For exactly two weeks, Jacob stayed with the Swans and he brought a little more warmth into the house, eating breakfast together, taking care of the housework, dropping Bella off at school, watching movies with her and Charlie or playing board games with them.
They were simple things that strengthened the bonds in a family but that Charlie and his daughter never had the time to do because of Bella's obsession with Edward .
Charlie was happy to be so close to his daughter and was happy to have Jacob with him, it was like having an older son at home not only because of Jacob's attitude towards him but especially towards Bella that he literally treated him like his little sister even though he was only 16 years old despite his great maturity.
Even though she still dreamed of Edward, the hole in her chest had started to close because Jacob was like the sun to her to the point where she started to develop strong feelings for him and that was normal since He was just perfect, except he didn't treat her like he used to.
For Jacob, it was the last day there, he had honored his promise to Charlie and a good guest knew when to leave.
While in the night he was sleeping on his couch, Bella started to stir again in his and as usual, he was already here and he calmed her down.
Once again, she hugged him and he reassured her but seeing that Bella couldn't fall asleep again he sighed and asked her to wait before going down and coming back with a log of wood and a knife.
Bella out of curiosity wanted to know what he was doing but he asked her to stay in the warm bed and wait for him to finish his gift while he started to cut the wood through the window .
Bella: Jacob, why are you doing this?
Jacob: It's just a sculpture and it's to help you stop your nightmares.
Bella: No...I'm not talking about that...I mean all that.
Jacob: Charlie needed help, you were at rock bottom and I'm your friend right?
Bella: Is that why you act like a big brother to me?
Jacob: Do you not like it ? Sometimes people need friends other times they need a brother or sister but in both cases they need a strong dose of love. I was in love with you once upon a time and things seemed confusing but I learned to love myself more and everything is better for me.
Bella: So...your feelings for me are gone.
Jacob: I realized that I didn't stand a chance against Edward in your heart so I put his feelings away in my mind to be your friend and nothing more. That's what you wanted, right? You knew I was in love with you but it wasn't reciprocated so I just accepted it.
Bella: Jacob I-(interrupted)
Jacob: It's okay Bella, I didn't suffer long. I don't know why the Cullens left like that but if Edward love you then he'll definitely come back.
Bella: How can you be so sure?
"I saw the look in his eyes the day I found you surrounded by those guys in that alley, it was like he could kill for you. He himself won't be able to stand being away from you Bella, I don't really love him but I at least know that he loves you as stubbornly as you love him and I can swear to you that he will come back if you don't forget it. » he turned to Bella and handed her a beautiful wooden sculpture of Edward's bust and the details were extremely precise.
When Bella saw her gift her breath caught before she took it and started crying and Jacob pulled her into his arms where she cried even harder.
Jacob: Let it go Bella, cry and let your sadness out. I'll always be there for you but Charlie too, your father needs to help you, he needs you to be his daughter but you have put distance between you and Charlie. A daughter should seek comfort from her father.
Bella: I'm sorry...
Jacob: It's going to be okay now go to sleep, you have school tomorrow. I'm going to drop you off at school and then I'm going back to the reservation.
Bella: ALREADY?! BUT-(Interrupted)
Jacob: I have a lot to do there and I've already been away for too long. You and Charlie need to be alone.
Bella: Jacob, I'm taking it from you…
Jacob: It's not like I'm going to the ends of the earth, you know the way to the reserve but next month I'll be pretty busy. Try to be cool with Charlie, okay?
She nodded gently and he left.
The next day, Jacob dropped Bella off at her school before leaving, she was upset but he knew she would get over it. Jacob first went to his work before returning to the reservation for a few days.
Being a little tired of Forks and seeing the same faces all the time, he needed a little novelty so one day he took his motorcycle and went to Seattle where he was going to enjoy some of his money and of one of his abilities that until then, he had not yet put to good use.
Arriving in town, Jacob inquired about going to the nearest hotel and once at reception, he looked at the receptionist and smiled.
Receptionist: Hello sir, North Pride Hotel welcomes you. Would you like a room in our premises?
Jacob: Thank you, yes I would like a room please.
Receptionist: Very good, do you have identification and a bank card?
"You don't really need me to give you all that, the room and all the services will be reserved for me for free." » He said as his eyes became a little brighter to put the woman under a form of hypnosis.
"Yes, I don't really need all that and it will all be free to you." She responded with a smile before giving him what he needed for his room, one of the best rooms in this hotel in fact.
Jacob had a huge smirk on his lips, he knew he could do this but had never tested it on anyone and after the first try he knew his life as a human would be much easier to lead.
The room was large, clean and very luxurious for the time, there were still some good things in 2006.
Not wanting to worry his father, he called him to tell him that he had gone to northern Alaska for a short time where he would be permanently in his wolf skin and hunting to be in tune with him- even.
Billy was understanding, thinking that perhaps it was a need for him as a wolf warrior on some sort of pilgrimage.
Seattle was big, much, much bigger than Forks and there was so much to see.
On the second day of his arrival in town when it was dark, Jacob walked through the alleys of an unfamiliar neighborhood where he heard whispers that interested him.
"We have to increase the sales rates of our merchandise, the boss is not really happy with your sales over the last two weeks. Only 98,000 sales in two different cities is clearly not enough," an unknown person said.
"Dwight you have to understand us, we are really being stepped on by the meth deal, cocaine is becoming a little too expensive for people. » the other replied with supplication.
"Then just try harder, that's all. Where is the money ?"
"The briefcase is in the car, we really have to-(interrupted)" he had not even finished his sentence when an extremely fast shadow carried him away in front of his friend who, in shock, said nothing before pulling out a gun while trembling.
Dwight: WHO'S THERE??!!
*silence*
He wanted to speak again before the same shadow came and snatched the weapon from his hand without him being able to do anything and before he could even scream, Jacob knocked him out like his friend who was a little further away.
"Real drug dealers !! These people are destroying lives." He said before heading towards one of the cars where he saw a briefcase on the back seat, it had a strong smell of banknotes so he took it with him before leaving, this Jacob was definitely different from the original.
[The entities]
Death : Honestly I don't know if you made this character better or if you ruined him. It even has the power of hypnosis!
Eternity: It depends on the point of view I think. I think he simply gave him a life that didn't revolve around Bella.
Death: Not wrong.
Reality :…
