My Best Friend's Baby
I walked up Jacob's porch and knocked on the door. "Jacob!" I hissed. "Open the door!"
Jacob opened it and looked at me, surprised and wary. "Bella? What are you doing here?" here asked, looking around.
I sighed. "Everyone's gone and I'm bored! Wanna hang out tonight?" I asked.
Jacob frowned at the floor. Suddenly, his head snapped up and his eyes gleamed for a second. Then they dulled back to normal. "Sure," he agreed. "I'm supposed to do rounds now but maybe you can come."
"Jacob, you run faster than a jet plane flies. How am I supposed to keep up?" I raised an eyebrow.
He grinned and lead me into the woods. "It's called riding wolf-back," he whispered into my ear before phasing to a wolf.
"No way!" I cried. "I'll fall…or hurt you! Jake really I can wait."
He grunted and rolled his eyes. "Get on," was the only thing I saw in his eyes.
Slowly I got on and grabbed some of his fur. "If I fall, I blame you," I warned.
Jacob coughed his throaty laugh, then lifted his head and howled. Then he took off running. I laughed. I felt free!
A Few Hours Later
Jacob turned to me as we sat on his tiny couch drinking lemonade. "Bella, why did you come over tonight?" he asked, his dark eyes boring into mine.
I shrugged and looked down. "Well…after Edward gets back he's going to…" I looked only at the floor. Jacob growled. "…and I figured that sense I'm leaving my human world, I should full fill every thing that I'll be missing," I finished.
Jacob looked at me, his eyes suddenly brighter. "Everything?" he asked in a low, excited voice.
I watched him nervously. "Yeah…" I said slowly. I stood up to get more lemonade. Jacob followed me. He leaned over and whispered in my ear.
"Everything about human life?" he questioned.
I turned to him, frowning. "Yeah. I'm heading over to Angela's for a sleep over tomorrow," I answered, uneasy by Jacob's expression. "and then Jessica is taking us all for a shopping spree. They think I'm leaving with Edward in a few days."
Jacob nodded, his eyes brighter than ever. "Intresting," he murmmerd.
I watched him critically. "What are you thinking?" I asked nervously.
He crossed the small kitchen and gently placed his hands on my shoulders. My breath froze. "You forgot something about human life that your missing," he whispered.
"What?"
He looked at me for a long time. I gasped. Suddenly I knew what he was talking about.
