Chapter 6
BPOV
Jacob stood in the doorway to the living room, his fists clenched, his face twisted in rage. I flinched at the sight of him and Edward stood protectively in front of me. I knew this wouldn't end well, with Jacob so angry he was bound to lose some control and he wouldn't have a chance against Edward if he wasn't thinking clearly. But Edward might not be strong enough to protect himself, Jacob's anger made him stronger, even if he wasn't thinking clearly; he would be using his strength instead of his brain. Suddenly my dream was becoming very real. Jacob and Edward fighting, in the woods nearby, me stood close by but not being able to do anything as they charged towards each other.
I grabbed Edward's arm and stepped in front of him, protecting him from Jacob, and Jacob from him. I knew Jacob wouldn't hurt Edward if it meant hurting me. He cared about me and after everything we'd been through already he wasn't about to hurt me just because his enemy was behind me.
Jacob took a step forward, his face changing from anger to something else, the anger he had washed away as he took in my stance and his eyes became sad. I realised what he must be thinking, he thought I was choosing Edward over him, protecting Edward from him. He thought I thought he would hurt him.
I relaxed my body and took a step forward so I was now in front of Jacob,
"Don't fight," I whispered, "If you hurt each other it will hurt me, I don't want you to get hurt. Please."
Jacob's fist relaxed and he reached out to me, his face sad, I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around him, hugging him closely, telling him I still cared. Jacob held me tightly and buried his face in my hair. I smiled and remembered all the other times we had been like this, and how everything was going to change from now on.
I pulled away and sighed sadly. That would be the last time we would ever be like that.
Suddenly Edward growled from behind me and I turned to him, confused. His face was contorted with anger and he glared at Jacob, then he held out his hand roughly to me. I stared at his face and his golden eyes and. I stepped away from him and Jacob.
Edward's gaze focused on me then, his eyes becoming confused as he watched my face, my actions and he held out his hand again, gently this time, as if he knew what I was thinking, as if he knew he might lose me.
"Bella," He whispered slowly, painfully, sadly.
I couldn't find my feet, I couldn't move towards him, to take his hand and reassure him he wouldn't lose me again. I couldn't but I didn't know why. Maybe it was my self concious telling me that I couldn't trust him again. That I couldn't go to him because I felt I might get hurt again.
I went to speak but he silenced me with his hand.
He hung his head and walked slowly out of the room, his head lifted once to look at me but when he saw me his head dropped again and he walked out of the door. But before he left he placed a package on the coffee table with a note on top. I heard the door close and then he was gone, I didn't know if I'd ever see him again.
The tears rolled down my cheek and I turned back to Jacob and threw my arms around him and sobbed.
"Shh, it'll be alright." Jacob soothed and rubbed my back.
"No, it won't. He's gone after he promised he wouldn't leave again." I sobbed.
I had been right. It was my self concious telling me that I would be hurt again and it had been right. He left me and took my heart with him again.
"I'm here Bella. You don't need him, you have me, I won't leave you. Ever." Jacob whispered in my ear.
I hugged him closer and continued to sob.
What would I do now?
