Hey guys sorry for the mishap. I took down the existing chapters of My Love My Enemy for editing them a little bit. The new chapter will be up soon! To my continuing readers, thanks for sticking with me. Nothing major has been changed, just some spelling or sentence errors, if I do change something big (more than likely not) I'll write it in the author's note.
To those who are just starting now, hope you like it!
Stephenie Meyer owns all names that are apart of the Twilight Saga, any other names are my own.
My name is Bella. This is my story.
I've lived in Forks all my life. You know that saying "There's never a dull moment"? Yeah well Forks is pretty much the exact opposite of that. You can't imagine how boring this place is. So dull, so lifeless. So.…Forks. Having nothing to do here it's always good to have someone to keep you company.
I have Jacob.
I've known Jacob all my life. At first Jacob and I couldn't stand each other. We went through the usual boy and girl things. We thought the other had cooties. We admitted that we had the occasional crush on each other but now we're closer than ever. He's pretty much my best friend. He lives with his dad down at La Push, the Native American reservation. When I'm not with my dad Charlie (which is hardly) I spend most of my time there. I'd give anything to get out of Forks even for a minute. It's not that I hate Forks, really I love it, its just I feel like I'm destined for more, for something exciting I'm just waiting for it to happen. When I'm around Jake all of my worries just seem to float away. Jake and I are inseparable. Nothing can stand in the way of our friendship. We made a pact when we were 10 that no matter what happens between us we'll always be there for each other. My story, well our story, is a true test of that pact. Well, enough talking I'll just let you see for yourself.
That one day started our twisted tale.
I was sitting on our driftwood log just staring out into the ocean.
"Hey Bells how's it going?" Jake said as he walked toward me.
"The same as it always is."
"Yeah things are pretty boring lately." He said with a sigh as he sat down next to me.
He grabbed my hand and our fingers intertwined. It never bothered me, this was our normal thing.
"How's Billy?" I asked while still looking away.
"He's okay I guess. I mean how would you be if you were in a wheelchair?"
"Yeah." I said while staring into the distance.
I turned to look at him and my eyes widened with shock.
"Woah! You've grown so much!"
Jake was growing faster than normal. Was there something in the water in La Push? Almost all of Jake's friends were starting to tower over me.
So much for being the older one. I thought.
"Steroids?" I asked jokingly.
"Nope, all me and all man." He said with a smile.
You know even though we're the best of friends Jake was one good looking kid. The way the sun reflected off of his red-brown skin, the way his long jet black hair moved like silk. He was simply….mesmerizing.
"Bells? Bella? Bells honey? You ok?" Jake was trying to snap me out of my trance.
"Hmm? Yeah I'm fine. Sorry about that." This wasn't the first time I've been caught.
"So yeah…umm." Jake seemed at a loss for words.
"Well now I think the question is are you ok?"
He laughed."Yeah well what I was trying to say was if you would want to go get something to eat later today?"
I faked horror "Did Jacob Black just ask me out on a date!"
"Yeah ok say whatever you want but…will you?" He looked up at me with those puppy dog eyes I can never say no to.
"Yeah, sure, why not!" I tried to seem nonchalant but actually I was thrilled at the idea!
"Cool, well I told Billy I wouldn't be out here long so I guess I better get back."
"Oh sure, no problem. Tell Billy I said hi!"
"I will. I'll be at your house around seven."
"Kay. Bye." I blushed.
"Bye Bells." He kissed me on the cheek.
I got in my truck and started down the road. I was halfway home when it hit me.
I'm going on a date with Jacob Black.
