Sorry!! I havn't updated in like forever but I've been really busy. So here is the next chapter.

Friends and Boyfriends

End of Thinking:

"We need to talk."

"Ok"

I took a deep breath.

"Look Edward, I know you are sorry and I know that you want me to forgive you and take you back, but I just cant do that…"

Anguish filled his eyes.

"…completely"

He looked up at me and a smiled played on his lips.

"Wait." I said before he could get to happy. " I'm not going to take you back as my boyfriend. Only as a friend"

"Thank you Bella. You wont regret this."

I hope not.

"One more thing. Don't ever stalk me again. I am not your girlfriend anymore, I can hang out with whoever I want to. "

"But Bella. He's a young werewolf. It's not safe."

"I don't care if it's not safe. I trust Jake"

" If he hurts you"

" He is not going to hurt me!" I cut him off. " I like being around him. And even if he did hurt me you have no right to do anything to him."

"I have every right to do something to him!"

"I am not a child! I can take care of myself! You don't have a right to do anything to Jake because I am not yours anymore. If you want to at least be friends you have to grasp that"

" Must you always make things so difficult for me?" He groaned

"Yes" I said as if it was obvious.

"Well I suppose I can trust that dog if you do"

"Thank you"

The bell rang.

The rest of the day went by in a blur. Now that I was just friends with Edward the day seemed to flow more smoothly. Part of this was probably because it was so tense around Edward lately and I was almost pressuring time to move faster. Now , since my newly found friendship with Edward I was just letting the time pass.

When the final bell rang I paced to my car. I was a little anxious to see Jacob. When I got to my car Edward was standing right at the door.

" I thought you might want a ride home."

" When some one asks someone if they want a ride it's usually in their car." I observed.

" I could still drive you home in your car."

" Sorry Edward but I'm not going home."

He caught on immediately. " Oh. Ok then. Maybe tomorrow."

" Yeah. Maybe tomorrow."

I got in my car and watched as he paced away to his silver Volvo. I put my key in the ignition and my car rumbled to life.

As I made my way to LaPush I thought about what I was about to do.

I can't believe I'm going to tell Jake how I feel.

Now that Edward is no longer mine and I am no longer his, I have been thinking about our kiss on my porch and what he said to me in his garage.

"Look. I know you need some time to think and to trust in love again, but I want you to know that… I love you Bella. I just want you to know that I'll be here for you as a friend while you're healing. But when you need a boyfriend I want you to choose me. I would never ever do any thing to hurt you like he did. Just know that I'm here." The words echoed in my mind.

I some how knew he would never and could never hurt me. He truly cared for me. Even though the love would not be the same as it was with Edward but all love wasn't the same.

I love Jacob Black.

The sound of my name being called brought me back to reality. It was Jake of course. He must of heard my truck from down the street.

As soon as I shut off the engine Jake opened my door and pulled me into a massive bear hug.

" Hey Jake." I said as soon as he let me go.

" Hey Bells. What's up?"

"Ummm. Could we go in your garage and talk?"

"Yeah, sure."

As soon as we were in the garage I turned to him.

" Jake. I know that you will never hurt me and I know that you love me and well…. I just want you to know that I… love you to, and I want to be your girlfriend.

Then I pulled his astonished face down to mine and kissed him with more passion than imagined. It's hard to explain but I felt content, happy. I felt like I belonged there. I was in bliss.

Jacobs POV

I heard Bella's truck from down the road.

" Bella" I screamed as I ran out of the house.

She looked at me.

Those eyes. I thought. Those chocolate brown eyes. I can't believe she came.

As soon as she stopped the truck I opened her door and pulled her into my arms.

" Hey Jake" she said as soon as I put her down.

" Hey Bells. What's up"

" Ummm Jake can we go in your garage and talk?"

" Yeah ,sure" What did she have to say that she couldn't say I public.

As soon as we were in the garage she turned to face me.

" Jake. I know that you will never hurt me and I know that you love me and well…"She paused. Oh no. She was probably going to say that we should stay friends or something like that.

"…I just want you to know that I… love you to." What? She… she said she loved me.

She pulled my face down to hers to kiss me passionately. I was so happy. Bella had chose me. I would not jeopardize her. I would hold on to her. I would make her happy.
