Sunday arrived and I found myself in front of the Cullen's house. Jacob decided to come to the party they organized for us. I was glad because I didn't have to face them alone but at the same I feel anxious because I don't know how he's going to react when he sees them. We talked about it and he has to be calm so he won't phase and start that whole cycle again. It took him several years to be able to NOT phase so he can age with me. I felt guilty for making him decide this but he said it was worth it if it meant being with me and now that we have William he says it was the best decision he has ever made.
Now, the Cullen's house, we're in front of the beautiful house and I feel as if my legs weigh a ton.
"Ugh, I can smell them from here. They stink, its sickly sweet, too sweet. Yuck," Jacob said with a disgust look in his face.
"Jacob, I want you to abstain yourself from saying things like that in front of William. He's a really smart baby, you know that; really perceptive like his mama," I said smugly.
"Yea that's true. Ok then let's get this show on the road so we can finally go home and get rid of…" he stopped as soon as he saw the scowl on my face. "All right, sorry, let's go then," he mumbled.
We were greeted by Carlisle and Esme and then they introduced the rest to Jacob; he didn't know them. He was being strangely polite, never leaving my side and held me around my waist…. I wonder what he's trying to do or going to try to do…. Until I saw Edward's face and realized he had a pained expression. I turned to Jacob and he was smiling smugly and I scowled at him to stop, and so he did.
"Jacob, what did I just say?" I asked him.
"I didn't say anything Bella. I can't help it if I'm thinking certain things and he decides to listen in. He can get out of my head if he wants to." He told me with a smile, but it wasn't a good natured smile, it was a devilish smile, oh god I think I have an idea what he's showing him.
"I can't turn in off mu-, Jacob; you're screaming and showing me…." Edward said with a pained and hurt expression in his face.
"That also includes thoughts in this situation and don't forget that Jasper can also feel your emotions, so whatever you're thinking is affecting him as well." We all turned to see Jasper and saw he was uncomfortable, but didn't say anything.
"You know what, this was a bad idea, let's go." I said heading to the front door.
"I'm sorry Bella, I didn't think, let's just do what we came for, I know you want to." He leaned and kissed the top of my head. I realized everybody was pretending to have their own conversations, well, except Edward of course.
"Fine." I told him while I started to walk to the living room to place William down, he was heavy.
"Bella, I took the liberty of getting him a couple of things he could play with while being here." Rosalie let me know with a big smile on her face, she was genuinely happy (this brought me joy) and directed me to a section in the living room that looked like a mini-playhouse!
"Rosalie, what is all this, I can't believe you did this. You didn't have to, you know. But I want to thank you," I smiled at her, leaned into her and kissed her cheek. She was surprised by this but she kept smiling. She got more surprised when I handed her William. "Here, well, if you want you can play with him for awhile."
All of a sudden I heard growls and hisses all over the house when I turned and saw Edward stand between Rosalie, William and myself, protecting us from Jacob.
"What's wrong? What's going on?" I demanded someone to answer me.
"Jacob was going to lunge at Rosalie." Edward said through his teeth.
"Damn it, Edward! Jacob can't hurt her because she has William in her arms. Jacob, what the hell! Rosalie LOVES William! She wants to play and take care of him! You know I don't trust William with anybody because I'm really overprotective when regarding him." I practically shouted to both of them.
"I'm sorry Bella, I think it's just best I leave because I am in the verge of phasing and I don't want to." He said through gritted teeth.
"Fine, sure, let's do whatever you want! I asked you for one favor Jacob, one damn favor. When do I ask you to do something for me? Tell me, when do I, and the time I do you just ruin it? I don't give a rat's ass whether you are 'mortal' enemies!" I turned to everybody at the last statement, "When you have me and/or William as company, you all better behave your asses because if you don't I swear to god I'm just going to leave without saying anything taking William with me!" I was breathing heavily and felt my heart pounding at a 100 beats a second, flushed in the face of anger.
I saw everybody staring at me in shock, admiration, amusement, disbelief.
"Damn sister! You told those dumb asses!" Emmet shouted at the top of his lungs laughing; I just smiled a weak smile.
"I'm sorry Rosalie, I'm grateful you thought of William, maybe another day. Let's go Jacob." I smiled happily and apologetically at Rosalie but spat at Jacob.
"Bella, I'm…" I cut him off. "I don't care Jacob. I don't care right now. Don't you talk to me right now! Let's go! Don't let me say it again!" I demanded and he obliged.
"Everybody, I am extremely sorry and I want to thank you for everything that you've done for me today. I hope to see you after my time off when I come back…" as I walked out the door I thought of something and turned to face them ". You know what; I know what to do to make it up to you guys. Alice, I give you free reign, I might regret it later, but I will let you plan a welcome back party when we're back ok. Just for me and William because Jacob can't seem to control himself. You can rent jumpers and swings and all that stuff that kids his age like to do. You don't mind do you? You don't think is too short notice?" I asked her with a raised eyebrow. I got her so good she's speechless! WOW! I made Alice speechless twice in my lifetime.
"That's it, you're coming here more often Bella, you made Alice speechless, look at her!" Jasper, not Emmet, said this to me. We were all looking at Alice with her eyes almost popping out of her eye sockets with her mouth open, forming the biggest smile her face could produce when I saw myself flying in circles.
"Alice, I'm going to throw up on you!" I screamed with her laughing.
"You will have the best welcome back party in your lifetime! Esme, let's plan!" she took Esme's hand and left.
"All right everybody. Good bye." I walked out and got into the car and went home, dreading what was coming next.
