Prince Jake's POV

I still couldn't believe it, though I had been staring at them for what seemed like an eternity. And to think, this is what she had been doing instead of apologizing to me. Bella obviously didn't love me enough to stop her FORBIDDEN LOVE AFFAIR to apologize to me. How could she do this? Not only to me, but to her parents (an me!)! I couldn't watch it anymore! It was disgusting!

I got up to leave, quietly; I didn't even want to bust them. I'd leave so they wouldn't know I knew, which would make the shock of getting caught that much bolder. I didn't even want Bella to be punished; I just wanted him to be banished and for her to never see him again. That would be punishment enough, I thought. I stood up and headed for the door, dodging behind plants and bushes.

It angered me how they continued to kiss with no shame or discretion. The kiss without interupption until...

I tripped over a vase. I scolded myself as it fell with a light thump to the floor...

Princess Isabella's POV

Edward and I were so into our passionate kiss, it shocked me when I heard a vase tip over. Not enough to break or anything, but enough to catch my attention and displace some flowers.

"Edward, stop." I said pushing him off of me. I looked around the balcony, trying to find some answer other than the one I had already come up to what had caused the vase to tip. But there was no other answer; Someone was watching us.

"Why? What's wrong?" he gave me puzzled look as he followed my gaze, trying to find what I was staring at.

"Someone is watching." I whipsered. "Someone saw us. Someone sees us right now." How could we have been so reckless? This would ruin everything! I would never see Edward again. It was all over.

"Bella! What the hell!" I heard Jake's voice called at me. I turned around towards the door leading into the ballroom. Jake was there, and he had undoubtably witnessed the whole thing; the kissing and hugging, ALL OF IT! I had expected some stranger to be spying on us, but not Jake! Not someone I cared about.

"Jake? How could you?" I asked him in a hurt voice. "Jake, did you see-"

"Yeah I saw it all!" he interrupted me loudly. "The whole damn thing! And Bella, it's wrong! Your parents are going to be so disappointed in you." he was yelling.

"Jake! Shh! Everyone will hear!" I begged. It's not like everyone in the whole ballroom needed know.

"And you," he said walking over to Edward now. "how dare you! Some gentleman you are!"

"Jake! It's not his fault! Do not blame him for this!" I stepped in between the two of them. "I ask to see him because I love him! It was never his idea to start seeing each other! He is the perfect gentleman! Which is more than I can say for you! You are immature and you are selfish and you are spoiled! So just mind your own DAMN BUSINESS!" I had never in my 18 years of life (16 years of speaking) ever blown up and anyone like that. I breathed heavily for a few moments, staring coldly at Jake. His face was a combination of hurt and anger. Maybe that was a bit harsh, but he deserved it! Didn't he?

"Bella, it's time to go." Alice came to the balcony. "Oh!" she said seeing Jake. "Do you need a minute?" she gave me a puzzled look.

"No." I managed to choke out. "Let's just- go." I rushed out, feeling that I was about to cry. I didn't stop until I was safely in the carriage.

And I cried. I cried from guilt at what I had said to Jake and I cried for not apologizing or saying goodbye to him. After I was done crying (more from lack of tears than desire) I just waited for Edward and Alice and Jasper so we could all just go home.

I wanted to go home.
