It's been about a week since Jacob and Paul fought. We've been grounded ever since, Our week is almost up. I've done my time I'm ready to be released for good behavior. Even though I'm pretty sure I'll be on probation for awhile or until Dad forgets about the whole thing.
The morning after the fight after everyone went home Dad sat me and Jacob down and had a long talk with us about friendship and how me and him are family and we have to stick together but at the same time Paul is considered family as well. Then Jacob brought up the dating thing and how he was trying to protect me.
Dad agreed with him saying a big brother should protect his little sister but not to suffocate her he said that I am my own person and I should be responsible for the choices I make and if its something that is dangerous or if I'm at risk to get hurt then Jacob has a right to step in.
Jacob said he felt I was going to get hurt then Dad said Paul would not hurt me and he said that it's only right for Jacob to apologize to Paul for what he said about his family. Jacob wasn't very happy about that but he agreed to apologize.
Me and Jacob didn't talk at all for two days. I was still mad at him for butting into my business and I imagine he was still mad at me for trying to sneak out with Paul. On the third day he finally spoke to me even if it was just yelling at me to hurry up in the bathroom at least it was something.
From then on we slowly started talking more. Then he told me he regretted fighting with Paul and that he doesn't even remember why they stopped talking in the first place. Then he asked me to do him a favor he said the next time I talked to Paul to tell him that he wanted to talk to him. I told him I would tell him the next time I saw him.
The next time I saw him whenever that is I thought to myself. At least he's not mad at me I still haven't called him like he asked me to. I've been grounded from the phone as well but once I'm free the first thing I'm going to do is call him and see how he's doing.
I have to go talk to Jacob about these dreams I've been having. Well nightmare's really ever since the sleep over when the guys scared us. I made my way to his room his door was open he was laying on his bed watching TV. What else would he be doing I thought to myself not reading thats for sure I smiled as I approached his doorway knocking softly.
"Hey, Can I talk to you?" I ask standing in his doorway my head peeking into his room.
"Umm, Sure come in, Whats up?" He says turning off his TV and sitting up.
I entered his room and sat at his desk. "I've been having some weird dreams lately"
"It's OK I have those dreams where I'm naked at school too everyone does"
"No, It's not that" I say looking at him weirdly.
"I've been having nightmares, Like when I was little"
"Yea I remember those, When Mom and Dad had to go and check underneath your bed for the boggy man"
"Yea Its like that but worst this time, They feel real, There different now, Before it was someone coming after me or us, And now it's someone completely different, Almost like I'm seeing what there seeing and there always getting chased by someone or something, And right when they get caught I wake up"
"Damn that sounds messed up, Who is it thats chasing them?"
"That's the thing right when they get caught, Right before they show who it is, I wake up, But it just feels so real, Sometimes I even wake up breathing hard like I've been running, Or I'll check myself thinking I'm hurt"
"Have you told Mom and Dad about this"
"No I don't want them to worry it's not a big deal it just kind of freaks me out, I'm hoping it'll just go away like before"
"Yea lets hope so, Because there's not enough room in my bed for you and plus you snore really loud" He says laughing at the end.
"Shut up, You fart in your sleep and talk sometimes I hear you, OOOO Leah I love you" I say laughing.
"Yea right, I don't talk in my sleep, And even if I did it wouldn't be about Leah" He says looking embarrassed.
"Yea, You keep telling yourself that" I say as I get up and start to walk out.
"Hey Bella"
I turn around to see what he wants.
"Do you really hear me talking about Leah" He asks nervously.
"Umm, No comment" I say as I smile and walk out of the room as I hear him yell.
"Well you better not tell anyone, Or I'll tell Paul that it sounds like a horse sleeps in your room with you"
I hear him and quickly walk back towards his room and poke my head into his doorway.
"Fine then I'll tell Leah that you sleep with a machine gun"
"What, What are you even talking about, I don't sleep with a machine gun" He says looking confused.
"Well thats what it sounds like when your in here farting all night" I say as I walk out of the room leaving him speechless as I say to him from the hallway.
"Machine gun Jake"
I go downstairs and into the kitchen looking for Dad.
"Hey Mom do you know where Dad is?"
"Umm yea he's out back working on the truck"
"OK thanks" I say as I make my way out the back door towards the garage.
"Hey Dad"
"Yea"
"I was thinking since I've been on my best behavior and all, That maybe just maybe, You could reinstate my phone privileges, Pretty please"
"Since you've been good, Go ahead, But your still grounded, So don't make plans to go anywhere"
I run up and give him a huge hug. "Thanks Dad" I run back into the house grabbing the phone from the receiver and continuing upstairs. I run into my room quickly shutting my door and laying on my bed. I take a deep breath and dial the number as I lay there nervously waiting for someone to answer.
"Hello"
"Is Paul there."
