THE NEXT DAY, MONDAY

06h00

Bethany is the first to wake up amongst her siblings. She gets out of bed and walks out her door. Embry approaches her, "How you doing?" He asks.

"Better" she smiles. "That's great" Embry smiles hugging her as Bethany hugs back. "There'll be a bonfire tonight at Billy's and Harry's funeral is tomorrow" he informs her. "Okay' Bethany nods.

"I'm getting to the bathrooms first!" Paul shouts running out of his room and to the bathrooms with Jared following. They both get the two upstairs bathrooms.

"Shit!" Bethany shouts as Seth and Leah too run out of her room. She quickly runs down the stairs with Embry behind her.

Seth catches up with them and slides to make his way into the first bathroom while Leah and Embry fight over the other.

As Seth slides, Bethany quickly runs up to him and does a cartwheel on his shoulders making it into the bathroom and locking the door.

Seth and Embry groan as the girls made it into the bathroom, "Dammit!" Embry shouts.

Sam and Jacob were downstairs busy talking about something. "You guys are childish" Sam shakes his head. "They're girls! I know my sisters, they'll take forever!" Seth complains.

"I don't hear any water running yet" Embry points out. "That's because you're too busy complaining!" Leah shouts from inside the bathroom. The boys both hear a door open upstairs and see Jared and Paul coming out from the bathroom.

"Yes!" Embry and Seth both cheer running upstairs and into the bathroom. "What's up with them?" Jared asks. "The girls got to the bathrooms first" Jacob replies.

"Why do you both look like you were both in a meeting? Serious faces and arms crossed" Paul says looking at Jacob. "He always crosses his arms, Mr angry guy" Jared mocks.

"He wants to go and fetch Bella" Sam whispers. "Why are you whispering about bringing Bella?" Jared asks. What?! She's coming here?!. They hear Bethany think to herself.

"Give it a rest Beth! She's better than you think" Sam scolds. Bethany huffs before continuing her shower.

"Hopefully Bella's eyes don't get clawed out" Jared chuckles. "Yeah, did you see the way she ripped off Victoria's head? Imagine now that she knows it's Bella's fault" Paul adds.

"Enough, none of this Bella's fault" Jacob says. But it is. "But she didn't intend for any of this to happen" Jacob replies. They hear the water stop before Bethany walks out of the bathroom still soking wet with a towel around her body.

"She may have not but it's still her fault. Her actions have put us all in danger because if they go to war, I'm sure the pack would be involved" Bethany announces. "If it does, you don't have to come" Sam says.

"I'm not going to stay back while the pack fights, this pack is my family, not Bella. I'll be doing it for you, not her" Bethany concludes.

"What's up with your hair?" Jared asks. "Yesterday it was my eyes and today it's my hair, great" Bethany scoffs. "No... it's...long, wasn't your hair short?" Jared asks.

"Long? What do you-" Bethany asks before realising as she looks down at the length of her hair. "But how? Overnight?" She mumbles to herself. "Maybe it's your genes, because your shifts are becoming more frequent" Sam shakes it off.

Bethany walks back into the bathroom and searches the drawers for scissors. She finds scissors and tries to cut her hair short again but it grows back.
