The Movie
(Tess POV)
The next evening I put my sweatshirt on again. I thought it would be pretty cold, but it wasn't that cold, especially next to Jake.
When we got to the movie theater, I went with Bella to get tickets for Facepunch, leaving Jake and a blonde guy – who I'm guessing is Mike Newton – alone, next to the door.
While at the ticket booth, Bella got 2 texts, one from Eric, the other from Jessica.
"Hey," I told her before she ordered the number of tickets, "You got some texts."
"Oh... Thanks, Tess." She said, kind of surprised that I was even talking to her.
"Oh. Damn. Okay." She said. She ordered 4 tickets and we walked back to the boys.
"So, Jessica bailed, and Angela got the stomach flu, so Eric's taking care of her... It's just us four." She said, pocketing her phone as we arrived next to Jake and Mike.
"Great!" Jacob exclaimed.
"Great..." Mike added, more sullenly.
. . .
Inside, Jake had his hands palm up for both me and Bella. At one point I grabbed his offered hand and turned away from the screen, facing the direction of Jacob, who, as I gripped his hand, had a grin growing on his face.
I smiled to myself as he turned his other hand over.
. . .
As we left Theater 13, I went to the bathroom. Mike was in the Men's already, throwing up.
After I washed my hands, I placed my hands on the rim of the sink and looked around. No one else was in there.
I walked over to one of the benches in the corner and put my head in my hands.
Why did he offer his hand to her, too?
I don't know. But why would he do that when we're sisters? I mean, there would be no way that I could be happy if he chose her...
… Maybe he was just testing for which one would take it. I mean, he did, after all, turn his hand over once we took it.
True. But –
My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Jacob yelling, "Right now, you're my problem."
I jumped up from my seat and sprinted over to the door.
But I tripped and fell a few feet away. I pulled myself up and felt my head. It was throbbing. I looked down at my hand. It was covered in blood.
"Oh, god." I said out loud.
"Want me to put you in the hospital?" I heard Jake yell again.
I continued running out of the bathroom, to see Jake, up in Mike's face, with Bella's arm wrapped around his.
That bitch.
I ran up the carpeted floor, still holding my head, and grabbed Jacob's arm, pulling him away from Bella. My touch seemed to calm him a bit.
"Jake," I said, calmly, "What's going on?"
"I don't know what's happening..." He said, "I gotta go."
He ran out the door, pulling away from me in the process. I glared at Bella, and then turned to Mike, "I'll try to talk to him..." And I ran after him.
"Jake! Stop! Jake!" I pulled on his arm as I caught up to him.
"Tess," He said, turning towards me, "I don't know what's happening... Can we just go home?"
"Uh... Okay," I said, letting go of his arm, "I'll drive."
. . .
We drove in silence, but I could feel the heat radiating off of him. His skin was probably over 120 degrees.
When we got back to Billy's, I tried calming him down, but he was still fuming.
I bet Bella was leading him on again.
Probably.
I'm telling you, she's just using him to get over that Cullen dude.
You're probably right, but we can't hate her, she's our sister!
She's about as much a sister to us as Leah is to Quil!
AKA, not one?
Exactly.
I thought we liked Leah.
We do, but her and Quil don't exactly get along. Hell, Leah's more of a sister to us than Bella will ever be!
So, even if that were to change –
– Which it won't –
– We still wouldn't like her?
No... Maybe if she would stop fucking around with Jake...
But we can't keep her from talking to him!
I had been sitting there for a few minutes now, Jacob as well. I looked over at him.
He seemed to be contemplating something, when – out of nowhere – Sam Uley walked out of the house.
I had seen Sam before, especially after Embry joined his gang. I felt bad for Jake. Two other of his tribe had joined before Embry. Jared and Paul.
Jacob realized Sam was there a few seconds after I did, an angry expression clouding over his face.
"What is he doing here?" He said, anger clear in his voice.
He jumped out of the truck, angrily stomping up to Sam.
"What are you doing here?!" Jake snarled as I got out.
"Jacob, I was here to warn your father that another..." He looked over at me, "Bloodsucker has moved into town." Sam said, backing away slowly.
"Wait, like... vampires?" I said, stepping towards them.
"Ms. Swan, please stay next to your truck." He added when I stepped closer.
"Why should she listen to you? Why should you expect her to obey you?" Jake growled, his outline starting to blur.
What the fuck? Why is he blurring?
"Jacob, soon you will be in need of my help, just like Paul, Jared and even – "
"Embry. Yeah, I know. You stole him from his family, his friends, and me."
"No, Jacob, I didn't steal him, he changed and needed my help, so I did."
"You know he's failing, right?" Jacob said, the blur now spreading two inches into his figure, "He's failing because of you, Uley!"
I started approaching them, hoping to calm Jake, comfort him.
"Ms. Swan, I command you to stay next to your car!" Sam shouted at me. I didn't care. I started walking faster towards Jacob.
"Don't you ever – " Jake said.
15 feet away.
" – command her – "
13 feet.
" – to do anything – "
10 feet.
" – AGAIN! "
I stopped. He was totally blurred now. The blur suddenly spread a good several feet behind him, and I fell backwards.
It roared.
A wolf. A giant wolf.
I screamed.
Author's Note: It's getting more creative at this point. Before it was just kind of explaining stuff, like why Tess hadn't ever been there when Bella was, stuff like that. But now it's going to get more creative and free-fallerish. So I hope you guys will be enjoying this, so please! Leave a review!
