This is a short chapter! But just wanted to thank you all from the reviews on the last chapter!

Chapter 35

Spring. It truly was a beautiful season. Even though the weather here sucked I still enjoyed the season. It meant that I was getting closer and closer to Summer which meant no more school. I really could not wait for that.

"So what do you want to do today?" I asked Jacob after waking up next to him. He looked down at me and then sighed before shrugging. For the last past couple of days he had been acting strange. I was not really sure what happened but he went to the beach one day and then he had been acting weird ever since. Actually I did not see him at all that day really. I had this gut feeling that it had something to do with Bella though.

"Jacob, what's wrong? You have acting strange." I spoke sitting up.

"It's nothing."

"Your lying."

"Piper. I don't want to talk about it."

"Why? Does it have something to do with her?" I felt bad just in case she had nothing to do with it but still I couldn't help it. Not really.

"I thought we were past that." Jacob stated still avoiding my question.

"We are but I would still like to know if she has anything to do with your sour mood lately."

Jacob gave me a annoyed look before looking away groaning and then looking back at me. "I don't want to talk about it okay."

"No, not okay. Talk to me."

"No."

"Why? Do you think I am going to get mad."

"You are."

"Did you do something that I should know about?"

"Piper, I did not kiss her or anything like that if that's what your asking me." I was relieved but tried not to show it.

"Just tell me Jake."

"Bella...well...she finally got on the motorcycle and she crashed."

"Is she okay?" Just because I did not like the girl didn't mean that I wanted to see her hurt. Why she would even be interested in riding a motorcycle is beyond me.

"Yeah. She had to get stitches. It was strange though."

"How so?" I asked frowning. Maybe it was just me but I did not really see anything strange about the situation. I mean nothing more than usual.

"She apologized to me for bleeding."

"Well not everyone is good around blood Jacob. I mean maybe she thought that you would like flip out or something."

"It wasn't that." Jacob frowned.

"What was it then?"

"Look Piper I really do not want to talk about this."

"Fine." I huffed and slumped down in my pillows. Not even ten seconds later I could feel Jacob's thumb brush over my cheek.

"I have patrol today." He was lying to me. I knew he just wanted to leave because he did not want to talk about it.

"Okay I get it Jake. You don't have to lie and say that you have patrol."

"Piper can you ever trust me?" Jacob snapped.

"I did trust you and then you broke it!" I sighed calming down some. "Trust is earned, Jacob. You have to give it to get it and when you break someone's trust you don't just magically get it back, okay?"

Jacob looked away annoyed. "Can you just trust me Piper?"

"Can you ever not lie to me!?" I retorted angrily.

"You know what Piper, I don't have time for this right now."

"Fine. Bye Jacob!" I snapped. I watched as Jacob pulled on his shirt and went to my window. He turned and glared at me while I just glared right back before he jumped from my window. I felt bad but not that much.

He was such an ass lately! I did not understand why he couldn't just tell me what was going on. I knew it had something to do with Bella. She was tearing us apart and I was not going to let that happen. I loved him too much to just watch her separate us.

I was not having it.

"So what are you going to do?" Kim asked me as we sat down at a local coffee shop. I was currently drinking hot chocolate and picking at my muffin. I had just told Kim what happened.

I shrugged. "At this point I don't know. Do you think that Jacob has feelings for her?" I asked Kim who immediately looked uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing."

"Kim. I know you well enough to know that you are lying to me right now. Just tell me what's wrong."

"Well I was talking to Jared." I shrugged. "And he really didn't mean to let it slip or anything but he told me about how Jacob thinks of Bella a lot."

I could feel my face frowning in defeat before anger just seethed through me. "I shouldn't have said anything," I heard Kim mutter to herself.

I gave a small smile. "Yes. You should have said something. I am glad that you told me."

"What are you going to do, Piper?" Kim asked me seriously.

"I really don't know Kim. Jacob and I are following apart. Things were starting to get better but lately he has been acting strange and I know that it's because of her but he just continues to lie to me."

"Maybe you should just talk to him and tell him how you feel."

"Yeah because that's going to work." I said annoyed before taking in a deep breath. "Look I'm sorry it's just I am stressed out at the moment."

"Thank god Cheer is over." Kim said smiling.

I laughed. "Yes, thank god. I would not be able to take it. Anyways, enough about me. How are my little munchkins?" I asked.

"The twins are fine. Annoying as ever but fine."

"They are not annoying, they're cute."

"You would say that because you don't live with them. Especially Carole."

"What she do now?"

"She woke me up the other morning jumping up and down on top of me asking me to take her and Lilly out to breakfast since Mom and Dad were out."

I quirked my eyebrow. "Did you end up taking them to breakfast though Kim?"

She did not look at me but she started smiling. "Yes. Jared and I did."

"Speaking of Jared. How are things going between the two of you?"

"Great."

"How great?" I grinned.

"Great, really great. Absolutely amazing! He is always at my house now it's amazing."

"Sleepovers?"

"Why do you think my door is locked most of the time?"

I laughed. I was happy for Kim. If anyone deserved to be happy it was her. Jared better be treating her right or I would happily kick his ass. At this moment I was ready to kick the ass of, Jacob Black.
