Happy reading. Hope you enjoy!

"Sonia, we need to talk." Jacob`s deep voice startled me from behind. Couldn`t this guy give me a break? I had just finished work and was looking forward to a nice coffee and alone time before I headed home. I had been zombie like after the incident last night with the weird cold guy Edward and that stupid Bella chick. I couldn`t handle more unwarranted Jacob hate. I whirled around and came face to chest with him. He was pushing seven feet at least.

"We don`t need to talk about anything Jacob. What did I say about never talking to me again? Are you as stupid as you look or do you get some sort of sick satisfaction from torturing me?" My words sounded as bitter as I felt. He regarded me with raised eyebrows before answering.

"I`m torturing you?" He sounded almost...pleased? Proud? I wanted to punch him in his stupid fucking face.

"Get laid moron." I turned around and headed for the bus stop. My car wouldn`t start this morning so I had to get a lift from my mom to work and then get the hourly bus home from Port Angeles to La Push. Why does all the bullshit come together?

"Maybe you could help me with that." Jacob said from behind me. I stopped dead in my tracks and turned to face him slowly.

"You can`t be serious! Bella not putting out Jakey poos?" I smirked as his face twisted in anger. Now I knew what buttons to press. He must have it bad for the girl. He said nothing so I continued.

"I get it now. You want her and she doesn`t want you. So you figured that I might be an easy lay. Go sell it to Ciara. You know she`s boasted about how she snagged you. You two idiots deserve each other." I gave him my best distasteful look before stalking off smiling to myself. Before I could get five feet a roasting hot hand encircled my upper arm and pulled me to a stop. I realized to my utter horror that it felt wonderful. I rebelled against the feeling and pulled myself out of his hold.

"You know shit Sonia." Jacob snarled down at me.

"Try explaining it to me then Jacob! I seriously don`t know what I have done to you. But I am telling you this now and you better listen carefully. If you have nothing comprehendible to say to me don`t bother speaking to me. I have had enough of your shit. Do you think it feels good to hear that someone hates you for no reason?" I got as close to his face as my height could possibly allow.

"There`s a reason Sonia! That`s why I want to talk to you." He said quietly. We were starting to get some attention from the people on the street.

"Then spill Jacob! I`m all ears. I would love to know what I could have possibly done."

"Not here." He said nervously, looking around.

"Then bye. I`m not wasting my time on you. I hate the sight of you now." I turned and stalked to the bus stop with renewed vigor. Of course the idiot had to follow me.

"Christ Sonia! It`s important! Let me give you a ride home at least." He asked with forced politeness.

"No." I answered firmly, crossing my arms and looking at anything but him.

"I promise I`ll leave you alone if you want me to. Just hear me out first." He said with sincerity.

"No."

"No?"

"N. O. No."

"Fine! You can rot here for all I care. Maybe the bus driver will do me a favor and run you over!" He spat. I looked up at him in horror. That was the most terrible thing anybody had ever said to me. So I was worth more to him dead? He`d be happier if I didn`t exist. I felt my insides turn to ice. Jacob must have sensed he had crossed a line for his face softened as he understood the full effect his words had on me. He stood erect and ran his hands nervously through his hair.

"I`m...I`m sorry I said that Sonia. I didn`t mean it. Fuck...I`m sorry okay!"

I didn`t say anything. I couldn`t. I was speechless. That hurt me to the very core of my being. I just stared up at him.

"Just stop looking at me like that! I said I was sorry!" Jake whined a bit pathetically. Remorse was etched into his face and eyes. I felt horribly cold. And dizzy. I felt like I was going to be sick. I rose on shaky legs and and wandered off. There was a buzzing sound in my ears and my vision began to blur a little.

"Sonia?" Jacob`s voice rang out through the buzzing. I didn`t want to look at him.

"Sonia, come on. I`ll take you home." I felt a hot hand encircle my own. The skin on skin contact proved to much. I felt an unbearable heat course through my body that made my head spin.

"Sonia, it`s okay. You`ll be okay I swear. Just let me take you home. Just say the words." Jacob`s husky voice pleaded.

"Take me home." I said. I heard him sigh in relief. He gently pulled me along to his car. He seemed afraid to touch me anywhere other than my hand. My vision was still a bit blurred as I was led to the passenger door of his Rabbit. I put my head in my hands in an attempt to stop the spinning. I hoped to got that I wouldn`t get car sick. I felt the car move and groan under Jacob`s weight as he got in.

"How do you feel?" He asked quietly.

"Like shit." I whispered into my hands.

"I`m sorry." He said again.

"It`s not your fault I feel sick." He was silent for a while.

"Do you want some water or something?"

"Don`t worry. I just want to go home." I lay back in the seat. My head was beginning to pound.

He started up the engine and we left Port Angeles at a snails pace. He was probably afraid I would barf in his car if he drove faster. Smart move Jacob. I knew I would hurl eventually.

"My house is just off Beach Drive." I said as we entered the reservation.

"I know. Just a couple more minutes." Part of me was flattered that he knew where I lived. Get over it girl! The guy hates you and wants you dead! He pulled up into my driveway. I saw that my moms car was gone. I remembered that she and nana were going to an engagement party over at the Makah reservation. Crap. I wanted them to take care of me.

"There`s nobody home." Jacob said. How the fuck did he know that?

"They`re out. Thanks for the ride." I opened the door and grabbed my bag. I must have stood up too quickly because I got a horrible head rush.

"Easy there Sonia." Jacob`s scorching hands were suddenly wrapped around my waist hold me upright. That feels so good. I am such a bimbo! "Do you need me to stay?"

"Just help me to the sofa and then I`ll be fine." Did I actually want him in my house? I wanted him in my bed but that was never going to happen. I hated him and he hated me. He was just feeling guilty about what he said. Well let him feel guilty.

Remember to review! It makes the story better!
