The Hunters and The Hunted ~ A Jacob Black story~

Chapter 4 - Staying over

Emilys POV

I was pulled into a huge hug by Quil. Still crying. " I swear, I'm going to go to church more often." He said. Which made everyone laugh at him. I didn't quite understand what was going on. But I'm glad I got to make someone smile.

" What he's saying, its that your God sent dear" Emily explained. I nodded and walked into the kitchen.

" It's Jacob right?" I asked stoping before him. " Yeah" he smiled handing me my phone. I let out a sigh.

" When, when you found me. You didn't see anyone else,did you?" I stammered. 

I couldn't stop looking at his eyes. They were so brown. I've never seen anything like it. They were amazing. It was a moment before I realized that everyone was staring at me. I cleared my throat and took a step back from him.

" No, it was you. Just you" he said. I jumped when my phone vibrated in my hands. Which were cold, once again.

Luca

I pushed back the tears that were brimming in my eyes.

" Luca" I said choking back a sob.

" Oh thank God" he sighed.

" Where the Hell are you?" he asked.

" F-forks. I didn't know where else to go, my Dad and Tyler are meeting me at the house tomorrow." I said.

" But, I mean. I felt you die Emily" he said.

" I'm okay. But, Tylers mom" I said walking away from the kitchen a little more.

" She's dead, Luca" I cried.

"Fuck" he said after I heard a smashing sound.

" Will you call them for me, I just. I don't want to deal with it right now. Call my dad and tell him that I'm ok and that I'll see him tomorrow, ok?" I said.

"Don't be scared" he said

" I'm not scared" I lied

" Okay, I love you. Stay safe" he said.

" I love you too, bye"

I sat quietly. Trying not to be rude, interupting their converstations. They were one big happy family. I sent smiles to the ones that looked at me. Which was mostly Jacob. Not that I complained, he's very sweet.

" Emily, do you need a place to stay tonight?" Emily asked. I was taken back. These people didn't even know me and they were going to let me stay in their house.

" The boys were going to stay over and have a movie night" she added.

" Thats really sweet, but you don't have too. I was just going to walk to my house, well. I mean. I'm not moved in yet, but I still have a few things there and-"

" Okay, then she's staying" Quil said shoving some steak in his mouth. I laughed.

" Really, you don't have to." I smiled. " Please, I'd love another girl in the house, even if it's just for a day" she said. I smiled. She was so nice. But in the back of my head, I was slapping myself repeatedly. I couldn't trust these people. I can't trust anyone. Not even the people in my circle. I mean, theres not much anyone can do but kill me. They can't take my magic, they can't kill anyone but my dad and my circle to get to me. I don't want to let these people in. It will put them in danger.

" So, who's Luca?" Jacob asked. " Yeah, is he your boyfriend?" Seth asked.

" Yes, no, hmm.  No, he's not my boyfriend. He's a very close friend." I smiled.

" I have a question." I said. " Anything" Sam said.

" Why'd you call Dr. Cullen, when he is infact and vampire and your all werewolves. I thought they didn't get along" I asked.

It wasn't a moment after that when Paul spit out his food. " Paul" Emily scolded.

" Who the hell told her about us?" he snapped. " She already knew" Sam growled.

" Sorry, I didn't mean to-"

" Your fine." Jacob said, sending me another smile. Which in turn, gave me butterflies.

" So, what are you?" Paul said leaning into the table. I was shocked. They don't know.

" I'm a witch" I said simply.

" Show us " Paul demanded. " I can't" I said.

" Why not?" he asked. Jacob growled.

" I can't tell you that." I stated. " Paul, leave it alone" Sam ordered. Paul growled. It wasn't a mintue after that, he threw a cup of water at me.

" Oh Honey, let me get you some new clothes" Emily said.

" No, it's ok really." I said gritting my teeth.

I slowly held my hand over my tank top and started pulling water droplets from it. I held my position. I dragged the huge water bubble over to Pauls cup and dropped it in.

" You're welcome" I smirked.

I was shocked that I was able to do that. Something had to have happened when  I died, I got my indiviual magic back. I was still bound with the circle. I was just so mad. Beyond pissed, infact.

" Excuse me" I said standing up from the table. I quietly walked outside and looked at my phone. The calls kept calling. Which, indead answered my question. We had our individual magic back. I sighed and sat on the edge of the porch. I held my legs with my freezing hands.

I should be dead. I shouldn't have killed them. Even by accident.

" Hey"

I turned around to see Jacob. Standing, without a shirt.

" Hey" I smiled. I was getting really good at this. Faking. Most people would call it being fake. Which, I guess it is, in a way. But it's about being who you need to be to protect you and the people you love.

" Pauls an asshole" he laughed. " No, he's fine." I said.

" I've never been good at making friends"
