Chapter 12: The Best Holiday
Chloe's POV
I sat in the airport bouncing my knee up and down in anticipation. Faye and John had stopped me from calling Jake for the last five days, only letting me text him to say hello so he didn't worry. Ever since the tickets arrived, I had been high as a kite, hardly sleeping from excitement and grinning like the Cheshire Cat. Leanne even suggested tranquilisers when I bounced into her room at six in the morning one day. I really was like a little kid at Christmas
I tried not to let the memories of the last time I was at the airport get in the way of my happiness. This was going to be the best holiday ever. A grin spread across my face as the announcements were shouted throughout the building.
"Boarding call for Seattle"
I grabbed my bags and started towards the doors, not even checking if the others were behind me.
"Chloe! Slow down! There's an OAP back here!" yelled Faye.
"Oh, sweetie, that's not a very nice thing to say about yourself" said John with a sympathetic smile.
"I was not talking about myself you old fogie!" said Faye, shoving John with her elbow.
"Mrs Turner! You are a menace to society" shot back John before bursting out laughing.
"Hurry up the both of you before Chloe blows up!" laughed Leanne and I slapped her playfully.
The flight couldn't have gone slower if it had tried. I really did try to focus on the film playing on the tiny screen but it was boring. And I really did try and read the book I packed, but none of the words were making any sense in my head. All I could think about was Jake. I wondered if he had changed at all.
"Stop drooling" said Leanne hitting my leg. I glared at her.
"I was not drooling" I said adamantly. Leanne raised her eyebrow at me, a smirk on her face.
"You so were. Was it Jake? You always space out when you think about him"
"That's not my fault! Jake's amazing!" I said defending my gorgeous, stunning, amazing, drool worthy- ok I'll stop there, and admit to myself... I was drooling a little bit.
"So you tell me every single time" she said rolling her eyes before plugging her headphones back in and going back to the film.
I sighed and curled up on the seat trying to catch a little bit of sleep. My eyes just didn't want to shut though. Every time I tried to glue my eyelids together, they would snap open again. I huffed a little breath and craned my neck to see Faye and John in the row behind.
"How much longer?" I asked impatiently.
"Just half an hour, don't worry" said John with a smile.
I nodded and turned back to the front. I looked at my watch and studied the second hand which seemed to drag on every movement. I nearly passed out from happiness when the pilot said we were going into land.
We were staying at some hotel in Port Angeles. Apparently John had some business to sort out and that was the best place to stay. I was not complaining. It was only a short drive to La Push from there and I planned on seeing Jake as much as possible. I'd been told he didn't know I was coming, hence why I wasn't allowed to call him in case I blabbered about it.
Leanne had to physically restrain me from climbing onto the luggage carousel in a desperate attempt to claim my case as fast as possible. The ride to Port Angeles wasn't much better. I tried to climb into the front seat several times earning my first proper telling off from John and Faye. I stayed quiet in the back for the last 20 minutes but my eyes were glued to the dark greens that sped past before the lights of the city filled my gaze. As soon as I got the case to the room I was bouncing on the spot.
"Can I go? Please? I'll be back before midnight, I swear" I begged as I followed Faye around the apartment like a little puppy. Faye stopped and seemed to think about it for a while.
"Fine, but drive safe" she said with a wink, "and I want to be meeting this Jake at some point as well"
I only just heard the last part as I raced from the room and down to where the car was parked. My heart was beating rapidly in my chest and I couldn't wipe the smile off my face as the car roared down the highway towards my favourite person.
I pulled in at Jake's house and cut the engine. I saw the front door crack open an inch and I leapt from the truck.
"Chloe? Is that you?" said Billy Black, opening the door fully. I nodded enthusiastically and gave him a massive hug.
"Do you know where Jake is?" I asked in excitement, "oh, and how are you?"
"Straight to the point, I like it. He's down at the beach with some of the boys and I'm fine, how are you? And what are you even doing here?" he replied with a chuckle.
"Oh I am just fine! It's summer break, we're staying in Port Angeles" I said sunnily, "umm, I don't mean to be rude, but can I go?"
"Sure thing! I know he'll be very happy to see you" said Billy before I charged back to the car.
The brakes squealed as I parked at the beach. I searched for a while before seeing the flickering of a bonfire. My face was aching from grinning as I sprinted towards it and I was very out of breath. I've never exactly been an exercise freak and I had been doing a lot of running around this evening.
My eyes widened as a ball flew towards me out of the darkness. I did a very unladylike dive backwards but ended up getting hit by the ball anyway. I cursed under my breath and scrambled to my feet, the ball in my hands. I saw a figure running towards me.
"Sorry! My friend's an-"
Jake stopped dead in his tracks about four feet away from me. His mouth dropped open and his eyes widened.
"Hi" I said in a weak voice, waving randomly at him.
He looked just as breathtaking as ever. His black hair shining in the dim light and his deep, chocolate brown eyes brightening by the second. I was definitely drooling.
"Chloe?" he breathed out. I nodded slightly, shrugging and staring at the floor feeling a bit foolish.
"Hellooo" I said nervously, rolling the ball in my hands.
Jake took a slow step forward and I felt like I was melting just by being in his presence. I had missed his familiar warmth and the amazing scent of just him. I couldn't hold myself together any longer. I flung myself against him, wrapping my arms tightly around his neck and burying my face in his shoulder. I nearly cried with happiness when I felt his arms circle around my waist.
"What are you doing here?" he said softly in my ear.
"I can leave if you like" I mumbled against his bare skin. His beautiful, soft, perfect skin. Drool activated.
"No" he said loudly in my ear, his warm breath making my hair tickle my neck, "please don't leave me again"
"Never" I sighed against him. I never wanted to let go ever again. Then perfect moment number one of my holiday was ruined by that twit... I mean... that delightful specimen of a person otherwise known as Paul Lahote.
"Hey Jake, who's the new bird?" he yelled jogging over.
"Piss off Lahote" I grumbled pulling Jake closer to me.
"Chloe! So nice of you to join us! You didn't need to leave though, I know I'm totally irresistible" he said ripping me away from Jake and crushing me in a hug.
"In your dreams" I wheezed out as my ribcage protested to the hug.
"Always" he said with a wink as he let me go and turned to the bonfire, "hey guys, come see who's returned"
I gazed back at Jake who had the most adorable expression on his face. He looked as though he had just been given the gift of life or something. I smiled softly at him, biting my bottom lip as he smiled back. I stepped towards him but got lifted off my feet again.
"It's the runaway!" yelled Embry as he span me round.
"Put me down muscle man" I demanded, slapping his arms.
I eventually made it back to the ground and staggered slightly but ended up with Jared instead of Jake. I whined pathetically as he crushed me as well.
"Aww come on! I'm not that bad!" said Jared as I pushed against him.
"But you're not Jake!" I whined, going bright red as I realised what I said, "I mean... err... it's so great to see you Jared?"
"It's ok, I know when I'm not wanted" said Jared shoving me lightly in the direction of Jake.
"Sorry Jared, I'll make it up to you" I said before being reunited with my favourite person.
I watched as the three boys returned to their game further down the beach and then I turned to Jake. We just gazed into each other's eyes for ages. To be honest I could stare at him forever, he was just that amazing. It was hard to think that the last time I actually saw him, I had yelled like an idiot at him and told him that I never wanted to see him again. I was a complete idiot that day, but now, now I had the perfect boy standing right there with me and I couldn't be happier in this moment.
I couldn't take the waiting any longer. I leaned against him and our lips connected. It was as though fireworks had exploded inside me, cliché I know, but it was exactly like that. I couldn't believe I had gone so long without being with Jake. My fingers curled into Jake's hair as he deepened the kiss and I felt his hands move against my sides. I had to break away before I busted a lung and I grinned at Jake. He rested his forehead against mine and I closed my eyes as his sweet breath hit my face. I unlocked my arms from his neck and wrapped them around his waist instead, resting my cheek against his chest.
"I love you Jacob Black" I sighed.
"I love you so much more Chloe" he said quietly, his head resting on top of mine.
This really was going to be the best holiday ever.
A/N: Hope everyone enjoyed this! I can't seem to stop updating my stories at the moment!
