BLACK SWAN

"A black swan is a large-impact, hard-to-predict, and rare event beyond the realm of normal expectations. Almost all consequential events in history come from the unexpected—while humans convince themselves that these events are explainable in hindsight."

HONORARYSHIPPERS

"First off, I love Jacob & Bella because it came so naturally for them, and the way they fell in love with each other is very realistic. I believe they are soulmates even in the world of vampires and werewolves. And "People who are meant to be together, always find their way in the end." I believe that is true and that Bella & Jacob will somehow find their way to each other in the end."

-lafs1684

"I love Jacob and Bella for many reasons but the main one is that they both really care about one another. Jacob may be a werewolf but Bella doesn't mind. She was scared for him when she thought he would die and kissed him to persuade him not to endanger himself. He stayed to fight for her even after Edward took her away. She ran away from Edward to see him whenever she had the chance. She wasn't scared of seeing Jacob as a werewolf like she was with seeing Edward as a vampire, and because he is her air and her sun and she saw her whole life with him."

-loveloveme

"I love Jacob and Bella because they are real. Their realtionship is relatable and they have this understanding of each other that can't be described. They don't have to ask questions, they just know who the other person is. They love the person for who they are entirely and really mean the world to each other. You can see them at their happiest when they are together, laughing and just being themselves. When they hug, it is like they never want to let go. You can feel their chemistry in the book. Jacob is her personal sun, and they have a relationship that transcends labels and names - they are just Jake and Bells."

HE SAID/SHE SAID

by Pure.Magic

All I caught was that one of the girls was also named Jessica, and the boy who noticed me was named Jacob.

"I’m Jacob Black. You bought my dad’s truck."

But I really did like Jacob. He was someone I could easily be friends with.

"Can you believe my dad paid me twenty bucks to come to your prom?"

"He said to tell you, no, to warn you, that — and this is his plural, not mine, ‘We’ll be watching.’"

I’d forgotten how much I really liked Jacob Black.

"Wait a sec—are you legal yet?"

Jacob was simply a perpetually happy person, and he carried that happiness with him like an aura, sharing it with whoever was near him. Like an earthbound sun, whenever someone was within his gravitational pull, Jacob warmed them. It was natural, a part of who he was. No wonder I was so eager to see him.

"I believe that… we have a date."

Jacob was waiting for me. My chest seemed to relax as soon as I saw him, making it easier to breathe.

"Jacob, you are absolutely, without a doubt, the most talented and wonderful person I know. You get ten years for this one."

"Bears don’t want to eat people. We don’t taste that good. Of course, you might be an exception. I bet you’d taste good."

"So are you going to be my Valentine? Since you didn’t get me a fifty-cent box of candy, it’s the least you can do."

"I told him you were planning to corrupt my youthful innocence."

He was my best friend. I would always love him, and it would never, ever be enough.

"As long as you like me the best. And you think I’m good-looking—sort of. I’m prepared to be annoyingly persistent."

"I’m not good enough to be your friend anymore, or anything else. I’m not what I was before. I’m not good."

There was nothing left in my life at this point that was more important than Jacob Black.

"Who’s afraid of the big, bad wolf?"

"How do you know me so well, Jacob? Sometimes it’s like you can read my mind."

"We’re a pretty messed-up pair, aren’t we? Neither one of us can hold our shape together right."

"Look, do you mind saving the stupid stuff for when I’m around? I won’t be able to concentrate if I think you’re jumping off cliffs behind my back."

Like we were connected, the echo of his pain twisted inside me. His pain, my pain.

I knew that last glimpse of his face would haunt me until I saw him smile again.

"I think I might have been wrong before, you know, about not being able to be friends. Maybe we could manage it, on my side of the line. Come see me."

As we walked, I felt myself settling into another version of myself, the self I had been with Jacob. A little younger, a little less responsible. Someone who might, on occasion, do something really stupid for no good reason.

Jacob had become a part of me, and there was no changing that now.

"I miss you every day, Bella. It’s not the same without you."

"Did you seriously just stamp your foot? I thought girls only did that on TV."

"But I’ll never see anyone else, Bella. I only see you. Even when I close my eyes and try to see something else."

"Does my being half-naked bother you?"

"What’s it like — having a werewolf for a best friend?"

"Hey, it’s the least I can do — I offered eternal servitude, remember. I’m your slave for life."

"I’m in love with you, Bella. Bella, I love you. And I want you to pick me instead of him. I know you don’t feel that way, but I need the truth out there so that you know your options. I wouldn’t want a miscommunication to stand in our way."

"You love me, too. Not the same way, I know. But he’s not your whole life, either. Not anymore. Maybe he was once, but he left. And now he’s just going to have to deal with the consequence of that choice — me."

While he slept, every trace of defensiveness and bitterness disappeared and suddenly he was the boy who had been my very best friend before all the werewolf nonsense had gotten in the way. He looked so much younger. He looked like my Jacob.

"You could kiss me, for example. I don’t mind if you want to use me to experiment."

Jacob was right. He’d been right all along. He was more than just my friend. That’s why it was so impossible to tell him goodbye — because I was in love with him. Too. I loved him, much more than I should, and yet, still nowhere near enough. I was in love with him, but it was not enough to change anything; it was only enough to hurt us both more. To hurt him worse than I ever had.

It made no difference that Jacob was not human when he cried out. I needed no translation.

"I’m exactly right for you, Bella. It would have been effortless for us — comfortable, easy as breathing. I was the natural path your life would have taken… If the world was the way it was supposed to be, if there were no monsters and no magic…"

"I would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun."

"How can we be friends, when we love each other like this?"

"I probably won’t think she’s good enough for you. I wonder how jealous I’ll be."

"I’ll always be waiting in the wings, Bella. You’ll always have that spare option if you want it."
