(a/n) ok this chapter and chapter one were suppose to be togther. Why I broke it apart I have no clue.
*disclaimer* I forgot to say it in chapter one but I dont own twilight.
ps. I have writers block so that only means one thing... it will take forever to get chapters three and four up. *sad face*
Chapter two
Jacob POV
"What are you doing here?" I bellowed before regaining a more tranquil composure.
"Well it is 'our' side of the land so..." he said referring to his whole clan in general.
"Oh" I said remembering where exactly I was. I looked down to realize even though after I had regained control of my body I was still attached to a blood red apple...and to his hand that held the apple hostage. I let go of it only to find him starring at me.
"Do you have something to say if not stop starring at me." I almost shouted. His look was so calm and piercing that I couldn't help but get mad.
"Well actually aren't you the one that has something to say. You came here looking for something didn't you?"
"Well...see...uhh." I couldn't finish the sentence. 'Damn I forgot the leech was a mind reader. Urg he's probably listening to me now'
"Yep"
'Damn.' I waited for him to make a move. Anything that would give me an excuse to rip the leech in half. Anything to let me get revenge on the guy that madeBella leave. The intense starring contest that seemed to last for what felt like forever came to an abrupt end. His eyes went to focus on the apple.
"Here if you want the apple you can have it" he said tossing it to me. He rolled over and took a big whiff of the grass and flowers 'leeches are weird' and stood up. He gave me one final look and turned away. His feet moved slowly as he began to walk past me.
"Wait" I yelled not exactly understanding why I did it. "Do you think she will ever come back?"
"Who?"
"Bella you idiot" I was more calm but at the same time slightly desperate now. I didn't know if I was hoping he had given up on her and moved on or just hoping he would be the one person who would give me some form of reassurance.
"I really don't know. BUT YOU WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO ASK ME THAT QUESTION IF YOU WOULD HAVE REALIZED THAT SHE LOVED ME. THIS IS ALL YOUR ENTIRE FAULT. YOUR CONSTANT PURSUANCE OF HER IS WHAT MADE HER LEAVE." his eyes were cold and hurt. The venom in his voice as he spoke was evident but still he couldn't hide the pain.
"MY FAULT! SHE COULD HAVE OR BETTER YET SHE DID LOVE ME JUST AS MUCH AS YOU IF NOT MORE. I WAS HER FRIEND AND THERE WAS NO WAY I WAS LETTING HER BECOME ONE OF YOU. YOU EVEN SAID IT YOURSELF THAT I WAS PROBABLY WHAT'S BEST FOR HER"
"WELL I WAS WRONG AND COMPLETELY OUT OF MY MIND WHEN I SAID THAT. I WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON LOVING BELLA"
I found my body moving faster than my mind could comprehend. I was lunging at him, body unchanged which was interesting considering the amount of anger I was feeling towards this thing in front me. I pushed him to the ground with all the force I had. Landing on top of him with a clenched fist. My hand was headed straight for his face but his arm slipped from under me and switched our position. I hit the ground on my back with a light thud as he was now straddling me.
The frivolous fight just ended up being him and I rolling in the grass.
Constantly switching positions right before the other could do any type of real physical harm. We tossed, turned, and tussled until we were back into the forest rolling over the twigs, roots, and leaves. At this point it really didn't feel like a fight at all.
More like a... wrestling match! I wasn't really trying to hurt him anymore nor did it feel like he was attacking me. It felt something like what Sam, Seth, and I would do. Just rolling around... fighting for dominance to come out on top... playing?. Was he playing with me like this was a game or some sort of male bonding moment? Was I playing too? Was I liking this?
Edward POV
Everything just seemed to happen so quickly. I knew he wanted the apple so I let him have it. He was just waiting for me to attack but if only the stupid mutt could understand that I don't intend to harm people but yea maybe him at this point. I lost my temper after he brought up Bella's name. He shouldn't have brought her up and it was his fault she left but he still attempted to attack me. Now after all the rolling we lay side by side beside a tree no longer angry. I could hear his uneven breathing. We ventured far from our starting in the tiny meadow to end here. I stood up and brushed off my cloths. I looked down to my left and let a hand outstretch into his direction. I was so angry before but in this simple moment I couldn't muster the smallest amount of hatred for the wolf.
"Are you ok" I asked. His face still not level with mine as he took my hand.
"Yea" came the shaky reply
"I have to admit that's the most fun I've had in a while" his whole head darted up, his eyes looking into mine with shock as I gave him a genuine smile. My gift then let me hone in on his ramble of thoughts. 'I gotta go, I gotta go, I gotta go.' the thoughts seemed rushed.
"I gotta go" he said finally verbalizing his thoughts. He turned around quickly breaking eye contact and tried to run away but his foot immediately caught onto a root of the tree sending him towards the ground. I was able to catch him in my arms before he landed face first into the ground. There was a slight pause and a quick change in composure as he steadied himself in my arms.
"Ahhh thanks" he said to me avoiding all eye contact and running away this time not tripping on any roots. 'No no no no no no' were the words loud in my weren't my thoughts which meant they belonged to the now running away teen.
I started to wonder what he was thinking about but his thoughts were soon out of my range. I turned around myself to head towards my house. My site was then focused on a familiar red speck that was in the direction the Jacob and I came rolling from... wait a second when did I start calling the mutt Jacob. Gosh you roll around with a guy once and all of a sudden you start calling him by his name; that had to stop. I picked up the apple that trailed not to far after the rumble. The mutt had left behind his main reason for encountering me. It was my way of being nice and he left it. I could probably catch up to him but he seemed to be in a rush.
I looked at the sky. This time there was no form of light behind it. When I looked around it was a lot darker than before. I stayed out here longer than I intended to. It turns out Alice was right and that everyone else had probably gotten home a long time ago. I blurred through the trees heading home my mind replaying my encounter with the, wolf/mutt whatever I was calling him now, and what I had said was true. All week I was sort of glum but the whole encounter just helped me advert my thoughts and relieve some unwanted stress and feelings.
I stopped running a few steps before the front door. Before my hand could reach it Alice, from the other side, hurled the door open with to much force. We stood there starring for a while until Rosalie walked down the stairs.
"Well I see your doing a lot better." Alice said
"Why do you say that?"
"Your smiling and" she was cut by Rosalie "Ewww Edward you smell like a dog.
What were you doing?"
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcxcxxxxxx
I made it to my room but not before I played a million and one questions with Alice and Rosalie.
A few moments ago
"Edward why do you smell like a dog?" asked Rosalie
"Edward what were you doing that took you so long" asked Alice with a slight smirk.
"Edward why are you covered in dirt" Rosalie
"Edward why are you smiling" Alice
"Edward why do you still have that apple from lunch" Rosalie
I glanced at both girls and began walking towards the stairs to my room. I turned around and in one quick sentence answered
"I found a lost dog or rather it found me, it was following me so I played with it for a while, it found me I was already laying on the ground, it was fun and I really have no idea why I still have the apple. Good bye"
Flash back ends
I sat down on the sofa by my window and looked at the apple. Everything but the last statement was true, I kept the little red homing beckon just so I would have and excuse to talk to 'him' again. It was a lame excuse I know but all that rolling in the grass just seemed so...so...so...
"Right..."
"WHAT!"
"Right now Edward. You should really shower or something. You really smell bad and that dog stench is filling the whole house." Alice said interrupting my thoughts for the second time today.
"Ok yea I guess I should do that"
"I mean you would think the scent would bother you too but I guess not. That must have been some time you had with that wolf to not mind his smell"
Wait did she just say wolf? Yes she did just say wolf which is no where near the same thing as dog. She could have even said mutt but she specifically said wolf which only meant... she knew. She did it again, purposely diverting her thoughts just so she could say these words without my knowing of them. She wanted to see my expression when i found out she knew. No she wouldnt do that or would she? Our conversations we had at school played in my head. How much did Alice really know or a better question is was she playing a puppetteer?
I think I smell something really hot happening in chapter three... to bad it wont be up for a while due to Im leaving for a family trip tommorow so no computer until i get back. if im lucky the trip wont extent past 5 days*evil grin* but I will be sure to make things interesting for those of you who wait...MWHAHAHAHAHAHA.
