Standing by or waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong….
BANG! BA-BANG! BANG!
I pull my earbuds out of my ear just as Dad walks into my room. He has the same face he has been wearing lately whenever Jacob comes over so I know what he is going to say before he even opens his mouth. I jump up from the bed.
"Hey Nessie," he says.
"Hi Dad," I reply while quickly hugging him," Is Jake here?"
There's that face again.
"Yeah, have a good time honey."
I run down the stairs skipping every other one and almost run into Jake standing by the front door with Mom. I realize Mom is making an odd face too, maybe not as much as Dad, but it is definitely there.
"Whoa! Slow down Nessie we've got all day!"
I give Jake a big hug and see Mom's odd face deepen her brow creasing. I decide to let it go until I get back home.
"Let's go Jake!" I say urgently. We were going to Super Adventure Land, my favorite.
"Kay! Bells, we'll be back by ten!" Jake said as I pulled him out the door to his car.
Once we are in the car I find the cord the plug in my mP3 player, and soon we are on the road.
"So, how is school going?" Jake asks me.
"It's good, but most of my classes are very easy. Being is sophomore is so much better than being a freshman."
That makes Jake smile. I am pretty advanced for being 16. Having a family of vampires around 80 years old helps quite a lot.
"I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby" plays in the background
"Any boyfriends?" he quizzed.
I look over at him and sigh.
"No, all of the boys at school are idiots, I don't like any of them. All Bailee, Neveah, and Chasity ever talk about is boys and who they like. Am I weird?"
It's always been so easy to talk about stuff like this with Jacob. I tell him stuff I would never dream of telling my parents.
For some reason he is smiling.
"No, definitely not, you will find someone. You are only 16"
Just then my favorite song plays and I start singing along.
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh (uh, oh)
The ballad of a dove (oh, uh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
I finish the song and realize Jake is staring at me.
"What? And get your eyes on back on the road; Dad would kill you if I died, "I joke.
"Ha! Ha! Very funny! First off, I don't like that song much. I mean who makes a song about kids dying. It's messed up. I don't like thinking about it."
"Especially you," he adds very quietly.
"What was that last part?" I question.
"Nothing…anyway, you are a really good singer. I don't think I have ever heard you sing, must take after your dad."
I blush furiously, THAT I get from my mom. Jake laughs and just then we pull into Super Adventure Land. We hop out of the car and I walk over to him. He takes my hand. This may seem romantic or something but it's not. Jake is like my big brother and best friend all rolled into one. I look up at him smiling.
"Remember, this time you promised you would go on the space needle with me," I teased him.
He gulped. Jake can do any roller coaster or any spinning ride, but when it comes to the space needle, a ride in which we are brought 200 feet into the air and then dropped, he is a complete chicken.
"Right…About that…." He stalled.
"Come on Jake, Please," I whined while giving my best puppy dog face.
He gulped again.
"Alright, for you," he replied.
After a great day, we got into the car to drive home. I was listening to my music and the next thing I knew I was being lifted from the car by huge arms. I knew it was Jake and decided to just go back to sleep. I felt him go up the steps to my house and knock on the door before letting himself in. I faintly heard him calling out to my parents that he would bring me upstairs to my room. Before I knew it I was being laid on my bed, my shoes were being taken off, and I was being tucked in. The thing that brought me out of my doze was when I felt warm lips pressing against my forehead.
This isn't unusual for Jake. He often kisses my forehead or cheek on departure. The thing that woke me up was the feeling of electricity running from the spot where his lips hit down my spine. I had never had this feeling before. I kept still until I heard the click of the door being closed and then I jumped up to get my diary.
Dear Diary,
I had the best day with Jake today. I even got him to go on the space needle with me but he closed his eyes the whole time.
Anyway, the reason I am writing this is because I just had something weird happen. I had fallen asleep on the ride home so Jake carried me upstairs and kissed my forehead. When he kissed me the spot where his lips hit got all tingly and it felt like electricity was running down my spine. What does this mean? Oh Well.
Also, Whenever Jake comes over Mom and Dad make funny faces. It's like they are worried, deep in thought, and anxious all at once. I'm going to have to ask Aunt Alice tomorrow.
