A/N: I'd like to give the biggest thank you in the world to CasperGirl523, PerfectTwo, Lexi Blaze and PinkVeeBerry for reviewing. :)

I realize that I'm constantly forgetting to put up disclaimers almost every other chapter. Dang Stephanie Meyer, who owns the Twilight in which I do not. I'm incredibly jealous.

I have to admit, laser tag with Jacob was intense. I paid, which Jacob fought me tooth and nail on (pun definitely intended), for a double session and I was huffing a little.

When Jacob and I finally walked out into the light I grinned hugely at him and he returned the smile and I swore my heart stopped beating for a second.

"You know," he teased, "For someone who just lost you sure do seem to be taking it well."

I scoffed at him and mockingly aimed a kick at him. "You know for someone who is supposed to be a big bad you know what you sure are taking it well that you only won by two points."

The arcade I had dragged him to was starting to thin out and I lead us over to the snack bar. "Whatever. You know I only let you lose by two points. It's rude to make your friends cry."

I rolled my eyes at him and ordered two large boats of nachos and two fountain drinks while forking over ten bucks. "Jacob, if that's the best comeback you have I'm going to ignore the fact you even said it."

He smiled goofily at me and grabbed our tray and drinks and we walked over to the nearest table. We ate in a comfortable silence and just listened to the bustling around us. I could feel Jacob's eyes on me and I dutifully kept mine focused on the tray in front of me.

Jacob had finished his nachos in record time and I don't know why I was surprised at it. I looked up and saw him eyeing my remaining nachos and I sighed dramatically. "Wow Jake. These sure are good but I don't know if I can finish them all."He smirked and reached out to take the rest from me but before he could I snatched them away and held them to me, just out of his reach. "But I think I just might."

He scowled at me, "I thought I just explained to you how making your friends cry isn't a very nice thing to do."

Raising an eyebrow I asked, "And are you going to cry?"

"Psh, of course not. Men as manly as me don't cry." He scoffed.

"I can look the other way if you need to."

He boomed out a laugh and a couple people by us turned to stare. One of the girls eyes lingered on me for half a second before she ogled Jacob. Jealousy swept over me like the bitch it is and I glared at her until I made it known I knew she was looking. She saw me and glared back only for a second before she turned back around.

My eyes drifted back to Jake and I saw that cocky smirk on his face. I shook my head and shoved my nachos at him. "Eat up." His smirk grew slightly bigger as he devoured the rest of my nachos and I sucked down the rest of my drink.

XXXXXXX

On the car ride back Jacob told me stories of him, Quil, and Embry when they were younger. I laughed so hard at some parts I had tears in my eyes. I guess it was a good thing I let him drive.

The whole time I did nothing but smile and every time I looked at Jake, which believe me was quite often, he was smiling too. It felt strange to me and I didn't understand how or why I felt so comfortable in his presence.

But for tonight I wasn't going to second guess it.

We pulled up into my driveway and let the silence settle around us. I unbuckled my seat belt and just sat there like a fool. I didn't want to leave but knew that I had to. And I was pretty sure if I didn't get out of his car sooner or later he was going to think I was a freak.

"So I guess this is where I say, I had a good time tonight." I muttered, staring out the window into the dark. I was glad I left the porch light on. I'm afraid of the dark, I slept with the TV on and a night light. The way I see it, if I was to be attacked in the middle of the night I wanted to die seeing what happened.

I heard Jacob chuckle and my eyes flew to him. Even in the dark where I could only see some of him, his beauty was still breath taking. "I take it you're not too good ending a date are you?"

Date? He said date? Oh my god, he said date. My stomach did a flip and I quickly had to remind myself to stay focused.

"Oh shut up," I said sticking out my tongue.

He laughed some more and growled playfully. "Oh you don't want to do that."

I cocked an eyebrow and stuck my tongue out again, challenging him. Even in the dark I could see something flash in his eyes and before I even knew what was happening I felt his lips crash against mine, his heat overwhelming me. Shocked, I closed my eyes and moved my lips against his moving my body closer to him.

But all too soon, it was over and I was left breathless and with nothing to say. I watched Jacob as he leaned against his seat closing his eyes.

"Jaelyn…I'm… I'm sorry….I didn't mean…"

I knew what was coming, and I refused to hear it. I had let my hopes climb, thinking that tonight something had happened between me and Jacob. And something obviously did, something Jacob didn't want.

"Don't worry about it." I said in a surprisingly calm voice. Inside I felt a pang that I knew too well as rejection but I refused to acknowledge that right now. I grabbed my sweater and got out of the car.

"Jaelyn-" He called.

"I said don't worry about it," I repeated closing the door and putting the barrier between us. I walked quickly up the steps on my porch and let myself in the house. I slammed the door shut behind me listening as he started up the rabbit and peeled out of the driveway.

I refused to think about what just happened. I ran upstairs and stripped off my clothes changing into pajamas and quickly brushed my teeth. Climbing into my bed, I hummed Gone Forever by Three Days Grace.

The fact is, I didn't want to admit to myself how crushed I felt.

I couldn't see more than a foot in front of me but I knew I had to keep moving. I ran blindly down the hallway and could hear his footsteps close behind me.

"JAY!" He roared as he sailed through the air and tackled me. I screamed against my will and batted at him trying to get away but he easily had a hundred pounds on me and was a lot stronger.

A hand crashed down on my mouth blocking out any sound. Less than a second later I felt his hand punch into the side of my ribs and heard the deafening crack. I whimpered in pain and tried crawling away but Devon had me pinned.

"You tell anyone," He whispered in my ear, his grimy voice making my stomach swirl. "You tell anyone and you're dead Uley. Don't you dare doubt me for a fucking second."

With all my strength I slammed into him with both my hands and knocked him to the side of me. I rolled over and tried pushing myself up and nearly collapsed at the pain in my ribs. I heard him groan and I pushed myself up finally and ran as fast as I could to the door. I opened the door and bolted out into the snow storm. It took all my strength not to collapse in the snow but I knew the farther away I got from Devon the safer I was.

When I finally got to my car I looked back at the house and saw him standing there. "Remember what I said!" He shouted over the roar of the wind, and I knew it wasn't the snow that put the goose bumps on my skin.

"Jaelyn! Jaelyn wake up!"

"Let go of me! Stop!"

"Jaelyn, it's me, Jacob. Stop, it's okay."

I thrashed against the warm hands that held onto my arms and looked up into the most beautiful pair of eyes I had ever seen.

I stopped assaulting him and took in my surroundings. I was in my bed and so wasn't Jacob, the sheets entangled around me in a giant mess. It was just a dream, I reminded myself. I had nothing to worry about.

I fell backwards onto my bed and tried to control my breathing. It took a minute but once I did my reality came into focus. Jacob was in my house, in my bed only hours after he tried apologizing for kissing me when he never really wanted to.

I bolted up again and stared him down. "What are you doing here?"

From the faint light of my night light, which happened to be a Spiderman nightlight, I could see Jacob blush lightly. "I…I…."

"Spit it out wolf boy," I said, a little harsher than I intended to. I looked over at my clock and read the annoying thing that told me it was one thirty in the morning.

"I was running patrol and came by the house to see if you were still awake because I wanted to talk to you and then I heard you screaming and panicked and you left the back door locked, which you really shouldn't do you know not that anyone in La Push would break in and a locked door certainly wouldn't keep anything else that might break into your house out but it could he-"

"Jacob!" The look he gave me tugged at my heart and I mentally scowled at myself for letting him have that reaction in the first place. Look where that got me last time. I sighed, exhausted despite the couple hours of sleep I had managed to get and Jacob didn't look any better than I did. He looked exhausted. I remember him mentioning how he got barely any sleep the night before and it was definitely taking a toll. I leaned back down and looked at him.

"What I said earlier…it didn't come out the way I wanted." I saw him rub the back of his neck while he stared at the foot of my bed. "I was trying to just be friends because I'm afraid of hurting you. And kissing you kind of destroyed that plan."

We sat in the silence, I didn't say anything. I didn't know what to say and I was pretty sure my bad dream had just morphed into a good dream and this was all a figment of my imagination.

"I should go, you're falling asleep." He muttered standing up from the bed.

"Jacob, just lay down with me. You'll kill yourself trying to get home you're so tired." Oh yeah, my dream self was definitely had a lot more confidence. But hey, this was my dream and I was going to make it good.

"Jaelyn…you sure?" He asked already sitting back down on my bed.

I smiled and nodded and in less than a second he was collapsed next to me. I chuckled and breathed deeply snuggling into the side of Jacob's warm, bare chest. I felt his arm wrap around me and fell back to sleep. Best dream ever.

XXXXXXX

It wasn't a dream, Jacob was in my bed. Jacob freaking Black was lying in my bed and I was cuddled up right next to him.

I rolled over to look at my alarm clock and fell off the bed. "Oomph." I groaned lightly and threw the blanket off of me.

"Jaelyn?" Jacob slurred, apparently he was just waking up too. Great. "Jaelyn," He said more soundly and I saw his head peak over the edge of the bed looking at me. Hell, I could most definitely get used waking up this way if I could to see his face first thing in the morning. He smirked at me and laughed while I scowled at him. "You know you're supposed to wake up on the bed not the floor."

I stuck my tongue out at him.

"I thought I told you last night not to do that," he said a little more huskily than I was actually prepared for.

"Uhm." I muttered rubbing my forehead. "I have to pee."

He chuckled and nodded still looking down at me from the edge of the bed. I pushed myself up off the floor and walked across the bedroom into the adjoining bathroom; another reason why I loved this house so much. I turned on the faucet in the sink while I peed so he couldn't hear me. After I brushed my teeth and wiped my face clean with a wet wash cloth waking myself up fully in the process.

I took a deep breath and after a few moments let it out in a giant huff. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and then over at the door that separated me from Jacob.

I seriously doubted hiding out in my bathroom until he left, I mean I could always drink out of the faucet and I remembered reading somewhere a person could live on water alone for a couple days.

I don't think I realized how long I had been in the bathroom because I heard Jacob knock on the door. "Jay, are you okay?"

I was most definitely not prepared for this.

A/N: So I know I promised more about Jacob's and Jay's past but life's been nosy and getting in the way of everything lately. And if I wrote more to what I wanted this would be very long. Lol. But the next chapter will have more of the past. I promise. :)Reviews make me smile insanely. :D
