed to have this soft glow about her in the light of the setting sun. It made me happy to see her genuinely smiling and having a good time. Embery jogged up behind me I hadn’t even realized he was running behind me.
“I was begging to think you weren’t going to show up you keep disappearing on us” I said
“Yeah well I was working on something and kind of got caught up in it. If you ever want me just come over to the house” She said as we walked back to the part of the beach the occupied the others from the reservation
“Yes because we want to be greeted by your cousin” Embery said
“Sam is hardly home during the day and if he is chances are he is probably sleeping” She said pulling her blanket closely around her.
“What dose he have a night job or something” I asked last I knew Sam didn’t have nay sort of job was this something new.
“Wait let me guess it’s complicated” Embery said rolling his eyes
“You got it Embery so glad to see you’re catching on” she smiled ignoring his sarcasm
“You know you could tell us we aren’t as dumb as you might think” I laughed
“I’m not aloud…” she said softly looking down some I saw that twinkle start to dim.
Then she looked up at the people that stood around mingling we saw Emily and Sam with Sue and Harry Clearwater Sam was watching her or was he watching us with her either way she smiled and waved. I’m sure Embery was feeling as comfortable as I was with the look in Sam’s eyes as he took one last look at us before turning back to his conversation.
“Don’t worry you two really.” she smiled at us
She spent the rest of the time with Me and Embery she didn’t really seem phased by Quil flirting with other girls which relieved me because now I knew he wouldn’t be able to fool her and she wasn’t interested in the least in Quil at lest in that matter of speaking. We ate laughed and talked about funny situations we got our selves into when we where younger. As the sun disappeared the music and dancing began. Natalie sat next to me with Emily on the other side of her and Embery on the other side of me. She smiled as she watched her cousin and his friends dance to the beat of the drums. After a few rounds around the fire he grabbed Natalie’s hand and pulled her up. I smiled as I watched her dance she seemed free when she danced she moved with more grace than when she was running if that was even possible. That twinkle in her eye grew ten fold she was in her element with the music circling in the air and the fire lighting up the area around us allowing to see the fluid movements of the dancers. Then I saw Sam lean into her and whisper something as the music began to change and some of the elders began to chant she was then left alone in the glow of the flames.
Her movements started out slow and she continued to dance. Her hair and her blanket seemed to move with the rhythm of the song as well as her feet. I knew the song my mother had sung it to me as a little boy when she would put me to bed. I was mesmerized by Natalie’s movements everyone disappearing around me leaving only the sound of the drums, chanting, crackling of the fire and the waves on the beach. Just before she came to an abrupt stop I heard another old but familiar sound the sound of my mothers voice.
“She needs you Jacob” Her voice echoed.
I was snapped from my daze as I heard clapping. Natalie brushed herself off and tugged her blanket closed and avoided eye contact with everyone and walked away from the circle of people leavening the Bon Fire. Sam who had been sitting opposite side of Emily stood up and went after her. I heard him call after her I looked behind me and saw the two arguing at lest it looked like that but I couldn’t make out what was being said. That twinkle was gone though I could see that and the dangerous eyes where back. As I watched my mothers words echoed in my head, who did she mean who needed me. Natalie couldn’t of needed me she was capable of get on by herself and she had just been the happiest I had seen her since she came here. She was defiantly close to finally being happy around here. Maybe she meant Bella maybe it was Bella who needed me. That had to be it MY mothers voice must had been my subconscious telling me not to forget about Bella I had been so wrapped of in Natalie I had forgotten about my Bella. When I saw Sam heading back this way and Natalie walk the opposite direction I turned back around I would let her calm down and go check on her. She was my friend after all and that’s what friends did they make sure other friends where okay after fights. I would make sure Natalie was okay tonight and then starting first thing tomorrow I would where to start with my Bella.
I stood up on the cliffs a good couple of yard away from Natalie as she stared up at the moon. Her hair was whipping around in the salty air as the waves crashed against the rocks below. She looked like a one of those women you see in fancy tragic paintings waiting on the cliffs as they seem to glow in the moon light waiting for their love to come back from the sea. I knew if I looked into her eyes now I would see that hurt girl eyes filled with pain and sorrow. I hated those eyes it made something inside of me wake up made me angry and want to rip apart anything that caused such pain and sorrow to enter her eyes. I took a few steps forward and I hear her sigh.
“You should be enjoying the Bon Fire with everyone Jacob” she said not taking her eyes off the moon.
My eyes widened she was good how could she possibly know it was me. “How did you know it was me?”
“I listen to my surroundings and memorize there sounds you have very heavy foot steps but they are gentle as well like your walking on glass.” she replied
My heart leapt for a second when I heard that she had memorized my footsteps she said they where gentle. I made me get that warm and fuzzy feeling knowing that she actually paid that much attention to me. I mad my way next to her and looked up at the moon as well.
“Why aren’t you at the Bon fire Jacob” she asked
I shrug trying to hide my enjoyment in my new found knowledge though I didn’t know why it made me so happy. “I don’t know Quil is still trying to get lucky with some of the girls and Embery was getting ready to leave he doesn’t feel comfortable a lot of the times at big events. Why did you leave you looked like you where having fun dancing and then you left”
“Did Sam send you up here?” She asked looking over at me. I had been right there was the pain and sorrow but there was a flint of annoyance. I clutched my fist trying not to show my anger at the look in her eyes.
“No but I saw you guys arguing and you looking pretty upset so I thought I would come and see if you where okay” I said figuring it would be a safe comment it wasn’t like this was the first time I had come to see if she was okay after she had been upset.
“Sam doesn’t want me to stop dancing he is being hypocritical in some ways he keeps pushing and the pushing it’s getting to be to much is all. I haven’t had one day to be me since my parents died and I just want one day with out having to be reminded that everything is different now. Sometimes I just want to run and not look back start off some where new where no one knows me” She said I saw the annoyance disappear but the pain and sorrow still lingered. She must have thought Sam sent someone up here to talk to her about the dancing thing again.
“You are starting off new here Natalie none of us knew you before you came here. Most of the guys seem to like you. I like you I’m here for you if you ever just need to escape. You need to get out of your cousin’s house you let your self be coupe up in there too often.” I said looking back at her. What was I saying this could end up badly sure I wanted to be there for her as her friend but what if I was busy with Bella. I didn’t want her to think I was being fake.
“Maybe I should check out that dance studio in Port Angeles then give me an excuse to get out of the house. To escape everything for a few hours” She sighed
“You seem like you really enjoy it your very good as well, I would come and see your performances if you wanted I’d even drag Quil and Embery along if it made you feel better” I smiled there I went and did it again. If she did have a performance there was a performance I didn’t know if I could really make it not with Bella being so unstable how could I change this around.
She laughed some a small spark of that twinkle came back. “Wouldn’t your friend Bella get jealous if you where sneaking off to watch another girl dance.”
I was relieved that she had factored in Bella as well so hopefully she knew I meant well but also knew it would be difficult for me to hold up on my statements but then It hit me I knew how I could keep at lest one of my offers. “Nah Bella likes that kind of stuff she would probably want to come as well. You two are alike it certain ways you would probably become friends”
I couldn’t help but smile inside I would be able to give Natalie my support and help Bella. Bella liked that artsy stuff books, art, I’m sure she would like to see some dance performances and it would get her away from home and things that caused her the pain she felt now.
“Maybe…” She said looking back at the moon hugging her blanket tighter around herself. That twinkle seemed to disappear again she became quite as she just stared at the white moon.
After a few seconds of silence with the moon high in the sky we could hear a lot of whooping and hollering as well as drums coming from down on the beach.
I don’t know what got over me to cause what happened next but I couldn’t help myself.
“Happy New Year Natalie” I said bending down and placing a soft chaste kiss on her cheek before walking away.
I was flabbergasted with myself was I walked back to the beach I just kissed Natalie. Sure it wasn’t on the lips or anything but I hadn’t even done that to Bella my Bella. I was starting to wonder if Natalie was some kind of witch and had put a spell on me. I couldn’t help but laugh at the idea it was stupid I probably just got caught up in the moment and thought she needed a pick me up or something yeah that had to be it.
