I forgot about Tanya in the last ch. She went hunting. Onward and forward.
.. Only through in my head as I lay across Jake on the couch when the door opens.
Tanya is back.
She looks at me, anger crosses her face.
"Carlise? What she doing here?" She asks
"She's my patient. Do you have a problem?" he asks calmly, I didn't hear him come home
"Is there a reason she is not at the hospital?" She asks.
"She isn't comfortable in hospitals and requested she stay here. You can leave if you want." He says.
"She got burned." Emmett says to Jasper.
"Real bad." She can hear.
"Will you two grow up?" She screams at them
"We didn't do anything." Jasper holds his hands up.
"You two are acting like kids. You always are." She says
"You know who's acting like a kid?" Em asks
"Besides you?" She asks in a annoyed tone.
"Your husband, our little Eddie." Jasper says, smiling, his hands crossed, shoulder to shoulder with Emmett.
She keeps opening and closing her mouth like a fish until she picks up my can of root beer and chucks it at them, I crack up.
Jake throws his head over the back of the couch and laughs real loud. So do the boys.
"We should have a food fight." I say
"You are all kids." Tanya states.
"You should go cry about it to idiot Edward." I say
She seems lost for words and shoots up stairs and we crack up.
"She doesn't know a good time if it slapped her in the face." Jasper says.
"We should have a food fight through" I say again.
"Maybe another day." Carlise says smiling
"Oh darn." I joke.
Jake laughs and rubs my arm.
"What do you want to do?" He asks
"I don't know, make Edward see he's being stupid." I sigh
"Give him time." He is so simple
He kisses me and I forget everything except the way his lips feel on mine. Some clears their throat and coughs.
Tanya is there, a pained look on her face.
"Sorry about before." she mumbles.
"Good, I'm not." I grumble and turn back to Jake.
"Bells, be nice." Jake frowns.
"Why?" I challenge.
"Because she is." He grins.
"She started it." I pout.
"Doesn't matter."
"I don't want to leave you." I add
"I'll be here when you get back." He smiles
"That's what Edward said." I grumble.
"Bella, it's not like that." He starts.
"I know, I know. Ok." I finally say.
"I'm sorry to." I say to Tanya.
He snorts and Edward comes down. Jake pulls me close, whispering in my hair
"It's ok Bella, I got you." He promises
I move his arm from my shoulders to around my ribs and stomach like a harness so I won't kill him.
"Jake, hold on to me." I warn. (Sound familiar? *Cough Breaking Dawn cough*)
He laughs lightly, shaking me to my bones. He tightens his arms and I feel safe.
"Hey Bells?" Jake asks suddenly
"Yeah?" I ask
"I love you." He whispers
I giggles and twist my head to kiss him and he laughs and kisses me back.
"Your a real idiot." Emmett and Jasper come running in screaming it.
Me and Jake crack up.
"You are the dumbest person in the history of people." Jasper growls.
"And you spent 70 years reading." Emmett adds.
"Don't you dare-" Tanya starts but Emmett holds up his hand.
"I don't know how you married such a stupid person. At least Bella isn't stupid." Jake surprises me.
I stop moving, ready for the snap, growls, hits, pushing me to the side so they can fight and tear at my broken (but mending) heart. It doesn't come.
"Bells, you can breathe, it's ok. No one is going to fight anyone. It's fine." Jacob says calmly
Suddenly I'm crying, sobbing into his shirt.
"It's fine Bell. I got you. I love you." He keeps whispering
"I'm sorry, I just have been so scared." I try to stop the tears but more come.
"It's fine. Why were you scared? You don't need to be. No one can hurt you. I won't let them." He almost begs.
"I was scared he was going to come back. It gave me so many nightmares, screaming till my dad said I should go away, away form you Jake." I manage to get out.
"Oh Bella," He puts his head on my sobbing one.
I don't know how long I keep it up till I hear a huge crash.
Edward took the vase from the counter and smashed it on the ground. No one moves.
Suddenly Alice runs in.
"Someone, grab a bucket, Bella is gonna puke in about 20 seconds"
She's right, I lose anything in my stomach as soon as Jake has the trash can in front of me. I just start crying again, wiping my mouth on my arm and leaning against Jacob.
"Poor kid." Esme says
I groan.
"Let's go upstairs." Jake suggests, whisking me into his strong arms
He walks slowly, stopping in front of Edward, kissing me.
"You missed the prize big time." He says, kissing me again.
"Ew! How can you do that, I just puked all over us." I complain.
It's true, I puked again mid puke and kinda missed the can.
"Nothing a shower can't help." He says,
I laugh weakly and relax.
He brings us to the master bathroom, starting the shower.
"I'm sorry Bella, I heard him coming down, I should have told you." He says
"It's fine." I whisper, to tired to do anything else.
He sets me on the bench by the shower, taking off his shirt. Suddenly I'm kneeling in front of the toilet, puking my guts out, again. Jake rubs my back.
"I'm really sorry Bella." He murmurs, handing me a cup to rinse.
"Can we just shower and go to sleep?" I beg.
"Anything." He helps me into the tile shower, striping off my gross clothes till I'm bare
I have no shame or embarrassment. He rinses off and then lets me. He smiles at me and I smile back. He kisses me and I kiss him in that tile shower under warm water that washes away my pain.
He gently washes me with a scrubby that smells like oranges till my skin is a light red but not from pain. It feels so good. (You know those ball things that you add gel to and its like a sponge thing?)
He finishes washing off himself and turns off the shower, grabbing me a towel.
"Thanks Jake." I manage, close to falling asleep.
"Anything." He repeats.
I find some p.j pants and a tee and clumsy slip into them, brushing my teeth and letting Jake carry me to my waiting bed.
"Goodnight my Bella." He whispers, laying next to me.
"Do something for me." I slur out.
"Anything." He promises.
"Stay."
I fall asleep with my best friend ready to fight anything for me. I don't need a vampire, just a best friend who loves me.
They did NOT have sex. How was it? I NEED REVIEWS TO KEEP GOING! PLEASE!
