Disclaimer: I own nothing; the plot is the only thing that is mine.

I was really nervous about this but figured I needed to talk to him.

"Sure Jacob, what did you want to talk about?"

"Actually Bella, I want to talk to you, alone."

I could feel Edward stiffen around me; he didn't like the idea of me talking alone with Jacob after the few things I told him.

"Sure Jake, we can talk alone."

I turned at look at Edward reassuring him it would be alright but the pain in his eyes told me of the worry he had.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"I'll be in the other room, if you need me shout and I'll come running."

I leaned up and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

"I love you"

"I love you too."

I watched Edward as he walked out of the kitchen and into the next room where Charlie and Billy were watching the game although i'm sure he was sitting right next to the door so he could hear our conversation. Normally this would irritate me, but I didn't mind so much when I know he's only doing it because he cares about me.

"So Jake, what did you want to talk about?"

"So who is that?"

"That's Edward Cullen, my boyfriend."

"Boyfriend?"

"That's what I said Jake, you ok with that?"

"Well all this time I thought you were just kidding when you said you had a boyfriend. Now I see it and really would rather not have."

"I'm sorry Jake. I told you I wasn't interested though. I'm glad you can finally see though I wasn't joking."

"So you and Edward are serious though?"

"Yes Jake."

"So there is no chance you would want to break up and get with me?"

"Jake, honestly I want you to know I love you. The problem is I love you like a brother and that is really the only way I will ever love you."

"And you love him."

"Yes I love Edward, I love him with all my heart. I don't know what I would do without him, he's my other half. My soul mate and I know he loves me to."

I said that last part loud enough that I knew Edward would hear me. Like on cue though he walked back in the kitchen and I knew he had heard me. He wrapped his arms around me again and looked Jacob right in the eyes.

"I love Bella very much and would do anything for her. You should know Jacob that I will do anything to protect Bella and that involves making people understand that she is mine and nobody else's."

I looked up and saw Alice coming down the stairs.

"Hey Bells supper smells amazing, when is it going to be ready?"

"Soon Ali, I just have to wait for the garlic bread."

I looked at her and the quick silence that we shared she seemed to know what I needed from her because in the next second she was taking Jacob upstairs.

"Alice i'm not done talking to Bella yet."

"Yes you are, besides its time to talk with me, any cute girls on the reservation?"

I turned around and looked at Edward with what I knew was curiosity burning in my eyes as I could see it in his.

"I'm yours am I?"

"Yes, and I will fight anybody that will try to steal my soul mate and other half."

I blushed a very deep red. The only thing that saved me was the oven beeping saying that my garlic bread was ready.

I started to turn away but got stopped by a set of arms that locked me in Edward's grasp.

"Bella don't turn away. I know that you know I heard you talking with Jacob."

"Edward I need to take dinner out of the oven before it burns."

Edward instead turned around and took both the lasagne and the garlic bread out of the oven for me and then turned and faced me again.

"Bella I need to know did you mean all of that?"

"Yes Edward I did. I meant every word of it; I love you so much that words cannot describe it. Without you beside me I feel like half of me is missing. I really don't know how I would be able to handle anything without you. I don't know if you love me that much or in that way but I need you to know that is how I feel about you."

"Isabella, you don't think I love you as much? Bella I love you so much that it hurts, I believe you when you say that when were not together it makes you feel like part of you is missing, so much that I feel the exact same way."

I just leaned forward and hugged him so hard knowing that I couldn't be happier right now. I felt Edwards hands cup my face and leaned in for a kiss that I granted him. His tongue caressed my bottom lip begging for entrance into my mouth which I quickly granted. Our tongues danced for what felt like forever we finally pulled apart for air, just as we were about to go back in for a second time when Alice and Jacob came down the stairs ruining the moment.

"Oh gosh Bella i'm so sorry."

At least I know Alice regrets walking down the stairs. I know Jacob didn't really mind though. I'm sure he actually enjoyed it with the look on his face, satisfaction. I just really hope that he understands that I never want to leave Edward.

"Don't worry Alice, I was just about to call you, dinner is ready."

I walked around the corner and told Charlie and Billy the same thing and watched as the quarter ended signalling the end of the game. Good timing on my part I think.

Dinner went over alright and soon the Blacks and Edward left. He said if he didn't leave soon his mother would have his neck. I loved him too much for that to happen so I let him leave but not before promising to see me in the morning.

I did the dishes with Alice then went to climb into my bed. I was having alot of trouble falling asleep though, I just kept replaying our dinner conversation over in my head wondering if Charlie was going to change his mind about Edward.

"So Bella are you going to introduce me to your friend?"

"Sure, sorry Billy, this is Edward Cullen."

"Well hi Edward, so I take it you're a close friend of Bella's?"

"You can say that."

"Billy, Edward's my boyfriend."

"Oh"

Billy looked at Charlie with the look I never wanted to see. He looked at us sad then looked at Edward with such hatred in his eyes that I saw regret in even Charlie's eyes. I guess everybody but me planned on me being together with Jacob.

"So Edward, you and Charlie's daughter, you're going to take care of her right?"

"Yes sir,"

He looked at Charlie with so much love in his eyes that I really hoped he would understand.

"Chief Swan I love your daughter so much, I would never let anything happen to her."

"And dad I do love Edward as much as he loves me. I don't know what I would do without him."

Charlie looked at Edward and then at me and I saw hate and despise in his eyes. I was terrified he would stand up right then and turn purple before shouting at Edward to get out of his house and never come near me again.

Instead he turned to us and just said he hopes it works out between us and to be careful.

Dinner ended and I started to clean up when I felt arms on me pushing me back to the table.

"Just sit love, I'll clean up for you."

Then Edward started to clean off the table and put all of the dishes in the sink for me and then turned to look at me;

"Bella, i'm really sorry love, but I have to get going before my mother wants to kill me for being late."

"We should get going to, Bells, Charlie have a good night."

I grabbed hold of Edwards's hands and wouldn't let go of them.

"Have a good night Billy, Jacob."

"Bella love, I really have to go. I don't want to get on my mother's bad side. I'll see you before school tomorrow though."

"Alright, you promise to be here?"

"I promise."

I hadn't even realized we had started to walk and now we were standing in front of the Volvo.

"Night Bella, I love you."

"I love you to."

He bent down and gave me a kiss before getting into his car and driving away. I turned around and saw Jacob standing there.

"Jacob, I thought you left."

"My dad's waiting for me in the truck. He knows I need to talk to you again so he doesn't mind waiting."

"Alright Jacob, let's talk."

"Were you serious about all the things you guys said in the kitchen?"

"Yes Jacob, I love him with all my heart and he truly loves me."

"I love you too Bella."

"Jacob we've gone over this, I don't love you back. Not in the way you want at least."

"Alright Bella, but you should know that I will be fighting for you, and when he hurts you I'll be waiting in the shadows to come and get you."

Then he ran and got into his truck and they drove down the street.

So now i'm lying in my bed wondering what Jacob was talking about. Was he serious when he said that he would be watching me in the shadows? Did Charlie want to kill us for admitting we loved each other? Did Billy want to kill me for choosing another man other than his son?

I know, I know cliffhanger. But what did you think? I thought we could introduce more of Jacob and the one we saw in the book to the story. If you have any ideas of anything else that you want to happen let me know, I have the plot lined out but I can still incorporate ideas. As before all those that review will continue to get previews as well!!!
