Chapter 5 –
Getting him Back
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you
(The fray- How to save a life)
Five years ago
I could not stand this. He was with every single girl in the entire university. They use to be my friends but now they his. They had all abandoned me, just because of him! What was so special about him?
I knew exactly what was so special about him. After until a few months ago I was the sole receiver of the immense affection and attention he and only he was capable of showering upon a person. He would get exceedingly annoying at times and I would be exasperated beyond measure on the tricks he pulled up, how he constantly tried to grab my attention when I was with my other friends. I guess this is what all the other girls saw appealing in him and wanted to.
The truth was no guy could make you feel comfortable and wanted like Jake could and it didn't hurt that he was good looking too.
What surprised me the most was that these girls had been friends with me just because of him, especially Tania and Jessica! This fact crushed me. They were all around me all the time and I never once doubted that all that was an act to get Jake. They would seem so excited to see me; I couldn't believe all of that was just an act. Now that I was no longer friends with Jake none of them was there for me. Hell, they had all even stopped talking to me. Now they surrounded him.
I guessed they would be glad I was out of the way. It gave them the perfect opportunity to get close to him. Anger and sadness coursed through my body. Suddenly I missed Jake more than ever. I knew we had fought and I did not want to see his face ever again, yet he was my best friend. I just could not see him with all the other girls. I never cared before when we were friends. I tried to fix him up with his crush but it did not work out, neither of us was good at it. But now seeing him like this just irked me.
I thought about how it would feel snatching him away from all the girls and it bought a strange sense of sadistic pleasure thinking about it.
I wanted him back.
….
"Jake," I called from behind.
He stopped and turned around slowly. I could see the solemn expression on his face yet I knew my voice had affected him.
"Can I talk to you?"
"What?" He said trying to sound nonchalant.
"Umm.. Not here. Can we go some place and talk?"
"Okay. " He said after a moment of hesitation and followed me.
I went into the library and headed towards the secluded end so we won't be disturbed. I stood in front of one of the shelf's and started looking through the books out of nervousness.. I could see him standing at the end of the row and I didn't turn around or abandon my pursuit until I felt his presence behind me.
"What is it Bella?"
He sounded exasperated and my resolve quivered for a second.
I turned around slowly with my eyes downcast. I looked at him from under my lashes and finally said.
"Jake, can we be friends again?" I said "I miss you Jake."
My voice quivered at the end.
"I miss you so much" I whispered brokenly. My eyes welled up with the tears.
"Oh Bella!" He enveloped me in his hug his arms gently enclosing around my body.
"Jake" I sniffed and hugged him tight.
I felt warm and safe in his embrace of my best friend. I felt whole again. He was my best friend in the whole world. It was hard to breathe without him. It was hard to live without his continuous presence in my life.
"Common lets go to the café and eat like dogs"
A shout of laughter escaped my lips after such a long time.
….…..
"Jake I don't like you talking to them."
"Common Bella, you talk to other guys too. I don't like it but I don't tell you to stop talking to them"
"Oh really. You did not talk to me for two entire months just because I wouldn't stop seeing Alec."
"That was then."
"Oh so you mean you don't care anymore?" I asked with an eyebrow raised.
'Fuck Bella" He said shoving his hand in his hair and pulling them. "I care okay. You know how much I care about you. Alec was a jerk Bella; I didn't want to see you hurt!
Hell, I can't see you with other guys but I'm trying to come to terms with it. Why do you care anyways who I talk to?"
I could see I was losing the battle. So I pulled the last card I had.
"I'll sleep with you. "
"What! Are you out of your mind Bella?"
"You can't talk to anyone of those whores again."
'Bella, have you gone crazy?"
I ignored his alarmed cries and moved towards purposely.
My hands came on his hard chest and moved up. I moved my body so that it was angled directly in front of him and pushed it against him.
"Bella, stop." He said weakly.
His weakness being my encouragement I moved my hands at the nape of his hair and holding his head tight, I pressed my lips to his and gently, seductively began moving them over his.
He moaned into my mouth and then his arms came around me to hold me tight as his lips became hard and urgent on mine. I could feel him surrender himself to me. I pulled back a little and smiled into his eyes, relishing my victory.
A/N: Needy greedy Bella. Haha, tell me how you like her? She sure seems manipulative right now but it's not her fault, don't hate her.
