"Do you know a boy named Jason?" She asks. "No." I say. She holds up a picture. John... "That's John..." I say, w̉ỉd̉ẻe ẻyed. "What happened to him?" I say panicking now. "His real name was Jason Hangs. How do you know him?" J.J asks. "I met him at the beach. He's my boyfriend, Aiden's friend." I say. "Can you call Aiden for us?" She asks and I nod. Once I finally am in normal clothes, I call Aiden, telling him to get himself to the hospital. And to be calm, this was important. Once he gets there and answers questions, we leave, FINALLY! "What did they ask you?" I ask when we get in the car."Eh, just how I knew John. Well Jason. He's d̉ẻảd Liz. He shỏt you and ran, they said he had shỏt himself right after. He's been a criminal this whole time." He says, driving us out of the hospital grounds. I was speechless, so I try changing the subject. "What did you do today?" I asked. He makes a sharp turn, which makes my vision hazy. "Not much, just went over to Sam's. Then went out for work." He says. I nod. I feel myself needing to go to the bathroom. I try and hold it in. We finally make it to Aiden's house. I was to meet his parents today.I make it inside, go to the bathroom and sit next to Aiden in the living room. "Don't mention the baby. Nobody needs to know now. Later." I remember telling Aiden. "Hi. I'm Lisandee Lakes." I say and shake his mother and father's hand. We introduce, and talk, and laugh together, until it was 5:45. Almost time for another pack meeting... I take my phone out when we were walking out and text Sam. 'Can't make it to the pack meeting. Aiden'll be there. Change the time 2 7:00.' I text and close my phone. I sigh as we begin driving again.I feel my phone buzz. 'Why?' He asks. 'Just do it! U don't wanna know. The police are by my house. Move it till 6:30 then. I know they'll b gone.' I text then add, 'I gtg bye ;P' Then I totally turn off my phone. "Where are we going Aiden?" I ask, it sounded normal, but a slight shaken though. "To the pack meeting." He says, oddly. "Pack meeting is moved till 6:30." I say. He makes a U-turn that makes me shiver. I felt my stomach lurch forward as we stop at the stop sign. "Where are we going now?" I exaggerate, I knew I sounded shaken and sick then. He sighs and glances at me to see my knees to my chest, leaning my head on one of my knees. "You've met Jacob Black right?" He asks, which surprises me."Uh, yeah. He's in my home room and like, half my classes." I say. "Good, he just joined the pack with this kid named Embry. Jacob's father is Billy Black." He says, and I know what he means. Billy Black. One of the elders. I sigh. "Okay. Why?" I ask. He glances at me again. "What do you mean why? He's an elder Liz. It really doesn't have a reason, 'why'." He says. We pull into the driveway and I grunt as I get up. The car turns off and Aiden and I walk up the doorway. There was silent talking from the inside, and none at all when the doorbell rang. "Is Sam here?" I whisper. "No." He whispers back as the door opens. It was Billy who answered. Aiden grins as we both walk in hand in hand. He must have been here before!Jacob comes downstairs, with shot hair, and no shirt. Pants is all he has on. I had to turn my head to see his, because I was sitting next to Aiden.Not holding Aiden's hand made me feel vulnerable. I felt myself whimper inside. It felt miserable. The doctor said I had to sit up so I did. I feel myself slouch a bit, but straighten up, because the pain shỏt through me worse than the bủlẻt. Aiden notices my sudden movement and furrows his eyebrows. He taps my knee and I shake my head un-noticeably. We talk and laugh. I didn't try to sủck in to make myself look skinnier, because I knew it was bad for the baby. I wanted the best for him or her right?We go home at about seven o'clock. We had missed the beginning of the pack meeting. I go inside as Aiden rushes to the woods. I go upstairs and take a long shower. I suddenly notice, my parents weren't here. I hadn't seen them since the accident, well before the accident. I finish my shower,and get dressed in long pajamas. I look all over the house, to not find them. I try to calm come. Aiden would go home after this, leaving me home alone. I could handle being home alone, but where were my parents? I look in closets, everywhere. I calm down. They could be in the hospital. Or worse. NO! That would NOT happen. No no no... They would be home after school. Yes, yes they would. I calm myself down and watch T.V for a while. I go back upstairs and set my alarm loudly, and go to sleep oddly quickly.I wake up to a loud 'BEEP BEEP BEEP' noise. I groan and get dressed. I do my hair, so it was down, I clip my bangs back and eat a full breakfast. I sigh as I hear my bus. I go quickly outside and get onto the bus. I was tired, and my back hurt VERY much from the day before.
The morning passes quickly and I ignore the loud noises. Lunch comes, and I sit down, next to Aiden, Paul, Embry and Jared. I was to sit with them, because I was a werewolf. I just sat there, talked a bit, and ate. Aiden notices my mood. "Hey Aiden, aren't you supposed to be at home?" I pipe up. He looks at me. I see his eyes flash. He was angry. But we had imprinted on each other, so I knew we loved each other, even with arguments. I sat there, calm eyes, waiting for an answer. I knew this would end badly, but hey who cares? It's Monday!"Yeah." He says gruffly, so I drop it. He was mad anyway, well I was the one carrying around a human inside of me! He's going to be a father, and being a mother is less important?! We go though more pain than men! WE make life! I feel myself getting sad and angry. I feel myself stand up and walk away. I hear my name once, but keep walking. I go to the bathroom and stand there, looking in the mirror. Then I look away. I feel tears slip down my face. I felt sad and frustrated. Not knowing where to turn. I had one person's support. But he was a newborn werewolf, and even if he imprinted, there was no telling what newborns can do. To even those they loved.I don't hear it or see it, but someone walks in. "What's wrong Liz?" It was Becca. A good friend of mine, but still. She was a gossiper. "Nothing." I say, straightening up. I realize I was sobbing still. I turn the other way. "Go away. I'm fine." I say, trying not to shake. "I'll go tell Aiden." She says but I grab her. "No." I say. I had quit sobbing, but still let rare tears fall. "Go to the bathroom or whatever and leave. Don't tell anyone Becca. Seriously." I say, a bit annoyed. She fixes her hair and leaves. She was nice... But I knew she would tell at least one person. And it wouldn't be Aiden or anyone in the pack on my watch.I walk out of the bathroom a few minutes later, I hear the bell ring and I grab my stuff and walk away. I get to my next class right when the bell rings, which barely happens. I take a seat next to Jacob. "Hey." I say. "Hey, where'd you go?" He asked. "To the bathroom." I say. The teacher begins talking and I listen, just to get school over with.
I take take a ride with Aiden today, since we both stayed for theater. We make a small conversation on how Shakespeare spelled one word wrong, or it was the teacher printing it. We end that the teacher did it. I was staying at his house for the day, then I convinced him I was walking home as we pull up to his house.We walk in without a word, other than a greeting to his parents. We get upstairs and we both sit on his bed. I begin to start a conversation. "So, what do you want to do?" I ask. "Well... How about we go somewhere." He says, lightening our moods. "Sure, where?" I ask. Looking at the time. It was 4:56. "Well, how about dinner? After the pack meeting?" He asks. I nod and lean forward. We both kiss. I could feel my heart pounding. We stop just as a phone buzzes. We both check our pockets. It was Aiden's phone. He gets up and answers. "Work." He says and gets up. He walks out of the room and into the hallway. He closes the door behind him.I stand up. I wasn't that pr̉ẻgnảt lady that keeps sitting around eating. I wasn't even having cravings. I just realize something. We never checked up on the baby! Something could have happened! And... And the baby never had his or her heartbeat checked, or anything! We needed to check up on him or her! Aiden walks into the room to find me pacing. "Aiden, we never-" I get caught off to someone walking into the room. It was Jacob Black. I raise an eyebrow and look at him and Aiden again. Then back to Jacob.
