A/N: AAHH! Double digits! This is crazy. I honestly didn't know if I would even continue this story because of the lack of reviews. Oh my other story back on Quizilla, I had at least 20 every time I logged on. Oh well, that one was very popular. And, IM PUTTING IT ON FANFICTION!(: So go look at my profile. I'll update it every Tuesday and Thursday. It's Jake and a character I made up. On with the story!
Alizabeth's POV
I sat on my bed, waiting for Jacob to come in. I don't know what he and my sister were talking about, but it didn't bother me. He just admitted he liked me.
That got my mind reeling. I mean, I knew he liked me; the way we kissed, the way he cared, and the conversations we had, but it still was nice to hear him say it. I liked it a little more than I should have, to be honest.
I'm not saying I don't love my sister, so don't take it that way, but I love beating her. I mean, I know what Jacob just said. But I know that I'm better for him. She knows it too, and it kills her.
I was still thinking when Jacob came through the door. He had a smile on his face, but it was strained. "What's wrong Jacob?"
He dropped his smile, knowing he can't fool me. "It's nothing. Some things just didn't go in the right order. Don't worry about it."
I shrugged, knowing he wouldn't tell me even if I pushed the matter. "Okay. So the bonfire tomorrow. I'm excited." I said, trying to lighten the mood.
He smiled a small smile. "I am too. I think some things will work themselves out there. You're sitting with me."
I smiled. "I was planning on it. No need to get demanding on me." I joked.
He laughed and moved to sit on the bed with me. We moved around until we were laying down on our sides, facing each other. "Thank you." He whispered in a husky voice next to my ear. It sent a shiver down my spine and a flood of arousal to straight to my panties.
"For what?" I got my voice to choke out.
"For changing the subject. For not pushing further. For moving here. For agreeing to going to the bonfire. For meeting me. For playing at Jared's. For kissing me. For sticking up for me. For wanting to go to my school. For being born."
I couldn't help the smile and tears that picked at my eyes. "Don't cry baby." He said. "It's just the truth. You saved me, Alizabeth. You really did."
I shook my head. "I don't see how. I've know you for what? Two days? And I- I already have this weird feeling for you."
His eyes widened. "What's it feel like baby?"
I thought for a minute. "Well, I feel this, pull I guess, towards you. I like being around you. And when you aren't, if something isn't distracting me, I fell empty. But when you are with me, I feel at home. In your arms. It's weird. I don't do this, Jacob. I don't fall for guys after 48 hours." It felt good, admitting this to him. I needed him to know I felt this way.
He smiled. "I feel the same way. The exact same way." He said burying his face in the crook of my neck. "If you weren't tired, I would help you out with your problem."
I yawned. "What problem?"
I barely got that out before I felt his palm cup my mound. I totally forgot I was hot for him a minute ago. I gasped a moan. "Ja- Jacob? My dad- dad. He's, awake." I swallowed hard.
He chuckled. "I know. Reason number two why I can't." And his hand went away.
I whimpered at the loss. "But I want you too." I pouted.
He looked at me. "You're the one who told me to stop."
"Well, I can't be quiet, so we can't. I'm just telling you I want you."
He smirked. "We'll take a rain check, then. Go to sleep, love."
I mumbled a, "Mkay." and I was out like a light.
I woke up sweating. Why? Am I sick?
I tried to sit up and failed epicly. Turns out, Jacob was laying with me, arms around me. "Jacob. Wake up." I said, shaking him.
"Five more minutes, Dad." He mumbled.
I bit my lip to hold my giggle. "I'm not your dad, babe."
He moved his arms from around me and I sat up. He was still asleep. "Wake up!" I yelled a little louder, and looked at the clock. 9:00 am. Charlie's at work, but I can hear Bella snoring. "Jacob. I need you to wake up for me." I whispered in his ear.
He groaned. "Why?"
I smiled. "Because I want to cook you breakfast silly."
At the word breakfast, he opened his eyes. "You wanna cook for me?" He asked sleepily.
I nodded. "Okay, I'm up." He said. I laughed.
I got out of bed and walked through the hall and down the stairs to the kitchen, Jacob following. "You made me hot you know." I told him.
"Yeah, I seem to have that affect on women."
I rolled my eyes. "No, I mean I sweated. Look it." I pointed at my chest, which had a layer of sweat on it.
"Sorry Liz. It's my body temperature. I can't help it." He said, looking sheepish.
I smiled. He looked so cute. "It's fine. So what do you want?"
"Pancakes?" He asked hopefully.
"Sure thing." I was about to open the fridge, when I saw a not on the table. "Note from Dad." I told Jacob. I read it aloud. "Hey Alizabeth or Bella. I'm at work. I'll probably be here until 6 or 6:30. So, I'll be late to the bonfire, but I'll be there. You guys just go on ahead. If this is Bella reading, I'm allowing you to go see Edward. I know you were probably going to anyway, but I like giving you permission and knowing where you are. Have fun. If this is Alizabeth, you can hang out with Jake. You know I like him. Oh, and I know he's here." I froze. "I check on you both before I leave for work. It's okay. I trust Jake. I know you two didn't do anything. Have fun. I love you both, Charlie"
I looked at Jacob. "He knew you stayed here last night."
He simply shrugged. "Oh well. He said he wasn't mad. He loves me." He said smiling. "And it's good he trusts me, but he probably shouldn't."
I rolled my eyes and got the pancake batter out. Bella came flopping down the stairs. Her eyes froze on Jacob. "Why are you here so early?"
"I stayed here with Liz."
Her eyes widened. "We didn't do anything!" I yelled at her. "Pancakes?"
She smiled. "Yes please. It's good that someone else in this house can cook now." She said with a chuckle.
I smiled. I guess she's not mad. "Yeah, I heard Dad sucked at cooking."
She nodded. "Trust me. He did."
Jacob sat down at the table, opposite of Bells. "So are you going to the bonfire Bells?"
She looked between him and me. "No, I don't think so. I've already heard the legends and Alizabeth doesn't need me to distract her."
Jacob nodded and mouthed a silent thank you to Bella. I noticed. "Bella, you can come." I said. "You're not gonna distract me."
I was confused. Why would Jacob not want her to go? "Oh no. I'm going shopping with Alice and Edward anyway." She said. The way she wasn't looking me in the eyes told me she was hiding something.
"What are you hiding?"
She groaned. "How do you always know?"
I smirked. "Twin telepathy. And you suck at lying or anything of that nature."
"I know." She said. "But it's nothing really."
"Then why did Jacob say thank you?"
Jacob rubbed the back of his neck. "You saw that?" He asked. I nodded while flipping the pancakes. "I was just, uhm, thanking Bells for letting me spend alone with you."
"Yeah." Bella agreed, "I really was going shopping anyway."
Something's up with these two. I'll find out soon enough I guess.
The pancakes were done, so I took them out. I made 8; 2 for me and Bella, and four for Jacob. I hope that's enough for him.
"Thanks babe. These are really good." Jacob said with his mouth full. Me and Bella both chuckled. Maybe we can share Jacob.
A/N: READ THIS! Okay, thanks for the reviewers! The bonfire is next. DUN DUN DUN! Ha. Oki doki. Oh, and either message me or review on this question; Should I start a story? Okay, La Push Baby already has 35 chapters written. So I'm not stressed about that story. This one, I can update. And on Wednesday, I can update the new one. I'm thinking of making it about Leah and Sam before he met Emily. Before he was a wolf. Start out at the break up, and then go back in time to see how Leah and Sam started. What do you think? If no one wants to read it, I won't write it. PLEASE ANSWER!
