Nessie's POV
Jacob Black looks at me, his dark eyes boring into mine. Even as I stood five metres from him, I saw the sparkle in his eyes. I walk towards him, my steps seeming small compared to his long strides. I wrap my arms around his neck as he picks me up, spinning me round. We hug for what seems like an eternity but in reality is only a few seconds, before we separate. He smiles as he looks at my neck, the necklace he brought me hanging there proudly.
When I was five, well seventeen both mentally and physically, Jake had brought me a beautiful necklace. On a thing gold chain hung a small golden heart. It wasn't plain, no, it was encrusted with small diamonds that took my breath away. I put it on straight away and haven't taken it off since, after it being three years later.
Even though I knew about imprinting, our relationship wasn't hugely romantic. We held hands, hugged and shared a plate of food, but never anything more than that. Things have been changing though lately, things in my mind. When I was alone, I longed for Jake to be with me as I missed his warm presence. I got even more excited then usual when I saw him, my face lighting up like it was Christmas day. I also felt something though. I was nervous when he was around, scared that he truly didn't like me. I knew he did though, from the smile that was always on his face. The smile that would warm my heart until it burned.
I had asked dad about my feelings one day, asking what I was actually feeling. The reply shocked me, how could I not recognise it? Love. I loved Jacob. Of course I did, he was my best friend. But no, dad said I loved him differently. I was in love with him. It was the feeling dad had for momma. That aunt Alice had for uncle Jazz, Emmett for Rose, grandpa for grandma. It was a romantic feeling.
This worried me, I had never been in love with someone before. Never in my life, and I honestly never thought I would be. This made me even more cautious of my actions around him, watching my step. It was difficult for me to act normal after discovering the true meaning of my feelings, I didn't know if I should tell him or not...maybe I could write a letter? Yeah, I'll do that.
Dear Jacob,
You have been the best friend a girl could wish for, someone I could always rely on no matter what. You understood me at times no one else could and held me while tears leaked out of my eyes. You were there to cover the mistake I made at the first day of school, saving us from having to move again. You taught me things, how to build an engine and how to annoy Paul until he phrased. Have to admit, I loved doing that.
I've always considered you as my best friend, nothing would separate us or change our status. No one, whither vampire, wolf, human or hybrid, would come between us. I would dream about us, best friends running through the woods, dodging the trees. I was wrong though, something changed with me. And I'm scared of what you'll think.
Lately I've been nervous around you and anxious to see you when your not around. Seeing your smile would warm my heart, sending into a blazing fire of happiness. I asked dad about what I was feeling...he said I was in love. That's why I've been acting strange Jake, I'm in love with you. I know it probably sounds stupid but that's how I feel towards you. I was scared to tell you, scared you'd turn away and never speak to me again. I couldn't handle that Jake, so I kept my feelings to myself.
I'm sorry that I feel this way and I understand if you don't return my feelings. I really want us to be friends but I couldn't keep you in the dark about my feelings any longer, I just felt wrong doing so. I understand if you don't feel the same, if you only want to be friends. I can do that, nothing has to change.
I'm sorry if I've ruined everything.
Nessie x
I tuck the folded paper into an envelop, softly writing his name on the front. Its the middle of the night, I sneak to his room. I quietly push open the door before talking light footsteps over to his bed. He was facing away from me, head on the pillow closest to the window. I gently put the letter on the other pillow before sneaking out again. I let out a breath I didn't realise I had been holding and walked to my room.
The bed was warm and inviting, swallowing me up as I lay down. My breathing evened out and my eyes unfocused. Just as they began fluttering shut, a shadow loomed over me, the head of it becoming closer. Before I could panic, a pair of warm lips touched mine. The kiss was small, delicate, as his lips moved against mine. Breaking the kiss, Jake pushed me over so he could lay on the bed. As he wrapped his warm arms around me, I smiled as I fell asleep.
