Chapter twenty one: Getting worse.

I was dreading going back home. There was going to be so much drama between Jacob and Edward's families. Bella and I texted each other all the way home while our men drove. We still couldn't believe what happened.

My mother pulled me into open arms when I arrived back home. Jacob started unpacking my suitcases as I greeted my mother. Behind her I could see a huge present. Maybe she bought me something with the money my father gave her.

"I have a surprise for you honey!" Kelsey grinned pulling me inside.

"Mom, you know I hate surprises," I whined, letting her pull on my arm.

She waved her hand at me and pushed the box in front of me. "Open it,"

I did as I was told and tore off the wrapping paper. Opening the box up, I noticed another box I had to open. This continued on till I got down to a tiny little box wrapped in pink paper. Jacob finished bring in my luggage as I started to open the little box.

Inside was a pink diamond heart locket with my name on it. It was so beautiful I could cry. My mother looked satisfied with the look on my face. She hugged me tightly.

"Look inside," She insisted.

I unlatched the heart and looked at the two pictures inside the locket. On the left side was a picture of my mother and on the right was Jacob. I didn't know how she got a picture of him but it was so sweet. Jacob took a peek and smiled, helping me put it on.

"Mom, thank you so much! It's beautiful," I hugged her one more time after the necklace was on.

"Your welcome sweetie. I asked Jacob's father for a little picture. He was happy to give me one," Kelsey replied.

"He gave you my school picture didn't he?" Jacob asked.

Kelsey nodded. "Yes, its so cute to. Your a handsome man Jacob," my mother smiled.

He blushed. "Thanks,"

I clapped my hands together. "Well this has been great but we have some business to settle with the Cullen family so I might be home later tonight. I don't know. I might just stay at his house,"

"Okay dear, be careful I love you,"

"Love you to mom."

We headed back out the door to my car and Jacob continued to drive to his house. Unaware to the both of us, every one that was once a wolf or is a wolf now was crowded in Jacob's house. There were so many cars in his driveway and alongside the road we had to park in the woods near the garage.

Jacob stared at his house through the windshield and I could tell he regretted attacking Edward a few days ago. I didn't care what he did, I would always stand beside him. Now his family was going to scream and bitch at him and I was going to take the blame without Jacob knowing.

"Baby," I said before he could get out.

He scooted the seat back all the way and pulled me on his lap. "I know, I don't want to go in either,"

I rested my head on his shoulder. "This is my fault. I shouldn't have talked to Edward at all. Ever since you met me, everything has been going wrong," Shut up Avril. You had to keep that to your self! God I hated when I don't think before I talk.

Jacob grabbed my face in his hands and crashed our lips together. "Don't," he said in between kisses. "This would have happened even if you were here or not. Edward and I never got along and we never will,"

"Okay. I'm sorry for thinking like that." Still didn't believe him. I knew it was my fault. "Are you ready to go in there?"

"One thing first,"

"Hmm?"

He grabbed my hand with his and locked our fingers together. "Can you pretend your sleeping? I don't want you to hear what they say. We might actually go into wolf form maybe. But I don't want to see your face when I get yelled at. It would kill me to see you sad for what I did,"

Was Jacob stupid? I want to be there for him. He can't face it alone. Part of it is my fault! How could he ask me that?

"No, I want to be at your side,"

Jacob put his hand up. "Avril please. I'm begging you," He looked so sad, I had to give in.

"Fine, take me to your room."

He smiled and got out of the car. Jacob picked me up bridal style and headed inside. I closed my eyes just as we entered the house.

Everyone was talking at the same time and stopped as soon as we came in. I snuggled up closer to Jacob's chest and could hear his heartbeat move faster and faster.

All eyes were on us, well I think they were. I could just feel their eyes on us as he carried me to his room. Seth whispered something in his ear and I barely caught it. It sounded bad though.

After Jacob tucked me into his bed and kissed my forehead he was gone. His bedroom door was being guarded by the looks of it. I could hear someone breathing next to me in his small room.

Thirty minutes passed and the quiet talking stopped. All of a sudden I heard Jacob and his father yelling at each other. I sprang out of bed but Seth grabbed me, pinning me down back on the bed.

"You can't leave Avril. Jacob begged me not to let you," Seth said holding me down.

I groaned. "He needs me! Let me go to him!" I begged struggling against his grip.

"HOW COULD YOU HAVE DONE IT JACOB! YOU COULD HAVE KILLED HER!" I heard Billy scream at Jacob. He had a real powerful voice.

"I DIDN'T MEAN TO! I COULDN'T CONTROL MYSELF!" Jacob yelled back. "I'LL KILL EDWARD BEFORE HE CAN SPLIT US UP!"

"JACOB!" I screamed bloody murder. My throat actually hurt afterwards.

Seth's ears were too weak for my scream and he had to let go of me because it was so loud. The whole house went silent and Jacob stormed into his bedroom.

I jumped into his arms and wrapped my legs tightly around his waist. His arms gripped around my waist and we continued to hold each other while everyone watched.

Emily was the closest person I could see. She knew exactly what I was going through and came up to us with Sam. They excused the four of us from everyone else so we could talk privately.

Jacob still held me in his arms as we sat on his bed. There was no way I was going to let him go again. He needed me out there and not locked up in a tiny room.

"I know this is hard Jacob," Sam started. "I got it worse for accidentally hitting Emily. You need to learn how to control yourself when your around the one woman you love with all your heart. It's hard but you need to learn,"

Jacob looked deep into my crystal blue eyes and didn't reply back.

"Maybe you should talk to him separately. I need to talk to Avril anyways," Emily suggested.

Sam nodded and took Jacob to Billy's room. Everyone was getting pissed off that they couldn't talk to Jacob.

"Are you doing okay?" Emily asked.

I crossed my legs and nodded. "I'm fine,"

"Good, at least you didn't get it as bad as I did," she giggled. I didn't know what to do since that was a serious subject. "There's a few things you should know about dating a wolf,"

Yeah, I knew that already. They're not like normal boys. "What's that?"

"You have to give up a few things that you don't want to. Like hanging out with Bella. She's always with Edward and you can't be near him till Jacob can control himself. He needs time and I know how good of friends you are with them but you don't want Jacob to explode again,"

I continued not to say anything so Emily could tell me everything.

She took a deep breath. "I had to stop talking to my own family. You know Leah?"

I nodded.

"She dated Sam before he imprinted on me. Leah loves him so much and it kills her everyday to see Sam and I together. To be with Sam I had to ignore her. It was hard but I was able to do it till now. She seems to be a wolf now,"

"Oh," I said. She didn't leave me much to say after all that. It must have been really hard for her but she got through it. Maybe I can to.

Emily brushed her hair to the side. "Just remember, things can only get worse before they can get better,"

What kind of advice was that? I don't want anything to get any worse than it already is! "Thanks Emily, if I have any troubles with this whole situation I'm coming to you,"

She laughed. "Awesome, my door is always open for any wolf and his girl,"

I pulled her into a hug. "I'm going to check on Jacob,"

Emily nodded and got out of the way for me. I followed Jacob's voice down the hall to where he and Sam were talking. Sam didn't hesitate to let me in and for the rest of the night he talked to us about what was going to happen. He mentioned tomorrow we have to go talk to the Cullen family. For all we know, they still want to rip Jacob to shreds.
