Stuck In Between (Twilight Fan Fic)

Chapter 13

We silently made our way to Jake's house, only for me to start mutternig curses.

"What's wrong?"  Paul asked confused.

"Bella's here."

JAke walked towards her, and then she noticed us. She glared, making me actually feel bad. Bella asked to talk to Jacob alone, and after a hesitant moment, Jake went with her.

Afrter a while of impatiently waiting Jacob came back looking kind of lost.

"I'm sorry Jake," I whispered  giving his hand a light squeeze before shifting to wolf and running to the forest. I have to find Victoria now.

All that day I had to block out Jake's thoughts. They were annoying everyone... but I couldn't stop feeling bad. I had to talk to Bella again! She was now alone in all of this! It's all that stupid vampires fault. He's the one who started all!

I sighed as I stood up from my bed, unable to sleep. Who am I kiding? I miss them. I miss how we used to joke around, and prank each other. I miss how even though I always lost, Emment would be up for a re-match in arm wrestling. How Alice loved to shop every single thing, not really caring if it was useful. How I could talk to Rose about everything because she'll listen, but tell me what she really thinks. How Jasper was like a best friend to me, and we could do just about anything when bored. We once started playing bullshit... it was so funny because I knew when he was lying and he knew when I felt nervous he'd see through my lie. I miss Esme and Carlisle... how they truly actedlike my parents. I do have to admit... I missed my "brother" the most. Edward...when we talked, when we laughed, how he came to me about Bella... everything.

"Stop it," I muttered to myself, realizing I was crying. "They made it clear. They don't want me!"

I heard muffled voices downstairs, and realized to late someone was coming to my room.

"Cassie?" Paul asked from my door. "What's wrong?"

He turned on the lights and with one look at me, he came and sat next to me, engulfing me in a tight hug.

"What's wrong?" he repeated. 

"Sorry," I apologised simling half-heartedly. "It's just..."

I looked towards the door, where everyone was now. There was Emily... she took me in with no questions, acting like a big sister instantly. There was Sam, who saved my life once, and then saved it again when he took me in. I don't know what would've been of me if he hadn't. Jared was also there, looking at me concerned. He was now my best friend. Embry and Jake weren't here, but they're all like family now. 

I found myself smiling, looking at all of them thankfully.

"I was thinking about my..." I stopped. They weren't my family, Edward said so himself. "About the people I used to consider my family. I don't know why though... They've probably forgotten about me by now."

I laughed a little, but it was forced. I wiped the tears from my eyes as Jared sat beside me in the bed, putting a conforting hand on my shoulder. Thet's when I really smiled.

"Who needs them?" I asked laughing sinsirly. "I have a better family now right?"

Emily and Sam smiled, while Jared started pretençding to cry and hugging me. Paul rolled his eyes at the now laughing Jared and I stood up.

"I'm not sleepy anymore!" I said excited. "Let's watch a movie!"

"What do you want to watch?" Paul said smiling at me.
