“I don't have any leeches on my speed dial." — Jacob Black”

“I pushed my legs faster, letting Jacob Black disappear behind me.”

“So, how come Jacob Black gets togive you a gift and I don't? Because I have nothingto give back to you. Bella, you give me everythingjust by breathing.”

“Let's face it, I'm hotter than you." -Jacob Black”

“If the silence in my head lasted, I would never go back. I wouldn’t be the first one to choose this form over the other. Maybe, if I ran far enough away, I would never have to hear again… I pushed my legs faster, letting Jacob Black disappear behind me.”

“But I don't count that as a kiss, Jacob. I think of it more as an assault.""Ouch! That's cold.”

“Hey Jacob!" I felt an unfamiliar surge of enthusiasm at his smile. I realized that I was pleased to see him. This knowledge surprised me.I smiled back, and something clicked silently into place, like two corresponding puzzle pieces. I'd forgotten how much I really liked Jacob Black.”
