Ch. 1 Engagement
I didn't want to go to the engagement. I almost told Charlie, actually, if it weren't for Bella begging me not to. And promising that she'd never speak to me. I grumbled as I fixed my tie. This was going to be torture, stepping over their boundary and wearing a suit. I just shiver thinking about it.
"Jacob?"
My dad. I walked out to him, looking exceedingly grumpy.
"Yes?"
"So you're going?" he chuckled.
"Yeah. Don't tell Charlie, though, or Bella will think that it was me,"
"My lips are sealed," he said.
"Great. I'm out," I pulled on my jacket, feeling claustrophobic. I haven't really bundled myself up like this, and I was already starting to sweat. Now this is when being a werewolf really sucks.
"Jacob, how will you get there?" Dad asked.
"I'll walk," I snorted. "If I'm late, then that's the best thing,"
"Goodness," he laughed. "I have a feeling you'll change there,"
"And have the vampires crawling all over me? No way!" I had already made a resolution to myself that I would not transform, no matter how hard it was.
I opened the door. The air hit my face, cooling me down a little bit. Luckily, for me, it was snowing. Yay! I stepped out.
"Bye Dad,"
"Goodbye Jacob,"
I let the door shut behind me.
-x-x-
"Jake! You made it!" Bella threw her arms around me. I tried to hug her back, but my nose kept wrinkling from the excessive scent of vampires.
"Jacob," Edward came over, and after Bella released me, shook my hand.
"Edward," I nodded.
"I know how hard this is for you," Edward smiled thinly, but it wasn't mocking. Good. I would've knocked his teeth out. "It's a shame that you're the only wolf. Did everyone else refuse to come?"
I spoke in my mind, as not to hurt Bella's feelings. They almost murdered me! They said I was crazy, and that running after Bella was a waste of my life. I almost pounded them to a pulp, if it helps.
Edward nodded, reading my thoughts.
"What?" Bella wrinkled her forehead in suspicion.
"Nothing," I grinned.
Edward didn't say anything. Bella touched his chest.
"What?" she said again.
"Just…wolves being wolves," he said after a moment. "Excluding Jacob,"
Damn straight, I laughed in my mind.
"Listen…is it just me?"
"Actually, some new vampires are coming. They're from the Volturi," Bella smiled. "Apparently, they need to make sure Edward bites me,"
Edward grimaced. "Please, love, I would prefer the word change,"
"…you're too sensitive," Bella snorted.
I took the moment to really look at her. She had her hair up in a bun, one lock twirling down the side of her face. Someone had sprayed glitter in her hair, and done her makeup. Her face was pure white, which is a huge change considering she was Arizona Tan, and her lips a rose red. Her eyes had light, blue eye shadow, which complemented her dress. I smiled sadly. She was leaving me.
Edward cocked his head at me.
Don't get your mind in a knot. She looks beautiful, that's all I hissed at him internally.
The dirty bloodsucker just rolled his eyes!
"I heard that," he chuckled.
I grimaced.

"Anyone have any objections beside the wolf?" Alice asked.
I hate to admit it, but she looked pretty cute in her long, pink, velvet dress (no straps).
"No. Of course they don't," Emmett, one of Edward's "brothers" cracked his knuckles. "Proceed,"
"Thank you," Alice nodded. "Edward…give her the ring,"
I clenched my hands. My breath became ragged. I was going to let her go…so easily. Well, not easily. I had fought constantly with her for the past months. And I had failed. I shut my eyes tight. No, no, no, no, no!
"Are you ok, Jacob?" a kind voice asked. I looked up at Esme. She looked worried.
"I'll…be…fine," I started to pant.
Edward took the gold ring from the cushiony box. He took her hand and said, "For eternity, Bella?"
Bella had tears streaming down her cheeks. All she could do was nod. Edward slipped the ring on her finger. A low growl escaped my throat, and my own tears pooled at my eyes.
"Your turn Bella!" Alice gushed. "This is making me want to cry!"
Edward smiled warmly and wiped away the tears on Bella's cheeks. Surprisingly, the make up didn't come off.
"For Eternity?" Bella asked as she took the second gold ring.
"Yes,"
Suddenly, Edward and Alice burst into laughs as Bella dropped the ring.
"Sorry!" she pouted, embarrassed. I couldn't help but smile. Klutzy Bella.
"That's alright," Alice found the ring and put it back into Bella's palm.
Edward held out his hand, and Bella slipped it on his fingers.
I nodded sadly. So this was it.
Congratulate Bella for me, Edward. I can't stay any longer.
Edward looked at me and nodded.
"And now…for the Changing," Jasper said calmly. The vampires all turned their faces to Edward.
"You should go…NOW, Jacob," he said quietly.
I knew what they were going to do. After a few moments, Bella would no longer be human.
I smiled sadly and said, "Bells, I'll come see you tomorrow. Even if you are a vampire,"
She broke out in fresh tears.
I took in deep breaths and started out the door. My palms started to sweat. My legs felt like lead.
My throat started to feel dry.
And I ran.
I ran as fast as I possibly could have, because I knew that the filthy bloodsucker's teeth were already in Bella. The Bella I knew…had gone.
