Bella PoV

The make-out session had been a nice distraction from everything that troubled me. A very nice one. I'd never thought I would do something like that out in the open but when he had touched me it had felt so good and one thing had let to another... I was getting a feeling that things would proceed rather fast from here and I was totally okay with that. Seeing Alice again and talking about all the things that had happened since they left had shown me once more how much I needed Jake at my side. I wanted to be with him, also in that way. We'd simply had to figure out a way of being in a quiet room together with no suspicious dads.

Seeing him wolfing down the food I had brought him (and thinking I should probably have brought a few more sandwiches) had filled me with a feeling of satisfaction. I liked to cook for him, care for him like he took care of me, as a wolf and as a man.

It had been a spontaneous idea, taking a walk around the reservation but it felt good. The warm summer air blew through my hair and Jacob's presence at my side calmed me down enough so I could sort out everything that went through my mind. I went through the visit again, recalled everything I had said and how Alice had reacted to it. She had really not known what their sudden departure had done to me. She had just followed orders.

His orders.

Like it hadn't been enough leaving me in the middle of the woods, he had to tear his family out of my life too. He really must have despised me...

Our walk continued for another half hour. All the time I didn't say anything and neither did he. It was still light, we still had time. By now we had entered the woods and stood at a clearing, similar to the one where Laurent had found me. Where I had first seen the wolves. The meadow.

Unlike the meadow which had been brown and dead this one was alive. Green grass, moss and leaves covered its surface and when the wind blew once more it brought the scent of fresh flowers with it.

Jake had felt me stopping. He pointed towards the middle of the meadow. "Do you want to sit down for a while? It's been quite a walk." These were the first words any of us had uttered in the last hour and they sounded odd, as if they didn't belong here. I merely nodded and we sat down, side by side but not touching.

I drew my knees up to my body and put my head on them. I watched the sun in the sky and the birds flying over our heads. It was so quiet except for the chirping of some insects and the occasional shriek of a bird. The most peaceful place on earth.

The kiss came so sudden, my mind realised only moments later what I was doing. One moment I was sitting quietly beside Jacob, watching the sun in the sky the next I was sitting on top of him, kissing like there was no tomorrow. My hands found his hair immediately and buried themselves inside the black mass. His hand went up and down my body, touching every bit of skin he could find. I held up my arms and he helped me remove my top. I didn't care we were out in the open, I didn't care that this was stupid and reckless and that somebody could come around any minute. I just knew I needed him to touch me, make me feel alive.

I was by now only in my short jeans and bra and still felt I had too many clothes on. I moaned in his mouth, yanking at his hair so hard that it must hurt but either he didn't notice, or it didn't bother him because he only intensified the kiss further. His hands found the clasp of my bra and I didn't resist when he opened it, letting cotton fabric fall down in the grass beneath us. His hands found my breasts, cupping them, his thumbs stroking the middle and god, it felt so good.

A knot of heat formed inside my stomach and I moaned once more. I thought I heard him say something like "We should stop, this is not a good idea." But I stifled his words with my kiss.

I needed this, I needed him and everything else could go to hell.

Attention: As things may become a little steamier from here on, I'm changing the rating from T to M. Enjoy
