Bella stood shivering outside Billy Black's front door, desperate to see Jake. She pounded again; once, twice, three times. She bounced from foot to foot; annoyed that Jake was ignoring her. Didn't he know she was here because she'd changed her mind? The little voice in her head whispered, "Maybe he doesn't care anymore. Maybe he doesn't want you. Maybe you're a complete moronic, idiotic, and hopeful fool."
Bella awkwardly brushed her hair back, uncertainty making her step back. She was ready to bolt and put this silly plan behind her when the door finally opened. Jake stood before her, clad in his usual jean shorts and nothing else. His hair was still on the shorter side, but it was beginning to grow out a little. The areas where it was longer stuck out messily giving him a nice case of bed head.
His dark eyes were cooler than she cared to see. Biting her lip, she stared back at him until he finally said, "Well? You woke me up, so you better have a damn good reason for being here."
The last time she'd seen him, she told him her choice was made. Bella had chosen Edward, gave Jake the kiss-off, and then to make matters worse she told him she still loved him. How much more fickle could she be? She stared at this angry Jake, still at a loss for words, but felt that warmth that came to her in a dream. It hadn't been long after she made her decision, but she had woken with a new resolve. If she and Edward were truly meant to be, she never would have fallen in love with Jake. She would've only cared about him as a friend.
Her mind and body told her it was Jake that she was meant to be with. With sadness in her heart, she told Edward and sent him and his family on their way. She'd loved him, but it was a little girl's love. She wanted to try a real relationship; one with give-and-take, one where she didn't have to change everything about who she was to be with him. Jake could give her that, and she thought he was still in love with her, too.
Jake's eyes flared with impatience, but before he could say anything, Bella spluttered in a rush, "I'minlovewithyouandwanttobewit hyou."
Those dark eyes registered confusion as he tried to understand what she just said. Bella's cheeks felt hot, the flush was spreading, and she felt like a complete dope.
"I'm sorry… I'll just go…" she managed to stutter before turning to make a run for it.
Instead, she felt Jake's fingers circle her wrist to hold her in place. When she turned around, Bella found herself stumbling forward into Jake as he gave her what he probably presumed was a gentle tug. It was more like a yank-and-crash. "Do you mean it?" he asked his tone hard to read.
Bella nodded fervently. "I made a mistake, Jake. I told Edward what I wanted, so they all left. They're gone. I wanted you all along; it just took me forever to figure it out. I'm sorry."
Jake didn't say anything, but he really didn't have to. When his lips crashed onto hers, Bella understood. She looped her arms around his neck, pulling herself closer and nearly scaling the length of his body to be closer that that even. She laughed breathlessly when he boosted her up, holding her easily, and they continued to kiss.
For someone who was so graceful, who had the strength and skill to slink around the woods and hunt vampires, Bella realized Jake was really clumsy when it came to matters of sexual exploration. His two kisses prior to this had been a little klutzy as he dove toward her with a surprising gusto. Now? He was practically swallowing her face as they kissed.
Giggling at his lack of finesse, Bella couldn't help but realize she was practically doing the same thing. Virginal yet horny, they stumbled into the kitchen, eager to touch. Jake stumbled and crashed into the refrigerator as Bella nibbled on his lower lip, his hips jerking slightly against hers. She clung to his shoulders as he crashed through the tiny house, ricocheting off of the sofa, the wall, and anything that got in the way of his destination. His hands were nearly everywhere at once.
He stumbled over the clothes on his bedroom floor, his hands grasping her backside in his haste to keep her from falling, and his fingers grazed just between her thighs in the exact right spot. Bella gasped as his fingers wedged between her thighs from behind, which set off a resulting cascade of feelings coursing down her body to her hoo-hah.
"Oh fuck," Jake ground out as he stumbled yet again over another obstacle, sending them crashing to the bed. Bella couldn't help the explosive giggle that burst out even as she whacked her head on his head board. She was glad Jake didn't realize what happened just before their fall, though.
"Oh my God, Jake," she gasped, her breath wheezing from the combination of his body weight and laughing.
His face was sheepish and mortified, but Bella smoothed his hair back, trying to refrain from laughing again. The poor guy was turning red. "It's okay," she said, her voice shaking as she struggled to suppress her laughter. "I'm fine."
He shifted around awkwardly. "Cockblocked by my own damn mess," he said with a sigh.
Bella cracked up again, slapping her hand over her mouth. Jake flushed again, but he gave her an evil smile. "Go ahead and laugh at my expense, Bells. I know what happened just before we crash-landed." He wiggled his eyebrows at her and it was her turn to blush profusely.
She punched him the shoulder and soon they were both laughing at their first misguided attempt at having sex.
