Jacob was completely devastated when he got the invitation letter to Edward and Bella's wedding. I don't know why they invited him knowing he's in love with her. Jacob still wants to go to the wedding though, he's a complete idiot. The rest of us are going to go to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid. Although he is the definition of stupid. 

Sam is in front while the rest of us are slightly behind. We're all running through the forest towards the wedding. The Cullen's have hidden clothes in the trees for us knowing we prefer to run than drive. Stopping where the clothes have been hidden we each take our pair of clothes and move behind different trees to shift back. 

Shifting back I pull out a long black dress. Putting it on, it fits me perfectly. Stepping out from behind the trees I immediately hear a wolf whistle and I turn to see Paul staring at me. "Looking good." He comments. 

Blushing, we all come out of the trees and begin to walk to the front yard where the wedding is being held. I immediately spot Jasper who's already staring at me. 

Smiling, he begins to walk over to me and wraps his arm around my shoulder. "You look beautiful darling." A slight southern accent encases his voice. 

"Thank you, you don't look too bad yourself." We take our seats in the back, preferring to sit away from all of the humans. I can't keep my eyes off of my mate, I'm barely hearing what is being said at the front.

Jasper is staring at the couple getting married as they say their vows but I'm staring at him unable to keep my eyes off of him. "I wonder if this is what the mate bond is supposed to feel like." Jasper smiles, his eyes never leaving the marrying couple. 

"I'm pretty content with what's between us." He tightens his grip on my shoulders and I feel myself leaning into him slightly. I can see some of the humans staring at the two of us but I pay them no mind. "You look so beautiful tonight."

I punch him lightly in the arm. "You already said that." 

"I know."

***********************************************************************************************

Soon the vows are done and the couple is married. Bella is dancing around with her husband as well as her father. I then see Jacob swoop in and they both go back onto the dance floor. 

"May I have this dance?" Jasper sticks out his hand, his eyes begging me to take it. 

Taking his hand, I stand up from the seat and follow Jasper to the dance floor. "I'm not sure how to dance." I admit embarrassed. 

"Just let me take control." He moves us around, occasionally dipping me. I'm laughing and having a good time as he twirls us around. I sometimes step on his toes but he doesn't mind nor does he say anything. 

We're staring into each others' eyes now, our mouths inches apart. I feel myself leaning in and I see him lean in as well. Our mouths are only inches apart, eyes beginning to close. 

"You are joking." I can hear Jacob talking loudly, breaking Jasper and me apart. "What? While you're still human?" He sounds angry now. Jasper and I glance at each other quickly before we begin to walk towards the arguing. "You can't be serious Bella, tell me you're not that stupid." Picking up the pace but not enough to raise suspicion from the humans, we walk down the side of the house.

"I mean it's really none of your business." I hear Bella say as the pair come into view. Jacob looks angry while Bella looks hurt. 

Jacob grabs Bella by her arms. "No, you can't do this!"

"Jake." She says softly.

"Listen to me, Bella!" His hands tighten on her arms. 

"Let me go!" She yells, ripping her arms out of his grip.

Running towards the pair, Edward appears by Bellas' side. "Calm down, alright." 

Jasper goes to stand near Bella while I run towards Jake. "Are you out of your mind?! You'll kill her!" Jake screams, his voice seething in anger. He takes a step forward, his body beginning to shake. 

Running towards Jacob, I wrap my arms around his body and begin to pull him back. Seth grabs his right arm but he throws both of us off. Landing on the ground with a huff, Embry joins us with pulling Jacob away. He pushes all three of us away using his strength against us.

"Enough Jacob!" Sam says, his holding an authoritative tone to it. 

Sam and Jacob begin to argue and I turn back to Jasper with an apologetic look. My pack begins to turn towards the woods each of them shifting before running off. 

"Laila wait, you don't have to leave just yet." Jasper says, his hand reaching out to grab mine.

Taking a step back from his reaching hand, I look back towards the woods where my pack went. "Actually I do, I'm sorry Jasper." He nods his head in understanding. 

Tearing the dress as I shift, I run into the woods after my pack. 

A howl of despair from Jacob fills the air.
