I do NOT own any of the Twilight characters!
As soon as Jacob and I got downstairs, there was a police officer with black hair and a mustache throwing his jacket over the couch. "Bella, I'm sorry I didn't get to the hospital! I've been busy with a few things. Are you alright?" He asked. Jacob explained to him what had happened. "Amnesia?" He asked, surprised. "Well, well, well. It sounds so….Bella." he chuckled. "I'm your dad, Charlie." He said.
I nodded. "Ok." He seemed confused. He looked to mine and Jacob's hands, which were bound tightly together. "Where's Edward?" he asked. "I broke up with him. I like Jacob a lot better." I said, blushing. Charlie nearly bounced through the roof. He was hollering and screaming and to be honest, he looked like a total idiot.
"What?" I asked. "Bells, do you know how long I've been waiting to hear you say that? Well…no, of course not. But I knew you'd end up with Jacob!"
Jacob laughed. We watched Charlie jump over the couch and on the love seat, right until he flipped over the recliner. I giggled. My dad was a total nut job.
He got back up and started jumping again. He jumped on the kitchen table and on the stairs (bad idea) and then, finally, he tripped over the table and went crashing into a door.
Jacob and I were laughing so hard, tears were streaming down our faces. We didn't bother to ask Charlie if he was ok. It was just too funny. But of course, he just got up and started jumping again. This time, he ran into the TV, and then, he fell up the stairs. Yeah, he fell up the stairs.
Jacob and I couldn't bear it any longer. We fell to the floor laughing with tears streaming down our faces like waterfalls. Finally, Charlie calmed down, blushed, and went upstairs. Eventually, Jacob and I were able to pull ourselves together and go for a drive.
While we were driving around, I had one question on my mind that needed to be answered. "Does he know about….?" My hand fell to my stomach. "Yeah. He kicked you out of the house because of it, and you went to live with Edward. Of course, if he kicks you out again, there's always space at my house." I rolled my eyes. "But aren't you upset? I mean, it's not even yours." I said quietly. "Well…you came crying to me at one point. It was after that filthy blood sucker left you. Anyways, I just want you to be happy." So he did care. But…what about Edward? We were so in love before all of this. But it upset Charlie and Jacob. I knew what I had to do. I would go see Edward tonight after Jacob dropped me off. I would ask him to kiss me. Then, if I felt more from kissing him then Jacob, I'd know who to be with. It was settled. But I wasn't going to tell Jacob just yet. It'd upset him.
"Where are we going anyways?" I asked. He shrugged. "Just driving around." I looked outside. The sun had already set, and I was tired. I yawned.
Jacob suddenly pulled up into my drive way. "I'll see you tomorrow." He said, kissing me again. "Bye Jacob." I answered. I got out of the car, and waved good-bye as he drove away. The police cruiser I'd seen earlier was gone, meaning Charlie was, too. I pulled out my phone, found Edward's number, and pushed send.
"Hello?" He answered. "Edward? It's Bella." I said. "Bella! Did you get your memory back?" he asked excitedly. I sighed. "No. But I want to see you. Now." I said. "On my way." He answered.
The next thing I knew, Edward was standing next to me. "Yes?" He asked. "Well…things with Jacob…they don't feel right. I mean…when he kisses me…nothing. So…I was wondering…" But I didn't get a chance to finish my question. Edward was already kissing me, his cool lips crushing mine. It felt nice. It felt right. It felt…better than kissing Jacob. I ran my fingers through his bronze hair as his arms constricted around my waste.
But he pulled away too soon. "Wow…that was….wow." He smiled. "I'll have to be getting back now. I'm sorry. But my family is hunting, and I have to join them. But I'll be back if you need me." He hugged me. "Good-bye, Bella. See you soon." I smiled. "Good-bye Edward." He ran off.
So this was it. It wasn't Jacob I belonged with. It was Edward, and it had been all along. One day. I'd given Jacob one day, and already, I wanted to go to Edward. It felt cruel. I felt like I was committing a federal crime. But I was doing something good. I was stopping something wrong before one of us got hurt.
I would end things with Jacob tomorrow with Jacob. He'd understand, wouldn't he? Maybe. Would he lose his temper and phase into a werewolf? Of course not. So I did want Edward. It was what was right for me.
