Edward's Nightmare
Chapter 36: Jacob
Jacob's Point of View
( Night of the Fight)
The first initial pain I felt when the bloodsucker sank his fangs into my flank was nothing compared to the unbearable torture of the venom pulsating through my veins. I could fell something constantly burning, my muscles tightening so tight I couldn't move, here I lay waiting for death in the forest that I had called home for nearly 4 years since I had began the change.
I had phased back not long after I made my escape from Edward, staggering around in the forest. I collapsed to the floor as I could not continue to move anymore, nothing was worth the unbearable pain, almost nothing. The only thing that could be worth this is if Bella would come back to me, which I knew would never happen.
My screams echoing through the dimly light forest, tears shed from my eyes as I was overcome by a stabbing sensation at the centre of my heart.
Red dots filled my vision and I welcomed death with open arms.

After what seemed like decades in darkness the weight seemed to lessen and I could feel my body, once again.
I wasn't in fact dead, but the pain still pulsating through my veins, the stabbing at my heart had subsided it was almost gone completely. According to folk law I had read as a young boy, humans bitten by vampires turn into them. I wonder if this is how it felt to become one, if so why the hell did the vampires let them do it.
Then the realisation hit home, I was half human. Could it be possible that I may be something in between? I groaned at the thought, I don't want to be a vampire or anything related to them. I felt disgust that his venom was constantly moving inside me.
I attempted to move my body, sure enough I managed to toss over in what felt like a car seat. A weird but intoxicating smell filled up my nose, it made me feel a little light headed but it was a pleasant smell.
I opened my heavy eyelids to see Sam, sitting in the driver's seat with his hands clasped on the wheel. My first instinct was to panic I knew Sam didn't have his licence and I did not fancy being smashed into a tree but when I looked ahead of me my panic faded as I could see that Sam could in fact drive.
"Sam..." I mumbled the pressure of my voice scrapping my throat, it was raw and sensitive.
"Jacob you're doing great, were almost there. We'll get you checked out." I didn't hear the last part of what Sam said because it sounded like he was speaking in some weird language. I tossed to look out the window and I saw the hospital sign.
Of course that is where they would take me, Bloody Hospitals. I hadn't been to a hospital since I had visited my mother on her deathbed after her car accident. Hospitals were never a warm place to me, it felt a sort of last destination to me. Like I would never walk out those doors again, the idea frightened me so I vanished it from my thoughts.
The car came to a halt so I reached down and undid the seatbelt, Sam appeared at my door. He opened the door and reached in pulling me up to my feet.
To other people I may have looked helplessly drunk as I stumbled around to find my footing. Sam slung my arm around his shoulders and his arm around mine. We walked over to the pathway where they put me on a stretcher, I whimpered as the pain from moving my stomach became worse.
All I could see now was the ceiling moving past quite quickly; if I wasn't so disorientated I probably would have had motion sickness. A slight prick pained my arm and not long after that, the darkness surrounded me once again.
The pain subsided and I enjoyed the peace that the darkness brought.
Bella's Point Of View
"What shall we do today Bella?" Asked Edward while I ate my scrambled eggs at the kitchen table.
I really wanted to call Billy and see if they had found Jacob yet but I knew mentioning Jacob would pain Edward. I didn't blame Edward for biting Jacob there was nothing else that could have been done.
I sighed, ignoring my conscience, "Let's go to your house, I haven't been over in ages." I said cheerfully.
"You can drive today; your truck needs a work out." He said as his crocked grin graced his face.
I frowned. I hate when he insults my truck.
"Where is your buzz bucket then, you hardly go anywhere without it?" I said with an evil grin.
His mouth dropped and I couldn't help but laugh.
"It's been borrowed by a friend, and don't call her a buzz bucket!" He said his voice growing harsher.
"Her, right. Well I'm done so off we go." I said as I grabbed his hand and dragged him out the door and to my truck.
I felt like someone was watching me, but I knew I was just being stupid so I brushed the thoughts from my head. Besides Edward had better hearing, eyesight and could hear the person's mind, I wasn't in any danger.
The drive to the Cullen house was filled with my CD that Edward had given me at the hospital just yesterday. I decided that it was as good as any to ask Edward about Charlie's request.
"Charlie was wondering if you wanted to come to dinner on Wednesday night."
"I'm not so sure Bella." He admitted.
"He just wants to meet you and thank you for 'taking good care of me'." I retorted.
"I'm not sure about the food part."
"Oh." My mouth popped into an O shape. It had escaped my mind that Edward wouldn't be able to eat with us.
"You could just come over and I dunno just say you're not hungry or you have already eaten." I suggested.
"Yes. Ok I'll come." He said.
When we arrived Alice was waiting outside for us, she must have known we were coming. What didn't she know? I hope she wouldn't tell Edward, I sent her a pleading glance and she nodded.
"Edwarddddd." She yelled as she skipped up to us.
"Yes Alice?" He asked.
"Jasper and Emmett want to see you, there at the baseball field." She chirruped
"I wanted to show Bella something anyway." She said.
I smiled; I hoped it wasn't more clothes.
Edward looked at Alice then back to me, grasping my face he gave me a light kiss on the lips.
"I won't be long." He said as he became a blur to my vision.
Alice put her hand out, she was holding a phone.
"Oh god, thank you so much Alice." I said.
"Shopping trip, Thursday, no excuses." She said slowly, she had thought this out well.
"Yeah sure." I tried to sound enthusiastic.
"Good, come find me when you're done, I'll be in my room." She said as she gracefully skipped up the porch stairs and disappeared into the enormous house.
I know I didn't have long so I decided to call Billy first.
Punching the numbers in, listening to the ringing tone again and again. I hung up, Billy wasn't home.
Billy didn't have a mobile so I decided to give Sam a call.
"Hello?" Asked a warm female voice on the other end of the phone.
"Hi Emily, I was just wondering if they found Jacob yet?"
"Oh Bella, they have been looking since last night. Sam said he would be back by now, I'm starting to get worried." She said.
"I'm sure there okay, probably don't have the best reception in the forests."
I heard a soft chuckle on the other end.
"I miss you Bella, make sure you come visit soon."
"Yeah I'll come see you soon I've actually got to go now."
"See you then, bye bells."
"Bye Emily." I said as I hung up.
It had been six minutes since Edward had left, I only had one number left to call.
I punched in what I could remember of the number, praying that it was right.
"Hello?" I was so happy that I got the number right.
"Hey Seth, its Bella."
"Bells oh it's good to hear from you. You have to come to the next bon fire; they aren't the same without you." Seth said.
"Seth, any news on Jacob?"
"Didn't Edward tell you?" He asked.
"What was Edward suppose to tell me?" I asked, confused.
"They found Jacob, last night. Edward let Sam borrow his car to take Jacob to the hospital." He began.
I felt the furry build up in my body, as much as I disliked Jacob at the moment he was still family. I had known him most of my life, we were best friends. How could Edward keep this from me.
"Is he okay?" My voice frantic.
"Calm down Bells, he's fine physically and mentally. He just has some stuff to deal with. He asked to see you, we tried calling your house but we got no answer. Where are you?" He asked.
"I'm at the Cullen's. I'll be there soon. Is he still at the hospital?"
"No were all at the Black house."
"Tell Sam, I'll be there soon and that he should call Emily, she is getting worried."
"Oh Okay, see you soon Bells."
"You too." I said as I hung up the phone.
I ran up the porch steps, through the door and up the central stair case that lead to the bedrooms. I flew into Alice's room and placed the phone in her waiting hand. She knew that Edward didn't tell me, I hugged her.
"Thank you Alice."
"It's ok; now take my car before Edward comes back." She handed me a pair of car keys.
I walked back down the stairs to see Carlisle and Esme staring at me from the lounge room, I didn't care I just ran to the garage.
