Jacob's POV
As I tried to comprehend what Edward had just whispered to me, I could practically feel the gob-smacked expression cemented onto my face. Mike Newton... I mean...not the most attractive guy in school, but... wow. I was shocked but completely honoured that somebody - anybody wanted me. I swivelled slowly around in the plastic chair and looked through my long hair at Mike, who was sitting over at another table with a few other guys I didn't recognize. He felt me looking at him, glanced back over at me, his eyes sliding to meet Edward's gorgeous green eyes, then back to my brown eyes again. Looking into those eyes, I thought he was thinking about us together...a couple... Little did I know. If I had known...
3rd person
Jacob, instantly feeling sorry for Mike, stood up out of his chair and walked over to Mike's table.
"Uhhh, hey Mike!" Jake mumbled, brushing his hair in front of his face and adjusting his powder-blue scarf.
"Hey…" Mike said, trying in vain to prompt Jacob for his name.
"Jacob." one of the guys called Gavin at the table whispered into Mike's ear.
"Yeah. Jacob. Uhm, listen, do I know you?"
A flicker of hurt and disappointment danced across Jake's face for a second, but he quickly snapped out of it and said, cheerily " Oh, Mike! You don't need to pretend any more! Edward told me! Anyway, the Prom is coming up soon, isn't it? I don't usually do dancing, me, but I sure would if you were to go with me!
That was the last straw for Mike, having already heard of Jacob's alleged gayness, and he grabbed his bag and folder off the table and ran for the door, his mobile falling out of his jeans pocket as he did so. Jake, being ever-helpful, snatched it off the floor and ran after Mike. As everyone watched Jacob Black chasing yet another boy out the door in one of the scenes that were becoming all too common at Forks High, they just shrugged it off as if it was just another day and went back to their cheese burgers and gossip.
After School, Jacob's bedroom
Jake was sitting on his bed under his purple and blue covers surrounded by posters of bands and singers (mostly male). He had ripped all of his photos of Edward off his walls after he rejected him at school that day. Turning the white walkman mobile phone over in his smooth, moisturised hands, Jacob's mind was blank. After running after Mike in the hall, he hadn't been able to catch up with him to give him his phone back.
"I'll give it to him tomorrow." he resolved. "In the mean-time, there's not much point just having it…" He slid it open and was met by a photo of a girl, no more than 17. She had long, curly brown hair and soft, pretty features. Jake recognized her as a girl from the year below "Izzie - something," he mused to himself. "Moved from Phoenix a while ago. Poor dude, Mike…hasn't come out as gay yet. It's a tough time." He was in a nosey mood, so he started to look through Mike's phone. Soon he came to 'M' in the contacts list. "Me…" he thought as he looked for Mike's number under 'Me'. A number came up on the screen and Jake jumped off the bed and rummaged in his drawers for paper and a pen to write down Mike's number. He stopped when he came to an old photo of himself and Edward in the basketball team that he had cut out of an old yearbook. "I must've missed it in the big 'clear out'" he thought, reminiscing about those old days. He put it back gently and blew it a kiss. "Those days are gone now. Goodbye, old me." he whispered to himself as he found paper and wrote down the number. Crouched on the wooden floor, where he was, he began to sob softly.
