outside reading #26

I have continued to read Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer. In the chapter that I read Bella and Edward are in the tent. There are bone chilling winds blowing outside and Bella is freezing to death. Edward knows what he has to do, but really wishes he could do something else. And so he tells Jacob to come in the tent so that he can warm Bella up. Bella doesn't like this idea either, but allows Jacob to get into her sleeping bag with her. Bella is soon warm, but Jacob stays there as she "sleeps". When Jacob and Edward think that Bella is asleep they decide to talk. Since Edward is always in Jacob's head and can always know what he is thinking, Jake wants to know what Edward is thinking for a little bit. Jake asks Edward questions that make him furious, but he answers anyways. Jake asks him what he would do if Bella chose him and that he loves Bella. Edward gets very irritated with his questions and with the fact that he can give Bella somethings that he can't, like heat. Jake is surprised when Edward says that he wouldn't kill him if Bella chose him, but Edward wouldn't want to make Bella unhappy. After the two talk about what it was like to be away from Bella, the two actually get along, except for the fact that they are natural enemies and are both in love with the same girl. When Bella is listening to their conversation, she reluctantly falls asleep.
