Chapter 2- Imagine That
BPOV

"There you go, Daisy." I patted the cow gently on the head and set off to change out of the grotesque clothes I was wearing.

Tatiana had once again wormed her way out of feeding the animals, claiming that she was sure Jacob was to propose to her soon. She convinced father at the most, nobody else was fooled. I didn't mind though. Animals were much better company anyway. They didn't talk over you or tell you what to do; they were good listeners though.

I finally reached my bedroom and searched in the mess to find my favourite blue dress. Once I had found it and put it on, I reached for my favourite book and went outside to sit on the grass and read.

That's another thing I love: reading. Reading, like animals, relaxed me; it was peaceful and calming.

Carefully laying down on the green blades, I opened the first page and preceded to bury myself into the fiction.

"Belle!" Jacob smiled widely before grabbing the book out of my hands. He looked confused and then disgusted, "How can you read this? There's no pictures" He complained, dropping the book to the floor, breaking it's spine.

"Well, some people use their imagination." I explained, picking it back up and brushing the specs of dirt of it, "And it's Bella, not Belle."

I don't really have anything against the name Belle, it just sounds a bit ridiculous. Like I am asking for everyone to ring me because I'm a bell. Bella was much prettier and sounded much more romantic.

While I had been pondering, I hadn't noticed that Jacob had taken a seat besides me.

"How are you then, beautiful Bella?" It didn't take a genius to figure out that Jacob had a massive crush on me; you could smell the lust from miles away.

"I'm good, thank you. Now if you would excuse me, I'd like to read my book in peace." I stood up and made a move to go back inside my house.

"I'll just join you then." He followed me like a little puppy and once I was inside, he shut the door behind him.

"Jacob, I said in peace." I emphasised the in peace part knowing that, like my sister Irina, Jacob couldn't keep his mouth shut for over 5 seconds.

"But Bella, I have to stay!" He declared, striding up towards me until he was taking up the most part of my personal space, "This is the day your dreams come true."

"What would you know about my dreams, Jacob?" I questioned, folding my arms across my chest and raising one eyebrow.

"Plenty! Here, picture this: A rustic hunting lodge, my latest kill roasting on the fire, and my little wife massaging my feet, while the little ones play on the floor with the dogs. We'll have six or seven." I looked at him in disbelief.

"Dogs?" I asked.

"No, Bella! Strapping boys, like me!" I held in my laughter as I went to sit down in the armchair. Of course, there was no denying that Jacob was strapping. He was an extremely handsome man, with dark skin and cropped black hair with muscles the size of…well, you know; they were big. But what I was finding comical was that he thought that we actually had a future together.

"Imagine that." I wondered, looking like I was actually thinking about it for his amusement.

"And do you know who that little wife will be?" He knelt in front of my seat and put his hands on my knees.

"Let me think…" It was becoming almost impossible to keep my laughter inside.

"You, Bella!" He exclaimed, changing the position of his hands to hold mine.

"Jacob, I'm speechless," I stood back up, letting go of his hands, and started walking back towards the door to get away from him, "I really don't know what to say."

"Say you'll marry me!" Jacob begged, getting down on one knee and reaching for my hand to kiss it.

"I'm very sorry, Jacob…but…but I just don't deserve you!" I lied, quickly slipping away before he could obtest anymore.

Thank goodness that was over with.

"So how did it go?" Michael queried, on my heel like a hound dog as I fumed. How dare Belle refuse my proposal. She was the most beautiful woman in the village, like myself being the best-looking man. We were a perfect match!

I grabbed Mike by the collar and spoke slowly and clearly into his baby-like face.

"I'll have Bella for my wife! Make no mistake about that!"
