"Edward, you were right. I should have stayed in bed."

Jacob watched in disgust as they hugged and whispered to each other.

"He doesn't deserve her," He muttered under his breath.

Jake wasn't a fan of Edward. He was too perfect, just too perfect, something Jake had always wanted to be. And either way, no matter how much he controlled her, Bella always picked him. Sure, Jake was given an extra thought or two, but in the end, she picked Edward. Always.

"And he's the one who's making her die."

Suddenly angry, Jake went over to the exit.

"Bells, I'm gonna go. See you in a few days."

"Why so fast, Jake?" Bella asked, a frown appearing on her pale face.

"I just…" Jake started, choosing his words carefully. "I just can't stand to be in the same room as him anymore."

He gave Edward an accusing face before leaving the hospital room.

Well, I feel the same way about you, Jacob.

Edward hid his face in Bella's shoulder and sighed. Jacob and I. We're completely different and yet just the same. I tried to kill him. He planned to kill me…

Edward decided that soon, closer to the time that Bella was to cease, he would tell her the truth as to why this was happening to her. He knew she would hate him for it, but it would be worth it. Because then Edward didn't have to live with the regret of not telling her. Then it would be just a little easier for him to move on in life.

"Edward, I think Jake's keeping something from me."

Edward moved back to look at Bella in the eye. She looked sad, on the verge of crying even.

"I hate it, Edward," She continued, whipping the tears away. "I hate how people that I truth always keep secrets from me. Why can't they just tell me? What's holding them back?"

"I don't know, love." He replied. "I guess they just don't want to see your reaction."

"Who cares about my reaction-if someone wants to tell me something they should just tell me!"

I wish I could tell you. I'm just too scared of what you would say.

Jacob was thinking of that as well. As he walked down the parking lot towards his car, he thought of how this might be the only chance of telling her. Sure, maybe his plan didn't dissolve into anything, but Bella still deserved to know.

Because if Edward hadn't landed Bella in the hospital…Jacob would have.
