A/N This is were Jake starts to embrace whats happening.
Chapter 8 Departures
BPOV:
"Hey Bells!" Jake called from where I had left the cart. I ran towards him and he embraced me in a hug. But there was something different about this hug. There was no determination, no fight in it. Our embrace was full of friendship. It felt good, natural. When I pulled away he spoke.
"Bells, I'm leaving." Jake began. Then I started to feel distant. Jake was getting further and further away from me. I could hear Edward's voice in the distance. I wanted to answer, to tell him I was falling but I couldn't find my voice. The hole above my head was closing up and in a matter of seconds I was in complete darkness.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
EPOV:
Oh my! I hastily caught Bella before she plummeted to the ground.
"Jacob, why must you spring such information on her so abruptly? She does have a history of fainting like this." I told Jacob sternly.
"Just wake her up! I have to get going."
"Oh yeah let me just go get my black book and whip up an awakening potion." I said sarcastically.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
BPOV:
I heard them arguing and had to stop it. I forced my eyes to flutter open, and found I was on my couch at home. I looked around and realized I must have died there in the grocery store, because there was an angel sitting in what was supposed to be Charlie's chair. Then I blinked away my fuzzed vision and realized that it was Edward sitting in Charlie's chair. I sat up and he was at my side in a second, then Jake walked in from the kitchen. I, still dazed, could only sit, stare and blink rapidly. Then it dawned on me...
"Jake! Why are you leaving?!" I was gasping for breath. Edward, looking confused and helpless, could do nothing but sit back down in Charlie's chair.
"Bells I'm going to Alaska. I have to. It's like some unknown force is drawing me there. I can't ignore this anymore. I have to go see her. I don't even know her name. I have to Bells, please don't look at me like that."
They fight. Paris falls. It never said anything about Paris falling in love.
"I understand Jake. Do what you have to do. But, please, just promise me one thing." I pleaded. I really needed him to do this. I was horribly selfish, but he needed to do this for me.
"Sure Bells. I promise." he answered.
"Promise me you will call. Just keep in touch. If nothing else, wolf out and the pack will tell me. I just want to know, you know? I can't loose you again Jake, I just can't." I said.
"I promise Bells." he promised.
That made me feel a lot better. As long as I could make sure Jake was safe then I was ok.
"Bells I've got to get moving." he said, then moved gracefully to my side, kissed my cheek gingerly, and gave me a great big bear hug. This was my Jacob.
"I'll miss you Jake. Please be safe. Don't go picking any fights and good luck with your mystery girl." I teased.
"Don't worry" he chuckled"I'll do my best. Bye Bells. Edward." then he was gone.
I sighed. Now what? i was back at Charlie's house. Why could I not just stay out of drama for just one day? Oh yeah I had a werewolf for a best friend, a load of vampire soon-to-be in-laws, and a "super model" vampire fiance. The world was against me, but I was sure my life would never be this interesting if my best friend was Tyler, I had normal in-laws and Mike Newton was my boyfriend.
"Bella, what are you thinking?" Edward interrupted my deep thinking.
"Oh, just that I love my life." I answered matter-of-factly. "And yourself?"
"Actually, I was thinking the exact same thing." he said, with a goofy crooked grin.
