I just feel like the way Bella and Jacob’s relationship turned into this angsty, tension-filled “will-we-or-won’t-we” after he became a werewolf is…not how it should have played out. Because the situation you have here is:
Girl who’s used to having to play the parent role
-and-
16-year-old boy with little to no impulse control suddenly realizing he’s basically indestructible
“This is AWESOME!!”
“Jake, oh my God, get down -”
“watch me backflip off this cliff Bells, I can totally stick the landing!”
“Jake-”
“I’m gonna ride my motorcycle off a mountain, I’m gonna bench press a tractor, I’m gonna FIGHT AN ENTIRE SHARK”
“JACOB!!!”
