Holding onto Tomorrow(Jacob Black) 2.

.ABBY’S PROFILE.

Jacob handed me over to Sam and Emily. Emily went to go and get the bandages for my body. Sam was holding me in his arms. I was shaking slightly. Sam looked down at me and smiled gently.

“Are you okay, Miss?” I nodded. “You don’t have to call me ‘Miss’. My name is Abby.” I said to him. He was still smiling. Sam placed me on the couch that he and Emily had been sitting on before Jacob took me here. When he laid me down on the couch I almost felt like crying. The seats were cutting into my wounds on my legs and back. However, I laid there and took the pain. I knew I would be better in a matter of time.

Emily came down the stairs with a case of medical supplies. She took out the bandages and the wraps for me. She also took out pain killers and lotion for the gashes. Sam left the room and went to God knows where. Emily told me to take off my jacket and my shirt so she could wrap me up easily. When I did, she looked at me in pure horror.

“I think we should take you to the hospital! I mean look at these cuts and bruising. You have an infection on your arms as well! I’ll get you new clothing and Sam and I will take you, is that okay?” I blinked. “why do I need new clothing?” I asked her. She smiled warmly. “So the doctors can see this all better. She ran up the stairs and brought down a pair of clothing. It was black jean shorts and a lime green spaghetti strap shirt. There were no shoes, due to having them just carry me. Sam came back in after I changed. both of them horrified at my condition and also how skinny I was. I was unhealthy. I really needed food and help.

As we arrived at the hospital, people were staring at me. Sam grunted when he picked me up. I must weigh almost nothing to them. When we entered the ER, a nurse came running along with a doctor. They set me in a wheelchair, which I almost cried in. They rode me off to a room, with Emily and Sam following of course, and then they put me into a hospital gown. The doctor that was checking me had a blonde hair and was cold to the touch. He was very pale and had topaz colored eyes. He looked at me and smiled gently. I blushed and looked at Emily and Sam. They for some reason looked worried about me. I don’t understand why they would. I was going to be fine, beyond all costs.

After about three hours of testing, they treated the infection and it was healing and feeling better already. I was put into a lot of gauze with medication. I was to stay in the hospital for a day or two so that they could keep and eye on my progress. I found out that my doctor’s name was Dr. Carlisle Cullen. Emily had stayed with me while Same left to go get the boys from school. Emily and I hit off right away. She and I were very much alike. We talked about different things till Sam entered the room with Jacob, Quil, Embry and then four other people I did not recognize.

“Hey Abby, how are you feeling?” Sam asked me. I smiled. “I’ve had better days. Dr. Cullen told me that I would be out of here in a few days or so.” Everyone sighed relieved and smiled at me. I looked at everyone. Why did they care so much for little ugly me?

.JACOB’S POV.

When school ended, I saw Sam rushing into the parking lot with Jared and Paul. Seth and Leah just got out of the school too and they also saw the car. The guys and I ran to the car for information on the girl from earlier.

“How is she doing Sam?” I asked. There was terror on the edge of my voice. Sam smiled. “She’s fine. We took her to the hospital. Emily is with her. We are going back to the hospital. You mind coming?” I shook my head and opened the Rabbit’s doors. Leah went with us while Seth went with Sam. We all drove to the hospital.

“So why are we coming to the hospital? Did something happen to Kim, Emily, or Claire?” Leah asked. Quil shook his head. “No, Jacob saved this girl that was being abused this morning. We took her to Sam’s and they dealt with her better then we could most likely.” I answered her. She looked hesitant. “Does she know the secret about us?” “No. We just helped her and we are going to probably see her a lot more now. I would imagine her and Emily are getting along great.”

We got to the hospital around four o’clock. We got to her room and she looked like she was actually happy for the company we were about to give her. I entered her room first with Sam, Quil, and Embry all right behind me. She looked confused about the others though. At least, the people that she did not know from school or Emily and Sam’s house earlier.

“Hey Abby, how are you feeling?” Sam asked her simply. She smiled. “I’ve had better days. Dr. Cullen told me that I would be out of here in a few days or so.” I sighed relieved. She was going to be alright! That is really good.

“So, who are these four people?” I looked at her. She was looking at Paul, Jared, Seth, and Leah. I laughed then. “From the left: Jared, Leah, Seth, and Paul. They are like family to us and they wanted to see you, since now you are going to be the family!” She looked so happy. She was smiling like a three year old girl who got the doll she has wanted since June and it’s Christmas. I grinned.

“Hey everyone, I’m Abigail Harrison. I’m in the same grade as Jacob, Embry, and Quil.” They all nodded. So her name is Abigail. That’s different for being around here.

Emily had brought playing cards for all of us to play. Abs, the new nick name I gave her, Quil, Embry, Sam, Paul, and I were all playing poker for fun. Luckily, Emily was a life savior and gave me some more money so I didn’t have to sit out. Abs was winning almost every game we played.

“CHEATER!” Paul yelled as she took his three twenties. She laughed. “Yeah right, you sore looser! I’m just freaking lucky at this shit!” We laughed. Paul was pissed off because he just lost three hundred bucks to Abs. “Hey Abs, how much money you have now?” “A little over five hundred. Is it just me, or do I smell victory in the air?” She smirked. Everyone glared at their cards. Carlisle came in the room and saw all the money she had on her. “Um, may I ask why is Abby covered in cash?” He asked. Emily laughed. “The guys and her are playing poker. She’s won every game and they don’t want to give in and say that they are defeated.” Carlisle laughed and looked at my body.

.ABBY’S PROFILE.

He looked in amazement because my gashes were already healed and it has been only a few hours. I was ready to leave. I was fine! Only thing is that I have a huge gash on my cheek that goes from the eye brow bone down to the middle of my cheek. It was merely a scar now though. I was free to go.

“Abby, you actually can go today. Your healed!” Everyone looked at me. I smiled at them the best I possibly could. “I heal fast, don’t worry!” They exchanged glances to one another and signed me out. I changed into the black jeans that covered my feet and a green hooded jacket that went right over my hands and longer. They both were Emily’s clothing that she gave me. I put on the black flip flops I had on when I went to school. I walked out smiling with my friends. My very first friends.

.JACOB’S POV.

The entire pack were amazed that Abs had healed so quickly. Could she be a werewolf like us? We all walked out into the rain of Forks toward our cars. I got into the Rabbit with Quil, Embry, Leah and Abs. Abs sat on Quil’s lap in the back. There really wasn’t anymore room other then that. I got to tell you though. I was jealous that she sat on his lap instead of my own. But I was driving. So I couldn’t have her on my lap to even begin with. Or could I? No. I’d get pulled over by the cops with my luck. Sam and I took the cars back to the house. As we all got out, Abs almost fell out of the car. I laughed, as did everyone else. She scowled and held out the five hundred bucks we had to give and then she held out her hand for the hundred that we owed her still. Everyone stopped and got into the house.

“So Abs, you know where you going to be staying?” Quil asked her. He was like her bog brother, as was Embry. Leah and her communicated, amazingly, and now they are pretty good friends. Paul and Abs are usually fighting, but it’s not like I’m going to beat the fuck out of your nut sack type of fighting. “I guess I’ll have to go back to the house my aunt and Savannah owns.” I stopped in my tracks, as did Embry and Quil. I looked at her then and I must have looked furious because she winced under my gaze. “You are not going to that house. The guys and I will get your stuff and bring it to my house, I don’t care, all I know is that your never going back tot hat house with out one of us with you!” I was shaking. She smiled oddly. “I don’t want to be a bother to any of you more then I already have been, Jake.”

Sam and Emily looked at one another and walked over to Abs. Emily was smiling so wide it was toxic for everyone around her. “Abby, Emily and I were wondering-” ,Sam was cut off by Emily, “If you want to be our adoptive daughter.” The pack looked amazed. Everyone knew that Emily and Sam had been wanting to adopt for a while, due to Emily not being able to have any children. Abs’s face lit up in the most adorable way that was not natural to the human kind.

She ran and jumped into both of their arms at the same time. She was crying and smiling. She nodded and they all spun and hugged each other. She was going to be our family now. She is going to be our family, forever.
