Chapter 11

Embry was still fast asleep, at 8:30am, when I went to get him so I could take him home, but he looked like he hadn't slept in months so I didn't wake him up;

I just teleported him to my car, which I got this morning with the help of my brother Peter, who called me this morning at 6am to tell me that he had a car that I could have and that I only had to teleport it to me, that all the paperwork for the car was now in my name and good to go.

Peter had given me a black 2012 jeep wrangler Rubicon, which I fell in love with straight away. It was big enough to fit 3 or 4 wolves in comfortable and still have a bit of room to move, so they didn't over heat or feel suffocated.

I teleported Embry to the back seat of my Jeep, whilst making sure that he was comfortable and stayed asleep until I got him home, he was going to need to the rest he could get to get himself through the next couple of days if not weeks.

I went back into the house to get everything that I would need, keys, car keys, phone, money and some other things that I might need today, then I made sure that I looked alright, I was wearing white slim fitted vest top, my black leather jacket, ripped denim jeans, a dark grey scarf and my black leather boots. I left my hair down curly because I couldn't be bothered with it today but it looked good still.

I went back to the car and started driving to La Push, I would have to pick Seth up along the way and then drop off Embry, which I hope Seth doesn't mind but we'll see what happens.

I rang Tiffany last night and told her where her son was and that he knew who is father was, she was crying a lot, apologizing and asking for forgiveness, I told her that Embry was sleeping and that I would bring him home tomorrow and that he needed time, she agreed and said thanks before hanging up. I just hope everything goes okay today.

Whilst driving through La Push everyone was staring at my car, I guess they didn't see big and shiny cars very often around here, which is understandable because from what people have told me not much happens in La Push.

I got to the diner with 5 minutes to spare and spotted Seth straight away, wearing what he said he was going to wear, red top and blue jeans, standing outside the diner, playing on his phone.

I honked my horn whilst parking at the side of the road, also waking Embry up who jumped and head-butted the roof of the car, I could see Seth, and everyone else in and outside the diner, looking at my car with wide eyes, I flashed my lights at him and he started heading towards us.

"What the Hell!" Embry said whilst rubbing his head and looking around trying to remember how he got here.

"Rise and shine sleeping beauty, how'd ya sleep?" I asked whilst dropping the window as Seth got closer.

"Good, I think?" Embry said sound confused "How did you get me in the car without waking me up?"

"Teleportation, it comes in handy sometimes," I say just as Seth reaches the car, "Howdy, You must be Seth?" I say smiling.

"Yeah and you must be Bella, right?" He said smiling.

"That I am, hop on in Seth, I just need to take sleeping beauty back their home, I hope you don't mind?" I said whilst pointing towards Embry who looked about ready to fall back asleep, I hit his leg, "Hey! Don't you fall back asleep on me, I ain't carrying you out the car and you can sleep at home, now wakey wakey" Whilst I was telling Embry off, Seth got into the car silently and when he had his seat belt on I drove towards Embry's house.

It was quite and tense in the car and no one was talking, so I guess Seth knew that Embry was in Sam's 'gang' and he wasn't happy that Embry was in the car, whom is a friend of the person of whom hurt his sister, so this wasn't good and I could see Seth shaking a little, I had to get his mind off Embry.

"So Seth, How's school going for you?" I asked

"It's okay" He said giving me a little smile before staring out the window

"Any subject you need help with?"

"Um, I guess math and science, I'm okay at them but I would like to understand them more" He is such a good kid, not many kids study willingly only when they have to.

"How about I help ya with that?" I asked, he nodded smiling more now than before, "How old are ya Seth?"

"I'm 15, and I'm a sophomore" He sounded so proud of that, I had to smile.

It didn't take me long to find Embry's house and when I pulled up I was met with the sight of not only the pack but also Billy Black, and I was not happy, I didn't see Paul or Jared so I assumed that they were on patrol.

I looked at Seth to see him glaring at Sam before parking the car, I turned to Embry, "Well this is your stop" I said but he didn't get out, he just sat there staring at everyone, "Embry" I touched his arm and pushed to get his attention, "Are you going to be okay?" I asked looking in to his eyes.

"Yeah, I just don't think I can go in there with him there" Embry said scared, he was scared and I don't blame him.

"Do you want me to help?" I asked, he nodded, I smiled, "Then come on then," I turned to Seth "I won't be long, okay sugar" I smiled before getting out of the car.

I started walking towards the pack with Embry right be hide me, when Tiffany came out the front door.

"Embry!" She yelled before running then hugging Embry with everything she had, "I'm so sorry I didn't tell you, I wanted him to tell you, please understand, I lo . . . " Embry interrupted her

"Mum I understand, Bella helped me last night, she fed me, calmed me down, talked and helped me understand your side. I'm not mad at you mum, I know why you didn't tell me, I'm just really tired right now and I want to go to bed" Embry hugged Tiffany one more time before walking into the house.

"Thank you Bella," Tiffany said before hugging me too.

"Anytime" I said hugging her back before letting her go,

Tiffany turned to face Billy, and said "I want you off my property, you can talk to Embry at another time" before heading for the door.

"No! I have a right to talk to my son!" Billy yelled at her and I lost it.

"Oh so now you fucking care!" I yelled at him, startling Tiffany, "Sorry" I said to Tiffany, who nodding then walked in side to talk to Embry.

" . !" Billy was seething, but so was I.

"Why? So you can try a be big daddy now and hope everything will go back to normal, or so you can tell him what responsibilities are now his because of his bloodline, or how about changing his last name to Black, so your name still lives on as the alpha bloodline because I know that's what you want, but your forgetting something Billy, Do you want to know what that is?," I said but continued without him answering me, "Where were you for the last 16 years of Embry's life, when he asked everyone if they knew who his father was almost every day, or how about every day you saw him you could of told him, hell he even looked up to you as a father figure so he would of been happy if you had told him then, but then he phased and you still didn't tell him and that was the time that pissed him off when NO ONE came to him, to the point that he felt unwanted and unlovable because his own father didn't want anything to do with him, but you all let him believe that Joshua Uley was his father because of what a scum bag he is, but at least Joshua Uley knows what spawn is his and he'll own up to that, he doesn't leave them in the dark, he isn't the most caring basturd in the world but he knows who his children are and so do they," I can't believe I'm talking nice about Joshua Uley! My God I need help.

It was silent in the yard, no one spoke a word, and the pack were looking at the ground or at Billy, who had paled. I walked forward a little until I was in front of Billy and stared him in the eyes.

"Did you know that I had to stop Embry from coming to find you last night because of how badly he wanted to kill you, that's how enraged he was, I had to pin him down whilst he was screaming at me to move so he could phase and track you down and rip you to shreds, and after I calmed him down enough he cried because the people he loved and trusted the most lied to him, about the one thing he wanted to know more than anything in this world, so I suggest that you go home and leave Embry alone for a while, trust me he is going to need it." I turned around to head back to my car when Sam got in my way, I saw Seth get out of the car but didn't come any closer. "What do you want Sam?" I spat at him.

"Thank you, for what you did for Embry"

"I didn't do it for you Sam, I did it because believe it or not I am a nice person and I like to help people but there are always dick heads in the way, causing more damage that doesn't need to be done."

"Why haven't you been with Paul?" He asked, changing the subject, which pissed me off.

"Oh I'm sorry, did you not see me talking to him last night at that bonfire or are your eyes failing you" I said sarcastic.

"You don't have to be so sarcastic I was just asking a question" He said annoyed

"That's true, but the world has given me so much material to work with and I wouldn't want to be wasteful" I said with a smile, I was pissing him off.

"You know, some people say that sarcasm is not an attractive feature in a woman" Sam said looking impressed with himself for thinking of something like that.

"Luckily, I don't give a shit about those people" I said laughing and so were the rest of the pack, Jacob must of taken Billy home because they were both gone, I could see Seth laughing as well as he was recording this all on his phone.

"Your kind of a bitch you know that"

"I don't care what you think of me Sam, because it can't be half as bad as what I think of you"

"Why do you hate me so much, I've done nothing to you, and for what happened last night, I wanted to say sorry, I shouldn't of attacked Paul but you shouldn't of scared Emily" He said shaking a little in fear of me hurting him again.

"I don't hate you Sam," I said ignoring everything else he said, whilst putting my hand on his arm "Hating you would require an emotional commitment" I patted his arm before heading to my car, where a still laughing Seth was, "Come on you, back in the car, let's go have fun away from unwanted company," I said looking straight at Sam, "Oh by the way Sam, if Paul wants to see me, he knows where to find me."

After that both myself and Seth got back in the car and I drove away, Seth still laughing because he had decided to re-watch the video on his phone.

"I can't believe you said that to Sam, no one dares to say anything to Sam because everyone worships the ground he walks on, have I told you that I love you for saying that. . ." He continued this for a few minutes before I needed to know where I was going.

"Seth, breath," I said smiling "Where do I go now?"

"Oh yeah, sorry," He said blushing with a sheepish smile, he then gave me directions to his house, about 5 minutes later I was parked outside his house, standing in front of me was an small brown painted house, surrounded by trees with a little clearing for a garden, the house had flowers in the windows and a white door.

"Bella, I know I called you about coming today to hang out with myself, Leah, Collin and Brady but can you help me or better yet Leah?" He was looking at his lap and fidgeting by the time he finished his question.

I felt sorry for him for even though he was not asked or pushed to help his sister, he did any way out of love, loyalty and respect for Leah but it was still a weight on his shoulders that no 15 year old should-bare, Leah is the older sister and should be looking out for Seth but he doesn't seem to mind, Seth needs to be having a childhood because he won't be able to have one fully because I know that he will phase soon, I can pro-long it but not forever, I haven't met Collin or Brady yet but from what I saw from Leah's memories they don't either, I know Leah tries to give them one so I think that should be my first step in this because even though the boys don't have much fun around here, I don't think Leah does either and that stops today.

"Seth, look at me," I asked whilst putting my hand on his, which was on his lap, I waited until he looked at me before I continued, "Of course I will help Leah, I only met her yesterday and you today, and I have been told by many people around La Push and Forks that I should avoid the Clearwater children, because they are not the nicest people in the town, if I were to come here, but here I am and I believe that I can make two amazing friends in you Clearwater's and that everyone else in this town and Forks are all blind pricks, if they can't all see what a girl hurting looks like and if yawl's own town won't help ya, then I sure as hell will." I said staring into Seth's eyes the whole time to show him that I'm telling the truth, Seth had tears in his eyes by the end of my little speech, and without warning jumped me and engulfed me in a hug that was almost suffocating.

I hugged him back whilst he sobbed into my shoulder, he kept saying 'thank you' into my shoulder and I don't know if it's for saying I would help or for believing him and Leah instead of the town but I think it is a little of both and that is sad, because it is obvious that Leah's in pain from heartbreak and nobody gives a shit apart from her younger brother and his friends, Leah even lost all of her friends too so it wasn't just Sam that left her it was her friends and her parents too, and they don't just judge Leah, they judge Seth too because he wouldn't stand with Sam and this is just a guess but I going to say they Collin and Brady are also judged too, and then here I am a complete stranger to them and because I believe them Seth cries in disbelief because I want to be his friend, I can feel my hands shaking in rage because of this and the next time I see Sam or the elders, I'm punching one in the face, they never should of allowed this to happen, pack or not Leah is a member of their tribe and they should be protecting their tribe from anything even themselves, who the fuck are they protecting now because it sure as fuck isn't the Clearwater children.

I pat Seth's back and he starts to pull away from me, ducking his head so I can't see his blood shot eyes, he seemed to be ashamed to have shown a weakness in crying but he shouldn't be ashamed of this.

I reach into my bag and pull out some tissues to wipe his eyes with, I pull his chin up to me but he tries to pull away but I'm having none of that so I pull his chin a little harder, nothing that will hurt something just to get his attention, but he closes his eyes so he doesn't see me, I lean over and kiss both his eye lids whilst letting the feel of trust wash over him, I then wipe his tears away with the tissue.

"Seth, you have nothing to be ashamed of not to me anyways, if you ever feel like crying, screaming, ranting or just want a hug again, you know where to find me I won't be too far away," I said whilst undoing my seat belt, I noticed that Seth's was already undone, he must of done it whilst I was staring at the house, "Why don't we go inside okay?" Seth just smiles and nods his head.

We both climb out of my Jeep and I lock it before heading towards the house, Seth leads the way and then opens the door yelling "Hey everyone, I'm home!" I shut the door behind me, I could hear music coming from upstairs but it wasn't that loud and I could hear two sets of footsteps coming from the kitchen, which I am guessing are from Collin and Brady.

Two almost identical boys are standing in front of me, who are just a little shorter than Seth but not by much, the only difference in them are that they both have short hair but one has gelled spiky hair and the other has just left it, I think he'll have surfer hair when he's older, the one with spiky hair has a few freckles on his nose but apart from that you would think they are twins instead of cousins.

"Hi, are you Bella?" The surfer one asked.

"Yeah, that's me, who might you be?" I didn't get an answer straight away for I was nocked back a bit from being hugged again. What is it with me getting hugged the past few days?

"I'm Brady Fuller," He said from my collar bone, "Thank you, for saving my sisters life." He wasn't crying but I think he was going too soon.

"You're welcome," I said patting his back, I looked over to who I guess is Collin who looked like he wanted a hug too, "You must be Collin Littlesea right? Kim and Brady's cousin?" He just nodded and joined Brady in hugging me, "Well it's nice to see you both." I looked over to Seth only to find that he wasn't there and that I could hear footsteps from up stair.

Collin and Brady both pull back the moment we all heard voices from upstairs that belong to Seth and Leah.

"Seth, why do I have to come down stairs?" Leah asked

"It's a surprise, now hurry up!" Seth said, which makes me realise that Leah doesn't know that I'm here. I could hear footstep on the stairs now which I am standing right in front of.

"Fine but if you even think of pranking me again I'm going to shove my shoe right up you. . ." Leah stops when she sees me, "Bella?"

"Hey, no offence but I don't want your shoe there," I say smiling with my arms crossed, as Leah realized what she said and starts laughing whilst Seth has a huge grin on his face, Brady and Collin try and figure it out and once they do they start giggling like little girls, I just start shaking my head at the whole thing. Once the boys calm down Leah asked,

"Bella, what are you doing here?"

"Seth called me" I said pointing at said person.

"Surprise!" Seth yells.

I AM SO SORRY THAT ITS HAS BEEN SO LONG, I'VE BEEN SUPER BUSY.
