Chapter One

Bella's PoV

Why does everyone I love have to leave me! First Ed... him, and now Jacob! I refuse to become a zombie, like last time. I won't put Charlie through that again. I saw the pain in his eyes when he looked at me when I was going that. It would be so much simpler if I saw Jacob and talked this entire thing over with him, like civilised people. At least then I would understand why he won't hang out with me anymore. I made up my mind, I'm going to go see Jake, and if he won't see me, well, I'm not above camping out in my truck until he will. Let's hope it won't come to that though.

I took off my ratty old sweats and pulled on a long-sleeved white stretch-cotton top and a pair of skinny jeans, and quickly pulling on my blue Converse high-tops, and grabbed my bag. It was Sunday, so Charlie was home, the usual Forks rain having kept him home from his fishing trip with Harry Clearwater.

I ran down the stairs with renewed energy.

"Dad! I'm going down to La Push!" I called out as I neared the front door. I got a grunt in return.

My truck took awhile to start. It must be dying, after how long? Great. Another thing leaving me.

"Bella!" I chastised myself out loud. "Don't think like that!"

The drive to La Push seemed to take forever, and when I finally pulled up at Jake's place, I was impatient. I got out of my truck and walked purposefully to the front door, and knocked on it harder than I probably should have. Jacob answered. He was over 6ft now, 6ft8 probably, and covered in thick muscle. It brought me back to my comment on my birthday, when I said that anabolic steroids were really bad for him, and it made me wonder if that was something I should be worried about. His hair had been shorn off and his face was cold, but I was positive it was Jacob. How much could he have changed in 2 weeks?

"Bella," Jacob said, his voice cold. "What do you want?"

"I wanted to see my best friend, Jacob. Is that a crime?" I answered back, hurt.

"Well, I don't want to see you." He growled back, his tone hard.

"What? You don't want to see me?" I whispered, trying to hide the pain in my voice, the hole in my chest threatening to rip open again.

"That's what I said, Bella." His voice held no emotion now, his face still cold.

"What have I done, Jacob!?" I suddenly shouted "Why are you pushing me away?! Oh, wait, I know the answer. You thought I was a toy, and now you're finished with me!" I yelled, my anger getting the best of me.

"You don't know anything." Jacob replied. I saw a flash of emotion cross his face briefly, but then it was gone and his emotionless mask was back in place. This only made me angrier. I started shaking.

"Maybe you should go, Bella." He said, his voice wary now.

"I already was!" I shouted, angry tears running down my face. Instead of going to my truck, I headed for the forest, still shaking. What had I done to deserve this!? The two people I loved most in this world, leaving me. I picked up my pace, and started jogging, angry thoughts replaying over and over in my head.

Doing what is quite a normal thing for me, I tripped over a tree root. This, however, only served to make me angrier. I started shaking even harder, until I felt like I was going to explode! It felt like my bones were breaking and reforming. Then all of a sudden, I heard the seams of my jeans ripping and the fabric of my top stretching, then Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip. I looked down at the ground, panting, and gasped. Where my feet should have been were giant white paws.

"Oh My GOD! Why does everything bad always happen in bloody forests?! First he leaves me in a forest, ALONE, and off the trails! And now I turn into a giant wolf in one! Fitting though, he left me so I could live a normal human life, but I go and turn into a fucking monster" I thought bitterly.

"Bella!"

So, what did you guys think? Constructive criticism would be great, but no flames!

See you next chapter!
