Chapter 10 - The New Boyfriend

BPOV

Well That Was Unexpected

I was stuck there in shock. His warm hands still on my cheeks. My hands still wrapped around his neck. He just told me he loved me. What the hell was I supposed to do now? Was I supposed to tell him I love him back? Was I supposed to walk off and act as if it had never happened? Instead, I came to a conclusion. I just decided to kiss him again and not say anything back. I pressed my lips to his again and kissed him passionately not wanting it to end. One because he kissed really good and two because if we stopped I would have to say something back.

After a few more minutes of kissing he pulled away, shit, what was I gonna say?

"Bella, I love you, I really do, do you love me back?" He asked. For god's sake, why did he have to ask such an awkward question.

"Jake I -"

"Listen Bella, I've never felt this way about a girl before, you don't have to answer my question straight away but just don't keep me hanging on too long Ok?"

"Sure, Ok." Then I went straight back to kissing him again so he couldn't say anything else. As we were kissing I was thinking about the last time I kissed a boy. I realised it was a year ago. Not as passionate as this one, only a quick peck on the lips but it didn't need to be passionate because it was Edward's lips who I was kissing.

I pulled away this time and went straight inside when Leah spun me round with a huge grin on her face.

"Om My God, I just totally saw you make out with Jacob, you really got into it girl! Is he good?"

"Amazing." I said quickly and headed straight to the toilets. I locked myself in and thought deeply about what I was going to say. I did not love Jacob the way I loved Edward, but I suppose I did love him. He was my safe harbour. His kisses were almost as good as Edward's, on a scale of one to ten about a nine. He made me want him to kiss him more! I didn't want to upset Jake, he was my best friend. I kept thinking of all the good times we had together, thousands. Then I was thinking about all the bad times we had had together, none. I realised I had to say yes. Without him, my life would be to hard to deal with. I walked out the toilets and quickly applied a bit more make-up. I made my way out the toilets and headed straight toward Jacob. He gave me a

huge grin and we hugged each other. Time to break the news. Leah and Beth winked at me and Beth looked like she wanted to jump up and down with excitement so Jacob had obviously told them what had happened. Jake took my hand and we went and sat down on the sofa. Jacob looked so happy, I just couldn't say I didn't love him, it would destroy him.

"So…" Jake said sarcastically. I smiled at him half-heartedly, I thought a little before I spoke. Is this what I really want? I am doing this for Jake or for me? I need him don't I? I do love him - don't I? Not as much as Edward. I love him like a brother. But I need him because Edward isn't here. Oh gosh - I'm using him. I'm such a bitch. Oh gosh, oh gosh, oh gosh, oh gosh. Oh what the heck, just tell him you love him Bella, you love him (sort of) and he loves you. Just say it.

"Jacob, I love you too." He smile was so wide and happy that I was so happy that I had made him smile that way. I smiled back just as happy and we kissed each other. We pulled away and everyone was staring, they just stopped in their places and stared, Sheesh!

"Yes, we're going out, gotta problem with that?" Jacob shouted. Everyone went back to dancing and acted as if it never happened, before I knew it two arms were wrapped around me.

"Oh gosh Bells, you're going out with my brother! I should find it strange but I am so happy, were sister - in - laws! Yey!" I turned round to find a very happy Beth jumping up and down, Leah standing behind her smiling. They went off dancing again when 'Smooth Criminal' came on. Seth winked at me and grinned. I started thinking again.

I did the right thing I think. Were both happy and so is everybody else, I've just got to forget about Edward now, it's me and Jacob, not me and Edward. He's probably forgot about me now anyway, probably going out with that Tanya, she always liked him, he'll be happier with her anyway. Yup, just me and Jacob now.

Me and Jacob didn't leave each other all night, just talked and kissed. At the end of the night he walked me back home and kissed me goodnight then walked back to his house. I walked into the house and went straight to my room, I was so tired I just flopped right onto my bed and fell into a deep sleep. I was woken in the morning to find that I had a text message from a girl called Renesmee, I never talked to her at school but she was in my History class. I asked her what her name was on my first day of school, she seemed friendly. Their were rumours going around school that she really liked Jacob but I never

thought that it was true. I asked what her phone number just for the heck of it but we never actually texted each other. I opened up the message. (Italics = Renesmee, Bold = Bella.)

Are you going out with Jacob?

R x

Yeah, how did you find out?

B x

Things get round

R x

Oh ok, lol.

B x

Did you know that I like him?

R x

Oh know, I thought to myself…

Well, yeah, lots of rumours were going around school but I didn't really believe them, I just thought it was stupid gossip.

B x

Well maybe you should start believing rumours Bella because I am so upset, you could have at least asked me if it was ok first, now I am heartbroken, I've liked him for years and then you just turn up and ruin all of my dreams.

R

Sorry

B x

Sorry doesn't mend a broken heart does, you made it break, I hate you Bella Swan. I could easily kill you now.

R

I knew she was angry but when you say things like that, let's just say it is not called for. I saw red.

Listen Renesmee, it's not my fault Jacob fell in love with me and not you, if your that upset go tell Jacob how you fell about him.

B

He won't listen to me. H doesn't see me more than a friend.

R

Well I'm sorry but that's not my problem.

B

Whatever.

R

I didn't text her back after that, just calmed myself down. I needed to see Jake, Beth, Leah and Seth what happened, I needed to have a good rant about the situation to release my anger…

Hope you liked it, I love this chapter. Lol! Review please.

Next chapter is going to be called 'Cat fight'.

Hmmmm, wonder what's going to happen it that chapter…
