A/N: I have decided to not let Harry die in this fic. I am going to see how or if that will change things much
Jacob's POV (ITALICS is Jacob's wolf)
I love Bella, not Mary. I can't love Mary, she's my best friend. Although I have been a pretty shitty friend to her recently. I just hate it when Paul goes near her and the nerve of him buying a present with a silver wolf on it, his wolf. She's mine, my imprint. If she has any representation of a wolf it should be in my colours. Why am I like this?
This isn't fair on her, I made my choice. Why am I jealous?
Because your an idiot and need to realise that Bella is just using you as a replacement Leech my wolf growled at me.
I ignored him, Bella wasn't like that. She was warm with a kind heart. Her chocolate brown eyes, I could get lost in forever. She cares about the welfare of her family. How can the pack not see that?
Your blind and cannot see all the faults that Bella has. You ignore it. You cannot see what you are putting my Mary through. What Bella has and is putting her through. Mary is so much better than her sister, even when she was hanging around with the leeches, she was still wary around them and didn't want to be like them. Unlike her sister.
No Mary is weak and cannot hold her own ground.
She just doesn't want to hurt people and get into a big thing. She has been trying to make you and Bella happy but the two of you keep dragging her back into it and you both are hurting her more. You sense the hurt that is in her heart as much as I do. You hate it too, but you ignore it for that Leech lover!
But she's Mary, my friend. I have never looked at her in that way.
You did before you heard of Bella moving to Forks and you went straight back into your little crush mode.
I never did. It's your fault. Why did you have to imprint on Mary. I was doing brilliantly with Bella.
Will you stop imagining your happily ever after with the leech lover. She belongs with the Leeches and she attracts them well enough. In her head whether she will admit it or not. She still loves Edward and believes that he will come back and turn her into a vampire so that they can live happily ever after. You need someone who is happy being human. Who wants a simple happy life. Who wants children and to grow old. That person is Mary.
I will admit that Mary was beautiful with her long dark brown straight hair with hints of red and copper through it when the light hits it. Her skin alabaster, yet milky and smooth looking. Her eyes that change colour every now and again to show more a prominent colour whether that be brown, green or blue/grey. When she cries her eyes shine like emeralds as the red brings it out. She tries to make everyone happy and puts others before herself although she likes being selfish at times. She has admitted it and said that it's human nature. She accepts who she is although sometimes she hates herself. She loves nature, the green and the raindrops on leaves as she says that when the sun hits them, they are like diamonds.
See how much better she is than Bella
But Bella has a little more backbone and is not afraid to speak her mind.
So does Mary if you would just give her a chance. That Leech is close.
I ran and caught up with the redhead Leech, I just about had her when she jumped into the ocean. Damnit! I then smelled two familiar smells. Bella and Mary, what are they doing here?
BACK TO MARYS POV
Bella wanted to go to First Beach with me as I was going to just relax on the sand as I loved the feel of it under my feet and especially running through my hands. The only thing that beats it is the feel of grass under my feet. But when we got there she wanted to climb up and I knowing how clumsy she was went up with her. Which turned out to be a really bad decision. As once she got up she began taking off her Jacket saying things to nothing.
"Mary?" she asked and turned to me and grasped my hand.
"Yeah?" I asked her kind of scared.
"Do you want to cliff dive?" she asked hopefully.
"No, as I can't swim very well" I said. She shrugged and dragged me over to the cliff edge, gripping my hand tightly so that I couldn't get away. She's going to kill us both. I was about to protest when she jumped bringing me down with her, she screamed in delight whereas I screamed in fear. I crashed into the ice cold water, it stung ion impact. I was surrounded and the water was so heavy. I tried to kick myself up but my brain wasn't letting me. I was in overdrive of panic. I was bursting for some oxygen and I couldn't hold it any longer. I opened my mouth, the water came streaming in filling my lungs.
My sight was going dark, my head felt stuffy and light headed. My eyes felt so heavy. My lungs felt as if they were going to collapse. I felt something tug me up through the water and onto sand. I felt pressure on my chest and hair going into my mouth and lungs. I felt the water rise up to my throat and coughed it out, my lungs clearing of salt water. "Thank-god!" I heard a male voice cry out. I opened my eyes and saw Paul. "Hey" he said helping me sit up and rub my back.
"Hi" I said back in a croaky voice. "Where's Bella?" I asked him, he looked over his shoulder and I saw Jacob and Bella sitting. Of course Jacob would save Bella.
"I saw her jump off the cliff and taking you with her" he said helping me get up, making sure I was steady and leading me to the truck "Jacob is going to take you and Bella home" Paul said.
I sat beside Bella and Jacob was at the steering wheel.
"Thank-you for saving me Paul" I said to him with a small smile grasping his big warm hand in thanks.
It was a awkward journey home between Bella and I's soaking wet clothes and the tension that was there between the three of us. You could cut through it with a knife. Bella and Jacob were cuddling on the drivers side of the truck while I just shivered at the other end. We pulled up in front of the house.
I opened the door and jumped out, Bella was going to follow me out when Jacob leaned over her and shut the door. They were talking in rushed voices so I couldn't pick up what they were saying and saw them looking past me. I turned to see where they were looking at, it was Carlisle's car. Bella then got out of the truck and stalked off to the house.
"You know if the Cullen's are back then I can't protect you as this is their territory" Jacob said. But Bella went on a head. I followed her as I just wanted a bath then bed. I needed rest as my dad was going to need me over the next few days.
I heard Jacob slam the truck door in frustration behind him. Bella went into the house first and turned out the light. We both jumped when we saw Alice. "What to explain to me how you two are still alive?" she asked.
"We were pulled out of the water after she tried to kill me by dragging me off a cliff" I said to her.
"Mary you're shivering. What is that awful wet dog smell that is on you two?" Alice asked, her nose crinkled up in disgust. "That will be Jacob" Bella said.
"Who's Jacob?" Alice asked.
"My ex-best friend and Bella's new one" I said to her bitterly. Bella turned to me with a disapproving look on her face. I have had a bad day, I can be snappy if I liked.
"He's a werewolf" Bella said turning back to Alice.
"Werewolves are not good company to keep" Alice said disapprovingly.
"Speak for yourself" I heard Jacob from behind us. I turned to look at him but he was just looking at Bella and Alice. I felt invisible. So I just shrugged and hid my face disguising the hurt on my face walking up stairs.
"Mary, where are you going?" Alice called to me when I was halfway up the stairs.
"I am going for a bath and bed as I am soaking wet and freezing" I said without turning back to them. I heard their voices growing fainter and fainter and I climbed the stairs and went into the bathroom. I turned on the extractor fan and turned the hot water on. I went back to my room and grabbed a light pink cotton towel and my phone and blu-tooth speaker and went back to the bathroom. I closed the bathroom door after me.
I connected the phone to the speaker which I put on a shelf. I selected an album and sat it on the basket beside the bath as well as my towel. I then peeled my wet clothes off of me. I looked into the mirror, I looked like a mess. Bags under my eyes, my eyes dull and void of any kind of happy. I opened the bathroom window a crack so that it wouldn't get so steamy.
I then submerged myself in the hot water, letting the warmth seep into me and soothe my muscles. I closed my eyes and tilted my head back to rest it on the edge of the bath with the music playing as tears slipped down my cheeks.
