I hope you guys read my AN About names, the plot and that other stuff, because I actually really am sorry you guys felt that way. But, since I was like 5 days late with Chapter six, I Give you CHAPTER 7! *Hint Hint*
Remember what I said in the authors note for the very first chapter? Its just the way twilight goes and I'm sorry if you hate me for writing it.
Chapter 7
The whole ride back to Bella's was silent. I kept casting worried glances over to her, expecting her to cry or something, but she just seemed to be trying to pull herself together.
Thats one thing I loved about her. The fact that she was so strong.
When we pulled up to her house, she didn't get out right away and I turned to face her.
"Are you sure you'll be alright?" I asked quietly.
She gave me a small smile. "Yes very sure. Thank you Jacob, for sticking up for me."
I smiled back and pushed a lock of hair from her face. "Anything for you."
A rosy blush that I'd never seen before graced her cheeks and It was the cutest damn thing ever.
Cutest...God listen to me.
"Well I guess I better be going." She said.
"No wait, I-I was wondering...Would you maybe like to get some dinner with me on Saturday?"
"I...No I can't I'm sorry."
What was that feeling in my chest? I know it hurt!
"Its not...I'm not asking you out for those reasons Bella, I just want to spend some time with you."
She shook her head. "No No, I know your not. Its just I'm not allowed to date."
"Oh. Well I can talk to your Dad about it?"
"I can't ask you to do that."
"I know. Thats why I'm offering."
She stared at me for a moment, before a smile stretched over her lips. "Okay. Come on in. He should be back from the station by now."
She hopped out of the car and I stayed behind a minute, praying that he didn't still have his guns around.
"Bells? Is that you?" He yelled, coming down the stairs. "I was thinking we may- What is he doing here?"
"Daddy, he came here to talk to you. I'm going to start my homework okay?"
She disappeared up the steps and I held out my hand. "Nice to see you again Sir."
He looked at me like I had two heads and turned to sit on one of the couches.
"What exactly do I owe this visit, Mr. Black? Gotten yourself into some more trouble?" He asked.
"No sir, not at all. I want your permission to take Bella out to dinner this Saturday."
He snorted, "My Bella? I'm sorry Mr. Black I don't think thats going to happen."
"Mr. Swan, I know I haven't treated Bella the way she deserves to be treated, and she could probably do so much better than me. But... I have feelings for your daughter, She's...She's special. I'm not asking for a second chance, just for you to have faith in me."
He searched my eyes for a minute and I held his gaze, not willing to back down.
"If you hurt my Daughter ever again Jacob Black..."
A relieved sigh escaped my mouth and I jumped up. "I won't sir, I promise. Tell Bella I'll pick her up at 7 o'clock sharp! Thanks!"
I grabbed my bag and ran out of the house, feeling happier Than I've ever felt.
Then I realized it was only Tuesday.
"FUCK!"
...
By time Saturday rolled around, I was up early, showered, and dressed by noon. Then I just wandered around the house, having nothing else to do.
"Jacob! Why don't you make yourself useful and come help you dear old Mom in the kitchen so you'll stop walking around like a lost puppy."
I rolled my eyes and walked into the kitchen where Mom was cleaning up. We worked in silence for a few before she looked up and smiled.
"What?" I asked. "Stop looking at me."
"You really like this girl don't you?"
"What girl?"
She slapped my arm. "Oh you know good and well who I'm talking about. This Bella Swan, you really like her."
"Yeah. I do." I answered quietly.
"I hope your not just yanking her heart around Jacob, or using her. She's a nice girl and I would be so disappo-"
"Its not like that!" I almost yelled. "Its not... like that with her okay? Can we just drop this now?"
I saw her smirk out the corner of my eye and groaned, throwing some soap water at her. She gasped.
"Jacob Black!" She screeched, and thus started a water fight.
I had never felt so childish...So happy.
By time 6:30 rolled around, I was dressed in some fresh clothes, and ready to head out.
"I'm Leaving Ma!" I yelled.
"Okay! Don't forget I'm working late tonight, so don't expect me home! Love you!"
"You too Ma!"
I grabbed my keys off the counter and sped off to Bella's.
"Ten minutes early, Mr. Black." Charlie smirked. "Bella's just about ready, let me get her for you."
When he closed the door, I took a couple deep breaths, giving myself a pep talk, but the last exhale got stuck in my throat when Bella opened the door.
She wasn't wearing anything extravegent, just a light purple dress and the pink sweater I bought her, but still... She never looked any more beautiful.
"Are you ready to go Jacob?" She asked, smiling.
Finally I exhaled. "Y-yeah, lets go."
I grabbed her hand, helping her into the passenger seat, ran around to the drivers seat and we were off.
"So where are we going?"
I smirked. "Its a surprise, but I think you'll like it."
I ended up taking her to an outdoor restuarant, somewhere I knew kids our age didn't hang out. Not because I was embarrassed to be seen with her, rather than just wanting a peaceful night without people staring and whispering about us.
"Wow! This place is so nice Jacob!" Bella commented, as we were seated.
"What can I say? I'm a secret romantic."
She giggled quietly, and we looked through our menu's in silence, not desperate to fill it with mindless chatter.
"Jacob, not to be rude, but this place is really expensive... Are you sure its okay?"
I smirked, "Don't even worry about it okay? Choose whatever you want."
"Okay." She answered, with a small smile.
I was so glad my da- Billy, Decided to send some cash my way before tonight. After me and Bella ordered and ate, I smiled at her.
"What?" She asked, softly.
"Do you want to dance?"
"Oh Jacob, I...I can't dance. I have two left feet."
"So do I. We can make fools of ourselves together. Come on."
I grabbed her hand and we walked to an empty spot in the grass. I wrapped and arm around her waist and held her hand in the other. We slowly revolved, her only stepping on my toes a couple times.
"You know, I hate dancing." I admitted, after a couple minutes. "Thats why I never go to school dances."
"Then why'd you ask me to dance?" She asked quietly.
I smirked and pushed a stray piece of hair out of her face. "Because your special. And I know you wouldn't laugh at me if I looked like a complete idiot."
She laughed softly and blushed.
"So...Whats number one on your list?"
She smiled and shook her head.
"Okay fair enough... Well number one on my list is to get th hell out of La push."
"I don't think getting out of La push is your problem, thats easy. I think figuring out what your going to do once your out is harder."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, you can do anything Jacob, If you just tried."
I stared into her big brown eyes and felt myself fall alittle more in love with her in that moment.
"What do you say we get out of here? We still have a couple of hours left and I want to take you somewhere."
"Take me where?"
I smiled, "You'll see."
...
"Come on Bella Run!" I yelled, pulling her along beside me. Her laughter sounded like music to my ears.
"Whats going on Jacob?"
I stopped running, just where We needed to be. "Put one foot right there." I instructed. "And one right there." She did as I said then looked at me with a amused smile.
"Your acting like a crazy person what are we doing?"
I could not get the smile off my face. "Okay so right now you are straddling the treaty line seperating La push and Forks."
"Okay...?" She drew out confused.
I pointed to the sign that read 'Welcome to La Push!'
"Your in two places at once."
Her smile grew impossibly bigger as the realization of what I said hit her. She laughed and jumped into my arms. I chuckled with her and spun her around.
"Come on, I have one more surprise."
(I'm skipping the tattoo part!)
I drove us to the pier, down by first beach and got out, jogging around to Bella's door and taking hold of her hand. We walked onto the bridge in silence, listening to the waves crash onto shore and the sounds of nightlife.
"How can people find places like this and not believe that there's something out there... Something bigger... Greater than us." Bella said softly. She let go of my hand and walked towards the end of the bridge.
"Your lucky enough to be so sure."
She stood there for a minute, silently, before speaking again.
"Its like the wind. I can always feel it, but never see it."
"Well, what do you feel?" I asked.
"I feel... Wonder and Beauty... Love and joy. I mean some of everything."
When she turned around to face me, I watched how the wind blew through her hair, and how the moonlight beamed down on her, illuminating her beautiful ivory skin almost making her glow it seemed. I admired every line, every pass of her face, and my eyes finally fell to those supple pink lips once again.
"I might kiss you Bella." I stated quietly, taking a step forward.
"I might be bad at it." She whispered.
I grinned and gently cupped her cheek. "Impossible." With that I pressed my lips to hers softly. Our lips moved together in perfect harmony, molding perfectly, like we were meant to be together.
When we seperated, I rested my forehead on hers and took a shaky breath. I pulled back to look into her eyes.
"Bella..." I whispered. "I love you."
She stared at me for a long while, every emotion passing on her face.
Shock.
Fear.
Joy.
Sadness.
Excitment.
I let out a nervous laugh after it seemed like forever passed.
"Now...Would be a nice time to say something." I hinted, trying to coax a response out of her.
"I... I told you not to fall in love with me." She finally whispered.
My brows furrowed. I didn't know whether to take that in a good or bad way.
"I can't help the way I feel Bells..."
I leaned in to kiss her again, and slightly relaxed when she didn't push me away or protest in anyway.
But of course the moment was ruin by my cell phone ringing.
"Sorry, Bella." I apologized.
She gave me a soft smile and motioned for me to answer it. I took a step away and answered it. Angrily.
"What?" I hissed into the reciever.
"May I speak with Sarah and Billy Blacks son, Jacob Black please?" A woman asked me.
"Um, this is him, who is this?"
"I'm a nurse calling from Grady hospital in Forks. There's been an accident."
Damn cliffy huh? Lol Sorry I had to leave you hanging like that, but you've gotta be on your toes for the next chapter right? Hope this was better than the last one (I double checked names ;) ) Next one should be up by Friday or Saturday night! Love you guys, HUGGS!
