CHAPTER THIRTEEN || THIS ISNT MONO

"Hey, Jake... It's Violet. Sorry for leaving another message." Violet paced her bedroom, her heart racing with each soft pat against the window that came with the pouring rain outside as she held her phone to her ear for the fourth time only to reach Jacob's Answering machine.

"But Bella told me you have Mono, And your dad won't let us Visit... I'm sorry if what I said at the movie theatre upset you Jake, I was just being honest.. but I want to know you're okay. Call me?... Please" she continued the worry she had for Jacob slowly turning into anger as she saw how his absence was affecting not only herself but Bella too.

Ending the call she threw her phone onto her bed with an exaggerated sigh. Since Jake had disappeared her emotions had shifted back to their original agonising ways. She could've felt anything, Anger, Sadness, Even Fierce fury but it still would've ended in nothing. Whatever anger flooded her veins, About Matteo Leaving, Her fathers absence as he remained fixated on the loss of Sarah Lewis almost forgetting his children in the process. That anger was prominent in Violets veins but The fear of ruining the relationships she had left rattled her bones. The fear of losing the only people she had outweighed her anger filled desires.

her eyes scanning her room as an Idea sprouted within her mind. Her plans changed in seconds as she rushed toward her closet. Swinging open the door she pulled out a hoodie to pull over her body, She had to know.

Looking in the mirror she took a deep breath pushing her anxiety back into whatever deep dark corners of her soul it originated from before glancing down at the necklace Allison had given her when she'd moved. Stiles would do the same... Violet took a breath grabbing her phone from her bed before making a beeline straight for the door.

"Matt! Where's the car key?! I'm going to Bellas" She yelled to her brother's room as she walked out of her room into the corridor, an internal battle happening in her mind as she fought against her anxiety.

"On the table downstairs!" Matteo shouted from his room. Violet nodded to herself rushing done the stairs. The fear of the unknown haunted her. But she had to know. She had to know everything.

******

Violet's thumb's frantically tapped against the steering wheel the pace almost matching the violent pumping of her heart as Anxiety consumed her Chest. Her foot pressed on the break as she pulled up at the Rez. She had to know what she had done wrong, If Jacob wasn't supernatural she needed to know what she had done to ruin yet another relationship.

Her wide eyes fell on a boy, Her chest constricted as she saw him walking shirtless. His toned body glistened in the rain, Almost accentuating the Valleys that carved his god-like body. Violets eyes scanned his body in disbelief yet as realisation rushed through her veins her blood ran Cold. Jacob Black.

Violet got out the car, Slamming the door closed behind her as the cold breeze sent a shiver down her spine, Icy droplets of water falling onto her body that was barely protected by the thin jacket covering her shoulders.

Anger surged through her veins as she saw the tattoo that covered the skin of Jacobs shoulder, His new haircut. He wasn't sick. He'd never been sick. He'd just dropped her like she was nothing, Like Bella was nothing. Violets skin burnt with Adrenaline, Jacob had already ruined their friendship. She was allowed to be angry. Or at least that's what she told herself.

She charged over to him, Anger radiating from her as she shivered in the cold rain, Her boot-clad feet causing soft splashes from the water pooling in the grass as she called out his name; "Jacob"

He ignored her and Kept walking, His actions chipping away at the girl's fragile heart. People walking away, Leaving her had been a far too common occurrence in Violets life.

"Hey! Jake fucking stop!" Violet urged anger lacing her voice as her stride grew, Approaching him faster as he came to a halt his back to her.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" She scoffed coming to a stop in-front of him as he slowly turned to face her, She could barely hear her own voice over the rough pattering of rain.

"You cut your hair?? and got a damn tattoo?!" Violet scoffed in disbelief taking in his new appearance, His eyes that had once lightened her view on forks, His eyes that had resembled October, the Dark oak trees and flecks of golden leaves now darker resembling nothing but the deep dark pit that was Violets heart.

"Violet" Jake warned. His voice had even Changed. It was Colder. Sterner. Only fuelling Violets anger as she stared up at him fighting off the cold teeth chattering she could feel creeping up on her.

"I thought you were too sick to come outside?! Or pick up the fucking phone?" Violet exclaimed a rush of emotions exploding through her veins. Emotions that weren't only linked to Jacob, But her Family...

"Go away." Jacob warned bluntly. His dark eyes staring down at her as rain drops slipped down his face, Down his body.

"No. What?— what the hell happened? I deserve an explanation." Violet urged Her voice shuddered in frustration as she folded her arms over her chest trying to conserve her warmth while waiting for Jacob to Answer.

Yet he stared at her blankly, No answer. Before he went to walk away. Violet's hand grabbing his arm stopping his body from turning away from her as she seethed in anger barely noticing the heat that radiated from his body as her hand gripped his arm.

"What the fuc- Jake is this Sam? Did he do something to you? Hurt you??" Violet exclaimed her eyes glossing over as memories Flashed in her mind, Memories of her past. Memories she wished she could forget.

She desperately wanted to just ask. Ask if he'd changed. If Sam had Changed him. But she couldn't. Protecting Matteo's secret was still her priority. And it always would be.

"Sam's trying to help me... Don't blame him" Jacob Corrected his tone almost threatening As if Violet had strikes a nerve even just mentioning Sam's name. Don't blame him? Who else was she supposed to blame? Jacob had expressed his concern about Sam before. she couldn't put anymore blame on herself. she couldn't do it.

"If you want someone to blame? How about those filthy Pale faces your cousin Loves?" Violet's Heart dropped as her lips parted. A sudden panic exploding through her veins. That was all she needed, The Cullens were Vampires. Every ounce of speculation in her body disappeared as all the research she'd been doing became a reality.

"What? Jake, I don't know what you're talking about?" Violet shook her head in disbelief needing More information then just that. She needed to know more.

"You know Exactly what i'm talking about. Ask your brother, I know exactly what he is too" Anxiety burnt Violets veins, Her skin was on fire as anxious nausea pooled in her stomach.

"You and Bella have been Lying to everyone. each other? Charlie??  Bella  doesn't even know about Matt does she... or what happened to your mom?!  But you can't lie to me. Not anymore Violet." Jacobs Jaw clenching as He crushed whatever sense of normalcy Violet had been rebuilding for months into dust. She stood staring up at him as his words chipped away at her heart, The pouring rain making the few stray tears that slipped down her cheeks at the mention of her mother blend in with the raindrops dripping down her cheeks.

"Jacob!"
"Come on Jake"

Unfamiliar Voices invaded Violets ears as Sam and his Boys Urged Jacob to follow them from the edge of the forest about 20 yards from them. Violet's eyes hadn't shifted from Jacobs as she processed his words... She'd trusted him, She'd started to Like him.

"Look Violet. We can't be friends anymore." Violet shook her head the aching of her heart becoming too much for a young girl to bare as the despair in her eyes grew stronger.

"i know what i said at the Movie theatre was Harsh. But with my mom- And Moving here, Matteo and My dad leaving i just— i didn't think it was the right timing... I didn't mean to hurt you Jake, It kills me that i did-" Jacob cut her off as she tried to explain herself fully.

"It's not you-" He barely got to finish his sentence before Violet scoffed shaking her head with a pained smile of disbelief interrupting him.

"it's not you, it's me right? I've heard that before. Really? Couldn't come up with something better than that?!" Violet seethed in disbelief, The look on Jacobs face changing as if the Conversation in itself was hurting him more than he was letting on.

"it's true. It is me. I'm not— Good. I used to be. a good kid, Not anymore. This doesn't even matter. This is Over." Jacob shook his head his eyes darkening as he noticed the pained expression on Violets face.

"If you walk away from me Jacob i swear to fucking god- Jake i will never speak to you again." She couldn't deal with another dead end, Another person leaving without a goodbye, Without an explanation.

"Good. I promised i wouldn't hurt you Violet. and this is me keeping that promise. Now go home. and don't come back" Jakes voice grew sterner with each word that escaped his lips, His words Clawing at Violets heart as she shook her head.

"Jacob." His name slipped past her lips, Her voice barely audible as he rushed off. turning away and running into the forest. Violets mind rushed with thoughts maybe she really didn't matter to anyone, Maybe she was just so easy to leave behind it didn't matter if she was alive or not.
