Chapter 6.- Cullen-Black moment
Alice had again called me as soon as Edward had left. But this time, Bella was ready, she had gotten dressed for a day outside and was waiting for me in the porch, sitting in a chair staring off as was becoming tradition...
-"Bella!" I shouted when I got out of my car. She jumped a bit in her chair, startled. But a smile crept into her face as she saw it was me.
-"Jacob, you scared me"-she said. I laughed and hugged her, she hugged me back and I heard her sigh-"What are we doing today?"
I smiled at her sudden enthusiasm. We were definetely making progress.
-"Well, the weather is good but everything is muddy so we can´t go hiking or walking... and I don´t want to go back to the beach..." I shrugged.
-"So we should stay here, we can go out into the backyard..." she trailed off, unsure.
-"Sure, sure" I smirked at her and we gave a wide berth around the house before ending in the supposed backyard, which was more forest than actual backyard. It was basically a clearing.
Alice and Jasper were already there, sitting on a swing.
-"Hello, Jake! You´re staying here today?" Alice called.
-"Yeah" I waved in her direction and they both smiled back.
-"How´s Seth?" She continued yelling to me.
-"Fine, I guess. He said he might come over..."
-"Great! I´ll go tell Esme to make some food" She said as she stood up and pulled Jasper with her, skipping all the way to the house.
-"She really is something isn´t she?" I whispered to Bella who just laughed and walked to where they had been sitting.
-"We´re just going to stay here all day?" she asked a little disappointed.
-"Unless you want to do something else"
-"No, no I just thought that you didn´t like to be here" she shruggged.
-"I don´t like to be inside the house, but outside I´m alright"
-"Oh, okay" she started swinging back and forth.
And I just watched as she started gaining speed. The door opened and Seth walked out of the house with a smile on his face, followed by half the Cullens: Rosalie, Emmett and Esme. Esme was trying to get Seth to tell him what he wanted to eat, and Seth just kept telling her that he would eat whatever she wanted to cook for him.
-"I´m a vampire Seth. Just tell me what you want to eat and I´ll do it"
-"Um, I don´t know..."
-"Jacob! What do you want to eat?" she shouted at me.
At this point Bella had stopped swinging and was making her way to Seth.
-"How about hamburgers?" I asked both of them.
Seth grinned like an idiot and Esme nodded. I made my way to them as Esme disappeared to make them.
-"Seth!" Bella jumped in his arms and hugged him. Seth laughed and hugged her back. He waved in my direction and sat down in a chair that Emmett had brought out.
-"Hey pup!"-Rosalie snapped. Both Seth and I turned to look at her-"I didn´t mean you Seth"
I rolled my eyes at her and she pulled from behind her back a frisbee, she waved it at me. Bella and Seth snickered and just rolled my eyes again.
-"Ready mongrel? You have to go and fetch the frisbee after I throw it alright?" She said slowly as if talking to a very small child, or a very small dog.
You do realize that you are a dog?
I raised an eyebrow at her and she just smiled evily.
-"I have got to see this"-Bella chuckled and then stood up to whisper to me-
"Show her who´s boss, Jake"
-"We all heard you Bella! And we all know that my Rosie is the boss." Emmett yelled at her from his chair.
Bella, blushed a bright red and shouted back at him.
-"We´ll see about that Cullen"-and then to me-"if she wins you´re condeming me to Emmett´s endless teasing... please don´t disappoint me..." she trailed of and then went to sit between Seth and Emmett.
I shifted and went to stand in front of Rosalie.
-"Good boy, Black" I sat down in front of her and wagged my tail-"Oh ready? Fetch!" and she threw the frisbe into the forest. I ran after it.
Great first you do what a bloddsucker tells you to.. and now you´re also playing with them... that´s low man.
But what the little voice in my head didn´t know was that I had a plan that could never disappoint Bella.
As I dodged trees and plants following the frisbee I made sure I stepped on as many puddles of mud as I could, and since it was Forks I was covered in dirt, mud and dead leaves long before I reached the frisbee.
I ran back to the house and when I was about to enter the clearing I stopped and looked around.
When I saw where Rosalie was standing I narrowed my eyes and started running even faster than how I had been running in the forest.
Rosalie saw me from the corner of her eye and turned to look at me, anger in here eyes.
-"Don´t. You. Dare. Pup" she said through clenched teeth. When I was close enough I stopped but like I thought I would, my paws slid all the way tp where Rosalie was and with a loud crash we ended in the grass, which was also muddy.
-"Get. Off. Now" she said. I whined and stood up, leaving the drooled, muddy frisbee in her lap. I turned around and went into the forest again, shifting and putting on my pants before going back to the clearing.
Rosalie had stood up, covered in mud from head to toe, and I had to fight hard against the laughter that was bubbling inside of me.
-"Had fun blonde?" I yelled form the edge of the clearing.
-"I. Am. Going. To. Kill you!"
-"Hey, you´re the one who wanted to play... that´s what happens when you play with a pup." I said shrugging and walking around her to see Bella. Blondie got ready to strike when Bella laughter echoed across the lawn, followed by Emmett and Seth´s.
-"He... got... you!" Bella said through her laughter. Rosalie turned to shoot dagger at all of them and they immediately became silent.
Seth got up, scared and stuttered.
-"I´m...ermm.. going to... see how the hamburgers are doing..." he hurried into the house avoiding Rosalie´s eyes. When the door closed Rosalie stomped to the house and Emmett got up when she passed him.
-"Rosie, baby, it was just a joke!" He begged but Rosalie just glared at him and went inside the house. Emmett followed her like a scolded kid. After a few seconds another door slammed.
Bella started laughing again. I walked up to her.
-"So your punishment was getting teased by Emmett... what was his?"
She stopped laughing but the smile remained on her face.
-"I think that Rosalie´s anger is enough punishment" she said shrugging.
And right then I had a very good idea.
The bulb went on... finally!
-"Bella?"-she looked up at me, wondering-"Aren´t you going to give me a hug? You know, for being such a good friend and not disappointing you?" I walked up to her, arms stretched wide.
Her eyes got wide-"No I´m not"- she said taking in my muddy appearence.
-"Oh come on!" I moved forward, she dodged beneath my arm and jumped into the grass. I´m sure my eyebrows reached my hairline in surprise because she hadn´t fallen flat on her face.
-"Wow didn´t think I make it" she muttered to herself, even more surprised than me.
-"Are you trying to run away from me?" I said, turning around.
-"Maybe" she said and took off around the garden, trying not to fall on her face, a feat almost impossible for Bella Swan.
-"Bella come give me a hug!" I said as I took after her.
-"nooooo" she yelled back, laughing.
It was not long after that I caught up with her. I hugged her from behind and lifted her in my arms, getting her all muddy.
-"Put me down Jake!" she yelled again, laughing.
-"Why don´t you like my hugs Bells?" I whined still holding her in my arms.
-"Nooo... mud... clothes" she said through her laugh.
-"You´ve got more at home" I said lifting her up again.
-"Put me down Jake!" she continued laughing.
-"Though luck, Bells, you´re in my power now."I said lifting her up in the air again but she didn´t laugh this time, actually she wasn´t even struggling even more. She just stared silently at the door without any hint of a smile. I looked to where she was looking. And there standing in front of the door, arms crossed, stood Edward.
-"She told you to put her down, Jacob" he said coldly.
I put her down and she walked to him, head down, without looking back at me. She hugged him hesitantly and he held her close to her body.
-"Why don´t you go change your clothes, love, before you get sick" he whispered and she nodded. She looked like a zombie again as she walked inside.
-"Aren´t you ashamed of yourself? Because of you she looks like one of the undead" I said, accusingly.
-"I know Jacob, it´s all my fault"
Wow, he accepted it! But then again the first step is admitting that you have a problem.
-"Damn right it is! Do something about it won´t you? I´m getting tired of seeing her like this"
-"Don´t start Jacob,"-he pinched the bridge of his nose in exasperation-"I know very well what I got to do, my family makes sure that I never forget. But I won´t do it. Because I´ve got my reasons, reasons which your small mind would fail to comprehend." He finished coldly.
-"It´s as simple as this: if you really love her you would do it!" I said though it pained me to do so. He tensed and stared off.
Ha! Take that!
But his brow furrowed.
-"No" he muttered and started pacing in front of the door.
-"Hey! I´m talking to you!" I shouted and it was as if he had snapped out of his daze. He stopped pacing and looked at me.
-"Jacob, come inside this involves you too." And he entered the house, leaving me staring stupidly after him.
What´s going on?!
I ran after him, catching him standing at the bottom of the stairs.
-"Edward! What the hell is going on?"
-"Carlisle"-he called and then he looked at me-"The Volturi"
Oooooooooo
Why are the Volturi back?! haha I am stopping there!!!! But you shall know the answer in the next installment of Memoirs of a Werewolf.
