Chapter 13 – Repercussions EPOV

The past few days have been heaven...and hell. I was euphoric at being in my love's good graces once again...but I could not help feeling guilty at her horrific injuries. I had not seen them with my own eyes as she had tried very hard to ensure I never would see them. But unfortunately I had seen them through my sister's eyes. I had been waiting on the edge of the forest for Alice to change her dressings and felt heartbroken as I watched, through Alice's eyes, her explore her injuries. If I was human I would have died from this pain and regret. I saw her sit down and cry and heard Alice understand in her thoughts that it was because I had seen it...and not because she was in pain.

I tried my hardest to be there for her as a friend...but it was hard. It took everything I had not to hold her in my arms and kiss her passionately. I knew from Alice and I saw it every time I looked into her eyes that Bella loved me. But I had to wait for her to be ready.

I was brought out of my thoughts by my love, walking slowly towards me. I hugged her gently and opened her door for her. I held her hand the entire way to school. When we reached the parking lot I felt her tense, I rushed to help her out and whispered in her ear. "It's okay my love, I'm here". I couldn't help but feel 'dazzled' as Bella used to put it, as she smiled up at me with love in her eyes. Luckily I had driven a bit slower to make certain that the parking lot was empty of most students. Bella seemed to relax a little until-

"BELLA!"

I tensed; I saw Bella blush and groan as Emmett ran up to us at human pace. She smiled.

Edward she is nervous and wary. I looked at Jasper and nodded in thanks before turning to Emmett and giving him a warning look. He skidded to a stop in front of us.

Oh...right, sorry bro...Gentle.

He walked to Bella slowly and gave her a gentle hug. She sighed and hugged him back.

"Thanks Emmett"

I'm so glad my little sis is alright! He had a wide grin plastered on his face as he let her down and she turned to Rosalie and Jasper.

"Hi Bella, I'm glad you're okay, it's good to see you again"

I'm so glad she is okay. I smiled at this and noticed Emmett was too.

My two fave girls getting along. I suppressed a chuckle at this and noticed Jasper walk over and hug Bella.

"Bella, I'm so glad you are okay, welcome back"

Edward, it's okay, she is just really happy. But you may want to leave now before it gets too much and I start crying. He chuckled internally as he pulled away.

"Come on guys, let us go or we shall be late" I stated as we said goodbye and walked towards the building. I was staring at Bella's face and wondered why she went from smiling to confusion? I would have to ask later.

It was hell being without Bella for a few short hours. But those hours felt like years. I was watching her through everyone else's thoughts and felt her pain as she was interrogated by Jessica. Not only about the attack but about our surprise return and...Our, (hopefully) relationship.

The bell went; Alice and I got up to go to lunch. I couldn't wait to see Bella again. I was stopped short in my thoughts by none other than Mike Newton. He was talking about my Bella. I could hear him in front of me bragging...and lying.

"Yea, she was so distraught! Until I started looking after her! We went out a few times and-

He was cut short by my growl, he turned and his eyes were terrified once he had noticed it was me behind him. His inappropriate thoughts were still in my head, bringing the monster deep down to the surface. Alice rolled her eyes and left.

I'll tell Bella for you, don't be long Mr. Green eyed monster.

I turned back round to see Newton leaving and hastily followed. I managed to get in front of him quickly and turned to face him.

"Hey, Mike" I smiled at him, showing him my very dangerous teeth. He seemed to get the message.

"He...hey Edward, listen...back there-

"I do not wish to hear where your motivation came from saying such things Newton, but I would like to think that maybe you will not go saying things about Bella which are not true again, understand?" He nodded weakly and I turned to leave but before I entered the cafeteria I could hear Alice.

Edward DO NOT OVEREACT! I wondered what she was talking about but as I got to the exit into the parking lot I saw it.

The scene was set in front of me, Bella, Alice and four of the Quileute tribe. I could see in Alice's thoughts that she was trying not to rip Jacob apart but why? What were they doing here? That is when I saw it.

"Bells...I needed to see you, I'm so sorry...I...You will never know how bad I feel...I beg you, please forgive me. I will always regret what I did...I...I" I didn't really hear what Jacob was saying but I saw in his head what he was saying sorry for.

**Jacob's Memory begins**

Bella gave Jacob an angry look and turned to make her way back to a house. He caught up with her easily and caught her by the hand to pull her into his chest. Her touch sent a shock through his system.

(I don't care if she stinks of leech, I'll make her mine)

"C'mon Bells, you know I'm sorry, pleaseee forgive me?" He looked at her with a pout and she grinned at him. This made him extremely happy.

"Oh okay, but-

He placed his lips on hers without letting her finish. She placed her hands on the back of his neck.

(Finally a reaction, she obviously wants me too!)

This brought a small growl from my chest, I could see she did not want this at all and I became angrier as I continued to watch the scene.

While his left hand was on her cheek, his right was on her hip and he slid it up to her waist pulling her shirt up. He was thinking about how good it felt. Bella's eyes shot open and she slapped him across the face. He dropped her instantly.

"Count yourself lucky that you are a werewolf, otherwise I would have broken your jaw!" She snarled at him and turned to walk off.

I suppressed a chuckle at Bella's threat.

He gave chase and spun her around.

(What, I'm so confused? She didn't pull away last week?)

"Now wait a minute Bells-"

"No Jacob! How dare you...without my permission!" She was bright red with anger. His face suddenly became angry and she flinched.

"I bet you wouldn't stop your beloved bloodsucker!" Bella stared at him in shock.

"This has nothing to do with Edward! We are not even back together! We are just friends-

I flinched at this statement but was glad that she had told him to stop.

"FOR THE MOMENT!" She flinched and moved away from him. He could see her cell phone buzzing in her pocket but she did not answer it.

"I mean c'mon Bella, admit it you were using me until he came back weren't you?" She gasped at this.

"Jake! You know how much I care for you! How can you even suggest that?" He could see tears forming in her eyes but he was too far gone to notice.

"I LOVE YOU BELLA! Is it not enough?" There was a trace of sadness in his voice. Deep in his heart this was all he wanted...to be loved by her just like the leech was.

"Jake...I love you", he smiled and looked up at this, "but my love for Edward is eternal and can never be replaced, I'm so sorry but I have to be honest".

Through his thoughts I could feel him shaking violently and could see the shock on her face, she did not believe he could hurt her.

"Jake, wha-"

Before she could finish he phased – thoughts only consumed with sadness and hate he lunged for his prey catching her face before his claws settled and travelled down her back. Before he could strike again, the giant black wolf tackled him to the ground. He realised what he had done and succumbed to the blackness.

**Jacob's Memory ends**

Before I could gather my thoughts I let out a roar so hate filled I saw my Bella flinch. I ran so fast I was in front of her holding her arms before she had turned fully around. Luckily there was no human in the vicinity to witness my exhibition. The heat coming off Bella's body and her heart pounding in her chest sang to me and at that moment I was scared. Not for Jacob Black who I desired dead...but because the monster within me had come out to play and rejoiced in my moment of weakness. I could not control him for long...and Bella's blood sang to me more than ever.

Uh-oh...peeks from behind imaginary Edward =p

What you think? I was deeply worried about showing the memory and do not know if I did it in the best way? Let me know anyways

Another cliffy for you =p
