Chapter 6
Bella's POV
My date with Josh went good. He was a little upset about my early curfew. But he got over it and even asked me to be his girlfriend. That was like a month ago. When Josh's not with me he's on the phone with me. It can get annoying. Jake and Edward are both upset with me because I can't spend time with them anymore. I can't have a moment to think let alone sneak over to see my friends. I'm having my doubts about Josh now. Maybe it's time that we broke up. I've never broke up with anybody before. What do I say, it's not you it's me? It is him. I'm feeling smothered. That and I haven't been able to talk to my best friends since we started dating. I miss them. Well, I guess I should call Josh and ask him to come over.
Josh's POV
Everything is going great. I have successfully got Bella to not talk to the losers she calls friends. Now I am all she has. She is fully mine. I can start making her into what I feel a girlfriend should do. For starters I plan to make her dress up in her finest clothes when she's in public. No more just throwing on whatever she sees in the morning and she must wear some make-up. She wears it on our dates but not to school and that will stop.
Ring. Ring.
It's Bella. Great. "Hey sweetheart."
"Hey, will you come over. We need to talk."
"Sure babe. I will be over in a minute." I flip my cell closed grab my key's and head out to my car. I get in and drive over to Bella's. I get there and she is waiting outside. She walks to my car and climbs in the passenger seat. She is wearing a pair of old blue jeans, a plain white t and a pair of blue crocs. Totally unacceptable. "What did you wanna talk about?"
"Us. I think we need to see other people."
"But why? We have a great relationship. Why throw it away?" I already know it's either Jake or Edward. It has to be them. I thought that I made it to where she didn't have time for them.
"I am just saying that maybe we should take a break. I am only 15 and I am getting behind in school. That and I miss my friends. I haven't talked to them since we started dating."
"Fine. Get out of my car. You want to break up. Remember I won't wait for you. You missed out on me and I'm done with your fucking ass! Now get out!" I shout. Great she is starting to cry. I don't care, I could have made her the perfect girl but now she missed out. There's other girls out there that would've loved to be in her shoes. As soon as she is out I squeal my tires and speed away. Screw that skank.
Jacob's POV
Ring. Ring.
"Hello, Black's residence."
"Hey, is Jake there."
"It's me. What's wrong? Are you crying?"
"I just need to talk to a friend right now."
"I will be right over." I hung up and threw on my shoes and started to jog to Bella's house. Why is she crying? Did Josh hurt her? Was all I could think the whole way there. I don't even knock and open the door and yell "Bella."
"Up here Jake." she calls from her room. I take her stairs two at a time to get to her faster.
"Hey, Bells what's wrong?" She's been crying. Her face is all red and blotchy and she has tears in her eyes. She is trying to hold them back now. I walk to the bed where she is sitting and sit right beside her.
"I broke up with Josh. He didn't take it good." I put my arms around her and she rests her head on my chest.
"Why did you break up with him." I have to ask. I really want to know.
"I missed you and Edward. He was either with me or on the phone with me so I never had a chance to talk to you guys. I couldn't take it anymore. I missed you and Edward."
She missed me. It's like music to my ears. Yeah she said she missed Edward to but a guy can dream right? "We have missed you too. More than you can imagine." She looked up at me and smiled and put her head back on my chest and fell asleep in my arms. So I did what any guy would do. I stretched my arm and grabbed the remote turned on the TV and let her sleep until I heard my name being called. Followed by Charlie looking in Bella's room and seeing Bella curled up with me. "Charlie, it's not what you think."
"I'm hoping it is. What happened to her boyfriend?"
"She dumped him. Then called me crying so I came over to comfort her and she fell asleep and I didn't want to wake her so I started watching TV."
"Good. Well your dad is on the phone. He's wanting to know when you will be home."
"Well Charlie, what's the latest you will let me stay?"
"I guess the night but I want you to know there won't be any funny business."
"Yes sir. Can you tell my dad I don't want to wake her."
"Sure kiddo. You have been a good friend to her I appreciate it." He turned around to walk to the phone.
"Hey Charlie." I say before he is to the stairs.
"Yeah."
"I love Bella. I really do."
"I know. I can see it in your eyes. Everybody knows except for the one person who needs to know. Good night Jake."
"Night sir." Well at least Charlie is cool with it. I get to sleep tonight holding the woman I love. I am in heaven. I lean up against the wall with a pillow propped up to keep me from sliding down and waking Bella. I drift off to sleep.
Bella's POV
I wake up really warm and cozy and decide to cuddle with my blanket a little longer. Then I notice that my in my blanket was Jacob Black. He stayed the night. He really is my best friend. I notice him starting to stir and decide to get up and let him sleep when a arm reaches around my waist and pulls me towards him. I look up at his face and next thing I know he moves his head down and kisses me right on the nose.
"Come on Jake. Let's get up."
"Not yet. Let's cuddle some more first."
"Come on Jake. I'm starving. Let's eat then call Edward and have him meet us at your house. That way you can change your clothes and what not."
"Fine. Have it your way but just remember that you slept with me last night. Wait until I tell everyone at school." I playfully smack him then get up and grab an outfit from my closet and go to the bathroom. Get undressed and hop in the shower. After I put shampoo in my hair I hear a knock on the door. Charlie is at work so it must be Jake. "What do you want?"
"I really need to use the restroom and you only have one so I need to come in. Quick."
"Okay it's open just don't move the curtain and no peaking." I look out one end of the curtain and see Jake walk in. He looks at me.
"Don't peak yourself miss other wise I might be tempted to get in with you."
"HA HA HA! You are so funny tell me when you are done." I close the curtain and a few second.
"I'm decent now. I will wait down in the living room."
"Jake wait" I say. Heck he's already in here. "You can stay and sit on the toilet until I'm done if you want."
After he thinks for a moment he squeaks "sure."
"Thanks I like the company." I say. "What have you and Ed been up to while I was with Josh?"
"Not much. Mostly just trying to think of ways to break you guys up." Wow. He was honest I have to give him that.
"Well, no need now. Don't worry I don't planning on dating anyone until I'm 30. I am a little worried about Edward though. The last time I talked to him was when he...... you know."
"Don't worry Bella. It will only be awkward for a little bit. Then it will be back to normal."
"No, it will never be normal again. He told me that he has feelings for me. I can't just forget that. One of my best friends has real feelings for me. I at least owe him the chance to try and look at him and see if anything is there."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, I plan on looking at him at a different angle. Not the friend angle, a different one. To me you and Ed are just friends. I look at you and see the same kids that I was with when I was like 7. So I will look at him closely and see what I see."
"I guess that makes sense. Have you ever looked at me like that?" Why would Jake ask that.
"No, you see me as the Bella the friend. I have no need to look at you like that. Silly."
"Right."
"Well I'm done will you hand me the towel on the back of the door." I reach my arm around the curtain. He hands me the towel and says "I'll be in the living room" and walks out the door.
Jacob's POV
Ring. Ring.
I run into the kitchen to answer the phone. "Hello, Swan residence."
"Hey, Bella there?"
"Yeah, who is this?"
"Edward."
"Hey, Ed it's me Jake."
"Oh, what are you doing at Bella's?"
"Bella called last night upset after she broke up with Josh and I fell asleep at her house,"
"Oh well, I have some bad news to tell you guys. I'm coming over." Then the line went dead. I wonder what news he has.
"Who was that?" Bella asked.
"Ed, he is coming over. He has bad news to tell us."
"I wonder what it is. Want some toast or something?"
"No, I'm not hungry." Especially after being in the bathroom while Bella was naked behind the curtain.
"Suit yourself" she said as she put a piece of bread in the toaster. We sat in a comfortable silence until the toaster popped up. I watched her put some jell on the toast then clean up her mess. Just as she was about to take a bite the door opened and Ed came in.
She put the toast down and walked towards him and gave him a hug and said "Hey Eddy Bear." He hates that name but she calls him it sometimes just to tease.
"Hey Bella Barbie." He said she really hates that name. She playfully smacked him.
"What's the news Ed." I said.
"I am moving. My dad got a job offer in St. Louis and so I have to move." he said in a small voice.
