Chapter 8: Keeping everything to myself.
"Grounded?" I was yelling confusingly.
"Yes Bella! I have had enough with you! I cannot trust you anymore." He started screaming at me.
"Charlie! Come on! I didn't purposely wanted to go out with him, we just met!" I lied.
"At first I thought it was really awkward of you to ask Jake to go out with you, but now I understand everything! You tried to use Jake as a decoy so you can go out with Edward! And you ended up getting in an accident! I am sorry Bella, but if you need me to trust you again, you have to earn my trust!" He cleared his throat and start watching the baseball game.
"Ugh!" I used my crutches and slowly climbed up the stairs painfully. I reached my room and slammed the door hard. I can't believe I am grounded! This is so not fair! I am wrapped up with bandages just like a mummy, and he still wanted to ground me!
"I see you are angry, just give Charlie some time, he will eventually let you out again, I promise." Edward smiled, he must have heard everything.
"So, does this mean that you are moving back to forks?" I grinned.
"hmm, what if I say no?"
"Well, I would probably get into more major accidents than before." I smirked.
Edward laughed, "Yes Bella, of course I am moving back here with the whole family! Alice can't wait to see you."
"But, I am grounded, unfortunately." I sulked. "It's already devastating enough that I have to spend almost one year with this stupid thing!"
"Mm-hmm, Bella complaining, I am not surprised. Like I say Bella, just give him some time, don't go getting into more trouble. Maybe spend some time with him, he would love that."
"hmm, I don't know about that. I have never actually tried spending time with him."
He then slowly put me down on the bed and put my crutches aside. He then lay beside me and sang me the lullaby. I looked up and saw his beautiful golden gazing eyes.
"Bella, I think you should call..."
"Yes?" I was confused all over again.
"I think you should call Jacob." I stared at him unbelievably.
"Are you s--"
"He was the one who carried you nearly all the way to the hospital." He interupted, I held my breath for a moment. "He was really injured and exhausted, but he still tried to protect you with every energy he has left. He protected you and got himself fighting with strangers he barely knew. He tried to save you Bella, but I got in the way." My heart stopped for a minute. My mind was spinning in an awkward way.
"Jake.." I murmured.
"You should really visit him, but since your injuries are quite serious, I think you should invite him over." He got up on his legs, "I have to go now, I need to do some hunting. I will come back as soon as possible." I nodded to him and he gave me a kiss. And soon enough, I was left alone.
"Jake..." I continued to murmured.
I quickly tried to get my phone and type his number. I waited till someone picked up the call.
"Hello? Is jacob there?" I asked.
"Bella?"
"Jake! Oh my god, are you okay? I am sorry for everything, you tried to protect me by fighti--"
"Bella, it's okay. I am happy that you are alive. But, Bella, I don't think we should meet anymore, I think it's best for both me and you. Thanks Bella, for letting me have this "date" with you. I had fun when we were having dinner. I appreciate everything you have done Bella, I will miss you." He hanged up.
His voice sounded so unhappy, it was so broken. What have I done? Why did Jacob say that? Was there something that Jacob didn't want to tell me? What was it then?
