This is a piece I wrote in my creative writing class a few months ago. I was trying to explore Jacob's bitter side. Hope you enjoy.


Conversations With a Werewolf

I.

First of all, who needs her?

Her, with her brown hair and

Her adorable clumsiness. She

Doesn't need me, of all people -

She's got him;

That leech, that blood-sucking,

No good mosquito -

Why can't she see? Why can't

She see he's no good?

II.

I hate him.

That perfection is all a lie;

A bait, a tease, a trap,

To lure unsuspecting prey

To their deaths. And what he

Did to her,

Shattered her. Broke her into

Thousands of tiny pieces.

Guess who put her back together?

Me.

But did she choose me?

No. She chose the perfection instead.

III.

I can't believe she ran back to him.

Saved him, for crying out loud, after

What he did to her.

I would never have forgiven him

For putting me through that,

If I were her.

But she's that type. The forgiving

Type. Holding grudges was never

One of her strong points.

IV.

I hate being just a friend.

I was never more than friend to her,

Not with that parasite around. She

Only came to me when he wasn't there,

To fill the empty space. And what did she

Do?

Ditched me.

All for that stupid, no good, parasite deer

Tick of a vampire.

V.

Bella, hun,

Hate to break it to you, but

Werewolves are better.
