One More Night
Chapter Four
Jacob was tossing a football back and forth with Quil and Embry on the beach to distract himself. He was so worried about Bella since he never got a call back and he hoped her change went smoothly and that she would return soon so they could be together.
The last two and a half weeks had been torture since he last saw her and he needed to know she was alright before he could really relax.
"What has your panties all in a twist?" Embry asked as he threw the ball to Jacob and he sighed in response.
"I guess, I just miss Bella." Quil rolled his eyes from the continuation of the Bella pain fest. It was annoying, more so than the Sam-Emily-Leah triangle.
"Dude, she's gone. You have to get over her." Jacob just rolled his eyes at them as Embry watched a yellow taxi cab drive up with tinted windows so, even with their supernatural vision, they couldn't see who was being transported.
"Hell, you don't see that every day." All three laughed until the cabbie got out of the front seat and opened the back door, extending his hand to whoever was in it.
Jacob instantly recognized the giggle that came from the passenger, instantly dropping the ball from the sound.
"Thank you, Eli. That's not necessary." The man chuckled. "Thank you for taking me all this way. I know it's a long drive from Port Angeles to here." Then, she got out and all three of their jaws dropped. There stood Bella, her hair back in a ponytail, wearing a nice beige dress that went to her knees and a pair of black flats before handing some cash to the driver.
"It was no problem. Thank you for the gift for my daughter. I'm sure she will love it." Bella giggled and nodded.
"It was no problem. I don't need it anyways." She referred to her favorite book, Romeo and Juliet. It was just a reminder of Edward and she didn't want to be constantly reminded of her failed marriage. "Have a good day." She stepped away from the cab and he sped away before she looked to Jacob, a happy smile on her face.
He knew instantly that she was still human. He could smell her scent, see her blush, and her beautiful brown eyes from the football field distance he was from her.
This confused and excited him.
"Bella." He ran towards her and she sprint to him until he picked her up in his arms, spinning her around, while they embraced. She giggled from the amazing welcome he gave her before she kissed him.
Seeing Edward's wife kissing their friend confused the boys watching before Jacob put her down.
"What are you doing here? You're still you?" She nodded happily before she moved back into his arms, sniffing his musk. God, how she missed his scent.
"I'm still me. I came back early." She explained easily before he hugged her tight, a sigh of relief leaving his mouth.
"God, I missed you, honey." She giggled before kissing his bare chest.
"I missed you." He pulled back as the two boys walked towards them, unsure of what to make of their reunion. "We need to talk and it's very important." She referred to the news of her pregnancy and he nodded before looking to his best friends.
"Hey, Bella." Embry spoke kindly as Quil looked at her confused.
"Hey, guys. I need to steal Jake from you for a little bit." They nodded with light chuckles.
"It's cool. I have a play date with Claire to get ready for." Quil nudged Embry to quickly come up with an excuse and he nodded, knowing he wasn't needed there.
"Yeah, and I have a dinner my mom wants my help with. See you guys." The two boys ran off and Jacob helped Bella to their tree while she carried her small bag with her. They sat down and she looked at the beautiful waves, crashing against the surf.
"I almost forgot how beautiful it is here." He chuckled before he wrapped his arm around her waist, both of them watching the beautiful beach.
"Yeah, too bad it wasn't this good of a day when you went cliff diving, huh?" He teased her and she giggled in response before looking up at him.
"Too bad you weren't cliff diving with me that day." She teased back before he sweetly kissed her, cupping her cheek in his hand. She softly moaned before he released the heartfelt kiss.
"What happened?" He asked suddenly as she saw his expression change from joy to anticipation. She looked back out at the surf, a hopeless expression in her eyes.
"Edward asked me for a divorce. Well, annulment, but still." Jacob gasped as he turned to her.
"Why? What happened to cause that?" She gulped before she hugged her stomach.
"He figured out what happened the night before the wedding, between me and you." She looked to him and saw the same hopelessness in his eyes that had been in hers.
"How?" She sighed before looking back out at the surf.
"We were at this island home off the coast of Rio that Carlisle named Isle Esme. It was beautiful. It was the morning I was supposed to be changed and I ended up with my head in the toilet. Edward was comforting me and everything like normal Edward would. I asked him to get my bag that would have all the stuff I would need to settle my stomach and, when he gave it to me, I opened it up and he got this look on his face like he had gone into shock and he just asked me if I had sex with someone before the wedding." Now, Jacob was confused.
"Why would he suddenly ask something like that? How did that even enter his mind?" She gulped before nodding, encouraging herself to tell him about their baby.
"Because, in the silence, he could only hear my heart and a heart down here." She placed her hands over her lower abdomen, a shock filling Jacob's soul. She looked to him and saw the disbelief in his eyes before she returned her gaze back to the surf. "I think he was shocked at first because he didn't say anything for a while until I felt it move. I wasn't expecting that to happen, but it just confirmed further what Edward already told me, that I'm pregnant." Jacob let out a breath as he, too, faced the surf, rubbing his hands together nervously.
"Wow." He said in a huff before standing up, a light tremble going through his arms, before he looked down at her, disbelief in his eyes.
"Listen closely and you'll hear it too if you think I'm lying about this." She snapped at him from her hurt at his expression before looking away from him. He felt terrible for his reaction and sighed.
"Bells, why did he automatically know it had to be mine and wasn't his?" He asked and her eyes filled with tears before she looked down at her hands.
"I guess you didn't really get it when I told you after the wedding. The original plan was that Edward and I would...but, that plan changed when me and you were together like that." He listened closely as his heart sped up. "I knew I couldn't do that with him for a few reasons, but the most important one was that it would feel like I was betraying you." She gulped as he knelt in front of her, placing his warm hand gently on her cool cheek.
"Bells, look at me." She looked to him and he saw the tears about to fall from her eyes as he pressed his forehead to hers. "Is it true? Is this baby really mine?" He questioned her and she stood up before turning away from him, walking towards the parking lot. "Bells, wait!" He called after her as she hugged her chest, tears falling rapidly down her face.
"Just great. Both guys who claim to love me think I'm a slut because I'm pregnant." He grabbed her hand and turned her back to him, holding her captive in his arms. "Let me go, Jacob!" She commanded, but he held her tighter.
"Bells, please. I don't think that way about you. It's just surreal." He kissed her forehead and laid feathery kisses all over her gorgeous, glowing face, getting a soft moan from her. "You're still human, you're here, and you're pregnant." She sighed as she looked up at him before she pulled his face down to hers, passionately kissing his plump, blazing lips. He growled as he held her closer before she giggled.
"Be careful there with your bear hugs. I may like them, but someone else might not." He chuckled before he released her, gingerly placing his hand on her lower abdomen, feeling the hard bump under his hand.
"Wow." He chuckled as she leaned her head on his arm then the baby kicked. Bella jumped and placed her hand over his, giggling.
"Wow is right." He looked at her worried before she giggled. "I'm okay. It's just surprising anytime it does that. I'm not expecting it because that's the only movement I feel, when the baby kicks." He sighed before placing his cheek on the top of her head.
"I know I shouldn't be happy about this, but I love you and I know this now means we can have a family together." She giggled and nodded before they stared out at the open ocean, seeing some dolphins jumping around off in the distance. "What about the Volturi?" He asked softly and she sighed.
"I don't know. Edward said he was sending Carlisle and Esme to deliver them news that I died on our honeymoon so me, you, and our baby could be together." He smirked softly before kissing her forehead.
"That's nice." She nodded.
"He said to stay by your side until I get a call from him saying that we are in the clear. We can't take the chance of Alice seeing my future and saying something to Carlisle or Esme before they leave the Volturi. If she does, Aro, the head of the Volturi, will see it in their heads and know they are lying. The only way it will work is if the Cullen's, for now, think I'm dead." He nodded before he tilted her head up, placing a sweet kiss on her soft lips. A gentle moan left her lips before he released the kiss.
"I love you, honey." She smirked up at him softly.
"I love you." He chuckled before he grabbed her hand in his massive one.
"Come on, Bells. Let's go to my house." She nodded and they strolled in silence back to the Black house, a place she hadn't been since the evening of the newborn battle. The last time she had seen this house, Jacob was injured and she told him that she couldn't be with him, leaving out the reason why.
She really wished she had told him her reasoning back then. Maybe he wouldn't have left, but he was there now and that was what really mattered.
They strolled into the house and she noticed that Billy wasn't there, which confused her.
"Where's your dad?" She asked curiously and he chuckled.
"Gone fishing with Charlie. It's just us, Bells, until tomorrow." She blushed as she saw the intensity in his eyes, knowing full well what exactly he hoped they would do to kill time.
He guided her to his room before they entered, him locking the door behind them. He didn't want anyone to interrupt them at all. She was surprised that it wasn't his old room that he had taken her to. They were in the twins old room and the two twin beds had been replaced with a king sized bed. The rest of Jacob's belongs were in their right place as they had been in his old room and this room felt a lot more spacious, comfortable, to her.
He picked her up and sat her on the bed, giving it had two box springs under the mattress to help with the height difference, and she giggled as he stood before for.
"Why did you move to a different room?" He chuckled softly as she still held his hand in hers.
"More room. Plus, since it's only Rachel instead of both my sisters, she took my room and I got this one. It's a lot less cramped." She nodded before a soft giggle left her lips.
"Yeah and the bed is definitely big enough for you now. You shouldn't be so uncomfortable when you're sleeping." He nodded and ran his fingers along the beige fabric of her dress over her abdomen before his fingers moved down her thigh to the hem of the expensive material.
"I didn't expect you to wear something so….professional just to come and see me." She blushed before she pressed her hands to his chest.
"Alice packed my bag. There wasn't much that I would go out in public in. Mostly bathing suits and very revealing lingerie that stayed in the suitcase." He chuckled as he spread her legs a little, pushing the dress up her hips, before stepping between those plump thighs of hers.
"Even with that, you are so beautiful." She blushed and he pressed his mouth to hers, sweet and slow at first then it heated up. She gripped her hands in his hair as she whimpered in response, his heated tongue invading her mouth, and he reached behind her, pulling down the zipper of her dress painfully slow. His mouth left hers and moved across her jaw as her head fell back.
"Jake." She moaned his name as she moved her arms out of the dress and he pushed it down her waist. His hot hands massaged her bare, cool back as the dress moved down and he removed his mouth from her.
"Let's get this off." He spoke huskily and she bit her lip, nodding, before she laid back on the comfortable mattress. He pulled the bunched up dress over her hips and off her legs before it landed on the floor. He looked to her and his heart fluttered.
She was so perfect, black underwear complimenting her pale skin, and she laid there, hands next to her head, ready for him to do whatever he planned to. He sweetly kissed each of her knees, eliciting a soft moan from her, before he pulled back and started to work at his shorts.
They both knew exactly what he had planned and she was in desperate need of him.
"Two weeks is too long, Bells." She giggled and nodded, blushing.
"Agreed." She replied in a teasing tone as he kicked away his shorts before climbing into the bed, pulling her with him to the top of the bed. With her in his arms, he passionately kissed her, both of them quickly getting lost, and he removed the underwear from her before he buried himself inside her up to the hilt. Both moaned aloud as he released the kiss.
"This isn't going to hurt the baby, is it?" He asked softly and she shook her head, clawing at his back.
"God, no. Please, Jake." He attacked her mouth with passionate kisses before he started his love making. His length thrusted, pounded, while his hips rolled into hers and her hips pressed towards his from how amazing it felt.
She never thought sex would feel so good until she lost her virginity to the very man before her.
"How's that, honey?" He questioned and she whimpered while arching.
"Feels so good." He flipped them over and she gripped to his chest, rolling her hips against his, an aroused groan leaving her lips. "God, it's so amazing, how you feel inside me." She whined as he gripped onto her hips, thrusting up into her from underneath.
"I want you to feel good, honey." She grasped her bare breast in her hand as she moaned aloud and teased her nipple. She was on the edge and was eager for her release. "God, that's so hot. You touching yourself like that." He growled as he thrusted harder into her and she let out another surprised moan with each power filled thrust of his godly hips.
"I'm so close." He thrusted one last time before he pulled out of her, earning a gasp. "Why did you stop!" She couldn't believe he would do that when she just told him how close she was to her release. He chuckled and rolled his eyes.
"Get on your hands and knees, honey." She moaned before she obliged to his command and he mounted her, gripping one hand on her hip and the other on the wall in front of them. He slammed his hips into hers over and over, each one more powerful than the last. She gripped the sheets in her hands as she moaned loudly, a whimper coming with each moan. "How's that, Bells? You like it when I do it like that?" He slammed his hips back into hers as she pressed her hand to the wall above her head, groaning aloud.
"Yes! God, yes! It's so fucking good!" She cried out as her orgasm approached again, just as there was a jingle to his bedroom door.
"Jake, open up!" He heard the voice of Paul, his pack brother and the wolf who imprinted on his sister, before Jacob growled.
"Go away!" He rolled his hips into hers as she gripped onto his thigh, whimpering.
"Don't stop, please. It's so good when you do that." She egged him on as he kissed her sweet temple, slowing down his pace a little more.
"What, are you watching porn, dude?" Jacob growled again at his pack brothers stubbornness.
"None of your fucking business! Get out of here!" Paul laughed as Jacob twirled his hips at Bella's entrance, her whimpering.
"Please, I don't care if he hears me. Just, please, fuck me." He smirked as he started back at his old pace, slamming his hips into hers over and over with a twist of his hips. She moaned dramatically as he slapped her nice, rounded ass, enjoying the sound it made. "Oh, my god!" She exclaimed as her hips met his, their thrusting together creating that much more friction. "Yes! Yes, Jake!" She cried out to finally have her release, hoping for it to finally come and not be stalled again.
"You want me to keep going like that, Bells?" She nodded as she whimpered and they heard the laugh on the other side of the door, realizing that Paul now knew Jacob was having sex with Bella and not just watching porn.
"I'm so fucking close. Please, Jake, make me cum." She cried out to him and he nodded, grasping her slender hips in his hands, as he completely ravished her while teasing her clit with his heated thumb.
"I'll make you cum, honey. I'm happy to do that for you." She whimpered and gasped as her released hit, her juices leaking down her leg and spraying continuous across his abs. "There, honey. You got to cum. Now, it's my turn." She moaned as he continued in on her, thrusting his hip, teasing her sweet, perky breasts, and placing kisses along her neck. Soon, he found his release and they laid down in the bed, both struggling to catch their breath. He grabbed his comforter as she laid her head on his chest and wrapped it around them, him holding her close.
"The sex better always be like that." He chuckled in response before kissing the top of her head.
"Thanks for the compliment, honey. I'm just glad Paul left us alone." She giggled before she looked up at him.
"What was he doing here, anyways?" Jacob shrugged momentarily.
"Not sure. He was supposed to be out with Rachel. He's probably just jealous because she won't put out to him." Bella gasped before she looked to him, flabbergasted.
"Hold it right there. Paul and Rachel, your sister?" He nodded with a look of disgust in his eyes and her jaw dropped.
"Yeah, the work of an imprint in action. You can just imagine how I beat his ass when that happened." Bella sat up, holding her hair out of her face.
"That really doesn't make any sense whatsoever, but yet, I also haven't seen your sister since I left Forks when I was little." He chuckled with a nod of his head.
"You're not the only one who thinks it's weird. Me and my dad do, too, and not because of the whole age thing." She looked to him confused.
"What age thing?" She asked curiously and Jacob chuckled.
"Rach is twenty-one and Paul just turned sixteen." Bella made a disgusted face before sitting up.
"Okay, that is just gross." He threw his head back laughing as he sat up, too. "What the hell was fate thinking?" Jacob laughed again before pulling her into his side. "That's a five year age difference, Jake. Paul is fucking jailbait. I would have done worse than beat his ass." Jacob rolled his eyes in response.
"Rachel isn't fucking him, Bells." She rolled her eyes in response.
"For now, she isn't, but you don't know how long that will last. Hell, I wasn't expecting us to have sex the night before the wedding. It's not something you always plan for." He chuckled before he sweetly kissed her forehead.
"One, Rachel told him not even look at her that way or to even be alone with her until his eighteenth birthday. Secondly, I'm not jailbait where you are concerned." She just rolled her eyes.
"As far as you think. I'm going to be nineteen in two weeks, Jake, and you will still be sixteen. Which means, in the eyes of the law, in two weeks, you will be jailbait." His eyes widened in shock while she smirked playfully at him. "Which also means, you won't be getting any sex until your birthday, Jacob." He looked like she took away a very important part of his life.
"Are you serious, Bells?" She giggled before she shook her head.
"I'm messing with you, Jake. God, don't look like I just stole your bone. You are such a guy." He growled and pushed her down on the bed before he kissed down her neck, getting a moan from her.
"That was messed up, Bells." She giggled as he pulled back, smirking at her. "That would be complete torture." She bit her lip at him before they kissed, holding each other ever so closely.
"You went sixteen years without sex. I think you could go a couple months." He chuckled before gracing her lips with a sweet kiss. "There is a three year age difference allowed in that, Jake. It's part of the Romeo and Juliet laws of the whole statutory rape thing." His head cocked to the side as she giggled at the perplexed expression.
"Romeo and Juliet laws?" She nodded with a roll of her eyes.
"Do you really not know what that is?" He nodded. "The Romeo and Juliet laws is a set of stipulations that are meant to keep couples in high school from going to jail for having sex, like the whole having three years or less in age difference." He chuckled before he kissed her sweetly.
"How do you know about that?" He wiggled his eyebrow at her and she flushed in response.
"Renee is a paralegal. It's been drilled into me from a young age." He chuckled as he softly stroked her hair, getting a soft moan.
"And why would she be drilling that into you?" She giggled before she pushed him down onto the bed, straddling his waist, before she blushed.
"Because she nearly went to jail when she got pregnant with me." His eyes widened before he gasped and she giggled. "Renee was eighteen and had met Charlie in high school, but she really didn't know his age and didn't find out until the cops were knocking on her doorstep because my grandma called the cops when Charlie told her that Renee was pregnant. She only didn't go to prison because I was conceived before her eighteenth birthday." His eyes narrowed a little with focus in them. "Those Romeo and Juliet laws weren't passed back then, but luckily for you, they were passed a couple years ago." He chuckled as she bent down, passionately kissing him. He sat up and wrapped his arms around her slender frame, holding her close. She whimpered as she held his mouth to hers and he hardened against her. She groaned as he palmed her firm bottom while she grinded into his thick, heated sex. She moaned as a growl slipped out of his lips. "Jake, please." She pleaded with him to get rid of her ache once more before he flipped them over, pulling his sheet over them.
"If I have my way, we will be doing that all day and all night, Bells." She whimpered as his mouth moved down her neck before he buried himself inside of her and she moaned loudly. "We have to make up for lost time, honey." She clawed at him as she wildly kissed him, thrusting her hips towards him.
"We definitely have a lot of time to make up for." He chuckled before he kissed her again. He loved her wildly with his tongue rubbing against hers and he rolled, pounded his hips into hers, grunting with each powerful, passionate thrust.
"Come on, Rach!" Paul scoffed at his imprint as she was walking as fast as she could back to her father's house, anger rolling off of her.
"No, I'm going to kick my brother's ass! Who the fuck does he think he is!" She was livid from the moment Paul told her that, when he went to the house to try to get the keys to the Rabbit to borrow his car, that Jacob was having loud and crazy sex. He wasn't exactly sure what the big deal was, but he wasn't about to argue with Rachel. Her temper had been known to put his to shame and she had also figured out how to beat a wolf's ass as a human.
All the imprints were scared of Rachel Black for a reason.
When she entered the house, her entire family home was filled with the loud banging noise of Jacob's bed hitting the wall over and over again, the sound of Bella's loud moans, and Jacob dramatic groans.
She sneered as she stormed down the hall before she grabbed the key to the room that she had stashed years ago above the door frame before she unlocked the door.
"Sure you want to do that, babe?" She growled at Paul before she pushed the door open.
"What the fuck, Jacob!" She yelled at her brother as she only saw him moving against the faceless girl beneath him. He snapped his head around as he stilled his movements, growling.
"Get the fuck out of here, Rachel!" Bella, embarrassed, hid herself with Jacob's massive frame as he turned his angry eyes to his sister.
"Get your ass dressed. We are going to have a long fucking talk, little brother." He growled as she closed the door back and he pulled himself out of the beauty girl he loved before she groaned, running her hands through her hair.
"What the fuck?" She questioned with a whisper as he nodded before sitting next to her.
"I don't know. I don't even know how she got in. I locked the door. I swear, I did, honey." She nodded before she smirked at him lovingly.
"I know you did, Jake. I'm pretty sure she heard what we were doing, but she still busted in here like that?" He nodded with a roll of his eyes.
"Yeah. Let's get dressed and deal with her. Then, I promise, we will do something fun." She blushed before she kissed him sweetly.
"I love you, Jake." He gently pressed his forehead to hers before softly stroking her back.
"I love you, so much." She giggled before she pushed the sheet off of her, slipping out of the bed. She shrieked until her feet touched the floor and he chuckled in response.
"Our height difference is bordering on ridiculous, Jacob." She looked to him with teasing in her eyes before he chuckled, climbing out of the bed with ease. He stood before her with a cocky grin on his face. "You know, when I moved here, a year ago, you were only two or three inches taller than me." He chuckled before he bent down and gave her another sweet kiss.
"I guess we'll just have to find you some stilts, little one." She punched him in the gut, soft enough not to hurt her hand, before he chuckled.
"You're a real riot." She rolled her eyes as both of them pulled back on their clothes.
"You know you love me." He pulled her back to him before she kissed him.
"You are right about that." He chuckled before he opened his bedroom door, holding her hand in his. They walked down the hall and entered the living room to see Paul and Rachel sitting side by side on the couch before Rachel got up, storming over towards them.
As a child, she had never been scared of Rachel, but with that fire in her eyes,, boy, was she scared then.
"What the hell is wrong with you!" Rachel yelled at Jacob as Bella held his hand tight in hers, afraid that if she let go that things might get ten times worse than they already were going to be.
"You would have to be specific, Rach. You did interrupt me and my girlfriend." Bella's heart fluttered from what he called her. She had thought for so long that she would never have that title in reference to Jacob Black, but that's really what she was.
Among other things like mother to his unborn child, love of his life, and close friend.
"Exactly! What the hell is wrong with you? Do you have absolutely no respect left for Dad at all? I can't believe you actually have the nerve to fuck this girl in his house! Plus, you're fucking sixteen! You shouldn't even be having sex!" He rolled his eyes as Bella stayed silent by his side, watching the exchange closely. He was getting highly irritated by Rachel and quickly at that.
"Don't be so damn hypocritical, Rach. Becca had sex in this house all the time and I know that because I heard it. Not to mention, you didn't seem to worried about disrespect when you fucked Sam at his mom's house when you were fifteen sso don't come here trying to lecture me about my respect for Dad." Bella could see the obvious hurt in Rachel's eyes as Bella filled with shock at what Jacob had said concerning Rachel's past.
Sam and Rachel? Wow. She thought to herself as Jacob continued his rant.
"You don't get to talk about my respect for Dad when you ran out on him, you and Rebecca. You knew he needed to be taken care of and you ran out, leaving it to a thirteen year old kid to deal with. You didn't give two shits about Dad or what you threw on my plate when it should have been yours and Rebecca's responsibility. Both of you were more capable than I was, but you were selfish and ran off to have your fun little college life while real life hit hard here without either of you." Rachel was shocked by her brother throwing her absence in her face and it wasn't in anger.
He had been holding this in for almost four years and, now, she was going to hear exactly what she deserved.
"I didn't run out. I went to college." Rachel defended herself quietly, shame filling her from her brother's point of view of her actions.
"Really? Because, you were offered a full scholarship to U-Dub, where you still could have been close, but you chose to go to NYU, all the way across the States, where, still, you could have taken online classes from here. You want to throw another reason for you leaving like that? Everyone fucking knows why you can out. You couldn't fuccking cope with Mom dying and neither could Rebecca. That's why she agreed to married that Hawaiian jerk, Solomon, who was constantly in and out of jail for getting drunk and beating up on her." Rachel stayed silent from her brother's accusations as Paul and Bella stood by, watching the intense exchange.
All Bella had been told about all this was that Sarah died and, once the twins graduated, they both left immediately.
"I don't give a shit about your excuses for running away, but don't you dare come into this house and try to say I'm the one with no respect for Dad or badger me for my choices in life. My choices haven't negatively affected anyone which is more than I can say for you. I swear, Rach, if I so much as hear one more word from you about I'm not respectful, make bad choices, or even say so much as one ill word against her," Jacob squeezed Bella's waist before he continued on. "I won't be so nice. Got it?" He challenged her with his tone as Bella squeezed his hand softly.
"Jake, calm down, okay?" Bella spoke softly, her voice erasing the edge in his stance before he looked down at her. "I think she might just be more so worried about you. Don't take it out on Rachel." Paul placed his arm around Rachel's waist as she hugged her chest, moving away from Paul.
Jacob was right. She was a terrible daughter, a terrible sister, and a selfish person to put her brother through that when he was so young. She had never felt so much guilt in her life as she did right then, but she tried to ignore it.
"Who are you?" Rachel asked softly as she narrowed her eyes in confusion at the young woman who was attached to her brother, while he looked down at her with such affection that it was nearly nauseating. Bella looked to her childhood playmate who failed to recognize her with a small giggle.
"You don't recognize me, Rach?" He examined the blushing, glowing young woman's face before her realization struck, shocking her.
"Bella?" The young, pale woman nodded with a kind smile on her face as confused nearly overwhelmed her. "Wait a second.. Hold the phone and take a few steps back for a minute." Bella and Jacob both tilted their heads in confusion at Rachel as she ran her hands through her hair. "Jacob, did you call her your 'girlfriend'?" Rachel asked and her little brother, who wasn't so little anymore, nodded with a happy grin on his face before the twenty-one year old looked between the couple. "I could have swore my dad said you got married like a month ago or something like that. Please, don't tell me you are cheating on your husband with my little brother!" Rachel begged and Bella shook her head before placing her head on Jacob's warm chest as Jacob smirked at Paul.
"I have something to say in this." Paul finally spoke and the three others finally looked at him, unsure of what he had to add to this. "She may not be able to say anything because she has no idea what has gone on concerning you, Bella, but I can because I have seen and heard it all either first hand or second hand through Jacob." Bella nodded while she gave Paul her full attention, trying to respectful. She knew, while Paul had the floor, that he would say something nasty to her, but she wasn't prepared for what came out of his mouth.
"What is it, Paul?" She spoke sweetly and his eyes narrowed before he looked to Jacob.
"You can phase my ass later for this, but I think she has a right to know." Jacob wasn't even sure what Paul was about to say until he looked to Bella and it came out of his mouth. "You are nothing, but a whore, Bella." All three others gasped and Bella had intense hurt in her eyes from Paul's callous words.
"Paul!" Jacob and Rachel bellowed at the same time, but he ignored the Black siblings.
"You have been dragging Jacob around on a leash for the past eight months and everyone in the pack keeps their mouths shut because of his crush on you, but I'm not everyone else. You have used him and thrown him away just to pull him back out of the trash to start to cycle all over again. Though you have your leech of a husband, you are still here, hounding him. Now, you've fucked him and made it that much worse for all of us because, I know when you go back to Cullen, like you always do, he is going to be ten times as snippy and depressive as Leah ever is. It's all going to be because of you and the fact that you can't make up your fucking mind. Put on your big girl panties and make up your fucking mind between the leech and Jake and stick to it!" Paul was getting angry and tears filled Bella's eyes as Jacob growled.
"Thank you for letting me know how you feel about me, Paul, but I did make a decision and it was a no brainer. Edward and I are getting a divorce." Paul just rolled eyes as Rachel watched the conversation idoly.
"Why the hell would anyone believe that crock of shit, Cullen? Why the hell would you divorce Sparkle Pants?" Bella's stomach started to churn as she clung to Jake, hoping to hold off on her morning sickness.
"Because I'm-I'm…" She trailed off as she groaned, covering her mouth. "I'm gonna be sick." She ran as fast as she could to the bathroom before she threw up in the toilet.
"Now, we may never know her bullshit answer." Paul joked as Jacob scowled.
"It's not bullshit, you dick. Bella is divorcing him to be with me and for us to have a life together." Paul just rolled his eyes as Rachel continued to watch the exchange.
"And why would she do that?" Jacob just groaned in response.
"The same reason her head is in the toilet. She's pregnant." Both of the others in the room, Rachel and Paul, gasped aloud.
"What? Why the hell is she even here? We have to let Sam know about that thing." Jacob growled before he decked Paul, sending him down to the floor with a broken jaw.
"It's none of Sam's fucking business because I'm the one who got her pregnant. She is having my kid, alright?" Rachel gasped and moved past her brother before going to the bathroom. She rubbed Bella's back gently before she pulled all of the poor girl's hair back, trying to comfort her.
Bella threw up again before coughing which brought up more stomach acid, causing another cough from her.
"Just breath out your nose, Bella. It makes it a hell of a lot easier to stop the morning sickness." Rachel spoke softly and Bella followed her advice with a nod before gulping to get rid of the lump in her throat.
"Jacob told you about the baby?" Bella glanced at her and Rachel nodded before more tears filled Bella's eyes. "I'm not a whore just because Paul thinks I am. I wasn't trying to get pregnant and I love your brother with all my heart." Rachel nodded silently while she listened to the crying girl while continuing to rub comforting circles on her back. "I only married Edward to protect Jake and the pack from these vampires that spend their free time killing werewolves." Rachel gasped softly from this as another sob left Bella's lips. "I don't know what I would do if something happened to him, especially if I was the cause of it. The only reason those vampires have to come to Washington is because of me, because they want me to be changed. Edward would only let the Cullen's change me if I married him." Rachel nodded as she listened to Bella closely while Jacob was literally biting a chunk out of Paul's ass in the back yard for saying the things he did to Bella.
"Keep going." Bella nodded as she sniffled her tears.
"I was so happy when Jake came to see me the night before the wedding. Like always, he questioned whether that was what I wanted or not and I told him the truth, why I was really marrying Edward instead of being with Jake, having a life with him and all. One thing led to another and before I knew what was happening we were-" Rachel put her hand up with disgust on her face which made Bella giggle.
"I don't need a narration of you and my brother having sex. Please, don't put that image in my head." Bella nodded before she gulped, laying her cheek on the toilet bowl.
"I didn't want to go and marry Edward the next day. Every single part of me, except for the part that was my logic, wanted me to run as far away from that as I could. Even up until the point of which I was at the aisle, I wanted to run. I almost did. I was about to turn and run until I saw Jake in the woods, trying to show me his support of what I was doing. I knew he didn't want me to do it, but he had done so much to protect me. I needed to do what I could to protect him." Rachel smirked at her sweetly while she rubbed her back.
"Then, why are you getting a divorce? Is it really about you being pregnant?" Bella gulped and shook her head. "What is it, then?" Bella averted her gaze as more tears came.
"Because, when I found out about the baby, there was no way to explain my way around it. Edward and I didn't ever have sex so I only had the option of honesty. I told Edward everything from my real reason for marrying him to the night I spent with your brother." Rachael hissed a little, knowing that conversation had to have been unpleasant.
""How did he take that?" Bella gulped as Jacob stood outside the bathroom, listening silently.
"I have never seen him so angry. For a minute there, I was scared that he might do something to hurt me or my baby." Jacob's eyes widened as he heard this, a light tremble in his hands.
"Did he do something?" Rachel asked worried and Bella shook her head.
"He just yelled, a lot. He was so mad at me and at Jacob. At first, he wasn't sure who I had been with, but when I felt the baby kick, he knew it was Jacob that I had been with. Once he knew, that was when he got angry. He said a lot of mean things to me. He called me a whore and he called Jake a home wrecker, basically. Edward has always said that if I wanted a life with Jake that he would be fine with it, but that wasn't what he showed. He was so angry that I wanted to be with Jake. He always seemed so understanding of the dynamics of mine and Jake's friendship, how we loved each other, but that changed quickly when he found out about the baby and out all the pieces together." Bella took a quick breath before sighing. "I guess, maybe, I never really knew Edward Cullen at all. I just thought I did." Rachel nodded with a smirk as Jacob finally made his appearance, getting a loving smile from Bella. "Hey, you." She spoke with such a sweet voice and he smirked back at her
"Hey, are you okay?" She nodded with a sigh.
"Yeah, i was just waiting to make sure I wasn't going to throw up anymore. Can you grab my bag from your room? I really need to brush my teeth after that?" He chuckled and nodded with a smirk on his face.
"Sure, sure." He walked off to fetch her bag and Rachel smiled at Bella in a approving manner.
"You really do love him, don't you?" Bella nodded as her heart fluttered.
"More than anything." Rachel giggled quietly.
"Good. I'm glad he has you. Though, you have had a rough start, I know things will get better. They always do." Bella nodded as Rachel helped Bella stand up, Jacob making his way back to the bathroom.
He made it easier for her and just brought her the small bag of toiletries for her. She smiled lovingly at him before he sweetly kissed her cheek.
"Thanks, Jake." He chuckled while stepping out of the bathroom and Bella got to work on brushing her teeth. She nearly gagged on her mouthwash, but she was successful in not throwing up all over again.
After she finished, she made her way back out to the living room and found Jacob, Rachel, and Paul waiting for her.
