Epiphany

Chapter Two

Jacob's POV

So, there I stood after just phasing back. This was impossible.

Why the hell did Paul always have to hide my clothes on me? Oh, well. I'll just steal a pair of his shorts.

I went to his sack of clothes and grabbed a pair of shorts out of it, finding my phone. Mhmm.

I pulled on the shorts and walked over to the dried up pond, sitting next to it. The sounds of the woods soothed me.

I sat there and sat there for what felt like hours and hours just enjoying the calm.

For the first time in a long time, I felt calm and cool, just by myself. There was always other people around me, the pack, my dad, my sister…

Always someone there and I could never really be alone. I just I could understand why no one trusted me to be alone. I was a complete and utter disaster.

Ever since I got that invitation, I have been emotionally damaged.

As always, Quil thought hooking up with some girl and fucking her brains up. That just wasn't me. I couldn't do that. Not that I hadn't thought about it.

Sam and Leah were the only ones who understood. Sam understood because of what happened with Leah, also understand what the whole triangle thing was putting Bella through, and Leah understood because she was currently in my position.

Bella Cullen had completely broken my heart by marrying my mortal enemy.

My thoughts were interrupted by my cell phone ringing. I instantly picked it up without looking at the caller I.D.

"Hello?" I now only spoke in monotone.

"Son, you need to come home. Charlie is here and he needs to talk to you." I sighed deeply and rubbed my hand over my face. I was more and more tired nowadays.

"Is it about her?" He sighed which told me that it was Bella. Just thinking her name now usually sent me into tears.

"Yes, son. I'm not sure if its bad or good, but he was told by Cullen to tell you." Now, I was confused.

"Wait, what is it?" He sighed again, but it didn't seem sad.

"They are coming bad." That immediately got my attention.

"Say that again?" There was a laugh that came from him and then he stopped.

"What I have gotten from Charlie is that Bella had some mental breakdown and they are flying back in." I hung up and ran back home as fast as I could without phasing. It only took a good five minutes.

I saw the cruiser parked outside my garage and I walked into the house, seeing Charlie and my dad sitting down with a beer.

"Hey, Charlie." He nodded and gave me a small smile.

"Hey, Jacob. Did your dad tell you the news?" I shrugged.

"Only a short and sloppy version. What IS going on?" He lightly chuckled.

"Edward didn't give me much to go on. He left it very short and simple. He said that when they got to wherever they were going that he was putting away their stuff and she went to take a shower. He went in there after an hour to check on her and she was in a ball on the floor, crying. He said that she couldn't even utter a word." He looked frightened by this and, to be truthful, so was I.

Something had sent Bella into a catatonic state.

What could it possibly be?

"Do you have any idea why that happened?" He shook his head, looking defeated.

"I wish I did. For some reason, she had Edward tell me to tell you. He said that he has a 'feeling' that she is going to want to see you when the plane lands." I nodded, still confused.

"Why didn't you talk to Bella?" He shrugged sighed.

"I asked him the same thing and he said that he wasn't sure if she knew how to talk anymore. He said that she wouldn't even answer his questions with a simple nod. This shit scares me. I swear if he put her back in THAT state again, I don't care if they lock me away for life. I will kill him." You and me both, I thought to myself.

"Charlie, you need to calm down. He was probably just blowing it out of proportion. They probably had a fight or something like that." Charlie nodded at m dad's calm voice. How could he possibly be so calm about this? Bella is having a mental breakdown and he acts as if everything is peaches and cream.

Internally, I was freaking out over this. What would drive them back here after being gone a day, maybe?

"I should probably hit the shower and head over to Sam's." Both men nodded and I did as I said.

I took the world's fastest shower in history and got dressed in real clothes, climbing onto my bike. I rode the short distance to Sam's and the whole pack was outside, laughing.

The looked to me and seemed in shock. I unstraddled my bike and sat between Paul and Seth, seeing everyone's shocked eyes.

"Okay. Spill, Jake. What happened?" I raised an eyebrow to Collin and everyone laughed, including myself.

"What are you talking about?" Paul laughed and patted my back.

"Man, you look like you just got the best fucking blow job in the world! You have a shit-eating grin on your face. What's up with you?" I rolled my eyes.

"Nothing happened, ok? Charlie was at the house when I got home and Cullen told him to relay a message to me." Suddenly they shifted to pack mode.

"What did the leech say?" I rolled my eyes again, runningmy fingers through my hair.

"Just that they are coming back already. Bella had some kind of mental breakdown after they arrived." I recognized the look of sorrow in their eyes as I recanted what Charlie told me about.

"Over what?" I shrugged and closed my eyes, taking a deep breath before opening them again.

"Who the fuck knows? He told Charlie that while he was unpacking that Bella went into the bathroom to freshen up from the flight. After a while, he went to check on her and she was in a ball on the floor." They all looked confused until Sam's eyes narrowed in what was a mixture of anger and pity.

"You don't think...?" He looked to Paul and they were slight for a moment until Paul started to tremble in anger.

"That would explain her freaking out. Fucking leech." I was confused.

"What?" Paul calmed down and patted my shoulder.

"You don't think that maybe they did what she told you they would, do you?" That thought made me tremble and my wolf was crying out.

He wanted to rip Edward Cullen apart for even thinking of touching her like that.

"I don't know. Charlie said they had just arrived there." I took deep breaths to calm down the wolf before he did something drastic.
