Previously on the Ex Girlfriend? Or Imprint?
Holy mother of god. I just imprinted. On my Ex-girlfriend.
"Hey Bells," I said, as casually as I could.
I saw Quil slap his forehead from the corner of my eye.
"Hey Bells?" She exclaimed as Quil stepped through the threshold "That's all you have to say to me? That's great. You have now become a complete Martian. Besides, you just broke my heart, not 48 hours ago. Even when you promised you wouldn't, you did. Let's not forget this is the only time you had spoken to me since you broke my hymen. So congratulations, the Jacob I fell in love with is now dead. Why don't you go fuck Paul or something?" And she slammed the door in my face.
Well shit. My imprint hates me.
Now, On the Ex Girlfriend? Or Imprint?
BPOV
As soon as the door slammed shut, I threw my back against it and slid down until my ass hit the floor. I didn't recognise the man Jacob had become, where was the man who told me he was 'prepared to be annoyingly persistent, as long as I liked him the best'? The man who joked to me about 'holding out for someone with a stronger stomach' when Mike was in the bathroom puking? I missed him, so much.
But, if I was being completely honest I doubt I would take him back, at least not without making him work for it. Because he means more to me than Edward ever did, because not only was he my best friend and an – albeit recent – lover, he was also the sunshine in the dark abyss that was my life, and the reason for me to keep living. That's why I jumped off the cliff, that's why I tried to kill myself. Because why keep living if the reason for living didn't care for you anymore?
I was sobbing into my knees – again – when I felt Quil slide down beside me.
"Maybe-" Quil started, "Maybe, you should hear him out."
I spun my head around so quickly I was sure I got whiplash, but at the moment I didn't care. What did he just say?
He held his hands up in surrender. "I'm just saying, there must be some ulterior motive or something going on with him. You didn't see how happy he was once you guys finally got together. He could've been kneed in the balls and gone down smiling."
"And...What's your point? Doesn't excuse his actions, or what he just did out on the porch! I mean, was that the start of some apology, or did he just think I would happily think the sun shined out of his ass again if he acted like nothing happened? I mean, at least Edward had the fucking decency to never to show up again, and let me try to recover, and his rejection wasn't nearly as bad as Jacob's."
He looked confused.
"I thought Edward was your 'soul mate'." He said.
I got up and walked to the couch. "I thought so too, but Jacob is just...everything I have ever wanted! Or ever will want. But y'know, life has a way of fucking itself up for the worst." I snorted.
"You're never going to get over him are you?" Quil asked, sitting next to me.
"Jacob?" He nodded in confirmation, "I don't think so, but I said the same thing about Edward, and then I fell in love with Jacob deeper than I was in love with Edward. So maybe I'll meet someone else and love him even more than Edward and Jacob combined. Doubt it though, this time just feels different. It's not just my heart that was shattered this time, but my soul as well, my personality, everything. I can't be without him, I don't know how." My voice broke.
"Oh Bella." Quil sighed and put his arm over my shoulder and hugged me to his chest. I closed my eyes as I listened to his heart beat.
I opened my eyes when I felt him push a piece of hair out of my face, gazing into his never-ending black eyes that so much resembled Jacob's, when suddenly he was Jacob. I saw him lean in towards me as I leaned towards him. Our lips were only millimetres apart when the door burst open.
"What the FUCK?"
I leapt away from the couch (and Quil) so I was sitting on the armchair, the picture of calm – not.
Jacob stood there, shaking and spluttering.
"Hey Jake!" Quil said, his voice two octaves too high.
Jacob had been staring at me incredulously before his eyes glared at him.
"Hey Quil." He spat. "Lucky I got here when I did, eh?"
I was silent until I was sure I wouldn't blow a gasket.
"What are you doing here Jacob?" I asked, deadly calm.
"I never left. I was outside on the lawn, watching through the window."
"So you decided to burst through the door randomly?" I asked, thought I knew it was anything but random.
"Don't play games with me Bella," he snarled, "You were about to kiss him! How could you, after all we've been through, how could you cheat on me?"
"Excuse me? How could I? That's rich, coming from you! After all we've been through!" I mocked him, "Besides, I didn't cheat on you, you broke up with me! It's not cheating if there is no relationship! So I can date whoever I want!"
They both looked at me, shocked.
"Not that I want to date Quil!" I said, and then Quil looked hurt. "Ugh! I mean, I'm sure Quil doesn't want to date me, and I'm not sexually attracted to him, he's like my brother."
Quil looked content with my answer, but Jake not so much – not that it matter's what he thinks.
"You said the same thing about me." He said
"Yeah, and look how that turned out! I learnt my fucking lesson" I said spitefully. He looked hurt, but I didn't budge, I started walking closer to him. "And how dare you think you have any say over my life anymore Jacob Black, how dare you burst through my front door, yelling and screaming, and criticize me about betraying you! Especially when I was thinking-" I stopped myself short, I couldn't tell him that I was thinking of him while kissing Quil, he would feel too happy, and it would hurt Quil to much.
"You were thinking what Bella?" Jacob asked
I was suddenly very tired.
"Never mind," I sighed "Just...please leave."
"C'mon Bella, I thought I said you should give him a chance." Said Quil.
"You can leave too Quil, I can't deal with this shit right now."
"Wha...Bella!" He was astounded.
"I'm telling Charlie tonight, you can't be here."
He was shocked, but nodded in agreement.
"It's Better he finds out from you, then figure it out on his own."
"Tell Charlie what Bella? What's going on?"
I reluctantly turned to look at him. "It's none of your business Jacob. Why are you even still here?"
Hurt shone in his eyes and he backed towards the door. "Fine, Bella. Be that way." I just rolled my eyes and turned toward Quil once he had left.
"Make sure he isn't within a mile of this place, at least for tonight, I need to tell him in my own time."
He nodded.
Once they had both left I laid myself back on the couch to sleep until Charlie got home. My head needed to stop thinking, but I only hoped I wouldn't dream.

I woke to someone shaking me.
"Bells? Honey, wake up."
"Dad?" I croaked, my voice full of sleep.
"Yeah, come on. I ordered Pizza. It should get here soon."
"How long was I asleep?" I asked him.
"I dunno. I only got home about 20 minutes ago."
I pried my eyes open and found myself on the couch. I stood, and wobbled to the bathroom to splash water on my face, I had to be fully attentive when I told him.
I walked to the kitchen and found Dad in the fridge, searching for a Vitamin R. When he found one he closed the fridge and leaned against it.
"What's up Bells? You seem distant."
I cleared my throat. I felt like quoting Juno to him, 'it would be fricken sweet if no one hit me.'
"Dad, I need to talk to you."
"Go on then."
"First, I need you to know that I love you, and...just, please don't hate me."
"Bells, I could never hate you."
"Okay..." I sighed. "Dad...I'm Pregnant."
Cliff Hanger!
Sorry this is so late, but I figure so many people like it that you won't mind.
Love GG!
