Delicate

Contains: Language, sexual themes (including homosexuality so if you're a hater click that lovely back button or read on, who knows – you might like it xD), and mild violence.

Disclaimer: Don't own Twilight. Some housewife does ;)

Author's Note: I think it is very important for me to state that I am not a Twilight fan and that I have only read the first two books. I've skimmed through the 3rd and 4th but that's it so forgive me if I get certain things mixed up. Even though I'm not a Twilight fan, I do like the idea of Jacob/Edward (mainly 'cos I really don't like Bella xD). So no, this doesn't bash Twilight – it's simply slash. So please read, review, and hopefully enjoy. :)

Chapter 1

"You had to get that damn fucking over grown bear, didn't you!?" Jacob yelled at Edward.

"Jacob, language," Bella hissed as people around the three of them started to stare.

"Black, would you act your age, please?"

Jacob snorted, "I'm sixteen – I'm allowed to act like an immature ass! Unlike century-old sort-of dead guy walking next to me!"

"Language, Jake!"

"There's nothing wrong with the bear," Edward rolled his eyes annoyed, ignoring the younger boy's last comment.

Jacob stopped in his tracks to face him, "Nothing wrong with it? If so, how come you made Bella carry it only to have some idiot push her down the water slide?"

"I didn't make her carry it – she only grabbed it because you would not. And it was only one second so I could see what I was doing opening the gate to get out," Edward said as they walked hastily back to the parking lot.

"Still your fault –"

"My fault? Would you –"

"Guys!" Bella raised her voice now, "Would you please lower your voices – I'm embarrassed enough as it is."

Edward turned and put his hands on her shoulders, "Bella, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for our behavior to embarrass you…"

Jacob rolled his eyes and threw his car door open as Edward continued mumbling his dumb apology for acting like an ass (as always, in Jacob's opinion).

…

Driving back, Bella stared at Edward for nearly half an hour before finally saying, "I really wish you would try to get along with him."

Edward narrowed his eyes, "I'm not the problem."

"No. You both are. He's too busy trying to find excuses to argue with you and you're too busy trying to make me to stay away from him to see…," she trailed off, feeling that Edward probably wasn't listening.

"To see what?" Edward asked proving that he was listening.

"To see that I love you both so much and I hate being in between you when you're arguing over the dumbest stuff."

Edward pulled into the Swan driveway and parked, "Did it ever occur to you that maybe arguing with him is what makes it tolerable for me?"

"What?" Bella furrowed her eyebrows, interested on what he meant by that.

As if reading her mind, Edward went on, "Arguing with him make me see…makes it feel like…he isn't as perf…I don't know how to explain it."

"Try."

"Like…I have an excuse to not like him and accept that he's apart of your life…our lives…," Edward bit his bottom lip, knowing that subconsciously he was leaving a lot of things out, "I just want it to be me and you. Always. I want to marry you without some little…kid bickering all the time…I just want you."

Bella smiled lightly, "Edward," he cupped his face in her small hands, "I love you. And nothing will ever change that, but Jacob's important to me, too. You need to accept that and make it work. I need the both you."

Edward grimaced. He didn't want her to need Jacob.

"Maybe that's selfish," she continued, "But it's the way it is. Please try to get along with him."

Edward hid from this thought. Somewhere deep in his subconscious, he almost heard himself say, trust me Bella, you don't want me to.

…

Jacob threw down the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped on it. Ugh, he hated the aftertaste of smoking but he did it anyway. He cracked open a beer and threw himself down on an old beat up couch next to the bonfire.

He and a few friends were in a forest clearing. They had started a good-sized bonfire and had gathered a bunch of old beat up furniture several feet away around it.

Quil came and sat with Jacob, "You really drinking?"

Jacob shrugged and then he chugged down the bottle, "Bella still engaged to the bloodsucker?"

Jake nodded, "That's not what's bothering me."

"Then what is?"

"She wants us, me and pale face, to get along. To be friends." Quil laughed, "She wants us to be buddies – her exact words by the way – she wants me to get over this and just let it go…but I can't. She wants me to pretend that I feel nothing and that I can just do want she wants just because of they way I feel toward her…"

"She sounds selfish…"

Jake turned to see a beautiful girl with long black hair and brown skin looking at him, "Sounds like she wants too much too soon," she said in a low seductive voice.

"And what, you don't?" Quil muttered under his breath.

The girl threw daggers at him with her eyes, "Okayyy, I get the hint – see you later man," Quil said motioning at Jacob before walking away.

Jacob motioned back before giving the girl his full attention, "My name's Andrea."

He put out his hand to her, "Jacob. Jacob Black."

"Nice to meet you, Jacob Black," she said sweetly as her pink lips turned into a devilish smile.

Jacob stood and discovered the girl was only a little shorter than him. He reached six feet exactly now, and was glad that it was taking him a little longer to get to his full height – he didn't want to be seen as a freak in high school.

"So, Jacob Black, ever played I Never?" Andrea's smile grew mischievous and Jacob then understood.

…

Bella and Edward stood around in Bella's room as she modeled a new dress Charlie had bought her. It was green and knee length. She spun around and Edward smiled, "You look beautiful."

She blushed as she said thank you, "Think I'll wear it to Alice and Jasper's anniversary."

"Sounds like a good idea…maybe…maybe you should invite Jacob to come," Edward suggested 'casually'.

Bella looked up at him immediately, "Now, that sounds like a bad idea."

Edward shrugged, "Maybe by then we'll be getting along better."

"Give me one good reason why to believe that," she said smiling, crossing her arms.

"I will make it my best effort to be acquaintances with him," he pulled Bella closer.

"Acquaintances?"

"Alright, alright, friends," he said as he was rewarded with a lingering kiss, "Call him and ask – it's still pretty early."

Bella pulled out her cell phone, "Yeah knowing him he's off at a party somewhere," she said snickering.

…

Jacob threw his head back and groaned loudly; Andrea's head had just gone below his waistline. He panted harshly before she came back up, wiped her mouth, and kissed him again. Jacob was too horny to care…and tipsy .

He rolled the both of them over and caressed her naked breasts in his large hands. She gasped and squirmed as one of his hands slipped in between her thighs. Within a few seconds, he slipped in something different that generated much louder moans from the girl underneath him.

And out of nowhere, his cell phone, feet away in the pocket of his pants, began to ring loudly. His ringtone wasn't the most pleasant to listen to.

Andrea looked up at Jacob who said, "Ignore it. They'll give up in a few seconds."

But Bella did not give up. Jacob made a noise of frustration as he pulled out of Andrea to reach his phone to finally stop the irritating ring, "What, Bella?" he said feeling very frustrated as he threw himself on his back on the ground. Apparently Andrea felt the same as walked over.

Bella paused for a moment taken a back by his greeting, "Hey Jake, sorry am I bothering you?"

"Not at all," Jacob lied threw gritted teeth as Andrea straddled him to continue. He hissed as he felt himself go inside her again.

"Um…are you sure? You sound a little…weird," Bella said confused.

Jacob muffled a couple of moans with his mouth before saying, "Yeah, I'm just a little out of breath. Me and some of the guys were racing and shit. Do you need something?"

"Yeah, I was wondering – do you have any plans for September the sixth?"

"Bells," Jacob said, his voice raspy.

Edward clenched his jaw as his stomach turned. Why was his voice like that?

"What?"

"You should know that I never plan that far ahead."

Bella giggled, "You do now. I was…me and Edward we wondering…"

"No…"

"If you'd come to Alice and Jasper's anniversary bash –"

"What have they been together two hundred and three years now? No thanks. Get back to me when it's been three hundred and sixty-seven," he said sarcastically.

"Jake, please?" Bella looked over at Edward's disapproving face; she could tell he didn't want her to talk Jacob into saying yes.

"I'll think about it," and with those few words, Jacob abruptly hung up and continued what he had been doing…Andrea.

Edward spoke first, "What the hell was he doing? I could hear him panting all the way over here."

Bella shrugged, "He was out running with his friends."

Edward didn't say anything, but somehow hearing those words made his stomach settle.

"And he said that he'd think about it," she walked over to her mirror. She picked up her hair, "Zipper please."

Edward smiled slightly and moved from his frozen state to unzip the dress. He then turned around as Bella dressed into some sleeping clothes.

…

Review, yes? I apologize for that whole Andrea/Jacob thingy...but it was necessary xD.
