Hey Monday • Paul Lahote

Ch.3 Wolves

I woke up that morning around 9 am. I stretched out before getting up and walking to my dresser. I pulled out a hair brush and brushed my black hair followed by brushing my teeth. I head downstairs to see my father in the kitchen eating breakfast.
"Morning Dad," I speak out and open the fridge door, taking out the milk before going to the cabinets and pulling out a box of fruit loops.
"Morning, dear. I'm about to head off to work." He says and I nod as I make my bowl of cereal.

I walk to the kitchen table with it in hand and sit down.
"Hey, thank you again. It means a lot." My father tells me. I take a bite of my cereal and smile.
"It's really no issue Dad," I tell him after swallowing.
"Keep an eye on Bella, okay. I don't want her to leave the house. Or if she does make sure you go with her." My father says. I nod as he leaves the house. I finish my bowl of cereal before heading upstairs and into my room. I wasn't sure what I was going to do today. I planned on going around Forks and maybe to Port Angeles to see if anything has changed or just see what's new.

I flat ironed my hair to make it straighter before putting on my usual makeup. I went to my closet And threw on a black and white striped long-sleeve shirt before throwing a black graphic T-shirt over it. I slipped on a pair of black skinny jeans followed by my usual black cargo boots.

I looked at myself in the mirror before throwing up a stupid peace sign with my left hand and walking out of my room. "Hey, Bella! Do you want to take me around Forks or Port Angeles today?" I shout out. I waited for her answer but got nothing. I peek into her bedroom before I hear the front door slam shut. No no no no.
"Bella!" I scream and run down the stairs and out the front door.

I see her hop into her old orange pickup truck. "Bella, what are you doing?" I yell out at her.
"I'm going to the res to see Jacob!" She yells back.
"What? Why? I thought you two were no longer friends! Dad said to stay home!" I shout.
"I need to see him! Stay here!" She says before quickly reversing out of the driveway and speeding off down the road. I look around anxiously not knowing what to do.

I didn't want to go to the reservation. I told myself I would never go to La Push when here. I look around anxiously before spotting a motorbike in the front yard. I quickly jump onto the bike and kick kick-start it and speed off down the road toward the reservation. Thank you Luke for teaching me how to ride a motorcycle.

I quickly spot Bella's truck in front of Billy Black's house. I hop off the bike and throw it to the ground running up to the front door and knocking roughly on it. I rock back and forth anxiously waiting for someone to answer. The door swings open revealing a stressed-looking Billy.
"Billy, where's Bella?" I ask him.
"N-Nessa?" He stutters. I look at him waiting for an answer before hearing yelling from outside.

I push past him quickly and run toward the back of the house and out onto the back porch. My eyes widen and I feel my breath leave my body. I quickly squat down while looking at the scene unfolding in front of me. There Bella was walking up to the shirtless and buff Sam, Paul, Jared, and Embry while yelling.

"What did you do? What did you do?" Bella yells at Sam. My heart was beating insanely fast at the moment. Fear and anger were in my head and body while sadness rested quietly in my heart. What the fuck Bella. I couldn't help, but keep my eyes on Paul. He has changed so much from the last time I saw him. He was taller and more buffer. He was shaped like God. All I wanted to do was run up there and hug him. I felt a pull toward him. However, I couldn't forgive him for what he did and I extremely disliked Sam. My eyes landed on Embry who also changed. He also looked so different. They all had that same damn tattoo.

"What did you do to him?" Bella yells and shoves Sam.
"Easy!" Sam yells out.
"He didn't want this!" Bella shouts.
"What did we do? What did he do? What'd he tell you?" Paul asks her. His voice was deep with anger and a dark smirk plastered on his face.
"Both of you calm down," Sam says to Bella and Paul. Paul was obviously agitated.
