Ben Howard - Small Things

All in my mind

I walked down Mayflower Road again

The wailing sound
Echoes from the park seems so absurd
The bird stained towers
I knew it would but I can't shake the sting
Can't spend my time on everybody else
If buildings fell at least we'd be in matrimony
I can't control the words
Kaleidoscope inside my head

Has the world gone mad
Or is it me?
All these small things they gather round me
Gather round me
Is it all so very bad?
I can't see
All these small things they gather round me
Gather round me

Saw the police
Screaming something trivial like
'Keep the peace'
The world moves on and
You can't shake the sound
I know she's home
Waiting on somebody holding life
All in my mind the anvil and
The weight upon my back

Has the world gone mad
Or is it me?
All these small things they gather round me
Gather round me
Is it all so very bad?
I can't see
All these small things they gather round me
Gather around me
And I can't see my love

Has the world gone mad
Or is it me?
All these small things they gather round me
Gather round me
Is it all so very bad?
I can't see
All these small things they gather round me
Gather around me

Anna's POV:

After we had kissed over and over again we heard a knock on our door and we quickly made some space between each other and began the search for some clothes.

"Yes," Jacob answered whoever was on the other side of the door.

"Hurry on up, son. We have company," I heard Billy's voice on the other side of the door. He sounded quite upset. I walked across the room, slowly getting pulled back to reality out of my kissing frenzy that had made me all dizzy and uncoordinated, and opened up a drawer filled with clothes. I pulled out a pair of dark blue jeans and a light grey, tight shirt that showed off some cleavage. I even made some effort and put on a golden watch and some cheap golden rings that'd certainly turn my fingers green during the day but I didn't care. Then I smiled towards Jacob and gave him a small peck on the cheek.

"Do you wanna occupy the bathroom first or should I?" I asked him since he had company waiting.

"You go ahead, I can wait," he said with a smile. He was still a bit dizzy it seemed and had only found a pair of socks that he held in his hands as he stood in the middle of the room, just looking around confused.

"You should rest some more," I advised him before heading over to the bathroom to freshen up. I took a wee and then I washed my hands and face off and bushed my teeth before I combed my bleached hair back and put it up in a big messy bun. Then I gently placed on a cute, white bandana and pulled some hairs loose from the bun in the front and then went straight over to make up. I did a quick, cute look with some foundation to even out my skin and some blush on the cheeks, then I filled in my brows, put on some mascara around my green eyes to darken and thicken my lashes and slapped on a gorgeous lipstick in a sheer pink hue that tinted my lips, making them look irresistible and shiny.

Looking good!

Why, thank you!

I headed out back to our room to tell Jake it was ok for him to use the bathroom now, he was laying on his bed looking at me with a wryly grin as I stepped inside the room.

"Come here gorgeous, why do you do that every morning?"

"What? Go to the bathroom? That's quite a personal question, don't you have any boundaries Jacob?" I joked with him and went over to straddle him as I giggled and looked down at him, giving him all I got when it came to being sexy. Probably not pulling it off as elegantly as I thought in my head. I sucked in his lower lip and let my fingertips scratch lightly along his bare chest.

"No why do you put on make up?" He asked me, muffled as his lip was still in my mouth. I let go of it and looked at him as I raised my perfectly shaped brow.

"Oh please stop it, don't give me the whole inner beauty bull crap. I put on make up because I think it's fun, I express who I am and I love to look nice and this is how I feel beautiful. Don't you think my make up skills are good? Is that the problem?" I questioned him with a grin.

"No, you always look beautiful baby, with or without make up," he said to me softly then he was the one sucking in my bottom lip and I sunk down into his arms.

"We gotta stop, I have to get out there and if we don't stop they'll have to wait at least an hour," he said with a mischievous grin and pulled away from me to get dressed. He put on a pair of dark blue jeans, a model baggier than mine, and a black t-shirt then he took my hand and began to walk out towards the kitchen. I pulled my hand out of his and shook my head, "no, not so mom can see," I whispered and he made a troubled face. Now that the barrier between us had been torn down it seemed as if he couldn't get enough of me.

As if you could get enough of him?

If he didn't have company I'd probably be all over him right now, still.

When we came into the kitchen Jacob froze up when he noticed a man sitting by the kitchen table. It was a man around Billy's age with dark brown, going on grey, hair and a big moustache in the same shade. His brown eyes looked troubled as he looked up at us from where he sat, my mom sat beside him with a hand on his shoulder.

"Anna, come and say hello to Charlie. He is a dear friend of Billy and his daughter, well, me and Billy attended to her gorgeous wedding that I told you about."

"Hello," I said and stretched out my slender hand towards the man and sat down across my mom. He grabbed my hand and forced a smile, "it's nice to finally meet you Anna, I've heard so much about you. I think it would be good for my daughter to have a friend like you," he said and looked even more troubled every time his daughter was mentioned. What a strange thing to say, a friend like me? What kind of a friend would I be?

A pretty rad one. And you can also be sort of crazy, occasionally.

Fits the bill, but why does his daughter need that kind of a friend?

Beats me?

"I'd love to meet Bella some day," I said politely.

"I hope you will once she is back home. It has been a long time since I saw you, Jacob. How are you?" Charlie asked him.

"Yes it sure has, I am better than ever Charlie but have you heard from Bella?" Jacob asked worryingly.

"Yes, she said that they had to extend their trip, that she wasn't feeling well and it seems like she caught a bug and they want to wait until she feels better until they travel," Charlie explained with his deep voice, his eyes were tired and red.

"She's sick?" Jacob asked as if he didn't believe him. Why would someone lie about something like that. It seemed as if the same thought went through Charlies mind.

"Yes, she told me not to worry but she sounded, I don't know - off." It sounded as if his voice was about to crack, he was truly worried for his daughter.

Jacob clenched his jaws and looked down in the table. He seemed to be taking this really seriously too.

"She will be fine, Charlie," my mother comforted him and continued stroking his back, "come on now let's have some breakfast, everyone." She had placed out plates for everyone. Billy sat on the short end of the table next to Charlie and Jacob. There were raspberry lemonade in a pitcher with lots of ice and lemon slices and different flavoured pancakes that my mom had made and a big tub of maple syrup, all of it placed on our big table. I loaded my plate with lots of strawberry and dark chocolate pancakes and poured a small amount of the golden, very potent flavoured, syrup over them. Jacob had went for the banana and cinnamon pancakes and poured loads of the sweet goo on his pancakes before he began to shovel them into his big mouth. It seemed as if he were in a big hurry as he ate faster than ever before, he didn't even chew them twice.

A/N: Okay, now I have a huge writers block but it will be fine, I'll get rid of it hopefully because these last posts has just been coming out at such a fast pace which I love. I have written one of Alice's visions, I'm thinking of uploading that as well but it contains spoilers so it will be a while until I can do so. It will be a surprise ;) Thanks for the reviews, glad you're happy they finally kissed, so am I, I'll tell you :D Please keep the reviews coming and give me your thoughts, it's what keeps me going! Take care!
