I Do Not Own Twilight
Previously…..
Love her. The words made me gag and pierced through my heart, but I kept a straight face when I said, "Of course."
I got up and walked away from him to the chair in the corner. He loved her. How could I be so stupid? He would never think of me the way I think of him. This isn't a fairytale, Leah, and you are definitely not a princess. If you were, Jacob would be saying," I love you."
Continuing…..
"What?" Jacob asked and looked at me.
"Nothing."
"I know it's something. What ever happened to telling the truth?"
"It's nothing important, Jacob. Just drop it, please."
He looked away.
"Better to tell me now then for me to find out later, but, oh no, it's okay. It's not my business. I don't need to know what's going on." He stopped and then gave a dramatic sigh. "Even though I did tell you what was wrong with me, but its okay. It's you're life."
"Jerk," I said.
"I said you don't have to tell me." He paused and then added," Even though you should."
"Oh god, Jake, are you really pulling that with me? You aren't going to make me feel bad for not telling you. And besides, you don't want to know what it is."
"I do."
"Trust me. If I were to tell you, you'd say," I didn't really need to know that."
"You don't know what I'm going to say. You're just guessing. Wrong, probably."
"No, I'm pretty sure about this one."
"Whatever, you'll tell me before the end of the day. I know you."
"You know me?"
"Leah, I know you better than anyone else."
"I wouldn't say that. Seth has you beaten by at least two secrets."
"I've been in your head. You can't keep secrets."
"I can if I try hard enough. Do you think that everything you know is everything?"
He didn't respond.
"There are some things you don't know about Jacob Black. And I don't plan on telling you anytime soon."
"We'll see about that." He looked at me. "Now, how about lunch?"
"I'm not cooking."
"Neither am I." He walked over to the door and opened it, motioning me toward it.
"I'll pass."
"Come on, it's the most important meal of the day!"
"That's breakfast you idiot."
"Well, it's still important. Get up."
"No," I said sourly.
"Get up, Leah Clearwater."
"Or what, Jacob Black?"
He was just a blur when he started running and in a second, he had lifted me off the chair and pulled me outside.
"Put me down!" I yelled and hit him.
"Are you going to run?" he asked with a huge grin across his face.
I looked around, deliberating how far I would get before he caught me.
"I'll catch you," he said, guessing my plan. (Edward and Bella "ish" Moment)
"Fine, I won't. Put me down."
He let go and caught my head before I hit the pavement.
I sat up and started punching his arm. It was doing anything.
"You're such a jerk sometimes."
"You're such a baby." He paused and then added, "Sometimes."
"Let's go before I lose my patience."
I walked in front of him, ignoring ever attempt he made to get my attention. To tell you the truth, I kind of liked it.
After lunch……..
I dragged myself back to the room slowly. I had the worst headache and the worst stomachache. I nearly threw up several times. I should have known better than to eat to fast after missing two days of meals.
"I honestly wish I could help you, Leah," Jacob said.
I rolled on to my side when I got on the bed.
"Yeah," I groaned.
"But there isn't much I can do when you won't take anything." He sighed. "It's like you enjoy the pain. Why won't you take anything?"
Because, Jacob, if I take medicine, I guarantee I'll fall asleep. I can't fall asleep because I refuse to dream while Jacob is awake. Who knows what will come out of my mouth! Especially since I started admitting to myself that I like Jacob, it wouldn't be nothing.
"It doesn't help."
"How would you know? You haven't taken anything!"
"I'll be fine."
Then I looked at him. He was fine. How nice for him.
"How come you're not sick?"
"I didn't starve myself while I was away, Leah."
Oh, now don't I feel like a pathetic idiot.
"Well, isn't that nice for you."
"No, it's not. You don't know what it feels like to be able to help someone, but they won't let you."
"Since when does Jacob care how I feel?"
He shrugged. "Since we had to work together."
"I thought I'd never hear that come out of Jacob Black's mouth."
"Ha ha."
I closed my eyes and tried to ignore him. I wasn't feeling tired, but somehow, I fell asleep and was walking around First beach.
"How odd. I know I'm dreaming."
I see Jacob walk over to me and grab my hand.
"You're not dreaming," he said.
"Oh, yeah, I'll definitely believe you."
"Come with me."
He pulls me along beside him as we walk down the beach. The sun is just setting and the sky is an orangey pink.
"It's beautiful," I said to myself.
"It's very beautiful." He then looked at me and added," And so are you."
I felt my eyes grow bigger and my cheeks get hot as I looked at him. Now, I know I'm dreaming. My brain is lying to me. Jacob would never say that!
"Leah, I know you think I love her. I did, but that was before. This is now."
My jaw dropped. I thought I would make the best of it though.
"I love you, Jacob."
"I love you too."
He then looked at the sunset and we both watched as it went down.
I was about to tell Jacob something, but my dream popped all of a sudden and I was back in the hotel room. Jacob was over me, shaking me.
"God, Jake! Get off and stop doing that!"
I pushed him off and sat up.
He sat at the edge of the bed. His expression was blank.
"What?" I asked.
"I heard you," he said and looked at me.
I threw my hands over my mouth and turned to scream into my pillow. Hands pulled me back and Jacob grabbed my face so I would look at him.
"It's okay, Leah. Calm down."
"No!" I yelled and tried to pull away. He just held on tighter.
"Listen, Leah." He sighed and then let go of my face. 'The thing is"
He was just about to finish his sentence, when the phone rang. Which wasn't normal because no one ever calls here. Not even the people that work here.
