Chapter 2 The Fight
Jacob POV
I woke up at what I thought was the crack of dawn. I realized that someone was next to me. I glanced down. It was Nessie. 'oh my fucking god!' I thought to myself. What the hell did I just do. I wondered what time it was. Shit, me and Nessie just spent the night together. Edward was going to kill me. I didn't want to wake Nessie though. She looked so peaceful there sleeping beside me. God it felt so nice. I couldn't wait until the day that she could sleep next to me everyday. I sighed, I better wake her.
"Nessie love." I whispered as I rubbed her back gently. She stirred slightly. "hmmm?" she murmured. "Nessie you need to wake up."
She opened her eyes and looked up at me and smile. "Morning Jacob." She muttered. Her eyes went wide all of a sudden. She sat up fast and then fell back down. "Sat up to fast." She said as she shook her head. "Daddy's going to be so mad." I nodded my head. "Best get you home before they go into your room and find out your not in there." I said.
We stood up, and I picked Nessie up in my arms, and I sprinted back to the house as fast I could. I stopped when I came to the driveway. "I better not go in with you." "No, Jake. I'm scared. Please come." I sighed. "Alright I'll go in with you."
We opened the door. I looked inside. Nobody was there. Thank god. We tiptoed inside and went to head up the stairs.
"Jacob Black!!" someone screamed. It was Edward. "Where the hell have you been, with my daughter!" he yelled.
"Daddy please don't yell at Jacob. It wasn't his fault." Nessie said. "Like hell it isn't his fault!" Bella came in the room just then.
"Edward honey there's no need for the language. Where were you young lady!"
I glanced at Nessie.
"Mama please, nothing happened. We just lost track of time and fell asleep."
"My butt!" Edward shouted. "Jacob Black what did you do to my daughter!! If you so much as layed a finger on her so help me god I will..."
"Edward love relax." Bella interrupted.
I could tell Nessie was on the verge of tears so I cut in. "Edward, Bella relax. I'm telling you nothing happened. We went for a long walk and we lost track of time. Nessie was telling you the truth. Please don't yell at her.
"You're lying Jacob." Edward growled. "I can hear your thoughts. You're just trying to protect her. Well sorry to burst your bubble mister but it's not working." Edward looked furious. "Go upstairs to your room young lady. Now!" he shouted.
"Daddy I'm not a child anymore." Nessie cried. "You're my child and you do as I tell you. Upstairs now!" Nessie ran up the stairs crying.
"I'm sorry Edward I didn't mean to keep her out so late. Punish me not her." I didn't want Nessie to get into anymore trouble. "You're damn right I'm going to punish you." "Get out of my house mutt!" he screamed.
I didn't want to hear anymore. I ran out the door and to my car. I chanced a peak at Nessie's window hoping she was looking out. She was. I looked into her eyes trying to tell her how sorry I was. I don't know if she saw me. Her face was strewn with tears. I jumped into my rabbit and zoomed out of the driveway.
Nessie POV
I looked out my bedroom window as Jacob sped off, and wept. I heard angry voices coming from downstairs. It sounded like mama was trying to calm daddy down. Ugh daddy was being so unfair. We didn't do anything. I wish he could see that. There was a pounding at my door that scared me half to death. I jumped up and ran to answer it.
"Nessie open this door!" daddy shouted. "I'm coming daddy chill!" I yelled as I opened the door. "Don't speak to me like that young lady." Mama placed a hand on daddy's shoulder. "Honey remember what we discussed downstairs. Daddy frowned. "I remember, but I don't like it one bit. Just because you're an engaged woman now does not mean you can go run off with your fiancé. You live under my roof. You follow my rules." "Daddy please, can't you just read my mind already and see that we didn't do anything." I told him.
Which was true, we didn't do anything, except kiss and fall asleep under the stars.
"Okay fine I believe you didn't do anything. But that doesn't mean that you can still run off whenever you feel like it. The next time you want to go somewhere at least tell us." He said quietly. "I'm so sorry daddy. I didn't mean to upset you." I sobbed into my hands.
Daddy sighed and walked over to me and gave me a small hug. "It's okay honey, just please don't make us worry like that again. We didn't know where you were and Alice couldn't see you cause of Jake of course.""Yes daddy, I promise I'll tell you next time." "Good girl." He said as he patted my shoulder and walked out of my room.
Mama lingered and gave me a sympathetic smile, and mouthed sorry to me. She turned and followed daddy out of the room.
Jacob POV
I waited by the phone. I was trying to decide whether or not to call Nessie. Would Edward the leach still be shouting at her? I had to talk to her, to find out how she was doing. It hurt me to leave her like that, with the tears strewn across her face. I wish I could be by her side to wipe them all away.
I picked up the phone and dialed Nessie's cell phone number. "Hello?" she whispered. Her voice was hoarse. "Nessie are you okay?" I asked. There was a pause. "I'm fine." She croaked. "Nessie I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for you to get in trouble." "Its fine Jacob relax. Daddy's not mad at me anymore. Though he did get a good amount of yelling in at me." Shit I thought. Edward was going to pay for that one. I was not going to have anyone hurting my Nessie, even if it meant hurting her dad. "Can I see you?" I asked hopefully. "Jacob I'm not sure that's such a good idea right now." She hesitated. "Maybe we should back off and give daddy a few days to cool off."
What was she thinking? Making me stay away from her? Oh the blood sucker was going to pay for that for sure. "Nessie I don't really care what anyone thinks or says. I can't stay away from you. You know what it does to me." I reminded her. "Jake I know. I'll go talk to daddy and see if he'll let me see you. Even if it's only for a few minutes." "Okay love," I said "hurry please." "I will Jake. Love you." She said. "Love you too honey."
The other line clicked off and the dial tone buzzed in my ear. I sighed. Thank god she was okay. I slammed the phone back on the receiver and waited for Nessie to call back. God I was so impatient. I got up from my seat and started pacing back and forth. Three minutes later the phone ring. I jumped and ran to answer it.
"Hello." I breathed. "Jake!" Nessie exclaimed. "Nessie." I answered. "Daddy said it was okay for me to come over." Wow that is surprising. I thought to myself. "That's great Nessie." "I'm going to be over there in ten minutes." She assured me. "Of course, that's fine." I said nearly jumping up and down with joy. "Bye Nessie!" I shouted and hung up the phone before she could respond.
"Whoohoo!" I shouted loudly. "What is it? What's going on? Asked my sister Rachel coming into the room. I hadn't realized anyone was home. "Er nothing." "Come on Jake, you don't whoop for nothing." "Alright alright." I started. "Nessie's coming over." She smiled a slightly evil grin. "Awe my little brother's got a girlfriend. OOOHHH." She teased. "Shut up Rachel." I said angrily. "You know what it's like. "You've got Paul." She nodded her head. "You're right. I'm sorry I teased you." "That's okay.
" Guess what Rach?" I asked her. "What?" she wondered. "Ness and I are going to get married. We're engaged!" I said jumping up and down excitedly. "Wow! Congratulations little brother." She said as she came to give me a hug. "That's so wonderful. Just wait till I tell Paul." "No!" I growled, making her jump. "Sorry, but please don't tell anyone yet. We're waiting for awhile." She nodded her head. "Of course Jacob. Well, I'm going over to Pauls." She smiled. "Rach!" I yelled at her. "I mean it not a single word." "Alright alright. Relax bro." 'Good.' I thought. Now that we've got that cleared up.
As soon as Rachel left the doorbell rang. I opened the door. It was Nessie. Her clothes were changed. Instead of the gorgeous black dress she was wearing earlier she was now in dark denim pants and a red cotton shirt. That color red looked so beautiful on her. She smiled as she saw me "Jake!" she exclaimed as she threw her arms around me kissing my neck.
"Nessie baby, are you okay?" I asked she nodded. Her eyes were red as though she hadn't stopped crying since I left. "I'm fine Jake thanks for asking." "Please come in." I gestured to the sitting room.
"What happened after I left?" I asked curiously. "Well daddy shouted at me for awhile. But right after you left he and mama had a talk and apparently discussed some things with daddy." "I'm sorry he yelled at you. That stupid leach!" I spat. "Jacob please." She started to say. "I think he's sorry for yelling at me. I could tell by the way he looked when I asked him if I could come over." "but still he yelled at you Nessie." I cut in. "And I don't care who yelled at you they're gonna pay." "Jacob No!" Nessie shouted. "Please don't. I don't want daddy to be mad at you and make me break our engagement." She cried. I nodded my head. "Okay honey. For you I'll try and behave." "thank you." She replied kissing my throat all the way to my lips.
