It was the night of the wedding, and I just couldn't sleep. I heard the whoosh of air, and figured that Jasper and Emmett went to go have Edward's bachelor party. I just had to smile. I knew what Bella was thinking right now, more than anyone. 'She's probably thinking about the guest list. Poor Bella, she never is going to understand why Edward loves her so. She'll learn though.' I also smiled at how her reaction will be to Edward. But, then I had to sigh. 'To think that during the honey moon,' I thought to myself. I couldn't concentrate on that right now. 'I'll deal with it when the time comes.' I just continued to lay there for a few minutes before I decided I should work out. I went to the weight room/garage and put on my 500 pounds. I didn't need a spotter I was comfortable at where I was at with my starting weight. I got it up off the bar, and did at least 25 reps. I got off the bench, and put on 530. I got back under the bar, and did 20 reps.

"You're getting pretty strong there Adrian," I heard a voice say.

I looked towards the door, and Carlisle was standing there. "Hey Carlisle, how's it going," I asked while putting on 550.

"It's going I guess. Why are you up at 2 in the morning?"

"Can't sleep. Too excited for the wedding later," I said getting under the bar.

"Yeah, if I was in your shoes, I wouldn't be able to either." He must've looked at the amount of weight I had, cause he asked, "Would you like me to spot you?"

"Sure." I got under the bar with him watching me, just in case. I lifted it up with surprising ease. "You don't have to help me lift it Carlisle. Just watch and see if I need help."

"Sorry. I wasn't a weight lifter when I was a kid. Hell, the only thing that was close to lifting weights was living on a farm," he snickered.

"I hear ya," I said pumping my arms. I got to about 16 when it was getting a little harder. I put the bar back on the bench. "Whew, that was a little harder than I thought."

"I'd have to agree. 550 pounds is a little heavy for a human."

"You probably know this Carlisle," I told him while putting on 565. "There are a select few of us who do strong man competitions, and there are those who can lift almost a thousand pounds."

"Interesting, I'll have to look in on that."

I smiled at the thought that I impressed a 400 year old vampire with that knowledge. I went under, and was able to do 11 reps. That's when the real burn decided to say 'Hello!' "Ugh," I said putting the bar back. "Alrighty then, this is getting hard, good." I decided to push myself and put 580 on the bar. "I might need your help with this one Carlisle."

"Okay then."

I got the bar up, I brought it down, and I pushed it back up, with a little effort.

"That's one Adrian."

I tried again, and it got a little harder.

"Two, keep it up."

I tried a third time, and was able to get it up, which surprised the hell out of me.

"Three! Keep it going, you're doing great!"

I tried it again.

"Four," Carlisle exclaimed cheering me on.

'Come on, you can do this,' I thought to myself. I tried it again.

"Five!"

'Come on, one more, just one more.' I tried it again with all I had.

"SIX!"

I brought down the bar one last time, and tried to get it up. I couldn't this time. "Uh-oh, Carlisle, a little help please before this crushes me."

"Okay," he said getting the bar. He lifted it with ease. "That was very impressive Adrian."

"Thank…you," I gulped. I was sweating like mad, and out of breath. I walked to the kitchen to get some water. I grabbed a glass, and it felt like it weighed a ton. "Ah crap. Can you help me get a glass of water please? It seems that your glasses weigh a ton."

"Well, you were lifting close to 600 pounds. It's no surprise that your arms would feel shot," he told me while getting the water.

He handed it to me and I said, "Thank you." I chugged it down, and got another glass. 10 glasses of water later, I felt better. "Phew," I said plopping down in a chair. "That was, wow. Next time, I'm starting at 560."

"You sure about that," Carlisle asked worried.

"If I can start out at 500 right now, and with the weight I just lifted. It should be a decent weight to start out with," I told him while downing another glass of water. I went to take a shower, because it was almost 4 in the morning. 'In just a few short hours, Bella Swan will be Bella Cullen,' I thought with a smile. But, it didn't last long. 'Thank GOD Edward isn't here to hear my thoughts. If he knew what was going to happen on their honeymoon,' I thought with dread. I finished with my shower, with a towel wrapped around my waist. I went to my room, and got dressed.

I checked the clock, and it said it was 5:30. "Ugh," I sighed. Instead of getting dressed, I plopped down on my bed and just lay there. It felt like I laid there for a few minutes when Alice came to get me.

"Adrian, come on you goof, you have to get up! The guests are arriving!"

"Shit! What time is it?"

"It's about 2 in the afternoon."

"Ah crud," I said getting the sleep out of my eyes. "Are the guests really here already?"

"No, just thought it would be a good idea to scare you into getting up."

"I would be mad at you, but that was a good idea Alice. I really needed the sleep."

"From what I heard from Carlisle, you did. A human lifting almost 3 and a half time his own weight, is pretty impressive."

"Thanks. From what heard from you the other day, I'll be the strongest newborn in existence."

"That's true dad," I heard a voice say.

"Hey honey." I looked at her in her dress and she was stunning. It was a silvery color like her aunt's and it flowed down to her knees. It was modest, but alluring. "You went all out on her besides Bella didn't you," I teased.

"She said she liked the one I had, and we got two."

"Well, it looks great sweetie," I hugged her.

"Thanks dad. You don't look so bad yourself."

"You're just saying that," I blushed.

"No I'm not. Right next to Uncle Edward, you're the most handsome."

"Hey what about me," a voice asked.

I looked where it came from, and it was Seth.

"Oh, Seth, you made it!" She ran to him.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world," he said kissing her.

"I know," she said kissing him back.

I cleared my throat, and they broke away looking embarrassed. "So, is it just you for now Seth?"

"Well, sort of. It's just my mom, Billy, and I."

I pulled him to the side for a quick minute, telling them, "We'll be just a minute." When we were far enough away I asked, "Do you think Jake will show?"

"Maybe. He's still going with his instincts. We checked on him earlier, he was still in Canada."

"Huh, well I hope he does. He's Bella's best man."

"I know."

We went back, and got to our seats. I was next to Billy, Sue next to Billy on his other side, Seth by his mom, and Bree next to him. First it was Alice coming down the stairs with Jasper on her arm. Then there was a big fanfare as soon as it was Bella's turn. She was at the top of the stairs. She looked a little paler than usual. I knew it was her nerves. But, she made it down the stairs. When she was at the bottom landing, she looked for Edward. When she found him, I saw her arm twitch, as if ready to launch herself at him. But, she held her composure.

She slowly made her way down the aisle, and Charlie gave her hand to Edward. As the exchange of vows was made; with them changing 'Until death do us part', to 'As long as we both shall live.' It was a good touch, considering that she was going to become a vampire soon. When they both said 'I do' the guests went nuts with applause, me included. The wedding flawlessly moved from the house to the outside, where there were more flowers, tables, and the dance floor. I saw a line was forming to say their congratulations to the new couple. I was in front of the Cullen's cousins from Denali. I looked and saw Kate, Carmen, Eleazar, and Tanya. I could see why Bella would be worried about them. They were all beautiful. Tanya was the most stunning of them all. As they said their piece, I was next.

"So, you two have finally tied the proverbial knot huh?" I turned to Edward. "Were the books a good insight into her head?"

"Very much so. I thank you for the gift Adrian."

"You're welcome." I turned to Bella then. "Did he tell you what he found Bells?"

"Yes. After he read them, we both talked, and he understood. But, the tradeoff was just as good. Now I know without a doubt, he loves me just as I do him."

"That's great! I hope you now understand that no matter what your concerns were until this moment, are now moot and resolved with him marrying you."

She just smiled at this.

"Well, I better get going, you still have some guests that what to say congratulations." I left and found a table close to the cake and dance floor. When they were done, Bella threw her bouquet, and it landed in Angela's hands. I then hooted and cheered as Edward removed her borrowed garter, and with the greatest precision, like that of a sniper, shot it straight into Mike's face. The music started and they had their customary first dance. I watched as they twirled and spun. But, what I didn't notice was one of the cousins came up to me. I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked, and it was Tanya. "Oh, hello Tanya. How are you this evening?"

"Edward wasn't lying when he said you were such a gentleman Mr. Jacobs. May I sit?"

"Of course." Before she even moved the chair, I was up and holding it out for her.

"My my, you are a gentleman."

"My mother raised me to be sort of old fashioned."

"I see. From what I heard them tell us in the letter, you left your dimension and came to ours. That must have been hard to leave your family and friends behind."

I wasn't even able to take a sip of my champagne when she said that. "I didn't have many friends before I left my home. Just people I met on Facebook. My parents on the other hand, I didn't mind leaving. My step dad was a drunk, or I guess a 'functioning alcoholic' as he would put it. My mom, she was the type that no matter what you did or said, she was always right."

"Sounds rough. But what family isn't dysfunctional?"

"Funny you should say that. With mine, we always joked we put the fun in dysfunctional."

"Really?"

"Yeah. We would joke about the stupidest things. For example, we would go out to eat sometimes, and we would joke with our waiter or waitress that one of us shouldn't have sharp objects like a fork or steak knife," I told her with a smile.

"Sounds like those poor folks got a good treat huh?"

"Yeah, we got a few chuckles from them sometimes. Other times, we got stared at," I guffawed.

"Sounds like you had fun with them," she mused.

"Yeah. Unfortunately, the portal was a one way trip. I didn't want to go back. Watching my parents die," I said putting my head in my hands. "If I would've had to deal with another loved one dying, I would've gone crazy." I chuckled. "You know, since this is a parallel universe where vampires, werewolves, and almost all things mythical exist, I wonder if I'm here, in this dimension at all."

"I would advise against it. Running into you here, would probably have the worst consequences imaginable. It could possibly tear a hole in the very fabric of space and time."

"I figured as much." I took a sip of my champagne, and saw that Edward and Bella were nowhere to be seen. I quieted my brain and tuned out the background noise around me. I listened, and heard the pair of them talking to someone. 'Jake!' I listened to the conversation with more intensity. It seemed that I caught the tail end of it though.

'I'm not putting anything off! And yes, I can have a real honeymoon! I can do anything I want! Butt out!'

'Oh crap,' I thought to myself.

'What,' I heard Jake gasp. 'What did you say?'

'About what…? Jake? What's wrong?'

'What do you mean? Have a real honeymoon? While you're still human? Are you kidding? That's a sick joke Bella!'

'I said butt out, Jake. This is so not your business. I shouldn't have…we shouldn't even be talking about this. It's private—'

He must've grabbed her because the next thing I heard was, 'Ow, Jake! Let go!'

Iran to the woods as fast as I could.

'Bella! Have you lost your mind? You can't be that stupid! Tell me you're joking!'

I had enough. "JAKE! KNOCK IT OFF!"

"Get your hands off her!" I heard an angry Edward yell.

"Get out of here rubber man. This doesn't concern you."

"Like hell it doesn't! You came here at the request of Edward, her husband. You couldn't handle it. You couldn't handle the fact even though you both knew that you could have had a life together. You also knew after you talked with her, that no matter what, she was going to choose him every time. You couldn't handle the fact, that even though you told each other you love the other, you ran. You ran like a little boy does when he doesn't get what he wants. She wanted you to be her best man Jake. She wanted you to be here, one of her best friends in the whole world, to finally have the both of you at a continuous cease fire. She just wanted the two of you to finally get along."

"And now, look at what you've done; ruined the most perfect of days in a young woman's life. You ruined this Jake, and now you'll have to live with the fact that she might never, in all of eternity, ever want to see you again."

"Jake, bro, back away," Seth came in. "You're losing it."

Jake was frozen where he was, his horrified eyes wide and staring.

"You'll hurt her," Seth whispered. "Let her go."

"Now!" Edward snarled.

Surprisingly, Jacob's hands dropped to his sides, and Edward rushed to her. There was a whoosh of air, and they were at the edge of the forest. Seth had his arms around Jake's shaking form, and tugging him away I saw two large wolves come out of the woods behind us. If he phased with Seth so close, there was no knowing what type of damage he could do.

"C'mon Jake. Let's go."

"I'll kill you," Jake said icily with rage. His eyes were burning with hatred toward Edward and me. "I'll kill you myself! I'll do it right now!"

The biggest wolf, the black one, who I know was Sam growled sharply.

"Seth, get out of the way," Edward translated.

Jake was surprised to see this. Seth was able to pull him a few feet farther away. "Don't do it, Jake. Walk away. C'mon."

Sam joined Seth then. He put his big muzzle against Jake's chest and shoved. With the three of them, Seth towing, Jake trembling, and Sam pushing all disappeared into the darkness. The chocolate brown one, Quil I was guessing stared after them.

"I'm sorry," Bella whispered to him.

"It's alright now Bella," Edward murmured.

Quil looked at Edward, his gaze not friendly. Edward gave him a cold nod. Quil huffed, turned and vanished with the others.

I decided to say something. "I'm sorry about Jake Bella. I should've told you this would happen."

Edward turned to me then. "You knew about this, and didn't bother to tell us? Adrian, she could've gotten hurt! Maybe even killed!"

"Don't you think I don't know that?! I told you before, if I would've given you the last book, you wouldn't even want to go on your honeymoon, let alone have Jake show up here," I spat.

"Wait, what about our honeymoon Adrian? Does something happen while we're gone?" Bella asked worried.

"No, nothing happens while you're away. I'm sorry I have to do this to you, but I still can't say what's going to happen." I felt a push on my mind. "Edward, you're still going to come up with nothing in my head. You have to find the courage, and the strength for what will happen. That's all I can say." I left the woods, and went to the garage. I got in my Batmobile, and peeled out the drive. I drove for what seemed like a few minutes. Then, when I looked at the clock, it said I drove for five hours. 'I must be either in California or fucking Canada right about now.' I looked out my window, and there was a sign that said I was in San Francisco. 'I better go home. Bella and Edward are probably on their way to their honeymoon. Everyone else is probably worried sick about me.' I turned around and headed back.
