I awoke to a dimly lit room. I looked around for a minute, as the events of what happened to me flashed through my head. I rolled over to find myself inches from Jacob's face. He smiled nervously, obviously from the closeness. But it didn't bother me. He smiled again, waiting for me to speak, and my stomach fluttered. I shook my head slightly and smiled. "Hey Jake." At this distance, I noticed that he smelled woodsy and overall nice. I pulled back a little. "Thanks." I smiled happily. He nodded. I moved closer and hugged him tightly. He obviously hadn't been expecting it, as his eyes were as big as salad bowls. "Jaaaaake, you're gonna let the flies in your mouth." I sang. He shook his head and cleared his throat. "How are you feeling?" He asked. I shrugged. "Can't complain." He smiled sadly. "What happened in there?" I froze, knowing exactly what he was talking about. "I guess I'll start from the beginning, you don't know the full story about Ed- him." I sighed. He leaned forward a bit, obviously interested, but there was sympathy in his eyes.
"Well, it started when we came back from the Cullen's house," I began. "Don't get mad at this okay, he feels bad enough already." He nodded. "Who feels bad?" He asked, confused. "Jasper does, it's my fault. You see, Jasper is the newest member of the Cullen family and he doesn't have as much control. I, the clumsy imbecile that I am, cut myself with wrapping paper -yes, wrapping paper- and Jasper smelt the blood and tried to drink my blood." I paused as Jacob growled, so I glared at him. "Jacob, Jasper can't help it, he had his own bloodlust which should have been able to make him be in control, but because of his empathic abilities, he had to deal with the bloodlust of everyone in the room as well." Jacob nodded slowly. "Oh okay then." I was relieved that he understood, Jasper must not be blamed. I nodded back and continued. "Edward took me straight home and left me there. Over the next few days he grew distant; always zoning out or just not talking at all. It was then when the family disappeared form school, and I knew it was something other than hunting, because their eyes were gold when they left. When I came home one day, he was next to the house and I knew it was the end." I gulped. This is where the story begins.
"He took me in the woods and confirmed my fears; he didn't love me anymore and then he left me in the woods. That's where Sam found me." My voice broke a bit at the end. "Over the course of the next three months, it hurt even to think his name, otherwise I'd be ripped open. If someone mentioned him, I'd break down and it's felt as if I was being split in half." By this time, tears were streaming down my face. "Oh Bella, I didn't even know." Jacob frowned sadly and hugged me tightly. He was warm, very warm, one of the benefits of my fuzzy werewolf friend. I pulled away, feeling a bit detached. I groaned inwardly at the feeling, it hurt just a little bit. "And I have nightmares every night, so I don't sleep well, and I was nearly unconscious in the shower, and then I slipped and my head hit the ground and it knocked me out. When I came to, you were there and yeah." I finished. He nodded sadly. It hurt to see Jake in pain. "Well, you're head's alright, it helped that you've been out of it for a while." He smiled crookedly. My Jacob, always there, smiling.
I walked up to the door of Jake's house. Billy told me to come in before I reached the door. I smiled, today I was feeling really light and carefree. Edward was the least of my worries. I walked into the house. "Good morning Billy!" I yelled out and I skipped into Jake's room. I swear I saw Billy laughing at my skipping. "No laughing old man!" I yelled out to him. I heard him burst out laughing. I opened Jake's door and saw him on the bed, red faced and laughing. "That's hilarious! Bella skipping, never thought I'd see the day!" He got out through the laughs. I grinned. "He's a horrible old man, ruining my fun." I said, shaking my fist at the door for emphasis. Jacob's laugh got louder but it eventually died down. "Anyways, do you wanna go to the beach?" I asked, or maybe a begged a little. He nodded, got up and grabbed my arm. I made sure I skipped back out of the house, much to Billy's amusement.
Jacob smiled as he sat in the driver's seat of the rabbit. "What?" I asked. "I think you really cheered up my dad." He smiled. I smiled crookedly. He put the key in the ignition and drove off to La Push beach. The car slowed down and he jumped out of the car, but not before me. I had to admit; Jacob really had changed me these last couple of days. Although something clicked in my brain at that moment; I think I like Jake, more than just a friend. I smiled at this a little.
"What is it?" Jake said snapping me back to reality. "Nothing." I said, the smile still on my lips. He grabbed me hand and my stomach fluttered. God, what is this boy doing to me? He led me up to the cliff and pulled me down to sit with him. Wow, he is gorgeous I thought. I shook my head. "Bella, I want to talk to you about Edward." He said nervously. I growled at the mentioned name. He moved back from me, just an inch. When did I get this perceptive? I thought, but at the moment, not caring. "Bella since when do you growl? Do you want a growling competition?" He asked, a gleam in his eyes. "Just say his name, and I'll beat your wolfy growl." I said in fake haughtiness. Jacob smiled evilly. "Edward." He said. I thought of all of the things he'd made me feel, what he's done. I snarled. I may as well have struck Jake, because he shot back a bit. "You win." He said in submission, his eyes as big as dish plates. I grinned in triumph. "Anyways," I continued. "What did you want to talk the leech for?" I asked in distain. Jake look a bit shocked at my choice of vocabulary. I signaled for him to continue, with a gesture of my hand. He paused and took a deep breath.
"Do you love him?" He asked anxiously. I thought for a minute, and surprisingly, not even an ounce of me felt any love for that "Bloodsucker!" I froze, knowing I'd said that out loud. "No." I said slowly. Jacob rolled his eyes. "Of course you do a little." I leaned forward so I was inches from his face. "I hate that lowlife, masochistic, bloodsucking leech!" My voice raised several octaves. He smiled a bit and happiness filled his gaze. "Finally." He said. "But I didn't know you used such words to describe his family." He added. "Not the family, I don't have a problem with them, I like them, even Rosalie, though she doesn't like me, just him." I growled. He nodded in understanding. I realized at this second, that I loved Jake, more than anything; he was so understanding about everything and I never even gave him a chance. I hit my head with the palm of my hand at my stupidity. Jake looked at me questioningly. "It's nothing, don't worry about it." I smiled sheepishly. I moved closer to him, wrapping my arms around him and burying my face in the crooks of his neck. This moment is kinda perfect. I thought.
After watching the sunset in Jake's arms he pulled me up and we began to walk back to the car. "It's lonely you know," He said glumly. "What?" I said, confused. "Being a wolf, because almost everyone in the pack has an imprint, or a soul-mate, but I don't, and it hurts a bit when they think about their imprints." I nodded. At least fate picks out a partner for them, someone who's perfect. So they can have their happing ending. I smiled at the thought of Sam and Emily; A true example of a perfect couple, together forever.
The rabbit pulled to a stop outside Jacob's house and we jumped out of the car and into the intimidating darkness. I gave Jacob one last hug and waved as I walked over to my truck. Jacob smiled and waved as I drove away. My mind wandered by itself and no matter what I thought about, it always came back to Jacob. When I pulled up at the house, the lights were still on. I opened the door and found that the T.V was still on. When I went to turn it off, I found Charlie; fast asleep on the couch. I smiled and turned the T.V off. I walked quietly upstairs and brought a blanket. I wrapped it around Charlie and put his legs on the couch. He had been sprawled out like an octopus. With a flick, I turned out the lights and headed up the stairs.
After getting into bed, I knew that Jacob would be in my dreams.
Hey anyone who's reading, I hope this is good for a 13 year-old's second fan-fiction. Please review, but no hate messages.
I don't own Twilight. Duh.
