Secret Part 2

Jacob stared at Cassie for a minute before he busted out laughing. Cassie, Sirius, and Remus looked at each other.

"Jacob," Cassie said.

"Ahahaha," Jacob chuckled. "Ahhhh, that's funny, Cass. But seriously, what is it that you wanted to tell me?"

There was silence as Cassie, Sirius, and Remus all stared at Jacob, their expressions completely serious. Jacob looked around at them and said, "Come on. Joke's over. You're not really a witch, Cassie."

Cassie bit her lip and looked at Remus for help.

"She is, Jacob," Remus said.

"No, she's not!" Jacob exclaimed. "I get it, alright? It was a joke, a prank. You three said that you wanted to tell me something as a joke. But joke's over!"

Cassie sighed and turned so that she was facing him more. "Jacob, listen to me," she said. "I know that it's hard to take in, but I am a witch. I can do magic and things of that sort. Remus and Sirius can too. They're wizards. It's not a joke, Jake."

Jacob rolled his eyes, "Oh, really? Prove it, then."

Cassie looked over at Remus. He nodded slightly. Cassie sighed. She stood and turned to face Jacob. With a flick of her wrist, her wand flew out of its holster on her wrist and into her hand. She showed the wand to him.

Jacob looked up at her with a raised eyebrow. "It's a stick," he said flatly. "Although, I would like to know where it came from."

Cassie rolled her eyes, "It's not a stick, Jacob. Just watch." She took a small step back and murmured, "Expecto Patronum."

A silver doe erupted out of the end of the wand. It pranced around Cassie and butted its head against Jacob's leg before it did the same to Sirius and Remus.

Jacob's eyes were wide with disbelief and his hands started shaking.

"Jacob?" Cassie said tentatively, stowing her wand back in its holster. "Are you—?"

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?" Jacob finally bellowed before his whole body started shaking and, finally, he erupted into the large russet colored wolf that he was when he phased, completely destroying the couch and the table beside it in the process.

With a startled yell, Cassie leapt backwards to avoid the pieces of couch and wood that flew her way. Sirius and Remus leapt to their feet.

Jacob seemed to freeze as he saw the wreckage that he caused and the panicked/frightened look on Cassie's face. He whimpered.

"Oh, no, Jacob, it's okay," Cassie said, reading the emotions in his eyes perfectly, and reaching forward. But Jacob wouldn't have it. He whimpered once more and leapt through a window, smashing it as well.

"I told you we shouldn't have told him!" Remus said to Sirius, his voice rising with every word. "'Oh, come on, Remus! Give the kid a chance to prove that he's trustworthy!' If you'd just listened to me, this wouldn't have happened!" He motioned to the destroyed living room.

"Yeah, well—"

"Stop it!" Cassie shouted. She grabbed her phone, her jacket, and the keys to Jacob's truck, "I'm going to find him. I think I know where he might be."

"No," Remus said flatly. "You're not going anywhere near him. He's—"

"You know what, Remus?" Cassie said. "I don't really care. I'm his imprint. He's my boyfriend. He deserves to know. I'm not letting him leave here until he understands. If you don't like that, I'm sorry."

And she walked out the door.

Once outside, she unlocked Jacob's truck and rummaged around in the backseat. She exhaled in relief. Jacob had a couple extra pairs of jeans, just in case. She grabbed a pair, shut the door, locked the truck back, and then headed off into the woods.

After about a thirty minute hike, she came upon the small creek that she had found Embry when he had phased. She wasn't surprised to find Jacob—still in wolf form—pacing at the bank of the creek. She could almost see his mind racing.

Jacob jumped when a pair of jeans landed right beside him. He whirled around, surprised to find Cassie standing about fifteen feet away. He took a step back, a warning in his eyes.

"Don't worry," she said calmly. "I'm not coming near you."

Jacob stared at her for a moment, still confused as to how Cassie—his Cassie—could be a witch. He glanced from her to the jeans and back. He really needed to talk to her. Finally, he grabbed the jeans in his jaws and leapt behind the tree line. After taking a couple minutes to calm down some more, he was finally able to phase back into his human self. After pulling on the jeans, he stepped back out of the tree line. Cassie was still standing where she had been, her arms crossed across her chest. Jacob kept his distance, eyeing her warily.

Cassie sighed and sat down, leaning her back against a tree. "You know," she said softly, knowing that Jacob could hear her despite the distance between them, "You'd think that if I could handle the fact you turn into a dog, you could handle the fact that I can do magic."

Jacob studied her for a moment before exclaiming, "But it's not possible!"

"Neither is the fact that you turn into a giant, furry, four-legged mutt, yet here we are," Cassie said.

Jacob sighed in frustration and resumed his pacing, "And Sirius and Remus? They can do magic, too?"

"Yes."

"They saw me phase."

"Yes."

"And they're okay with what I am?"

"They already knew."

Jacob stared at her, "What do you mean they already knew?"

"I told Remus and he told Sirius."

"Well, why did you tell him?"

Cassie sighed, "I was asking him if I could tell you about what we are. I told him that I owed it two you because I knew your biggest secret. He said that if I told you what I was, certain people could find out where I am and he said that your biggest secret couldn't compete with ours. I had to tell him in order to be able to tell you."

Jacob was quiet for a moment before he said, "Why do you not want certain people to know where you are?"

"It's a long story."

"I've got time."

"I'm not telling you anything until I know that you're okay with what I am," Cassie said, crossing her arms again. "Not until I know that you're not going to run off again."

Jacob sighed and made his way forward. "I'm sorry," he murmured, sitting down beside her. "It's just I've never believed in magic. Hell, I've never believed that people can turn into wolves. When I saw you do magic, I just freaked out. I didn't know what to do. And my emotions got the better of me. I really am sorry."

Cassie sighed and rested her head against his shoulder, "It's alright. I understand."

Jacob tilted her face up towards him and kissed her gently. "That… whatever it was," he said. "It's was actually really beautiful."

"Thanks," Cassie said.

"Would you do it again?"

Cassie chuckled and pulled out her wand.

"Where do you keep pulling that thing from?" Jacob exclaimed.

Cassie laughed and pulled up her sleeve. The wand's holster appeared. "It's invisible when the wand is in it," she explained. "That's why you've never seen it before now."

Jacob nodded.

"Expecto Patronum," Cassie murmured and the silver doe erupted from her wand once more. It ran around the tree that Cassie and Jacob were leaning against and then it rubbed its head against Cassie's cheek before it disappeared. Cassie watched in amusement as Jacob stared at the spot where the doe had just been in amazement.

"Like I said," Jacob said, tilting her head up to kiss her again. "Amazing."

Cassie grinned into the kiss and then said, "We better be heading back before Remus and Sirius assume you did something to me."

"They really don't like me do they?" Jacob asked as he helped Cassie up.

"It's not they don't like you," Cassie said after a thoughtful pause. "It's just… look, they're just worried about me. They were already protective of me enough, but now that I'm dating a guy that turns into a dog…"

"I do not turn into a dog!" Jacob exclaimed. "I turn into a wolf!"

"Same thing," Cassie said, laughing at the look of incredulity on her boyfriend's face. "I'm just kidding!" she said when he opened his mouth again.

Jacob huffed and wrapped an arm around her waist as they started heading back to her house.

When they got there, they found Sirius and Remus picking up the mess Jacob had made by hand.

"Sirius? Remus?" Cassie said. "Why don't you just clean it up with magic?"

"Charlie showed up," Sirius grumbled. "Said he was going to get some people to help us clean it up. Can't exactly magic it clean now, can we?"

"I really am sorry about that, Sirius, Remus," Jacob said, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

"On the bright side," Cassie said cheerfully. "He accepted us!"

"That's great!" Remus hissed sarcastically as he lifted a particularly heavy peace of wood.

"What the—?" came a voice from behind them.

They all turned. Bella was standing in the door.

"Bella!" Cassie said. "What are you doing here?"

"I was… I was just coming over for our piano lesson," she said faintly, staring around at all the debris. "What happened here?"

"Nothing," Sirius said.

"Mmhmm," said Bella, raising an eyebrow.

"How about we go to your house for the piano lesson, Bella?" Cassie said quickly.

"Yeah," Bella agreed.

"Are you coming with us, Jake?" Cassie asked him.

"That'd probably be best," said Remus, glaring at the shapeshifter.

"Yeah, I'm coming," Jacob said quickly, grabbing Cassie's hand and pulling her out the door with Bella following behind.

And there it is! Again, I'm sorry for the long update, but you know my reasons.

I hope you all enjoyed!
