Chapter 20
Alice's pov
As much as I hated what they were doing to Vanessa, I loved parties. So I suppose I could deal. Vanessa is really nice, and basically my best friend and I saw she was confused. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't see who she was with. I can't see werewolves, but it wasn't like that. It was weird. I had everyone working very hard. I was shopping for decorations, Esme was ordering a cake, I knew she would go overboard, though. Rosalie was pouting in a corner saying how she didn't think it was a good idea. Emmett was moving furniture around. And Jasper and Edward were out hunting. Carlisle was still at the hospital. This party was gong to be so much fun!
Vanessa's pov
I arrived at Jacob's house at ten. I knocked on the door and he answered. He smiled and pulled me inside. "Hi, Nessa." I smiled and said,"Hi, Jake." He sat on the couch and yanked me in his lap. I was really glad he wasn't being gentle. I smiled and looked him deep in the eyes and smiled. He smiled back and brushed the hair out of my eyes. When he did that I thought for a brief moments are lips might meet. No such luck. What is he so afraid of? I was going to take matters into my own hands. That's why I was here, right? Right. I gestured for him to come down a little lower. Curse him for being so tall! I cupped his face and slowly went for his lips. He did't move a muscle, I was kind of expecting for him to take over. Again, no such luck. I was two feet away from his lips and he said,"Your birthday's coming up. What do ya wanna do?" I may strangle him or murder him severely. I was about to kiss him and he starts talking about my birthday? Really? Who in their right mind does that? I said something I hadn't expected to. I said," Will you just shut up and kiss me already?" He looked shocked and smiled. He grabbed my chin and pulled my face toward his. Our lips were exactly one inch apart and he pressed his lips to mine. He wasn't kind or gentle about it. He pushed them up against mine and started kissing me passionately and fiercely. He pulled my ponytail out and played with my hair as we kissed. I raised my hands and tangled his hair in my fingers. I felt him smiling against my lips. His tongue was licking my lips, waiting for an entrance. I opened my lips slightly and his tongue pressed the roof of my mouth. I took my legs and wrapped them around his waist. He stopped suddenly and I was glad. I could barely breathe, not that I minded. He held me close to his chest. "So, about your birthday?" I smiled and said,"We could do that." He smiled and nodded. "It is you're birthday." I laughed and said, "Ya, it is." He laughed and said,"I'm sorry for not doing that sooner." I smiled and said,"S'OK. You should be apologizing for not taking my hints." He laughed adn said,"OK, your right. I'm sorry for being idiotic." I laughed and said,"You're forgiven. Ya know, for the first time I'm excited bout my birthday." He smiled and nodded. Finally got my kiss...
