Previously on My Little Piece of Joy:
Jacobs POV
[Dream]
I heard moans and heavy breathing but not just mine. it was dark. I realized I had my eyes closed and opened them to a pair of stunning blue eyes. It felt like they could see right through me. I looked at the rest of the face and it was her. I was still thrusting into her faster and harder than before. She moaned and arched her back into me. My name came out a strangled cry of her release.
"Jacob!"
I woke up out of breath, sweaty, an with a mess in my boxers. 'shit that's the second time I've had that dream.' I had it the other night it felt so real and for some reason I expected her to be there when I woke up, but I was alone. But today I wasn't I looked over to see the sleeping form of Lauren, She lived on the floor above us. We had been checking out each other for a few weeks now and I had finally made a move.
I made to lean over to wake her op but then felt something cold and sticky looking down I remembered the mess I made and decided to go hop in the shower and wake her when I got back. I went to the bathroom and started the shower waiting for it to warm up once it did I stripped out of my sticky boxers and threw them into the hamper reminding my self to do my own laundry this week. Once I got in the shower I got right under the spray the warm water relaxing me almost immediately.
I thought about the dream and how she had been acting the past couple of days. But it wasn't something that new she had been this way around me for some years now but now it was more so than usual. I pushed it to the back of my mind cause it was starting to bug me. I got out of the shower and dried off and put on some clothes. Walking out the bathroom and towards the kitchen I heard singing coming from the balcony. I got closer so I could listen.
[Bella POV]
I sat on the balcony with my guitar and coffee messing with the strings just thinking I had been up for a few minutes now waiting for James. I felt like writing but wasn't sure what to write so I thought that maybe singing something I wrote would be helpful.
I decided to sing a song I wrote when I had met James but I wasn't really sure if it was about him. Its called Terrified
You by the light is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong you're the thing
that's right.
Finally made it through the lonely to the other side.
You said it again my hearts in motion every word feels
like a shooting star. I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark.
And I-I-I I'm in love.
And I-I-I I'm terrified.
For the first time and the last time in my only life
Life…..
"Wow." I turned around to where the voice came from by the door. It was Jake.
"I haven't heard you sing in a long time, you sounded great." I smiled a little. " did you write that?"
"Yea, thanks." I turned my head the other way looking out over the balcony. There was an awkward silence I turned around to see him open his mouth to say something. Just as he was about to James came out.
"Hey I'm ready, lets go."
"okay." I said walking back into the house. I went to go put on my coat looking back at him he hadn't turned around yet. As if he felt my stare he looked back at me and our eyes locked. His brow furrowed, he was in deep thought. I could see the battle waging on in his eyes. About what, im not sure. He opened his mouth again and started to speak.
"Can we….." he was interrupted again by James.
"Lets go." he said tugging on my hand. I looked back at him as we started walking towards the door.
"forget it its nothing important." he said his voice and his eyes told me different.
The day passed by in a blur of colors, patterns, china sets, and center pieces. It was a productive day if it just concerns wedding plans. But the day overall was just blah.
James hardly had any input. He was on his phone the entire time. He was rude to the planner and I was just sick of his shit.
[flashback]
We had been here bout an hour and had went over colors and patterns so far we had about another hour and a half.
"…what are your thoughts on this centerpiece?" the planner Charlotte asked.
"its really beautiful" I really liked this one the best " lets see what he thinks." she just nodded her head.
"Mr. Danvers?" she asked and got no reply.
I looked over and seen that he was on his phone texting. 'dammit why did he have to do this here?'
"James?" he didn't even bat an eye. "James!" I hit his arm. He looked up then. And he looked…...angry?
"what?" he hissed. I was to shocked by his sudden burst of anger that I didn't answer.
"What, what do you want!" he said through clenched teeth.
"What do I want!" I looked back at Charlotte and she looked shocked. " we're planning a wedding for christs sake!" I said slamming my hand down on the table. " Not just any wedding! Our wedding and your asking me what I want!" I practically screamed a him. " you have to be kidding me right now!" he just gave me this blank stare.
"Just leave." I said looking in the other direction.
"What?" was his brilliant answer.
"Go home, do something else because you clearly don't want to be here!"
"Whatever, I'm gone." he got up and started walking out. He dialed a number and before the door closed I heard him say " I'm out."
[end flashback]
I was currently sitting in Jacobs car on my way home because James took my car. I wanted to scream and throw something but most of all I just wanted to cry. But I couldn't do any of that in the car with Jacob. It would just have to wait. The ride felt like it was taking forever. I was very aware of the fact that he was looking at me every few seconds.
We finally made it home and as soon as the car was parked I hopped out and was on my way to the lobby. Lucky for me the elevator doors were just opening. I got on and as the doors were closing I seen Jake running up to try and catch me. I was alone in here so I let the tears that I had been holding in since james left fall. the doors opened on my floor an I got off an started walking to my apartment.
As I was trying to open the door I seen jake getting off of the elevator. I wiped my eyes trying to hide the fact that I was crying and tried to hurry up and open the door and trying to do both I dropped my keys. I tried to hurry up and pick them up but by the time I had them he was already in front of me. I couldn't look at him.
" Bella." was all I heard before I was engulfed in warmth. His arms rapped tightly around me. I just broke, let the tears I had been trying to hide from him fall. We stood there for what seemed like an eternity. Me crying my eyes out and him whispering comforting words into my hair. I had stopped crying enough for him to pull back some. He wiped the remaining tears away and leaned in and kissed me on my forehead.
He put his forehead against mine and we just stayed that way for a while. I don't know what came over me but I stood up on my toes and pressed my lips to his. Then I realized who I was kissing and where we were at and pulled back and stepped away from him. He was staring at me wide eyed and I was staring at him horror written all over my face.
He opened his mouth to speak and it snapped me out of whatever trance I was in and I started making my way to the elevator. He was still standing in front of the door. I pulled out my phone and called the only person I could think to call. Jasper. It rang twice before he picked up.
"Hey Bel…." I cut him off in my panic.
"where are you?" I asked frantically looking back to see that he still hadn't moved.
"I'm pulling into the parking lot right now what's wrong?" catching on to my state of panic. He sounded worried now.
"Don't turn off the car please, can you take me some where?" I asked looking back at him again and he was looking my way now. He must have snapped out of it and he started moving towards me. Just as I got to the elevators the neighbor chick was getting off.
I hurried to get on and get the doors closed as fast as I could. I heard her say something to him. Right before they closed I heard him scream my name.
"Bella!"
-[Jacobs POV]
I don't know what happened but the next thing I know is that her lips are on mine. Then they're not. And she's looking at me in horror and then she's gone. Going down the hall towards the elevator. I could hear her talking to someone but I was stuck for a while. Then I snapped out of it and went after her. By time I got close she was already at the elevator and the doors opened and Lauren stepped off. I was close and before I could get to Bella she stopped me.
"hey there, what happened to you this morning?"
I didn't have time to talk to her so I just said " Later." and kept moving. But by the time I was close enough the doors were already closing. Right before they closed all the way I called her name.
"Bella!"
Fin.
