When Jacob picked up Billy at Charlie's, he couldn't miss the photo hanging above the TV: Bella on her wedding day. He barely spared a glance for her husband, Edward Cullen. She was wearing an old-fashioned gown that screamed "not Bella" to him. But her smile… her smile was radiant. She seemed to glow from within. He couldn't tear his eyes from her.

"Don't hurt yourself, boy," Billy said from behind him.

"Don't worry," Jacob replied. "Actually, it's good to see her so happy."

And it was, really. It made his sacrifice much more bearable: he'd done the right thing.
