A/N: YAY CHAPTER 3!! R&R PEOPLES

Chapter 3

Jacob Black.

I rushed home as fast as I could, and this time I drove. Speeding faster than Lindsey could I made my way down the forest lined roads with Lindsey in protest the whole way.

"Bella, whats going on?" she asked.

"None of your business," I snapped back. Worry must have lined my face as the craziest ideas formed in my mind.

"It is my business! You look scared!"

"I'm not... scared," I tried to convince her as a vivid image of Edward setting himself on fire appeared in my mind. No... he wouldn't do that.

"Sure you aren't," she grumbled as I pulled up to the house. Before Lindsey could even add another comments, I tore out of the care and into the house, stopping short at the couch where Jacob was still sitting.

"Bella? Whats wrong?" He asked looking up into my worried face.

I thrust the letter into his large hands and watched as he read it. His face went from a tanned beige to white. His eyes wide as he looked up at me. "Bella, don't go."

"I have to..." I replied wishing I could just act like this letter didn't exist.

"It destroyed you when he left the first time, then when you left. Now he's doesn't something stupid and it's just to get your attention!" Jacob hollered, with Josee and Lindsey watching this exchange.

"What if he's actually hurt? What if something happened? What if they're all in danger?!"

"What if this time your in danger?!"

"I MAY BE! BUT THEY'RE MY FAMILY!" I screamed back, and only silence remained.

Jacobs stare was hard and cold, and every word that came from him stung, "They're your family? Really, because a family leaves you to rot. They know your in danger and they don't come to help arrive out of no where expecting your forgiveness, and not even all of them, and then they don't talk to you for 4 years, until they need your help? Yeah Bella, they really sound like a family to me."

"Jacob... thats not fair," I pleaded.

"No Bella, it's not. You want to know what else is not fair? You dissapearing out of nowhere for years leaving everyone worried, and me searching. Then when you come back I stuck by your side only to have you up an leave again. So I go and follow you, anywhere you go. I care about you, and comfort you, and evern after everything you leave me out hanging to dry to go run back to your "beloved vampire.""

"Jacob we talked about this. You said you were fine with us not being together."

"Clearly I am," he shot. "Go run to your vampire Bella, because unlike cirtain peo... things... i'll still be here waiting."

I glared at him hard and walked up to my room, closing the room door softly and walked to my closet. As I searched for evening gowns, I could hear the others talking downstairs.

"What was that about?" Lindsey asked.

"Im not sure. The note says something about a guy named Edward," Josee replied.

"The same guy from the text message?" Lindsey added.

"There was a text message too?" I heard Jacob say.

"Yeah... Bella was really upset in the car earlier. And even more on the way back. She looked really scared," Lindsey continued.

"Scared?" Jacob asked.

"Jake... whats going on?... Jake?" Josee called to him, and I could hear footsteps making their way up the stairs to right in front of my door. Without knocking Jake walked inside.

"Bella..." he started.

I turned around to find him not even a foot from me, "What do you want?"

"Look, i'm sorry," Jacob appologized, placing his hands on my hips.

I looked at his hands briefly and back up to his face. "I'm going Jacob. And you can't stop me," I said defiantly.

"I know," was all he managed as he wrapped his arms around me in a big hug. "I'm driving you though. I don't want you to leave again. I don't want to lose you again."

All I could do was nod. I couldn't refuse his one request, because as much as I didn't want to admit it...

I didn't want to leave, and I didn't want to lose him.
