Twisted Love Chapter 6

Rosalie looked down at me… she smiled. I stared back at her… but the tears kept coming. I was an emotional wreck.

"Bella love… I'm so sorry… I shouldn't have done this to you. Look at you." She laughed. "You are a wreck. Stop crying." She reached down and wiped my cheeks off. Her cold hands sent shivers down my spine. My cheeks flushed. She laughed again. "Edward was right… I love when you do that."

I smiled and laughed. Edward always loved it when I flushed. That was one of the things that he loved the most. I looked up at Jacob and he smiled at me. I could tell that he was happy… happy for me that is. I looked around at everyone. They were all starring and smiling at me. It made me feel…. uncomfortable. The stared at me like I was a new born baby… but I wasn't. I was just an emotional girl who just got her best friend back. I smiled at the thought. I looked at Edward and I could tell that he wished that he could read my mind. I was tired of being halfway on the ground.

"I wanna get up please." I said.

Everyone moved at once to help me up. It was weird… was there something that they weren't telling me? Why were they all staring at me and wanting to help me all the time? I became suspicious. I let Jacob help me up… since he was the one supporting me. Right after I stood up, Alice ran up to me and hugged me… but not too tight this time. She liked to hug me... but I'm not sure why. I loved Alice… she was like a sister to me… just like Rose. I had two sisters… and I was loving it. I turned around and ran to Rosalie. She took my hug freely and didn't back away. I was so thrilled.

*Later*

I was sitting in my room… in the middle of my room… just thinking. Thinking about everything… Jacob…. Rosalie… and trying to find out if they were hiding anything. What if they were hiding something? What could it be? Was Jacob in on it? Alice? What weren't they telling me?

"Bella!" someone screamed. It came from my window. I jumped up and ran to my window. There in my tree was… Jacob. I smiled at him.

"What are you doing? You're going to fall!" I laughed as I saw him struggling.

"Sorry Bella. I'm not exactly a cat you know… I can't do these kinds of things." Jacob grumbled as he struggled more.

I stood there and laughed. Jacob… the werewolf… was trying to climb a tree. I stared at him. "You're going to fall and hurt yourself Jacob."

"Well… even if I did fall off this tree… I wouldn't die remember?" He smiled. He thought he was so funny… but he was. I started laughing even harder. My legs felt numb and I grabbed the window sill for support. That freaked him out.

"Bella! Are you going to pass out again?!?! Dang it! I wish I was part cat. Trees suck!" Jacob said.

This killed me. I started laughing so hard. Watching his struggle was so funny. He wasn't good at these kinds of things. "I'm fine Jacob. Want me to come outside instead?"

He smiled. "I wish you wouldn't have suggested that five minutes ago." He dropped to the ground. "Hurry up!"

I walked downstairs and ran into Charlie. "Hey Bells… where are you going?"

"Jacob's outside." I replied. "We're just going to hang out and talk… ok?"

"Jacob… I like that kid… smart boy. Go ahead… but don't be out late ok?"

I smiled at Charlie. "Sure dad… I won't be gone long." I walked out the front door and looked around for Jacob. He was sitting under the tree. I walked over to him. "Hey Jacob." I sat down next to him.

"Hey Bells! This is way easier than climbing this stupid tree. Man… I don't know how cats can do it."

I laughed… I couldn't help but laugh. "You're so goofy."

"That's me!" He smiled wide.

This was a perfect time to ask him… ask him if they were keeping something from me. But I didn't know how to ask him… just I go right out and say it? Or do I trick him into telling me? I got nervous at this point… and my body started shaking. He must have realized that something was wrong.

"What's wrong Bella?" His voice sounded more worried than usual.

I looked at him straight in the eye. "If I asked you a question, would you answer it truthfully? And not lie?"

He didn't look away when he answered. "Of course Bella. I would never lie to you."

I took a deep breath. "Ok…" My body started shaking again. "Is there something you're not telling me? Something that everyone is keeping from me? Something that you guys don't want me to know?"

He looked away at this point… and I knew that I was right. There was something that they were keeping from me… now I just had to figure out what.
