Everything Goes: Chapter 15
Bella rolled over on her side enjoying the warmth of Jake's body spooning next to her. His arms held her tightly next to him. She felt snug as a bug. Enjoying the feelings of being loved and the warmth of his arms she hated the thought of having to get up and go to work.
After their first time to make love they had both been so content they had fallen asleep in each others arms. A few hours later Jake woke her up stroking her core while kissing the side of her neck. It did not take her long to get rev up for another round. A hour later they had finished round two and had gone back to sleep. Bella had to admit she was bit sore after round two. Jake had put her in quite a position and proved he had plenty of stamina.
She wondered how exactly they would reveal the change in their status with their friends and families. She wasn't scared of their reactions exactly. She knew they would be happy for them. She just wondered how long it would take them to start the teasing and the pressure of marriage. She knew her father would not be keen on them living together while Jake's father wouldn't like it much but he wouldn't exactly put pressure on them. After all Billy was a bit more laid back since Jake was a boy while Charlie would not be so relaxed about it with her being his little girl. She knew Charlie would be tickled at the thought of her with Jake. He had never hid his feelings about Jake. He cared very much for Jake.
She giggled softly thinking about how Angela would react to the news. It was funny how her friends already expected her to fall in love with Jake. She had never even considered it much before this past year. She was just happy with the way things were. She never dreamed or desired for more. Now she could never imagine them ever going back to being just friends.
Hell, she never wanted to see Jake with anyone but her for the rest of her life. She understood now why the girls of his past were so upset about the loss of Jake in their life. He was more than perfect in her eyes. He was was like her own personal oxygen tank and hell who didn't need oxygen to survive. She wanted to spend every moment of her life with him. She knew that with him by her side she could endure anything that came her way.
With that last thought she was slapped back into a wave of guilt slam into her heart. Here she was happy as all get out while Alice sat in a cold sterile room praying that she would remain safe from her attacker. It sadden her to realize she couldn't share her happiness with her other best friend.
If she was honest she was a tab scared of what she might learn if she talked to Alice again. What would happen once she learned who the real attacker was? It was obvious it was someone she knew. Knew well enough to trust. How horrible it would be to learn that someone you called a friend could be so cruel and horrible? It also scared her to think what Alice's dad might do to the guy as well. It was pretty clear he was going to expect the guy to be locked up for life. Then there was her own father. If he got a hold of him would he be able to remember he was the law first before her father?
Still, if she did not learn who it was soon then she could suffer far more than being deeply disappointed in that mystery person and their horrifying behavior. Yeah, she could be joining Alice in that padded room. Shivering she felt Jake pull her closer to him.
"Jake darling I got to get up." Bella tried to pull his arms away from her so she could slip out of the bed to take a quick shower before she went into work.
"Nope." Jake nuzzled into her neck.
Bella chuckled the way he held on tighter the more she pulled at his arms.
"Seriously honey I gotta go pee and get in the shower." Bella giggled as she finally manage to get one of his arms off of her as she struggle to sit up in bed.
"You're no fun in the morning." Jake muffled as he kept his eyes closed.
"No, I just want to smell clean before I go to work." Bella yawned loudly as she stretch her arms above her head.
"Whatever. No fun." Jake mumbled as he pulled her pillow into his arms snuggling next to it.
"You need to get up too. Go make us coffee." Bella ordered sweetly as she leaned over placing a tender kiss on the tip of his ear. She grinned when she saw his lips curl into a smile. He was awake but just like her he didn't want to get out of bed just yet.
Bella grabbed his robe off the back of his door as she stepped out into the hallway. She was still a bit scared as she raced to the bathroom. She knew it was silly but the house was pretty dark even at six o'clock in the morning. She quickly had her morning pee before starting her shower. Grabbing her toothpaste and brush she brushed her teeth hoping the shower was warm enough to take a shower. Letting the robe fall to the floor she stepped in and was pleased to feel the hot water splashing against her chilly body.
Lathering up soap on the rag she began to wash her face first and was slowly making her way down her body when she felt a whoosh of cool air. Turning swiftly to see what could have caused the sudden cold air in her hot shower she was torn between shock and pleasure as she stared at Jake completely nude and smiling with a smug look as he took the soapy rag from her shaking hands. He cocked an eyebrow as she smiled at him before turning back around so he could wash her backside.
It should have felt awkward sharing a shower with him but it didn't. It wasn't like he hadn't seen all her after last night. Smiling she allowed him to lather her up and ease the ache between her legs one more time before heading into work.
Bella stood at the counter at the diner where Leah had called in a lunch order for them. She was lost in her thoughts about her morning shower with Jake and how remarkable the boy, no man, was with sexual positions. She had a small amount of experience with sex but Jake was teaching her that there was far more to sex than she could have ever imagined.
"Excuse me." A rough voice spoke next to her as she felt a sharp poke in her rib. Frowning she turned to give the rude person a severe scolding look when she gasp for air.
It was Ben. What was Ben doing in Port Angeles? She knew that Angela said he worked in Seattle. So why was he here on a weekday? Did his job also bring him here? She could not explain it but looking at his rough features she sensed he was not happy and not sure if he even realized it was her he had shoved while trying to get up to the counter to order his lunch.
"Ben?" Bella spoke sternly as she glared at him.
"Bella?" Ben turned glaring at her with such a venomous look that let her know that he was quite aware of her presence and did not give a damn that he had just shoved her.
"What are you doing here?" Bella asked with a softer tone.
She looked at him and noticed he look like hell. His tie was crooked and his shirt look like he had slept in it. She wondered if Angela had suddenly grown balls and dropped his cheating ass?
"Well, seeing on how it's a diner I think I am ordering food." Ben replied rudely as he picked up the menu sat on the emerald green countertop.
Bella noted that he also had dark circles under his eyes. He looked horrible. Nothing like the smiley and outgoing Ben she remembered in High School. He was such a sweet guy. What had happened to him? When did he become such a prick? Not to mention a cheating loser.
"Here you go." The waitress with a tag that informed the world her name was Tina brought the large bag filled with food to feed an army when in truth it was only feeding about five people.
"Thank you." Bella smiled at her before staring at Ben with an angry glare.
"Funny Ben. So what crawled up your ass?" Bella decided if he was going to act like a dick she could return the favor.
"Nothing Bella. Besides, why would you give a damn? You never cared about me before now." He gave her a challenging look as he turn toward the same waitress and ordered his food.
Bella was about to argue with him some more when she realized she had food to get back to several hungry people and he didn't look like he was in the mood to give a damn about her feelings. She couldn't imagine why he was pissed at her personally. Maybe he was just mad at the world and she just happened to be there the moment he grew fed up with it all. She told herself to calm down. Not to take his sour attitude so personally.
"Just so you know I did care about the "old" Ben. This one is not much worth caring about." Bella commented with an acidic tone before stomping off.
She wanted to leave while she had the last word. She wondered what happened to him. He looked like a man who no longer had any pride in himself. He came off bitter and frustrated. She was going to have to call Angela later in the evening and get an update on their relationship. Did Angela know he was here instead of Seattle?
She knew she was probably being paranoid but it suddenly occurred to her that Ben was a person that she and Alice had both trusted. Could he be a possible suspect?
She felt horrible as she drove up in the parking lot. How could she think such a thing of Ben? Sure he was a jerk now days but he had never done anything in the past to show that he hated her or Alice in such away that he would cause them physical harm.
Whatever was going on was no doubt from something that had occurred between him and Angela. Knowing that Bella was a close friend of Angela's he no doubt felt like she was his enemy now. She chuckled rudely as she walked into the building. It was so like High School. When a couple broke up the friends they shared had to be split up as well. Someone always had to choose a side. She felt slightly bad for Ben. She knew it was foolish of her. After all there was no doubt in her mind that if Ben was truly staying in Seattle all those weekends that he had skipped out on Angela that he was up to no good. What he had been doing was still a mystery to her.
Jake couldn't keep the smile off of his face all day. He tried to get Bella out of his mind but it was fruitless. No matter what he did he couldn't seem to get her naked image out of his head. All he could hear was her sexy moans when he shoved his big cock into her. She had this sound that made his blood boil. She also had a incredible way of shouting his name just as she orgasm.
"Boys, I believe our boy Jake here got him some good stuff last night." Collin commented with a envious grin on his face as he walked around the fifth vehicle that Jake had fixed with in a few hours. He was amazed at how fast Jake was working today. He wasn't stupid. The boy was working on a high.
Since he knew that Jake was not on any drugs the only other answer to his good mood today was sex. Not just any sort of sex but the really hot smoking, ego bursting kind of sex. Collin wondered who the lucky girl was? He also wondered if Jake had fallen in love with the girl. The boy was humming all day and no matter what they said he just kept working and smiling.
It was starting to bother Collin. It was just unnatural for Jake or hell any guy to smile that much.
"I'm saying. Damn the fool is working like a mad man. You need to stop it your making us look slow." Embry pouted as he sat down opening a can of soda while he took a short break.
"You are slow." Quil grunted under the car next to the one that Jake was working on.
"Shut up Quil. We aren't talking about you. We all know you didn't get some the other day." Embry laughed hysterically.
Quil pushed himself out from under the jacked up car flipping Embry off.
He was still pissed at how the guys had purposely walked in on him and Misty. He had told the guys that he was bringing Misty over for a little of private time. Her room mate was home and she was having some friends over. He wanted to do a little more than kissing with his new girlfriend. He also told the guys that he was going to put a tie on the door knob and if they saw it that meant he was still in the small apartment that they all shared with his girl.
He had only been with Misty for a hour when the guys came bursting in the door. They had a bunk bed and a futon to sleep on in the living area. So there was no real sense of privacy in the apartment except the bathroom.
Quil had just managed to get Misty's clothes off and was about to do the deed on the futon when they interrupted. Misty had been so embarrassed. Luckily Quil had covered her up from the guy's lustful eyes. They pretended they were unaware of his date with her and left the room. Quil had hoped to persuade Misty into staying a while longer that the guys would stay away now but she lost the mood. He had been so damn hard after she left. He suffered with blue balls that night.
"So who is she?" Embry asked as he stared down at Jake who was still humming a song while replacing a pair of brakes.
"She is none of your business." Quil barked. He wasn't sure why but he felt a need to protect Jake's private life from the rest of the guys. He figured he was doomed to not have any privacy while he lived with the jerks but Jake did not have to suffer the same fate.
"It's okay." Jake replied happily as he slipped out from underneath the car.
Pulling a oil rag out of his back pocket he wiped his hands clean before he looked up at his friends who were anxiously waiting to hear all the dirty details.
"Well?" Collin snorted.
"Well, first of all it's not like what you think. It was not some random new girl I met. Nope, this my friends is the real genuine thing. I'm officially in love and yes I did have sex. You will not however get any details." Jake stated as he stared back and forth between the three faces in front of him.
It was hilarious watching their expressions shifting from smug, to disappointed to truly disbelief.
"What the hell?" Collin shouted.
"Seriously Jake, you, in love?" Embry hackled.
"Damn, she must have been one hell of a lady to win your heart." Quil cried out in shock.
"That sounded so gay." Embry frowned at Quil before turning back to Jake.
"I think what he meant to say is she must have been one damn mighty fine looking woman with some serious moves to make you THINK your in love." Embry replied while rolling his eyes in disgust toward Quil.
Quil flipped him off again.
"Well who is it?" Collin exclaimed as he shoved Embry off the chair so he could sit in it.
"Damn Collin." Embry snapped as he leaned up against the wall.
"I'm not sure if I should tell you guys. You see she is very special to me. You guys will be jerks about it." Jake sighed heavily as he scratch the back of his head. He still wasn't sure if he wanted to share his good news with the guys just yet. They were apparently too immature to believe that it was possible to fall in love with a girl for more than one night.
"No we won't." Collin and Embry shouted at the same time.
Quil snorted with a disgusted frown on his face.
"Jake it's okay. I don't blame you if you don't want to tell Curly and Moe here." Quil replied.
"Hahah. You're the third stooge just remember that." Embry pointed out as he smiled sarcastically at Quil.
"Jake what is the big deal? Do we know her already?" Collin ask as sat looking quite serious.
"Yes." Jake sighed as he look between the three guys. He hoped they would just guess it so he didn't have to say it. He wasn't sure why but he feared they would be seriously upset about the change in his relationship with Bella. They were all close to her. Not to mention they had all tried to hit on her one time or another and she always shot them down.
"Do you live with her?" Embry's eyes grew as wide as saucers as it dawn on him who Jake was talking about. He only knew one girl that they all knew that Jake had been close to.
"Yes." Jake whispered.
"HOLY SHIT!" Collin roared loudly.
"Who?" Quil looked at Embry and Collin for some help.
"Damn Quil think about it. Who does Jake live with." Embry leaned over and smacked Quil across his forehead.
"Bella. Oh. OHHHHH!" Quil realized who they were talking about.
Collin started laughing while Embry looked upset and Quil well he was still puzzled.
"So you see now why I didn't want to share my happiness with you guys." Jake sighed heavily as he leaned back and was about to push himself back under the car. He was not sure if he was happy or disappointed in the guys for not acting like they were remotely happy for him.
"That is incredible." Quil spoke up as he looked at the other two with a serious face.
"It is?" Embry frowned harder.
"Yeah, Bella is Jake's best friend, well girl best friend, so it makes sense that he would fall in love with her eventually." Quil shrugged his shoulders.
"He got to have sex with her." Collin smiled smugly. It was apparent to everyone he was having dirty thoughts as he spoke.
"Shut up." Embry growled at Collin.
"What? I mean seriously we all have wondered what it would be like." Collin was only stating what he knew was true. All of them had lusted after Bella at one point or another.
"Seriously Collin." Quil warned him.
"Look Collin you never had a shot with her. Bella is a lady. Not a two bit whore. She has taste. Something you don't have." Jake was up in Collin's face within seconds. Quil was holding him back.
"Hey I'm not trying to be ugly about this. I'm just saying your one lucky ass guy. So I guess it was as good as we ALL had imagined." Collin replied with a sneer.
"Don't imagine it in front of me." Jake gave him a warning look before stepping back.
"Fine. Damn." Collin rolled his eyes as he walked away.
"Your in love with her." Embry stated rather than asked.
"Yes. I think I have been for some time now but ignored it. We have been friends for so long that I just got comfortable labeling my feelings for her under friendship category." Jake answered.
"So now what?" Embry asked curiously.
"What do you mean?" Jake was confused by the way Embry was acting as if he just informed them the world was about to end.
"I'm just saying you two are grown adults who live together and are now lovers so what comes next. Do you plan on asking her to marry you?" Embry replied with a pale face.
"Uh no! Not now. We just realized our feelings for one another changed. I'm not in any rush to get married." Jake cried out.
"It will happen. You guys can only move forward from this point. The next level will be marriage." Embry commented as he shook his head in disbelief.
"What? Damn Embry stop acting like I just confessed to murdering someone instead of confessing that I am officially in love with Bella." Jake was growing uncomfortable with the direction that Embry was taking this conversation. He would rather sit and listen to Collin discuss how he imagine sleeping with Bella than this serious shit.
"I'm just saying if you guys don't get married then you will break up and then not only will you loose your girlfriend but your best friend. Are you sure you are ready for that?" Embry questioned.
Quil was dumbfounded by the direction that Embry's thoughts were taking him. He wondered why Embry even gave a damn about Bella and Jake's future? It wasn't like Embry to talk about something so serious.
"Are you feeling okay?" Quil asked before Jake could reply.
"Yeah." Embry crushed his soda can and walked away silently.
"What the hell is wrong with him?" Jake asked Quil.
"I don't know."
"I thought he would react much like Collin had."
"Me too."
"Then why did he act like I just told him I killed his dog or something?"
"I'm as clueless as you are." Quil stated with a heavy sigh.
"This is weird." Jake chuckled softly.
"Yep." Quil agreed as he patted Jake on the back.
"Oh and congratulations Jake. I always knew you two might hook up someday." Quil smiled proudly at his friend.
"Thanks." Jake was relieved that at least one of his friends was acting happy and normal for a change.
