I made a promise to forgive Jacob. But as I sit here on the couch and listen to him rage on about Bella and Edward getting married, I think I might have to break that promise. He's drunk and I know he must of drunk a lot because his body temperature would burn it all away quickly. "How can she marry that bloodsucker!" He slurred angrily. "They love each other" I remind him gently. He turns to look at me and slams his fist against my wall. "She loved me! I could of been her husband." He snarled at me. I feel my body deflate. Jacob would never change, he was to stuck on himself and not the ones around him. "That may be, but she chose him not you." I tell him softly. That set him off. The bottle in his hand was smashed on the floor and she was to close. He shifted and she didn't have enough time to either run or teleport. His claws slashed across my neck and I flew to the ground grasping my neck gasping for breath.
I heard a whine and saw Jacob's wolf shift back to him. I was choking on my blood and everything was getting blurry. "Lucy! Oh my god." I felt him pick me up and start to run. I closed my eyes. "No, no, no" He shook he while keeping a steady pace. "Lucy, you have to stay up, you can't fall asleep." He urges me. I felt blood seeping out of my lips and as hard as I tried to stay up, I couldn't and I slipped away to nothing.
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
I slowly opened my eyes. I felt a soreness in my throat and saw a cup of red liquid on the table beside my bed. I knew it was blood by the smell. I slowly picked up the cup and gulped the liquid down greedily. "Alice knew you would need that." A familiar smooth voice spoke out loud. I turned to see Carlisle smiling at me. "We were all very worried about you." He told me softly. I smiled but my heart felt the pain of being hurt by my soulmate. "What happened?" I asked hoarsely. "You were rushed in by Jacob, on the brink of death, I did all that I could and your body healed yourself, but being only half vampire you have scars" I got up and looked in the mirror and saw the pink scars across my neck.
I blinked away the tears and he put his hand on my shoulder. "Lucy, Bella may be part of the family but I am very ashamed of her for doing this to you and I feel anger towards Jacob for letting her come between soulmates." I turned to look at him in question. My throat still being sore, I didn't wan't to talk to much. "What I am trying to say is, is that you need to do something for yourself and not others and I know that you have been accepted to go to Africa to work with the lions. Maybe you should go." I smiled at the thought of my dream job. But I didn't want to leave all my friends, they were my family. But I needed to get away from him. My soulmate who hurt me the most, when he was suppose to be the one who kept me safe. I nodded in agreement. "You are suppose to leave tomorrow on a plane that Esme and I booked for you. Alice saw you leaving, though your future wasn't clear." He smiled at me gently. "Lucy, you're family before anyone, even Bella. We will all be here for when you return." I nod and give him a smile. "Rosalie packed your stuff, you may stay here and we will take you tomorrow to the airport." I agree to stay and walk down the stairs to see the rest of the Cullen's.
What I did not need to see was Jacob. "Lucy!" He exclaimed and rushed towards me. I flinched and he stopped with a pained expression on his face. "I'm so sorry, Lucy." He begin to cry and I wanted to comfort him but he hurt me so much. "Jacob, I'm leaving." He seemed to be in some kind of denial. "To your house? I understand if you need some time.." I interrupted him swiftly. "Jake, I'm going to Africa for my job." He froze and just stared. "What. No. I know I messed up but Lucy, I need you." I shushed him softly. "Let's go up to the guest room to talk in private." I tell him and he nods softly. "Okay" I walked up the stairs and he followed me.
When we got into the room I felt lost. He was my soulmate and I didn't want to hurt him but he has hurt me this whole time. "Please don't go" He whispered hoarsely and I saw him crying. I walked closer and his eyes zoned onto my scars. "I'm sorry; but I need to leave. I need to go away. You've heard me so much and I've came back repeatedly. I need to go my own way and it's not with you." I told him softly. He looked at his feet and I walked closer and grabbed his face. "I love you. I really do love you, but I need to take a break from you. You've hurt me to much and I need to get away." He nods and grabs me close kissing me. I kiss back and gasp when he throws me onto the bed and grabs my waist grinding against me. I tense and he whispers "Just let go." I'm unsure at first but when I feel his fingers slide up my leg and touch me and his lips caress my scars on my neck. I decide to just let it happen.
I'm sitting on the edge of the bed looking at Jacob and even if last night felt amazing and by the way he made love to me I knew he loved me. But I knew I had to leave. I kissed his cheek softly. "I love you, Jacob." I whisper and then I walk downstairs and I smile at the Cullen's.
I didn't know when I would see him again. But I do know, that Jacob and I would be together in the end. Just not now.
So it's the end of the book. I know it's kind of a cliff hanger but I might make a epilogue or something. Anyways, I didn't want to make it so easy for Jacob and Lucy needed to give him a bit of a hard time. I love my character Lucy and hope you all did too! Review please. Love you guys.
