Twisted Love Chapter 3

I kept running. I couldn't stop! I didn't want to… I just wanted to run away… run away from everything. I just wanted to lock myself in my room and never come out. I wanted to hide my face… never show my ugly face that people hated so much. I just wanted to hide. But someone caught up to me… and I knew it wasn't Rosalie.

"Bella! Bella stop! Please!" said Jacob. I'm glad he followed me. I needed someone to talk to… since I didn't have Rose anymore. I decided to stop and fell to the ground exhausted. My legs were so tired. I just collapsed on the ground.

"Bella! Are you okay?" He knelt down beside me. I could tell he was worried… but I just couldn't stop.

"Y-y-yes…" I stammered. I couldn't hold back the tears. They were flooding from my face.

"Bella… you need to get up." He said as he grabbed my arms and tried to pull me up. My body was limb so I couldn't stand. "Bella… can you stand?"

My vision was blurry. "No…" I said as the verge of passing out. Suddenly, I could feel cold hands picking me up. "Rosalie?" I said quickly.

"No Bells… it's not Rosalie." Edward said as he started walking.

I started squirming and fighting for him to put me down. "Let go of me! Where's Jacob?"

"He's right beside you! I'm not putting you down! Stop squirming!" he said. He tightened his grip and I knew that I was going to lose this fight. I couldn't argue with a vampire.

"Put her down Edward. I was handling this fine even before you came." Jacob growled at Edward.

"You're not telling me what to do. Rosalie wants to talk to her. I'm doing Rosalie a favor… so chill!" Edward yelled.

Jacob took a step back. I knew he didn't want to start anything with Edward. I couldn't go through anymore pain… and hurt Rosalie even more than Jack and I already had. "Fine… but I'm coming with you. I don't want anything to happen to Bella." Jacob commented.

"What do you think we're going to do to her? Suck all the blood out of her body? We would never! How dare you accuse us of that!"

"I never said that you were going to do anything! I'm just going to be there in case she passes out again! Chill!"

Edward sighed. "I'm sorry for everything Jacob… but I just can't forgive you for what you did. I don't know if I ever can… but we need to be cool… for everyone's sake."

I knew he was talking about me. Tears came out of my eyes again… like a water fall. I wish Jacob never made the Volturi mad. If he wouldn't have… the Volturi wouldn't have tried to kill Jacob but killed Emmett instead. I missed Emmett… was always so funny… so full of life. But he was gone now… and I had to accept that. We all did.

"I'm sorry for everything too. I didn't want any of this to happen… Emmett was a good guy. Everyone liked him… I know I defiantly did… I wish I could take back what I did… but I can't." Jacob said.

"I accept your apology… but Rosalie won't. I don't think she ever will. She loved Emmett… and I don't think she'll ever love me as much as she loved Emmett… but I'll have to face that. I love her… and I'm very sad for her."

"I know and I'm so sorry… so… friends?" Jacob stuck out his hand.

Edward looked at it. I starred at it… hoping he would take it. I just wanted to grab Edward's arm and make him grab it. These were the two boys that were so important to me… I just wanted them to be friends!

"Sure…" Edward grabbed Jacob's hand.

I sighed in relief… but I wondered how long this would last. I wondered if I would get in the way… or if Rosalie would. I could just only hope and wait that this friendship would last a lifetime.
