A/N:Ok So this is my first fanfic. It was originally just a thought I jotted down about Bella and eventually turned into alot of 'what if's'. So please read as there is lots more to come. I can't say what yet because it'd spoil what I'm working up to.

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing Twilight-related, only Stephenie Meyer does.

Chapter 1 - Cliff Diving

10:30 on a Saturday morning and here I was in LaPush standing on a cliff overlooking the ocean. Jacob had promised me that he would take me cliff diving today, but he had had to cancel at the last minute. Pack stuff and all.

I was bummed, but I wasn't about to waste a perfectly sunny day by staying home and doing chores. Sunny days in forks was a rare thing and I intended to spend this one outdoors.
So here I was on the highest point of the cliff debating whether to jump or not. I wanted to, but I wasn't sure If I should from this high up on my first jump. When you're down below and looking up it's easy to say, No problem I could do that. But when you're actually up here and looking down, suddenly it doesn't look all that easy.

I stepped up to the edge of the cliff and peered down. The water below looked calm enough, so I didn't think I would have too much trouble swimming to shore.

That's it, I was ready. "Let's do this." I told myself outloud.
I was just about to jump when I heard "His" voice.

Bella No!

I gasped, startled by the angry velvet voice. I lost my footing and began plummeting like a rock toward the ocean below, screaming as I fell.

When I finally reached the water, I hit it at an odd angle and it knocked the breath out of me. I felt water filling my lungs as I sank below the surface, then nothing as I slipped into unconciousness.

"Breathe"
Warm hands were on my chest, forcing the water from my lungs. "Breathe!" A husky voice pleaded. "Please, come on, breathe!"

This was certainly a strange and painful dream. My throat felt rubbed raw as the last of the water left my lungs and was replaced with air. I was breathing again, in painful, ragged gasps. My throat burned, and I made an effort to slow my breathing.

"Thank goodness." The voice said and then everything went dark again as the dream faded.

When I was concious, I was disoriented. The dream had been the most realistic one I'd had in a while. I wasn't even sure if I was really awake or if this was still a dream.
I was sure of one thing: I wasn't in bed. It felt like I was being rocked, and whatever was holding me was way too warm. The heat felt good to my wet body though.

"Bella?" A familiar husky voice called to me in a worried tone.
I rubbed at my eyes and when they opened I saw Jacob's anxious face starring down at me.

"Jacob?" I tried to say his name but it came out mumbled. It hurt to speak and my throat was still burning.
"Wh-what's going on?" I managed to whisper.

"Bella, thank goodness." He crushed me to his chest in a hug, my face smothered in the heat of him. "Jeez, Bells you almost gave me a heart attack! Why the heck did you jump?" He pulled me away from his chest to stare me in the eyes, clearly upset. I looked blankly at me, confused. "I thought we agreed to do it a different day. I told you it wasn't safe on your own. Especially for someone like you." He said that last part with a wry smile on his face and i knew what he meant by it. I was a danger magnet and he was trying to protect me.

"But Jake, I didn't jump." I said shaking my head. And suddenly I began to realize that my dream might not have been much of a dream after all.

"What do you mean? Bella, your truck was still up on the cliff, I found you down here unconcious on the shore." He told me. He was gazing into my eyes intently.

"I don't really remember what happened.."

"Great, so I leave you alone for a few hours and you go cliff diving, probably hit your head and now you've got amnesia?" He sighed, frustrated, and shook his head.

I nodded slowly. I figured he was right. I didn't remember anything except the dream, so he had to be right.

"I'd better get you to the hospital, you could have a concussion." I realized then that we were standing by my truck. Jacob opened the passenger side door and set me inside.

"No, I'm ok Jake," I protested. "I just want to go home and get cleaned up." A nice long shower was sounding really good right now. I just wanted to go home and into some dry clothes.

"Please, just take me home. If we go to the hospital then Charlie will here about it. I really don't want him to get all worked up over nothing."

"It's not nothing, Bells." Jacob muttered, but he must've decided I was right because he didn't say anything after that. He just drove me home.

The ride back to my house was quiet. Neither of us spoke a word. I didn't know why Jacob was so quiet, but the only reason I didn't say anyhing was because of my throat.

As soon as we were inside, I went straight for the medicine cupboard. After much searching I found the sore throat medication, taking as much as I thought I could handle.

Jacob decided to stay over at least until Charlie came back from watching the game with Billy. He was just worried about me I supposed.

"Jake, you don't have to stay here. I'll be fine on my own." I tried to reassured him. "I don't want to waste your Saturday. I'm just going to be taking a shower, a quick nap and then finishing up some chores around here. You'll just be bored."

"It's ok, I don't mind sticking around." He smiled back at me. "You always stick around when I fall asleep, so now it's my turn to stay while you do."

I could tell he wasn't going to leave no matter what I said. I didn't want to argue with him right now. My head hurt and I was feeling dizzy, so I dropped it.
"Fine, but don't complain to me when you get bored and end up leaving. I'll just say I told you so." I knew I was being childish, but i didn't care. I just turned around and headed up the stairs.

I ended up tripping only once on the way up, but managed to catch myself before I tumbled all the way down. I could've sworn I heard Jacob snickering at me as he headed for the couch to rest abit.

Once safely upstairs, I found a clean pair of old sweats and a t-shirt, and set them aside to change into later after my shower.

In the bathroom, I cranked the shower knob onto warm and quickly peeled off my salty, wet clothes. The moment I climbed into the shower and let the warm water wash over me, I immediately felt much better. I rubbed my arms and closed my eyes, letting the water rinse the ocean salt away from my body.

I'd only had my eyes closed for a minute, but that was all it took for the dizziness to make me loose my balance and slip, brining the many shampoo and shower gel bottles come crashing down with me. Something was really wrong with me today. I was a klutz, yes, but not this bad. At least I didn't think i was. I lay there stunned for for a moment, the room was spinning and my head ached. I closed my eyes and waited for the room to stop spinning.

"Bella?" Jacob's voice was too loud and close I realized. I opened my eyes and saw that he was staring down at me with half a smile tugging at his lips.
"Can't get enough of that falling sensation, huh Bells?" He chuckled, reaching over me to turn off the water and then draping a towl over me. "You sure are doing alot of falling today. Maybe I should've taken you to the hospital after all."
Jacob lifted me effortlessly into his arms and I rested my head against his feverishly warm chest.

"Let's get you to bed." He said, carrying me out of the bathroom. "You look tired."

"Yeah, all this falling down sure takes a lot out of a girl." I mumbled sarcastically.

Jacob chuckled and set me on my bed. I fell back against my pillows, exhausted despite the long nap I took on the beach, and pulled the covers over my naked body.

"Jake, I need to change." I yawned. "So can you leave the room, please?"

"No." He said flatly and I felt the mattress sink under his weight as he climbed into bed with me.

"Jacob! Wha-" I started to protest but he silenced me with a finger to my lips.

"Stop squirming Bella. Don't worry, I won't look and I'm not going to do anything. Just go to sleep." He whispered and pulled me against his body so that we were facing eachother on our sides. He tucked my head under his chin so that my cheek was pressed against his bare chest.

"Jacob, please..." I whined. I wasn't to comfortable with this. It was akward for me with him being the only one with clothes on and me with nothing but a towel to cover myself with.

"Shh, Bella." He shushed me and held me tighter to him. One of his arms wrapped around my waist while the other slowly stroked my wet hair away from my face. "Sleep now, Bella." He continued to whisper, and strangely his low husky voice began to lull me to sleep. "Just sleep."

And I did. In the heat of Jacob's body, I slipped into an oddly peacful sleep.
