Chapter 9

Why did I always get myself into situations like these? It seemed that no matter what I did, it always ended awkwardly. Not to mention I feel really angry at Dylan right now.

Here we all are standing out in the pouring rain, thank god my pajamas were red or they might have been see through.

Dylan's back was facing me, while my back was facing my wide open hall door.

Jakes glare at Dylan was definitely life threatening, if looks could kill.

"Eva get in inside, you'll catch a cold," Jake told me through gritted teeth, still glaring at Dylan.

I obeyed without a second thought and made my way inside, closing the door behind me quietly.

I rushed into the living room and peeped through the window at my two favorite men.

Jake was now only inches away from Dylan, glaring down at him. He was speaking to him but of course I couldn't hear anything they were saying.

It was really obvious how much bigger Jake was compared to Dylan when they were face to face and I just hoped this wouldn't end badly.

Before I knew it, Dylan was making his way over to his car, shoulders slumped, looking defeated and Jake was making his way towards my hall door, which opened as I drew the curtain back.

He stepped into my living room drenched but looking unbelievably sexy.

The rain water glistened off of his muscular chest, his hair dripping wet and his jean cut offs soaked.

I stood there staring at him as he stood at the doorway, he cocked an eyebrow, "What?,".

I blushed and shook my head, "Nothing,".

He crossed his arms over his broad chest, "Nothing? Is that what I saw you and that… boy doing? Was that also nothing?," he asked angrily.

I stared at him speechless. Did he really think that I would kiss Dylan when I loved him? I've got to say that really hurt.

"No actually, that wasn't nothing, that was something I couldn't even stop and you know what Jake? I thought you imprinted on me and loved me but maybe your wrong because obviously you don't trust me," I told him, my voice strained and my feelings hurt.

"No Eva, don't you ever say that," he said, his anger fading.

I turned around and ran up to my bedroom. I didn't want to hear anything he had to say right now. He insults me then apologizes, what kind of person is he?

I slammed my bedroom door shut and threw myself onto my bed, burying my face into my pillow and sobbed.

I remembered when Jake and I used to be best friends. We were always happy and up for a lot of fun. If someone had told us that Jake was going to turn into a wolf we would've laughed and called them crazy.

I also remembered the first times I had seen Jake before I moved to La Push.

I thought he was wonderful, so beautiful and his happy personality shone through him.

I tried to hide my feelings from him which I did successfully but deep down I always wanted him to be mine. I wanted to be his and be loved by him but I thought that that would never happen until now.

I cannot express how happy I am to finally be his and him to be mine but all this werewolf stuff including imprinting can be a little irritating because firstly I never see him that much, he's always patrolling and secondly, if a guy other than him gets a little too close to me he explodes.

No I'm not saying I like when a guy gets too close to me because I don't. I only want Jake but when guys like Dylan kiss me, I don't even get the chance to explain to him that I don't feel the same way because Jake suddenly appears and shouts them down, shaking with anger and I have to calm him down before he explodes into a wolf.

I'm sure Dylan and Quil hate me right now and of course I can't do anything about it. To tell you the truth, I don't want to speak to Dylan right now anyway.

I was brought back from my thoughts when I heard soft knocking on my bedroom door, "Eva? Eva please don't cry, can I come in?," Jake asked softly against my door.

I didn't answer him, I just kept crying.

When you love someone so much and they tell you they feel the same, it hurts so very much when they doubt you.

I heard my bedroom door open slowly and soft footsteps make their way to my bed.

My bed shook a little as Jake sat on the side of my bed and started stroking my hair with his large hand.

"Eva," he whispered.

"Go away," I told him through sobs.

"Eva I'm sorry, I love you so much baby, I'm so sorry I hurt you," he said, he sounded like he was begging for my forgiveness.

I realized that that was the first time he ever called me 'baby' and I couldn't help but feel a little flattered but I wasn't giving in yet, I was still hurt.

I buried my face into my pillow a little deeper and choked out the last of my sobs.

The bed shook a little more and I realized Jake was now lying beside me, his arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me to him.

"I'm so sorry baby, please don't cry," he begged as I tried to pull away from him.

"Jake j-just leave, y-you don't l-love me," I stuttered, my face turned away from his.

"No Eva, I love you so much it hurts, I don't ever want you to think that,".

"How… am I… s-supposed to b-believe you?," I choked out.

I felt his hand move from my waist up to the back of my neck and he started rubbing his thumb in circles over the most sensitive spots there.

His stomach pressed against my side and I felt his hot breath hovering over my ear, "I'll show you," he whispered.

My knees started to get weak and a lot of thoughts crossed my mind.

If he was going to make love to me was I ready? No, I don't think so.

But I wasn't sure what exactly he meant by 'I'll show you', so I decided to wait until it became too much.

I felt his hot breath tickling my skin as it moved from over my ear to the side of my neck.

He pushed some of my hair away from my neck to give him better access to it and my heart was starting to beat erratically.

Then I felt it. His soft warm lips pressed against my neck.

My breath was caught in my throat and my heart was thumping so hard I thought it was going to jump out of my chest.

He started trailing kisses up and down my neck and I felt him smile against my neck, noticing how my heart was beating. Damn werewolf hearing.

He continued kissing me there for a while. They were soft sweet kisses and I soon forgot why the hell I was in my bed until he stopped and turned me around on my back.

He was hovering over me, keeping his weight off of me with his forearms which were placed on each side of me head.

His eyes were full of love and devotion, "Are you still mad at me?," he whispered.

I was speechless because here was the man of my dreams hovering over me with all the love in the world in his eyes asking me if I was mad at him. How could I be when we were both in love with each other? I even forgot why I was mad at him in the first place.

I shook my head because I couldn't find any words to speak.

He smiled, a look of relief came across his face and he bent down to peck me on the lips.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.

I didn't want him to leave me, I wanted him in my arms forever and if I couldn't have that then I wanted as much of him as I could get a hold of.

We were kissing passionately now and he wasn't holding his weight off of me.

Our bodies were pressed against each other. My hands were roaming up and down his muscular back, his muscles rippling beneath my touch and his breathing getting heavier.

He had one of his hands in my hair, pulling my face closer to his and the other was feeling its way up and down my side.

"I love you Eva," he told me huskily as his lips moved down to my neck, allowing me to catch my breath.

"I… love… you too," I breathed as his teeth grazed my neck, catching me off guard but I loved it.

As I continued to feel up and down his back I remembered that Jake was drenched from the rain and wondered if my bed was soaked from his jean cut offs but forgot about it instantly the minute his lips latched onto mine again.

As the minutes passed and Jake eventually rolled off of my body, his chest heaving as he caught his breath, I instantly missed contact with his body and didn't want him to leave.

"Jake?,"

His eyes met mine and he smiled, propping himself up on his elbow, "Yeah,".

I lay on my side, "I don't want you to go, I want you to stay here with me,".

His expression turned thoughtful and he reached out to cup my cheek in his hand, "Baby I'll do whatever you want but I've got patrols tonight with Jared,".

I sighed, "Okay… I understand, just be careful, I'm afraid for you,".

He rubbed his thumb in circles over my cheek and grinned, "We're wolves Eva, there's nothing to be afraid of,".

I rolled my eyes, "Well I can't help but worry about you, you're all I ever think about, I love you,".

He smiled and kissed me on the cheek, "I love you too and I appreciate you caring about me but I don't want you worrying about me baby, I'll be fine,".

"Okay okay, I hope you're right," I told him, defeated.

Just then we heard a howl and Jake leaned over to kiss me once again on the cheek, "Leave your window open, I'll be back later," he whispered and jumped off of my bed.

My jaw dropped when he mentioned 'window' and I was speechless.

I watched him make his way over to my window and jump out.

That was so dangerous. What if he injured himself doing that?

I jumped up and ran to my window to make sure but there was nothing to see. He was gone and as far as I know unharmed. He was a wolf after all, I just have to trust him.

I walked back over to my bed and flopped back down on it.

Tomorrow it was Monday and I was back to school again but thinking of Jake made it seem a little bit better because I wouldn't be alone.

Oh and I wonder how Hannah and Jennifer will react to me and Jake being together.

Yeah tomorrow was going to be quite interesting.

I started wondering whether the pack were going to have a bonfire on Friday and then maybe on Saturday me and Jake could… Oh no, I was going to my grandmas on Saturday for TWO WEEKS!

I pushed that thought out of my head and eventually drifted off to sleep.

~*~

I awoke to the cool breeze hitting off of my skin from the open window at seven in the morning and groaned.

I shifted around in my bed and realized that Jake hadn't come back to me last night.

That's when all the worst scenarios possible crossed my mind.

What if he's injured really badly? What if he… no! I won't go there.

I still had two more hours before school started and I started feeling nauseous. The thought of anything happening to Jake just broke my heart.

I sat up in my bed and wrapped my arms around my legs and started sobbing.

I didn't know how much time passed until I heard my alarm go off and knew I had to leave for school.

As my mom dropped me off at La Push High, I had a little ounce of hope in me that maybe Jake was okay and that he might be waiting for me at my locker.

No such luck.

He wasn't at my locker, he wasn't in class, he wasn't at the cafeteria and he wasn't waiting for me outside after school.

I had a bad feeling about this.

I was in no mood of speaking that day and my mother looked worried. She asked me what the matter was but I just shook my head and muttered nothing.

I had seen Kim at school seeming pretty happy and wondered whether she knew what happened to my Jake. I didn't bother asking her though because I had never spoken to her before and I assumed she was a year older me. Besides how would she know about Jake? I'm sure her and Jared spend most of their time loving each other than speaking of the pack.

~*~

It was now Friday and there was still no sign of Jake. I cried myself to sleep every night just wondering where he was and what had happened to him and the thought of leaving tomorrow killed me.

Grandma's house wasn't located in Washington and that meant flying was my way of transport. I wasn't a fan of flying but being far away from La Push was what hurt the most.

When Saturday did approach, my mom dropped me off at the airport and hugged me goodbye.

"Your Grandma will be so happy to see you Eva," she told me as I was about to board the plane.

I nodded and held back my tears, "Yeah and mom,".

"Yes darling?,"

"Let me know if you see Jake okay, promise,"

"I will," she frowned, "Why, has he not been around?,"

I shook my head, "No… maybe he's gone fishing or something,".

She smiled, "Yeah I'm sure it's something like that, okay I'll let you know, I promise,".

I smiled weakly, "Thanks, okay see you soon mom, bye," I hugged her and kissed her on the cheek.

"Love you honey, see you soon," my mom waved as I left.

As I boarded the plane and found my seat, I let the tears I held in escape.

I felt a weak hand be placed on my shoulder and I turned to see an old lady seated beside me with a look of pity on her face.

"Is it a boy?," she asked knowingly.

I nodded and burst into tears.

The old lady patted my back comfortingly, "I know how that feels,".

I'm sure she did but she didn't know what imprinting felt like. It was a pull, a strong pull and it was so strong that it hurt the further away you were from each other.

The flight was miserable but the old lady which I found out was called Elizabeth was very comforting and I just tried to pull myself together before I faced my Grandma.
