Bella and Jacob leaped apart as Edward walked into the kitchen.
"Hey sweetie" he cooed walking to Bella and kissing her full on the mouth.
Jacob watched, a hot bubbling feeling at the pit of his stomach, which, he knew was jealousy, began to rear its head and he turned away from the couple.
"Edward, hi." She said awkwardly trying to forget the close encounter with Jacob just moments before, which had left her hot and flustered.
"Who's this?" he said looking at Jacob who was pretending to measure the wall.
"That's… That's Jacob, the handyman we hired. Uhmm Jacob this… this is Edward my… my boyfriend." She said looking down.
Edward held out his hand to Jacob, which Jacob hesitated to take but eventually did. "Hi nice to meet you" Edward said giving Jacob a once over, obviously not liking the fact that he was a good looking man in the same house as his Bella.
"Yeah ditto" Jacob said seeing the look Edward was giving him and disliking him straight away.
"Well we better get going Bella if you want me to drop you at work." Edward said to her.
"Okay, I'm ready. Um Jacob my dad is home upstairs but he probably wont be down for a while, but if you need anything he's there. She smiled at him, as edward started toward the door. "I'll… uhm... I'll see you later." And left with Edward.
Bella rested her head against the car window, letting the cold glass cool her down from the episode with Jacob, which she was still shaken up about.
"So how long is this… Jacob bloke hanging around then?" Edward said suddenly, his eyes cold.
"Huh…" Bella said still lost in her thoughts about Jacob. "Oh, I don't know, a couple of weeks I guess."
His eyes became even colder. "Why so long ey?" he said sharply.
Bella looked up at him surprised… "I don't know, it's a old house… a lot to fix," she said simply.
"Yeah well… he better not try anything with you." He stated roughly.
"What?" She scoffed at him… "You cannot be serious!" She knew Edward was a jealous guy at heart but this was crazy.
He turned his glare to her, "you bet I'm serious! A strange man in your house and all."
"Gosh Edward, ill be fine. Lighten up. Jacob's a good guy. He would never try anything." Although Bella wished he would have today she imagined, surprising herself and blushing at the thought.
"Yeah well make sure he doesn't, or he can answer to me." Trying to sound tough.
Bella just looked at him frowning as they pulled up outside to Tric and she got out without a goodbye.
He didn't seem to care though as he sped off, with loud music roaring.
Bella sighed as she walked unlocked Tric and started her day of work. Promising herself that a certain handyman wouldn't enter her mind.
