Author's Note: I first of all want to let you all know how sorry I am for being slow with this chapter. Chapter 4 has taken a lot of work, and as I am not 100% satisfied with it, I must move on with this story. Second of all, I just got done with having a lead role in my winter musical at school, and the rehearsals slowed my writing schedule down. I hope you are all doing great, and all is well. I love being able to hear from each and every one of you through emails and your reviews. Don't hesitate to ask me a question by private messaging me. I will answer back to anything you might wanna know. I get on daily. Also if you would like to know some hints about a current chapter I am writing, follow me on Twitter: TyRaWr27 is my username.

This chapter may get confusing at times, but it leaves you with an open mind. Edward may also start to make you wander how he truly feels for Jacob Black.

I hope you enjoy it, as much as I have. Developing this interesting chapter, will lead to more interesting things in the future.

The rain had stopped, as the sun had set some hours ago. The Cullen house was lit brightly, but no movement seemed to be made throughout the house. Rosalie and Emmett stayed in their rooms, as did Alice and Jasper. Esme knocked on the door leading to Carlisle's office. With her, she held a bowl of ice water in one hand and an envelope in the other.

"Come in." Carlisle whispered to low for a human to hear.

Esme pushed the door open, greeted with the sound of a steady beeping. A large hospital bed was centered in the middle of the room. Jacob's comatose body lay upon the bed with heart patches covering his bare chest. The boy looked frail and weak, but things had changed. Physical things about the boy were different.

Jacob's rib cage had been picked up, exposing large, muscular pecs. His ribs receded behind an eight-pack of abs, also increasing his biceps. The boy had changed a lot, losing his baby face and being replaced by a much younger-looking, clean cut man.

Edward was standing next to the bed, his back turned to Jacob. As always it was raining outside, and Edward studied the watery landscape as he stared out the window. His face, paler than usual, was distraught with confusion. Esme closed the door quietly and walked over to her son.

"Edward. I brought a new bowl of ice water." Esme said, handing the bowl to her son. "Has his temperature dropped at all?"

Edward's eyes gleamed with guilt and sadness.

"No, it's still one hundred thirteen." He grabbed the sponge from the old bowl, and dipped it in the fresh water.

Carlisle walked up to the other side of the bed, glancing at his wife.

"I haven't found anything new. There is nothing listed under his condition." Carlisle spoke quietly. "In all my years, I have never seen anything like this."

Edward wiped the ice cold sponge across Jake's forehead, trying to cool the boy.

"Carlisle, I must know what's going on. My venom, what did it do?" Edward demanded.

"Son, I wish I had answers, but at this time, there is not much I can say until Jake wakes up." Carlisle sighed. "The venom apparently has boosted or changed his DNA. I've never seen it physically change someone like this, especially a wolf."

"Are you saying its possible he could be a vampire?" Esme questioned.

"It's not possible to fully change someone from a wolf to a vampire. It's never been heard of."

Edward looked at the boy. "Is it possible to be both, Carlisle?"

"Are you suggesting a hybrid, Edward?" Esme gasped.

Carlisle's eyes grew with anticipation, but quickly returned to their tired state.

"It has never really been heard of…but…" Carlisle turned towards his desk, which contained many books from past centuries. "There has to be something in these books, I just don't understand…"

Edward nodded, a little preoccupied, staring at the comatose boy. "What do I say when he wakes up?

"Keep it on the down low. I sent a letter to the pack a few days ago, explaining what is going on."

"And they replied." Esme said, handing Carlisle the envelope.

"Just tell him the pack is aware what is going on, but he is to stay here until we gather more information."

Carlisle opened the piece of parchment, glancing threw it.

Esme sensed a discomfort from her mate and grabbed Carlisle's hand. "How about you take a break for a little while? You and I can go for a quick hunt."

Glancing at his son, Carlisle nodded. "Call me if anything changes."

"I will." Edward answered following his father and mother, closing the door behind them.

Edward turned around to look at the boy. He was so beautiful. Whatever his venom did, the boy went from cute to hot in a matter of days. What was he going to do with the boy? Edward knew he had to tell him how he felt. He liked Jacob for a while now, but with Bella in his life, he seemed content with what he had. Truthfully, Edward had been hiding his identity all these years. He felt alone. No man ever wanted him. He was a monster. The Cullen clan was the only family he had truly been accepted by. His sister Alice adored him. Emmet and Jasper accepted him. Even Rosalie accepted him; of course she doesn't care about anybody but herself. Esme and Carlisle were proud to take him in as their own.

Edward leaned against the door in anticipation for the boy to wake. He'd stand there for a lifetime, just to watch over the boy. Protect him. Although Edward may have turned Jake away for his allegation of imprinting, he was surely going to make up for it. He couldn't let Jake get away. It was time for him to be a man and confess his feelings, to Jacob. The heart monitor began to speed up; the beeping becoming more rapid. Edward rushed to the side of the bed, placing his hand on the boy's arm.

"Jacob?" Edward questioned. "Jake…it's Edward."

Jacob groaned as his eyes shot open. The heart monitor was now beeping rapidly. Jacob gasped for air breathing deeply as he jumped up in fear. Edward grabbed Jake's face with his hands, forcing him to look into the vampire's eyes.

"Jacob! Look at me!"

"No! He right behind me! He's going to kill me!" Jacob yelled.

"Nobody is going to hurt you Jake. I'm here. It's okay. It was just a dream." Edward pulled the boy into his arms, softly cooing him.

After a few minutes had passed, the heart monitor slowed and Jake's breathing had softened. Edward could feel the heat radiating from the boy's body. Jake was so warm and gentle. He didn't want to let go.

Jake slowly pulled back to look into Edward's eyes. Edward held back a gasp as he peered into the wolf's eyes. Black iris's rimmed the eye, as a starburst of orange-yellow radiated from the pupil. They were beautiful. Beyond anything he had ever seen.

"Sorry." Jake heaved, reaching for the heart patches. With a quick pull, Jacob ripped the patches off his chest, attempting to jump up.

Edward placed his hand on the boy's chest, holding him down.

"Jake you're not well enough to be going anywhere. You need to lie back down."

Jake glanced at the pale hand on his bare chest. His face turned a pink shade, but quickly faded.

"Look, I don't want to cause any trouble. I let you feed from me, like you would any other animal. So now I'll be on my way." Jake spat, swinging his feet off the side of the bed.

"Jacob." Edward said sternly, grabbing Jake's arm. "We need to talk."

Jake looked at Edward. The vampire's face looked stressed, but longed for answers.

"What?" Jake smirked. "Did I hurt your feelings?" Jake looked to his left. Starring back at him was a monster. It was him. His abs were chiseled into a nice eight pack, leading to muscular pecs. Jake's luminous eyes stared back at him. His lips trembled with confusion.

"Edward? What…what is going on?" Jake stood up, but quickly losing feeling in his legs.

Edward put his arm around Jacob's waist, holding him up. "That's what we need to talk about." He sighed, setting Jake on the bed.

"Look Jake. When I bit you…well, my venom."

Jake's mouth dropped open. "I'm a vampire?"

Edward chucked, blushing. "No. Well really, we don't know. Carlisle has looked into things, but we've never seen anything like this."

"I'm a freak." Jake groaned.

"No your not. So far all my venom did was pump you up a bit." Edward smiled, gesturing to his chest.

Jake slowly stood, and took a step away from Edward. "I have to tell the pack."

"Carlisle has already reached them. They want you to stay here for a while. At least until we get things figured out." Edward told the boy.

Jake turned away from Edward. "Look, I'm sorry I am such a burden. I am sorry I ever bothered you. And I'm sorry I imprinted!" Jake growled, slamming his fist into Carlisle's desk. The desk creaked, crumbling into a heap of pieces under the wrath of Jake's fist.

"Don't be sorry for imprinting." Edward said protectively. "Jacob. I know leaving you in the woods that day was wrong, and I know you'll never forgive me, but I want you to know that I just needed time to think."

"A vampire thinking?" Jake growled. "That's new."

Edward wrinkled his nose. "Jacob…"

Jake turned around, facing the vampire. The two boys stared at each other for a moment. A shirtless Jake stood a few feet from Edward. Jake was still a few inches shorter than the vampire, but he had now matured into a young man. Edward longed for a man such as Jacob. He had been longing for someone like Jake for years now, and he wasn't about to let him go.

"Carlisle is going to kill me for this but…Jake, I want to show you something."

"What?" Jake blushed, and looked down at his feet.

Edward smiled and disappeared, quickly returning with a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt. He threw them to Jake and smirked.

"Trust me Jake." Edward smiled as he slowly reached his hand out to the boy.

Any guess where Edward is taking Jake? Let me know:) Please Rate & Review.

P.S. I hope to release Chapter 5 shortly after Christmas. Unfortunately my writing schedule has been mowed down, due to finals this week. My stress levels are riveting, and I sometimes write weird things when my patience wear thin. So after December 18th, I go on a 2 week break from school, in which I hope to crank out 2 or 3 chapters for everybody. There is so much in store for Edward and Jacob, maybe even some steamy stuff?

Thanks again for staying with me, and reading my work.

Love, TyRaWr
