A/N:Okay I do not own Twilight if I did Bella would not be a simpering idiot and she would admit she was in love with Jacob and review review review.
Jacob was standing on Charlie's porch debating whether to knock or just turn around and leave Bella had been home from the hospital for two weeks now and he had yet to see her. He came a few times that first week but never made it in the door. He had been here every day this week and he still couldn't seem to make it through the door. He was scared. Since Bella came back into his life, she was all he could think about, but she was dating Edward Cullen and now this. He was only 15 years old and the only other person he had ever seen really hurt was his mom and that was a while ago. He guessed that was why it was so hard for him to step across that threshold. He was afraid what he would find, but he kept coming back because his dad said Bella needed his support and he would do anything for Bella. He raised his hand to knock when Charlie opened the door.
"Jake, are you ever gonna come in?" Charlie asked.
"Sure, sure."
"Look Jake, I know this is hard for you, if you would rather call her I am sure she would understand."
"No Charlie it is just harder than I thought. I want to see her but I don't want to upset her."
"Well son, come on in and we will see how it goes, but I can't take another day of you passing back and forth out here like you are going to your death, if I knew it was going be this hard for you I never would have asked Billy to send you here."
Jacob felt bad as he stepped across the threshold and into the living room. He quietly took in the changes to the Swan house since he and Billy had been there last. He could see a wheelchair in the corner of the living room and a chair lift was now attached to the stairs. Pretty expensive equipment Jacob knew.
"She is confined upstairs for the time being, because her back and leg are still in the healing stages. Dr Cullen is still not sure whether she will walk again and even if she does it will be a long painful process."
"Dad said her boyfriend broke up with her?"
"Yeah, he just couldn't take the thought of her not being able to walk I guess. Hell I don't even know how I will handle it."
"One day at the time Charlie."
"You go on up," Charlie said as Jacob ascended the now cramped staircase. Bella's bedroom door was open and the house was quiet up here. Jacob walked up to Bella's doorway and stopped. She was sleeping, and, with the plaster covering her right leg and torso, even paler than usual. He took a seat in the rocking chair across from her bed.
Bell was dreaming of Edward and her spending the weekends in their meadow. She had loved Edward so much that she was willing to give up everyone and everything in her life to be with him, for eternity, but in the end that was not enough because he was gone and she was broken shell, who would want her now. She lapsed into the nightmare of what happened in Arizona. James was throwing her across the studio, breaking her leg, biting her. It all came back in a rush causing her to scream in her sleep.
He noticed that her head was moving from side to side and she was mumbling. He knew she was dreaming, probably a nightmare but Jacob didn't want to wake her unless she was going to hurt herself. His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of her scream.
"Bella," he said as he jumped up from the chair and hurried to her bedside shaking her gently. "It was just a bad dream," he said softly as her eyes fluttered open.
"Jacob?"
"Yeah, Bells are you okay?"
"Jacob, what are you doing here," she asked trying to avoid the subject all together.
"I came to see how you were doing Bella."
"Why?"
"Because you are my friend and I was worried about you."
"But I haven't been a very good friend to you Jacob." She said as the tears started to fall.
"Bells, don't cry okay. If Charlie sees I made you cry, he won't let me come back," he said as he brushed the tears from her cheeks. "What do you mean you haven't been a good friend to me Bella, you just got here and you had to get adjusted to a new school? I understand and we haven't seen each other in a long time and well…" He trailed off because he knew he was rambling trying to fill the awkward silence.
"That's just what I mean Jake. I should have been spending more time with you guys for the last 5 months I have been so wrapped up in the Cullen's and their drama that I forgot about everyone else and before that I was so wrapped up in Renee and taking care of her that I couldn't see Charlie needed me just as much as she did. He loves me and I did nothing but break his heart since the day I told him I didn't want to spend summers in Forks anymore. I am still breaking his heart."
"Bella, don't be so hard on yourself okay, Charlie knows you loved him even after you left. He has talked about you a lot and he knows Renee needed you and that is why you quit coming and as for the rest of us well we forgive you too. You remember the day we brought you the truck that was Dad's idea Bells. He loves you just as much." He continued talking as he walked around to the other side of the bed and lay down beside her. "Do you know what I remember most about you, besides the mud pies of course? I remember how you always included me even when my sisters didn't want to; you Bella Swan are an amazing person no matter how this all turns out."
Charlie was standing outside Bella's room smiling. He knew Jake would make her feel better.
