Jakes POV
We got back from hunting and I was feeling fabulous. I had FINALLY told the girl I had loved for so long that I was in love with her, and for some ridiculous reason, she loved me as well! I walked back into the house, expecting to smell her gorgeous smell. It was the smell of strawberries and cream, with a slight hint of freesia. I guess she had gotten that from Bella. I sniffed as I walked through the door and couldn't smell anything. I turned around and saw Edward, frozen in the doorway. One second he was there, and the next he was gone. I heard a banging upstairs. We all followed him up the stairs. Bella followed his scent which led us all into Nessie's room where he was reading something. Edward read it out with a monotone and we all gasped. No one had suspected a thing. I looked around. Edward was silent, Jasper and Emmett were staring at the note and I could tell Bella was only just holding herself together. Nessie was only 16! I couldn't take the look on everyone's faces. I ran into my room and banged the door. I burst into tears and cried into my pillow. The happiest 24 hours of my life had turned into the worst. And the thing that hurt the most is that she only thought I wanted to be with her is because I couldn't have Bella. I was angry, frustrated, annoyed and distraught.

I still sat on Emily's couch. It had only been 2 hours since I had arrived but it felt like days. I felt naked without Jake at my side, and lonely without my family. Em was in the kitchen making Lasagne for dinner. Cassie was lying on a rug in front of me and Sam was sitting on the couch next to me with his arm around my shoulders. I had told them the whole story, front start to finish. Emily had hugged me and had let me stay for as long as I needed. I promised that i would leave after dinner but she wouldn't hear of it and made up the guest room for me.
"Dinner's ready!" called Emily from the kitchen, and Sam picked up Cassie and we went into the kitchen. Sam put Cassie in her highchair and sat down next to Emily. I sat down and started to eat. It tasted heavenly in my mouth.
"Em, this tastes amazing!" I exclaimed.
"Thanks" she grinned at me. I knew she was happy to see me, as I was happy to see her and the rest of the family, but I wish it had been in better circumstances. Just then the phone rang and I froze. Sam growled at he go up to answer the phone.
Emily looked at me and said" Don't worry; it's probably just one of the wolves. They often ring at dinner time as a joke because they know Sam hate it". She giggled to herself.
"Nessie" Sam called. I knew what his tone meant. They had found me. "Phone for you!" he continued.
"I don't want to....." i began but Em held up her hand.
"Ness honey, you need to talk to them. Let them explain everything "she said, with a serious expression. I relented and got up to answer the phone.
"Hello?" I answered quietly
"NESSIE!" I heard Jacobs's voice and it made my knees weak. I had to remind myself that he didn't love me; he only wanted me because Mum was taken. I shuddered.
"What do you want Jacob?" I growled at him.
"Nessie you can't believe that I still love your Mum. As soon as i imprinted on you, the love was stronger for you" I heard him choke. "I miss you".
"Jacob i don't want to see you ever again" I told him, on the verge of tears.
I heard a bang and then heard Mum's voice.
"Nessie don't ever do that ever again" she said angrily. She was angry. I laughed.
"You have no right to be angry at me. You let me fall in love with him and you knew it was only because he couldn't have you. You just wanted to get him off your case so you forced him onto me" I screamed. "I HATE YOU!" By this time I was sobbing profusely and making a lot of noise. I felt Emily's arm around me and she took the phone off me gently.
"Bella?" she said into the phone. "Nessie's safe here but I think you need to come and explain everything because Nessie isn't going anywhere".
"NO!" i wailed but Emily held her finger up and I knew not to argue with her. She said goodbye to Mum and hung up the phone.
She hugged me tight, and wiped my tears away. "Nessie, they need to explain everything and you need to talk to them. Now, are you still hungry?" she asked me. I shook my head and she led me to the guest room.
"Do you want to sleep?" she asked me. I nodded. She left and I dressed into some trakkies and a tee-shirt, and I threw on my hoodie. I had just climbed into the bed and I heard a knock at the door.
"Come in" I croaked. I hadn't even realised I was crying. Em came in and with a tray of hot chocolate and brownies. My stomach rumbled at the sight. She put it down on the bedside table and sat on the bed. She hugged me and I cried into her shoulder. Sam walked into the room as well with Cassie.
"Thank you so much for everything" I said. "I'm so sorry i didn't mean to intrude".
"Nessie its fine" Sam said, trying to reassure me. "I would never forgive myself if i didn't help. Your family are coming. I know you don't want to but it's for the best". He said goodnight and gave me a hug. I kissed Cassie on the cheek and they left. I hugged Emily again and she left smiling as well. I drunk the hot chocolate and ate the brownies. They were fabulous of course. It made me feel a little better but for the second night in a row, I fell into a restless sleep.
