Bella's POV

I felt the warm sun on my face and blinked my eyes open to see it coming up over the ocean, It looked so amazing,looking up I see Jared with his eyes closed still sleeping. I slowly started to sit up when he woke and

looked at me with a big smile.

"Mmm,Good morning Bella"...watching him stretch out then pull me down on him and kiss me softly.

"I should get home soon,I need to get some things done and Charlie might be a little worried if he noticed I never made it home last night"...Getting up slowly I stand and stretch my arms up,letting out a moan and feeling a little stiff from laying on the ground all night.

"Okay Bella,I'll walk you back to your truck,and we can get together later...Maybe I can come over to your house"...seeing Jared look at me curiously as he stands,wondering what I might say next.

"Um..yea maybe you can,Just text me around 7pm and I'll let you know"...Feeling guilty because I already knew my answer was gonna be no,I was feeling bad because of the way Jacob ran off and the way I made him

feel,I was also anxious to get away from Jared just so I could call him and apologize.

"Ready to go?"...Watching Jared hold out his hand.

"Yep"...I say,Taking his hand and looking down as we walk back to my truck.

Jared stopped when we reached the beach again,he turned and faced me,wrapping his hands around my waist,I placed my hands on his arms and looked at him.

"Bella,I want you to know I really do love you and you making the choice to be with me has made me very happy"...Jared then kissed me soft and long. It felt right but at the same time it felt wrong. I slowly released the kiss.

"I should really go Jared"...I started walking again towards the truck.

"Bella! What's wrong?did I do something wrong?"...stopping and looking at his confused look.

"No Jared,It's just...just...well I fell like I really hurt Jacob"...Looking down now not sure what to say.

"Really hurt Jacob? What...Ha"...seeing Jared getting upset I back up a little then look at him again.

"Yes because before you came out and told me you loved me Jake was the one I was in love with"...turning around and running to my truck,I reach the door and stop, I see Jared get to me in a flash.

"Bella,please I really want to be with you"...I look up into his eyes and cant help my tears as they start to spill down my cheeks. He grabs my arm and tries to pull me towards him but I pull back away.

"I...I really need to go I need some time Jared,I need time to think and time to apologize to Jake"...I quickly get into the truck and start it up,I look at him through my window and give him an apologetic look and then drive away.

Jared's POV

Watching the girl I love in pain,looking so sad and frustrated,that really frustrated me. Seeing her tears and knowing I caused some of that made me angry with myself.

If she would feel better after apologizing to Jake then I would give her that and if she knew that I apologized to him too maybe she can forgive me for making things so complicated.

I cared for her so much I would do anything to make things right,I just hope Jake will forgive me and forgive her,I don't really want to lose my brother too. so I headed over to his house to see him.

Reaching the small red house I go to the door and knock, I then see Billy answer the door.

"He's not here Jared I haven't seen him,he never came home last night"...running my hand through my hair and feeling guilty.

"I'm really sorry Billy,I think he ran away to get away from my thoughts"...placing my hands in my pockets and looking at Billy.

"Why would Jake need to get away from your thoughts? what's going on Jared?"

"Well...I...I was having thoughts of Bella, We had a fight over her and he took off "

"over Bella!...oh..I see. Well did he say where he was going?"

"No Billy he didn't say,he was really pissed and he phased and took off. I came to apologize to him"...Walking back a couple steps and taking my hands out of my pocket.

"I'll be over at Sams house.I'll call you if I find him"

"Thanks Jared"

"No problem,I want to find him. Cya"...turning and walking away towards Emily and Sams place. I grab my cell phone out and call Jakes phone..it goes strait to voicemail.

I reach Sams house and go right in as I always do,I hear Embry and Quil arguing about something and see Sam standing next to Emily in the kitchen, he see's me and asks what's up.

"Hey Sam,I can't find Jake and I think It's all my fault and he ran away and I don't know what to do"...Feeling really worried and in a slight panic I hear Sam's deep voice.

"Jared calm down,why would Jake be upset with you?what happened?"...I sit down and put my head in my hands and let out a deep breath then look back up at Sam.

"Well,we had a fight over Bella. He was so pissed off he Phased and ran away. Billy said he never came home last night and his phone is off"

"Okay,Well we'll find him we'll see if he's still out in the woods and phased,we might just need to let him have his space."...Sam paused for a minute and looked at me.

"What Sam?"

"Well what I would like to know is why would you be arguing with Jake about Bella? That's Jakes girl and we all know that."...Feeling bad enough and not really wanting to talk about it but knowing that when I phased it

would all come out anyway,I told Sam everything.

"I really love her Sam,I don't know what to do about all of this"

"Well lets get out there and look for him first and then we'll deal with the rest later"...I watched as Sam gave Emily a kiss,I got up and walked outside,I heard Sam tell Quil and Embry we were going out to look for Jake. He

told Quil to look for Paul and let him know and to find Leah and let her know too.

"Okay,Jared lets go"...I walked to the forest with the guys and we quickly undressed,tying our clothes to our legs and phased,we all started running,I heard Sam saying we should split up and try to listen for Jake, I also

heard Embry laughing and saying how stupid I was to be messing with Jakes girl and was lucky to still be alive,I growled and told him to shut up and focus on finding Jake...I went North to see if I could hear him hoping he

was still close enough to hear or still phased.

Jakes POV

I opened my eyes and woke up to see Ava still lying on top of me asleep. I blinked a couple times and realized that it all wasn't a dream and she was real. I placed my hand on her back and and ran it up her spine slowly and softly. I heard her let out a little moan and then she slowly sat up looking at me with a smile.

"Sorry Jake,I didn't mean to fall asleep on you,I guess I feel really comfortable with you"...I watched her stretch her arms up then she leaned down and kissed me softly and quickly,then hopped off me.

"It's okay Ava I really enjoyed it,I just hope your dad isn't upset we slept in the same room"...Getting up I sat at the edge of the bed,wondering when someone was gonna come in and possibly kick my ass for this.

"Oh Jake don't worry,no ones gonna be pissed at you,we just fell asleep talking. It's not a big deal"...she came over to me and grabbed my hand.

"I know but I don't want anyone to think we were doing more ya know"...Standing up I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Hmm...well they can think all they want to,we know what we did and what we didn't do"...she stood up on her tiptoes and kissed me,I felt like I was exactly where I should be.I turned her and gently lied her on the

down I kissed her more deeply than she did me,I felt her hands run up my side and back down hearing her moan. I released the kiss and realized I was probably moving to fast for her again.

"Sorry Ava I didn't..."...she stopped me with a kiss..Feeling her tongue trace along my bottom lip I just went with it and kissed her back with more passion than before. I leaned down closer putting my right arm under her

head while still holding myself up with the other. I pressed my hardness against her slightly and moaned into her mouth,she let out a soft moan to mimic mine. Just then someone knocked on the door lightly,Ava opened her

eyes wide,smiling and letting out a little giggle.

"Get up Jake"...she whispered to me,I got up and just sat on the edge of the bed as she opened the door just slightly to see who it was,I heard her whispering and realized it was Chance.

"I told Dad Jake was in my room last night and that he was still sleeping,but you two better be careful he will have a fit if he knows Jake was in here all night"...I hear him whisper and feel a little nervous.

"Thanks Chance I really owe you one"...I hear her whisper and then hear him chuckle and walk away as she closes the door.

"Ava I have to go I don't want your parents angry with me"...feeling a little panicked I get up and go towards the door,she stands in front of me with a flirty smile.

"You...Jacob Black are not leaving or going anywhere"...she puts her hand on my chest and shoves me down on the bed and stands over me as I'm looking up at her.

"I just don't...I"...She told me to shush...I smiled at her then grabbed her hand and brought her to me,she fell right on top of me and giggled as she straddled me,I put my hand on the back of her head and ran my fingers through her silky hair

pushing gently I brought her face down to me so our lips could meet. every time I kissed her she tasted so sweet and delicious,I never wanted to leave.

"Jake..when do you have to go home?"...looking at her sad face as she asked me.

"well I should go soon I know my dad must be worried,I never just leave without telling him where I'm going"...grabbing her hips and holding her tight.

"You should just call him to let him know where you are right now"

"yea I will do that,do you have a phone I can borrow?"...she hopped off me quickly and went to her desk and grabbed her phone,it was bright pink..I took it and looked at it funny.

"What's wrong? you can't use a pink phone?"...I laughed and dialed my dads number

I heard it ring twice and then my dad answered.

"Hey Dad it's me,I'm okay and I should be home soon"

"Jacob I was worried about you,Jared said you ran off after having a fight with him over Bella"

"Yeah..I did, but that's allover now,I'm done with her and..."...I hesitated for a second,not sure if I should tell him about Ava yet.

"What is it Jacob?tell me"

"Well ...I met someone out here,she's absolutely amazing,her name is Ava,and Dad...she's like me,I mean she's more like Leah I guess I should say"...I looked at Ava and smiled she smiled back looking a little excited.

"Are you saying she's part of a pack?"

"Yea Dad she is,and I've met her pack brothers and her parents,they've been very very nice"

"Well,as long as your safe and your happy I can't be upset with you"

"Thanks Dad,I'll talk to you again soon"

"Okay Jacob,Take care of yourself,come home soon"

"I will...I'll call you again "...I pressed end on the phone and handed it back to Ava.

"Well I take it that went very well?"

"Yea,my dad is really understanding,he's happy that I'm safe and that I called"

"He wasn't to shocked about me?"...I watched her as she seemed a little disappointed.

"He was more concerned about my safety I guess,but when he meets you it will be different"...I took her hand and held it in mine.

"I don't know how my parents would feel about me leaving home to go so far,I mean I want to go,I want to meet your Dad I want to meet Leah and get to know her too"...I watched her light up with excitement.

"I can honestly say I have never heard anyone say they wanted to meet Leah and act excited about it"...I laughed.

"Is she really that bad?"...I looked at her still laughing a little.

"Yep she really is!..well I think maybe I should go talk to your dad,maybe I can ask him about you going to La Push with me."

"Umm,we'll go together and see what he says,I have to say I'm a little nervous and scared at what he might say"

"Well I'm not going to leave your side Ava,c'mon lets go talk to him now"

"Right now Jake?"

"Yes,I have to get home now,I have to sort somethings out with my pack brothers,I abandoned them"

"Well alright"...I watched as she got up and went to the door and opened it,she waited for me and took my hand,we walked to the kitchen where her dad Joe was sitting,he saw us come in and gave us a smile.

"Good morning you two"

"Good morning"...I said and sat down,Ava sat next to me,she looked at her dad and seemed really nervous,I took her hand and squeezed lightly.

"Daddy,Umm...I..have to ask you something"...she said the last bit really fast. Joe looked at me with curiosity and I smiled lightly.

"What's going on here?what do you need to ask me?"...he then noticed us holding hands.

"Your not going to ask if you can go get married are you?"...I felt really nervous and wasn't even thinking that right now. He must have seen the shock in my face because he let out a loud laugh.

"Geez Dad NO,I just wanted to know if it would be ok If I could go back with Jacob? To La Push to meet his family."...She was squeezing my hand kinda hard now waiting for a reply.

"Well,I guess that would be all right...Beth...Beth"...He called for Ava's Mom,she came in and seen us all sitting down.

"Good morning all, Joe where's the fire huh"...she said as she smiled and playfully swatted his arm.

"No where Dear,Ava would like to go with Jake here and meet his family,I said yes already but want to know what you think?"...I watched as she looked at me and then at Ava and then to our intertwined fingers.

"Well Jake do you promise to watch over our Ava and keep her safe?"...She smiled at me a kind smile..

"Oh yes of course I will,I care for her and will make sure she's safe"...I looked at Ava and she looked at me,we got lost in each others eyes because her dad kept saying her name,she shook her head and looked at her dad.

"Huh, oh sorry Dad."she's was blushing a little,it was the first time I seen her blush and it briefly reminded me of Bella.I shook that thought out of my head then listened to Joe as he was talking to us.

"You can take the car so you can get there faster and safer"

"Thank You sir"...I held my hand out and shook his. Ava got up and hugged her Parents then ran to her room to pack. I followed right behind was quickly packing.

"Ava slow down hun"...she stopped and looked at me then ran over and jumped on me.

"Oh Jake I can't believe I'm going with you,I'm so happy"...She kissed me hard then went back to finishing packing up.

"I'm happy to"...I sat there and watched as she finished up and then put on her shoes. She went out and said goodbye to her parents and brothers and we left. We got into her dads car, he had a nice Toyota FJ cruiser,this was nicer than my rabbit and drove nice was better than my rabbit I guess,but I loved my car.

"how long do you think it will be before we get there Jake?

"Um I would say a couple hours,Maybe more if we stop for the night"...I looked over at her and smiled.

"Hmm,well when can we stop?"...I looked over at her and laughed.

"we haven't been driving more than a half hour and you already want to stop"

"Um..well...YES"...she shouted with a big grin.

"okay I will make a deal with you,we drive for another half hour and we'll stop"

"all right I can deal with that"...she sat back and played with the radio until she found some music she liked. we drove for about 15 more minutes and I looked over to see her sleeping,I figured I would just let her sleep while I kept driving.

Bella's POV

When I got home I sat in the truck for a little while,I wasn't looking forward to hearing what Charlie would say when he figured out I just got home,I pulled out my phone and called Jakes phone hoping he would answer

me,I felt so confused and so stupid for hurting my best friend like this. Of course it went strait to voicemail,I decided to call his house instead,It rang and then Billy answered.

"Hey Billy,It's Bella is Jacob home?"

"No Bella Sorry He's not home,he told me what happened,he's actually staying with a friend somewhere right now,If you talk to Jared tell him I talked to him"

"Why would Jared care where Jacob is?"

"Well earlier I was worried about Jake and Jared stopped by to apologize to him about everything that happened,he went to find Sam and get a search party going to find Jake"

"Oh I see,well I'm not really talking to Jared right now but I will leave him a text message to let him know you talked to Jake so they don't have to keep searching"

"Thanks Bella,and take care okay"

"Thank you too Billy,Bye"...I pressed end on my phone and then found Jared in my contacts,I sent him a quick Text to let him know Jake was found.

"Jared,I talked to Billy,he said Jacob was found,call off the search party~Bella...I pressed send then grabbing my keys I hopped out of the truck.

I walked up towards the door and it opened before I got there, I seen Charlie standing there looking at me, I looked back at him then walked by him with my head down.

"I was worried about you Bells,I was almost ready to go out and find you myself,where were you all night? with Jake?"

"No Dad I wasn't with Jake,I was with another friend,I was safe so don't worry so much,I'm not a little kid no more"...I turned and looked at him,he closed the door and looked at me a little sad.

"I know Bells,I just worry when you don't call or come home ya know"

"I'm sorry Dad,I promise next time I'll call you"...I started walking upstairs when my phone started to vibrate,I quickly grabbed it hoping it was Jake,It was a text from Jared ...

Bella Thanks for the text,I'm really sorry about upsetting you and for fucking everything up between you and Jake,I'll leave you alone from now on -Jared

reading it made me feel bad and think about how I'm hurting Jared,I went to my room and plopped on my bed,trying to think about what I should do next. I took my phone and texted him back.

"I'm sorry for the way I treated you,please don't leave me alone,I need you more than you think,will you come over?"~Bella...

"of course I'll come over Bella,If you still want me I will always be there for do you want me over?"-Jared

"Charlie's home so if you could maybe come to the window?~Bella

"LOL...the window huh?we'll okay I'll be there in 10 minutes so have it open"-Jared

"Yea,haha,I'll have it open for you.c-ya soon:)"~Bella

I was lying on the bed staring at my ceiling for a minute,then I rushed around my room and picked up the dirty clothes and shoved them in the hamper,then I quickly looked in the mirror and saw my puffy face from crying and my messy hair,I quickly ran a brush through my hair and sprayed on some body spray,then I went over and opened the window,I felt butterflies in my stomach like I was doing something I shouldn't but it still felt right. I sat back down on my bed and waited,I heard someone outside climbing the tree and knew he was here,Jared climbed in the window quietly,he looked at me sitting there and I looked at him standing there,he looked perfect,all I could think in that moment was how much I wanted to touch his warm body. I couldn't speak at all so I just stood up and looked at him,I lifted my hand to touch him but hesitated and then put my hand back down. Jared placed his very warm hand on my cheek,I closed my eyes and took in the touch,he felt so warm,I then felt his lips on mine and those butterflies were back again,I reached my right hand up and touched his side ever so gently, my fingers fluttered along the waistband of his shorts. My other hand on his chest,I pressed myself closer to him,he slowly reached his hand up under my shirt and touched my back,he slowly released the kiss and looked at me while he lifted my shirt off. I no longer could hold back as I quickly unbuttoned his shorts,he did the same to my jeans. All of a sudden we were quickly taking each others clothes off till there was nothing left to take off and we were kissing in quick heated passion,he pushed me on my bed then ran his hands up my thighs,I let out a moan and realized how loud I was and clamped my hand hand on my mouth and looked at him.I grabbed his hands and brought him down on top of me,I placed my mouth next to his ear and quietly said shhh,I gently bit his ear then wrapped my legs around his waist. Jared kissed my neck and ran his right hand down my side and then back up gently squeezing my breast. I squeezed my thighs harder around him as he slowly entered me,I wanted to scream out in pleasure so bad,he knew this and smiled at me,I lifted my head slightly and bit his bottom lip sucking it in my mouth then releasing it with a pop,he smashed his mouth to mine after that, kissing me hard I felt his tongue moving with rhythm to our hips as we made love quietly. We never said a single word to each other but I felt like we were apologizing to one another I felt like we were saying we loved each other.
