A few weeks had passed since Bella left to save her blood sucker according to dad she was back and with her came the local leeches. We were still on high alert with the red head blood sucker out there. I was spending less and less time at home most of my time was spent either on patrols or with Natalie. Nights where the worst especially when she first came home she was having these awful nightmares about her parents, those went away quickly but now she was having nightmares of something happening to us. She had come so far in accepting her parents death since moving here and had created a whole new family with in the pack all of us being protective over here including Paul though he would probably never admit it. I understood now though how they all felt when they would stand watching her. We knew she was very capable of protecting herself but we were also all too aware of how breakable she was and that made us all nervous and now with the imprinting and all there would be no way I would allow her to go out with us when we tracked the red head. I wasn't going to let the leech anywhere close to Natalie and put her in danger.
I was walking up to Emily's place with the others on our way to lunch when Natalie came barreling out of the back door.
"JACOB!!" She called as she ran to me she caught me off guard as she jumped into me wrapping her arms around my neck as I fell backwards.
I laid there and blinked some as she sat up and smile sitting on my stomach.
"You just saw him this morning Natalie" Sam said as the others stood there looking at us.
"I know but I have amazing news" Natalie beamed
"What's that?" I asked
"You guys remember how I tried out for the big production that's going to be preformed over in Seattle right?" Natalie said looking around at everyone
"Yeah" Paul said crossing his arms
"Well I had originally been casted as a extra or back up but the lead female twisted her ankle and won't be able to perform and they just called and asked me to be her stand it" Natalie beamed
"I'm going to be the lead in the production" She beamed down at me.
Sam quickly scooped her up off of me swinging her around as we all hooped and hollered.
Leah huffed and walked away from the group.
"Don't mind her Natalie" Seth said with a smile
I wrapped my arm around her waist as we walked back to Emily's place for lunch.
I was so happy for Natalie she was a wonderful dancer and she was perfect for the part. Its basically a story about a Prince the is out to avenge the death of his family who was killed by a Wolf and has many run ins with this Beautiful Maiden at night who does not speak as well as a majestic white wolf during the day who believes killed his family since wolves are not common in the forest he is hunting. In the final battle he discovers the White wolf is the Princess who his parents had been bringing back to him for him to marry when they were killed the wolf he sought was actually a magic man who cursed her so she would marry him instead. When the magic man attacks the prince I able to defeat him and lift the curse.
The days went on us tracking the Red Head with in our boundaries Natalie spent most of her time up in Seattle or at the dance studio in Port Angeles by time she did come home she would eat and then fall asleep. I was starting to worry that she was over doing herself. I stood in the door way of her room the sun was just starting to come up and she was sprawled out on her bed he school books and papers taking up the free space on her bed.
"She didn't get in until two this morning I don't know when she fell asleep but she said she had to study for a test she had today in class." Emily's voice came from behind me
I sighed and walked over to her knelt down next to her bed and moved some of her silk hair out of her face. She always looked so peaceful and content when she was asleep. I brought my lips to her forehead kissing her softly.
"She needs a break" Sam's voice came
"Good luck convincing her of that opening night is three nights away." Emily said
"Keep her home from school she can make up her work later she needs the rest" Sam said walking over to her alarm clock shutting it off.
"Go ahead and move her book Jacob and get some rest but anything funny and I will kill you" Sam said
I nodded I know I had been driving him nuts with my worrying thoughts about Natalie the only time I got to see here was when I got off of patrol and she was asleep. Sam was putting a trust in me that he hadn't had for the past couple of weeks since me and Natalie slept with each other. I moved her books making sure not to disturb her and then climbed into bed pulling her close nuzzling my noise into her hair. Everything in me calmed knowing she was there safe in my arms.
The sound of my Rabbits horn wailed in the air as I sat outside in front of Sam's house several other cars parked in the front. We had all gathered at Sam's place so we could caravan up to Seattle to see opening night of Natalie's performance. Everyone was taking their sweet time I was not going to miss this for anything. She had worked hard to get all ten of us tickets; I stuck my head out of the window and hollered.
"Come on guys if we don't go now we are going to be late!" I called
With that everyone began filling out. Embry pushed my dad out to my car since him and Jared where ridding with me Emily and Sam were taking his truck and Sue had Leah, Seth and Paul in hers.
"I don't see why I have to go" Leah huffed
"Oh come on Leah it's going to be fun" Seth said all smiles.
Paul didn't say anything but he didn't look happy to be going. The rest of us where excited to be going we wanted to see Natalie up on stage doing what she enjoyed. We all made sure we were dressed in our finest as we all pulled out of the yard and started the four hour trip to Seattle. Natalie had been staying in a hotel for the past couple of day due to putting final touches on costuming and dress rehearsals.
The drive was long and we did have to make stop for drinks and bathrooms. Before we had left we had gotten three walking talkies just so we could stay in touch with each car on our way over. Seth being the kid he was found this very exciting saying it was like a recon mission. He might have been part of the pack but he was still a kid. We were all relieved when we finally made it to the theater. We found out seat which by luck was the entire front row. We sat down Seth practically jumping up and down in his seat. Leah sat there with her arms crossed just wanting the whole thing to be over. Dad's chair was pared at the end of the row designated for wheel chairs. I sat in the chair next to him with Sam and Emily on my right Embry next to Emily then Jared and Paul talking about a baseball game that they had caught earlier today.
It wasn't long before the lights dimmed and the auditorium became quite. The curtain rose and the show began. We all watched intensely as the dances came and went. Natalie looked radiant up there the stage truly was where she belonged. She was so graceful when she moved across the stage everyone else in the auditorium seemed as mesmerized by her as the rest of us. I wasn't the least bit jealous of the man who danced with her. I knew there was nothing that could force us apart. I felt the smile spread across my face as she danced. The ballet was long which was expected but it seemed to go by so fast. We all stood clapping when the curtain fell at the end. When it rose again it reviled the whole cast Natalie and the lead male in the front they walked forward and took a bow by themselves. I stood up and went to the Stage handing her a bouquet of flowers I had bought earlier that day. She walked back to the cast with the male and the whole cast took one final bow as the curtain fell for the last time that night.
We all waited outside for her after the show. She walked out with her dance bag dressed in sweats and tank top her hair pulled up in a pony tail her makeup still done from the performance. Sam was the first one to take her into his arms. You could see the pride in his eyes, Emily went after him and then she came to me and wrapped her arms around me laying her head on my chest. I held her close
"You looked wonderful up there" I whispered
She turned around to everyone keeping her arms around me.
"Thank you for coming everyone." She smiled
The all gave her congratulations and said how good she was. We managed to find a dinner still open so we all could get something to eat. I drove Natalie's car back home that night Embry drove mine home. She had been working so hard she couldn't have to make the drive back.
"Thank you for coming Jacob" Natalie said looking over at me from her seat.
"I wouldn't have missed it for the world" I smiled stealing a quick look over at her.
"Everything seems to be falling into place doesn't it" She sighed
"Yeah it does now all we need to do is get that leech and everything will be fine" I said keeping my eyes on the road.
"I came here only a few short months ago and so much has happened. I thought that I was always going to be alone." Natalie said softly
"I promise you Natalie never again are you gonna be alone." I said looking over at her.
She smiled over at me the moon highlighting those eyes that first caught me the day she showed up in our class. They were heavy with sleep and I knew that the sparkle that had returned to those eyes shone for me and always would.
