Jessica Stanely rose from her seat.
"What do you mean?! ' YOU OBJECT ?! ' " She screeched. I felt like I was watching the most over played soap opera in history. Everyone in the church all seemed to be enjoying the moment though.
"I. . . I'm. . . I'm inlove with you, Bella!" Mike shouted so loudly. I blushed and leaned into Edward as this was all news to me.
"YOU WHAT!?" Jessica screamed.
"Thats right. . . Ever since I first saw Bella on her first day . . . I was instantly and completely. . . truly. . . madly. . . deeply . . . INLOVE !" Mike shouted, Now smiling. I arched an eyebrow. This guy made no sense. Was my love triangle forming into a square ?!
"You're dating me!" Jessica snapped and stomped her foot into the expensive hard wood. Now she has more reasons to hate me secretively.
"I'm sorry, Jessica. . ." Mike began. He didn't look sorry in the least.
"We were never meant to be. . ." Mike said it so simply. Jessica's jaw was soon to be dislocated if she kept it hanging there to long.
"Now, Come Bella! " Mike opened his arms to me. My left eye twitched.
"Come with me and we can be inlove without hiding it any longer !" Mike sang.
The whole crowd turned to me. Edward stepped right infront of me, Not even giving me a choice, Not that I'm complaining.
"Now wait just a minute Mike Newton !" Edward barked.
" I've been waiting to long for her! " Mike whined.
"I've been dating Bella for almost four years and now you think you can just barge into the wedding as if you two were soul mates! You haven't even asked her out on a date yet!"
"Wrong again, Edward" Mike corrected. I wanted to slap my forehead. He was bringing up the third wheel memory.
"Bella and I worked every day close together. . . Plus we went to the movies. . . I was sick and she tended for me, When you just left her good as dead!" Mike roared. A growl from Edward ripped through his chest.
"Hey, Jacob was there too!" I finally spoke up.
"You went on a date with TWO BOYS ?!" Someone yelled from the audience.
"It wasn't a date!" I screeched.
"But. . . Bella. . .sweetie" Mike whispered. Just then loud footsteps echoed through out the whole church. The crowd was once again silence for this intreuder.
"I object !" The voice was so familar. So lovely. So affectionate.
"Thank the lord. . ." Charlie applauded. Jacob Black then stood beside Mike.
"What?!" Edward shouted.
"Dear lord. . ." The preacher put down the bible. He looked up to the sky for support.
"Jacob " I whispered. His objection meant more to be then Mike's.
"I objected already ! " Mike groaned.
" Oh. . . Uh " Jacob seemed surprised that there was one person that wanted the wedding to vanish as much as he did.
" Theres no rule on two objections, Right?" Jacob asked the priest hopefully.
"What does it matter. . . " The preacher mumbled to himself.
"I heard you left the state. . ." Edward spat. Smugly.
"So I did. . . and I returned. . ." Jacob smiled. I found myself smiling with him. Edward's eyes flickered at me. I was so happy about his return. Without him . . . Was like. . . living without a bear nessicity. Without water. No air in my lungs to release or take in.
"Missed you, Jake!" Charlie raised his glass in approval. I then realized Charlie was hoping for his arrival too.
"Surprised you're not the first objection. . ." Jacob laughed. The crowd all seemed so intent on what was going on. Charlie disapproved Edward. I had guys lining up for my hand. Edward looked vicious as ever.
"I was hoping you would would arrive, You had me worried you wouldn't show. . ." Charlie's sentences were slurred from the alcohol.
"Hey! I objected already. . . So come on, Bella. I have things we must discuss" Mike tapped his foot impaitently. Jacob's head twisted to Mike.
"What. . ." He mumbled to him.
"I'm inlove with her got a problem with that ?!" Mike raised his fists although Jacob towered over him. Jessica's sobbing pierced through out the room.
"What?!" Jacob sounded so completely stunned.
"Thats right!" Mike's voice was now shaky.
"I'm the one thats inlove with Bella!" Jake made a fist. Mike's eyes widened and he stepped back away quickly.
"Bella is engaged to me!" Edward snapped.
"Not anymore, We objected!" Mike stepped back to Jacob, Hoping to form a team against Edward. Jacob's growl shook the fear in him swiftly. He stepped a good distance away.
"Its Bella's choice!" Edward growled then turned to me. My heart thudded back to the bottomless pit of my stomach.
"W-Well. . ."
"Choose me, Bella!" Mike winked. I cringed. Jacob and Edward waited for my choice with hard expressions. I felt like a dog. Given the choice to choose which owner I wanted to be with. Like one of those children movies I was so fond
with in the past. Now coming back to haunt me. How could I possibly choose now. I couldn't even choose in the privacy of my home. How was I suppose to answer infront of the whole town. They already believed I was a tramp for leading these guys on. Jacob's lower lip jutted out in a pout that was so
upsetting that I wanted to pounce on him and smother him in a hug of my own. Edward's glare was the only thing that stopped me. My feets tapped lightly at the floor in one place. I had a chance to escape. So many witnesses.
My legs jolted for the fire exit. The whole crowd gasped. There voices faded as my speed increased. I wasn't even good at running with no death heels on. How was I managing to stay up with this floor legenth dress weighing me down.
Running away from my problems only seemed to be the logical thing to do in this situation. Stumbling bit by bit until I made it outside. A cold gust moved up my dress. Thus blowing up the dress in an indecent manner of exposure. I pushed it down and I hated how I felt like
Marilynn Manrow. As the wind calmed itself I went back to sprinting away from my issues. Into the forest I went. I began to ponder if Jacob Black felt this way when he tried to bolt out of his diffuculties.
No, Jacob felt betrayed. I left Jacob without even fully think about what I was leaving behind. Of course, Edward left me. . . but with Jacob's help I was able to live. Without Jacob . . . I couldn't go on.
Just then something dark pounced down infront me. I screamed so loudly that bird's fled from nest's. It was Jacob. I calmed. I exhaled almost to easily.
"H-Hey. . ." I muttered. My voice on the other hand wasn't as easy. Was he going to yell at me for embarassing him. . . ?
He only starred at me with dark eyes. They looked sad.He inhaled quickly. His voice sounded unsteady and one single clear tear fell down his face. It broke my heart. I never saw Jacob ever break out of a cool expression.
I never once seen him cry. Just then my tears started to flow.
