This is where it all began My sister thought it would be a good idea to see Jacob, a friend that was maybe my crush. I don't know what it was but I always felt a pull to
be with him, must just be my hormones raging.
"Come on Bella, he can fix them, at least your getting out of the house." I said with a smile on my face. We pulled up to his house and she smiled at me. I got out after
Bella and the pull got stronger, I don't know why but it was always when I was around Jacob. I saw him, he smiled at me and ran to us,
"Bella! Jace, Where the hell have you both been, crazy?" He said picking me up and spinning me. I laughed as he put me down,
"Bella... brought you something. "I said as he followed us to the back. She showed him the scrap metal she had saved from the junkyard.
"You shouldn't have." He said smiling as I leaned into him.
" I think, they'll probably cost more to fix than they're worth. ...but then I thought that... if I had a mechanic-type friend to help me out" Bella said stuttering a bit.
"Huh, me? Being the mechanic-type friend? - That's right. Since when are you into motorcycles?" Jacob asked as he looked at her confused.
"Since now. I get it if you think this is really stupid and reckless." Bella said scratching her head.
"Yeah, it's completely stupid and reckless. When do we start?" Jacob asked her.
"Now. Please. - alright. Oh, hey, be careful. These things are actually really... ...heavy." Bella said very confused.
"So, Jacob, you're like buff. How that can happen? You're like 16, I don't get it." I asked confused.
"Age is just a number, baby. What, you're like 40, now?" He asked me and I blushed, I dragged a piece of my dark brown hair out of my face. Jacob got the bikes into
the garage he had, he turned on the radio, but Bella soon turned it off, what is her problem, ever since her bloodsucker left she has become completely different.
"That song was good. You don't like it?" Jacob asked her as I found the tools he needed.
"I don't really like... ...music anymore kind of..." She said and I rolled my eyes.
"Okay. No more music." He said as I handed him a wrench.
"I was thinking, if we're gonna do this everyday, ...and hopefully we will... We have to, like, fit some homework in there somewhere. I don't want Billy thinking that I'm
a bad influence on you." Bella said as I looked outside. I drowned the two out, I don't know what it was that made me want to be around Jake, It was like he was my
oxygen, my heart, like my personal drug.
"Yo, Jake, you in there?" I heard a new voice drawing me out of my train of thought.
"No, it's okay. It's... It's just my boys." Jacob said as I leaned on the Rabbit.
"Hey, Jake." The two Quileute boys said smiling.
"Hey. Guys, this is Bella and Jace. Bella and Jace, that's Quil and Embry." Jacob introduced us.
"I'm Quil Ateara. So the bike building story is true." He said pointing at me.
"Oh, yeah, yeah! I taught him everything he knows." I said with a smile.
"What about the part where you're his girlfriend?" Embry said smiling, I didn't need to see my face cause it was beet red.
"Actually, I remember, I said she's a girl and a friend." Jacob said stuttering a bit.
"Embry, do you remember him making that distinction?" Quil replied.
"Nope! So you guys have girlfriends." Bella asked.
"It's awesome." He replied.
"Yeah, right. Quil's actually taken his cousin to prom." Jacob said and I laughed.
"Yeah, that's still a riot. You want funny, Black? I'll give you funny." Quil said as he attacked him, the two were wrestling.
"Jesus! I got five bucks on Quil." Embry said as he sat next to Bella and I.
"If I add 20 on Jake You're on." I said smiling. Bella and I came by Jacob's every day, every now and then Jacob's hand would brush mine,we would look at one another
and we blushed, about three weeks went by, I walked with Jacob by my side and Bella on the other side, my arm holding his as his hand held mine,
"Quil keeps asking to come over. I think he likes you a little too much." Jacob said to Bella as the three of us walked,
"Oh, I'm really not into the whole cougar thing, you know?" Bella replied as she smiled and I laughed,
"What's up with you and age? I mean, how old was that Cullen guy anyway?" Jacob asked her and I stopped laughing immediately as Bella had her sad face back, I
looked at him and shook my head. Jake gave me an apologetic look. Later that night I heard Bella screaming, I woke up with a start, but I heard Dad talking to her so I
went back to sleep, the next morning, Bella and I picked up Jacob so we could ride our bikes together, Bella drove as I was in the middle,
"Is that Sam Uley?" Bell asked as she drove, my head was on Jake's shoulder as I looked at where Bella was looking,
"Yeah, and his cult. " Jacob replied as I watched two other of Sam's followers throw another boy off the cliff,
"Oh, my God!" Bella said as she pulled to the side of the road and got out, Jacob and I got out as well,
"Did you see that?" Bella asked us as I listened to Jacob chuckle, I looked at him confused,
"They're not really fighting, Bella. They're cliff diving. Scary as hell, but a total rush. " Jacob said as I stood beside him, his body warmth hitting me hard, so I leaned in
to him, Jacob smiled as he placed an arm on my shoulder.
"A Rush? " Bella asked interested as I was a bit worried about her,
"Most of us jump from lower down, We'll leave the showing off to Sam and his disciples. " Jacob told us as I just watched another person jump,
"You have some kind of beef with them or something?" Bella asked as she got out of the road,
"Oh, no. They just think they run this place. Embry used to call them hall monitors on steroids. Now, look at him." Jacob said as he looked at Embry who was about to
jump off the next point,
"That's Embry?" I asked as Jacob nodded to me,
"Yeah. " Jacob said as he held me closer to him, Bella just glared at me, but just looked at Jacob innocently.
"What happened to him? " Bella asked as I could tell she was upset about something,
"He missed some school and all of a sudden he started following Sam around like a little puppy. Same thing with Paul and Jared. Sam keeps giving me this look, like
he's waiting for me or something. It's kinda starting to freak me out. " Jacob said as I leaned into him more,
"Well, you should just avoid him." Bella said as I felt Jacob shake a bit,
"I try." Jacob said as he held me even closer as I watched Sam jump from the highest point and land into the water. We all got back in the truck and drove to the
marsh, Bella was just off into space then came out of it,
"Okay" She said as I nodded,
"You look scared" Jacob said as I chuckled a bit then stopped,
" I'm not" She replied as I got in front of the bike,
" Alright Brake?" I asked as she pointed it as I nodded,
"Clutch" I asked then she showed me,
"Good Gas?" I asked as she turned it on.
"Ready? Now slowly release the clutch"I said as I stepped to the side and closer to Jacob, the pull was getting stronger every single day I was around Jacob, it was so
strong that if I wasn't near him, my chest would hurt. Bella went blank then she turned to something, I looked at where she was looking, nothing was there. Bella
released the clutch without realizing then she went forward then stopped herself,
"Who there Bells" I said as I was nervous for her,
"You alright" Jacob asked, she smiled,
"I'm gonna go again" She said as I stood next to Jacob who was holding my hand, as Bella went she was shaking the front then she was shaking out of control,
"Hit the break" I screamed, she then fell off her bike and hit a large boulder, Jacob and I got on his bike to get to her, I jumped off as Jacob stopped the bike.
"I wanna go again." She said as I shook my head at her,
"Are you trying to get yourself killed?" I asked her as she tried getting up,
"I'll try again." She said as I looked at Jacob,
"No, forget it. No more bikes. Man, your head." Jacob said as he looked at my sister's head,
"Ow! Oh my God, I'm sorry. " She said as she felt her forehead,
"You're apologizing for bleeding? " I asked her as she nodded at me,
"Yeah, I guess, I am. " Bella replied as I looked for my handkerchief I usually had with me,
"It's just blood, No big deal." Jacob said as he got his shirt off, I watched his abs as they moved with his breathing, I just stared, then Jacob looked at me and smiled,
"What are you staring at? " He asked as I madly blushed,
"You're sort of beautiful." I said as I smiled at him,
"Are you sure you didn't hit your head?" Jacob asked as I laughed, he then smiled back at me. About two weeks went by, Bella had very few night terrors, but
sometimes they would appear. During a weekend I was finishing up a project for a client. I heard a knock on my door.
"Open" I replied as it auto saved.
"Hey Jacob and a few of my friends are going to see FacePunch you wanna come" Bella asked as she came into my room.
"Sure, I have nothing else to do" I said closing my laptop. Bella took her truck and I decided to take my bike. We got there, I recognized Jacob, the past few months
have been great, Jacob and I have gotten a lot more closer,but I kept dreaming about this russet wolf. I shook it off as I got my helmet off. Bella went to order tickets,
I stood by Jacob and Mike kept giving me eyes, I just leaned into Jacob more, he wrapped his arms around me, I just smiled and blushed.
"Jessica bailed and Angela's got the stomach flu ...so Eric's taking care of her. So, it's just us four." Bella said staring at me. Why was she being so weird towards me
lately.
"Great. Great." Mike said and we got into the theater. As it started I noticed that Jacob's hand was on my armrest. I placed my hand in his and intertwined our fingers,
Jacob looked at me as I smiled at him, I placed my head on his shoulder, then he put his head on mine.
"Okay, I think I'm gonna throw up! Jesus!" Mike ran out and so Bella, Jacob and I got up and walked to hear Mike throwing up in the men's bathroom.
"What a marshmallow! You should hold out for someone with a stronger stomach. Someone who laughs at the gore that makes weaker men vomit." Jacob said making
me laugh, I nodded at him.
"Yeah, I'll keep my eye open for that. I feel bad. He probably has that flu that's... ...going around." Bella said as she shrugged. Jacob and I sat on the steps while Bella
leaned on the mirror.
"So... Okay, tell me something. You like me, right? And you think, I'm sorta beautiful?" He said with a smile. I just looked him in his beautiful brown eyes. I bit my lower
lip and nodded lightly, Jacob looked at my eyes then my lips, only to come back to my eyes,
"Jace, I would never, ever do that. I won't ever hurt you. I promise. I won't let you down. You can count on me. " He said holding my hand, I looked at him as his eyes
flicked from my eyes to my lips again, I leaned in a bit and so did he, was this actually about to happen, my first kiss?
"Well... I need to go home. I'm... I was feeling sick before the movie, okay?" Mike said and I huffed. Jacob just looked at him with a deadly glare.
"What is your problem? " Mike asked him.
"Right now? You are my problem. Feeling sick? Maybe you need to go to the hospital. Do you want me to put you in the hospital?" Jacob said about to lunge at him.
"Jake... Jake, the movie's over. What are you doing? Jake, you're really hot. Like, you feel like you have a fever. Are you okay?" I said holding him back a little.
"I don't know what's happening. I gotta go." He said as he was leaving.
"That dude is weird." Mike said and I felt hurt, why am I feeling like this.
"Bella I will see you at home" I said as I ran after him. I got outside to see Jacob about to get on his motorbike.
"Jacob" I called out to him. He looked at me, I walked to him,
"Are you sure you're feeling okay" I said as I held his cheeks in my hands. "Yeah" He said looking at my lips again, I leaned in and so did he, our lips collided, it felt like
nuclear bombs. We parted, I pressed a soft kiss against his lips.
"I have to go" He said giving me a sad look.
"Call me Jake" I said before he rode off, I went to my bike and held myself up. I got on and rode home.
