Chapter 7
BPOV
Four fucking weeks! I had broke my foot in three places and I couldn't get a cast, no they gave me a boot. Guh! Jake was a live-in guest on the couch because Charlie didn't believe that I could get around the house well enough, although I secretly believed that he was just worried that I was going to hurt myself again. Mainly because my back story was me falling down the back porch I cannot say that my invalid status was all bad. Like I said Jake was living on my couch, which made him very handy to my carnal desires.
He tried to be a good little nurse for me, but it only lasted until I had to take a shower. He never mentioned my little confession at the ER, but I didn't either. That was until just now. We were just watching TV relaxing after he picked me up from my early morning class, laying on the couch together and he just looked at me seriously. "Did you mean what you said in the ER?"
I sat up, tugging his hands so that he would sit up too and cupped each side of his face, looking into his eyes. "Jake, I meant it. I don't know what it means, but I do love you, very much."
"What is it you were thinking about that inspired you to tell me?" I asked, turning his face so he could kiss my hand.
I sighed letting my hands drop to his with a reassuring squeeze. "I have always thought of love as something for fairy tales, but watching you pace around the room like you were," I shrugged and looked away. I'm pretty sure my face was cherry at the little confession. "I could see you in the future, pacing around while you wait for me at the alter. Or pacing around, waiting for our children to be born. I saw this. I don't think that my ex-boyfriend could be a vampire and my best friend could be a werewolf and me not believe in fairy tales." I took a deep breath and felt his fingers under my chin willing me to look at him again.
"I do pace too much." He grinned kissing me. "Bella Baby, I saw all that the second I looked at you. Well, maybe not the pacing part, but the rest of it. I have just been sitting around waiting for you to catch up."
"Well, I can't say that I am ready to run off to the alter just now, but I will accept that you are maybe a little more then my best friend." I said flopping ungracefully forward, knocking him back on the couch. "Plus, I can't hide the fact that I am totally hot for Jake the Snake." I wiggled on top of him as best as possible with my boot hanging off the couch on the floor.
He pulled me up so that he could reach my lips, passionately claiming them as his. I rested on hand on his chest and the other one slid between us and snaked down his shorts. He groaned, jerking his hips in the hand that held him firm and I felt my shirt being lifted as he snuck his own hand in to cop a feel.
A howl broke through our heated fog, causing us both to groan in frustration. "This better be fucking good." He grumbled while he straightened himself out and went out the back door.
JPOV
I get Bella to admit that she loves me more then a best friend and that some day, marriage and children are an option, on top of that, I was about to celebrate by fucking her silly. . .and here I am. Blue balled and having to go outside in the cold ass rain, this better be fucking good or else I just might neuter someone.
Undressed and left my clothes in a pile near Bella's house and phased, my mind clicking with the packs very urgent ranting.
She's a Cullen!- Sam snapped.
She is a Cullen trying to see Bella. Jake said not to let any of them near her!- Embry snapped back.
Jake! Thank God, can you please tell them not to kill the pixi.-Sam ordered, though it sounded a little desperate, I wondered how close to them killing her she is.
Close enough to where if she tries to move she will lose her her head- It was Quill that answered my random thought.
Let me get there before go killing anyone.- I said, running to where Same showed me that they were. When I entered the small clearing the Pixi perked up. What did Bella say her name was? Annie. . .Amy. . .Alice. Alice, that was it. I phased, not caring one bit about modesty, I was no attraction for her and nor was she for me so there was no shame.
"Why are you trying to come see Bella?" I said without preamble, there was no time for games. This might be a trick and Bella is alone at the house.
"Oh thank god, Jake. Please call off the dog pound, I was trying to protect her!" She pleaded. Her eyes told me that she told the truth and I waved my hand at Quill and Embry, but looked at Sam who was behind Alice.
"Sam, Bella is alone." I warned him, knowing he'd send someone out there, though these three stayed at my side. I turned my attention back to the pixi. "Tell me."
She nodded and walked a little closer, causing Quill to whine, but I waved him down. "Edward, I swear, I didn't know he was going to do what he did. It's not something we would have thought possible for him to do. It's just, it was a snap decision and I didn't know until it was done." Her face looked truly remorseful and I felt bad for her, but she hadn't answered my question.
"And now?" I prompted.
"Right, well his mind has been all jumbled and fucked up since then, switching ideas as if someone where flipping channels." She explained quickly. "I'm not saying he'll do anything to hurt her, but he keeps thinking of ways to punish himself by death. He keeps flashing on breaking the treaty so that you guys kill him and then he flips to, if he's going to break the treaty, then he'll take Bella with him. That's why I'm here." She said finally. "Not that he will do it, but the fact that it keeps showing up scares the hell out of me. I like Bella, she is like a sister to me. Even if Edward is my brother, he was and is in the wrong." She said with conviction that belonged to a much larger being, not this tiny little thing.
I nodded thoughtfully and then looked back at Sam. "The Pixi and..." I looked at her for confirmation.
"Jasper, the shorter blond, curly hair." She said quickly. "Too many will complicate your sniffers. Just us two, no one else."
I looked back at Sam. "They are they only one's that go anywhere near Bella's house. Edward Cullen is dismember first, ask questions later." I said, ordering them as if I were acting Alpha. Sam nodded his big head and all three ran back into the woods, leaving me and pixi alone. "Follow me." I said, phasing once again and heading back to Bella's house.
Pixi waited by the tree line for me to change back into my clothes and we both walked into the back door, greeted by Bella making lunch in the kitchen. She smiled at me then it instantly fell away and she whole body went ridged at the sight of the pixi. I took her in my arms and murmured into her ear. "She has something to say."
Alice pounced on Bella, making me jump a little until I heard her wailing apologies. "Oh Bella! I didn't know! He's such prick, if i had only known! I could have saved you!" She hugged the still stiff Bella tight and then looked down seeing her leg and started all over again. "Oh that fucking asshole! He did this to you?! God, I would have saved you, I'm so sorry!"
Bella finally smiled and hugged the frantic woman back. "I'm fine, really. It's only broken because I thought that kicking at him would do something effective." She joked, Pulling away from the fluttery vampire slightly. "It's not your fault, really, don't worry. As long as he's not here...?" She looked between Alice and me.
"NO!" we said in unison and Bella's face washed over with relief.
"Well, not that I don't love seeing you," she said, picking up on the randomness of Alice's visit. "You hardly ever are just visiting, so what is it you are here, escorted by my boyfriend?"
SHE SAID BOYFRIEND! Don't be a chick, Jake!
Alice gently pushed Bella to a chair at the table and sat across from her while I sat next to her, grabbing up her hand in mine. "This is not going to be what you want to hear."
