(Jacob's POV)

Sam paced in front of me. He'd came and got me over a hour and had been pacing ever since.

"You…" That was all he managed for another few minutes. Finally: "A leech, Jacob? I don't care that it's a guy. But I do care that it's a leech!"

"I don't even know what to say," I whispered, lowering my head. "I don't know what happened to me. But I like him. A lot. And I want the pack to accept us."

"If this is what you want," he said. "Then we can no longer allow you to be part of us." My head shot up.

"What?" I cried.

"You heard me," Sam replied. He walked away. I left too, tears stinging my eyes.

(Edward's POV)

I sat on the couch in my room, absently staring at the book in my lap. No one had said a word to me since I'd walked in. Everyone knew.

Thanks, Alice.

The doorbell rang. It was Jake. I beat Esme to the door.

"What's up?" I asked, kissing him. He slid his thumbs into the back pockets of jeans.

Can we talk outside? he thought. I shut the door behind me and brought him into the garage.

"What's going on?" I asked, touching his cheek with my fingertips.

My dad threw me out. He couldn't talk he was so choked up.

"Tell me what happened," I said, drawing him against my chest.

"I told him about us and he just looked at me with disappointed look in his eyes and said 'get out'." I held him while he cried. I knew everyone was listening to us. I didn't care.

"Let me talk to Esme and Carlise," I said. "They'll let you stay here." I led him inside.

(Jacob's POV)

Edward went into the kitchen to talk with Carlise and Esme. I waited in the living room, awkwardly shuffling my feet. Alice pretended to watch T.V. Eventually, she broke the silence:

"They're going to let you stay," she said, gesturing for me to sit next to her. I did.

"I don't want to hate vampires anymore," I said. "I don't think I ever really did. I was just…trying to get the pack to accept me. Now that they don't want me…I can be who I really am." I was shocked when she put her arms around my neck and hugged me. I hugged her back.

"Alice," came Edward's voice from the doorway. We separated. "Are you making moves on my boyfriend?" There was a smile in his voice. I smiled too and went to him.

"I know she already told you," he said, putting his arm around my shoulder. He led me over to the piano.

"Do you know how long I've been playing this song and thinking of you when I played it?" he asked as he sat on the bench and began to play. The music was soft and gentle. He began to sing:

Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes: and leap! It's time to try Defying gravity I think I'll try Defying gravity Kiss me goodbye I am defying gravity And you wont bring me down

I wiped my eyes. I thought this was going to be perfect.

The feeling quickly went away when we heard Bella's truck pull up.

A/N-Busted? Maybe? Possibly?
