Enchanted - Jacob Black

Enchanted - Chapter 12

I looked at Nate, he smiled and looked back down at his paper. We sat in class, Jake wasn't here today, he was with Bella. I closed my eyes taking a deep breath.

I felt my hand being grabbed, entwining fingers with mine. I opened my eyes, Nate was smiling at me, his blue eyes so sweet. I couldn't help but smile back at the face I've gotten to know so well. 

The bell rang,  everyone stood up, filing out of class. Nate let go of my hand as we stood up. It was the end of the day and I could finally go back home. "Hey what's wrong?" I looked in Nate's eyes, "nothing I'm just tired" I lied. I was worried about Bella and Jake. I know I shouldn't be, but I can't help it.

I felt Nate's lips suddenly touch mine, I felt my stomach flip. I kissed him back for a few seconds before pulling away. He smiled leaning his forehead against mine. "I have soccer practice" he mumbled. I nodded. "I'll walk home" it came out as almost a whisper. "See you later" He kissed my forehead. I nodded my head again. "Bye."

I walked to my locker, grabbing my books and walking out the front doors of the school. "Harper" someone called my name. I turned around. I instantly felt my mouth drop to the ground. Seth Clearwater stood in front of me, a small smile on his now manly face. He stood about 6 feet tall. The small Seth I used to know, was now a muscular monster. 

"Seth" I whispered at him. "Hey" he stepped closer. I stepped back in shock. "Did you phase?" I silently asked him. He nodded his head. "Yup" he slightly laughed.

"Wow" I mumbled under my breath. 

"Where you heading?" He asked. "Home" I answered. "I'll walk you" he said, I still felt the shock within me, Seth used to be at least the same height as me, and well scrawny. Now he was...A...

A pack member.

The shock finally faded away. "Sure" I mumbled. He stepped next to me, I could feel the heat radiating off of him. "How's life?" He asked. "It's been okay" I muttered. "Same here" he said in a perky voice. I couldn't help but laugh.

Seth was always a happy kid, never letting anything bring him down. Always trying to keep everyone happy. "So what's it like?" I asked. "Being a shape shifter and stuff" I finished. He grinned. "It's great" I smiled at him. 

I suddenly blurted out: "How's Jake?" Seth looked down at me, his smile lightly fading. "He's been fine, he's with Bella though. I think..." I nodded my head. "And Leah?" His smile was now gone. "The same, a wolf now too" "Ya I know that" I said, remembering the day she passed  me, leaving Sam's house. "I missed you" Seth mumbled. I smiled. "I missed you too kid" I said, nudging him with my elbow.

"I'm not a kid" I laughed. I could see my house a small distance away. "How's you're mom?" I asked him, "she's been okay I guess" he replied. I nodded. I watched as my house got closer and closer. "Wanna come to Sam's with me?" I looked up at him. "I don't know..." "Come on! Emily wants to see you again" he said. I sighed. I looked back at my small house. 

Dad wasn't home, probably at work. "I guess it wouldn't hurt" I replied. A grin crossed his 15 year old face. I slightly laughed. "Let me put my bag away" I quickly said, running up the front steps and opening the door, I dropped my bag in the hallway walked back out.  Closing the door behind me.

Seth stood by the porch waiting, I smiled and walked to his side. 

It didn't take us that long to get to Sam's, he practically lived down the street from me, just needed to take a turn and five minutes later we were there. The small house stood abandoned from the outside, but you could tell people were inside. I suddenly started having a feeling of regret, like I shouldn't be here. 

I turned back to Seth. 

"Can we go on a walk first?" The words slipped off my lips. Seth slightly raised his eyebrow but quickly smiled. "Okay" he said, with a slight perky voice. I couldn't help but smile.

We took off down to the beach. .

"Are you dating that guy?" Seth asked, scratching the back of his head. "Which guy? Because there is lots of them in the world" I replied, he lightly laughed. "Nate" he said, I nodded my head. "Why?" I raised my eyebrow at his question.

Why.

"Because I like him" I said, starring up at Seth in confusion. "But i thought you liked guys who were more...Not like Nate" I stopped walking. "Seth? Where are you going with this?" I said, with a mix of anger. 

He stuffed his hands in his short pockets. 

"Nothing, I was just, I wanted..." I raised my eyebrow. 

"Nothing, never mind" he mumbled and looked away. I suddenly felt regret for talking to him that way. I didn't want to make him sad. 

I turned around. In front of us, a few meters away stood Bella and Jake. 

I looked closer.

I felt like someone punched me as I watched what happened next. I turned away, my heart shattering into a million pieces. 

Tears forming in my eyes. 

How could he do that?
