Jacob dropped off Bella and we continued towards my house. As we continued driving Jacob asked me, "Can I ask you another question?" I replied, "Sure, I don't mind." He smiled and asked, "How are good at everything and only fourteen?" I smiled and answered, "Well… not everything but thanks for the complement."
He replied, "There you go again with the sweetness and humbleness!" I blushed and replied, "That's just me! Can I ask you a question?" he chucked and said, "Shoot." I asked, "Why do you keep complementing me? It's really, sweet." He blushed and replied, "They are true and sincere comments." I answered, "Wow you are so proper." It was a red light when he turned to me, winked, and said, "That's just me Rose." I couldn't help but laugh, I mean he was funny as hell. We soon arrived at my house when Jacob tensed up again.
"You live with the Cullens?" I lowered my head and replied, "You might think this is nuts but Edward is my brother, my biological brother and Carlisle is my biological uncle." He started at me with wide eyes then asked, "Do you have a pen?" I quickly gave him one when he took my left hand in his. He scribbled down some which I realized was a phone number, HIS phone number. He gave me my pen back, and then I took his hand and quickly scribbled mine down too. Jacob got out of the car to open the door for me and I got out.
He walked me up the driveway and stopped when we reached the door. I smiled letting a stray piece of brown hair fall over my shoulder. I leaned my back against the door frame as Jacob tucked the stray hair behind my ear and looked down at his hand when he asked:
"Can I ask you something else?"
"Anything, just say the word."
"Beautiful handwriting too?"
"I guess so."
"Well do you want to hang out tomorrow?"
"Sure, but I'm going to La Push beach after school, want to meet me there?"
He nodded, and hugged me. His musty sweet smell allured me until we separated. I gave him a quick smile and wave before I headed inside. When I entered the house Emmet and Rosalie were sitting on the couch. I said a quick high before rushing into my studio I had gotten for my birthday. Rosalie came in after me.
"Rose are you ok?"
"Are you kidding, I never felt better!"
"I'm glad, but are you sure?"
"I'm sure Rosalie."
"Well, I got you this."
She handed me a small package. I smiled and hugged her. We sat down on my coach there and I slowly opened the package. Inside was a small red diary. Its pages were aligned with gold and it was beautiful. My eyes lit up and I turned to Rosalie and Said, "Wow I love it. It's beautiful. Thank you Rosalie." She smiled and replied, "Well it is the least I could do since you're the closest thing I had to a daughter. But Rose be careful with that mutt." I was confused when she said, "Forget it, just fill this house with music." and she went into the living room with Emmet.
What did she mean by that mutt? Well if she meant Jacob I didn't see what the problem was. I just continued towards my piano and started playing a random symphony by Beethoven. I stayed in my little studio in the house for 2 hours undisturbed until everyone came back.
