stupid hormones, if I never felt this way about Jacob I don't think I'd end up in my room throwing stuffed animals at my wall to take out my frustrations. How would I ever tell Jake that I liked him? He was right downstairs sitting on my couch watching the game with Grandpa Charlie daddy and mom. We were supposed to hang out down at La Push beach later on, had he forgotten? Or did he just not care? We are like best friends of course he wouldn't forget. I sat there at my bed starring at my promise bracelet that Jacob gave me my first Christmas. He told me that the bracelet represented our relationship and how much we would be there for each other. Well then wouldn't that mean that I could just go up to him and tell him that I like loved him more than a friend, and he would be alright with it? But what if he already imprinted? And what if it wasn't me? (Yeah I sure wish)

"Nessie game is over come down and say bye to Grandpa Charlie!" I heard my mom yell from outside getting ready to drive him home. I hoped that Jake wasn't leaving either.
I got downstairs in 3 seconds and hugged grandpa goodbye. Dad had already left to go hunt with Uncle Emmett and uncle jasper. That left me alone on the porch with Jake.

"So I believe we have a trip to the beach tonight" he said, his eyes glistening at me as he spoke the way he always did.

"Oh well I thought you had forgot"

"me? Forget? Ness you're my best friend I would never forget about you"

so I knew that Jake cared about me, telling him how I felt now seemed much easier. I had to get the words out on the table. Besides how bad could jakes reaction be? I took his hand and pulled him out to the driveway. "

"I'll race ya" I challenged

" oh really? Well we'll see who wins this time" he muttered already taking a head start in the distance.
