"Just tell me what I need to do" Bella nodded.

"Wait... hold on Bella... Are you sure you're going to be okay with someone poking into your brain like that? Will it be safe?" I asked, unsure, the second question directed to the doctor in front of us.

"Don't worry, other than a minor headache, it's pretty much safe. We also did all the necessary precautions to make sure that nothing will go wrong." He explained.

"Jacob... I know you're worried but I need to do this" She looked at me and I could see in her eyes that she wasn't going to let anyone get in her way even from someone who turns into a wolf.

I sighed in defeat.

"Fine but I'm coming with you" she was about to protest but I cut her off. "You know the situation we're in right now. I just want to make sure you'll be safe" I wasn't going to let her out of my sight. I promised her that we were going to protect her.

"Are you sure?" Bella asked concerned.

"Yeah, yeah. Just... give me a minute while I tell the others where we're heading" I told her and went ahead and crossed the road to enter into the woods opposite the Cullen residence. If I was going to phase, I'd rather not do it in their property.

I laid down my clothes and as soon as the phasing finished I could hear all the others already there.

Hey Jake! How's your little trip with Bella going along? Jared commented and was about to start joking when all the memories from earlier started to flow. That kept him quiet.

I'm going with her to Seattle.

Are you sure that's a good idea? Embry asked.

No but she's doing it anyway so might as well make sure she's okay while she's there.

Is she really from another world? Jared asked curiously.

Beats me

All right Jacob. Keep us posted and stay out of trouble. Sam ordered.

Sure, sure... was the last thing I said before phasing back to my human form and dressing quickly.

That was quicker than I thought. While wearing my clothes, I realized that I was glad I decided to wear a shirt for today or I'd probably be walking around in Seattle half naked. I didn't really mind it at all but that might cause too much attention which would probably get me into trouble with Sam.

When I got back, the Dr. Johnson guy was already behind the wheel while Bella was standing in front of the car waiting for me. At least, she didn't think about taking off without me.

"Everything okay?" She asked.

"Yep. Let's go?" I opened the car door for her and she went inside while I followed.

"Oh! By the way. Dr. Johnson, is it okay if we drop by some restaurant or fast food" Bella told him as he started the car.

"Sure, any place in particular?" He looked at her from the rearview mirror.

"First place we see would be fine. We skipped breakfast today so, just wanting to make sure we don't get hungry when we get there." She turned to me apologetically.

"I'm sorry if I can't cook for you right now. I'll make it up to you when we get back"

"Nah, it's all right" I told her. Inside, I was already thinking of saving my energy to last me throughout the day. Unfortunately, I wasn't one to bring any money with me especially when I knew I'd be phasing. Who would have thought that we'd be travelling to a city? Not sure how I was going to get my own food there but I'll probably get by.
