Edward couldn't help but frown at the work in front of him, he was tired and his brain wasnt working, it didn't help everyone in school was staring at him. Turns out his secret wasn't a secret at all. Which had its advantages...and disadvantages.
No one would leave him be, the school were hurrying around to assign him counsellors he didn't want, he had his family to talk to. He had Jacob to talk to. He didn't need some stuck up bastard telling him that it would all be ok.
He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket and sighs to look at the text, 'Outside. Now.' Was all it said. He grins and asks if he could use the bathroom, his teacher agrees and he walks out, chucking the slip in the bin as he passed one. He wasn't planning on going back in there whatever was outside waiting.
But Edward was pleased at what he found, Jacob leaning against a motorcycle in a sexy leather jacket. He got turned on easily... "Thought you needed a handsome prince."
Edward grins, "Handsome?" Jake glares playfully, Edward could tell the only thing Jake wanted to do was kiss him, but he was unsure as he was in a school. Where everyone would most likely be staring at them out of the window.
They knew his other secrets, why not add another to the list? Edward kisses him, pushing him against the cool metal of the bike. In response Jake moans, pulling him closer in his warm arms. Deepening the kiss. But he pulls away, "Come on...I need to show you something." It sounded serious so Edward nods and gets on the bike, Jake starts the engine and Edward wraps his arms around his muscled torso. Holding on for dear life.
Jacob drove him and Edward into the forest, not too far away from a main trail or road if Edward wanted to run. Which, sadly, Jacob thought would be a likely outcome to what he was about to do. But it had to be done.
"Why are we in the middle of the forest?" Edward asked, his green eyes looked around worried as he got off the bike.
"Umm...I have to...show you something." He said as he too got off the bike, resting it against a tree. "Ok...this is going to be absolutely...mental. But I have to explain to you what I am."
Edward stood confused, really confused, "Ok? Why this had to be done in the middle of a freezing forest I have no idea. But ok." An image of Edward leaning against Jacob's wolf form came to mind. Like it would happen, he would run screaming and he would never see him again.
That fact killed Jacob.
"You aren't the only thing out there...basically, there aren't only humans around."
"What?"
"There are other...creatures."
"You've dragged me in the middle of a forest to tell me about conspiracy theories!" he yells a little annoyed, hugging himself slightly against the cold.
"They aren't therioes...they are fact."
Edward shakes his head with a frown, he opened his mouth to speak but Jacob stripping stopped him. "Jacob...what are you doing?"
"You need to see. I've imprinted on you Edward. It's basically wolf speak for a soul mate."
"Wolf speak? Have you taken something! Drugs? Magic mushrooms? Are you drunk?"
"I wish I was." He murmured as he takes her final item of clothing off. "You might want to stand back." He says louder before phasing into his wolf form, a large russet brown wolf.
Edward jumps back, falling onto the forest floor, Jacob stays back, giving him some space. "What!" He yells, he hadn't legged it, probably too shocked. He was breathing too quickly. He was shaking. What if he had a heart attack? "Jake, that's really you? Your a werewolf!" Jacob nods, still keeping his distance. Edward nods remaining silent.
Then...
"Do you mind if I stroke your fur?"
Alice groans, putting her head in her hands, Edward ran from school. With help from Jacob Balck, she couldn't help but cringe at that, the image of the two boys filling her mind. She quickly tries to replace it. "You ok Alice?" Jazz asked, sitting next to her. He didn't know she read the letter, for all he knew it had fallen under her bed. Never read.
"Edward."
He frowned, "He'll be fine! He's just going through a rough time right now." He says with a small smile, trying to make her happy.
She leans forward, pressing her lips to his, he freezes completely and just stairs as she pulls away, "Alice..."
"I read the letter...I was shocked so I didn't say. Truth is, it's the same for me." She smiles then at his silly shocked face.
"Really?"
"Really."
Then he is kissing her again.
Edward now sat across from Jake, picking at the grass at his feet, "I have a problem..." H mutters, Jacob didn't look at all suprised. "I'm dead if I go home."
Now that suprised him, "What?"
"I ran from school. Esme will kill me."
He chuckles in response, "I think I can handle that."
Edward couldn't help but laugh, yes he was a little shaken from the whole 'your in love with a werewolf' thing. But it was sinking in. "You can't kill my mo-" Edward freezes at what he was about to say,he was about to call Esme mother. He swallows and starts again, "You can't kill Esme."
"I wasn't suggesting that! Stay at my house, I'll drop you home tomorrow morning. Just stay at mine until it blows over." Edward really liked that idea. "Word of warning, my dad is going to be embarrassing. It will be 20 questions all night."
Edward laughs, "I don't mind."
Jacob could feel Edward's exhaustion. He hasn't had a good few days, so that was understandable. They get off the bike and he pushes it inside his garage, avoiding to look at the incomplete Rabbitt, he had been neglecting his project. He goes back outside to a nervous looking Edward, he grins and takes his hand, squeezing it tightly.
They go around to the front of the house and he sees Charlie's police cruiser, "Is it normal for Cheif Swan to be round your house?" Edward asks.
"Yeah, my dad and him are friends." Jacob mutters and they continue into the house, the conversation inside was serious, with Jacob having extra good hearing he could hear well before Edward could.
"Would you have any idea where they are?" A voice asks Jacob didnt recognise.
It was his farther who answered, "I don't know." He hears the other two men, Charlie included, sigh annoyed. Jacob goes into the room, Edward trailing behind him as the voices went quiet.
He now knew the three men inside. His dad, in his wheelchair looking incredibly angry at him, though his eyes go slightly sympathetic at Edward behind him. Charlie, far from the family friend, he looked serious. Oh, and Dr Carlisle Cullen, Edward's foster father. Edward might have just been a little wrong on what he said earleir.
It isn't mama bear they had to worry about, as papa bear had a very aggressive bite. Considering he was almost killing them with his glare.
He heard Edward actually whimper beside him. Jacob fought the urge to push him behind him and run. They wouldn't kill them. They wouldn't kill them. They wouldn't...
Their faces told him otherwise.
