Chapter Five

    We both ran out of breath eventually and he pulled his lips from mine, resting them on my neck.
I was gasping, my mind still whirling uncontrollably.
“ Wow.”
I could feel his lips pull up into a smile.
“ Yeah I know.” His voice was slightly muffled by my neck and hair. His lips were distracting as he kissed up my neck.
“ Jake…” I trailed off, the sight of him kissing Renesmee still fresh in my mind. He sighed and pulled away, straightening to his full height.
“ Will you let me explain?” His chocolate eyes were sad, holding me captive.
“ Yeah.” I finally answered.
“ Good.” He answered and before I could protest, he swooped me up into his arms and cradled me like a baby.
“ Jake!” I protested and tried to struggle out of his warm arms. I managed to wiggle enough that he was slightly off balance and we both fell to the soft ground laughing. He cushioned my fall and leaned over me, bracing himself with one arm.
“ Mika.” His voice was warm and I felt like I was melting.
“ Hmm?” I had my eyes closed, savoring his closeness.
“ I really do love you. And only you. There’s no one else for me.”
My eyes flashed open at the serenity of his voice.
I searched his eyes, trying to read their depths.
“ I think I love you too…as crazy as it seems since I‘ve only known you for two days.” I answered and laughed as his face completely lit up.
“ Can I explain about Nessie kissing me?”
My joy faded but I knew we had to talk about this.
“ Yeah. I would appreciate that.”
“ What you said earlier, about me not stopping her kissing me? You’re forgetting that she’s half vamp. She’s as strong as a full vamp. I really was trying to get her to stop but she had a death grip on me. She’s been waiting for years to kiss me and thought she had to step up her game since you are with me.” He smiled and traced his thumb over my lips.
I tried not to be distracted.
“ Should I leave? I don’t want to cause problems between everyone. Renesmee seems like she’s used to getting what she wants.” I said and frowned, thinking about her perfect body and face. How could Jacob like me more than her.
“ We were meant to be.” He leaned down and whispered in my ear. His hott breath tickled my ear. His nose traced across my cheek until his lips hovered over mine.
“ Don’t worry about Nessie. She won’t be a problem.” He added just before he kissed me again. I was lost as soon as his tongue traced over my bottom lip. I sighed and pulled him closer. This was too good to be true. I was so caught up in kissing him I didn’t notice the rest of the pack surround us. When Quil whined, I gasped and sat up, pushing Jacob off of me. Jacob looked a little upset that we had been interrupted.
“ They’ve just come to tell us we need to get back.” Jacob mumbled as he pulled me up to stand beside him. I tried to smooth my messed up hair.
“ You look beautiful.” Jacob purred into my ear.
I laughed softly. Jacob snuck one more quick kiss in. Well, he tried to make it quick. Kissing him was like kissing an electrical outlet. My body reacted as soon as our lips met. I tangled my fingers into his hair yet again and pulled him closer.
This time it was Seth who whined.
“ Come on.” Jacob broke the kiss but rested his forehead against mine.
“ We need to get back.”
I looked around and for the first time it was pitch black out. Hmm…time flies when your having fun. My heart jumped as Jacob grabbed my hand and pulled me after the disappearing wolves. I felt like I could fly, I was so happy. Jacob had just professed his love to me and I felt like I was the luckiest girl on Earth. It wasn’t until a few minutes later my heart dropped as I remember something. I had promised to not get involved anymore with him. Making out with him definatly counted as getting involved. My heart sunk just a little bit more. I wanted anything but to break Jacob’s heart; the person I loved, and probably the only person I would ever love. How could I leave when it was time to move again?
