Chapter 10- The Perfect Date

I smiled shyly to myself as Jake came to my house to pick me up. When I opened the door, he grinned at my outfit.

"I didn't know we were supposed to wear pretty skirts."

I blushed at the compliment and ushered him inside. He hugged Mom and punched Dad in the shoulder.

I felt a little left out. I realized that he had known them a lot longer than I had.

Then Mom muttered something that only my parents and Jacob could hear and he laughed.

I looked at Dad pointedly but he just shook his head and gave me a crooked grin.

I sighed and practically pushed Jacob out the door. We started to walk to the movie theater, since neither of us needed a car and we had time before it started.

After a while of giggling about some "dumb blonde" jokes Jake had made up for Rosalie, I stopped abruptly, realizing something. I didn't really want to go to the movies.

Once Jacob noticed I had stopped, he jogged back to where I stood.

"What's wrong?"

"Why don't we just skip the movie and go get something to eat?" I asked.

His face seemed to get a little disappointed.

"Ness, I would hunt, but you wouldn't want to ruin your nice skirt…"

"No," I laughed, "I mean at some restaurant or something. I want to talk. I'm not very hungry anyway."

"Oh," He smiled, looking a tad relieved, "Okay, sure."

So, we went to this random Chinese restaurant in Forks and sat at a table in the back.

I ordered water just to be nice and Jake ordered Broccoli and Beef with a Coke. For a little while, we just stared at each other, not believing this could be happening.

A couple days ago I couldn't even imagine thinking about love between Jacob and me, but here we were, on a date.

The waitress brought Jacob's food, but we didn't really seem to notice it. Only each other.

Then, we just started talking. Like we were synchronized. Just began a conversation.

We discussed good hunting strategies, beautiful places to hike, anything that came to our minds. We could say almost everything to each other.

When we finally got a chance to breath, I noticed he hadn't even touched his food.

"Aw, Jake, don't let me keep you from eating your food," I said, gesturing to his full platter of food.

"I'm good," he replied and we resumed to our conversation. Finally, I got to Quil and Claire.

"Hey Jake," he looked into my eyes in anticipation of my question and I blushed. Sometimes, he could just so cute! Why hadn't I seen it before?

"I have a question about Claire and Quil."

"Uh huh…" Jake said suspiciously, urging me to get on with it.

"Why do they hang out together all the time?" I asked innocently, even though I knew the answer. I just needed to hear it from him.

He took deep breath and sighed. "It's a long story…"

"Well, I got time." I replied and motioned to him to tell the long story.

So, he continued to tell me about imprinting and how it's a werewolf thing.

I listened attentively, learning many knew things that my parents didn't care to tell me about. Which was understandable, I guess.

When he finished I clarified, "So Quil imprinted on Claire? But she's only 10 years old!"

"He's not like that! Not yet! He will be like the best big brother any one could ever have until she gets to be his age and then he can convert that love to something different. Did you know that he imprinted on her when she was only two?"

"Wow," I breathed. That's intense. Was I that age when he imprinted on me? That's so weird to think about!

Then, I looked at the time. 10:00 o'clock! The restaurant was closing.

"We better go, Jake," I said, asking for the check. He graciously paid and then we got up to leave.

"I'll walk you home," Jake said, taking my hand as we left the restaurant and into the woods behind my house.

We walked home slowly, enjoying the moment, not saying a word. Just appreciating each other's presence.

When we got to the front door, we stopped and turned towards each other.

He grinned at me and said, "Bye, Ness."

Before I could get out my good-byes in, he leaned down and gave me a peck on the lips. My eyes widened a little, but then I melted.

It was only for about 2 seconds, but it felt like millennia before it ended. I blushed and grinned up at him.

"Good night, Jacob." I watched him vanish into the darkness before opening the door and walked inside, floating on air.

I found my parents in their room, reading in bed. Mom looked up from Wuthering Heights and asked, "How did it go?"

She should have deduced by the happy look on my face.

"Perfect," I grinned, bouncing down the hallway and into my room.

When I got to my bedroom, I touched my lips softly, acknowledging the fact that they had touched Jacob's.

I giggled and fell back on my bed with a huge smile on my face.
