"You're beautiful, every little piece, love. Don't you know, you're really gonna be someone? Ask anyone. And when you find everything you looked for I hope your life leads you back to my door."- Taylor Swift
I was so happy that Jake was finally starting to accept the imprint. I hadn't seen him since the forest a day ago, but I could tell he was dying to see me. He was on patrol all the time, and the worst part is that he was on patrol when I wasn't. Sam had him patrol the night of our little incident. I was home alone.
For a while I was watching World's Dumbest on television until I heard a knock at the door. I sighed angrily; I hated when people interrupted me and my shows.
I opened the door, and I was shocked at the person I saw in front of me.
It was Bella.
"Hey Paul," she whispered. "Can we talk?"
I looked down at her. "There's nothing to talk about."
"Please."
I let out a huff, walking away from the door. She followed me inside, removing her gloves and scarf.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"I need to talk to you about Jacob."
I glared at her. "Yeah, actually, you do. Stop fucking leading him on. I'm tired of hearing all this shit you do to him. Do you understand how in love with you he is? No, because you're a fucking leech-loving bitch who cares about no one but herself. The leech fucking left. Get over it and stop using Jake as a toy!"
"I'm not trying to," she whispered.
I chuckled sarcastically. "Oh, that's rich. You know you are. You think that Jake can be the one that replaces the leech, but he's not. Stop pulling him back and forth like a fucking yo-yo. He's mine, and you better make it clear to him that you don't love him. If the leech came back, you'd be sitting there like an anxious dog, waiting for him."
"I thought you were the dog," she chuckled.
I looked at her, and I knew I wasn't going to punch a woman, but I was so close.
"Get the fuck out of here leech-lover. If it's a war you want, it's a war you'll get."
"I don't want a war, and I don't want Jacob. He's yours, and I wanted to tell you that."
I looked at her in victory. "Good. Now get the fuck out of here."
She didn't say a word as she left.
That was interesting.
As soon as she left, I opened my phone and called Jacob.
"Hey?" he answered.
"Hey baby. Will you come over?"
"Um, yeah. I guess."
"Okay." I smiled. "See you soon."
Before I knew it, Jacob knocked at my door. I opened it and kissed him softly. He kissed me back and then pushed me out of the way to walk in.
"Is there something you need?" he asked, plopping down on the couch.
"Guess who came to pay me a visit?"
"Who?"
"The wonderful leech-lover," I replied.
He stood up and growled. "What did you do to her?"
He rolled my eyes and pushed him back down. "Relax. I didn't do anything. She came here to tell me she didn't want you; that you were mine."
Jacob sighed, and I could see he was heartbroken. I almost felt sorry that it happened, that she didn't want him. I hated to see him so upset, and I felt bad that I was so happy that she didn't want him.
I sat down next to him and rubbed his back. "I'm sorry."
"No your not," he growled.
"Baby, I am sorry. I'm sorry you're so hurt. But I love you and I'm here for you."
He rubbed his head against my chest like a submissive. I held him close and kissed the top of his head.
"I know you're hurt," I whispered. "But I'm here for you. I'll always be here for you."
He looked up at me with big eyes. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay." I kissed him. "I'm here."
"Thanks," he sighed, sitting up. He put his elbows on his knees and held his head up. "God, why am I so fucking stupid?"
"You're not stupid," I cooed. "She blinded you; love does that to you sometimes."
"I just don't understand how someone can do that to another person."
"Some people just can. She's not a good person; she's also blinded by the leech."
He sat up again and did something I wasn't expecting. He kissed me longingly, holding my face in his hands. I wrapped my arms around his hips, letting him take control for a while, but I got restless and took over. I pulled him on top of me, straddling my lap, and continued to kiss him. I let my hands roam his body as I tasted his mouth. He was finally warming up to me. It was just so right, and I knew he felt that way too. Maybe the leech-lover did just break his heart, but I was sitting right there, ready to mend it. Plus I knew that Jacob would accept the imprint when the leech-lover decided she was done with him.
"Jacob," I whispered. "I need you to stop."
He pulled away with a confused look.
I kept my lips close to his. "If we don't stop now, I might not be able to. It was a miracle that I stopped yesterday."
He nodded. "Okay. I understand, but can I stay here?"
"Of course you can, baby."
He smiled. "Okay. What are we watching?"
I chuckled and turned on the T.V. back on.
