Hi again! I really like writing, and I'd rather not start a new story before I finish this one, because then I would probably slowly drop this story, so... here's the second chapter on the same day as the first!
Chapter 2: My World
I closed my streaming eyes as he ran along the trail back to my truck. I tried to curl my arms surreptitiously around the aching hole in my chest.
Of course Jake noticed- nothing seems to escape him about me.
"What's wrong?" he slowed down, relieving a little of my pain by that simple act. I sighed a little and snuggled closer to take in his warmth.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed with understanding.
"My running reminds you of... him... doesn't it?" he asked, and I nodded. Sometimes it scared me how perceptive of me Jake was.
His eyes flashed with something that looked like pity, but it was gone before I could be sure.
"Come on, Bells, let's get you home." he said quietly, putting me down. I looked around and realized that we were next to my car. He had just run a walk that took me almost an hour in ten minutes. I huffed at that as he chuckled, and got in my truck's passenger side. He raised his eyebrows.
"I'm shaking too much at the moment to be operating machinery."
He laughed, "You sound like one of those drug commercials." Then he got into the driver's seat.
As he drove me to my house, something clicked.
The hole in my chest was almost gone at this point.
I glanced at Jacob, and saw that he was glancing at me, too. He smiled and I smiled back.
Jacob Black was my world now.
AN: This is a really, really short chapter. I know. I'm sorry. But I loved this chapter ending, so I couldn't change it.
Review, and I will be touched. Don't, and I will be crushed. (Hey, that rhymed... sort of.)
When I am crushed, all I really do is listen to Avril Lavigne's 'My Happy Ending' or Pink's 'Nobody Knows', and I won't update for another day or so.
When I am touched, I will listen to Evenenesce's 'Everybody's Fool' and Avril Lavigne's 'I'm With You', and I will update as I am listening.
Basically, reviewing helps me be encouraged to update sooner. But I will get the next one out at least by tomorrow no matter what- it just might be late.
