Well fans of Emmett's Mistake, I bring you the long awaited sequel!
It's still being written so my posting will be all out of whack. I don't have a set day that I write, so it's there whenever I get it up.
Let me tell you, it's nothing that you will be expecting. At all. The poll did not help. I just closed it. 22 people voted. I was hoping more, but I'll take what I can get. 11 people want Alice to bite Bella. 11 people want Bella to wait. Does that suck or what? So, I'm on my own with this. Also, my chapter lengths will be erratic. Some really short, others long.

Warning: They are in Paris therefore I'll be slipping in French words. I'll admit my French sucks, but I have a French dictionary to help me. The translations will be in bold print.

For example: "Je vais tres bien." She reassured me. (I'm very well.)
Although some words are very similar to the English language that don't need to be translated.

On an off note, while I was between writing stories...well actually I was waiting for a story to hit me. And it did thank you very much Aidan. I read Wuthering Heights. I wanted to see what Bella thought was so great about Heathcliff and Catherine. To tell you the truth, I hardly understood it. But, parts of the story reminded me so much of Bella's love triangle with Edward and Jacob. That's when I thought "Why not throw another guy into the mix?" Let's mess her up that much more because everyone knows she always ends up with Edward. (Trivial things make that romance so much more sweeter.) These three paragraphs are quoted in Eclipse. I just love them and wanted to post them on my story. They don't have some secret meaning that will give you a hint to my story so don't go looking into them too much!

~*~
If all else perished,
and he remained,
I should still continue to be;
and if all else remained,
and he were annihilated,
the universe would turn
to a mighty stranger.

~*~
I cannot live
without my life!
I cannot live
without my soul!

~*~
And there you see the distinction between our feelings:
had he been in my place
and I in his,
though I hated him with a hatred that turned my life to gall,
I never would have raised a hand against him.
I never would have banished him from her society
as long as she desired his.
The moment her regard ceased,
I would have torn his heart out and drank his blood!
But till then,
I would have died by inches before touching a single hair on his head!

Now to start my sequel!


Living the Life

"Bella have you seen the view?" Alice asked dancing around the large round room. I looked up from my reverie; I was picturing life with Edward with me as a vampire. All I heard was my name.

She rolled her eyes and plopped down onto the couch next to me. "Please tell me you're not thinking of Edward." She begged.

"You say it like it's possible," I mumbled.

She growled and threw a pillow at me. I ducked away just in time. There was a tiny knock on my door that distracted me. Alice was already opening it before I could react. Rosalie and Esme walked in.

"C'est la belle vie!" Rosalie sighed. (This is the life!)

"It would be if Bella wasn't so depriment!" Alice grumbled.

I walked over to Esme. "I'm sorry I'm so de...wait. What does that mean?"

"Depressing." Esme whispered into my ear.

I walked over to the balcony doors, defeated. Leave it to Alice to get the two best rooms in all of France. The view was, to say the least, breathtaking. The Eiffel Tower was even larger than I imagined. It was raining when we landed; just like Alice predicted. She had a car waiting for us with a chauffeur decked out in suit and tie. Our bags were to come later. They were going to send them to our suite as soon as they were unloaded. We arrived at the Hotel Plaza Athenee around late afternoon. The staff there treated us like royalty. It seemed a few recognized Rosalie. She later told me her and Emmett had several honeymoons here. I was surprised to hear Rosalie, Alice and Esme speaking perfect French. I was the only one that had no idea what was being said. We checked in for a week. I could go a week without Edward. I would go a week. I wasn't about to ruin this trip for the others.

"Since it's so late already, I decided we could just walk through the streets. We can start the vacation tomorrow. I've got a few favorite places I want to go to. Bella, you will come and you are going to like it." Alice told me in a way that sounded like a threat. I put on a smile for her. "Thank you. Now--" She froze mid-sentence. A look of horror and frustration crossed her face.

Rosalie and Esme flitted to her side. "What's wrong?"

"What'd you see?"

"Our future just disappeared! How did that happen?" Alice shreaked.

I didn't understand what she meant by that. Suddenly my cell phone rang. Alice stared at my bag holding it with a surprised expression. Nothing ever surprised Alice. Ever. It looked like I wasn't the only one worried. Esme motioned for me to answer it. I walked over and picked it up.

"Hello?" I asked warily

"Bella! Oh thank god you answered!"

"Jacob? What happened? Is everything okay?"

"Um...not really. I did something kinda stupid. Okay, it was really stupid, but totally fun! I'd do it again in a heartbeat."

"What are talking about? What did you do?"

"Um...well..." There was a long pause. "I sneaked onto the plane."

"You're here?!" I screamed.

He laughed. "Define 'here'."

I was confused with his question. What other 'here' was there. "Here, as in Paris France, here."

"Then yes. I'm here."

I started to get mad, the relief didn't get a chance to wash away before even more came. "Jake, quit beating around the bush. Where are you?"

"Jail."

I froze. "Jail?" I struggled with the word.

"Uh-huh. Luckily though they have the one phone call thing, too." He refused to take this seriously. I looked over at Alice. She, along with the others, was staring at me. "You still there?"

I swallowed back the panic and worry. "Yes, I'm still here. So what do you want me to do about it?"

"Well, I was wondering if you'd bail me out. I'll pay you back...eventually."

I sighed. "Of course Jacob. I'm coming. What precinct?" After he told me, I hung up.

"Jacob. Who's that?" Rosalie asked watching me.

"He's a friend of the family. He lives on the Quiluete Reservation. Jacob sneaked onto the plane and got caught. I've got to go find an ATM." I grabbed my purse and headed for the door.

"I wouldn't even think of letting you pay, Bella." Esme stopped me. I smiled back in gratitude.

The rain had turned to a slow drizzle now. Esme called a cab. I was way too worried about Jacob to enjoy the ride. Once we got there, I ran inside. There was a short man at the desk. He looked up at my noisy entrance.

"Bonsoir, puis-je vous aider?" He asked cheerily. (Good evening, may I help you?)

"Uh...bonjour...um" I looked around for Alice. She came through the doors as if she owned the place. "Help?"

She laughed and walked up to the man. "Faire mettre en liberte sous caution." (AN: roughly translated, I'm here to bail someone out.)

I stood back and let her use her magic. I noticed the man's reaction to her. I'd seen it many times over; it never got old. She continued the conversation in perfect French. Finally, the man laughed, nodding his head.

"But of course! The tall, dark-skin boy!" He spoke with a thick accent. His description sounded about right. I nodded. He laughed again with Alice. "Foolish boy! Stupide! Idiote!"

I chuckled. "Yes, that's right! Stupide."

He muttered something to Alice in French again before turning and leaving through a door.

Alice turned to me. "Let's go get your idiote friend."

We followed the man into the back. Jacob was sitting on a wooden bench inside the cell. I couldn't help from laughing at him. He immediately looked up.

"Don't tell me you sneaked onto the plane just to ask if we could hang out sometime." I said, remembering back when he broke into my house. "The felonies just keep piling up!"

"Bella," he breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally, someone who speaks English!"

I laughed again. "I came to spring you. Do you have any clothes or bags with you?"

His mouth turned down. "I didn't think that far ahead. I went to say goodbye to you, but I didn't know what time your flight was leaving. I was actually pretty lucky when I saw they were boarding the animals onto the plane. I just grabbed a goat and got on."

I looked around. "Yeah, definitely lucky."

"Just get me out of here please."

I held my finger up. "Hang on. I've got to get a picture of this to show Charlie." I pulled my camera phone out and snapped a picture. That was a keeper.

Alice gave the officer the bail money. He released Jacob and sent us on our way.

"You are on the first plane out of here, Jacob Black. First plane." Alice informed him, pulling her phone out.
