I didn't get any song suggestions from the last chapter :/ I'm running out of songs to pick from here.
Anyway, new chapter is up! Thanks to Eric-thePerfectViking1000 for providing the song for this chapter.
And it might be a little confusing, because this chapter is in Seth POV, but bear with me.
Think of You Later
Seth POV
It's time to let it go
My life is fairly good right now, well, if you compare it to my past, then my life is fucking awesome. I have my sweet and sensitive boyfriend, who just got to move in with me. I can't be sure of it, but I think Leah's really mad about Jake moving in, she's been on edge lately. It's starting to freak me out; it kinda reminds me of when she used to not talk to me. It was when she was a teenager and I was two years younger, now we trust each other, and we're best friends. I remember I was so relieved that I was accepted as gay to anyone, even my sister. It was good she did because none of the guys from the rez liked it; I even had to transfer schools, so now I go to Forks High.
Luckily it's the summer though, so I can have all the time in the world to spend with Jake. I think he's sleeping in the guest room right now, well, his room. He's been sad since he got kicked out, and I need to help him.
I silently crept over to his side and knelt down. His beautiful face was just inches from my own. It was perfect, apart from the worry line on his forehead. It never smoothed out, even in his sleep. I hope his dreams aren't painful.
I slowly kissed the worry line, just pressing my lips lightly to it, in hopes that it would disappear. But, no such luck, I was going to have to try harder. I dragged my mouth from the middle of his forehead and down the side of his face. Then I went back up again. I heard his heart pick up pace and smiled against his russet skin. His breathing started becoming erratic, though he hadn't yet opened his eyes. I continued making the circuit around his face until his eyes fluttered open, I stopped at his ear. "Well good morning to you sleepy." I made the circuit one more time before pausing at his slightly parted mouth. I took his top lip in between my own and sucked lightly on it. I pulled away and he whimpered at the loss. I smirked smugly and kissed him normally. I felt him smile against my lips as I pulled away.
"Well that's a nice way to wake up." He smiled and chuckled at the same time, it was reserved though. I'm not sure what I can do to distract him though.
I put my pointer finger on his chest. "You mister, should go get some breakfast while I take a shower, I know how hungry you get." He blushed furiously and looked away. I caught his chin with my hand and turned his head back to face me. "I told you I loved that blush; don't ever turn away from me." I kissed the tip of his nose and happily walked off into the bathroom.
As I showered I thought of Jake, and I worried about Jake. Ever since his dad kicked him out he's been down in the dumps, that's why I made him his favorite breakfast this morning. I towel-dried my hair when I was done, then I just shook it out. I know Jake likes it better this way anyway.
I had just put on my shorts when I heard a muffled cry coming from the kitchen that sounded an awful lot like Jake. I ran in and was baffled by the sight in front of me.
The world's got a funny way of turning round on you
When a friend tried to stab you right in the face
I saw Leah, that's right, my sister Leah. With her leg wrapped around Jakes waist, while her face was attached to my boyfriend's face. Jake was backed up into the cabinet with his arms on Leah's shoulders, I can't be sure, but I think he was trying to push her off. "What the hell Leah!" I ran over to them and yanked her off of him. However, I underestimated my strength and sent Leah crashing onto the floor. Jacob just looked at me with wide eyes. "What. Happened?" I spoke the words through my teeth because I was seething with rage.
Losing faith in everything I thought I hoped I knew
Don't sweat it, set on false pretense
Jake opened his mouth but didn't say anything, his eyes were locked on my own and I could see the desperation in them. But the question is why? Why did he have desperation in his eyes? Was it because he was trying to tell me that Leah just kissed him and he was trying to get her off? Or was it that he and she were kissing and he's desperate to come up with a logical explanation for this? Pick either one, they're both bad.
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, but you're not gonna be willing to change
Ca-ca-ca-cause you know
I turned to Leah glaring at me furiously from her spot on the linoleum kitchen floor. "We were a little busy Seth." She hissed her words at me. Well two could play that game.
"Yeah I noticed, but I guess you didn't notice that Jacob's my boyfriend, I don't think you could turn him straight. Hell, you can't even turn a bent pipe cleaner straight" She was fuming; I wouldn't be surprised if her hair suddenly caught on fire.
It's sacrifice
False pretense, you'll learn again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll learn again
She was on her feet and storming towards me. "Well we were kissing, so how do you explain that?" Wow, I never knew Leah could be such a bitch.
I turned to face Jake, hopefully to see his reassuring eyes, only to see the bright blue wooden cabinet. "Jake?" I listened carefully, but I couldn't hear anything.
"Don't you go looking for him Seth! Jacob Black is mine, and you stole him from me, so now I'm stealing him back!" She pulled me back with a hand on my shoulder. I really wanted to retaliate with a right hook to the face, but she was my sister, so I couldn't.
Instead I settled for making her sad and depressed. "You know Leah; I know you couldn't turn Jake straight, because he would never put up with a bitch like you." Her feral sneer quivered a little bit and I saw her eyes water, it wasn't hard to get Leah to cry. I just walked away to a quieter part of the house, my room. I hope to find Jake in there.
I couldn't help but notice that Jake's door was cracked open; I could see a sliver of light. I pushed it open all the way to find Jake at his dresser throwing all his clothes into his suitcase. "What are you doing?" I ran over to him and grabbed his wrists, using the angle to pull him around to face me. His tear-streaked face was enough to make my heart split in two, but his expression was of fear and agony. "Jake? Oh my god are you okay?" He just continued to stare at me, the tears were still running, his mouth was set into a hard line now. But his lips were pushed together strangely, almost as if he was holding in a total breakdown. I gently pulled him over to the bed and forced him to sit down. "Jake?" I cupped my hand on his cheek and he looked away again while turning his face.
I don't think he could take it anymore. Because first his chest started shaking, heaving with heavy sobs. There were small noises coming out of his mouth, a sort of cry-whimper. He pulled his feet up on the bed and wrapped his arms around his legs. He started to rock back and forth. He was so big, but he looked like a child. He started sputtering out words, what sounded like an apology. "I-I'm so sor-r-ry. I couldn't p-p-push her off-f. Its a-a-a-all my fault. Sh-sh-she came on to m-m-e." He continued rocking back and forth; it was the single saddest thing I've ever seen in my life.
I reached over and pulled him into my chest. I rubbed his shoulders with my hands and tried to calm him down. "Shh Jake, it's okay. I understand. You don't have to leave, and it's not your fault, it's Leah's. Don't let this upset you so much, it hurts me to see you like this." Eventually he calmed down enough to talk correctly.
"You mean you're not mad at me?" He looked up at me through his soaked eyelashes.
"Of course not." I kissed the top of his head. "Though I'm pretty pissed at Leah right now." He chuckled at me.
"Yeah well I'm not so thrilled at her either, she almost broke us up. Did she tell you why she kissed me?" He looked as if he actually didn't know, his head cocked to the side and his right eyebrow rose.
"She told me that I stole you from her." Jake snorted. "And she said she was stealing you back." We broke out into fits of laughter. We were still laughing as we walked into the living room with Jake's iPod.
Leah was sitting there, and her face brightened when she saw us. "Hey Jake. So did you two break up so we can go out?" Um wow, she was crazy. We both laughed even harder when we heard her say this.
"Here Leah." I managed to choke out a couple words in between my fits of giggles. "Press play." I threw Jake's iPod at her, Jake gasped, but I knew she would catch it. I saw her put the ear buds in her ears and then press play. It was so hilarious to watch her listen to the song, because her face got more scrunched up and red the longer it went on.
All along you know you thought you got the best of me
You were wrong and I'm laughing right in your face
I cannot believe you, when you were my family
Don't sweat it, set on false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, but you're not gonna be willing to change
Ca-ca-ca-cause you know
And Sacrifice
False pretense, you'll learn again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll learn again
It's time to let it go
I can't seem to understand it
How you've turned out to be so cold
You tried but you were caught red-handed
Are you happy with your role
It's funny to me how you've turned into such a joke
And sacrifice
False pretense, you'll learn again
Stop pretending; don't deny
False pretense you'll learn again
So play the game until you run out
And play the game into my hand
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, but you're not gonna be willing to change
Ca-ca-ca-cause you know
She was in tears when the song stopped, good. She deserved it. She ran and stumbled past me and Jake, plopping the iPod in my hands as she ran past. I heard a door slam and assumed it was her room. I spun around to look at Jake; my smile was evident on my face. He looked confused. "Just curious, but what song did you make her listen to?"
"Nothing you need to worry about dear." I grinned at him. "Now I think you need a proper distraction." I made sure to breathe in his face when I said "distraction". He swayed a little, but I steadied him and kissed him deeply and passionately.
"Wow." He still looked light-headed, so I was prepared should he fall.
"Now what were you worried about again?"
Please Review!
And while you're at it, I really need more song suggestions!
