Bella's New Life

CHAPTER 2

Jake and I got to the beach in no time. For Forks it was actually a nice day today. Jacob told me that we needed to talk. I asked myself what is he thinking as we walked over to our tree to sit down.

Jake said "Bella I have been thinking about you and me quite a bit lately. I want you to know how important you are to me". I started to talk when he put his finger to my lips telling me "wait let me finish Bells. I know when he left he hurt you and hurt bad but Bella I could never, would never hurt you. Do you know that?" "Of course I do Jake you mean the world to me".

I saw a smile come across his face, god how I love that smile. As he smiled I sat quietly thinking that maybe just maybe I should tell him about my epiphany. But the thing is, am I ready to do this again to give my heart to Jacob. Then as I came back from my reverie I saw Jake looking at me with the sweetest smile as he asked me" Bells tell me what you are thinking, please." I thought to myself well here goes nothing. I cannot let him run my life if I don't move on then he won. "Jake I don't know where to begin." "Begin with what Bells?" "Well Jake I have been coming down to LaPush these past few weeks and I can't remember the last time I was so happy." That's good" Jake said. "I am glad you enjoy coming here I love spending time with you Bells." As to mimic his action from earlier I put my finger to his lips and said "Shhh". I had to get this out before I lost the courage. So I looked Jacob in the eyes and said "Jake I Love You! In fact I think I have loved you for a while now but didn't realize it or I was too scared to admit not sure which but I know I love you now." As I said this I saw a gleam in his eye he was my Jacob when he looked like this. "Do you mean it Bella really you love me?" "Of course Jake I love you with every ounce of my being." Well that was shock I didn't know I was so sure of myself. Maybe I have just been keeping this bottled up for a while now and I just needed to dig for it. But now that feelings were out, there is only one fear that I have left. But could I tell him?

"Bella does this mean you want to be with me?" "Well of course dummy what did you think it meant" I said with a smirk. Jake stood up from where he was sitting and jumped up and said "Geez Bella you have made me so happy I could just scream" I laughed it made me happy to see him so happy. And that's what we both deserve happiness. I can't believe I did it, I told Jake how I felt.

Jake reached down for my hand and pulled me up and asked me "Bella can you hear that?" "What Jake I don't hear anything except the sound of the waves" He whispered in my ear "the music Bella the music of my heart." I smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek. He took my hand as we started to dance. This was the perfect moment he was twirling me around like he was Fred Astaire and I was Ginger Rodgers. The moment was absolutely perfect until me being the Bella I am and tripped over my own two feet and fell to the sand and brought Jake with me. We just lay their laughing for the longest time. And then it happed Jake looked into my eyes and I looked into his. He reached up and tucked my hair behind my ear and whispered to me" Bella you are beautiful my love. Then he inched in and kissed me. It was like the earth was frozen and at that moment only the two of us existed. It was an awakening; his lips were so warm and soft as our lips moved in unison I knew I had done the right thing by telling him how I felt. He slowly inched away from me and smiled and leaned in to kiss me again. This was nice I could get used to this. At that moment I felt like the luckiest person ever.

Then I heard it. I heard the hollering coming from down the beach. "That a boy Jake." "You go Jake!" Jake growled when he saw Quil and Embry walking towards us on the beach. How much had they seen? I blushed as I thought about them watching us. Jake got up and helped me up. Jake asked "So what are guys doing here? Aren't you supposed to be on patrol?" Embry told Jake "well we were but then we saw you on the beach and decided to say hey." Quil winked at me and gave me a big smile and I smiled back, all the while blushing. Embry came up to me and gave me a hug and said "So Bells you finally decide to give Jake a chance to prove himself huh?" I saw Jake glare at Embry. Then Embry told us that they better get back to work before Sam found out and that he would see us later.

Jacob looked back at me and told me "sorry about that." I told him "it's Ok Jake really, he is right." Jake said it was getting late and we should get me home so we walked back to Jacob's house hand in hand. Before I left Jacob leaned in the cab of my truck and kissed me goodbye and told me to call him later tonight so we could plan a proper date where we could be alone. I told him "Ok talk to you later." Then I pulled out onto the highway and headed for home.
