Chapter 1.

"Will you kiss me, Jacob?" I blurted out, slightly unwilling. I didn't want this to be the last time I saw him, but I also didn't want to have my heart ripped out with my innocent plea.

His eyes widened for a moment, then narrowed into taunting slits. "You're bluffing." He pursed his lips pulled together his thick eyebrows. My heart dropped.

I tried to put as much passion and honesty as I could into my words. "Kiss me, Jacob. Kiss me and come back." I tensed my muscles as I waited for his response.

He hesitated, but it seemed to have worked. He strode towards me, his eyes never leaving mine, his lips parted with eagerness.

His soft lips—something I was not use to—pressed firmly against mine. I tried to ignore this in every possible way. I clenched my fists closed, the knuckle of my right hand screaming, and didn't move my lips.

I focused on the warmth Jacob gave off and the fact that I would be with Edward soon enough. Just a few seconds more and it will all be over with, I told myself.

He noticed that I had shut down, and reached his hand to mine to pull it up to his neck. I unwillingly let it hang there, letting him have his fun while he could. He did the same with my other hand, but instead of just letting my hands rest there, I wove my fingers through his hair and tried to pull his head back.

And, of course, he misinterpreted.

A sort of moan-growl came from the back of his throat, and I couldn't help but melt a little bit. Just a little. His hands at my waist and back of my head flexed and gripped me closer to his body. My breathing came heavy as my heart continued to hammer on my ribs.

This was a foreign battle field for me—his firm muscles encircling me without crushing me, the warmth he gave off, his soft full lips curving with mine, everything. I was use to cold, rock-hard, gentle touches. With Jacob, everything was raw and scorching. Like a wildfire, everything burned around me, but it was an empowering burn. It felt right. No hesitation, no self control, just Jacob.

Just Jacob.

My Jacob.

I didn't deserve this, though. I swore my life to Edward, had promised to marry him.

But along with Edward's undying love came pain and suffering. Pain from almost losing him to the Volturi. Pain from when he left me broken in the woods like a porcelain doll carelessly thrown on the ground. Pain from having him not try to kill me when he kissed me.

My anger grew like a balloon being inflated, and I focused that energy into Jacob's healing kiss. I kissed him back with more passion than I could ever give Edward, more than he could ever give me.

Jacob couldn't break me, I reminded my self over and over as I deepened the kiss with unwavering confidence.

But all too soon, Jacob pulled back, his brown eyes fitting perfectly with my mood. Warm, comforting, and most of all, loving.

"I have to leave," His tone was exactly opposite of what his words said. His voice melted my core.

"No." I gave a small smile, not sure how to respond. My heart had grown so much in seconds; I didn't know how to handle it.

My answer pleased him, and my favorite grin in the entire world spread across his face.

Tearing my eyes away from his, I hesitantly glanced down at his lips for a moment. He caught my eyes and leaned down until our lips met once more, but this time the wildfire was more like molten lava. Slow, burning under the surface, willing to catch on fire at any moment.

Impossibly, when he pulled back, his expression grew even warmer, and it felt like everything had taken on a shade of gold.

"That should have been our first kiss. Better late than never," He grinned at me.

I remembered back to when Jacob first kissed me, the day I punched him in the jaw. I smiled at the memory now instead of scowling. I wished I could have enjoyed it when I had the chance.

I internally shrugged and pressed my head into his chest, joyful tears spilling over the rims of my eyes as I realized that this was where I wanted to stay for the rest of my life.

Forever in Jacob's arms.

Author's note: Hey – so this is my first chapter in my version of Eclipse. I've always been Team Jacob and have spent countless hours daydreaming(when I should've be doing work) about what it would be like if Bella ended up with Jacob. I promise there will be more chapters!

Thanks for reading!
