Fighter

Chapter Four

Bella woke to the sound of tapping at her window she sat up and reached for her phone it was only 2 am. She walked over to the window and unlocked it to have a very wet Jacob climb inside, she hadn't even noticed that it was pouring rain.

"Geez Bells took you long enough". She rolled her eyes at Jacob "Well who's the stupid wolf knocking at my window at 2 am Jake?". Jacob shrugged and sat in her rocking chair while Bella headed over to the end of the bed and sat down "What you doing here Jake?".

Jake shrugged his shoulders and dropped his head down "Look Bells I know that I fucked up huge with you and you don't understand how sorry I am for being a shit friend, I never wanted to imprint I wanted to be with you, I know I know you weren't ever interested in me, but I did hope that one day you might change your mind. Imprinting screws everything up and that is why Mel hates you because she knows that if I could pick I'd still always pick you because you're MY choice, not fates. I need to get over that I know Mel is great, she's different which is nice and she really cares about me. I really am happy for you and Paul it's just going to take me a bit to get used to it ok, but I promise I will be there for you because at the end of the day I could never give up my friendship with you and I made it very clear to Mel and she understands. So when you are ready I wanna be Jake and Bells again ok".

Bella smiled over at Jacob and got up and hugged him tight "Jacob Black we have been friends since we were in diapers, I wouldn't trade you up for the world no matter how pissed off you make me. I appreciate you supporting me and Paul more then you know and I will keep trying with Melanie and make it very clear that she is your number one girl, but you need to do a lot to make it up to her as well she is in a horrible position, I mean think about it she has to see you hang out with the girl you loved almost every day if that was me I would be very worried, so you need to show her that she is your number one person ok".

Jacob nodded and kissed her cheek "Thanks, Bells I never thought of it like that, anyway I'm gonna go you have another visitor waiting for you outside". Jake chuckled and winked at her as he jumped out the window. She laughed and looked down to see Paul, she smiled and stood back so he could jump up.

"Hey" Paul stood awkwardly near Bella. She closed the distance and held him tight and kissed his chest "I'm not angry at you Baby I'm sorry if you thought I was, but I just couldn't handle today it was a lot to process, I just needed some time I'm sorry I ran away". Paul kissed her softly and ran his hands through her hair and walked them over to the bed where they both laid down.

"I'm sorry about today and that it got to you, but after the conversation, I just heard I'm going to take a guess and say you're a lot better?". Bella cuddled into his chest more as Paul laced their hands together "Yeah I am I was just frustrated with Jake and it just built up, but he's going to try now and that's all that matters, is that ok with you though?"

"Babe, I'm so happy that you and Jake are gonna try to be mates again, I know that it means a lot to you so it means a lot to me and I've already warned him if he hurts you again he won't just have me to answer to Quil, Embry and Sam are pretty pissed at him as well". Bella laughed and kissed him deeply and breathed "Thank you, you're always looking out for me". "You're my girl, of course, I've got your back baby, now get some more sleep we are going to breakfast at Sam and Em's in the morning".
