Song Born to Die
"I've gotta go to the station Charlie says.''
"Good! -- That's good Bella says.''
"You okay here? You two want to come with?''
"Actually, we -- need to see a friend Bella says.''
********
Bella knocks again finally billy answers the door
"Hi, Billy. I know Jacob's sick but..''
"Actually he's out with friends Billy says.'' Bella aura changes she's confused
"Oh she says.''
"I'll let him know you came," Billy says."
Billy starts to close the door, but Bella stops him.
"Bella I say.'' putting my hand on her shoulder she pulls away from me
"Wait -- he's got mono, right? That's what you told our dad Bella says.''
"You should go on home, Bella.'' he shuts the door
"Come one Bella I say.''
Bella climbs in, slams the door, pissed. Starts the truck.
Then turns it off. Deciding, she tosses the keys aside and
sinks down into her seat.
"We should go home Bella."
"What the hell is wrong with him she says.''
"He probably got feeling better and went out I say.''
Suddenly, there's a KNOCK at the driver's window. She spins to find --
Jacob standing there. But his face is shockingly different.
His hair is cropped short. No friendly smile.No warmth in his eyes. Just a hard, brooding resentment.Bella is taken aback. She climbs out of the truck.
"Fuck I say.'' climbing out into the rain to
"Go away Jacob says.''
behind Jacob stand Sam , Jared, Paul and Embry.
They're oblivious to the rain, wear minimal clothes. I shoot Paul a small smile
"You cut your hair Bella says.''
"Go away he repeats.''
Jacob turns away. Sam leads the group toward the house.
Jacob follows. She grabs his arm.
"Bella don't I say."
"What happened to you, she asks?"
He stops, turns back. The others wait on the porch for him.
"I can help Bella whispers?''
His face is hard as he shakes his head. He's not talking.
"Bella let's just go I say.''
"Sam got to you. What did he do?'' i suck in a breath pulling her to my side
"Sam's trying to help me, don't blame him," Jacob says.'' Paul takes a step forward and Sam stops him shaking his head no.
"Then who Bella asks?'' jacob is seething in bitterness
"How 'bout those filthy, reeking bloodsuckers you love? The Cullens''
"Jacob don't go there I say.''
"I don't know what your talking about Bella says.''
"You know exactly what I'm talking about.'' He's shaking, almost convulsing with anger.
Paul shoot me a nervous look.
"The Cullens are long gone. How are they to blame I say?''
"They started all this by existing.Goddamn leeches''
"Jacob Sam yells.''
Jacob glances at Sam, who gives him a look. Jacob takes a
breath, trying to calm himself.
"I can't be friends with you anymore.'' Bella sucks in a breath taking a step back in shock
"Jake, I know I hurt you. I should have been more up-front but -- I
needed you, I still do. I don't know what that means yet, but if you give
me time Bella says.'' her voice shaking
"Stop. Don't. It's not you..."
"It's not you, it's me?" "God."
"It's true. I'm not... good Jacob says.''
"You're wrong Bella says.''
"It doesn't matter. This is over.''
"I can't take losing my best friend, too.'' this pain fest is taking a toll on my emotions as tears roll down my face
"You already have."
"Don't say that -- you promised.."
"Go home, Bella. Don't come back.'' jacob turns and run's off towards the house Bella turns to me I take her in my arms as she sobs
"I'll be back later I mouth.'' Paul nods closing the door to the house
*****************************************
The door opens and here comes the boys laughing and pushing each other around
"You're going to break something I say.'' Paul hears my voice his head snaps up and he grins running towards me and wrapping his arms around my waist from behind
"Smells good Paul says.'' kissing my cheek
"Thank you I say.''
"What is it he asks?''
"No idea I just put the ingredients in that Em told me.'' Jacob walks into the house after everyone else looks at me and rolls his eyes.
"Don't I say.''
"Why is she even here Jacob asks?''
"Excuse me Paul says.''
"You heard me, she's a amante de los demonios.''
"Watch your mouth Paul says.''
"Just telling the truth Jacob says.'' Paul pushed Jake backwards into the wall
"I said watch your mouth Paul says.''
"Oh your big mad huh?!" jacob pushes him back Paul starts to shake
"Enough!" I yell grabbing my jacket
"I'm leaving fuck!.'' storming out of the house
"Bryn!" Paul calls after me I turn around tears staining my face
"Oh Mi amor Paul says.'' pulling me into his arms
"He's right you know.''
"No he's not he shouldn't call names.''
"But I am a demon lover I say.''
"You were a demon lover.'' Paul corrects me i look up with him through my lashes and shake my head
"You still love him he asks?'' pulling away from me he's shocked
"I can't not I say.'' he shakes stepping away from me further afraid
"But I'm here with you now he's gone I say.''
"But you love him he asks?''
"I think I always will I say.'' he steps away again
"Paul I say.''
"No.. stay away he says.'' the heat burning off him turns into steam as he shifts
"I'll go I say.''
"I Love you I say.'' climbing onto my bike he howls as I ride away
