We made plans to split up and get clothes for the coming night, and to meet at Jess's in an hour. Alice and Rose went to Alice's Porsche, and Jess and Angela went off to their cars. I went to my truck and rushed home. I quickly packed, and then immediately called Charlie to ask if it was okay to sleepover Jess's. He agreed and I quickly got off the line to call Jake since I wouldn't be seeing him today.
"Hey baby," he said, his warm voice flooding the phone line. "This is an early call today. What's up?" I instantly melted from the sensation of his voice. After the infuriating day I had had, it was good to hear My Jacob's voice soothing me.
"Oh honey," I started. "You will not believe the day I had to deal with." I sighed.
"Poor Bells. Should I come over and make it better?" I smiled at the enthusiasm in his voice.
"I wish. But I've got to go to Jess's for a sleepover tonight; Mike broke up with her." I said, sad that I wouldn't get to see him tonight, but I was glad that I was at least able to talk to him now.
"Oh poor Jess." He said hastily. "But why was your day bad? Did something happen?" He asked. I sighed. I explained the situation with Tyler and Mike quickly. I could hear him getting annoyed. "Do you want me to talk to them?" He asked. "I wouldn't mind at all."
"No, no, no." I quickly said. "I can deal with it. Plus I've got the Cullens here to help. The guys were just being annoying." I laughed. "I really wish I could see you tonight though." I smiled at the thought of him. His voice always comforted me, no matter how far away he was.
"Alright baby. You know how much I miss you, right?" I smiled into the phone,
"Almost as much as I miss you." I said to him. I heard him chuckle.
"No, I'm pretty sure I'm missing you more." He teased.
"Nuh uh." I said, my grin getting wider. We teased back and forth before I realized that I had about ten minutes before I was late. "Jake baby, I've got to get going to Jess's." I said. "But I'll see you later, okay sweetie?"
"Alright." He amended. "Love you beautiful." I smiled.
"I love you too sweetheart." I put hung up and rushed out to the truck with my overnight bag and went to Jess's. I was the last to arrive, but I walked in to see Jess, Angela, Rose, and Alice in a circle laughing uproariously, and with food in the middle.
"Hey Bella!" Alice chimed, waving to me. Rose smirked.
"What took ya so long?" She asked, flipping her hair.
"Yeah Bells," Angela said. "What took ya so long?" I rolled my eyes.
"I'm sorry that I had to call my dad and let him know what was going on, along with Jake." I remarked back, teasingly. They smiled.
"Well you can make up for it by joining the circle." Jess announced. "We're going to have an epic round of truth and dare." I rolled my eyes.
"Oh joy. How could I have lacked the enthusiasm to come and play truth or dare?" I said sarcastically. Angela threw a pillow at me, while Alice and Rose just looked on rolling their eyes.
The next hour and a half was spent playing truth or dare. Although, it was more of a game of just dare than truth or dare. Angela had to have a tray of ice cubes poured down her shirt, while Rose had to recite the alphabet backwards while on her head. Stupid stuff, but hilarious to watch.
We had snacks for dinner although Alice and Rose proclaimed to be 'watching their figures' and therefore couldn't eat anything. Angela made a comment about how if they were watching their figures, then she'd have to get a full time watchman on hers. Everyone cracked up at that. Overall, the sleepover went really well. Angela and Jess fell asleep almost instantly, and Alice, Rose, and I stayed up the entire night. We talked about random things, like teenage girls do.
The next day went quickly. Since it was a Saturday, we got to sleep late, but I left somewhat early. And when I left, so did the Cullens. I gave everyone goodbye hugs and rushed back home. I took a shower, and when I entered my bedroom, I saw an outfit laid out on my bed. There was a note attached in Alice's spidery handwriting. 'For when you see Jake today.' It said. I rolled my eyes. This girl was ridiculous. I put the clothes on anyway. I looked in the mirror and really liked what I saw.
The shirt was light butter yellow and was short sleeved and was flowy. I absolutely loved it. Alice was beginning to understand my style a bit more. She had paired it with a pair of dark jean capri pants and my black ballet flats. I did my own hair and makeup and after drying my hair, I went straight to Jake's, where Charlie was presumably at.
As I bounded up the stairs to Jake's house, I knocked on the door and got swept off my feet. I was instantly in Jake's arms as soon as the door had opened. He nuzzled me to his chest and kissed my forehead.
"I missed you far too much." He murmured into my hair, burying his face into it. I smiled snuggled closer to his chest.
"You're telling me." I joked. "I had to go through an entire horrible day of Jacob deprivation." I shook my head in mock severity. "It was horrible." He smiled and kissed me gently. I could feel his smile in it which made me smile as well.
"Well, I'm glad to know that it's being fixed right now." He said, gazing down at me. I sighed, content in his arms. He carried me in the house, where Charlie and Billy were sitting on the couch. They were used to Jake insisting on carrying me anywhere. They found it quite humorous in fact.
"Keep doing that, and she'll forget how to walk." Charlie joked. I just rolled my eyes and Billy chuckled. Jake just smiled, and he set me down on the couch and sat down next to me. I immediately cuddled up next to him and we all watched TV together. We stayed like that until it was time for lunch, which Jake and I made, and then when dinnertime came, we made that too. We were being lazy and just hanging around the house, but it was actually very comforting in a way. Besides, I didn't really care where I was, as long as Jake was somewhat nearby.
Jake and I went out to see a movie after dinner though, with the insistence of Charlie and Billy. We went to see another horror, which I swore Jake just wanted to see, because I always jumped during it. Well, that, and I could also hide from the big scary monsters by just snuggling into Jake's chest. He was never scared by the movies. Instead, he just laughed at some of the idiotic special effects. After the movie, we went into a photo booth that existed in the arcade. We took a bunch of the typical kind of photos, the goofy bunny ears, a sweet smile, snuggled up, and of course, a kiss. We got two copies of it, so we could each have one with us always. I loved every single picture. Jake then insisted on attempting to win me a stuffed animal out of one of the machines. It took him about five dollars, but he did get me the most adorable stuffed wolf. I cuddled it to my chest as we left the theater. When we finally got back, Charlie and I got ready to go back to our house, and I gave Jake our usual parting hug and kiss. Today had been a happy day. I wished it had been a bit longer, but then again, I always did that. I slept happily, cuddled up with my stuffed wolf that Jake had won me.
