chapter 3:

The weeks had passed and Hermione had developed a friendly relationship with the Cullen's, she had basically become part of the family. Emmett and Edward treated her as they would treat a little sister and Jasper felt the need to defend and protect her more than the rest due to his history with battles. He had experienced them first hand so knew what Hermione had been through.

They had all read her book and asked questions. They realised that she was probably the most famous witch in the world at the moment. She was round at their house more often than knew about her nightmares so whenever she woke she was more than welcome to apparate to theirs where she would fall asleep and one of them would bring her back before Bella and Charlie woke up. Bella was still none the wiser on Hermione being a witch. All she knew was that she was spending more and more time there and in all honesty Bella was jealous,of all the time Hermione was spending with the Cullen's, but more importantly of all the time that she was spending with Edward. So when the chance came to make Edward jealous she jumped at it. This came from a phone call from Jacob Black.

hello?

hey Bella? its Jake.

Jacob! finally decided to speak to me again then?

listen Bella, im sorry. Do you want to come to the rez to chill? the packs at mine were having a barbeque

yeah Jake that sounds good. will I come now or are you picking me up?

I'll pick you up. Be ready in 10.

bye for now

bye

"HERMIONE"

"No need to shout Bella im just here. What is it?"

"I'm going to the rez tonight to see Jake and the other guys. Will you be okay by yourself?"

"I'm a big girl Bella besides I will just go see the Cullen's" she replied smiling.

"yeah your new besties" Bella muttered.

"What?" asked Hermione knowing full well what Bella had said.

"I said make sure you tell Edward where I am, so he doesn't come looking for me"

"Yeah will do, well im away now cyaa"

"bye"

Bella got ready quickly for Jacob and waited bye the door. She knew by now that her future would have disappeared from Alice and she knew that Edward would know exactly where it is that she would have gone. She didn't want to make him too jealous just enough for her to remind him that she was still here.

The doorbell went it was Jacob.

"hey are you ready to go?" he scooped her into a bear hug.

"yeah just let me grab my bag"

They made there way to La Push Bella talking all the way about her British cousin.

"Seriously she spends most of her time there now. you would think that shes one of them"

As soon as she said that she wished she could take it back . Jacob growled and Bella realised what she said sounded like.

"No no Jake calm down she isn't one of them the treaty is still intact. Hermione's still a regular human."

oh the lies in that sentence that Bella didn't even know about.

"I just mean that she spends alot of time with them that's all."

"Right okay, because if she was one of them we would finally get to kill them"

"Jake! Thats my boyfriend and his family your talking about."

"Yeah forgot" he grumbled.

The rest of the day and evening passed smoothly for Bella, it was like she had never been away. They welcomed her back with open arms. Literally. She couldn't remember the amount of bear hugs she had had that day. The day was dwindling and Bella was getting more and more tired. She tired to stay awake but soon her eyelids shut against her will and sleep consumed her.

Meanwhile at the Cullen's:

"Edward would you just please relax" shouted Hermione for probably the 100th time that day.

"You don't know that dog like I do, you don't have to hear his thoughts."

"Oh i could if i wanted to, but i don't so"

"Whatever witch"

"right back at you vampire"

ring ring ring

hello? Hermione?

yeah charlie?

is Bella with you? because she promised to stay with you

oh yeah charlie, shes right here, poor girl has fallen asleep though we will be home soon

okay just checking cyaa

bye.

"shit. Why do i have to be such a nice person?"

"no idea. just phone Bella and tell her that you are coming to pick her up from the mutts"

"good plan. question though. Why do you keep calling them dogs and mutts?"

"because that's what they are. or a better term would be shape-shifter."

"Ah like an animagus"

"a what?" inquired Emmett who had been listening in on the conversation.

"an animagus, a person who can transform into an animal at will."

"yeah like that, except they call it phasing and all their clothes rip when they do it so they just walk around in jean shorts."

"Well that's got to be annoying. hmm i think i know a spell that can fix that. Anyway I need to go phone Bella."

Hermione scrolled through her contacts and found Bella's name then listened to the ringing. A boy whose voice she didn't recognize answered.

hello?hello?

em... is Bella there?

no shes fallen asleep, can I take a message or something.

yes, you can wake her up and tell her that he cousin is coming to pick her up as she just covered for her by lying to Charlie.

right well do you know how to get to the rez.

yes, ill be there in 20mins thanks.

Hermione hung up before the stranger could reply.

"I'm guessing you heard?"

Edward nodded

"and do any of you know how to get there because I don't?"

"yes I do, but we cannot go on there land"

"Just picture the road and way to get there."

Edward did so and Hermione came up to him tapped her wand on the side of his face and drew out the silver memory before placing it in her own mind.

"Thanks... could I borrow a car? Because Charlies at home so would know if I just went and picked up Bella truck."

"Sure take my Volvo, just bring it back."

" I will, bye guys"

Hermione left and made her way to the Cullen's large garage, got in the Volvo and sped off. She arrived to see a big group of boys who were as Emmett had told her, just in jean shorts. They looked up as the car came to a halt, in a defense pose they obviously thought that it was Edward in the car, so it was funny for Hermione to watch their faces drop and eyes widen as she came out of the car and approached them.

The guys heads snapped up at the approaching vehicle, it was Cullen's car, they were all immediately wary and in defense. That was until a girl got out. She was gorgeous, in that natural way. Her legs seemed to go on forever as she got out and her caramel curls cascaded down her back. When she was close enough she spoke with a cute British accent.

"Hey... im looking for Bella?"

Jacob jumped up first.

"hey we spoke on the phone, she's inside with my dad and Sam come on "

Hermione followed Jacob into a decent sized house and there like he said was Bella lying on the sofa sound asleep. She looked around the room there was a man in a wheelchair smiling kindly at her, which she returned. There was another boy who looked older maybe 20 with his back to her. He turned around to introduce himself and that's when it all went wrong

His eyes widened and stared at her as though looking into her very soul. A faint blush creeped onto his cheeks as he drank in her image. He couldn't take his eyes off her and stuttered over introducing himself.

"h-h-hey, im S-Sam Ul-Uley"

"Hermione Granger."

She held out her hand to shake his and he didn't seem to let go afterwards she had to yank her hand away. He was still staring at her. It was creepy.

Her brain started to whirl again. She didn't know too much about shape-shifters but from what she did know, this man was showing all the signs of imprinting. SHIT! he had imprinted on her.

"bugger... nice meeting you and all but I REALLY have to be heading back now,"

She turned to Jacob behind her and asked if he would lift Bella into the car. She said goodbye and got out of there.

thank god for Edward and his fast car she thought as she sped back to Charlies, Dropped Bella off and said she needed to take the car back.

She drove off back to the Cullen's and all but ran into the living room.

"Edward" she said loudly even though he would be able to hear if she whispered.

He was in the living room not a second later.

"What is it? Whats wrong"

"Please tell me that im wrong but I think that one of those shape shifters imprinted on me."

She took down her mental block and replayed the scene with Sam before putting the block up again.

If Edward could of paled more he would have

"Yes, he has" his voice came out a little more than a whisper but to Hermione he could of shouted it.

"This cannot be FUCKING happening"

{finally the wolves have arrived, and Sams imprinted. Whats going to happen next ? only one way to find out REVIEW ciao}
