JACOB DIDN'T WASTE ANY TIME in pulling the first bike- the red one, which was destined to be Bella and I's- apart immediately. He had explained to us earlier that the bikes would be safe within his garage since Billy wouldn't be able to make the trip with his wheelchair. The ground was too uneven to move out here by himself.
Bella was currently sitting in the passenger seat in Jacob's Rabbit, while I was sitting on a creeper; which I figured out it was a device to move underneath a car easier. We were all happily chatting, my greatest shock was Bella. She actually seemed like she was coming more out of her shell than I've seen her all weekend. She was actually participating in the conversations- even though most of them were Jacob and I updating on our lives. He would talk about how his sophomore year was progressing and I would talk about how school was back in Jacksonville. Currently, he was telling us about his best friends that he hangs out with.
"Quil and Embry?" Bella questioned, picking up the uncommon names. "Those are unusual names."
Jacob chuckled in response, "Quil's a hand-me-down, and I think Embry got named after a soap opera star. I can't say anything, though. They fight dirty if you start on their names- they'll tag team you."
"Sounds like the best of friends." I joked while I nudged Jacob's leg with my boot-clad foot.
"They really are. Just don't mess with their names."
I nodded my head, "Duly noted."
"Jacob?" An echoed sounded from outside of the garage. Bella and I shared a look of worry before turning back to Jacob.
"Is that Billy?"
"No," Jacob ducked his head low almost like he was embarrassed, the red in his cheeks brighter than a few moments prior. "Speak of the devil, and the devil shall appear." He mumbled under his breath.
The shouting voice started getting closer, "Jake? Are you out here?"
"Yeah!" Jacob shouted back before sighing and shaking his head lowly. Again, I shared a look with Bella, but this time I was more curious than worried.
