I do not own Twilight or any of it's characters. I make no claim on originality, only my own thought out alternate universe plots and scenarios that could have happened in the original books. I do not make any profit to writing this, and never will.
Prologue to drabbles.
[AU: Edward and Bella break up after Eclipse (Movie ending in the medow never happened.) Humor & Romance. Rated K.]
Freshly fallen snow covered the tips of their boots as Jacob and Bella walked the short distance to the rabbit, hand in hand. She had convinced him to see The Nutcracker at the theater (much to his moans and hesitance of watching men in tights dance around a stage) and he'd been quick to pay for both of them, much to her surprise at his formality. Bella promised herself she wouldn't compare; though she knew a certain vampire who would have actually enjoyed the play with her and even conversed with her after. But still, she'd ended things with the frozen perfection months after the newborn fight and it wasn't fair to Jacob - especially after he picked her up, paid, and offered to stop for hot chocolate on the way home from Port Angeles.
She was fading away from the post breakup phase (but not as mournful and zombie esk like before) and things with Jacob were beginning to progress romantically from the kiss on the mountain, to the goodbye at his bedside, to the knocking at the door telling him she'd gone and done the unthinkable. The kiss had ironically made her realize she was undoubtedly in love with Jacob and loosing him would hurt her more then it did or would again with Edward. There was no clutching of the stomach, her breath didn't hitch when she saw a reminder of him, and she didn't feel guilty when Jacob pressed her against the rabbit, lifted her chin with his thumb and index finger, and kissed her as soft as the snowflakes falling above them. After all, this is what he had always wanted for her.
"I'm sorry I grumbled about this earlier." Jacob whispered between kisses.
"Was it as bad as you thought it would be?"
"Nah. Well, aside from all the packages I saw in the white soldier leotards."
