~Chapter 8~

Jake's POV (changing it up a bit)
Victoria and Ireland were flying the horses while me and Deka slept. Well.....I really didn't sleep. I wasn't tired, so I thought about everything. My real reason for going on this quest: To get closer to Ireland. Everyone liked me, wanted me as a friend or boyfriend, but she didn't. I felt like the guy in Love and Other Drugs. Ireland rejected me. And that made me want her more. "Ireland?" I blurted out. "Yeah?" She asked weakly. "Um...you need to sleep. I fly." I said, disappointed I didn't I have the courage to tell her what I felt. "Ok." She said and we changed postions. I looked at her and my heart beated faster. She was..cute..no, wrong word..beautiful as she slept. Her face was relaxed, calm. Her soft gray eyes closed and black hair like a curtain down her face. I smiled, then I thought, ''Oh gods. I'm turning into freaking Edward Cullen.'' I sighed. What was I thinking? She'll never love me. But, I was going to fight for her. I wasn't going to give up.
