After 2 weeks without communicating with Jacob, Bella finally got up the courage to drive down to La Push and see what this was all about. When she arrived, the house seemed dark. She decided to wait until Billy or Jacob would come outside. Hardly any time had passed before she was startled by Jacob. "What are you doing here, Bella?" he asked. "Can we walk?" Bella replied.
Within moments, Bella and Jacob were walking together throught the woods. Bella asked Jacob why he hadn't been calling her, and all he said was that he had been busy hanging out with his new friends, one of them was the kid, Sam, who Jacob had gone on before that was crazy and terribley mean. Bella wondered why he would be hanging around with him and his friends then. This made Jacob furious. He told Bella that he was not safe for her and that he didn't want to be friends with her anymore. With that, Jacob took off and left Bella alone in the woods.
That night, Bella awoke to Jacob climbing into her window. She was not happy about this. He apoligized about earlier that day and tried to calm her down so that he could explain. He reminded her of the talk that they had had up at the lake about a year ago...the talk in which Bella figued out that her precious, Edward was a vampire. But vampires was not ALL they talked about. Jacob had mentioned something about werewolves too. Jacob then told her to think of the reason why he wasn't safe for her to be hanging around with anymore. He told her that he didn't think it would take her very long, and that when she did figure it out, that it was ok to call him instead of coming over. Jacob then left Bella, leaving her still sitting upon her bed.
Jacob was right, it didn't take Bella very long to figure out the reason. "WEREWOLF." Bella muttered. She couldn't belive what she had just said. Her best friend--a WEREWOLF? How can this be? Bella had to find this out.
The following morning, Bella was out the door before Charlie had even left. She drove to La Push faster than usual. She meet up with Billy when she arrived and then went into Jacobs room to talk with him. Instead of speaking in his room, they went back into Bella's car and decided to drive to the place where they had riden there motorcycles.
On the way up, Jacob told Bella everything. He told her that when she had seen Laurent in the woods that day, the reason that Laurent ran away from her was because he had seen Jacob and his pack coming after him. He also told Bella that they had successfully killed Laurent.
"But what about Victoria?" Bella asked. Victoria was James mate. Laurent had told Bella that Victoria only thought it was fair if Bella were to die. Edward killed her sweetheart, James, and in return, Victoria was going to kill Bella. Mate for Mate. She had thought it would be easier for Laurent to kill Bella than herself, though.
This scared Bella. Since Laurent is dead now, Victoria would be coming to get her. Jacob told her not to worry and that he and his pack would take care of it. Bella told Jacob to be careful though, for Charlie was to be out in the woods that day investigating a supposed Bear sighting. Jacob reassured Bella that he would, as they pulled into the infamous motorcylce spot. There, they were to meet up with Sam and the rest of the pack.
