Chapter 4: Unexpected
Four Months later… Edward's POV
Bella has become apart of our family. Alice has made Bella her new project, as in giving her a makeover. I guess it is better than seeing Emmett and Jasper in a corset, not pretty. I evidently was the only one not to be attacked by Alice's love of dressing people up. Bella looked amazing, not that she didn't before.
Bella's POV
"Alice, why am I always your doll?" I said as she handed me a dress.
"Because you are the only one who will let me dress you up." Alice replied.
I had Alice lace up the back of the ivory dress, and then she brushed my hair, allowing it to flow down my back.
Alice and I walked out into the main room. Emmett whistled which got him hit by Edward, Carlisle, Alice, Rosalie, and Esme. Edward walked up to me and said "My lady may I have this dance?"
"Well of course my lord." I said trying not to laugh. He took me in his arms and twirled me around to no music. I laughed the entire time, and then it occurred to me how long I had not laughed. Edward and I went outside, still dancing. Everything happened so fast.
I looked up at Edward's face and instead of seeing him smile, he looked tense and worried. Edward stopped dancing and said "Bella get behind me!"
"What?" I asked
"Get behind me!" was all he said. I quickly did as I was told.
I heard a familiar voice yelling "GET AWAY FROM HER YOU FILTHY BLOODSUCKER!!" no it couldn't be.
"What do you want Dog?" Edward asked in a low tone, almost a growl.
"You can not have Princess Bella; she is not yours to take!" He replied
"Princess?" he asked me.
"Yeah, about that…" I replied.
"Bella don't you recognize me? It is me Jacob Black." He said
"No, it can't be My Jacob has been dead these four months." I said trying not to cry.
"Bells when we fled the castle I addressed you as princess, but you said that I could call you Izzy or Bella. I liked Bella better so I started to call you that. Come here and touch my hand so that you know I am real." Jacob said extending his hand so to me.
"Try anything funny and I will kill you, Dog!" Edward said as I inched towards Jacob.
I took his large hand in my small one and said "Do you have a fever?"
"I am always a little hot, that is just how my body works." He smiled and I knew that it was indeed Jacob. I hugged him; it was good to feel his warmth.
"I've missed you my friend" He said.
"As have I." I replied
"Bella come back over here." Edward said.
"Edward I would like you to meet, Jacob Black." I said standing in between them.
"Hello." Was all Edward said.
"Why does she address you in such a familiar manner, Bloodsucker?" Jacob snarled.
"What did you just call him?" I asked
"Nothing, I called him nothing" Jacob replied
"You called him Bloodsucker, why did you call him that?" I asked
"Because I am a vampire." Edward replied I took a step back
"What?" I asked
"I am a Vampire as is my entire family, it's complicated." Edward said.
"We all have our secrets I think it is time that we tell them. Vampire or not you saved my life and nothing will change my opinion about you and you family. " I said, still in between the two boys who looked like they were about to kill each other.
"Edward I need to talk Jacob for a little while, I'll meet you back at the house, I promise." I said.
He nodded and said "be careful Bella, I don't trust him." Then walked back into the house.
"Okay, what I want to know is how can you be alive? You died in my arms, what the hell happened to you?" I asked Tears threatening to pour out of my eyes.
"I am a werewolf, I can heal at a fast rate, the wound I had was very deep so I was technically dead for about five minutes. By the time I was fully healed you were gone and your sent was lost in the snow." He said I had to lean on to a tree trunk to keep me from falling on to the ground.
"You're a werewolf, Edward is a vampire, so is my mother a nymph?" I asked sarcastically
"Well I was going to tell you." Jacob replied.
"What!" I exclaimed
"Kidding, relax, but I do need to tell you something about the Queen. She has been arrested." He said
"On what charges?" I asked.
"For the murder of Princess Isabella, I am wanted as well, and Jessica is also wanted. Your mother wanted me to get Jessica out of the castle then come back for her, but they got to her before I could save her. The punishment is…"
"Death." I said not holding back tears. Edward came running out of the house and said "I think you have overstayed your welcome, Jacob. Bella has had a hard day please leave before I do something that you will regret."
"Bells I won't be far, we will come up with a plan to save your mother, I promise." Jacob said giving me a hug the he whispered "I still love you." Then ran in the opposite direction.
"Are you okay, Bella?" Edward asked
"No, I am not. I am confused and scared. My mother is facing death because she tried to save me from an arranged Marriage as is Jessica and Jacob. I need to save them I have to go back, if my mother dies then I will be hurt and broken again and I don't want to go though that again. Jacob is going to come back so we can come up with a plan to her. We will go a ways away from the house so we don't bother you and your family. I'm sorry if that bothers you." I said
"I will help you in any way I can I understand that you want to save your mother." Edward said as I walked past him. "And Bella I love you."
"What?"
"I love you, Bella." He said.
"I have to go." I said quickly going out into the woods. I had to think things over. It wasn't long before I found a meadow. It had a pond in the middle of it and I went over to and stepped into it. It was freezing, because of the snow that had melted into it.
"You know your dress is ruined now." Alice said from behind me. I laughed
"Surprisingly that is not the worst thing that I have heard today." I said sitting on the bank my feet in the water.
"I know Jacob is actually alive and my idiot of a brother told you that he loved you." Alice said sitting next to me.
"Yeah, I don't want to hurt him, but every time I let myself love someone they get hurt." I said tears falling into the pond.
"Bella, newsflash Edward is a Vampire not much can hurt him." Alice said slightly giggling.
"It's not funny Alice. This is a big deal, I care about your brother, believe me I do, but…"
"You still love the dog don't you?" Alice said.
"I don't know what I feel right know. I'm not ready to love again." I said.
"Come on lets get back, everybody must be worried by now." Alice said helping me up.
"You still want me even after what I did to your brother?" I asked
"Bella you are like my sister, nothing will make me what to get rd of you." Alice said.'
Alice's POV
I pasted Edward as Bella and I went back into the house. "Just give her time, she cares about you, but she is still hurting." He nodded.
i needed a confilct if i wanted this story to continue, and felt bad for killing Jacob off, i do love him, but less than Edward of course.
