Maybe

I hated the after-effects of this scene and the way Bella acted like such a (insert horrible dirty name here). So I decided to write a fic about it! It is based on pages 330 and 331 of Eclipse, where Jake and Bella kiss (FINALLY, though not how I wanted it to be). Yes, I love Jacob much better than Edward (though I don't hate him). SO IF YOU DO NOT LIKE JACOB THEN DO NOT READ!
She started to say something, but I leaned in, taking her lips in mine. I held the back of her neck tightly so that she couldn't escape like I knew she would. She pushed against my face and chest, a light feeling against me. I wouldn't have done this if I knew I had no chance. But something inside of me kept telling me that maybe I did.
She was so blind to the fact that there were other people that she could be happy with besides the bloodsucker. He had been her world for so long, and she wouldn't let him go. Didn't she see how happy Emily was now, though she had been so reluctant at first to be with Sam? Didn't she realize that the way she touched me meant more than friendship?
She didn't want to acknowledge her feelings, that much I understood. I almost wish I had been imprinted with her, that way she didn't have a choice. But I wanted her to have a choice. I wanted her to want me more than him. I wanted her to look at me, kiss me, hug me the way she did all of those things to him. I knew that, deep down, she had feelings for me, no matter how wrong she thought that was.
She could be happy without him; was that so hard to understand? She didn't think she could function without him, and that made me feel sorry for her. I loved her so much, and so did he (though I didn't think he loved her as much as I did, or he wouldn't let her become like him), but the desperation she felt when she was with him, as though she would die if he didn't love her; it made me almost cry for her.
I would wait for her, wait for her to change her mind, hopefully. Maybe she would understand that being a vampire wasn't what was best. Maybe she would realize that I could make her just as happy as she was, if not more. We could kiss with so much intensity if she would just let it be. I could keep her warm when it was cold outside.
I could be there for her no matter what. I would never leave her. I could keep her safe. I would never have to troubled by the desire to bite her.
So I would wait, and hope that she changed her mind. Hope that she would make the right decision. Maybe she would. Maybe she could be truly happy. Maybe we could be together the way Sam and Emily were. Maybe.
Hope you enjoyed, please review!
