In Loving Memory of Dav Matthews, Gone Too Soon. 2/17/11.
It had been 4 months since I last saw Bella, 4 months too long. I needed to see her. I decided to call her. After the 1st ring, I heard a voice that I hadn't heard in awhile, but had needed to hear so badly.
"Hello?"
"Hey bella"
"Jacob?"
"Yeah, it's me. I need to ask you something, bella"
"Sure"
"Are they still there?" I already knew the answer but I wanted to talk to her. I didn't expect her to answer. I hadn't thought of what to say.
"Yeah, they're still here. Why? Is something wrong Jake?"
"No, no. I was just asking."
"Oh. Ok. Ummm…Can I ask you something?"
"Sure, sure"
"Would you come visit me? Please!"
"Err… I'm not sure if that is such a good idea Bella."
"Please Jake, I need to see you."
I couldn't say no. I had promised her that I'd never leave, that I'd always be there for her. And I had already broken it once.
"Okay, I'll be there in 30 minutes."
"Thank you"-click
I jumped on my motorcycle and headed for Bella's house. When I pulled up to the driveway, the retched smell hit me like a brick wall. I sat infront of her house, shaking for a few minutes. I knew I had to control myself for Bella & calm down so I didn't ruin things again. When I was calm enough, I got off my bike & walked to the front door. Bella opened the door before I could knock.
"Jake!"
"Bella"
I looked at her. She seemed flushed. And her belly was huge. But she still looked like my Bella. I stood there for a minute in shock, before I hugged her.
Bella's pov:
Over the past 4 months my senses have grown stronger & when Jacob called. I was eager to see him. I invited him over and he said okay. When started to smell something funny, I ran to the door. I opened it right as Jake was walking up the steps.
"Jake"
"Bella"
He stood there for a second, frozen in shock before he gave me a strong & long hug. Then when he let go and followed me inside and he looked at me and said, "Bella, don't take this the wrong way, but you've gotten so big since the last time I saw you." I laughed.
"Well, that's what happens when you're pregnant with triplets!"
"Tri….Wow!"
"That's what I thought."
"So, uh, where are all your bloodsuck-" I glared at him with my hands on my hips.
"Jake…" I hated when they used such horrible names for each other. They were rude & offensive. "Sorry-I mean the Cullen's." I smiled.
"They're out, hunting."
"All of them?" he made a disgusted face.
"Well, Rosalie & Emmett are nearby getting something for me." I looked up to see the disgusted look written clearly across his face. I'd forgotten that he didn't know that the thirst I had was for blood.
"For you?" I could see his hands starting to shake. He made them into fists and took a deep breath, as he scrunched his nose. "Why?" he asked
"Well I'm thirsty, and it's more for the kids" I placed my hand on my belly. "It's really the only craving I have with them. I have times when I'll be specific and want mountain lion, or deer, it really just depends on my mood."
"What, no human?" He said sarcastically.
"No Jake, I'm not a monster," he scoffed, I'm not sure why, then shock his head.
We sat on the couch and talked, his smell it sorta burned my nose
"Jake, don't take this the wrong way but you smell funny"
"So do you Bella" then he laughed "I guess it's because you have three half-vampires in you." I chuckled and bit my lip.
"Yeah I guess so, umm Jake I need to tell you something"
"What is it?" that's when I heard and smelt Rosalie and Emmett nearing the house. I could hear them as they started running faster; my guess is they smelt Jacob.
When Rosalie and Emmett entered the house running full speed, Jacob stood up, his hands in fists to his sides.
"WHAT is this DOG doing here bella?" Rosalie growled in a slight crouch.
"Get outta here you mutt!" Emmett said, holding the bottles of blood in one hand in a crouch like Rosalie.
"Hey don't call him that, I invited him over here" I said
"Why?" Emmett asked
"Because he means a lot to me. And he's like my brother"
"So you're comparing me to this dog now? Thanks Bella" Emmett said in a sad, sarcastic voice.
"No Emmett, the relationship between you and me is VERY different, trust me. Why can't you guys just get along?" I yelled.
"It's complicated Bella." Jake said
"I have to agree with the puppy on this one, it's just too complicated" Emmett said
"Explain it then!" I said angrily
"Gee'z Bella, you're mean when you're thirsty" Emmett said handing me a bottle of blood. I asked for grizzly today and he was more than happy to get me some.
"Shut up" I said sorta embarrassed and stuck my tongue out at him.
"Are you really going to drink that?" Jacob asked as he made a disgusted face.
"Watch me" I opened the bottle and took a big gulp. I looked at Jacob, and even I could see he turned 6 shades of green under his tan skin.
"MMM that's better, thanks Emmett" I saw Jake run out the house ready to puke.
"Man, what a puppy" Emmett said then busted into a roar of laughter.
"Emmett!" I yelled, trying to sound angry, but failed as I bit my lip holding back a laugh.
