"Red? Little Red?" Wysteria hears the nickname and a memory jolts through her of a boy with a toothy grin and shaggy hair. She turns slowly. Behind her is a lanky guy with hair almost as long as hers, if not longer. His head is tilted slightly in di...

"Show me again." Jacob said with a smile. Wysteria closed her eyes and pictured the slivers of lightning wrapping around her hands, wrists and over her arms. She felt Jacob slowly run one hand up the length of her arm. The electricity crackled between them as he did but apparently, it didn't hurt him.

"If he didn't let you come with me I would've ripped his head off." Wysteria rolled her eyes.
"Jasper is nice. Don't be mean." Wysteria said. Jacob rolled his eyes.
"How nice could he be? He's a vampire." Wysteria shook her head at him and wandered further into her house, Jacob trailing after.
"You gotta get over that whole vampire thing. It's not a big deal."
