I slowly pulled myself out of yet another nightmare. I stretched and rolled out of bed. As I walked towards my closet I became aware that I was not alone. Edward had stayed, just like he had promised. I spun around and ran into his open arms.
"Did you sleep well love?"
"Not really, I have a bad feeling that Jacob is off doing something stupid."
Edward looked at me and pulled me tighter towards him.
"Would you like to go to La Push for a few hours? I have some… plans anyway."
I looked at him suspiciously "Yes, I would like to go to visit Jacob. I just want to make sure that he isn't doing anything he shouldn't be." I gave Edward a weak smile. He laughed and handed me the phone.
"Jacob?"
"Bella! I've missed you so much!"
"What are you doing today? I was thinking about coming to visit."
"That'd be great! Um….there is someone I'd like you to meet while you're here. Keep an open mind ok?"
"Ok? What's going on Jacob?" Edward had started playing with my hair. I gave him a nervous look and he kissed me gently on the cheek.
"Well… after your wedding announcement… I was at the beach and… I imprinted on a girl named Lindsey."
"Jacob, that's wonderful! So I assume that means you two are dating?"
"Yeah. Turns out we have been in classes together for years. I had never noticed her before, but when I did it was like magic. I can't even describe the feeling."
"Well I'm happy for you. I'll be there in about an hour or so."
"Should I meet you at the line?"
"No, I'll drive." I hung up and turned to Edward. He stopped playing with my hair and wrapped his arms around me. Then he pressed his lips against mine. A shiver ran down my back and he pulled away. I quickly pulled him closer to me and kissed him again.
"Bella, I really need to get going. I'll come get you at the line at 2. Ok?"
"I'll miss you." I batted my eyelashes sweetly, hoping for a response I knew he was fighting. I gave him one last kiss and then he was gone. With a sigh I stood up and went to get dressed. I could already tell it was going to be an interesting day.
