“Fuck Bella….I don’t know what you want me to do, I’m being honest with you and still it isn’t good enough, you threw a fucking shoe off my nose”

I stood up walked to the kitchen and got the first aid box, a few minutes later I cleaned Jacobs face up.

“Ok I’m going to listen and not react, just say whatever you feel”

“I love you Bella”

“That isn’t enough Jacob, not after what you have done to me”

“I am going to work a way to get us out of this Bella, I am going to make this right for you” I remained quiet.

“You being with….him tonight it killed me, how the fuck can I compete with him” I scrunched up my face wondering what the hell he was going on about; I had only been with him once, why would he be competing against him?

“Look Jacob” I took a deep breath to compose myself, I had just bought a new lamp, I didn’t want to throw it off his head again.

“I have read through that contract a hundred times, I cannot work out the loophole, they have obviously put their best teams at work on this one, it’s not something obvious” I took a step closer to him and Jacob reached out and placed his arms tightly around my back and pulled me in. He hugged into my stomach and I scrunched up his hair in my hands.

This felt like the Jake I knew, the Jake I loved.

“I’m going to bed Jake, we’ll speak tomorrow” Jacob kissed my stomach and looked up at me with those puppy dog eyes, had I not just been with Edward I would have melted, but I couldn’t cope with this tonight, I couldn’t let Jacob back in our bed, not yet, not while I was consumed with all these emotions.

“I love you Jake, but not tonight”

“I love you so much Bella, please believe me when I say that, you are the one I want to marry and have children with, genuinely I do”

Jacob stood up and placed his hands on both of my cheeks and stared into my eyes.
