12 Days of Fictional Boyfriends: Day 7

Thursday, December 20, 2012

We LOVE LOVE LOVE our Fictional Boyfriends and we thought it would be nice to do a "12 days of Fictional Boyfriends". It is like the "12 Days of Christmas" but with hot men!

I had to...because none of the other Book Nerds will....

JACOB BLACK!

First, we swoon:

Okay, breathing yet?!?! I know! It was hard to choose just one picture, I assure you!! Also, I just want to point out this that Google's "Related Searches" list for when you Google "Jacob Black" includes "jacob black new moon," "jacob black shirtless," "jacob black twilight," and "jacob black shirt off." LOL.

But, alas, there's more to Jacob that just complete and utter hotness, so let's showcase his awesome personality via some great quotes from and about the series:

Jacob, to Bella
"It's just that, I know how you're unhappy a lot. And, maybe it doesn't help anything, but I wanted you to know that I'm always here. I won't ever let you down — I promise that you can always count on me. Wow, that does sound corny. But you know that, right? That I would never, ever hurt you?" (New Moon)

"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..." (Eclipse)

Jacob, on imprinting
“It’s not like love at first sight, really. It’s more like… gravity moves. When you see her, suddenly it’s not the earth holding you here anymore. She does. And nothing matters more than her. And you would do anything for her, be anything for her… You become whatever she needs you to be, whether that’s a protector, or a lover, or a friend, or a brother.” (New Moon)

Bella, to Jacob:
"I used to think of you that way, you know. Like the sun. My personal sun. You balanced out the clouds nicely for me." (Eclipse)

Stephenie Meyer, on Bella and Jacob's relationship:
"Bella actually falls in love with Jacob in New Moon. It's understandable why this fact didn't occur to her: Bella had fallen in love only one other time, and it was a very sudden, dramatic, sweep-you-off-your-feet, change-your-world, magical, passionate, all-consuming thing. She didn't recognize the much more subtle falling-in-love she experienced with Jacob. She was only aware that she preferred being with him over everyone else, that he was constantly on her mind, and that his happiness was essential to her own. She also enjoyed being physically close to him in a way that she didn't with her other friends. But it took her a while to add up all the pieces."

*sighs* I just love him!!
Okay, where are my Team Jacob pack mates?!?!
