Chapter 33
Emma's POV
The water was coming from all sides, covering me. I struggled to get to the surface, but my clothing dragged me down. My lungs burned from the water inside. I couldn't breathe and finally I just gave up. I let the water over come me and my mind went blank all I could think was, Jake, I love you. Please go on without me. Live without me. You can find someone who can love you and take care of you. I started to remember the first time I had seen Jake at the party the Bella threw for me. When I looked into his eyes and knew that there was something different about him. Just one look into his eyes and you could see all of the hurt he had been through. I could see that he was protective and caring. Then I remembered when we went sledding and went to Emily and Sam's house. I remembered how on my birthday Jake had taken me to the most beautiful place I had seen in my life, and told me he was a werewolf. My heart hurt so much just thinking that this could be the end.
Jake's POV
I dove as fast as I could. I had to save her. I saw her hit the water, and she didn't surface. I went in after her. It took me a second to find her through the rough, cold waters. Her body was lying on the bottom, limp and lifeless. I hadn't realized it, but I was human, and naked. I grabbed her and pulled her toward the beach.
Emma's POV
He leaned in, his big brown eyes looking into my green eyes. His warm arms wrapped about my waist. I ran my hand through his short, black hair. He leaned in closer, closer closing the gap between us. His warm lips met mine. My first kiss, and it was amazing. I would never forget it.
"Emma." I heard someone calling my name from far away.
"Emma. Please. Emma." It said again.
"Emma, please, babe. Please wake up." It was coming closer. I realized it was Jake calling me.
"Emma, please wake up!" I slowly opened my eyes very slowly, and saw Jake.
"Jake?" I said and started coughing up water. He looked at me. His eyes were red.
"Emma. Thank God. I don't know what I would have done." Then I realized that, he didn't have any clothes on. I giggled.
"Um, Jake? You know you don't have any clothes on right?" I said smiling.
"Oh, yeah." He said, but I had already started shivering violently. It was snowing even more then before, and I was wearing a whole bunch of layers that had all been soaked through. I was freezing.
"We've got to get you out of here. You don't mind if I carry you right?" He said.
"Ye-yes. P-P-Please. I-I-I-I'm so c-cold." I reached up and wrapped my arms around his neck, and he ran to his truck, butt naked.
