AN: Once again as I said in UD, I'm so sorry about updating. Just recently my laptop got a whole bunch of viruses on it, and I plan on getting it fixed tomorrow. Luckily I have everything on my USB drive that I always have on me no matter where I go. I'll try to start updating faster as soon as I get my laptop fixed, but I just got inducted into the National Honor Society at my school, so I have to keep my grades up. School means more to me than my stories, so if my updates are late then you all know the reason why.
In this chapter you get to see a whole new side of Jayden with her back story. It's pretty intense, but it's necessary for the later chapters in the story. Also a few people have asked me about what the characters look like, and I'm trying to find pictures for them right now. I'm sorry to say that I'll be using anime pictures for the characters. It's just that they give me a variety of pictures to choose from, so it's easier to find what I want.
Chapter Four
Defending A Woman's Honor
Jayden's Pov
Max said that she was going to the bathroom, but that was almost over fifteen minutes ago, and I was starting to get a little worried. Bella, Alice, and I decided to go find her before she got lost. As we were walking down to the only bathroom down the cafeteria hallway, we stumbled across Max and Jacob kissing. At first I was going to beat his face in, but when I saw that her hands were fisted in his shirt I felt my heart shatter. My heart ached in pain so bad, that I had to grasp my own shirt over the spot where it rested. I felt tears sting my eyes as I bolted down the hallway into the band room, my sister following me.
"Jayden, I'm sorry that you had to see that." she told me as I headed to my secluded spot in the classroom.
"I don't care, Bella. Why am I always the one who gets fucked in the end?" I asked as I started to break down. My sister wrapped her arms around me and began to comfort me.
"Don't you dare think about Emily. You know damn well that she cheated on you and played you the second that she saw Sam. I told you that she was no good to begin with." she said to me.
"I was in love with her, Bella. She was the first person I ever had a real relationship with, and while she was dating me she was fucking Sam behind my back. I was stupid back then to ever forgive her for what she did, and I did break it off with her the second time I caught them together. But with Max it's different, Bella. I think that she's my mate." I answered.
Yeah, I dated a girl who's name is, Emily Young. Long story short, she was the love of my life until I caught her in bed with my cousin, Sam Uley. Then she got this crazy idea where she wanted to share herself between us, basically saying that she wanted us to be a love triangle. I told her to fuck off and leave me alone, and she moved so that she could go to school with Sam. She's in my grade, and we were together last year. Now she's graduating from our rival high school, Mountain Valley high school. Not only that, but we're playing them this Friday, so I was sure that I was going to run into her at the game.
"I know, Jayden. Believe me, I see the way that you look at her. I'll help you get her back." she said to me before giving me a quick kiss on the forehead and leaving to go to her class. I saw my band mates come into the classroom and walk straight over to me. We all walked into the second half of the classroom that had a small stage and all our instruments set up. I grabbed my guitar, while Jasper went to his drums, Edward to his guitar, and Kate to her bass. I watched as Tanya made her way to Max, and I motioned for us to start playing.
And now we're broken on the floor
She just wants me to share her
It hasn't been this way before
She just wants me to dare her
The phone rings
And she screams
Stab my back
It's better when I bleed for you
You walk on me
It never was enough to do
I can get past her
Falling faster it's true
It's hasn't done a lot for you
And every time he held you close
Yeah were you thinking of me
And when I needed you the most
Well I hope that you're happy
The phone rings
And she screams
Stab my back
It's better when I bleed for you
You walk on me
It never was enough to do
I can't get past her
Falling faster it's true
It's better when I bleed for you
I hope that love he gave you
Was just enough to save you
You nearly broke my heart
Just look at what you're tearing apart
Stab my back
It's better when I bleed for you
You walk on me
It never was enough to do
I can't get past her
Falling faster it's true
It hasn't done a lot for you
It's better when I bleed for you
It never was enough to do
It hasn't done a lot for you
This entire song sums up my relationship with Emily. I played it countless times, because it reminds me that she never loved in the first place. That being said, it helped me get over my feelings that I ever held for her easy. It also helped me calm down in some ways. Probably because I was playing my guitar, and that normally calms me down. The second that I got off stage, Max threw herself into my arms. My friends shut the door on us so that we could talk with each other, not that I really wanted to.
"You really shouldn't be hugging me if you're with Jacob now." I told her and unwrapped her body from mine. I saw her face contort into a hurt expression, and it caused my heart to ache again. I shrugged it off as nothing.
"I'm not with Jacob, Jayden." she told me. I felt my anger boil over when she said this.
"What, so you just walk around campus kissing random guys!" I exclaimed. She gasped as if I offended her, which I probably did. When my anger spikes out of control, I can turn into a real mean bitch. I watched as tears cascaded down her cheeks. It might've hurt like hell, but she brought this on herself.
"I don't kiss guys that force themselves on me, Jayden. Jacob stole my first kiss that I wanted to give to you!" she yelled at me. I literally feel like the world's biggest douche bag. I can't believe that I acted this way towards her, when I should've known in the first place it was all Jacob's fault. The anger that I felt from Emily for cheating on me, was taken out on the wrong person. It should be taken out on Jacob and his jackass stepbrother, Sam. I opened my arms, to which Max collapsed into immediately. I wrapped my arms around her tightly as she began to cry into my chest.
"Maxie, I'm so sorry for taking my anger out on you. Please, forgive me." I whispered, pleading her to say yes. She pulled away from me and nodded, a smile plastered on her face. I pulled her into another hug, before giving her a couple of tissues. She thanked me and dried her eyes. I watched as she went over to the piano and motioned for me to come sit down with her.
"Who was that song about, Jay?" she asked as I sat down next to her on the piano bench.
"I'll tell you about them later, okay." I told her softly. She nodded and placed her hands on the piano keys. I watched in awe as she played Claire De Lune perfectly. I felt like I was intruding on a private moment when I saw her eyes close as she really got into the music. When she finished playing, she smiled softly up at me. I smiled back and went over to the stereo. I put Debussy's cd in and played Claire De Lune on it. I offered my hand out to her.
"May I have this dance?" I asked her. She shook her head and took a step backwards.
"I can't dance." she replied. I chuckled and walked over to her.
"Everyone can dance, Maxie. It's easy." I told her.
She looked at me skeptically, but placed her hand in my anyways. I placed my right hand on her waist, while she placed her left on my right shoulder. We began to sway slowly to the music. I twirled her slowly and brought her back to me. I smiled down at her, causing her to give me a shy smile back. She blushed and buried her head into my chest. When she pulled back, all I could do was stare at her lips as they glistened in the low lighting of the room. I leaned in halfway, giving her the option of either backing out, or lean in.
I felt like electricity struck my body as she placed her lips on mine. I cupped her cheek with my hand and stroked it with my thumb as our lips moved in a slow, gentle, rhythm. I heard a tiny moan erupt from her throat, causing one of my own to come out too. I pulled away after a little while completely breathless. A smile spread its way across my face as I saw that Max's eyes were still closed. I stroked her cheek again, causing her eyes to flutter open. I giggled when she blushed and buried her head back into my chest again. I rubbed her back to try to take the nervousness away from her.
"Now that's how your first kiss should've been." I whispered to her. The bell rang, signaling us to make our way to our seventh period class. I offered my arms out for her to take.
"May I walk you to our next class, my lady." I said in a posh English accent. Max lightly slapped my arm and started laughing. Her laugh is just so cute.
"Why yes you may, kind sir." she replied back in an English accent. She laced her arm in mine, and we made our way upstairs to our free period classroom. Now this class was going to be interesting because the teacher never showed up to watch us, so things tended to get out of hand. Especially since Jacob and Paul are in this class too. I can't wait to take my anger out on Jacob for what he did to my Maxie.
"Hey Jayden, what are we to each other now?" Max asked me.
"Well I'd like for you to be my girlfriend, but only if you want to be." I said nervously. What if she didn't want to be in a relationship right now? Maybe she wants to see if she could have other options. I really hope that she says yes.
"Of course I want to be your girlfriend." she said happily and pulled me into a hug. I wrapped my arms around her and placed a kiss on her forehead before pulling away. I put my arm around her waist and pulled her closer to me as we got closer to the classroom. I could hear a commotion going on inside.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Max and I rushed into the classroom to see a furious Alice being held back by my sister, and a furious Jessica being held back by her friends. I guess the first war has started between Bella's fan club and their opponent, Alice. Seeing how Bella looks at Alice, these girls don't stand a chance. I just hope that my own little fan club doesn't do anything to Max, especially Lauren Mallory. Talk about your stalkers, this girl has already told me how our wedding and honeymoon plans are going to go. She's not just your typical stalker either, because she's one mean bitch to mess with.
"Stupid bitch, Bella's mine!" Jessica yelled. I had to cover my mouth with my hands to keep from laughing out loud. Really Jessica, no body can tame Bella unless it was her mate, bitch please! We have a history of being the bad girls that the student body want. It's not our fault that our beasts have an insatiable sex drive. Mostly we take care of it within the pack, but occasionally we end up bedding someone outside of the pack.
"Oh yeah, well whose the one warming up her bed at night!" Alice replied. A chorus of "ohh's," rang out from the surrounding students. I looked down and saw Max trying to hold back her laughter. My mouth was agape at what Alice had said. I have heard worse from AJ and Lexi, but the punch that she put into her words got me.
"You probably have to tie her down in order for her to stay, otherwise she would run straight out of the room away from your crazy ass." Jessica retorted. There were a couple of laughs and snickers, but everyone quieted down when my sister moaned out loud.
"This little sex kitten can dominate me any day and everyday if she wanted to. Tie me down and sex me up!" she said and all of the guys hooted and hollered. She got high fives from all of the guys in the class, while Jessica and her posse stormed over to the other side of the class.
"Dayum Alice, you were fucking awesome, and not to mention totally hot!" I said to her. I got not only glares from Bella and Max, but Max slapped me on the shoulder hard. I flinched in pain and rubbed it while pouting at her. She chuckled and gave me a chaste kiss on my lips. I heard Alice and Bella gasp, and I scratched the back of my neck sheepishly while Max blushed.
"Since when are you guys in a relationship?" Bella asked.
"Since band class." I replied. We all got settled down at a table with each other, Alice and Bella sitting across from Max and me. I stroked my thumb over Max's hand that was clasped with mine.
"What happened?" Alice asked.
"Well Jayden and I argued at first, but got everything worked out. Then we started playing the piano and started dancing. Before long Jayden gave me my first kiss while dancing to Claire De Lune." Max answered.
At first Alice and my sister congratulated us, but then they went into complete and total over protective sister mode. We got the whole speech about hurting one another and how they would hurt us if we did talk. We were all enjoying each other's company, and then Jacob and Paul came stalking in. I felt my canines elongate and felt my muscles tighten as if I was ready to fight. Max grabbed at my arm in concern. I gently took her hand off and stood up to confront Jacob. He was just standing there smirking at me.
"What's wrong, Jayden? You upset that Max is going to pick me over you, after all, I did give her the first amazing kiss that she'll ever receive." he said. I felt a deep growl rumble in my chest, but I plastered a smirk on my face. This douche bag had no idea what was about to happen.
"You mean the kiss that you forced upon her, and it drove her into my open arms. By the way I think you owe my girlfriend an apology." I replied. The smirk fell off of his face like he just stared death in the eyes.
"You may have her now, Jayden, but I swear that I'll steal her just like Sam did to your precious Emily." he sneered. I couldn't contain myself after that. I tackled him to the floor and began to rain down blows on his face. Bella pulled me off of him and held me back before I could kill him. I was fighting against Bella so that I could get back to him, but he and Paul ran out.
"Jayden, calm the fuck down now!" Bella yelled at me and then slapped me across my face to bring me back. I can't handle being here anymore and need to go home. There's just too many bad memories collecting in my mind right now.
"Bella, tell the coach that I'm sick or something and can't go to practice today. I need to go home right now." I said to her. She nodded and let me go. As I was walking down the hallway, I was aware of footsteps coming from behind me. I turned around as saw that it was Max.
"Can I go home with you?" she asked me. I nodded and held out my hand for her. She clasped her hand with mine, and we walked all the way to where my bike was parked. We put on our helmets and made our way back to the house. We carried our things upstairs into our room. I was just hoping that Max wouldn't ask me about the Emily situation.
Bella's Pov
After all of the drama that happened in free period today, everyone's conversation revolved around it. Most people were gossiping about Alice and Max now, and it was making me angry. How can you spread lies about someone that you don't even know? It's just plain stupid to me. My mind was constantly wondering about how Jayden and Max are doing after Jacob's ass got kicked. Hopefully Jayden doesn't do something stupid after hearing what Jacob said about Emily.
"Who's Emily?" Alice asked me. I felt anger flash throughout my body, but I kept it in check.
"She's the girl that broke my sister's heart." I replied. I watched as Alice's expressions turned from astonishment to thoughtful, and then finally turning into outright anger. I was curious as to why she was angry.
"Why are you so angry?" I asked.
"Because nobody deserves to have their heartbroken, and I don't know if Jayden would dump Max to get back together with Emily if she had the chance." she replied.
"In all honesty, Alice, if Jayden ever got back with Emily I would literally kill her. That bitch was nothing but trouble for the entire family. She got Jayden so messed up into a whole bunch of shit, that it took her almost a year of rehab to get clean." I spat threw my teeth. I saw Alice's eyes widen when I told her this.
"Can you tell me the entire story?" she asked me and clasped my hand in hers. I sighed as the painful memories of what my sister went through come flashing through my mind.
"Last year at the beginning of the school year, Jayden met Emily. I knew that she was no good from the start, but Jayden had tunnel vision around the girl and completely fell in love with her. She got Jayden into doing drugs, drinking, ditching school, partying, and all that stuff. Jayden hardly ever spoke to me for the three months that they were together. It wasn't until their third month in their relationship did I notice something wrong. Our cousin, Sam, who's Jacob and Paul's brother, came over to the house once while Emily was over. Let's just say that when Jayden went to go find Emily, there they were fucking each other's brains out in our pool. She let it slide the first time, but the next week she went over to Emily's house and saw them fucking in Emily's bed. Then the bitch had the nerve to ask if all three of them could be in a relationship with each other, and Jayden told her to fuck off." I told her. Alice's mouth was agape when I finished, and I saw that her eyes were burning with anger.
"What happened after that?" she asked softly.
"Jayden threw herself into drugs and alcohol and almost died from overdosing. If I didn't show up when I did, she would've died. You should've seen her, Alice. She was nothing but skin and bones and was always passed out on her bed. When I found her, she was on the couch with a bottle of Scotch in her hand and an empty pill bottle on the table." I told her. A couple of tears made their way down my face, and she wiped them away for me. This is what I loved about Alice. She can be as sexy as hell when she wants to, but is always kind and gentle.
"I need to make sure that she's okay. I'm going to call AJ and tell her where were going." I said and sent a text to AJ, who always has her phone on. She sent a text back saying that she and Lexi are going to come with us.
We all met up in the parking lot and drove back home. When we put everything away, we rushed upstairs to see Jayden burning old pictures in the fireplace with Max's arms wrapped around her. They looked up at us, and Jayden ran into my arms. I looked around the room to see if she had anything out that she wasn't suppose to. Thank goodness that I didn't see anything. I rubbed my hand up and down Jayden's back, causing her to calm down in my arms. I looked over at Max and saw that she had tears stains down her cheeks.
"What happened while we were gone?" Alice asked them.
"Jayden told me about Emily, and that's about it." Max replied.
"Well since nobody has homework for the day, how about we do something fun." Lexi suggested.
"Why don't we go play some pool over at Billiards." AJ suggested. We all agreed and took the bikes and Camaro again. This was our usual hang out spot since Angela's dad own the place. People also knew not to mess with us or our company, so things should go smoothly tonight.
As we pulled up, we were greeted by some regulars and got wolf whistles from some of guys outside. We walked in with our arms wrapped around our girls to signify not to approach them. There was only one other table occupied, so we picked our usual table. It was in the back corner of the place where we could see the door and anybody who walked. It was our duty of being in the pack to watch out for one another, so we always did this for Mr. Webber whenever we came. Luckily I remembered to bring my favorite cigars with me, so that we could just relax and have a fun time after what happened at school. I gave one to AJ and Jayden, and we all lit up. The first game started off with AJ and Lexi versus Jayden and Max, leaving Alice and me a little free time to talk.
"I didn't know that you smoked." she said as we sat down on the chairs next to the table.
"Only on occasion do we ever smoke, and after today's events I think it's okay. It's not a problem is it, because I can go put out cig right now." I replied back. I took a hit and stuck my cigar in the ashtray on the table beside us. I exhaled the smoke slowly, savoring its warmth.
"No, I don't have a problem with it. I think it's down right sexy in my opinion." she whispered into my ear. I shivered when I felt the tip of her tongue flick against the outer shell of my ear. I have no idea where this side of Alice came from, but I'm sure as hell liking it. We both started laughing when Jayden helped Max make a shot and she started jumping up and down when the ball went into the pocket. It was the game winning shot, so now it was Alice and me versus Jayden and Max.
The game started off good, until Max got into hot streak and knocked in three balls before their streak was over. The way the cue ball was set up, would cause Alice to really have to reach for the ball since it was her turn. I bit my lip as I watched the entire top half of her body lean over the table, giving me the perfect view of her, perfect, tight, ass.
"Bella, I need help." she said with a half smirk on her face. Damn, she was so sexy. I got up and laid my body on top of hers, her ass pressed tight against my crotch. I placed my hands on top of hers and helped her make the shot. We missed, but it was perfectly okay. I licked up the side of her delicate neck, causing her to moan before I pulled away.
We played a couple more games after that, and went home before it got too late. We got back home at around nine, and all of us took turns taking showers. After that we stayed up a little bit longer watching TV, but when Alice and I went to bed everything was a different story. We got into the bed that we shared, both of us facing each other. One minute we were staring at each other, and the next, Alice had her lips firmly pressed against mine. Our lips moved together in sync, and I swept my tongue against her bottom lip asking for entrance. She granted it, her tongue meeting mine playfully. I groaned and she moved so that she was lying on top of me. My hands instantly cupped her ass, causing her to moan into my mouth. No matter how much I wanted to continue this, I didn't want to take it to the next step. I need to do things right and make her my girlfriend first and go out on a couple of dates before we have sex. It just doesn't sit well with me if I don't really know the person before I have sex with them. I cupped her cheeks in my hands and gently pulled her away. We were both breathing heavily after the kiss.
"Alice, we're not ready for this yet." I whispered. I saw her eyes shine with tears that she wouldn't shed as lied down on the bed with her back facing me. Shit, what did do!
"Alice, I'm not saying that I don't want to with you, because I would be lying if I said that. You are honestly the sexist girl I've ever seen, and I would like to pursue a relationship with you and take you out on dates like it should be done. All I'm saying is that it's too soon for us to have sex yet." I said to her gently. She flipped over and looked up at me with her gorgeous, blue, eyes. I cupped her cheek in my hand and softly stroked her smooth as silk skin. Her eyes fluttered and closed as she planted a kiss on my palm.
"Okay, so can I officially call you my girlfriend now?" she asked quietly. I chuckled and planted a kiss on her forehead before wrapping my arms around her. I pulled her close to my body, and she rested her head in the crook of my shoulder.
"Of course you can." I replied. I felt her smile against my neck.
"You know that, that was my first kiss ever right?" she said. My eyes went wide with shock. Nobody has ever kissed this girl before, but yet she's so talented at doing it that I felt my whole body start tingling from it.
"You've gotta be kidding me." I replied back. She shook her head against my neck, her hair tickling my chin and neck. I'm so happy that I get to be my mate's first everything. I get to take her on her first date, get to be her first relationship, and maybe get to be her first sexual experience if she allows me to. Judging by tonight, I don't think that it's not going to happen from her actions. Will just have to see where this new relationship takes us.
