I got so many reviews for the last chapter. seriously guys thanks so much =) aaaaaaand now, here's the drama i promised you. but don't worry all you lemon fans! more to come.

Bella's POV

"Oh. My. God." I moaned into my pillow, my head still under the covers.

I felt Edward come back on the bed again and place his hand on my lumpy form. "Bella, love."

"What?"

"Please come out from there… I'm so sorry. I really am… I didn't even know Emmet was coming. Usually I can hear him but for some reason I didn't hear anyone at all and-"

I shushed him and threw the blanket off of my head. "I'm so embarrassed."

Edward held one of his shirts out to me to put on. Begrudgingly, I did. "I know you're embarrassed, love, and I'm so terrible sorry."

"It's ok." I mumbled, still feeling the hotness in my cheeks. "I just don't even know what to do right now."

"I know and I'm sorry." He laid back next to me and took my hand in his. "I'll get him back, I promise."

"Don't worry about it… I just don't think I can face him or Rosalie ever again."

"You'll have to see them sooner or later."

I shook my head. "I cant. It was hard enough exposing myself like that in front of you… but Emmet and Rosalie too? It's just too much."

"They didn't see anything if that makes it any better." I could tell by his tone that he was truly sorry and didn't really know what to say to me.

I snuggled closer to him and his arm pulled me close. However it was in an entirely (much to my total disappointment) nonsexual manner. Just then I knew that we couldn't rekindle the feelings from earlier. "Do you think it really would have happened?"

"What?"

"You know…" I struggled to find the right words. "Do it…"

"Oh." I felt his discomfort instantly. "Well… I don't know, Bella. I wouldn't want to hurt you. In hindsight I'm glad that he interrupted us. You could have gotten seriously injured."

I rolled my eyes. Responsible Edward has fully taken place of the sex-crazed man that I had been kissing a few minutes before. "I don't think it would have been a bad thing… I mean it was more good than bad for sure…. Right?"

"I don't know. I loved what we did do though, it showed that I have a lot of self control. But any more than that and I don't think I could have promised anything. You certainly do drive me wild." He growled into my ear, sending those shivers down my spine.

A few hours later I was fully asleep when I heard my phone begin to ring. I looked over at Edward's clock and saw that it was two in the morning. I was with Edward and all of the Cullens were in the house so I assumed the only person that would be calling me would be Charlie. Still half asleep, I stumbled out of bed and groped around in the darkness for my purse.

"Let me help you." I heard from the darkness, making me jump. It was only Edward, holding out my phone, his skin slightly shimmering in the moonlight.

"Thanks." I looked down at the screen, it was Jake. I hadn't spoken to him in months… I answered it. "Jake?"

"Bella!" I heard him yell. I could tell his was upset or maybe out of breath. "Where are you?"

"Jake? I'm at Edwards… what's going on?" I sat down on the edge of the bed and Edward sat next to me, looking slightly nervous.

"You need to come to the reservation. Now."

"It's the middle of the night. Why-"

He cut me off. "Now, Bella. Please. You're in danger and we need to talk. Come to the reservation."

"Danger?"

Edward's head whipped around to face mine. "What danger?"

"Bells I can't talk about it right now, I'm breaking the rules. I'm not supposed to be talking to you., just hurry." The phone clicked. He had hung up on me.

I stared at the phone dumbly. "I need to leave."

"Why?" Edward looked nervous. He thought, as did I, that the danger was far behind us.

"I don't know." I started pulling on my pants and looking around for shoes. "I just know I have to go see what's going on."

"I'm coming with you." Edward told me.

"No. I need to go alone. You don't get along with Jake and We both know what he thinks about you… I need to just go talk to him." I grabbed my keys from the nightstand. "I'll call you if I'm in any real danger I promise."

He swiftly took my face in his hands, forcing me to look at him. "Bella, if Jacob said there is danger somewhere, there is no way I'm going to let you go out alone."

I pulled away. "Edward, it's probably nothing. He just needs me."

"Fine. Leave and go talk to him, but I'll be there soon to get you." He sighed, opening the bedroom door for me.

A few moments later I was flying down the streets towards my house. When I pulled up, I didn't immediately see Jake, but as I got out of the car, I saw him step from the shadows. He looked just the same as bufore with his russet skin and dark hair and soulful eyes. However, his old smile was nowhere to be seen.

"Jake." I started nervously. "What's up?"

"I'm glad you came. I know I promised myself I'd never speak to you again, but there is something you have to know."

"What?" His somber tone made me nervous.

"I know I'm breaking the tribal laws but I didn't know what else to do." He shifted nervously from foot to foot. "You're in a lot of danger."

"Jake, please, stop dancing around the subject and just tell me what's wrong."

"There's a new vampire out for revenge against you."

My blood froze in my veins. "What?"

"The redhead one…Victoria had a sister or whatever named Rachael… She knows what went down between all of us and now she's looking for revenge."

I felt like I was going to pass out. It was like I was spinning. "How sure are you?" I whispered.

"Very sure. We just chased her way past the Canadian border… but she'll be back soon enough." He came closer to me and took one of my hands. "But I can help you."

"How?" I asked, holding back tears.

"I can keep you safe. If you're with the Cullens, I can't do anything for you… but if you come with me I can help."

"What do you mean."

"I miss you, Bells." There was a new tenderness in his voice. "I don't want anything to happen to you."

"I know, Jake."

Suddenly I felt one of his massive arms wrap around my waist and his other hand grip my face. "No you have no idea how much I've missed you, Bella."

I didn't understand what was going on. My heart beat faster and I nervously tried to squirm from his grip. "Jake… Where is this going?"

"I loved you once and I still love you. I want you to be safe and I can keep you safe. Just leave the Cullens behind. They're dangerous."

I put my hands firmly against his chest and tried to push him away. "Woah, woah, woah. Stop it, Jake."

He looked genuinely confused. "Stop what?"

"This. You can't just run around grabbing me like this."

Jake just looked at me. I couldn't explain then and I wouldn't be able to explain now exactly how he looked. He was sad. Pure and simple. "Bella, I love you and I'm not going to ever let you go. I am going to keep you safe and out of danger."

"Stop, Jake. You-"

I was firmly cut off. I was stunned, hurt, confused. Jake was kissing me. Full on kissing me. Shocked can't even describe it. I tried pulling away, beating my hands against his chest and pulling on his hair to try to unlatch his lips from mine. Nothing worked. I began to panic and as that started I felt my body tense up and I froze.

Then Jake suddenly, quietly, released me. But as soon as I was about to chastise him, a quiet voice suddenly broke the silence. "Bella?"

I whipped my head around and in the light of a street lamp stood Edward. His face looked so pained that I felt my heart lurch. I knew that vampires couldn't cry and that this was as close as they got. I was about to ask him what was wrong, then I realized that he had seen me kissing Jake! Yes, it wasn't my fault, but I suppose to an outside party it would have looked so incriminating. Edward had seen me kissing Jake…

Oh no! will edward leave bella? will the wedding be cancelled? will bella turn the tables and find that jake had been what she wanted all along and ditch edward, leaving him to find the volturri and end his own life or be forced to roam the world forever alone, lamenting his lost love? review to find out!3
