Jacob Black

I knew as soon as I saw her that she was the one. I'd often heard Sam talking about imprinting and that you know straight away, but I never knew how right it would feel once I saw her.

She wasn't exactly the image of perfection, but she was close. Isabella Swan. The name still pains me, but I know now that it was never meant to be. But then again, so many things aren't.

For example, the reason that we can't be together is that she is engaged to a vampire. I always thought that I'd be the one she'd end up with, but then he came into the picture.

Hate is too strong a word. I don't hate Edward Cullen I just strongly dislike him. As long as he makes Bella happy, I suppose that'll do. Everything would have worked out perfectly if him and his bloodsucker clan hadn't moved to Forks. I probably would have married Bella and she would have never been in any kind of danger. But things never work out, as they should. Or at least it seems that way.

Now my dear Bella is about to be turned into a bloodsucker too and I'm lying here broken in my bed. Literally. And there is absolutely nothing I can do to make her change her mind.

"Bella, are you sure you want to do this?" I could see the pain in his hypnotic Topaz eyes. Edward was still hoping that I'd change my mind. It hurt me to see the pain in his eyes.

I inhaled his sweet scent and smiled. "You know what I'm going to say."

"I just want you to keep your options open" he sighed. "You haven't experienced a lot of things and it would kill me to see you regret your decision in a few years, knowing that I was the one who took your life."

I leaned into his ice-cold chest and felt his arms envelop me. "I wont regret this

"I feel like I'm in a cocoon!" I giggled.

He smiled my favourite crooked smile. "You are my butterfly."

I snuggled into him and sighed. I knew I had made the right decision.

"Well then" murmured. "I suppose we should talk to Alice about the wedding plans."

I frowned. My favourite subject. Alice was going mad planning the wedding and she wouldn't settle for anything less than perfect. "Oh boy" I frowned. "This should be a blast!"
