I saw Jacob look back at me once before turning. "Goodbye Jacob." I murmur and his ears pricked up, I knew he heard me as he continued to stare at me before turning and running over a small hill of rocks covered in moss. That was a sight I would never like or get used to. My mate leaving.
The next day Jasper took me with him, Edward and Bella. They were going to see Jacob to see if him carrying her would cover her scent by his stronger scent. I didn't smell anything wrong with it but apparently Edward did. I mean I didn't like the way the werewolves smell but Jacob was different. It was a mate thing.
I walked behind Bella and Edward until I saw a shirtless Jacob in which a smile lit up on my face. Not because he was shirtless but that was certainly a plus. He had a serious look on his face, but gave me a small smile.
We all met in the middle of the field before I hop over so I could be next to Jacob. Bella obviously felt uncomfortable."You're not fighting? What did you pull a muscle or something?" Jacob asked Edward, confirming the news.
I look up at him, before looking at Bella as she told Jacob "He's doing it for me." and Jacob just shook his head.
"Whatever." he muttered before looking down at me. He almost had a good foot on me as I was 5'3. He smiled at me, before looking back at them, "Just tell me the plan." he seemed annoyed with them so I grabbed his hand he visually relaxed. However Edward didn't seem too happy.
He intertwined our fingers and Jasper turned to him, "This field will give us an advantage in battle. We need to lure the newborns with Bella's scent. But it needs to end here." he explained half of it before Bella took over.
"Edward and I are going on a campsite even if he carries me they'll still pick up on our scents." She told him, then Edward had to open his mouth. He couldn't go five minutes without an insult.
"Your stench however is revolting." Edward insults him, partly explaining, partly just being rude and possessive over Bella. I knew Bella and Jacob were childhood friends and how close they had been did make me a bit nervous and all but he wouldn't be my mate if I couldn't trust him.
"Dude you really don't want to start comparing stinks." Jacob told him, his voice blank of any emotion. I look to Edward, glaring partially at him in annoyance.
Bella cuts in, trying to be polite to Jacob, "What he means is that your scent will mask mine if you carry me." and Jacob looks down at me before back up at her.
"Done." He says, and I let go of his hand. I knew we had to test it. But I also felt a little insecure as I knew Bella had some feelings for Jacob, or she did in the past.
"This is not a good idea." Edward shook his head, looking at Jasper and then me, "How can you go along with this?" he kinda accused me.
"Because I apparently have more trust than you do. Shut up and let's get it over with." I snap at him, I see Jacob look at me with a bit of surprise and a bit of proudness.
"Edward." Jasper catches his attention, "They won't want to get anywhere near his.... Odor." he found a somewhat nice way to put it. Jacob just rolled his eyes and I sighed. Now I know how Bella felt somewhat. Why do they have to pick on Jacob so much.
"Okay let's just try it." Bella goes to Jacob, and I wanted to rip her away from him as he picked her up bridal style.
He had a serious look on his face, not amused or enjoyed by this. "Eau de wolf, comin' up." he said beginning to turn away.
"Run." Edward snapped and I shot him a look. Jacob began to run and I watched until he was out of sight.
There was a few minutes of silence before Jasper began to walk. Not wanting to be with Edward alone, I followed I knew Jacob was taking her to my house, he had a good range of knowledge with the forest, and knew which way was which.
"How are you feeling?" Jasper asked as we walked. We went slow, even for a human. We wanted them to get far ahead. See what the scent was, when they had a few minutes ahead of us.
It was all Jacob. "Don't you already know?" I asked, still looking ahead. He knew how I felt. He sent me a small smile, glancing at me before watching where he was walking.
"Yes but I thought it was be polite to ask." he said, his accent coming out a bit more. I give him a small smile.
"I feel better when he's around. It's weird. I've never felt anything like it. I feel comfortable around him, even though I met him yesterday." I confess and he nods, knowing exactly how it feels.
That was how Jasper felt around Alice. "It gets better than how it is now." he informs me and then we walked in silence. It wasn't weird or uncomfortable. Jasper was my brother, adopted or not, he would always be my big brother.
