REWRITTEN.

Life sucks, then you die.

That's pretty much all Jacob thought about just after Bella, the love of his life, had left him, to go back to Edward. If it weren't for his "brothers" in the pack Jake would've left. He would've ran until he couldn't run anymore and he wouldn't ever come back. He had even thought about leaving and staying phased. He would live the rest of his life as a wolf until he died. He felt as if he had nothing to live for anymore.

Bella truly was the love of his life. She was his imprint. But Jake, being the sweet caring guy that he was, never told her. He didn't want to force Bella to be with him just because of some wolf thing. He didn't think it was right. If he had the choice not to imprint, he would take it in a heartbeat. Falling in love with a complete stranger and bringing them into a world of werewolves and vampires? Not very romantic. What girl would want that?

The minute that Jake got home, he ran upstairs to his room without a single word to a very concerned Billy. It was almost as if Billy knew without a single word being spoken. Jake was very grateful for that. He didn't want to relive the night's events because he wasn't to sure he'd be able to handle it. The moment that the car drove away, he ran into the forest and phased.

Jake didn't want to talk about it with Billy because there was a little tug in the back of his mind that he could end up losing it and end up making a huge mistake. He couldn't risk it.

Once up in the comfort of his own room Jake laid down on his bed and started rethinking everything that happened earlier that night. But it was too much. He couldn't fight the burning that was running through his spine. The heat that spread through him like wildfire. Before he knew it he was jumping out the window, phasing in mid-air.

"Great. Another pair of shorts ruined." He rolled his eyes. He truly thought he was getting better at the whole changing-before-you-phase thing but apparently he was wrong.

"Jake, it's fine. Don't tear yourself down over it. It's just a pair of shorts." It was Sam. Jake didn't want to offend him but he had no idea what he was talking about. But before Jake could take back what he had thought Sam was speaking again.

"Jake, I just read through your thoughts." That earned a low, warning growl from Jacob. "But, she's your imprint, right?" Jake nodded his head yes and waited for Sam to continue. "Something will happen Jake and she will come to you. Give it time for her heart to become fully yours. It will happen."

The conviction in Sam's voice as he ended his little speech gave Jake that little sliver of hope that Bella would finally be his. Even though imprinting assured that the imprintee would always be the wolves' one true love, Jake couldn't help but doubt it. So much had happened with Bella. He just wasn't sure.

"Like I said Jake, give it time. She will be yours." And with those final words, wherever he was, Sam phased and Jake was left with him and his thoughts.

Jacob sat outside for a little while longer, just enjoying the quiet, fresh air. Hearing a creek he immediately jerked up, alert ready to fight whatever was around him but he looked up only to see Billy in the window, dropping something on the ground. He figured he might was well go back inside and let Billy know that he'd be okay. So he walked over to the window, smiling when he saw that Billy had dropped a pair of shorts outside the window, slipped them on and walked inside. He hugged his father goodnight and went up to his room, hoping to get a good nights sleep.

As if that was even possible.


Hi there! (:

I'm going to re-write all of the chapters in a 3rd person's point of view. I don't like the change of point of views for this story. So stay tuned for the chapters that will be rewritten. They will be almost the exact same, just not in Jake/Bella's point of views.

Chapter 2-6 will be up soon!
