Chapter Five in Jake or Edward
"Hey Edward!", I said. "Hey Bella love.", he replied. "So are you ready to go to the move?", he asked. "Yes. Are we still going to see Bride Wars?", I asked, looking at his oh-so-beautiful muscles through his oh-so-sexy tight shirt. I hope he didn't notice. "If you want to , my love.", he replied. "Ok that'll be great!", I said, still mesmerized by his muscles as he lifted me with one hand into the passenger seat of the silver, shiny, Porsche.
Well, the movie was OK, but I was more preoccupied with thoughts about Jacob. What will I tell him? Oh, just so you know Jake, I'm currently dating a very handsome werewolf named Edward Cullen. How would that go? Probably not well in my opinion. Well I never actually got around to going to Jake's house the other day. I chickened out. BooHoo. "So did you like the movie Bells?", Charlie asked when I came home. "Oh it was very nice.", I replied. Well what was I supposed to say? I didn't watch it dad. I was thinking about Jake the ENTIRE time. Yeah, I don't think that would go over well either. "So how did you fend for dinner?", I asked Charlie, trying to sound a little interested. "Billy came over with Jake and we ate some tamago and fries.", he replied. "Oh that's nice.", I replied. "Well I'm going to go up to my room and call Jacob real quick.", I continued. "Well okay Bells see ya in the morning.", he replied. So I gave him a kiss and went upstairs.
I called Jake and told him that we needed to meet. My exact words were, 'Hey Jake, can I come over this weekend? I need you to meet someone.' Of course he said yes so I told him I'd come over tomorrow. Oh, that someone was Edward, but I decided against saying that. I'm working on it. I'm in my noisy truck right now on the way to LaPush. Alright, I'm about a mile away and I'm terrified about his reaction. I'm hoping to God that'll understand. Really, if I was him, I probably wouldn't.
"Hey Jake, it's been awhile."I said. "Yeah Bells, it has been awhile."he replied. "OK Jake, I have someone you need to meet. His name is.... Edward Cullen."I continued. "OH MY GOD! ISABELLA SWAN! You're dating a werewolf!" He yelled like there has no tomorrow. "Well-wait, how did you know I was dating Edward?" I asked. "Bells, I'm a vampire. I can read minds. But I can only read yours sometimes. Only when I'm tuned into your thoughts." He replied, getting softer at the end, so that I could barely hear him. "Well Jacob, I'd rather you didn't tune into my thoughts!" and I stalked off, back to my idling truck.
Oh! What the heck did I just do? Oh! How could I do that? I didn't know I had it in me to yell like that at my pretty much best friend (if he still is). He didn't even get to meet Edward. Sometimes I just wanna call him a filthy bloodsucker because he gets on my nerves. "Bella? Bella, are you there?' Edward asked. I'd nearly forgotten he was in the car (if that was possible). "Sorry, Edward. I was kinda thinkin' about what I just did to Jake." I said a tad bit sadly. "It'll be okay my love! Just calm down." He replied. "I friggin' hope so Edward, I really do." by now I was hyperventilating.
