Chapter 17- Not in a million years
-Cali's point of view-
(Unedited)"Jacob, your adopted?" My voice cracked.
"I'm sorry."
"No,Don't be sorry! I'm just shocked."
I wouldn't have guessed it, not in a million years.
Jacob scoots closer to me and I instinctively wrap my arms around him. "Being adopted doesn't matter to me. You're still my one and only Jakey."
Jacob stayed silent for awhile before he finally spoke. "Baby, I know that but I feel like it would've changed everything in our relationship."
"Just because you adopted doesn't mean I wouldn't love you." I simpered.
Jacob cupped my face in his hands.
"And that's one of the many reasons of why I love you."
I inched my face close to his. I heard Jacob's breath hitch. "I like this effect I have on you, Lover."
Jacob's mouth twitched. "What can I say?"
"Nothing," I set his hands off of my face and set them on my waist. I hesitated but then muttered a quick 'screw it' and I pulled Jake's mouth to mine. I tugged at his bottom lip while his hand were limp at his side. I smirked, enjoying this kind of effect I have on Jacob that I never really seemed to notice until now.
I grabbed Jacob's arms and put them around my neck. He finally gave in and started to kiss me back. I sighed, now thats my Jacob. Although he seemed hesitant about kissing me.
"Jacob, it doesn't matter to me that your adopted." I mumbled against his lips.
Jacob gently set me off of him.
"Cali, that's the thing-I know I shouldn't be making this such a big deal- I feel like you should care."
"I care that your adopted! Jacob, just don't think of it in a bad way. I love you no matter what." I nervously yanked at my pajama shirt.
"I know but I think that's why my 'mom' is so worried about me being with you." Jacob put air quotes around 'mom'.
"She's scared of how I'd react?"
"No, she's scared you'd help me find my real mom."
"I'd only help if you would let me."
Jacob looked shocked that I had said such a thing.
"Baby, No way, My real mom is a druggy and my biological dad is in prison for murder or whatever."
"Jacob, I'm so sorry to hear that." I couldn't think of anything else to say.
Jacob shrugged and then smiled grimly at me. "Baby, Don't worry about me."
"Jake-"
"No, Trust me."
I slumped my shoulders in defeat. "Fine."
Jacob seemed to shift uncomfortably on the Hotel bed. "Cal, I just don't know what to say right now other than I hope this doesn't change the way you feel about me."
" Something like that would never change the way I think of you and it shouldn't effect our relationship." I set my hand on top of Jacob's.
Jacob flinched.
"Jake. . ."
"No, baby don't worry I'm just shocked your taking this so well. My parents told me you would leave me in a heart beat."
"Lover, I would never do such a thing!" I was appalled that Jacob would think of such a horrible thing.
"Baby, that's why I love you."
I kissed Jacob on the cheek. "I love you too,Lover." I said Lover just to make Jacob happy.
Jacob fought a smile as I kissed his cheek again, unsure if he would let me actually kiss him.
"Baby, this is getting just plain old depressing lets do something."
Despite Tyler just recently dying I really did feel like I needed another good time out with Jacob.
"Okay, Lover."
Jacob sighed and he cupped my face and kissed my roughly on the lips. I automatically wrapped my arms around Jacob and kissed him back.
Before we could do anymore kissing Mouse started to bark relentlessly at us as if to say: 'I'm right here so, could you not?!'.
I pulled away and I dragged Mousey to the bathroom and shit him in their. Jacob started to laugh. "Wow, Baby your just so damn cute."
"Well. . . Mouse would've kept barking." I jokingly protested.
Jacob grabbed my arm and snaked his arm around my waist.
"Let's go,"
"Where,"
"I don't know we can walk until we see something that seems fun." Jacob looked at me with his icy-blue eyes
We left the hotel and started to walk.
I groaned. "Nothing seems fun!"
Jacob squeezed my hand. "I'm fun,"
"Mhm,"
Jacob nudged me with his shoulder and winked. "Don't deny it, Baby."
"Yeah?"
"Yep," Jacob kissed my cheek.
I few people started to stare at us admiring our coupledom.
I felt my cheeks heat up and I hid my face in Jake's shoulder.
"Aw, Baby." Jacob laughed.
My voice was muffled in his soft grey T-shirt. "Its embarrassing!"
Jacob stopped and lifted my head up off of his shoulder. "Cali, Cali, Cali, it's not embarrassing, Hell baby, I want to show the world that your mine."
I deepened a few more shades of Crimson. "Jacob your-"
Jacob smashed his lips into mine and kissed me greedily.
Shocked, I tried to squirm away but Jacob had a firm grip around my waist with one hand and the other tangling my hair in his fingers.
I managed to pull away for a few seconds. "We are in public-"
I tried to say but Jacob successfully cut me off with another greedy kiss. I heard a few catcalls and wolf whistles.
Jacob pulled away with a triumphant look on his face. Damn, that's kinda hot.
"What, baby?"
I cursed under my breath realizing that I had just said that out loud.
Jacob kissed me again but I was quick enough to pull away before it would get to much for the public.
"Hey, let's go to that restaurant." I said, trying to change the subject.
Jacob looked where I was pointing. "You want to eat Mexican?"
"Yeah, it was my favorite when I was little."
"I know."
"Then why did you ask."
"I don't know, baby."
"I don't think you should have asked me that then." I said in mock annoyance.
I held Jacob's hand and I lead him into Moe's. A hostess greeted us with a faux grin.
"Welcome to Moe's!" She looked like she's in some serious pain.
"Uh, Hi." I flatly replied.
She narrowed her eyes at me but then she looked over at Jacob and I saw a spark in them. Jacob wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my cheek as if he knew my discomfort of her wicked glare.
"Table for two." I grinned at her.
I attempted to piss her off by trying to kill her with my niceness.
She gritted her teeth and muttered a weak and a pissed off okay.
She set us at a booth. "Your server will be here soon." She threw the silver ware down at our table and stomped off like she owned the whole Goddamn place.
"She was PMSing." Jacob snickered cruelly.
I agreed. "No doubt about it."
He placed a hand on my knee.
Jacob refused to sit across from me. It was as if he couldn't stand not being near me or touching me in some way.
I leaned my head on his shoulder and yawned. "Lover, I'm tired."
"It's our first real date and you are tired?" Jacob picked up a menu.
I nodded. "Mhm, but I'll have to suck it up just for you. "
I earned a quick peck on the lips from Jacob. "Good,"
I picked up the menu. "Aren't you lucky?"
"Yep," Jacob said popping the 'p'.
I turned the page on the menu and looked at the different types of tacos.
A waiter walked over to our table with a notepad in hand.
"Hey, I'm Caleb, what would you two like to drink?"
I looked up from my menu. "Uh, I'll have a cherry lemonade."
He nodded and wrote it done on his notepad. "And for you?"
"Coke," Jacob set his menu down on the table.
Caleb wrote down Jacob's drink. "Do you guys know what you want or do you need a little more time?"
Jacob looked at me and raised an eyebrow. "Cali, you ready to order?"
I shrugged. "Sure,"
Caleb nodded. "Okay what do you want?"
"I'll have a regular hard shell taco, Please." I set my menu on top of Jacob's.
Caleb nodded and pointed his pen at Jacob. "Three regular hard shell tacos,"
Caleb picked up the menus. "Your food will be ready soon."
"So, Baby I don't know if I told you but Monday we have a football game at Devenford Prep. Could you come?"
"Of course!"
"Since it's away do you want to wear one of my jerseys?" Jacob asked shyly.
"I'd love too,"
A shy grin spread across his face. "I'm glad you finally going to come to school."
"Who said I would go to school?" I joked.
"Cali, you've missed a week already, you should go back to school."
"Fine, but why are we talking about this, it is still Saturday."
"I don't know, I mean I felt like I should give you a few days notice about the game." Jacob picked at the table.
"Okay, that's perfectly fine. I was just wondering."
Our Waiter intruded on our conversation.
"Hey, sorry to bother you two but, here is your Coke and Cherry lemonade."
"Thanks," Jacob and I said in unison.
"I will be back in five minutes with you tacos." The Waiter, Caleb, walked off.For the rest of our date we talked about different things like Jacob's football game, School and we also talked about us when we were little.
Jacob grabbed the card for the hotel room and unlocked it.
We walked in with our hands intertwined.
"Let's watch a movie," I suggested.
"Okay," Jacob turned on the light switch.
I saw a figure sitting on one of the beds. I assumed it was Mouse but, I remembered putting him in the bathroom. I squeezed Jacob's hand and he noticed what I was looking at. My Dad.
"What the hell are you doing here?!" Jacob growled menacingly at Steve.
"You're not a dog Jacob, do not growl at me." Steve casually said.
Jacob let go of my hand and walked over to someone I used to sadly call my Father.
"I said, what the hell are you doing here!" Jacob's hand were balled into fists and his knuckles turned a ghostly shade of white.
I was half tempted to open the bathroom door and let Mouse out to attack Steve. The scenario ran through my head a couple of times, waiting for Steve to answer Jacob's demand.
"If you must know, Jacob, I want to take custody of Cali. They've somehow found out that her Mother is an alcoholic." Steve had a twisted and sick grin on his aged face.
"Hell can freeze over before I live with you. You broke into the hotel room and you've hit me more than once. You also might not want to forget that I have scars to prove it and that Jacob has witnessed it almost happen again in the hospital."
"I don't give a damn," Steve's face had turned a tomatoey hue.
Silence fell on the room. Jacob was too pissed off to talk and I far to stunned to talk.
Once again, Steve broke the silence.
"I want custody of Cali."A/N
