Sooo here is chapter 14 :) Enjoy.
Chapter 14
It's been a bit more than a week since that day in the classroom. What happened that day with Freddie I still don't understand. I still trust him with my life and Jake still thinks he is dangerous. But even Jake can't help but like him.
It's Saturday and Freddie is coming over. I'm not sure what we are going to do yet. He will probably have some ideas anyway. Jake's not here. He never seems to be here just before Freddie turns up. I know we haven't known him that long but you would have thought Jake would be used to him by now. He's not, I mean he hasn't got a problem with him. He is just convinced there is something strange going on with him. I think before Freddie turns up Jake goes out to kind of like prepare himself for Freddie's arrival. What else would he be doing?
I never ask Jake where he goes and he never brings it up so I'm guessing he doesn't want to talk about it. Then a few things clicked in my head. Is he cheating on me. It would make sense I mean, he never tells me where he is going. Sometimes he is gone for hours. And Freddie is the perfect excuse for him to go out, because we all know he has a problem with him.
I shook my head to clear it. No, Jake would never cheat on me. I'm his imprint, he could never do that to me. He could never do it to himself. He could never risk losing me, it would hurt him too much. But I still can't help but wonder…
"Ness, he isn't cheating on you. You know he could never do that." My dad interrupted my thoughts. He is so nosey. I mean I know it's not his fault he can read minds. But I know for sure that he can choose who's mind to be in. So why is he always in mine?! I saw him smirk.
"Then where is he?" I asked him, irritated.
"He doesn't want you to know." I was going to interrupt him but he carried on. "Look, he isn't cheating on you. He has just gone to a place where he can think clearly without all of us interrupting him. He doesn't want you to come and find him because he just wants to be alone for a few minutes a day. You haven't done anything to upset him, he still loves you. He just likes private time every now and then."
I nodded. Of course Jake still loves me. It was stupid of me to get so paranoid about something like this. Jake can have alone time whenever he wants. I shouldn't just jump to conclusions. Just as I was thinking that Jake came through the door. I ran up to him and nearly knocked him over.
"Hey, you." He chuckled. "Miss me much?"
"More than you will ever know." We stood there just holding each other for a while. I sighed in contentment. "Freddie will be here in a minute." I reminded him. I felt him tense, sigh and then let me go. Great, well done Ness, way to ruin the moment.
Just then there was a knock at the door. That's the problem with vampires; you don't know they are approaching unless they drive or use something that's very noisy to get to their destination. I mean I can hear well, better than any human. But not as well as a full vampire, so it's still easy for them to sneak up on me. Unless they are being unusually noisy, which is usual for Emmett. The vampire that is most likely to sneak up on me, and the one that tries to the most.
I went to open the door. "Hey, Freddie." I said with a smile on my face. He was gorgeous it was true. But I didn't feel anything for him. I wonder if Jake was just so against him because he thought I would choose Freddie over him. No, that can't be it. Jake knows how much I love him.
"Hey, Ness. What do you want to do today?" He asked me. Hmm, good question.
"I have no idea. I was hoping you would have an idea."
"Actually I was hoping I could talk to Jacob." What? Is he mad?
"Are you sure that's a good idea. I mean, well it's not that he doesn't like you…it's just…umm…" I couldn't find the right way to say it without sounding rude.
"It's okay, I know what you mean. But I still want to talk to him." I nodded. What else could I do? It's not like it was my choice whether Jake spoke to him or not.
But I had a bad feeling about this. Normally I would be happy if Freddie actually wanted to talk to Jake. Or even if Jake wanted to talk to Freddie. But this time I had this feeling in the pit of my stomach that told me not to let Jake go. Jake started walking towards the door with Freddie. I grabbed Jake's arm.
"Please, Jake. Just this once, don't go. I know I'm always asking you to get on with Freddie. But I have a bad feeling about this. Please." I was almost on my knees begging him not to leave.
"Ness, what's the worst that could happen?" Jake asked. He kissed my forehead then opened the door.
"Yeah Ness, he will be fine. Don't you trust me?" Freddie asked. I nodded. Of course I trust Freddie. It seemed like it was impossible not to.
As I watched them leave the house, I couldn't help but panic. What if something happened to Jake? I would never forgive myself for letting him go. No. I was being ridiculous what's the worst that could happen?
But no matter how much I thought that to myself, the feeling would never leave me.
