"I'm asking a simple question, Bella," Jacob said, "A yes or no would do. Did you meet your ex-fiance behind my back?"
He was scaring me.
His eyes were so cold...
I had a feeling he was going to do it again!
"Ummm... I just stumbled across him in the mall..." I stuttered.
And before I could say anything further, he punched me on the face.
I was too stunned to react.
This was the third time in the last two months he had done this...
Why?
What was my fault?
"You're disgusting!" He said and stormed out of the room.
How could he hit me?
Why?
Didn't he say he loved me?
Wasn't he my friend?
Why would he hurt me like this?
And why was I letting him do it?
"Why do you make me do this, baby?" He came back after a few minutes.
He had tears in his eyes.
"You know how much I love you, right?" he said, "You never understand my love for you. Not when we were seven. Not today when you're my wife! You always take my feelings for granted..."
"I don't..." I said angrily, "But you don't try to understand me. You're very possessive... You... scare me!"
"No... I don't want to scare you..." he said as he brushed my tears with his hand, "No... I don't want to do that! I love you. Let me show it to you!" He said as he leaned forward to slam his lips on mine.
My eyes snapped open and I realized I was sweating heavily.
I wondered if I'd ever stop having these nightmares.
Probably no, because these weren't just the nightmares!
It was my harsh past, and probably I could never escape from it!
"You okay?" I heard Edward's groggy voice as he snuggled closer to me and wrapped his around me.
"Hmmm..." I said as I put my hand on his.
No... I wasn't going to let anything spoil our relationship.
We were happy the way we were.
I wasn't going to ask him any questions about Angela.
I didn't want to give a damn about his past.
I didn't want to have any kind of expectations from this relationship.
We were better off the way we were!
