Silence Before Battle

Bella's POV

When I got home Charlie was on the couch watching ESPN. "Hey dad." I said as I put my coat away and walked into the kitchen. "Hey Bells. Did you have fun with Jacob?" He asked as I pulled out the ingredients I would need to make a couple of sandwiches.

"Yeah." I was going to tell him that we stopped by the Cullen's house but I had a feeling he wouldn't like that too much.

"What did you do?" Shit what was I going to tell him? I suck at lying and I can't exactly tell him the truth. What was I going to say:" Oh we went over to the Cullen's house to talk about where I'm going to be while the battle between an army of vampires and all of my supernatural loved ones takes place."

"Ummm we went to the beach." I said. It was a fairly good lie but my voice broke at the end of the sentence and Charlie came in the kitchen with a half stern and half nervous look on his face.

"Don't lie to me Bells."

"I'm not lying. We went to the beach and then afterwards we went over to Emily's and we talked while Jake and Sam did guy stuff." I said looking up at his face but not meeting his eyes.

"Bells." I was getting frustrated. Why did he have to be so observational?

"Dad what do you think we were doing. We seriously just went to the beach and over to Emily's to talk to her. THAT'S IT!" I raised my voice for extra effect. I must be getting better at lying because he finally changed the subject.

"I'm sorry Bells. I believe you."

"Thank you."

"But I think there is something we need to talk about. I was watching the news and it showed that teenagers between the ages of 16 and 18 are having unprotected sex. N-"

"DAD! JACOB AND I ARE NOT HAVING SEX! GOD!" my face went tomato red. Two sex talks in the same day!

"Look you're an adult now. You're 18 and you are free to do what you want and I can't stop you. But I just want to make sure that if you do have sex one you don't do it under my roof, two I don't know about it, and three you use protection. You don't want to be weighed down by a baby."

"Look dad I appreciate your concern but mom beat you to the punch 8 years ago. Anyways Jacob and I aren't having sex at all OK." I said as I put the finishing touches on his sandwich and gave it to him. He exhaled and took the sandwich.

"OK" He went and took his spot on the couch as I climbed the stairs and headed towards the bathroom. I got in the shower and as always I started to think. I don't know why I thought in the shower, I just did.

Was I ready for sex like Jacob was? I mean it could be a definite possibility. Jacob was ready, Charlie basically gave me permission to have sex as long as I met his demands. The only thing that was stopping us was me. Was I truly ready to do this? I mean Edward and I had never done it but what if he had? I don't want to look like a fool in bed.

Then the worst thought struck me. What if Jacob wasn't a virgin? Is that why he was so ready? I mean he was muscular, cute, funny, and gorgeous. I'm sure some girls have probably come on to him but had it ever gone farther than that? "No Jacob wouldn't do that. But he wants to with you. So. So he would do that. Oh shut up! I'm ready for this." Talking to myself. Ugh I am going insane. I'll just ask Jake tonight whether he is a virgin or not.

After my mini breakdown I shut off the water wrapped a towel around myself and went into my room. I heard Charlie go into his room and within minutes he was snoring. It was pitch black in my room but I was in a hurry so I didn't bother with the light. I franticly looked for my pj's when I heard a voice behind me.

"Now this is the best outfit I think you've ever worn." A husky voice came from the corner. I felt warm arms encircle my waist.

"Hey Bells."

"Hey Jake."

"I was wondering if you would go with me for an afternoon stroll." He said nipping my neck.

"Sure let me get some clothes on." I said as I found a hoodie and some sweats." Ok lets go."

I hoped on Jacobs back and he jumped out the window. Within seconds of impact with the ground we were flying through the forest. I loved going on Jacobs back through the forest. I was just starting to enjoy the ride when we slowed to a stop. We were at a little cave on the beach.

Jacob slid me gently off his back and we walked hand in hand until we came to a place in the cave where the walls glittered like diamonds.

"Look up." Jacob said from behind me.

It was amazing. There was a hole in the top of the cave and through the hole could see the full moon and the millions of stars. Jake and I sat down in the sand and leaned against one of the walls.I put my head on his chest and we gazed up at the stars.

"I wanted to make up for what I said earlier. I just wanted to let you know I was ready not freak you out. I love you Bella and I will do anything for you. If you want to wait then I'll wait for you. Don't stress out about it." I squirmed. Now was the perfect time to ask him.

"Jake?"

"Yeah."

"Uhhh… are you… have you ever…" my face was glowing red.

"You want to know if I'm a virgin." He said.

"Well… yeah."

"Yes I'm a virgin. Are you?"

"Yes." We both breathed a sigh of relief and continued to look up at the stars. In that moment with Jacob's arms around me in a cave hidden from the world I felt happiness. Not fake happiness like the kind you get when you go to Disneyland for the first time, but true, pure happiness. I knew that I was ready. I was ready for this. I wanted Jacob to b mine forever. I turned to him and kissed him.

It caught him off guard but he didn't pull back. I kissed him with a ferocity that I didn't know I possessed. I pushed my body against his and tangled my hands in his hair biting and nipping on his lips. Then I snuck a hand down his chest until I reached his belt buckle. Jacob pulled back and looked at me his eyes burning.

"Bella are you sure. You don't have to baby,"

"I'm sure I just have one question."

"What?"

"Do you have protection."

He smirked and pulled out a condom from his pants pocket. I gave him a quizzical look.

"My dad told me to carry protection when I told him where I was taking you. He said this is where it happened for him and mom as well so…"

"Oh." I blushed and kissed him again. I undid his belt buckle and he brought my shirt up over my head. I was definitely ready.
