Chapter Two : Never Gonna be Alone (Inspired by "Never Gonna Be Alone" by Nickelback

"Time, is going by, so much faster than I,
And I'm starting to regret not spending all of it with you"

Jacob's P.O.V

Im not sure how I ended up in Charlies police car. But this wasn't the way I had always imagined it happening. Though I admit it sure felt nice. I liked the feeling and I thought maybe I should become a cop so I can protect people or something.

I looked at Bella's dad and saw that he kept looking over at me as if expecting me to do or say something. I wasn't sure of anything myself so I just remained silent at least up until we crossed one of the three street lights in Forks.

I was more scared then fascinated 'cause I knew I was in a load of trouble. I didn't skip school today, because it was a native American holiday, but I did break someones nose. Hmm I think Quil and Embry will love to hear about that.

Charlie was definitely going to tell my Pops, Billy. I just hope that the punishment wasn't so bad. In the end I don't mind so much. I got to help Bella today, once again. That big Mike Newton wanted to hurt her, but i set him straight, I thought, smiling.

I realised that I loved protecting Bella. I loved that she let me protect her. This simply made my smile just grow bigger.

Charlie looked down at me over and over again with the same unsure expression.

"You know your on trouble kid, right?" he asked. The grin fell of my face and I froze.

"Yupp." I said popping the "P". He just looked at me and nodded with that unsure expression.

"How in the world does Billy let you go out by yourself Jacob...I mean I know its safe around here, believe me, I would know, but your what 7 ??? I'm not so sure if you should even be crossing the street by yourself". I wanted to laugh but that would probably be disrespectful. I managed to hold it in. If only Charlie knew how often I traveled to his house at night.

"I'm about to be 8, Charlie. And well Mom and Dad always say I dont act my age half the time, so......" I let my sentence trail off and turned to look straight out the wind shield, keeping my eyes glued to the red and white ambulance we were following.

I sighed.

Somewhere inside it, Bella, was getting treated. I could only imagine how much she probably wanted me there. I myself wasn't so fond of leaving her alone either.

Charlie grunted but a small smile played on his lips. He kept his eyes on the lonely road. I then noticed there were no cars going in the opposite direction. Just another day in the small town of Forks.

"I guess your like my Bella, huh? No wonder she loves you. You and Bella can be such old women sometimes." he said. We both laughed together at the last part. Maybe he was right. But looking at the dashboard I saw it that it was five past One...and oh man i missed Power Rangers again!

-----

"Jacob" she whispered.

"From this moment on"

"I want Jacob to come with me, mom." I heard Bella say, this time loud enough so all the doctors could hear too. From outside the room, I didnt hear any doctors deny her anything so I figured it was okay. I heard the bed squeak and I looked inside the room just in time to see Renee bent down over her daughters hospital bed. She put her hand on Bella's small shoulder and gave her a wary look.

"Are you sure, honey? Jacob is just a boy. Do you think he'll want to sit with you through that?" She asked her.

Bella took a moment to think about it...maybe she was imagining me becoming grossed out. Of course, I couldn't let her think that so soon enough I walked into to room letting myself known.

"I'd love to go, Bella!" I said, walking fast towards her, anxious to get near her by the bed. Her whole face lit up at the idea of me being with her, and even though she wasn't showing it, I had a feeling she was scared. I made my way past her mom and sat next to her on the bed.

There was a knock on the door and Renee moved off the bed to speak to Charlie. I realised he didn't look so happy and once Renee stepped out side the room we could hear their loud whispers lashing out at each other.

"Where is Bella's paper work, Charlie?! They've been asking for it and I told you to bring it" she whispered.

We both froze and strained to listen to what they were saying.

"Me?! I told you I couldn't do it. I just came here straight from the station. Do you not listen to ANYTHING I say?" Charlie responded.

"Oh please Charlie! Your the one who never listens. If you did maybe Bella wouldn't be here!" She whispered back, but their bickering was loud enough for us to hear.

Bella's breathing slowly began to hitch.

"My fault? Are you fucking insane? What the hell does this have to do with me listening?"

"I told you we should have sent her to a private school! But noooooo, you just wanted her to go to school with everyone else" Renee said back.

"Renee listen to yourself. What kind of excuse is this, for you to try and fight with me? You just love to argue don't you? You just always think its my fault."Charlie said, their whispers loud, taunting and fading as they walked off.

The room seemed to darken.

We were pretty much alone now, except for the nurses going in and out of the pale room. She didn't say anything so I just took the time to hold her hand, which I could see had been playing with the hem of her gown.

"if you ever feel like letting go"

"Its my fault Jake" She said, her voice small and sad. "Its my fault that all of this happened and now mommy and daddy are fighting" Her eyes looked into mine and I could see that any moment now the tears were going to fall.

"It is not your fault Bella. I promise you, nothing is ever your fault. Your beautiful Bella! Nothing that you do is ever wrong" I told her. She looked unsure for a second but slowly the smile snuck on to her lips.

My hand was a lot bigger then hers, and it got lost once I enveloped it. At the small gesture she looked up at me. Her eyes were distant but soft and then she smiled at me. My heart seemed to fly a little bit and I looked up to where her hair would normally be cascading. Instead I saw a big white bandage wrapped around her head holding her hair in place.

I couldn't help but realize that Bella looked breakable.

Which reminded me of something Sam once told me not too long ago when he and Leah got in a fight after their junior high spring dance.

"Girls are all the same." He said, huffing and puffing as he stomped into my house. "And don't you ever forget it" he said as he slammed the door.

I had no idea what he was talking about.

But Bella sure didn't look like any of the girls I knew. She instead looked like one of those white porcelain dolls that my mom and my twin sisters, Rachael and Rebbecca, collect.

Bella even reassembled the dolls with her vivid bright pink cheeks. She was so pretty and she definitely did didn't look anything like my sisters.

She had light brown hair, while Rachael and Rebbecca had jet black hair. Bellas eyes were like chocolate shakes, while you couldnt even tell where my sisters pupils started.

I looked down at Bella's lips, which she was currently biting on. They werent so full like my sisters, but I had never seen such a dark natural shade of red on a girl that wasn't lip stick.

Ick. both my sisters spent hours in the morning putting that on. I hope Bella never put that stuff on.

I continued to hold hands with Bella in silence, while she stared out a window, until a nurse came in to talk to Bella. Her hair was tied up and she had a nice bright smile on her face.

"So Isabella, have you ever gotten stitches before?" she asked in a high pitch voice as if we were 3 years old. Bella looked away from the window and just shook her head and smiled though it looked kind of forced.

The nurse sat down, jotted somethings down and explained things to her. Bella just nodded and shook her head in all the necessary places.

Finally The nurse reassured her that it was going to be okay and that the doctors were ganna move her soon. She gathered her stuff and prepared to leave.

The nurse was almost out the door, clip board in hand, when finally she spoke up for the first time.

"Is it okay if Jacob comes with me?" she asked the nurse softly. Her voice trembled a bit. I secretly crossed my fingers.

The lady looked at me and gave us a big smile and nodded. "Yes, I dont think Doctor Cullen would mind if your friend goes with you."

and with that, I smiled at the nurse one last time, murmured a thank you and then she left. We didn't see her again.

Bella and I were alone once again and I looked at her carefully. She was back to staring out the window where the occasional bird would fly by. Her forehead was creased and her eyes were lost.

"I won't let you fall..."

"Don't be afraid sweetie. I'm here" I told her, giving her hand a small squeeze in emphasis.

Her eyes slightly fluttered as she looked away from the window and into my eyes closely. Her brown eyes looked wide and big on her pale little face.

"How come you always know how I feel, Jake?" she asked. I just shrugged and opened my mouth to mutter an answer when a tall, really pale, handsome man walked through the door. He was captivating but his eyes were the ones that caught me off guard. They were a dark vivid gold.

Something about him was...off.

I think Bella and I were staring. Dad once told me that it was rude to stare. But I couldn't help it.

He just looked like one of those secretly hidden bad guys that the Ninja Turtles always cought. I tightened my grip on Bella's hand and she returned the gesture just as much. I looked away from the Doctor and noticed Bella looking at me.

I nodded at her and smiled at her raised eye brow.

We were thinking the same thing.

What a wierdo....

"It's okay" I whispered, knowing only she could hear me. I searched her face for any signs of comfort. But all I could see was sadness and silent lost screams.

"Never gonna be alone!"

Well hello you guys" He said, looking around for adults but not finding any, he settled on us. "

"You ready Ms. Swan?" he asked Bella, coming over to her bed. I squeezed Bella's hand once more and then released it as I got up to give Doctor Cullen space.

He unlocked the wheels on Bella's hospital bed and pushed it out the door.

"We're going to do this down the hall, is that okay Ms. Swan?"

We both looked at her, awaiting her response and once again, she just nodded. Dr. Cullen then looked at me and with a huge white grin he told me to follow him.

Like a a baby duckling I followed the Doctor pushing Bella into an almost vacant room. It was really dim and empty. He put her bed against a wall and started to put a pair of latex gloves on his flawless white hands.

I took the time to go sit on the edge of Bella's bed and kept my eyes on her face. She looked around and slightly shuddered.

Being in there made my skin crawl too.

"Promise you wont leave?" she asked, clinging on to the sleeve of my shirt tightly."

I grabbed her hand, raised it to my lips and pecked her wrist. The smooth skin felt good. I then brought it to my lap and rubbed circles on her palm.

"Of course not, Bella. As long as your Here By Me....you'll never ever be alone."

"I'll hold you 'til the hurt is gone"

I said smiling to her

Soon enough Bella's bandage was being unwrapped and he was feeding her some kind of numbing drug.

"Are you scared, Ms. Swan" Doctor Cullen asked her, kindly.

She shook her head.

But I knew better and I took her hand in mine once more. Her eyes met mine and she refused to look away.

The weird Doctor was now bringing the needle to the bottom side of Bella's head. Soon enough the needle was going in and out of a small portion of Bella's flesh. I flinched repeatedly every time he brought the needle in and back out. But Bella didn't move one bit. She locked her eyes on mine and held my hand as if her life depended on it.

"We're okay, Bella." I said cupping her cheek. She just kept looking at me not being able to nod.

I knew for a fact that she was not in pain, but the tears still came out of her eyes. My small heart was breaking knowing she was in another type of pain.

Her parents were'nt even with her when she needed them. And I knew even though she wanted me here to, she also wanted Renee or Charlie.

"You know I like you more then Mike Newton, right?" she whispered after a moment. I began to think about this and finally I responded

"Yeah, I know. In the end. You love me more." I said, feeling as if I knew Exactly what I was talking about.

"And now, for as long as I can, I'm holding on with both hands"

---------

After about a 15 minutes it was all over. The doctor was gone and I was sitting in the waiting room by myself.

My dad then walked in through the door

"Jacob Ephraim Black!" he shouted making me and the reception lady jump, seeing as we were the only ones left in the waiting room. Charlie was finishing signing some of Bella's paper work.

I groaned.

"I told you to stay home, Jake. Not wonder off in to Forks!" He said, taking a seat next to me. "Just because school on the Rez is closed, does not mean you can do as you please.

I nodded but remained silent. So he too the oppertunity to keep talking. But softer this time

"How is she?"

"Good" I replied, feeling a bit scared and guilty for scaring my father.

"I heard you helped her out today, with the kid who pushed her. Did you really?" he asked.

"Yup. And Im glad I did" I said with pride in my voice.

Instead of scowling like i expected, he smiled.

"Good. I know your mother and I are doing a good job at raising you."

We went home that afternoon. Everything went by normally from there. We had dinner and Dad didn't even once mention anything to Mom about the incident. Things seemed to fall back in order. And I looked at the clock and began counting down the minutes until I could see Bella again.

-----

That night, I grabbed my bike at exactly 11:36 and made my way down the side of the familiar highway.

The sky looked darker. The air felt a little colder this time. It whipped against my long hair as I rode and I began to wonder what Bella was doing.

I began to wonder if she was already waiting for me. I sure hoped so....

But, the closer I got, the more the wind blew. The more I traveled, the heavier I felt.

It felt as if it was rushing me to find her. I peddled harder, letting the wind penetrate my clothes and reach mys skin. My breathing was hard and tired but I kept pedaling until I was finally outside her sleeping house.

Something didn't feel right.

I practically ran up the copper stairs that aligned the side of the house, feeling extra anxious tonight. There was sweat on my back and my hair felt like it was all over the place, but finally at the top of the stairs I found her.

She was waiting for me.

But not like I expected. She was standing by the railing tonight and her back was towards me. I knew for a fact that she had always been afraid of standing to close to it. I instantly knew something was wrong.

What was she doing...?

Bella didn't move from there but I knew she had to have heard me. She always does.

"Jacob" she whispered.

"'Cause forever I believe that there's nothing I could need but you"

Her call was soft and sad, and she didn't turn around. But I knew that she knew that I was there.

My feet practically rushed to go to her side. I made sure not to get tangeled on my own feet.

"Bella, whats wrong?" I asked from behind her.

I was at a lost but I noticed her frame began to shiver. Her sobs came out quickly and quiet at first. And suddenly she fell to her knees, holding on to the railings.

I had never seen her this way. I didnt know what to say. I just wanted to hear her tell me everything.

"Jacob.....I'm leaving." She said. Her voice as delicate as her body. The night gown she had on was blowing in the cold wind and her body shivered though I couldn't tell if it was from the cold or not.

I trembeled at her words. What was she talking about? My started to feel to break into a cold sweat.

"Leav-ing?" I asked. My voice broke. And I felt a pang in my chest that I had never ever felt before in my short life.

"Yes, Ja-cob. And where I'm going.....you wont be able to ride your bike to. It'll be-be to far away."

My mind froze. The wind blew hard enough so that we could hear its howl.

Bella began to cry harder and she let Moby fall from her fingers on to the floor.

"....Away??"

"Time, is going by, so much faster than I,
And I'm starting to regret not telling all of this to you.
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know...
Never gonna be alone!
From this moment on, if you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall.
When all hope is gone, I know that you can carry on.
We're gonna see the world out,
I'll hold you 'til the hurt is gone."
