I raised my brow once Seth spoke up to Jake in that way. I was a little shocked, to be honest. But I was touched. I was touched that my brother would want to protect me like that, and I was touched that Jake told him right then and there that he would treat me right. Normally I might have been annoyed that they were talking about me right when I was standing there, but this was one exchange I couldn't find any fault with.
I gave Jake a small smile when he apologized, shrugging it off without a word. How could I not enjoy seeing the two of my most favorite men getting along and having my best interest in mind? It was a feeling I didn't know how to describe, one I'd never really felt before. But I suddenly felt... very cared and loved for. It was a very heady feeling.
But I sighed when Jake brought the leech back up. I didn't want to think about that, I'd rather if we could all just forget it and go hang out somewhere. But he was the Alpha, and he was my imprint, so of course he needed to be aware of the details.
"He didn't like the way I acted when we were in there telling them about us," I said blandly, shrugging again. I didn't want him to get angry on my behalf, I didn't want him to get pissed off enough to go start a fight or something. If anyone was going to fight Edward for being a jackass, I would have preferred that it was me, though I know Jake would never let that actually happen. "He basically told me to stay away from Bella, or if I didn't, he'd take me down." I scoffed. It was ridiculous now that I thought back on it. What a gigantic prick. Even if he wasn't a friggin leech, I still couldn't see how any girl would be into that bastard.
"Can you believe that? He's an ass. It took everything within me not to phase."
