Jake's POV

I have no idea what happened last night but I have a feeling its Bella's fault, not Sam's. She is sleeping on my couch right now. I have no idea what happened but she wasn't mad. If he had done something she would have been mad. She had the ring on so I assumed he proposed and she said yes and then… I need to know what happened! I guess I could ask Sam.

What the hell happened last night? Jake

You really need to let her tell you. Sam

She wouldn't talk to me last night and I would really like to be prepared for when they both wake up. Jake

She doesn't want kids. Sam

I knew that. You broke up with her over that? Jake

She doesn't want kids because she thinks I will stop loving Lexi as much. But she has no doubts that you will always love Lexi just as much as you would love your own kids. Sam

Crap. Please just her give time. I can fix this. Jake

That's the problem. You will always be more important to her than me. She never doubts you and she'll always run to you. She'll never really be mine. If it is OK with her, and probably you too, I would still like to spent time with Lexi. I really do love her, I already see her as my daughter. But if not than I understand. Take care of both of them. Sam

That's not true. She loves you Sam. If you give up on her she'll never really be OK. Jake

I love her too. But I just can't see how this will work, I won't give up on her yet though. Sam

Definitely Bella's fault. He is wrong about me being more important than him though, I'm just differently important. I'm the one that's always been there for her. He can't expect me to just stop being her best friend. It wouldn't be a problem if I were a girl.

"Jake, where is Lexi? She doesn't sleep this late." Bella asks from the couch, she sounds like crap.

"She does when she's hopped up on cookies and Pepsi and stays up until midnight." I admit.

"Nice Jake, no wonder she loves you so much." She smiles a little.

"I talked to him, Bella. You're an idiot"

"Way to be supportive Jake. You know how I feel about kids and it's not going to change. I thought you agreed with me." She's so sad and I feel bad but I need her to see how stupid she's being.

"I did Bella but he's right. I love Lexi so much and you know me having kids would never change that. So why do you assume he can't feel the same way?"

"It's just different I don't know." She's trying to come up with a reason but I know she doesn't have one and soon she will realize this too.

"Mommy, why are you here? I thought you had work this morning? Did you have fun with Sam last night? Can I see him soon mommy? Can I have breakfast Jake? Can I have more Pepsi?" Lexi asks a billion questions as she comes out of the room.

"Oh crap I forgot about my shoot! I have like 15 minutes to get ready!" Bella shoots up and starts rushing around like a crazy person while I make her and Lexi a quick breakfast and convince Lexi Pepsi is not for breakfast. Soon she is rushing out the door and Lexi looks confused.

"Mommy never forgets work Jake. And why was she here and why did she look so bad? Did she not have fun with Sam?" Oh Lexi this is not a conversation for so early in the morning and it's not a conversation for me to be having with you.

"Mommy and Sam had an argument. And mommy was a little upset and tired. She'll be OK though. Why don't we meet Leah for lunch today?" Anything to change the subject.

"Can we see Sam too?" That did not work.

"Well, mommy is upset at Sam so…"

"But I'm not mad at him! He's my friend too!" So stubborn, just like her mother!

"I'll ask her OK Lex? But whatever mommy says we have to listen to her." I don't need her disowning me or anything. Lexi shakes her head yes but I have a feeling the agreement will only last if Bella says it's OK.

I told Lexi we were going to see Leah for lunch and she wants to see Sam. Is it OK? Jake

I doubt he wants to see her. Bella

He does. He even asked about it this morning. Jake

Fine! Bella

"You win Lexi, you can see Sam." I know Bella really didn't mean yes but I have proof of permission. I can always play dumb.

We spent the morning painting and baking cookies and making soup for Leah. Bella taught me how to bake and cook in high school. She said men that can cook are hot. Leah tends to agree.

"We should make lunch for Sam too!" Lexi tells me in a way that says if you tell me no I'm going to throw a huge fit and it's really just not worth it. So we make lunch for Sam too.

Lexi never loses. She got it from her mom, I don't know if it's a personality thing or if they are both just so freaking adorable when they look at you with their big brown eyes but it's dangerous.

Bella never loses and this is one fight she needs to lose. But can I make her see that without losing her?
