Love Story
Chapter 10
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
Jacob stared at Edward. The pale boy didn’t say a word and that infuriated Jacob. What infuriated him even more was that he could smell Edward. The vampire didn’t have the sickly sweet smell that the rest of his family carried, no, his smell was enticing and Jacob wanted to breathe it in deeper. He had imprinted, not just at this moment, but when he had seen Edward one of those nights. Sam had been pissed when he found out; he hated the leeches with every fiber of his being and tried his damnedest to keep Jacob from Edward. So far it had worked but Jacob had expected more of Edward given their history.
“Why have you not come for me? I was ten when we first saw each other in this life; I am now sixteen Edward; that is six years. I waited and you never came…”
Edward watched as Jacob started to pace back and forth across the road. The amount of hurt in the native’s voice made him want to rush forward and assure that hurt away. From Jacob’s thoughts; however, Edward knew that Jacob had more to say. The spasms running through Jacob’s shoulders and down his back also told Edward that he was fighting the urge to phase.
“You didn’t come… but Bella did. She moved here and became my friend. She tried so hard to flirt with me to figure you out,” Jacob chuckled remembering that day at the beach. “God… it hurt to listen to her talk about you. I didn’t…couldn’t understand why Sam hated you and your family so much until I phased. No matter how much Sam hated you, how much the others hated you, I never could hate you. Do you know how many times after I first phased I came to your house?”
Edward blinked, he had not known that. How had Jacob hid his presence so well? His family had a hard time keeping secrets from him, what with his gift and all but… if any of them knew… they had hid it from him. While he thought this over Jacob had continued to speak.
“I didn’t mean to but…after spending so much time with her… I started to have feelings for her.” Edward growled then, more to his own thoughts than to what Jacob had just revealed but Jacob didn’t know that. “Not romantic!” Jacob exclaimed quickly and Edward’s attention went back to what he was saying. “I tried to fool myself into loving her, to replace you, but… she will only ever be a sister to me.”
Edward had to fight to keep from smiling. He was pleased that Jacob would never love Bella how they had loved each other in the past. The place reserved for romantic love in Jacob’s heart was for him and him alone. Sudden sad thoughts brought his attention back to Jacob.
Jacob blinked quickly trying to keep the tears he could feel building up from falling. He didn’t want to cry in front of Edward… not over this. Jacob brought his hands to his hand and rubbed them over his short hair. He tried to think if there was anything else he wanted to tell Edward. There had been so many built up feelings that he wanted to get out and… he had?
Looking at Edward through his fingers for a moment he dropped his hands with a defeated expression on his face. “I don’t know what to think.”
Taking that as his cue Edward walked forward until he was standing right before Jacob. He stared into Jacob’s chocolate eyes for a moment before kneeling in front of the younger boy. Looking up he smiled at Jacob’s befuddled expression. Reaching into his pocket Edward pulled out the ring he had shown Billy barely an hour ago. He opened the box and held it up to Jacob.
A/N: It’s a bit shorter than I wanted but I can only do so much when I just want one character to speak. Give me some love!
