And with an inscrutable look in his dark eyes he observes how I walk out of his room.

Chapter 1: I'll say goodbye

I step towards Edward who's waiting for me. We get in his car and we drive to his house. When we get there I see Alice with a rare look. I wonder what's going on. 'Did you say goodbye to the dog?" he asks. I look up at him: 'What did you say? Dog? Goodbye? Can't I see Jake when I'm a vampire?' 'Of course not Bella! It's dangerous for a vampire to be with an werewolf.' I feel an anger coming up: 'Do you wanna ruin this friendship?' I see the look on his face. No! No, he couldn't. I get it instantly. 'Your still jealous even when you know that I've chosen you. I can't believe it. I thought that you were friendly and tolerant.' I see his red eyes. 'That was so you'd stay with me. I've been waiting so long to taste your blood again that I'm not going to give that up.' I feel that my mouth is fallen open. What did he just say? I give Edward a punch in the face. My hand hurts but that felt good. Otherwise, he's really devastated that I did that. Alice, who stands next to me, says this: 'If that's your choice, Bella, well, than we all agree. Right, Edward?' I see him nodding. Alice gives me her wedding gift that she would give me on the wedding. But the wedding is of now. That I can tell you. The wedding gift is a motorcycle. It's the one that Jacob and I worked on for a couple of weeks. I step on the bike and drive straight to Jacob. My one and only. How could I've mist this? I've always loved him. It was not Edward but Jacob. I was just afraid that Edward would bite me. I bring the sentences back that Edward said about "the dog". I close my eyes and open them immediately when I hear something. It's the sand under the wheels of the motorcycle. I'm in La Push. I get of the bike and run straight to Jacob's house. I knock on the door. I hear a cough and look aside. Billy sits there in his wheelchair. 'Sorry, I hadn't seen you,' I apologize. 'What are you doing here?' says Billy. He's probably mad at me because I broke Jacob's heart. 'I'm coming for Jacob,' is my respond. 'I've changed my mind.' A little smile is coming on that face, but it disappears quickly: 'He has slipped away. He was very sad and I saw him running into the forest.' Oh no! Oh no oh no oh no! He's not going to kill himself. Maybe I'm overreacting, but I've made my mind: I'm going to look for him. I run the forest in and I see the house of the Blacks disappear. I hear a branch. I look up and see a wolf in a tree. He has a sad look upon his face. He jumps towards me and steps into the forest. I know that he's coming back. After a few seconds, I feel hot air coming behind me. It's Jacob. I turn around and look straight into his eyes. He has a serious look on his face: 'Bells, What's wrong? Why are you here?' I think I'm smiling like a freak and say: 'I think I've made the wrong decision.' His eyes are wide open now. He stands a couple of meters away from me, but he comes closer. I step into his direction also. He put his hand on my cheek. His lips met mine and I enjoy it. His lips are really warm and soft. God! I feel a heat coming up. I don't know if that's from Jake's body temperature or me. My friendship with Jacob turned out to be something different. Jacob stops with kissing me. I look at his face and I see a big smile. I'm smiling back, I think. 'Why did you changed your mind?' Jake asks me. 'I think I prefer warmth over cold. I realized that I love you more than Edward.' We are standing there now for a whole minute. He's so quiet that I almost freak out. Suddenly he says something: 'That's not a reason.' I know what he means and I lean forward. KRRRRRR A branch. I hear Jacob growl and turn around. I see my ex-boyfriend. His face is so different. I could almost say that he's bloodthirsty. 'Can you keep the secret of the vampires?' Edward asks me. 'Of course. I think I did that already.' 'Yeah, but that was when I had you eaten out of my hand. Now not anymore.' It's quiet time again, because nobody's saying anything. I hear Jake jumping up and down. Jacob steps right to Edward and his hand is leaning forward. 'If you like, I want to be friends,' he asks. I look at the expression of Edward. 'Well I'm not. Remember, were still sworn enemies. In the love too.' My eyes, who were looking on the ground, come up and I look at him. 'Excuse me, but you two WERE enemies in the love. Got it, Edward?' I see his bloodthirsty look again. He turns around and runs into the dark parts of the forest. What did I ever see in him? He was just in for my blood. That son of a leech. That filthy bloodsucker. He had just seduced me. Jacob turns to me and looks at me with eyes of joy and love. 'I guess we should tell Charlie?' he asks. 'Yes, we should.' Suddenly, I hear thunder. Oh no! I see lighting. Oh no! I run out of the forest into Billy's and Jake's house. Just when I got in, the rain is falling down. Jake comes in. He's soaked. He explains everything to his dad. When he's finished, he wants to hug me. I still see that he's still whet. I step back. When the rain is gone, we take the motorcycle to talk with Charlie. When we get there, my father just locks the door. He sees us holding hands. His eyes fly wide open and he screams: 'Finally.' Wow! I could think that he would be happy, but not THAT happy.

A couple of days later are we sitting on Jacob's couch. I open the letter that Jacob gave me when I got here. I recognize the handwriting instantly: Alice.

Dear Bella,

it's been great so far. I know that we've talked about this and you know what? We are staying in Forks. So you can still visit us. It's even more comfortable for you with Edward not around.

I stop with reading. Is Edward gone? He just left? Well, it's better for us and for him. I read the letter further.

I know what you're thinking now: better for you two and for him. But he has joined the Volturi. I know that that's bad, but I think that he wouldn't hurt you. Or us.

Love,

Alice.

He has joined the VOLTURI. Oh! My! God! How could he joined that group of filthy bloodsuckers. I turn my head and see the look on Jacob's face: worried. I give him a peck. He's a little less worried now. I look at the letter once again and lay him on the table. I hope that the Volturi and Edward aren't going to bother us. I give Jake another peck on the lips.
