Hello lovies. Welcome to chapter one of my brandy new fanfic.

So, I'm a Jacob Black fangirl. I would side with him over Edward any day of the week, but I can clearly see that Bella does not love him in the same way that she loves Edward. This makes me sad, because I love Jacob. And he deserves love. So, I made him this girl. I was afraid of a Sue, so I tested her and it proved to be a mere seven out of hundreds. Fabulous, No?

Anyways. Here it is. I hope you enjoy it and I beg you to review.

Jacob was in a foul mood. The same mood he'd been in for a very long time. That mood where he was angry and temperamental, but not pissed off enough to explode into a werewolf. His hands would occasionally twitch with frustration when he let her cross his mind. To make his anger even worse school was being completely unfair to him. Him and the other werewolves were the teachers pets, but they still had to sit in school for hours after restless nights with no sleep. The teachers also required that they put forth some effort, which Jacob simply didn't want to deal with. Usually he was a hard worker but lately he had seemed to have lost his motivation for school, and life in general. If only Bella were here. She always made him feel better.

He swallowed a lump in his throat at the thought of her. Bella. They had been so close, the best of friends, and now she wouldn't even come to see him. Bella did say that she had been grounded, and that it wasn't Edward's fault but Jacob didn't believe that. Billy kept giving him notes from Charlie that were signed with Bella's loopy cursive. Charlie wouldn't mind if she came to visit him, in fact, he was certain that he liked Bella hanging out with him more than having her hanging out with Edward. Bella just couldn't see what was right in front of her, and it was upsetting. Edward had so much control over her, and she just let him have it because she was convinced that she loved him.

Jacob had been mulling over this for too many hours to count. Today was a particularly bad day. He just couldn't get her out of his head. It got to the point where he couldn't handle school anymore. He left in the middle of fourth period and took off into the woods. The exhilaration of running was enough to distract him for a little while. It wasn't until his brothers were trying to calm down that he really had enough. He knew that they were just trying to help, but they were doing the opposite instead. And what was worse, they didn't seem to get the picture that the talking they were doing wasn't helping any.

He hated all of this. He wanted to see Bella again. He wanted the voices out of his head. He wanted to be normal. But he couldn't because of the curse that ruled his existance. Unable to take it anymore, Jacob exploded back into a boy with a scream on the side of the road. His naked torso heaved and he panted as he stared at the pavement. His clothes had been flung across the ground with teeth marks from where he had been carying them. He hopped over quickly and pulled on his jeans and boxers.

That was a really stupid thing to do. Jacob thought as he buttoned up his jeans. Oddly enough, it did make him feel better.

The road he'd run out on was desolate and barren. He checked around to make sure though. He'd been to overwhelmed by all of his thoughts to concentrate on anything. He peered down the street and found his heart beat get faster at the sight of a telephone booth.

That's when he saw the body. It was a girl, looking like she shouldn't be out of high school yet. Her petite frame was huddled at the bottom of a phone booth, with both of her hands pressed up against the glass. Her jaw was dropped and her eyes were wide as she stared at him without shame. She seemed ecstatic in some way. Though her mouth was dropped, it seemed more of a pleasant surprise than anything else. Like the shock you'd feel after walking in on your surprise birthday party.

It was enough to make Jake's stomach drop with fear. What had she seen? Had he just exposed them all? How long had she been there? Why hadn't he smelt her? His day had just gone from bad to worse.

The girl's day was much different than his. Hers seemed to brighten with a whole new venue. Her day had been on the same track as Jacob's had been. She was miles from her home, had no place to stay but in her car, and was running low on cash and sleep. That wolf coming out of the woods and exploding into a man was such a pleasant shock. When she had gotten to La Push, the last thing she had expected was a werewolf.

She tucked a lock of blonde hair behind her ear and stood up and swung the booth's door open and sprinted to Jacob.

Jacob was still dumbstruck. His shock had rendered him motionless. Had he really just exposed his pack? If so, Sam was going to kill him.

"Oh my god!" She said with bright hysteria. "What were you – How'd you – Can I – WOW!"

"Yeah. I'm thinking that too." Jacob put his hands to his temples and tried to massage away the migraine he was getting. This couldn't be happening. It just couldn't. The blonde wasn't helping any either. She was squealing and hopping around in excitement and spitting out words that made no sense at all in context. Maybe he could just slip out while she was freaking out and she wouldn't notice.

Not likely.

Jacob took a suspicious step backwards and that caught her attention. She stopped babbling and her face fell. A sad look came onto her face and her shoulders sagged. "Please don't go."

Jake let his tense shoulders sag too. He was a sucker for please. You could get him to do just about anything with a little please.

The petite blonde blinked her blue eyes at him. "Are you going?"

"You asked me not to…" Jacob said in a defeated tone, not looking her in the eyes.

The blonde bit her lip and looked down the road, then back at Jacob. When he lifted his head, Jake could see the gears working behind her eyes. He was a little bit afraid of what was coming next.

"I need a place to stay." She said finally, wincing away from his reaction a little. It was like she expected him to explode.

Jake raised an eyebrow at her. That wasn't exactly what he had expected. Then again, he wasn't really sure what he was expecting. Maybe for her to pull out a tranquilizer and take him to the zoo. "Are you blackmailing me?" She could, of course, do that sort of thing with the information she'd found and he'd have to comply because there was really nothing else he could do about it.

The blonde's eyebrows shot up and she put up her hands while shaking her head 'no'. "Oh god no." She put her head in her hands for a second and then looked back up at Jacob. "I'm sorry. That came out wrong."

Jacob just nodded, acknowledging her but not really giving anything away. He still wasn't really sure how to react to her… and the thought that she might knock him out was running quickly through his irrational head.

When Jacob didn't say anything, the girl crossed the distance she had danced away and held out her hand. "I think we started out the wrong way. Usually people give out their names and date for a while before they ask to move in with them." She laughed. Shaking her blonde head of hair at her silliness. When she looked up at him, she smiled. "I'm Grace. Grace Kelley."

Jacob smiled back at her, thankful for the normality of an introduction in the abnormality that spawned their meeting. He took her tiny hand in his and shook. "Jacob Black."

"Well. It's a pleasure to meet you Jacob Black." Grace said, a smile still on her face. "Would you like to discuss our situation at a less open location?"

Jake nodded thankfully. "The alpha will want to see you… and me." He seemed to realize just how bad it was when he said it out loud. Sure, he had been aware of it before but now it was really hitting home. "God, Sam's gonna kill me." He muttered.

"I'll distract him." Grace piped in. Even though she had no clue about who this Sam was, she was fairly certain that he would be killing Jacob because of her. Looping her arm through Jacob's. The contact startled him for a moment, but Grace seemed to notice and she looked up at him. "Do you mind?"

Jacob shook his head. He didn't really mind. it was just different and odd. "Where are we walking to?" He was planning on running into the woods and calling a meeting right there, but he didn't really want to. So, he waited for Grace's plan, praying it was something better than his.

"Well, I was hoping that you knew something about fixing cars." Grace said hopefully. "Mine broke down a little ways down the road and I can't figure out what's wrong with it for the life of me."

Hooray! Something familiar!

Jacob smiled. "I know a lot about cars." He boasted. Plus, driving to Sam's house was probably a better idea anyways. Out in the open, there was no house or Emily to calm Sam down.

Grace was doing a pretty good job of clearing away his anxiety. He knew he was still screwed, but it was nice to have a smiling face and a voice of reason. His heart fell in his chest when he was reminded of Bella. Grace was so much like her. Well, not too much. He was just embellishing on everything because he missed her so much. The pair seemed to have the same style, same size, and same attraction for danger and the supernatural. Other than that he wasn't really sure. They did only just met a minute ago, and there could be a whole other side of her that wasn't remotely like Bella.

Jake hoped not.
