Reneslec Chapter 6 Invisible JAKExLEAH, a twilight fanfic

I just had to throw in a Leah/Jacob..(:

Invisible - Taylor Swift

My heart shatters in my chest as I watch him watch her. She talks excitedly, her voice like a bubbling stream. She flips those flawless bronze ringlets over her shoulder and stares up at him with those deep, intelligent chocolatey eyes. Why does their kind have to be so absolutely gorgeous? How can I compare to her, in all her goddess-like perfection?

Renesmee is finally Jake's age, and now he is just waiting on her to make a move signaling she is ready for their relationship, at which point he will tell her of the imprint. Too bad for him it seems her feelings remain that of a best friend.

I am in my wolf form, laying out in the sun in the Cullen's backyard. Jake is in human form, thank God. I don't want to have to hear what he is thinking about her. She is nestled under his muscular, tan arm as they lean up against a tree in the shade, another thing I have to be thankful for. When she gets in the sun, her blemish-free ivory skin glows, enhancing her beauty.

She is telling him some story that I don't bother tuning in to. He smiles down at her, those deep-set nearly-black eyes of his lighting up and sparkling. How I love his smile..

They begin walking, leaving the protection of the tree's shade. Her skin lights up radiantly and his cropped black hair glistens in the noonday sun.

She can't see the way your eyes
Light up when you smile
She'll never notice how you stop and stare whenever she walks by
And you can't see me wanting you the way you want her
But you are everything to me

They walk all around the Cullen's large yard, talking aimlessly. Well, it is mostly her doing the talking. He listens intently, hanging on her every word. When her constant rambling reminds him of something, his face twists into an adorable little grin that I know very well as marking he has something to say. But she just keeps talking away, not even noticing.

He stares at her as if she holds the meaning to life itself. As if she is the rarest jewel in the world, which I suppose she just might be. But hey, I'm a female shape-shifter. I'm rare too! But our rarities are different. While she is a sparkling diamond, I'm some kind of mutant animal. I'm not sweet, bubbly, funny, kind-hearted, and all around drop-dead gorgeous.

Several times Jake looked over in my general dierction. My head would pop up, tilting to the side, wondering if he was going to have something to say to me or perhaps just notice me. But it was as if I didn't even exist. He didn't register me laying there, faithfully watching over him just in case.

And I just wanna show you she don't even know you
She's never gonna love you like I want to
And you just see right through me
But if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible
Yeah, mmm

Finally, Jake has his chance to launch into a story of his own. This I listen to. I could listen to Jake talk all day. He is telling about the time he chased some leech away from Bella when Edward left her. Back before I became a wolf and my whole world flipped upside down and inside out.

He is so in to the story, his eyes excited and his heart beating fast. But then agian, his heart always races when he is around her. Jake just has this scorching fire in him though, burning through his eyes and heating up his words with passion.

But though she listens to his story with interest, she doesn't look at him like I do. Not with the amount of adoration and devotion. He's just her best friend, and that's all he'll ever be to her, that much is clear. But he can't see it. No, he can't even see the obvious because he is so blinded by the stupid imprint! Imprints have ruined my life on two occasions now. Maybe they'll get in a third victory before my mangled heart gives out.

There's a fire inside of you
That can't help but shine through
She's never gonna see the light
No matter what you do
And all I think about is how to make you think of me
And everything that we could be

I watch them, seeing all his signs of wanting to talk or wanting to hold her hand or wanting to go a certain way. And I watch her being completely oblivious, doing whatever she pleases without giving his wants a second thought. But he just continues to stare at her absolutely captivated and with never ending, pure love.

As the sun begins to make its way towards the horizon, I let out a howl. Jake's head snaps over to me, looking puzzled. I give him a wolfy grin, nodding my big silver head back towards the forest. I want to race or have fun or something! I've been in this same position all day!

"Not now, Leah." he waves me off, returning to his conversation with the girl he loves. I glare at them. How could he just brush me off that way, as if I'm some sort of needy lap dog?

The sky lights up in shades of orange, pink, and blue. Jake and Renesmee disappear inside the house. I stay out even as the night chill settles, watching over the house. Not for the leeches, but for Jake, who will probably be sleeping in there on the couch or something, vulnerable.

Sure, the Cullens might not sleep, but they don't always have their guard up. I always do when it comes to my Jacob. I'll always watch after him, even if I never work up the nerve to look into his lovely dark eyes and tell him how I feel.

Like shadows in a faded light
Oh, were invisible
I just wanna look in your eyes
And make you realize
I just wanna show you she don't even know you
Baby let me love you, let me want you

Suddenly, the back door opens again and Jake steps out. I leap to my feet, on high alert and awating alpha's orders. He stares at me, focusing in on me for the first time. "Leah? Why are you still out there?" He asks in puzzlement.

I release a long whine. He stares at me for a moment, and then jogs over. He stands in front of me, looking up at me. "You don't have to always be on the look out. I'll be okay." he tells me, patting the side of my neck. I revel in the feeling of his fingers in my fur.

I nuzzle his chest with my big nose. "Oh, don't get all mushy on me, Leah." he laughs. I woof at him playfully. He smiles up at me, eyes twinkling. Oh, that smile.

You just see right through me
But if you only knew me
We could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable
Instead of just invisible
She can't see the way your eyes
Light up when you smile...
