Chapter 20: Bells will be my girl !

Jacob's POV

I left Bells' room after Charlie had woken up and heard me and her talking. I didn't want to leave. I never wanted to leave Bella; I was and still am in love with her.

Bella is my true sunlight and with her in my life, I don't want to get out of bed much less hold up my end of the deal to my family, to my land.

I had to show Bells that I was the better man for her. Edward, what a loser, he can have any women and he chooses mine. That would be a true blood sucking leech which my grandfather had told us about.

"The cold ones," I'll show him cold, or maybe even the heat when I rip him limb from limb and burn the pieces. Maybe, I could have my brothers take care of him. I will draw him over the line and then it will all be on him.

I watched Bells' house and I saw Charlie leave and was going to go back and talk to her. I shifted back into human form and as I turned around, there sat the silver Volvo and that leech was in my house with my girl.

I almost ripped the trees out of the ground. I did pick up a big rock and tossed it at the back window at the monsters car. "Crack!" And the perfect little window had a nice long shiny line that would be a start of a crack.

I laughed to myself and went to knock on Bella's door. The door to my future. Yeah, it will be and so will she. I pledged that right here and right now that Bella Swan will be with mine in the near future.

The door opened before I could knock and there he stood with a wide smile on his cold creepy face.

"I'll wipe that smile off your face, leech, just look at your car," I said, it was too low for Bells to hear.

"No worries, dog, I was going to have Rose replace all those anyway. Beside dog, you will never get your paws on Bella, my Bella," Edward said with a sharp tone to his voice.

"Bells, I need to talk to you," I said looking around Edward. "Please call me after school, it's important."

"Sure Jake, I'll call you after school, but you must understand that what I said last night still stands. Edward and I are together and nothing you say will change that," Bella said as she looked at Edward to make sure that this was alright.

"Alright then, after school today call me and I will come to you or you can come down to La Push and we can take a walk on First Beach, alright?"

"Sure Jake, I'll call you. We gotta go school, you know?"

Edward gave me one last death glare, shut the door for Bella, and drove off.

The school day passed by slowly as I watched the clock and waited for my cell phone to ring. I went out into my garage and started to do some work on my rabbit.

Edward has a nice car and if I'm going to make Bells mine, I too will need a car. I know things like that don't mean anything to her but I still have to be worthy of her love.

Four o'clock and still no call form Bella, I had almost given up till I heard my dad's old truck coming up the old dirt road to my house.

"Here's my chance," I said to myself, "Make that most of it Jacob, you know that leech won't let her see you very much if you can't change her mind and show her how you feel."

I ran to meet her as she drove up. I smiled my big toothy smile that she had told me that she loved so much.

"Hey Jake, what's up?" Bella asked with her angel voice.

"I'm doing well now that you're here Bells." I answered with another big smile. "Would you like to take that walk now, Bells or after dinner? Charlie called and he talked to my dad and the "big game" is on and he's coming here for dinner. He was going to call you but dad told him you and I had plans already and that I would tell you."

"Thanks, Jake."

"I guess we can still take that walk now if it's alright with you, I just need to make a phone call first real quick." Bells said.

I walked away giving her space but I kept an ear open just in case that leech was going to come here.

I was hoping he would so Paul and Sam could take him down. Then an evil grin crossed my face and I pictured Bella in my arms and Edward dead.

"Earth to Jacob, earth to Jacob." Bells called. Then she laughed, grabbed my hand, and pulled me to the path that led to the beach.

I looked down at her and smiled my stupid grin. Bells always made me feel all warm and butterfly-e inside. 'Is that even a word,' I thought to myself.

I intertwined my fingers with hers, pulled her hand up to my lips, and kissed it. It wasn't her lips but I will a bide my time and come out on top.\

We walked on the path all the way to the ocean side and then she sat down on a broken tree trunk. I sat down next to her and she laid her head on my shoulder.

"Bells, this is nice, it could be like this all the time, you know?"

"Jake, I told you, I'm in love with Edward." Bells said.

"I know that's what you said Bells, but is that your head or your heart talking?" I asked her.

"Jacob, can't we just be best friends and nothing more? I have missed you very much. I will not say this again so listen up, please; I'm with Edward now and we will be together foreverrrrrrrrrr."

I stopped her mid-sentence, pressed my lips to hers, and started to kiss her. The way I used to kiss her when she liked me too.

I need to show her that she liked it then and that she felt something for me. She still has to feel something.

'She was kissing me back, she was kissing me back!' I was screaming in my head. Wait, Bella, don't pull away.

"I love you Bells, please?" I watched as she got up and started to run away from where we had been sitting. "Bells, stop, please I needed to show you how much I love you and need to be with you."

I watched as she ran and tripped over the loose stones that were on the ground.

"No, Bella!" I yelled but I was too late.

She already fell and hit her face on the sand with part of her face in the water. I ran over to help Bella up but she pulled away from me.

"Stay back Jacob, I mean it. I told you how I felt, I love you, I always will but I am not in love with you, please, just let it be." Bella said.

I held out my hand and she took it as she stood up. I tried to brush off her face but she wouldn't let me.

"Bells, I'm sorry, please forgive me?" I gave her my big grin and she smiled a little at me. "Am I forgiven?"

"I guess, unless you try something like that again." Bella said as she smiled a sly smile.

"We should go back, Charlie should be here by now and dinner should be done." She smiled again and we walked back to my house. Bells even let me hold her hand as long as that was it and that I knew we were "just friends."

I'll let it be for now but I will not give up, someday Edward will mess up and Bells will grow close to me again. She might even fall in love with me again.

"What are you smiling about, Jake?" Bells asked.

"Just us, Bells, and how we are always going to be the best of friends and how I will always be here if you need me." I bent down, kissed her forehead, and we walked in to eat with our fathers.

The time will come, Bells will lean on me and I will win, yes I will win.
