♡ Jacob ♡
This wasn't what I expected Conan to say and I wasn't sure whether or not I wanted to hear it.
" You like her Jake , you really like her , like her for what she is , you don't ask anything of her in return , you just like her - I mean like her , Like " Conan emphasised the word like as if I couldn't hear it clearly " I have never seen you acting so possessive and jealous , you have never been so hot for someone before not even Mila , But right now you would definitely punch any guy who approach Bella in your absence "
He was wrong I would definitely not punch that guy , I will fucking obliterate him .
" If this was anyone else , I wouldn't have bothered about them at all but its you , and you have more issues than a normal playboy . If I don't give you a push in the right direction you might take the trail down the wrong path and you will regret it " wincing slightly Conan scrubbed his face with his hands " that's w
" Oh come on Kyle we are having so much fun , why do you have to ruin it like that ? "I offered with a gleeful smile " You and I both know that Jacob Knight does not date "" what's with that runny eyes expression " he asked looking up from the foam covering dishes" what runny eyes ?"" That's the expression you make when you don't want to talk about something " said Kyle all too wisely , like he knew me like the back of his hand and maybe he did , we have been working together for like three years and this much time was enough for someone to understand a person's habits ."I'm not making runny eyes but you are right I don't want to talk about Jacob right now " or ever , Jacob Knight had ruthlessly clawed out my heart and had eaten it for a snack , I couldn't even imagine a decent scenario where I would be willing to forgive him . He had proven to me that he might be an excellent person to waste your time with but if you were look
" Don't move " said Jacob from behind , if there wasn't an angry highly Likely poisonous snake in front of me , I would have definitely responded with a snappish retort something like ' yeah , Like I can -' you know what forget it , because I was so petrified that I could no longer think straight . I had seen snakes before but we had a rather thick glass acting as a barrier before , never have I seen a snake up so closely . And the fact that I was down right scared of slimy , ugly reptiles like the one in front of me - my legs have turned jelly , I couldn't move even if I wanted to run shrieking my head off . " stop clutching on the door so tightly Bella , I can't pry your fingers off the latch " still whispering Jacob tried to remove my fingers from the door latch , on which I was clutching on with a death grip. " I can't " I moaned , I didn't know how I even made a sound when my entire heart seemed to be lodged in my throat .
♡ Bella ♡Pain lanced my chest " what are you talking about ? Why do you keep saying this again and again?" Jacob Knight as messed up as he was , I knew that he was a confident man , It was kinda disturbing to hear him repeatedly speak such words " I just don't understand what you mean by this ?"" I just want that promise ,princess . It does not mean anything , its not like I'm asking for much am I?"Bullshit " you do realise that your not much , is a lot ?"" is it ?"" If you know me that well as you make yourself sound , you would have known that I don't care about anything - except the truth . You say you want to show me the real you but you are still hiding things from me , your promises are nothing but excuses " he looked like I had slapped him , he sucked in a deep breath running his fingers in his hair " I'm not trying to hurt you Jake but you are hurting me , don't question my feelings so constantly and if you don't have that ounce
" What happened to your car ?" Asked Chris as I entered the living room and walked around the sofa to get to the kitchen for a nice , warm drink .Honestly , I didn't want to tell him what happened but seeing that I no longer have a car right now and my plea to hitch a ride with Selina was unanswered because her cell phone was switched off , I could only turn to Chris for a ride to school tomorrow morning . And my brother was just as nosy as he was gorgeous , so - I was kind off certain that Chris won't agree to let me share a ride with him until I come clean .Heading to the kitchen, I brewed myself a hot cup of cocoa, and took a sip . Only with that one scalding hot sip , did my insides unfroze and a warmth spread around my frozen limbs that were still working a little jerkily , because of the scare that they received today .Taking another sip of my hot cocoa , I strolled back to the living room where Chris was still watchi
Surprised I blinked then -" I thought I wasn't invited " I said raising a brow at Jacob who had the audacity to wince slightly probably remembering the time when he forced me to be the school 's outcast by bullying me worse than ever , in fact I still had a sick suspicion that he also passed down the order that if anyone so much as invited or was seen together enjoying with me , they too will be on his hit radar .Probably because he wanted to give me a hard time , probably because he was afraid that he might get jealous and let the cat slip out of the bag , knowing Jacob maybe it was both ." You are invited now " said Jacob quick as flash getting rid of the unusual bashful expression , he threw his arm around my shoulder .Chris gave him a stinky eye , his gaze locked on the arm that was wrapped around my shoulder , however Jacob didn't tense or even made an effort to remove his arm , apparently totally unaffected by the agitation
" I can't believe this , we are this close -" pinching my thumb and forefinger together , so closely that they were inches away and almost touching each other , I exasperatedly sighed "to graduating yet , professor Carlos somehow believes that we still need to complete this stupid assignment on Hereditary and its impact on a child 's growth and development ? Like who cares, I'm not going to be a child psychologist will I ? You would think that making my life hell for three consecutive years would be enough for him but no -" " you are not the one who got the assignment ," said Selina checking her phone for the sixth time in an hour , I had no idea what and whose message she was waiting for but I had a small suspicion that her constant gluing to her cell phone these days had something to do with a mysterious , chocolate brown eyes certain football captain . " But you won't deny that he only gave my class an assignment , the others got scout free " I said my
Jacob" You are going to pay for this " snarled Chris as he got back to his feet wiping his bloody nose." What ? What did I do ?" Innocently shrugging I grinned in mischief , liking the sight of the little bastard hurt and bleeding . Though I hope I didn't crooked his nose , or Bella might make pay me for his nose job , not that I minded that bit of money but I didn't want to spend on the fucker whose life 's aim was to make my life miserable " You ran head long at my elbow , is it my fault that you wanted to kiss it so badly?"Beside me Conan was grinning as well , watching Carter getting back on his feet as he spat blood on the ground and glared at him , I suspected that Conan was very much relishing the pain he caused to the brother of the girl he was interested in who kept acting like a major pain in his ass .The weekend have finally arrived and I had spent the rest of the days chauffeuring or trying my best to chauffeur Bella around ,which re
BellaOnce Jacob was done telling the entire school that - ' Yes , I had a long time crush on Bella Hamilton ,' he gave the microphone back to the Dj who once again renewed the song that was playing earlier but My attention wasn't on it , nor was it on Selina who was standing beside me with her hands cupping her mouth while her eyes popped in disbelief - she couldn't believe it and I couldn't as well but this wasn't on my concern list not now .All my attention was on the guy who despite the glares of the cheerleaders and shocked , confused faces of others was striding towards me , for once Jacob Knight 's attention wasn't on them it was on me - all on me . Like he couldn't careless about anyone else .He came to a stop in front of me " So how did I do ? Did I set everything right ?"" You didn't have to -" I beganBut Jacob shook his head " No , you were right . I was an ass and acted like one , this was the least I could do
EpilogueOne year later“What I’m trying to say is you can’t blame me for this !” exclaimed Jason , almost lunging at his girlfriend ‘s throat “ you are trying to argue with me with your so called theory but I’m telling you its not gonna work . If you gonna counter my theory you better prove it with real facts not ideologies “I grinned as Alicia gripped her head and groaned , like her head was going to explode any moment because of all the stress and frustration her boyfriend was giving her . Their debate session are always intense despite how loving they are out of the debate club , once inside - oh boy , they would be ready to lunge at each others throat and if I didn’t knew better I would have taken them as mortal enemies .They have never met a topic where the two of them would be able to cordially agree with each other . At first everyone was alarmed and worried when we firs
Bella“ Holy sizzles “ gasped Selina “ you look so beautiful ““ I know right “ said Adriana as she swiped her fake tears with her forefinger “ this is my master piece ,simply flaw-fucking -less amazing “To add to the effect she even sniffed” are you ready ?”Of course I was , this morning Adriana had stormed inside the room that I was sharing with Selina . I have told her in passing that I was going to do my makeup on my own - and believe me the girl squawked so loudly she was one pitch lower than the seagulls .If I wasn’t ready after all that , then I would never be ready . I nodded and once I did , Selina and Adriana grabbed my shoulders before turning me around to face the mirror .And I only had one word in my mind - Gorgeous .The solid champagne slit dress indeed flattered my curves , somehow it made me feel beautiful yet sexy at the same time . A
Bella“ It was the wedding dammit ! “ shrieked my mother “ I wanted you to be beautiful , I wanted you to feel beautiful ! Have you seen Lily ? She looks beautiful , she is healthy and active . The second she appeared in the wedding hall everyone’s gaze was locked upon her and she wasn’t even the bridesmaid ! What about you where were you ? I will tell you “ pointing her fore finger right at my face , my mother snarled “ you were being ignored , everyone was ignoring you despite Jennifer standing next to you because you are not what this society calls beautiful and healthy . You are average Bella , just average ! Do you want to be average ? Because I don’t ! I want my daughter to be beautiful and healthy , the centre of attention ! Even now the doctor can blame it all on the medicine but if you ask me , I say that it was all because you were so heavy . It wasn’t the side effect of the medicine that I gave you , No matter how much those doctor insist it is until they turn bl
Jacob“ Okay first question , exactly how much ICD one needs to overdose and die ? “ I asked but then furrowed my brows “ guess what that’s a stupid question isn’t it ? You can’t answer anyway . So “ I shrugged casually “Let’s see what exactly is the level of ICD overdose ,I can find it myself no need to trouble you “Wilkins ‘s eyes got as wide as saucers as he started to moan continuously , his eyes darting to the door and back to me .“ Ah , you better stop doing that - Grampy “ I told him with a warning note in my voice “ if something happened to you right now , you don’t even have someone to plan your funeral tonight “His eyes widened but he stopped struggling . His body went slack , and his chest rose and fell with uneven breaths . His eyes locked at the needles in my hand .“ that’s a good grampy “ I cooed soft
Bella" I think I will - umm , go ?" said Anna as she walked past Ron without waiting for an answer from me . I wanted to ask Ron , what was that about but the expression on his face made it clear that he didn't want to talk abut what happened just now .So , I swallowed my questions back . Instead I smiled at him " Hey , how are you doing ?"Ron who was still looking over his shoulder , turned his head back at me and smiled back " come on short stacks , is this question something you should be asking ? Instead it should be me asking , how do you feel after beating the death 's ass ?"I sit up a little more comfortably and flash him a victory sign " It feels awesome , I was -"I couldn't even get the words out because he already has his arms wrapped around me so tightly , that it was becoming a struggle to breathe ." I was so scared ,Bella .. just so scared " he said , his shoulders shaking as he rested his head on m
Bella" when I almost lost you , I realised how much I needed you " he said resting his forehead against mine " I didn't think about it while you were right by my side , but when I thought I was going to lose you , I realised that I never told you how much I need you "" I know , that already Jake "" Throughout my life I was scared about needing someone , scared that someday someone would want me and I would want her too "" I know that too "" No , you don't get it " he said nuzzling his head to my neck as he let his head drop down " You have no concept of how much I need you , if you knew you wouldn't be so calm , it would scare the hell out of you . It scares me too "" well , if it makes you feel better . I feel the same " All my life I have fought my battles alone , I have been disappointed so much by my family that I grew resistant even at the thought of needing someone . But Jacob was essential for me ." Glad
Jacob“ Hey , I’m back mum “ standing in front of the white headstone without Dante was awkward enough . But I knew I had to be here because she had always been there for me , I placed the bouquet of roses on her grave . My chest was rippling with so much relief and gratitude than ever before “ just so you know , I’m going to fulfil that promise the one that I made to you . I will study hard and inherit Dante -no Dad ‘s company and be a better man and son , a son you can be proud of ““What I want to say - oh to hell with this “ I wasn’t the emotional type and with all the errs and momentary pauses I was certain that my mum must be laughing at me if she was watching me right now “ What I want to say , is thank you . “ I looked at her grave before looking up at the blue sky “ Thank you so much mum , I know you came through for me …I know you did “Because she had
JacobI knew that this was real selfish on my part but you know what fuck it , because if I don’t put a stop on my pain right now , it will keep brewing until I was on the verge of dying with it . So better just end it before it becomes too much for me to handle .“ Mom , you don’t owe me a damn thing . But if you really have a pull up there I need you to string it up for me -please bring her back to me because I need her “ still leaning against the cold marble tomb , I uttered my final plea “ if you bring her back I will try my best to be a son that you can be proud of , so please tell that guy to return her back , I will do anything -please mum “Nothing , not even a flicker of grass or any soft caress of wind flew next to me . And I knew she didn’t hear it , And honestly I didn’t blame her because if I was in her place where my own kid loved my murderer instead , I wouldn’t listen to his damn ple
Jacob"I know you will be really pissed off about this but honestly I don't care because I have been pissed at you all my life and couldn't do a thing to you so yeah - that account is settled . Now we are going to talk about the new one -Bella , she is really a good person , she is loving , compassionate and caring - something I can't say about myself " I stopped breathing hard as emotions clogged my throat , I cleared it before continuing on with my speech that I have prepared after thoughtful consideration " and she is mine , you hear me mine not yours and you have no right to take her because -" my vision went hazy and something warm and wet trickled down my cheeks . I inhaled sharply staring down at the wooden flooring away from the altar " because she is my everything . I know people shit around the word ' love ' a lot now a days but this different . I have already promised her a future together and I can't fulfil that one promise if she is not by my side . " my voic
