My eye's snapped open when the annoying high pitched ringing began from my digital alarm clock. I gave a sigh, reaching over with my numb hand and pressed the 'Off' button on the top. Rolling back over I covered my head with the pillow and tried to get back to sleep. I hadn't left the house for the past two days and I didn't feel like starting now. I had been too afraid to call Jacob and explain to him that what had happened between me and him was a mistake and had to stay between just us. I had dodged all of Edward's calls, he had rung 8 times asking if I was OK but Charlie had told him I was feeling ill and wanted to be left alone. I knew Charlie just wanted to kill Edward but I had made him swear that he wouldn't do anything.

I closed my eyes but the feeling of sleep had vanished and now I felt depressed. Pulling my pillow off of my head I pushed myself up and groaned. My hair was in a loose ponytail and fell over one of my shoulders as I gazed to my clock. It read '8:02'. I pulled my knees up so they rested against my chest and sat back so my back was pressed against my headboard. I was now bored, nothing to do at all. I couldn't go see Jake, for obvious reasons and I couldn't go see Edward because of Mia. Usually at a time like this I would of called Alice and asked her if she wanted to hang out but she was busy, she was always busy with Mia. Lately all of the Cullen's had been preoccupied with Mia, it was either Mia had to do this, or Mia couldn't do this encase the baby was hurt.

I gave a giggle as I finished thinking about it, I was jealous of her. She had taken everything that I had wanted, my family, my love. She was having his child and I hadn't even slept with him yet. The thought of her having it all always made me bubble up inside to the point where I thought I was going to explode. I had told Edward I would call but every time I went to dial his mobile number my hands froze up on the buttons and I decided against calling him.I guess I was scared mostly, scared for him finally realizing that Mia was having his child so he should be with her, he would marry her and they would be happy. I looked down at my ring less finger, only 2 months previous had it held the mostly gorgeous ring ever, my ring but now that ring was with Edward and soon to be on Mia's finger.

I was bought out of my thoughts by a crashing noise downstairs, my head snapped up and I feared the worst. Looking back at the clock I became scared, Charlie would of left already for work so what had made that noise. Slipping out from my bed I grabbed the closest thing I could which represented a weapon. It however was my hair dryer. Walking over to my closed door I peeled it open slowly so it didn't make a noise and slipped out onto the empty landing. As I was making my way down the stairs I realized something, what was I doing? I was the mostly clumsiest girl ever, holding a hair dryer and on my way to comfort a stranger in my house, oh yes I was very smart. But I couldn't turn back now, I came to the bottom of the steps and then I saw it. A large shadow was projected from the kitchen onto the floor. The person was large, I began to shake with worry. It couldn't be Charlie, too big for Charlie. I raised the hair dryer and was ready to strike, closer now to the door. I would run in and hit the person so hard they would think twice on breaking into my house. But then I smelt something, was that bacon, they were cooking. I was very confused, but I would strike them down for stealing bacon. I was ready, I ran full pelt into the kitchen raising the hair dryer and closed my eyes, bring it down but I felt a very warm hand grasp my wrist and stop the impact.

"Bella?", a masculine voice sounded a little shocked and scared. My eye's snapped open and there stood Jacob wearing Charlie's blue and white pinny around his waist cooking bacon.

"Jake?", I said back a little confused. "What are you doing here?", I asked a little shocked on how he had gotten here and why he was cooking.

"Well, Charlie said you seemed down so I decided to come cook you breakfast to cheer you up", he said with a smile. "Now, what about the hair dryer?", he asked. My eyes left his and traveled to my purple hair dryer which was clasped in my hand, his darkened skin contrasted with mine as his hand was wrapped around my wrist. He released it and turned back to the bacon. I sighed and layed the hair dryer on the side before sitting at the table. I felt awkward now, I didn't wish to see Jake for a few more days, not until I had gotten my head around what had happened between us on La Push beach. Jake was still cooking and humming. Soon he layed a large plate of breakfast in front of me before taking his seat opposite with his extra large dose of bacon and eggs. On my plate was bacon, scrambled eggs, beans and toast. I remember when I used to hate eating meat but lately I didn't care and decided to just eat it. Digging in I kept my eyes down, I didn't want to catch his eyes again.

"So... how are you?", his voice asked and I sighed. I looked up after swallowing a mouthful of egg and took a sip from my glass of orange juice. I gave a simple nod, it was better than me trying to say anything. He gave a nod back, hopefully he wouldn't push it and finish his breakfast and then leave. "Look Bella, about the other day, I wanted to say that I am sorry that I tried to force you into anything but I am not sorry that we did kiss, it was amazing", he said. A slight blush had crept up onto my cheeks and I nodded. "Are you going to say anything?", he asked. Great now I had to say something.

"Listen Jake..." good start Bella. "I just felt a little upset and the kiss was well a mistake", I said. I didn't look him in the eyes, only keeping my head down before shoveling another mouthful of breakfast into me.

"I know", his voice came but it sounded as if he wanted me to say that I loved him or something. Guilt filled me up again, I decided that he deserved my eye contact at least. Raising my head I looked at him, he had already been looking at me so our eye met instantly. I gave him a smile and then went back to my breakfast. 10 minutes later I had finished and was now washing up, Jake stood next to me taking the plates and cups and drying them as we went. Soon everything looked clean and tidy and we had nothing to do but communicate with each other to fill the awkward silence.

I turned to look at Jake but I didn't realized the proximity between us. I was so close to him that when I turned I fell a little but I was already backed up against the cabinet that I didn't go far. His hand came up and grabbed my around the waist before I could do any harm to my back from the side. Now he pulled me up so we were touching, our chests pressed together, the heat radiating off of him and onto me made me shudder. He face was bent looking into my eyes and I felt almost intoxicated from his breath on my face.

"Jake... we should", but I was cut off by his scorching lips on mine. I was shocked at first by the hard contact of his lips but then they softened and his arm pulled me closer, almost like he wanted us to be one. I gave a moan which was a big mistake. It spurred him on as he hooked his hand on the back of my thigh and lifted me up so I was off the ground. It happened so quickly like a reflex. My legs wrapped themselves around his waist as my arms did the same with his neck. I was then kissing him back, I was kissing Jake. His body began to move as I felt his one arm reach around and rest him on the counter so he had something to lean on, then he began to move him hips against mine. I felt hot all over. I couldn't stop my hips going along with his, it was all to much I didn't know if I could stop myself this time but then I heard Jake growl. Confusion covered my face as Jake pulled back and turned to face the kitchen entrance. Then what he said almost caused me to die.

"What are you staring at bloodsucker?", Jake's voice rang through my head. I froze and stopped moving my hips. Oh god, please say no. Please tell me it is Alice or someone else, don't be him. I pulled my head back and then I saw him, Edward. He was standing in the kitchen doorway, his face looked like he was in pain. His eyes were staring into Jacob's and then they moved to mine. I couldn't do it. I looked down ashamed of how I looked, I automatically unwrapped my legs from around Jake's waist and pushed him back so my feet landed on the ground. I knew my face was red and my legs were weak a little. I looked at Edward and then I noticed that he had some roses in his hands wrapped up. I was shocked, he had bought my flowers and had caught me in the arms of his family's worst enemy. My eyes closed and I felt the tears. I didn't know what would happen, would Edward kill Jake? I felt Jake behind me, he wrapped an arm around my waist but I shook it off. Edward was looking at the floor, I knew that if he could he would be crying at this moment, his heart would of failed. The flowers gave a thud and fell to the floor, then in a second he was gone.

"No", I screamed. I pushed myself forward and out of the house, hearing only the sound of the screeching tires. I didn't even see the Volvo but I could hear the sound of the engine as Edward pushed it to the max to get away from me. I had done it, he must of thought I was making out with Jacob to get back at him. I fell to my knees on the front porch, I only realized then that I was still in my tank top and grey long baggy trousers. I didn't care, I knew I had to explain this to Edward. Jumping up and running back into the house I went straight for the stairs, surprisingly not slipping up I grabbed a jacket and some shoes. Soon I was dressed like a crazy person but I didn't care, grabbing my keys I ran down the stairs and didn't slip once. Jake stood in the doorway, his arms crossed and his face had one emotion, anger.

"Bella, don't go", he said through gritted teeth. I shook my head and walked straight out the door, heading my truck I kicked it into life and backed out of the driveway. I needed to get to the Cullen's house and explain this to him. As I drove so much was rushing through my head, how was he feeling, what was he thinking? Tears streamed down my face but I didn't slow down, the speed meter was hitting it fullest but I wasn't slowing at all. I needed to see him, I needed to make this right.
