exactly a preview.. Previews will happen frequently though. Chapter
seven: I don't understand. Jacob's point of view:
Author: LJane
"Bear.." She mumbled. I chuckled, but frowned. She would just have to think bears the size of queen size beds were roaming around La Push. If only I could tell her..
As if Sam could remind me, without being here, my mind yelled at me.
Can't tell her. For the best. Emily's face..The reminder was enough. I didn't want to bring Bella into a world like this. My stomach churned with just the idea of what I would have to do.
I would have to say goodbye to Bella, one last time. For her safety.
Goodbye to my best friend. To the love of my life..
I was up for hours last night thinking only about her. I hadn't slept since two days ago when I found out what I was. About my duties as "The protector of La Push."
It would kill Bella to be away from me, just like it would kill me. I would feel better if she at least had somebody to keep with her, but even Quil and Embry couldn't stay her friend for long. It was only a matter of days left, Sam thinks.
Then she'd have nobody.
She had plenty of people at school who liked her. Who wouldn't mind being her friend. It's just a matter of her being okay enough to do it.
I set her down on the couch and sighed. Already missing her warm touch.
"Jacob.." She whispered in her sleep, rolling over. I could feel the sharp pain in my chest from her words. She had always said my name in her sleep, but it hurt so much more now.
I heard somebody running up to the house and I recognized the smell. Jared was here.
I kissed Bella on her forehead once before going outside quickly to see what he wanted.
I heard the light whoosh of air as Jared changed from wolf to human. That was the only way to communicate..
"Jake.." Jared hesitated. His face was torn. Pained. I panicked automatically picturing the worse.
"Where's Sam?! What happened?" I hungered for information and Jared sighed.
"Nothing happened to Sam. I'm here on his.. duties though." He said and I calmed down instantly. "It's about.. Bella."
"Bella? What about her? She's fine. Sleeping." I said, sleep making my voice tired. I knew where he was going with this, and fire burned through my veins. Hopefully I was wrong.
"Sam says you can't see her, Jacob." He said, confirming my suspicion. I growled loudly, a dangerous roar coming from my chest. My skin pulled over my knuckles and turned bone white. I was trembling, hard, like somebody was hitting me with a lightning bolt. Trying to keep control, I took three deep breaths.
"I. Don't. Care. What. Sam. Says." I spit, unable to say a full sentence I was so angry. Bella's quiet heart beat in the house, the only thing keeping me calm.
"Don't make this harder then it has to be." Was all Jared said.
Was he stupid? Did he think I would make this easy? Ha.
I rocked back and forth on my heel, waiting for him to talk. He just held his breath.
"Okay. If you don't mind, I think I'll go inside now. Bella's waking up soon." I said with a bored tone. It's not like he could stop me. I was bigger than him.
"Jake.." He hesitated, and I understood why immediately. I smelt him before I heard him. Sam was coming, fast. In human form.
"Jacob, I already told you. You are not aloud to see Bella. Now, I'll tell you again. You. Are. Not. To. See. Bella." He ordered, pushing through a bush. My legs buckled underneath the weight of the alpha's command. I could see the clear apology in Sam's dark eyes, but it meant nothing.
"Sam.." I tried, but gave up instantly. There was no point in trying to argue.
"You'll just end up hurting her, Jacob." He said sensing my distress.
"I won't even tell her about werewolves! I swear! I just want to see her, Sam.."
But Sam simply turned to walk away. "Come on. Let's run patrol."
"But Be-"
"I'll watch her." Jared cut in, stepping towards the house. Jared was aloud to see Bella and not me? As if Sam had heard my thoughts he sighed.
"I know it seems unfair, but you're too close to her. It's better to just make a clean cut. Simple, right down the middle."
My heart stayed behind with the house that night.

Bella's
point of view: We were running. No. He was running. I was
falling. I felt hot tears storm down my face. I shook my hand
towards him as the distance grew bigger. "Don't leave me,
dammit!" He snarled and leap towards me, landing by my feet. I
gasped but leaned down to touch him, make sure he was real. His body
burned under my touch. How am I on the ground? I fell, far..
How did I fall? Jacob! Jacob's injured, distorted body was
crumbled up beside me, curled into a ball. "D-Don't die."
I cried. The dark red blood from his skin was running down my shaky
fingers. "J-Jake!" I pushed my head down to him and kissed
his cheek, forehead, anywhere my lips could reach. "J-Jake?"
I squeaked, pulling away from him. He was so silent. Making no
noises. The only movement on him was the fur slowly crawling across
his freezing skin. A growl erupted from his chest. I
jumped away from him, trying to back up. Why was I backing away from
Jacob? He needed me.. So much blood.. The blood made me dizzy,
making black dots swim across my eyes. I swerved back and forth in
the spot and fell backwards onto my back. I whimpered again, just a
whisper. The water from the beach licked away at my back. The red
water. Red with Jacob's blood. Jacob was pure fur now. No. Not
Jacob. A monster with a bunch of fur. Like the bear.. But it wasn't a
bear. The large muzzle wasn't like a bears, nor was the tail. It was
a wolf the size of a bear. "Jake, you're scaring me.." I
warned scooting backwards some more into the bloody water. My head
kept yelling at me to run, but my heart told me otherwise. Jacob
wouldn't hurt you.. He's good.. Friend.. Best friend.. He
looked up at me with his black piercing eyes and I let out a blood
curdling scream.
"Bella!"
Jacob cried to me. I reached my hand closer to his, trying to reach,
but the little distance was enough. Even too far for Jacob's long
arms. "Bells!"
"P-please
be tough. Be strong. Be safe!" I whined and hugged him to me as
tightly as I could. His skin turned cold under my touch.
My head throbbed. Where was I? I looked around the room, and a guy was sitting beside me in a chair. In Jacob's chair. In his living room. I froze and tried to sit up, a throbbing pain hit my right hand so I laid back down on the floor.
"Who are you?" I asked and blushed automatically. Was it okay to ask? It had to be. He was staring at me so intently, like he wanted something. "Where's Jacob.. And Billy.."
"I'm Jared. Jacob's friend.. Jacob-" But he hesitated. Then sighed. "I'll tell you the truth, Bella. He can't see you anymore."
My breath caught in my throat.
"How do you know my name's Bella? And what do you mean he can't s-see me anymore?"
