Need to talk

Bellas POV:

What´s up with my boyfriend and my best friend? Both of them are not themselves and that at least since two weeks.

On one side, there is my perfect, beloved vampire. Edward tries hard to act like he is already normal, but to tell the truth, he isn´t such a good actor this time. There are moments when he seems to be miles away, dreaming about something I did not know. The only thing I´m sure about is, he isn´t thinking of me in this times. I could feel that something is completely wrong.

I wondered what had happened, but I can´t find out. He is as gentle as ever, spend his time with me – everything as usual, but he doesn´t touch or kiss me the way he had done any longer. Sure, I could kiss him but mostly he doesn´t reply the kiss, it is weird. One day he keeps distance and the other day he pulled me tight. I can´t figure it out but it is very strange.

On the other hand, there is my best friend, my wolf, my personal sun, my Jacob. His behavior changed into freaky month ago and I have still not found the clue what happened.

First I visited him twice a week down in La Push, like I have always done, but since he doesn´t come to my house anymore I started to meet him three or four times a week in the reservation. We hang out in the garage or drive with our motor cycles but he is no longer the shining sun. We switched our parts – now it´s me trying to make him smile again – but to be honest, not often successful. Men are so hard to understand, never say anything about feelings and then wonder why they are misunderstood Maybe he is still annoyed that I´m with Edward, but this couldn´t be the only reason for his change. One day I will find out and I´ll help him getting through this, I promised to myself.

Another cloudy morning in wonderful Forks, I´m glad that it´s Saturday, which means no school today. I´ve planned to go to La Push to have a late breakfast with Jake. Maybe, for him it will be his second meal, but I think that will be okay, actually Jacob is always hungry.

Edward glanced at me "Bella" he asked "You´re going to the reservation, aren´t you?" Oh no, not again I thought

"That´s the plan! So don´t try to stop …" he interrupted me

"I don´t want to stop you. I just wanted to ask you, to do me a favor"

I raised an eyebrow "Sure, so what is it?" Good, no argue today

"Could you ask your dogfriend Jacob if we can meet? I have to talk to him"

"What´s the matter?" I asked curiously

"Oh, just a vampire-werewolf-thing" he answered quickly and put a little kiss on my forehead.

"Fine. Where and when will you meet him?"

"His choice" he announced. This time he held me close, kissing me again, his fingers playing with my hair. As said, just weird

I arrived at Jakes early and expected to find him still asleep, but to my surprise he was already u. He looked like he hadn´t slept at all, more as if he had cried all night long. "Jake, what´s up?" I asked. I wrapped my arm around him for a friendly, comforting hug.

Jacobs POV:

His scent It´s driving me crazy. I pulled Bella nearer, closed my eyes and imagined it is him I´m holding. "Everything is just fine" I mumbled and smiled at her "Let´s have breakfast, I have not eaten yet"

It was arousing to have his scent lingering all around our little kitchen. While making sandwiches Bella told me about her conversation with Edward and asked me to meet him. My thoughts were running. He sent her to get me back. He´ll kill me. His perfume all around, he did it on purpose "Tell him no" I shouted Yes, Yes Yes

She looked at me a bit puzzled "C´mon Jack, he only wants to talk!" If you only knew

"Still no" I yelled I want him

The rest of the day I was arguing with myself whether to meet him or not. So Bella hadn´t a very interesting Saturday with me and she decided to leave early. I hugged her goodbye. But to be honest I wanted to get intoxicated by his scent once more. I took a deep breath and my resistance was broken "Tell your leech, I agree. I´ll meet him at the borderline at 11 p.m."

She smiled her sweetest smile for me, get in her truck and drove home to tell him my words. I´m going to be killed – thanks Bella

Edwards POV:

I watched her coming back; she smiled when she found me sitting on her doorstep I grinned back, but only to lease her. She stepped out of her car and we met halfway to the house. His scent I hugged her and kissed her forehead, I felt him so near. I ended the hug because I needed to know what he had answered. "What did he say?" Deep in my heart I was sure he said – no way, but I still hoped

"Let me just go inside at first" she noted "I really need a shower before talking. It was damned hot in the garage and I am pretty sweaty" I started to panic; I wanted to enjoy his marvelous scent around me only a little bit longer. I caught her hand and pulled her to me again "Please Bella, has he agreed?" I almost pleaded her to tell me that he said yes.

She nodded "First he freaked out and shouted at me, but finally he´d agree to meet you at the borderline at 11 p.m." I could have been dancing around for joy, but in front of Bella? No way to show my mood. I kissed her again and whispered "Thank you Bella" she deepened the kiss but I broke it "You smell like a wet dog" I joked. That´s not lie She flinched and ran rapidly into her bathroom to wash away this delicious odor.
