Authors Note: This story picks up from the middle of Eclipse. It's my first imprint story so let me know how you like it. Thank you all so much. Just fyi I'm not an Edward hater, even if he is a little bitch, but if you don't like then don't read.

Edward was driving me to La Push; the fact that he was even letting me go had surprised the hell out of me, the fact that I even asked surprised me more. I normally did everything I could to not upset him but for some reason I really wanted to go to this bonfire.

We had stopped driving and Edward turned to look at me. We were about 30 yards away from Jacobs's car. 'So close yet so far,' I thought to myself.

"Be sure to behave yourself, I don't want you getting in any trouble." His voice was firm; I was trying not to shake.

"Of course Edward, I'll do as you ask." I didn't look him in the eyes, I could never tell if he wanted me to or not.

"Good girl, now get out. I'll be back to get you later, don't keep me waiting." He grabbed my chin between his fingers, gripping a little bit too hard and pressed a hard kiss to my lips. After he released me I pulled that handle to his shiny Volvo and got out. I quickly walked across the treaty line reminding myself to slow down so it wouldn't look like I was running away. Running away, what an interesting thought. Once I made it across the line Jake ran up and scooped me into a giant bear hug, I couldn't help the relief that washed over me.

"It's good to see you too Jake." I smiled for the first time in a while. Feeling his warmth around me was such a change from Edwards's cold embrace. He put me down, making sure to steady me before removing his arms.

"You ready to go babe?" he asked putting a hand on my back.

"Sure," I turned back to see Edward there still in his car glaring at the back of Jacobs head, the look in his eyes could only be explained as rage, pure unadulterated rage. I turned back around not wanting to see him anymore.

The ride to First Beach was fast, talking to Jacob was something I had missed, even the silence was the most comfortable I had been in a long time. A few times Jake reached over and touched my arm, every time he did my shoulders immediately relaxed, each time I hadn't realized I was tensing up but apparently Jake had.

We pulled up to a gravel parking lot; I could see the smoke from the bonfire as we pulled in a spot. As I reached for the door handle I found the door had already been open and was being held open by Jake.

"Thank you," I said to Jake as I stepped out of the car.

"Don't sound so surprised Bella," he laughed at me. The truth was no one had held open a door for me in a long time.

We walked to the beech arm in arm, mostly because Jake was afraid I was going to fall. I really wasn't that clumsy, most of the time. I laughed to myself, I felt better around Jake like myself. Like my old self, the happy go lucky Bella that wasn't caught up in this horrible mess of a life. As we got to the bonfire I looked around, I recognized a few faces. Leah, Emily, Sam, Paul, then there was a wolf I didn't know and a lovely native girl sitting next to him. The way they were looking at each other I knew they had to be imprints, I had to smile at that, you could tell the love they shared was so pure nothing could taint it.

"Hey guys," Jake said as we approached. "This is Jared and Kim his imprint," he introduced, pointing to the wolf and beautiful native girl. I knew they were imprints. "Everyone this is Bella."

"Hi," I waved. They all smiled back and said their hellos then went back to whatever they were doing. Jake and I sat on a log by the fire. "Is this everyone?" I asked it didn't seem like very many people.

"No we still have Embry and Quil coming, plus all of the tribal members like my dad and Sue. They won't come till later though like right before we start telling the stories." Jake explained, he was always so sweet and never got upset explaining things to me. "Do you want any food?" Of course he was thinking about food.

"No thanks," I wouldn't have time to brush my teeth before I saw Edward and he always hated when I smelled like food.

"You're getting to skinny Bells, you should eat more." I thought he was going to bug me more or try and force me to eat but he left it at that and went to grab himself something to eat.

He came back with a mountain of food on this little styrofoam plate, I was sure it would brake under the weight of the food. I was just about to say something but there were two large boys coming from the woods. It took me a second but I finally realized it was Embry and Quil. They had both changed so much since the last time I saw them. They were talking and joking around, shoving each other. I imagined they were all so happy to be together again, Quil, Jake, and Embry. They were all such great friends then the change happened and they were separated, I was happy to see them all smiling again. I turned to Jake as he was waving them over he had a huge smile on his face. That made me smile; I could remember when he was so upset because Embry wouldn't talk to him and Quil when both Jake and Embry were ignoring him.

Suddenly I was being lifted off my feet and into a bone crushing hug. Once I was put back on my feet I looked up to find Embry.

"Hey Bella, good to see you," his smile was so genuine I knew he meant every word. He took a step to the side and let Quil step in front of me. As I looked up into his eyes I let out a gasp. How had I never seen this before? This amazing man, this beautiful, wonderful man before me, he was my everything. Then I realized what happened, Quil just imprinted on me. This was bad, this was horrible.

"Edward," it was just a whisper but apparently Quil heard it because he began to shake. I was about to place my hand on him but Paul was behind him, wrapping his arms around Quils chest and dragging him into the forest.

"Everyone in the forest, NOW!" Sam was screaming at the boys, and, like they had all been stabbed with a hot poker, jumped up and ran into the forest as well.

"Why don't we go back to my house for a few minutes?" Emily came up and placed her arm around my shoulder. I didn't really have a choice in the matted as Emily steered me off the beach and into a white one story house. Things were about to get very complicated, and very dangerous.
