A.N. - if possible, read while listening to "Heartfelt Lies" by Ron Pope
His face glowed. Staring in pure bliss at the white angel walking down the aisle . she looked beautiful, as expected.
Her golden curls were loosely pushed up under her veil, and her small round face was laced with a smile staring at her awaiting lover.
I stood in the back, providing opportunity for a quick escape. My whole body was tense, arms crossed, feet rooted to the floor, biting my bottom lip.

I was shaking and raced towards the forest, transforming into the massive grey monster.
Some glanced after me noting the disturbance, but all attention returned to the alter, as the pastor announced, "i now present Mr. And Mrs Jacob Black"

My dad, sam and now Jake....Maybe i was meant to be left behind
