Jessie has been in forks for a little over a week and has adjusted well to her new surroundings and routine. Charlie is getting the funeral arrangements done and has decided to do the funeral in a few days. Charlie hasn't introduced her to anyone yet due to the fact she needed to settle into his house first and get used to the new routine.
"Hey Jessie, would you like to come to go and meet my friends down the reservation?" Charlie asked gently."I would, yes, but what do I wear, though?" Jessie asked, worried about making a good impression.
"Wear whatever you're comfortable in," Charlie says with a smile."Okay, so T-shirt trousers boots, and a coat?" Jessie asked with a smile."Yeah, that will be fine. Go ahead and get ready." Charlie smiles.
Jessie runs upstairs and sees Bella and a strange boy in her room. She frowns and walks to her room gets changed and is ready for the day down the reservation.
"Uncle Charlie, who is that strange boy in Bella's room?" Jessie asked, pointing to Edward. Charlie came up the stairs to see Edward in his house.
"What the hell do you think you're doing in my house?! How the hell did you get in here?! Cause I certainly didn't let you in here! Get out of my house, and if I catch you in here, I'll arrest you. You understand me?!" Charlie shouts.
Edward nods, and Charlie drags Edward out of his house. Jessie stood waiting for Charlie. He smiled at her and put his hand out for her to take.
"Who are we going to visit?" Jessie asked. "Billy Black and his son Jacob Black or Jake as he likes to be called," Charlie says with a smile.
"Okay, will there be other people there or just them two." Jessie curiously wonders. "Not sure, but if there are more people, will that be okay?" Charlie asked. "I can try and deal with it," Jessie says slowly.
Charlie pulls up to Billy's House and sees Sam, Jared, and his girlfriend, Jake, Sam's girlfriend, and his girlfriend's sisters."Hello." Charlie greets everyone. Charlie helps Jessie out of the car."Billy meet Jessie. Jessie meet Billy." Charlie introduces her to Billy first. "Hello, Jessie." Billy smiles. "Hello, Billy," Jessie says.
Jake jogs over with Liv and Morgan behind him. "Hello, I'm Jake. This is Liv and Morgan." Jake says, introducing himself and the two girls.
"I'm Jessie." Jessie smiles slightly. Jared and Sam head over to greet Jessie and bring their two girlfriends along."I'm Sam, and this is Rhea, my girlfriend." Sam introduces himself and Rhea.
"Hi, Jessie." Rhea smiles."Hello," Jessie says. "I'm Jared, and this is Luna, my girlfriend," Jared says with a grin."You're funny." Jessie smiles."Hi, Jessie." Luna greets her. "I like your hair it's pretty." Jessie curiously says."Why, thank you." Luna smiles.
Jessie decides to join Liv and Morgan's games just as Paul joins Sam and Jared's side. "Paul, go and meet Jessie Swan she is Charlie's niece," Sam tells him.
Paul nods and heads over to Jessie and Liv sees him coming Liv taps Jessie and points behind her. Jessie turns around and looks up at Paul who froze in his tracks as he sees his future with Jessie and knows he will be whatever she wants him to be a friend, a brother, or a protector.
Sam and Jared quickly look at each other and realize Paul imprinted Jessie Swan."Hi, I'm Paul." Paul smiles himself. "Jessie. Are you okay there, mister?" Jessie asked, concerned.
"I'm okay, just happy to meet you." Paul smiles. Jessie nods and gives Paul a rare hug before returning to the game.
Paul jogs over to Sam, Jared, Luna, and Rhea. "I imprinted on a six-year-old! What the fuck?!" Paul whispers."We don't know why but you have you can't fight that bond as it will impact badly on you both more so than you," Sam says.
"How am I meant to see her?! Charlie won't just let us have her?" Paul argues "He might as Liv and Morgan are making friends with her. She could come over and spend time with the girls." Rhea says pointing at the three girls.
"That's a good idea, Rhea go talk to Charlie now whilst you have a chance." Luna nudges her. Rhea makes her way over to Charlie and taps his shoulder."Hiya Rhea, how are you?" Charlie asked.
"I'm good thanks are you?" Rhea asked."I'm good thank you, what can I do for ya?" Charlie asks.
"Since Jessie getting along with Liv and Morgan I was wondering if you wouldn't mind Jessie coming down over the week or the weekend if you like? And of course, if she wants to as well?" Rhea asks.
"Well, she has her mother's funeral this Saturday so she can't this weekend," Charlie says with a sad look.
"Oh god, she lost her mother?" Rhea asks sympathetically."Yeah to cancer. She has not registered it yet as she has Asperger's. Autism so she doesn't always recognize when she meant to be sad." Charlie explains.
"To lose a parent at that young what about her dad?" Rhea wonders."Died when she was a baby," Charlie says."My condolences, anything we can do to help with the funeral?" Rhea offers.
"Not really, but I could so with support with food?" Charlie asks knowing Rhea does amazing food.
"Of course, we'll be there to support you all of us," Rhea says. Charlie nods in thanks and sees Jessie exploring with Paul by her side.
"How are you liking the reservation?" Paul asks. "It's nice and quiet," Jessie says. "You can always come and visit anytime you like Jessie and see Liv and Morgan," Paul says sitting next to Jessie who looking at the flowers
"Well I can't this weekend, my mom's funeral is this weekend and I don't know what to feel it's new to me I've never lost someone before and I don't like it," Jessie says nervously fidgeting.
"I've lost my mother, I still got my dad but we don't get along for a good reason," Paul says looking at Jessie.
"Will you come to the funeral? I'd like you to be there as I feel like you are meant to be there with me." Jessie says scooting closer to Paul.
"Of course, as long as Charlie is okay with it." Paul nods. Jessie looks at Paul and she decides he is a nice person. She moves and sits on Paul's lap and leans into his chest.
"I don't like physical contact much but I like it when I have you to hold," Jessie mutters sleepily. Charlie smiles at the hothead of reservation being able to connect with his autistic niece.
"Lahote!" Charlie calls Paul over. Paul lifts Jessie and holds her close to his chest. He lightly jogs over to Charlie.
"Yes, Chief?" Paul says. "I was wondering if you would like to attend the funeral with everyone as Jessie seems to like you a lot," Charlie says looking at a tired Jessie.
"She doesn't like people much and has a hard time connecting with people due to her autism. I'd like it if you could come as it would bring her comfort and me as well." Charlie says with a light smile.
"It would be my honour, Chief." Paul smiles." I apologize for your loss, sir." Paul adds. "Thank you, Paul," Charlie nods. "I'll take her off you now as we need to head home," Charlie says reaching toward Jessie.
Paul hesitantly passes over Jessie not wanting to lose his bond with the six-year-old. Paul passes Jessie over and Charlie puts the sleeping six-year-old in the car.
Charlie waves everyone off and Paul watches the cruiser leave. He gives Sam a pleading look and he nods. Paul jogs into the woods and phases and runs alongside the police car while remaining hidden from view. He gets there just to see Charlie pick up Jessie who is half awake.
"Where's Paul?" Jessie asks tiredly."He's back with Sam, you'll see him Saturday when we say goodbye to your mommy," Charlie explains.
"I like Paul," Jessie says slowly. "That's good, do you like everyone else you've met today?" Charlie asked. "I like them, I don't like Edward he is scary," Jessie says.
"Me neither," Charlie says as they head in. Paul sits by Jessie's window. He hears Jessie sitting by the window and she looks down to see Paul's wolf by her window.
"Hello? Are you here to hurt me?" Jessie asks. Paul shakes his head at her question. "Can you jump up?" Jessie asked. Paul nods and Jessie moves back Paul wolf jumps and enters her room.
"Woah you got to be a supernatural wolf because you're huge!" Jessie says with a fascinated grin.
Paul nods."Do I know your human side?" Jessie asked with a tilted look. Paul nods once more."Can I see?" Jessie asked. Paul shakes his head."Okay, maybe one day. I won't tell." Jessie smiles.
She puts her hand out to stroke his fur and waits for any signs that she could stroke him and Paul puts his head underneath her hand and nudges it.
"You're so fluffy!" Jessie grins. "I like animals, more than people. But Paul is my favorite person now too." Jessie smiles slightly. "I don't like Edward, he's creepy and pale like a vampire," Jessie frowns.
Paul growls slightly at the mention of Edward."You don't like him either?" Jessie asked. Paul shakes his head in response. Jessie goes to her bed and taps the side of her bed. Paul walks over to the side and lies next to her.
"Thank you for staying. I like you." Jessie says tiredly. Paul huffs in response and stays by Jessie's side as she falls asleep and heads toward the window. He jumps out sending out a howl to Sam and Jared.
