Chapter 10
Bella went home with a grin on her face, Alice's plan was perfect. However, the plan did require that Bella continue with making plans for the wedding… at least until the reception when the plan would be put into action.
Bella pulled into the driveway, and walked up to her house with a slight bounce in her step. By the end of Friday night she would once again be with Edward. Bella knew that what she was about to do would hurt Jacob but she knew she had to do it. Though it would be hard for him to accept it would be better for both of them. Jacob would be able to be with someone who completely and truly loved him and Bella would be able to stay with Edward, whom she knew to be her one true love.
The plan was that on Friday night Bella would go to the rehearsal dinner. However they had managed to get her lawyer in on the plan. Alice had been amazing with her persuasion skills. She could have asked him to jump off a cliff and he would have.
The plan was simple. Friday was the night of both the wedding rehearsal and the grand opening of Edward's club. Bella would have to go to the wedding rehearsal acting perfectly normal. About thirty minutes into it her lawyer would come in telling Bella that she had not signed the forms for divorce. She would try to sign it but in the end she would explain to Jake that she just couldn't marry him. Alice, Bella's parents and Bella would then go to Edward's club. They would all then go to their seats but Alice had a special plan for Bella. During the karaoke part of the opening Bella would go up onto stage. She would say a blurb that would let Edward know that what she was singing was for him. The song Bella would be singing was I Told You So by Carrie Underwood.
Bella hoped that everything would work out and Edward would forgive her for leaving. Alice had reassured her a million times that he would, telling her that the reason Edward had never signed the papers was because he never stopped loving her and he was determined to win her back.
When Bella entered the house she went immediately to the kitchen where her mom was working on dinner.
"Oh Bella Jacob called while you were gone. He's joining us for dinner."
"Great," Bella muttered under her breath. When her mom gave her a strange look Bella explained what she and Alice had planned. By the time she finished her mother had a huge grin on her face. She came over and hugged Bella.
"Oh thank goodness. Edward is definitely far better for you than Jacob!"
Bella smiled and went upstairs to change into more presentable clothes for Jake. About one hour later there was a light knock on the door. Bella went down and opened in to reveal Jacob standing in the doorway. He stepped in giving Bella a quick kiss on the lips. They walked into the kitchen where dinner was waiting. Taking their seats Renee began serving everyone food. Once everyone was served they began eating.
After dinner Jake pulled Bella aside. "Hey will you go for a walk with me?"
"Sure," Bella replied.
They headed out the front door and headed towards the path in the woods.
"So what's up?" Bella asked.
"Not much I just wanted to talk to you alone. I feel like we haven't had a chance to in a while."
"Yeah it has been kind of busy around here."
"Plus you've been spending a lot of time with your friends Alice and Rosalie."
"Well what do you expect they're my best friends and I'm getting married." Or rather staying married to another man that isn't you. Bella thought to herself.
"Yeah I guess that would be normal." Jacob said with a small laugh.
"So do you have what you're going to be wearing for the rehearsal?"
"Yeah, and you will have to wait until then to see it."
"The rehearsal should be really great don't you think?"
"It will be amazing." Bella agreed.
They continued walking through the forest making small talk until the sunset. Once the sun had set Jacob headed back to his hotel. Bella went back inside to join her mom in the kitchen.
"I can't wait until Friday," Bella said in an exhasperated voice.
"You'll make it I promise."
"Well I'm going to go on up to bed. Night." Bella said giving her mom a hug and heading up to her room.
Friday morning…
It was finally the day of the reception. Bella woke up in a good mood excited for what was to come. She showered and waited for Alice to come over with her dress. Alice showed up about half an hour later with two dresses make-up and hair products in tow.
They headed up to Bella's room as soon as Alice showed up. Alice had Bella practice the song she would be singing over and over so it would be perfect. They practiced for hours then started to get ready for the reception that was starting at five. Bella was wearing a dark blue strapless dress that would be fitting for both the rehearsal and the club. Alice had curled Bella's hair so it tumbled beautifully down her back.
Alice was wearing a dress similar to Bella's only it was black with a white bow beneath the bust. Once they were both ready they headed out to Alice's Porche and headed to the rehearsal dinner. With Alice's fast driving they pulled up to the lodge in no time. Bella took a deep breath before getting out of Alice's Porche and heading inside.
