I was very tired now, but I couldn't sleep. I continued to think about Edward he must be so worried about me. I wondered how the reception went. What did they do when it came to the time for speeches, when I was supposed to throw the bouquet and when me and Edward where supposed to be heading off for our hunny moon. My thoughts faded to black and I drifted into a dark sleep. I woke to the sound of someone's voice, I could have sworn it was Edward so I shot up and wrapped my arms around him tight, my heart raced so quickly with happiness. "I knew you'd come and get me"
"Get you from where? Bella you've been here all night" Then I opened my eyes and was hugely disappointed to see Jacob hugging into me in response to my grasp upon him. I quickly unwrapped my arms from him and sat upright at the edge of the bed, with my back to Jacob.
"What are you doing in here? Were you watching me sleep?"
"No, no I was just coming to see if your arm was any better"
"It's fine" I said abruptly
"Please Bella talk to me"
"I am"
"You know what I mean. Talk to me more; tell me things, like things you used to tell me when I'd get angry"
"There's nothing to tell, I'm stuck in here with you"
I just ignored his requests and continued to look down at the floor. I began to think again. About the injuries I got last night. It reminded me of my last birthday; I spent it with the Cullen…… my family. My injury and the way I got it was like that day when I got a paper cut and all the family swarmed over me like vultures to a dead carcass. In Edward attempt to secure me he pushed me back and I fell onto the shattered glass plates that torn my arm.
I came out of my daydream of that memory to feel Jacobs now very close presence.
"Bella, if only you knew how hard it is to be this close to you and not take advantage of it then you'd realise that I am having to make sacrifices to, until you realise what is best for you"
"Sacrifices, you think all of this is a sacrifice that I have to make, no Jacob, no it is not, you are keeping me here hostage"
"Don't say it like that, it's not a hostage, it's me Bella, I am not the sort of person who takes people hostage"
"Ok well then what would you call it?" I asked sharply
"Love"
"Love, Jacob this is not love, I admit I love you but not in the same way as you do, the love you show for me is the love I show for Edward" Jacob grabbed my face within his hands and pressed his lips to mine. I couldn't push myself from him. His kiss was so strong that for a moment I just gave into it and endured the kiss that Edward would never allow. Only when I could not breathe did I raise my hand up as if to hit him. In mid swing he caught it and said still touching my lips
"Now, you remember what happened last time" He pushed my hand down to the covers of the bed and continued to kiss me. His hand worked its way up my arm till it was resting on my shoulder. There was no way for me to get our of it. This kiss made up of mixed emotions, anger, fear, sadness and loneliness. Until eventually his hands set my face free. Even as we began to part his one hand stayed on my shoulder and the other wrapped around my waste.
"See, I told you it was nothing" Jacob said with a sound of happiness in what he said
"You said you wouldn't take advantage Jacob, I'm married get that through your thick head"
"I can't help it Bella your so hard to resist, and you didn't seem to be in any sort of a hurry to be free of me" I realised that what Jacob was saying was true I was starting to consider that Jacob was right
