This was originally a one shot, but I was inspired to make it longer. A/U Takes place at the start of the Twilight Series when Bella first arrives in Forks. I hope you enjoy! I own nothing of these characters.

~Does contain adult content~

Author's Note: Told both in Bella's & Jacob's POV. This is their first meeting after Bella moves back to Forks.

Bella's POV

I looked around my room. It hadn't changed a bit since I'd been here last. Charlie wasn't big on change. I figured I would put a few changes in place over time.

A loud rumbling sound approached outside. I went to the window to investigate. I saw Charlie talking to a man in a wheelchair. He looked a bit familiar, but the young guy with him was a puzzler. I figured I'd better be sociable. I wasn't big on these sort of things, but I couldn't avoid people for long, this wasa small town after all.

I stepped out into the damp air, something I would have to get used to. Charlie introduced the man I'd recognized as Billy Black. I politely shook his hand as he embarrassed Charlie by telling me that he hadn't shut up about my impending arrival. I couldn't help chuckling at this. Charlie never really shared his feelings, especially enthusiasm. Billy then began teasing him further and they moved into the street, as if about to enter a fighting ring or something. I laughed then...I actually felt more comfortable here than I thought I would.

Jacob's POV

I watched her laugh at our dads and knew right away that I wanted to know her better. Her cheeks had a slight blush when she laughed and I hoped that one day I could make her blush. I approached her, not sure what to say exactly. "Hi. I'm Jacob. We used to make mud pies when we were little". Why did I just say that? What a dork!"Yeah, I remember" she replied. She was probably just being polite. She at least didn't laugh at me. Her dad came over and told her about her truck. She seemed excited and asked me to show it to her. We hopped into the cab and I couldn't help noticing that she smelled good...like strawberries and vanilla. Hopefully, I could sit by her to watch the game later.

Bella's POV

Sitting beside him in my truck, I couldn't help noticing how nervous I was. Heat seemed to radiate off of him and I wished we were sitting even closer. Why was I nervous? It was probably because he was really hot. His skin was a beautiful copper color and his hair looked like silk. But mostly it was his smile. He could light up the dark with that brilliant, perfect smile of his. "Do you want a ride to school?" I asked, hoping he didn't hear my voice crack. "Oh, well...I go to school on the reservation. But thanks for the offer" he smiled. "Right. That's too bad" I said. I felt my cheeks get a bit hot. Great, I'm blushing like a twelve year old!

Jacob's POV

She blushed. Wow! I was elated to see that because I was pretty sure I had caused it. I tried not to stare too much, but damn she was beautiful. I pushed a dirty thought from my mind; no need to be a pervert, Jake...you just met her. It was time to go in now and I hated to leave her side. I figured I would try to sit by her again if I could.

Bella's POV

Inside the house, we all ate the roast I had made earlier. Everyone seemed to enjoy my cooking and we made small talk. Billy had asked me a little about Phoenix and I noticed Jacob staring at me a few times. The thought of him coming over more often excited me. I wondered if he would want to.

After dinner I cleared the dishes and got to work cleaning the kitchen. Billy and Charlie excused themselves to watch the game, but Jacob stayed to help me. I thought he was really sweet so I gave him the task of drying dishes while I washed.

He came over to the sink and pulled his hair back with a rubberband he'd retrieved from his pocket. I tried not to stare at his now-exposed neck and jawbone. He was a bit younger than me, but his features were already strong and pronounced. At this angle, he actually looked older than me. "What?" he asked, pulling me from my trance. "Nothing" I blushed. Damn! He caught me staring like some perv!A dish slipped from my hand and he snagged it with little effort, brushing my hand as he returned it to me. Our eyes locked then and I felt my heart skip a beat. He gave me a dazzling smile and I melted. I knew I couldn't wait to touch him again.

Jacob's POV

After the dishes were all put away I helped Bella by taking out the trash. When our hands had touched, I'd felt a jolt of electricity and was still reeling from it. Our dads were completely engrossed in the game and I had no desire to watch it. I just wanted to be with Bella. "You want to go listen to music? she asked. "In your room?" I gulped, feeling a bit nervous now. "Yeah" she smiled. Absolutely!I wanted to shout, but settled with a "sure" to sound cooler. She told Charlie, who barely seemed to notice, and we climbed the stairs to her bedroom.

Bella's POV

I shut the door behind me. I wasn't sure what the rules were on this since I'd never had a guy in my room before. I fumbled through my cd collection and put on a song. I kept it low because I wasn't sure how loud to make it...again, first time having a guy in my room. I felt nervous again when I turned to find him sitting on the end of my bed. I slowly crossed the room and sat beside him. I sat close enough to feel his warmth and this time, I could smell him too. His scent was a mixture of trees and salt, like from the sea, and it was intoxicating.

Jacob's POV

She sat on the bed next to me. We were dangerously close this time. I could breathe her in again...I could get used to this. Her hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall and I could have buried my face in it. I wanted to touch her again, but I wasn't sure if I should. She asked if I liked the song playing, but I hadn't even noticed the music. "Sure, sure" I managed to mumble as her hand grazed mine. I felt the electricity again. Surely she felt it too as I scooted an inch closer to her. Our legs were touching now as we sat there, our eyes locked.

Bella's POV

What was I doing? I barely knew this guy, yet all I could think of was what it would be like to kiss him. I couldn't take my eyes off of him. He was smoldering and it felt as if he could see into my soul. His eyes were deep and intense...I could definitely lose myself in them. I had to break the silence or I would go crazy! What could I say to him that wouldn't sound stupid? "Jacob" I whispered. A whisper was all I could manage at this point. "Do you...have a...a girlfriend?" I was so nervous that I thought I might faint. I looked down at my shaky hands as I waited for the answer. Please say no.

Jacob's POV

My jaw dropped a little at the question she had just asked me. Did this mean she liked me? I had to be smooth...this girl was older than me. She'd no doubt had at least one boyfriend before. I put my hand under her chin and gently tilted her head so I could see her eyes. "No, I don't have a girlfriend. "Do you have a boyfriend?" I said. Please say no. "No. I actually have never had one" she answered. "Really?" was all I could say.

Bella's POV

Why was he so surprised by that? I had to know. "Why do you say it like that?" I inquired. He blushed and caught my chin in his warm hand. "Because...you're so beautiful" he said, looking at me like no one ever had. He thinks I'm beautiful...this revelation flattered me so much that the heat rose to my cheeks again. This guy's ability to make me blush is uncanny!"Thank you" I finally managed and gently kissed his cheek. He was so warm. My heart skipped another beat.

Jacob's POV

Her kiss was so light, yet it still caused my heart to flutter. I gazed into her eyes again. I wanted to kiss her so bad but I was nervous. Would she let me? I had to at least try, right?I leaned in, my eyes still locked with hers. She looked at me longingly and licked her lips. I knew then that she wanted me to kiss her. She leaned in, closing the distance. I kissed her lightly, still testing my boundaries.

Bella's POV

My breath caught a little as his lips touched mine. They were firm, yet soft, and he knew just what to do with them. I parted my lips and allowed his tongue to brush mine. He tasted so good. I moaned as he deepened the kiss. He responded, clutching a fist full of my hair. I grabbed some of his, pulling him as close to me as I could. His chest pressed against mine and I felt his heat.

Suddenly, I heard Charlie downstairs. "Bella!" he called out. "Time for Billy and Jacob to head home". We kept kissing a moment longer before we finally parted, both of us panting breathlessly. "I better go" Jacob breathed. "When will you come back?" I asked, still a bit out of breath. "How about Friday...will you go to the movies with me?" he asked, smiling brightly. "Absolutely" I amost shouted. "Until then..." he leaned down, kissing me softly. I studied his entire body as he walked out of my room. Friday wouldn't come fast enough.
