Chapter 2- Jacob's POV
I woke up early in the morning, with Bella in my arms; she had her leg wrapped around my waist, and her arm around my chest. She looks so damn cute when she sleeps. I want to kiss her so so so bad, and to be able to hold her in my arms whenever I want. But she hasn't even broken up with the bloodsucker yet… but… what if she doesn't… what if last night was just her blowing up… what if she loves him too much to leave him… but he DID hurt her. I pulled her tightly to me, wishing she'd never leave me.
"Jacob?" Bella yawned; I didn't even realize she was awake.
"Mornin' Bells. How'd you sleep?" I half smiled at her, pushing the thoughts of her leaving me out of my mind.
She smiled back, "I slept great, no nightmares for a change. How about you?"
I kissed the top of her head, "Wonderful." Because you were in my arms. If only I could sleep like that every night. And wake up in my morning with this beautiful woman in my arms.
Bella fidgeted with my hands, nibbling on her lower lip. "That's good, that's really good…"
I titled her face up to meet my eyes, "Is something wrong Bella?" Please please please, don't regret this…
"Nothing, I just… I still don't…" She blushed, and I could see tears well up in her eyes.
I hugged her closer to me, "What is it Bella? You can tell me anything!"
She sighed and mumbled, "I have to go home… and I know he's going to be there waiting for me."
Awww Bella… "You never have to go anywhere honey, you can stay here for as long as you want." Oh god please do, forever…
"Thanks Jake, but I have to get my stuff eventually. Plus, I don't think Charlie would be too fond of me staying here every night." She laughed lightly, imagining what Charlie would say.
I laughed with her, "Shotgun time! But seriously Bella, I'll go with you to get your stuff and you can stay here again tonight. I'll worry about Charlie. The bonfire is tonight, we can use that as our excuse."
Bella pulled away from my embrace and stood up, smoothing out her clothes. I immediately missed her warmth and the feel of her in my arms.
"Are you coming?" She cocked her head to the side, waiting for me to get up.
I shook my head and stood up, "Yupp! I'll get my car." I unlocked my door and strolled out into the living room, my dad sat watching TV in his chair.
"Good morning kids. Where ya headed?" Billy asked, smiling at me.
"Mornin Dad, just headed to Bella's. Be right back!" I sent him a look, telling him not to ask questions.
Billy nodded and turned his attention to the TV again. I slung my arm around Bella's shoulder and led her to my car. I opened her door for her and shut it behind her. I was over to my door in a split second. I put the car in gear and headed down the highway to Forks.
Bella was silent for a few minutes before she broke the silence, "Jake? What if he's there? What do I do?"
I could hear and smell (yes I did indeed say smell) her anxiety. "Bella, honey, if he's here, I'll smell him, and then you can choose to go in or not. I'll be right with you the whole time."
She looked up at me, nodding her head, "Promise?"
I kissed the back of her soft, cool hand, "I swear, I won't leave your side."
We approached the house a couple minutes later; I pulled into the driveway and sat there, waiting for Bella to say something. I cracked my door, and sniffed. Blech, definitely icy, he was here.
"Bells, he's here. My guess is up in your room." I paused, "Do you want to go in?"
Bella gnawed on her lip, "Please come with me. I can't go alone."
"Of course sweetheart, just hold my hand." I climbed out of the car and opened her door; she slipped her left hand into my right, and followed me into the house. I twisted the doorknob and walked inside, gagging at the stench. I pulled Bella up against the side of my chest, and walked up the stairs, opening her door at the top.
I flipped on the light and, of course, there he stood, by the window, his hand covering his face.
"Bella," Edward growled. "Where have you been? I've been worried sick about you!"
I felt Bella tremble slightly, so I pulled her against me, "Shhh Bella, its okay."
"DOG! Get your hands off my fiancé!" Edward snarled, taking a step closer to us. I growled, pushing Bella farther behind me, still holding her hand.
"Edward. I'm not… your fiancé… anymore…" Bella trembled against my back. I turned and pulled her into a hug.
"I've got you, everything's gonna be okay." I kissed the top of her head and turned back around.
I glared at Edward, and he glared back. "Bells get your bag. Start packing your stuff." I spoke without looking away from Edward.
Bella squeezed my hand and walked to her closet, away from Edward, and grabbed a big duffel bag. She came back over to my side, because Edward was standing next to her dresser.
"Edward, can you move so we can get out of here?" I gritted my teeth, trying to be the slightest bit polite to the bloodsucker.
Edward snarled again, "No way. She's not going anywhere with you, dog, she's going back to my house with me."
I took a step closer to him, "She's going with ME, not you! I'm taking her to La Push, and she's staying with me tonight, so don't wait around here." I pushed him out of the way and began pulling out drawers of Bella's dresser and chucking them on the bed. "Bells, pack everything you'll need. Then go grab your bathroom stuff and leave a note for Charlie. I'll be here, so come get me when you're done."
Bella began packing random clothes into her bag, and then walked to her bathroom. I watched Edward's every move, making sure he didn't flinch in Bella's general direction. I heard Bella began her descent down the stairs, and about half way I heard a crash. I spun around and ran down the stairs. Bella was lying at the bottom, groaning.
"Bella, honey, are you okay?" I asked, frantically searching her body, I didn't smell any blood so I knew she couldn't be hurt that bad.
"I'm fine Jacob, just a couple bruises. Help me up?" I immediately scooped her up in my arms. I look down to see bruises beginning to form on her legs and her arms. I kissed her forehead, letting my lips linger there for a second.
"I love you Bella, so much." I murmured against her forehead. Bella tilted her head back, so her lips were almost touching mine.
"Go ahead Jacob," She whispered. "I want you too."
I hesitantly let my lips touch hers. Her warm soft lips moved with mine in an unfamiliar way, she was the only girl, no, woman, that I had ever kissed. Our first kiss didn't last very long, only a few seconds, until I heard I crash. I looked up to see Edward, his eyes flat black, holding a chunk of broken stair rail.
"Bella." He snarled. "How could you? I thought you loved me?!" He began walking down the stairs, at a human pace. I tightened my grip on Bella, and began walking backwards towards the door. I quickly reached down and grab both of Bella's bags and half ran backwards to my car. I quickly placed Bella and her bags in the passenger seat.
"Stay here. And if I tell you to get the hell outta here, then go. I'll be fine; I'll meet you at the house. Love you Bells." I knew the chances of me getting outta here anytime soon we're slim to none.
I closed her door and walked over to Edward, who had followed us into the yard. "Just go. She doesn't want you anymore, it's over Edward, get over it."
"Ha! Yeah right, like I'm gonna leave. I'll always be here waiting, waiting for you to screw up, or better yet, imprint. I bet Bella hasn't thought of that, have you love?" He leaned around me to look at Bella. "What happens when he imprints on some girl and he leaves you? This love is only temporary, I'll love you forever Bella."
I chuckled, I already imprinted… on Bella. A long time ago. I'll never leave her.
Edward looked stunned for a minute, "But she doesn't… does she?"
No. She doesn't know, yet. But she will soon.
Edward snarled and stepped towards me, so close I could reach out and touch him. I crouched down slightly, ready to phase at any moment.
"Just go bloodsucker. I don't want to kill you, but I will if you take one more step towards her." I threatened.
Edward gritted his teeth, "If its what Bella wants, then I won't object."
I nodded and turned to my car, getting in the drivers side. I glanced at Edward one more time, and pulled away from the house. I sped down the highway towards La Push, checking my rearview mirror until we crossed the boundary line.
