A/n:  A special thanks to Carlisle7309 for the Idea I used in this chapter, And for giving me the motivation to finish this story instead of leaving it on chatper two :)

 I didn't sleep at all last night,  There was a terrible storm with snow. Plus I was listening to Jacob and Edward talk, And then Seth started to snore, Which was actually really cute, In his like a brother kind of way ' Sam, And idea how much longer?' I asked, Pacing impatiently.

'No, But it should be soon' Sam replied, Soon? Great, That's going to be loads of fun. Risking your life for the girl your boyfriend has feelings for even though you hate her guts, Yep it couldn't get any better than this, New hit TV show anyone?

' I am going to phase for a bit, See you at the battle.' I said and phased,  Seth had left a while ago  to go to get something to eat. Not that I blame him, The guys in the pack eat a lot, If my mom saw them eat, She would call them pigs and hit them with something.

I walked near where the tent was, And I saw Jacob briefly listening "The best one was when you said you would marry me."  A voice, That I almost couldn't tell belonged to Edward. He must be talking to Bella, Because I highly doubt he would be talking to anyone else.

I saw Jacob move close which made me bit my lip slightly " You're marrying him?" Jacob asked, Sounding hurt and then turned and ran off. A wave of hurt hit me, I am not sure if its because Jacob is upset or if its because he is upset  that Bella is marrying Edward.

"Jake!"Isabelle shouted before turning to face Edward "You knew, You knew he was listening! I didn't want him to find out this way!" She said, It was clear she was very angry and ran off herself. I stood there not sure how to react myself, After a moment I walked over to Edward who was unmoved from his spot.

"What the hell was that about?" I asked confused, Edward looked at me. His eyes had a unexplainable, Unreadable look to them. I guess in a way he looked like child who got told he couldn't have a cookie, Or at least a human who wanted to cry.

"I knew Jacob was listening, So I mentioned to Bella what my favorite days with her were. And I mentioned how she said she would marry me to get" Edward began watching me as he was being cautious with his wording "Jacob to get over his crush on Bella, Now he hates Bella and Bella hates me." He finished, Seeming  slightly disgusted at the mention of Jacob's name.

I shook my head and sighed,  Of course "Why does love have to be so damn complicated?" I asked and ran a hand through my hair, A smile slightly twitched on Edward's face but it was gone quickly and it turned into a frown, Not sure what for.

"Because love was never meant to be easy" Edward replied "To be in love means you are willing to take risks and sometimes you end up hurt in the end" He added, I just stared at him surprised. That's not really something I expected to hear from him, A leech of all people.

"I am going to go check on them" I said quickly, I wanted away from  leeches as long as I could be. I walked up quietly to where they had run off, Once they came into view, I got a little closer and stood just out of sight of Jacob and Isabella but just where I still could see and hear them.

Jacob had turned around to leave Isabella and go into the forest and then she spoke "J-Jake" Isabella began "I love you, Don't leave please" She begged, A spark of anger and sadness started in me, She told him she loved him, And Jacob told her once he loved her..

Jacob looked back and Isabella again and shook his head "Not like you love him." Jacob said, I really want to know what was going on before I came over here, What brought this on. And what Isabella meant by please don't leave, Was he actually leaving La Push? Or just her?
