Bella POV

Edward jumped to the side, and Jake went hurdling onto the floor. Edward crouched into his hunting position and waited while Jacob got off the floor. I could hear Rachel gasp. I opened my mouth to scream, but my scream was muffled by the ferocious snarl that made its way from Jacob's mouth. He and Edward were now circling each other in similar tensed, crouches.

I turned around to face Edward's family. Esme was staring at Edward with wide worried eyes, Carlisle was deep in thought; probably thinking of an effective way to stop the fight that was now happening, Jasper was tensed and looked ready to bolt for the door, Alice was shaking her head and looking at her feet in disappointment, Rosalie was scowling at Jacob, and Emmett was rolling up the sleeves on his shirt; ready to jump in and attack Jacob. It was obvious that I would be the one to break the two fools apart so I quickly ran to my bedroom.

I dug in my closet until I found the blow horn that I had used to wake up Jake last year. I ran into the other room and noticed that Edward and Jacob were now rolling on the floor trying to kill the other one. I couldn't stop the tremor of fear that I felt seeing to two men that I loved fighting like that. I honked the blow horn as loud as I could.

The Cullens and Rachel plugged their ears. Edward and Jacob stopped fighting and covered their ears. Once they were about 10 inches away from each other, I let go of the horn. It dropped to the floor with a loud thud. The room was silent except for the fast breathing of Jacob. Both Edward and Jacob looked up at me with sheepish grins on their faces. I glared at them and put my hands on my hips.

" You know thats pretty sad that it took a blow horn to pull you two imbeciles off of each other." I said icily. They both dropped their heads in shame. I narrowed my eyes at them. Out of the corner of my eye I saw everyone slump their shoulders in relief, and Esme mouthed a thank you to me. I smiled back at her. Then I turned back to the boys.

" You two in my room now." I said before stalking off into my bedroom. I could hear two sets of feet follow me to my room. Once they were in my room, I slammed the door shut and turned to glare at them. They both stood by my bed and hung their heads. I sighed.

" Bella I swear that he lunged at me first!" Edward said quickly. He scowled at Jacob. I narrowed my eyes.

" Now way! Edward totally took the first swipe! I was totally innocent!" Jack retorted.

" Both you shut up!" I snapped. I always found it was easier to be coherent when I was angry. " Why can't you two stop fighting for one second?! Sit!" I yelled. I could faintly hear a muffled snicker from behind the door. Emmett. Edward and Jacob sat on opposite sides of my bed while I towered over them.

" Now, who would like to explain to me why exactly you two began to fight?" I asked in a calmer voice. I saw them both visibly relax at my change of tone. Jake spoke up.

" Well as you know I was waiting for you at the apartment. And then you showed up with the bloodsuckers. And the he started to get all testy and stuff. The next thing I know we're on the floor. " I rolled my eyes. Of course I could always count on Jake to over simplify everything, and somehow blame Edward for everything.

" I suggest you shut your mouth you mongrel or else-" Edward started angrily. I cut him off half way through his threat.

" Edward! " I snapped at him. " Now, why don't we hear the story from your point of view." I began calmly.

" You know the basics of it. We got home to your dorm and Jacob was shouting at you for no apparent reason. And it irritated me to see that dog get mad at you, so naturally I felt the need to intercede. Then Jacob attacked me. Thats all there is to tell." Edward stated arrogantly. Once again I rolled my eyes. Count on Edward to sound completely arrogant when he spoke about Jacob. Jake stood suddenly and glowered at Edward.

" I wasn't shouting at her. I would never do that to Bella. Because I am a loving boyfriend, who doesn't have anger management." Jake said hotly. Edward's eyes flashed with tawny anger. He rose to his feet in one swift motion. Him and Jacob stood the same height.

" What are you implying?! That I wasn't a loving boyfriend to Bella?! That I shouted at her, and had anger problems?!" Edward growled fiercely. I couldn't deny the jump that my heart made when I heard Edward say ' loving boyfriend to Bella'. Jake growled back.

" Yes. Thats exactly what I'm implying leech!" Jake said back in an low, furious voice. Again I saw the raw anger flash in Edward's eyes.

" Well of course the only reason you think that, is because you would like to believe that I am the reason for all of the problems in your relationship. I was a loving boyfriend to Bella and you know it as well as I do." Edward replied. I could tell by the sly grin that spread across his face then, that he was taunting Jacob, by reading his thoughts. I gasped.

" Problems? What problems in our relationship?" I hissed at Edward. He smirked.

" Why don't you ask Jacob , Bella?" Edward said. He kept his eyes focused on Jacob. I slowly turned to face Jacob. I could feel my cheeks flush in fury, as I glared daggers at Jacob, who met my furious gaze for a second then turned away. I stomped up to him and grabbed his shirt collar. Even though I was more than four heads shorter than Jacob, I could still scare him with my temper.

" So we have problems do we?" I spat at him. He flinched away from my grasp. I stabbed my pointer finger in his direction. " Would you care to explain?!" I continued. Jake's eyes widened and he stared at me with a hurt expression.

" Bella, I think you know exactly what I'm referring to. I don't even know who you are anymore! What happened to the sweet, blushing, naive Bella that I fell in love with?! Huh?! She seems to be on vacation, and I don't like the Bella that has replaced her! Now you're mean, sarcastic, you hardly ever laugh, and one top of that, I haven't heard you say ' I love you' to me in forever!

" You stay out almost all night clubbing and going to stupid keg parties, you over work yourself in your classes, you take vacations with your friends with out me, you have almost lost touch with all of your old friends from Forks like Angela, and you never seem to have enough time for your family and... and me. And you know the worst part? You don't even think anything is wrong with you." Jacob hung his head and stared at his feet. I could feel the tears pooling in my eyes.

" Edward, could you give us some privacy?" I asked. I waited until he left the bedroom before I spoke. "Jake-I don't know what you're talking about. I do love you. You know that. I'm sorry that I'm so busy with work and school, but there isn't anything I can do about that. I want to have a good future. I need to keep working and studying if I want to get anywhere in life.

" And as for the thing about me changing. Thats not true. I mean of course I've become more harsh, but thats partly just me maturing. But deep down, I'll always be the same Bella. And for the record, last year me and Rachel went on vacation by ourselves, because you, Embry and the pack all met back in La Push and you all had a little mini reunion, and celebrated the birth of Emily's third child. I never knew that you wanted to go somewhere together by ourselves, just to two of us." I managed to squeak out. I was trying with all of my will to hold in the tears. Jacob looked back up at me with sad eyes.

" Stop making excuses Bella. I think we all know the real reason why you're so cold." He was obviously referring to Edward. " Bells why don't we just take a break for awhile. See other people. I mean we both know that this isn't going to work out if we keep faking and trying to make it work. Why not break it off now and save the pain?" Jacob said softly. I froze. I couldn't breathe. My ears started buzzing. Jake started for the door, but I quickly interceded. Ashen faced, all I could do was stare at him. He leaned down and whispered in my ear.

" Be safe Bells." He whispered in my ear. His warm breath tickled by ear. He then kissed the top of my head and walked out of my bedroom. I watched him walk away from me with a pain stricken expression. I was numb. I couldn't feel my legs. I slowly walked into the living room. Everyone turned to stare at me as I entered the room. Edward was the first one to jump up out of his seat. He ran to my side with exceptional speed. I shook my shoulders.

" Bella? Are you ok? What happened? Did he hurt you?" Edward's anxious voice asked frantically. I could faintly make out what he was saying, but It all sounded buzzed and in the back round of the pain the had over come my body. Rachel was suddenly at my side and was guiding me to a small leather love seat. I sat down, but I couldn't even feel my body. Everyone sat down and looked at me expectantly and anxiously. I stared at them all blankly. Rachel repeated what she had said before.

" Bella what happened with Jake?" My heart tugged at the sound of his name. I opened my mouth and tried to form a coherent sentence.

" He is gone. Jake's gone." I whispered. They all just stared at me. Rachel rubbed my back.

" Oh, Bella, I'm so sorry." Rachel said softly. Alice, Esme, and Rosalie echoed her. As soon as I realized what I had said, I felt it sink in. Like a carving in stone. Jacob and I were no longer a couple. We weren't together. He had broken up with me. All of his words came rushing back and hit me like a tsunami.

As they sunk, in I felt a pain so indescribable that It was hard for me to even breathe. It was the pain, that he was right. What he had said was the truth. I had been a distant monster to him and all the people that I loved. The tears that ached to be released finally cascaded down my cheeks.

Rachel, Alice, Esme, Edward, Emmett, Jasper, and Carlisle all moved me over to the couch and sat around me. They all said comforting words trying to stop my ears no doubt, but I ignored them all. The only person who could stop this pain, this aching in my heart was Jacob. I stood up.

" Please. Just let me be. I need to be alone for awhile." I croaked in a husky voice. It was the first time I had spoken since the tears had come.

I retreated to my room and numbly changed out of my clothes. I walked slowly into the bathroom and started the shower. The scalding hot water did nothing to subside the pain I was in. In fact, It felt more like a punishment; like white hot fire being thrown at me. I changed into a comfy mint green bra and underwear set that I had gotten last year from Mary, and brushed my teeth.

After I had cleaned up, I crawled into bed. All of the lights were off in the room, and I could hear Rachel showering in her bathroom. A small part of my brain noted that the Cullens must have gone left. I curled myself in a small ball and wrapped my blanket around myself, and closed my eyes. Silent tears slid down my face, and quiet sobs racked my body.

Suddenly my window creaked open. I shot up in my bed, and looked into the darkness. I heard someone slide in quietly, and close the window. I was suddenly all too aware of the fact that I was only in my panties. I could make out the shape of a tall man with messy hair. Jacob.

I lunged out of bed and threw myself at the figure. The man froze in surprise than wrapped his arms around my waist. Disappointment coursed through my body as I realized that the arms weren't the warm and welcoming arms of Jacob, but the cold and smooth arms of Edward. I stepped away from him and walked back over to my bed. He followed.

" What are you doing here." I asked. My question came out a little harsher than I expected. Edward flinched. I sighed and flicked on my bedside light. Edward looked just as breathtaking as earlier. Edward looked down at his hands.

" Well I thought that you might need someone to comfort you, but I can see that I was wrong. Excuse me." Edward said stiffly and formally. He stood and began toward the window.

" Wait!" I called after him. He halted, but didn't turn around to face me. " I actually wouldn't mind someone to cuddle with." I said. I surprised myself with my boldness. Edward turned around slowly. He grinned that crooked smile that I dreamed about, and made his way to my bed. I smiled back softly as he took off his shoes and slid in bed gracefully.

I turned off the light once he was under the covers. I noticed that he was wearing flannel PJ pants, and I knew then, that he had been hoping for me to say that. He was cold as and ice cube, but I still felt warm and content in his icy arms. As I drifted to sleep, I noted how right this felt. Just like old times.

Awww! Bella must be a wreck! First Edward shows up, and now Jacob broke up with her! Sorry it has been so long since I updated! I've been super busy with school ( they somehow think it is appropriate to cram in as many things as they can before Thanksgiving. Remind me to never become a teacher T.T) and on top of that, yesterday a brand new president was elected. And much to my pleasure, it is Barack Obama!!!! Yay!

REVIEW ME LOVES!!!
