"Bye Dr. Cullen," she called after me.
Chapter 10:
JPOV
I was so angry at that stupid doctor. Why did he have to hit on my girlfriend? Why couldn't he just hit on Jessica or something? URRGGHH!! I really wanted to punch him when he asked Bells to try on that stupid white top. It was a really hot top on her, but the way she looked at him, it was like she couldn't look away, like he wouldn't let her or something. She just held his gaze with an awed expression… Was that the way she looked at me? I really hoped so.
"So, Bella you ready to go? I wanna drop by my house and grab some clothes, if you still want me to stay tonight?" I asked her trying to get her attention back again.
She only had to work a half day today because it was Sunday, so Jess was just about to close up anyway. "Yeh sure Jake," she replied, coming over to give me a kiss.
I loved the way she kissed me. It was like we were the only two people on earth and nothing else mattered. She pulled away too early though and I pouted and put on an innocent face.
"Don't get too carried away," she said with a playful smile, "we still have to convince Charlie that we're 'just friends' so you can stay the night again." Then she gave a playful giggle while I started up the Rabbit.
During the drive home I just couldn't stop thinking about that Dr. Cullen dude. Bella noticed my insecurities straight away - she could read me just as easily as I could read her - and gave my hand a squeeze to reassure me that it was just us two and I could talk to her now.
"What's up Jake?" she asked with worried and curious eyes.
"Nothing. Its stupid, I'm just overreacting don't worry about me." I told her. I didn't want to tell her that I was… jealous of him.
"Jake just spit it out before you choke," she said with a nudge to my side.
"Naw, I'm ok. Don't worry about it." I tried to shrug it off and gave her a quick peck. She instantly knew I was hiding something, and I knew it. That was what always made me spill.
"Ok, ok. It's just… the way you looked at that dude earlier today. It made me a little… mad, 'cause you tried on that stupid little white, gorgeous, hugging, sexy top." I said as I laughed, still not quite convincing her.
"You were jealous weren't you Jakey?" she asked, knowing the answer already.
"Naw, I was just angry at him for asking you to try on something. He should have just given his sister or whatever the money and she could come down and try it on herself." I started getting louder though still not yelling.
We'd reached my place down in La Push then and I jumped out of the car and greeted my dad before walking down the hall to my room and grabbing a few clothes.
"Dad I'm staying at Bella's place again tonight. I'll be at school tomorrow but I won't see you 'til tomorrow arvo." I said as I hurried back out to the car.
"Ok Jake. Tell Charlie I said hi will you?" he yelled back wheeling out to the doorstep to wave us goodbye.
"Will do." I called back over my shoulder as I got back into the Rabbit.
I never really took an notice of the speed limits in La Push 'cause I knew I wouldn't get a fine, but as soon as we got back into Forks I had to slow down. Charlie would kill me if he found out how I drove. Bells never really took any notice to my driving, though I knew it frightened her. I slowed down just this once, to make our trip together just that extra bit longer.
"Jake? What's really wrong?" she asked me and I had to tell her the truth, it felt so wrong to lie to her.
"When you told Cullen that you would try on that shirt for him… I just felt so jealous," I explained to her, "And then when he said 'wow', I just couldn't help myself I had to make sure that he knew you were mine. That's why I told you you looked hot and kissed you. I just had to make sure that he knew you were mine, not that you didn't look hot. You looked stunningly beautiful, if Jess and him weren't there I don't know if I would have been able to keep my hands off you." I added with a small chuckle, then she blushed my favourite shade of red, and I knew I was forgiven.
"Jake. You know I'm yours forever, nothing will change that. And when Dr. Cullen asked me to try on the top I sort of knew you would get jealous. Did I mention tat you look so sexy when your jealous." She confessed, and that was it.
As soon as I stopped the car outside Bella's house I turned and forced my lips onto hers and she gladly joined in. Her lips were soft, warm and eager against mine and our love for each other was present as our kiss deepened. She parted her lips slightly and just with the very tip of her tongue she touched it to the edge of my bottom lip and I knew what she wanted. Slowly I slid my tongue into her mouth and together they danced in unison.
We were broken apart by a tap on the passenger window of the Rabbit. We broke apart and turned to see a rather annoyed Charlie standing on the lawn with his fists balled up and his arms crossed over his chest, waiting for us to step out of the car.
"Charlie… I can -" and I was broken off.
"Explain? Yes there seems to be a bit of a situation that you need to explain to me right now. Bella go inside please, I need to talk to Jacob for a minute." He kept his voice stern yet soft.
Bella headed inside after giving me a quick kiss - which only made Charlie even more annoyed than he already was - and gave him a warning glare. With that I readied myself, I closed my eyes, gritted my teeth and then squinted so I could just see Charlie.
He was…smiling at me. I think? I opened my eyes and to my surprise… Charlie was actually smiling at me.
