I'm so so so so so so so so so so so so so so soooooo sorry it took me forever to update but i was having major writers block. But I finally got over it and so now i can post. I'm warning you know, those of you who are bothering to read this, this chapter is very short but that's because i felt what happens next needs to be it's own chapter so it's slightly a filler but not really because thereare things in this chapter that are rather important to the story. Anyway enjoy it. And hopefully i will have the next chapter up sometime tomorrow!

Chapter 11
Bella walked into the Lodge and met up with Jacob. He kissed her chastely and took her around to meet his relatives. The evening was going incredibly slow for Bella. She was anxiously awaiting the moment when her lawyer would come in the doors and save her from her misery.
It was the thought of being back in Edward's arms that kept Bella going through the night. They were preparing to sit down and begin eating when Bella's lawyer came in to the Lodge. He spotted Bella and began walking towards her.
"Mr. Smith what brings you here?" Bella asked.
"Well I'm afraid to inform you that your divorce papers are incomplete."
"What? I thought he signed."
"He did. You didn't."
"What?" Bella asked shocked.
She looked at the papers and sure enough (as planned) she hadn't signed the divorce papers. Jacob came over to see what the commotion was.
"Well Bella dear just sign the papers and we can move on." He told her.
"Umm… does anyone have a pen with them?" She asked frantically.
"Oh I've got one. Never leave the house without it." Jacob's grandfather said handing Bella a pen.
She took the papers into her hands and leant over to sign but paused. Again she "tried" to sign her name but failed.
"Bella dear what seems to be the problem?"
"I can't do this. You don't want to marry me Jake you really don't."
"And why is that?"
"Because I'm a terrible person who doesn't deserve you. See the thing is I fell in love with another man many years ago and I never stopped loving him. You deserve someone who is fully devoted to you. I'm sorry."
After Bella said this Jacob's mother came fuming over to their side.
"Take that back you ungrateful bitch!" She demanded.
"Whoa there. You really have no need to talk to my daughter that way." Renee cut in. "She was honest with your son now the least you can do is respect what she has said and move on with it."
"Oh yes cause that's so easy all of New York is expecting Jacob to marry Bella. It just looks simply awful if he doesn't actually marry her! Not that you would understand that. You small town whore!" Jacob's mother retorted.
"Hey don't you dare talk to my mom like that!" Bella said as she pulled back her arm and punched Jacob's mom square on the nose. She fell back onto the floor screaming in pain.
"Now if you'll excuse me I have somewhere I need to be. Alice, mom, dad let's go." Bella said turning on her heel to leave.
They headed out to their cars and climbed in. Alice drove quickly as to ensure that Bella would be able to sing. They arrived and went in through the back so Edward wouldn't see Bella. Alice got Bella on the list to sing for karaoke and got Bella ready.
It was finally Bella's turn to sing. She took a deep breath and walked out onto the stage.

See i told you it was short but don't worry the next chapter is longer and most likely the final chapter of the story. I was thinking that i could do sort of a like a prequel to show how they got together and what caused Bella to leave. but you all tell me. So tell me what you thought about this chapter and anything else!
