Chapter 28: Real Life Wedding Crashers

I'm a patient person. Most of the time. This being one of those situations, where patience just isn't on my side. Ana and I have been laying in our room, not speaking. Just listening, and waiting. The sound of a car pulling up in the driveway has me bolting up right, my eyes catching Ana's. I rush to the window and look down. What I see catches me completely off guard. Shit. Its ruined. The plan will never work,' I think to myself, immediately trying to change my course of thought. 'Sunshine, California, make-up,' I chant over and over again in my head as I grab a scrap piece of paper from the desk. I scribble hastily across it and thrust it into Ana's surprised hands. She looks at me curiously before she looks down at the paper,' Edward's here, think of anything else but you know what,' her lips forming a small o in surprise as she reads. I scribble another note on the other side of the paper and rush to Jasper's room. I don't stop long enough to knock, I just slam through the door, catching Jasper, naked and off guard. He snaps a towel off of his bed wrapping it quickly around his waist.

" Sorry," I blurt out quickly feeling only slightly embarrassed.

" What the hell? Don't you know how to knock?" Jasper asks, his voice full of annoyance.

" I said I was sorry, here," I say thrusting the paper at him. He snatches the paper from my hand and reads it, understanding washing over his face.

" Okay listen, you and Ana," he starts saying looking up his face turning slightly red. I cast a look over my shoulder and see Ana standing there, her face bright red. ' Well the sneak peak at Jasper, should keep her mind busy,' I think to myself smiling uncontrollably. " Okay uhm, what was I saying? Oh yeah, you and Ana go in your room, blast your music and think of anything and everything but that, okay? I will take care of this," he says hastily throwing on a shirt. I simply nod my head and walk out of his room, I make it half way into my room when I notice that Ana isn't behind me. I turn around, rolling my eyes when I realize that she is frozen in Jasper's doorway. I grab her arm pulling her behind me, slamming our bedroom door firmly behind me. I start laughing when I turn on the stereo turning it up as loud is it will go. I flop onto my bed and listen to the music saying the lyrics in my head over and over again so that is the only thing on my mind. I look over and see Ana sitting on her bed with her guitar in her hands and she strums the strings in rhythm with the song. I close my eyes singing the songs in my head, waiting, and trying my hardest not to think about just how close we are coming to losing any and all chances of not stopping this wedding.

Jasper's POV

I stand in the heat of the shower, hot water running over my head and I think. Seems to me I have been doing that a lot lately, and its mostly about Ana. Okay, its all about Ana. She has somehow managed to sneak in and plant herself in the middle of my every thought, whether I am awake or asleep. I snap off the water. I have to talk to her somehow, get her to listen, make her see just how sorry I am. Make her mine. I step into my room, running a towel lazily over my head. Once everything is cleared up with Edward and Bella, I will make everything right with her again. If I'm not too late. I drop the towel wrapped around my waist just as someone bursts through my door.

I reach for my bed scrambling to grab my discarded towel shooting an annoyed glance at Jade.

" Sorry," Jade blurts outs, feeling a tiny bit embarrassed. Well obviously nudity doesn't worry this girl.

" What the hell, don't you know how to knock?" I ask, annoyed that she caught me so off guard. She looks at me quickly rolling her eyes slightly.

" I said I was sorry, here," she says thrusting a piece of paper at me. I snap it from her hands reading it, immediately understanding why she didn't knock.

" Okay listen, you and Ana," start saying, a sudden wave of embarrassment flooding over me, hitting me like a brick wall. I look up and over Jade's shoulder, catching Ana staring in shock, her beautiful face painted deep red. 'Not exactly what I had in mind for the first time that she see's me naked,' I think to myself losing all focus on what I was saying. " Okay uhm, what was I saying? Oh yeah, you and Ana go in your room, blast your music and think of anything and everything but that, okay? I will take care of this," I say, sliding on a shirt. I turn around in search of a pair of jeans. I rush into the bathroom deciding to just grab the pair that is laying on the floor. 'Think Jasper, think," I say to myself rushing down the stairs the noise of blasting music flowing from Ana and Jade's room. I pull grab my car keys from the table and open the front door in a hurry.

" Oh hey Jazz, where is everyone?" Edward asks, looking at me questioningly.

" Oh out, you know, errands, things of that sort," I say leaning as nonchalantly against my car door as I can.

" Hmm, I see. I kind of need to talk to everyone," he says, his eyes telling me that he is a million miles away and probably not reading into anyone's thoughts but his own.

" Sorry bro, you caught us all at the wrong moment, besides you cant go into the house right now," I say, smiling at him lazily, easily exuding calm.

" Why is that?" he asks, looking at me closely. I can see that I have his attention now. He is only looking into my head now, trying to read what I am thinking. ' Wonder if I will ever work things out with Ana,' I think to myself easily, not having to reach too far for something to think about.

" Fumigating," I say, unlocking the doors to my car.

" Oh, okay well, I guess I will see everyone later," he says, and I can feel the apprehension and stress flowing off of him. I send out as many positive vibes and calm as I can as I watch him walk towards his car. I open my door getting in when he yells to catch my attention.

" Just a question, if the house is being fumigated, why is Ana and Jade's stereo on?" he asks looking at me, as he points to their bedroom window.

" Don't know. They probably forgot to turn it off," I say, and he just smiles walking back to his car. I wait for him to pull out before backing my own car out, going the opposite direction of him. 'I will drive for ten minutes, then go back,' I think to myself. I pick up my cell phone texting Ana. 'He left, be back soon, wanted to make him think I was gone, if he caught on and comes back call me, -J.' I pull to the side of the road resting my head against the steering wheel. That was close, too damn close.

Jade's POV

It seems that Jasper's diversion worked, seeing as how Edward didn't turn around and come right back here. Secretly part of me was wishing that he would, just so I could out all of this now, instead of having to wait so damn long. Then again, that would take all of the fun out of the secrecy and the plans. I move the curtain back from the window and see Alice's car pulling in and I smile knowing that this was it. It all starts now. No turning back. I look over at Ana who is sleeping peacefully on her bed. I shake her shoulder and she opens her eyes slowly.

" Huh?" Ana says, her eyes sliding shut again.

" Alice is here," I say and she wakes up fully, sitting up, running her hand nervously through her hair, " Lets go."

I walk slowly down the stairs Ana dragging her feet behind me. The front door swings open and Alice breezes in, Jacob following behind her.

" Hey guys, heard you had a close call," Alice says, humor lighting up her face.

" Yeah," I say, reaching the bottom of the stairs hugging Alice tightly.

" Well, good thing Jasper can think on his toes. Sorry, Jade, Ana, this is Jacob," she says, stepping out of the way. I assess him quickly. He's cute. His size catches me off guard, as he towers over me. His dark hair pulled back into a pony tail, his skin dark with underlying tones of red, his heritage showing through his strong bones.

" Hello," Jacob says, fatigue and stress apparent in his voice.

" Hi," Ana and I say in unison. I don't think either of us are sure how to react around him. I cast a look at Ana, and realize that she is not only nervous, but slightly scared. It must be his size. This boy was outrageously tall. Though she would never admit it, I think she has a bit of a complex when it comes to how short she is. We stand in an awkward silence before Alice clears her throat breaking the silence, and the tension.

" Why don't we all sit down," she says, her smile beaming brightly. I follow her and Jacob into the living room and sit down, Ana standing in the doorway nervously playing with her fingers.

" So, I pretty much caught Jacob up with everything," Alice says, bouncing in her seat.

" Well that's good," I say, feeling like that particular weight was lifted from my shoulders. How awkward would that have been. Hi Jacob, how are you? I know you don't know me, but I just want you to know that your girlfriend is tricking the man that I am in love with into marrying her by claiming that the child that she is carrying is his, when it really isn't. Not exactly a conversation I was looking forward to having. Alice picks up the conversation quickly, keeping the room full of our voices, and after a while I drift out of the conversation staring out of the window. I hear the door open and feel somewhat nervous thinking that Edward is going to come strolling through the front door, catching us in our secret meeting. Thank God it's Emmett and Rosalie.

" Hey Jacob, its been a long time," Emmett says, clapping his hand in Jacob's smiling broadly. Rosalie hugs him tightly whispering something in his ear, making him smile.

" Okay well, it look like we are all here, " Rosalie says, looking around. " Wait, where is my brother?"

" Probably still up in his room, trying to recover from Ana seeing him naked," I blurt out, cringing at what I just said.

" Oh my God no way, her virgin eyes have been tainted," Emmett says between loud spouts of laughter.

" Shut up," Ana hisses out, going red from head to toe.

" Sorry," I mouth to her and she happily flips me the bird. " Aww, I love you too Annalisa."

" Mhm, sure you do," she says, smiling at me brightly. Jasper comes walking down the stairs almost as if he knew that everyone was talking about him and Ana's embarrassing moment.

" Hey everyone, so have we decided how we are going to tackle this problem?" Jasper asks, sitting on the arm of the couch Ana is sitting on. With that the room erupts with voices everyone talking over each other.

" I'm just saying, I don't understand why I have to wear a dress," I say, my voice annoyed.

" Jade, stop. It's like Alice said you cant go to a wedding in jeans," Ana says, smiling as she finished her make up.

" Yeah, but there isn't going to be a wedding. We have to get there in time to stop it," I say, scooting her out of the way of the mirror.

" Well you know what I mean," she says, running a reassuring hand down my back. I finish my make up hastily, leaving the room quickly walking down the stirs where everyone is waiting. Everyone looks good, like they are all straight out of a bridal magazine. Good thing Jacob and Emmett are so close in size.

" Okay, we better leave know. Its getting close to the time," Alice says grabbing her purse. We all walk outside and I press a hand nervously to my stomach as I watch everyone piling into their own cars. Jacob with Alice. Rose and Emmett in his jeep. Me, Jasper, and Ana in the Explorer. I slide into the backseat, praying that time is on our side.

I didn't realize how long we were in the car, time just seemed to fly by. I stare out of the car window looking at the court house looming down at me. My heart slams into my chest and I seriously feel like I can throw up at any moment.

" There they are," Ana says, pointing out of the window. I follow where she is pointing and my heart slams into my throat. There's Edward, his hair its normal mess, dressed in simple black slacks and a white button down shirt. Bella stands close to him, her hand fussing with his collar. Her brown hair pinned up, dressed in a cream colored dress. " You going to be okay?" I turn my attention to Ana and nod. I climb out of the car and wipe my hands on my dress nervously. Somehow we all came to the decision that Alice, Jacob, Jasper and I would be the only ones to actually talk to them, while Rose, Em, and Ana laid in wait in the cars, watching on for any signs of trouble. Jasper wraps a comforting arm around my shoulder leaning his head down to whisper in my ear.

" Don't worry, its going to be okay," Jasper says, and calm falls over me as I start walking toward Edward and his bride-to-be.

Bella notices us first, knowledge sparking in her eyes as she looks down the line of us. Her eyes staying on Jacob for a long time. Edward follows her gaze and his smile falters. We stop in front of them, and a perilous silence falls.

" What are you guys doing here?" Edward asks, his voice calm and controlled.

" Ask Bella, she knows what we are doing here," I say, looking at her, not taking my eyes off her face. Annoyance and anger flicker in her eyes.

" I have no idea what you are talking about," Bella says, crossing her hands over her protruding belly.

" Oh, but you do," Alice hisses out.

" You will not talk to her that way Alice," Edward says immediately coming to Bella's aid.

" You wont boss me around Edward," she says back and I fight the urge to smile over this sibling squabble.

" Bella, what you are doing isn't right," Jacob speaks up, his voice filled with emotion.

" You know nothing," Bella says, her façade of calm and control wavering and breaking.

" You know that I know. Just like you know that everyone who stands here, except for Edward, knows," he says, and he grimaces at the first few tears that slip down her paling cheeks.

" Bella what is he talking about?" Edward asks, searching her face for some kind of answer.

" Edward, don't you see, they are just trying to break us apart," she whispers out, tears falling rapidly.

" Look, I cant dance around this anymore. Alice saw the baby, Edward. Alice also saw that the baby isn't yours," I blurt out, and everyone grows silent. Edward stares at me, pain warring in his eyes.

" Why are you doing this Jade," Edward asks, the anger in his voice slamming into me like a hot fist.

" I'm doing this because you aren't the father. She is tricking you. We all love you too damn much to watch you make this mistake, to be tricked into a marriage with someone who would lie to about you fathering a child isn't something we will let happen," I say, my own anger meeting his lick for lick.

" Shut up. Your just mad that Edward doesn't love you like he loves me," Bella screams at me and I turn to her.

" You shut up. How dare you come here after all this time and try to trick Edward back into a relationship, YOU left, by using an innocent life. Do you not realize what you are doing? How hurt he would be the day that child is born and he realizes that she isn't his? Are you truly that selfish of a person? Does it really bother you that much that Edward was starting to find happiness with someone else?" I ask, my voice raising with anger and pain. She stares at me in angry silence.

" Is this true Bella?" Edward asks, turning his attention to her.

" Edward, its more complicated than that, I never meant," she starts saying, tumbling over her words. She reaches her hand out to touch him and he just pulls away from her.

" I cant believe this. I cant believe you," he says, backing away from her, before turning and walking away.

" You did this, this is your fault, you stupid bitch," Bella spits at me. I feel pity for her, mostly because she doesn't realize that it was her selfishness that caused all of this, but mostly because she cant open her eyes and realize that Jacob stood and heard everything that was being said, and she very well might be flying back to Arizona, a single mother.

" I think you and I have some talking to do," Jacob says, walking towards her. He takes her arm in his leading her away from the group and I sigh, somewhat relieved.

" You guys go ahead, I have to find Edward," I say, walking away from everyone, wrapping my arms around me.

I walk halfway down the block when I find Edward. Sitting alone on a park bench his head in his hands. I take a deep breath, standing in front of him.

" Edward," I say, and he looks up, his eyes rimmed with red.

" How long has everyone known?" Edward asks, his voice shaky.

" A few days," I say, sighing as I slide my finger through my hair.

" And this is how you guys decided to tell me? By letting me come so close to marrying her? What, was this some sort of sick entertainment for everyone?" he spits out, anger winning momentarily over the pain in his voice.

" Oh shut up will you? Come on Edward, honestly. If Alice or Jasper, or I would have come to you a few days ago and told you all of this would you have believed any of us? Alice saw what she saw. She also saw that as soon as you decided to marry her your mind was set, unchangeable," I say, my voice raising at him.

" That's not the point," he says, sitting back against the bench closing his eyes. " The point is someone should have told me."

" Okay your right," I say, " but you also have to understand why we did it this way. Don't you realize how much we all love you?" He looks up at me slowly a small smile flirting with his lips.

" Are you included in that 'we'" he asks, and I smile slightly.

" You know that I am," I say, looking at him deeply. " Edward, you have to know. I love you. I love you enough to say to you right now, that if you can honestly look me in the face and tell me that you are in love with her despite what you know, I will let you go. I will walk away. I will stand and watch you marry her if you are still in love with her. I am usually a selfish person when I find something that I want, but I love you, and I am willing to let that all go if you could honestly look at me and tell me that its her you want," I say, my voice shaking, tears threatening to fall. I watch as he gets to his feet and walks towards me. He brushes a hand along my cheek and smiles.

" You never stop amazing me Jade," he says, leaning in pressing his lips against mine. He deepens the kiss as tears start falling down my face. He pulls away leaning his forehead against mine.

" Bella will always be a part of me, but she is a part of my past. You, your what I want for my future," he says, and I fell apart, tears of joy falling down my face as he wraps his arms tightly around me. Mission accomplished, and a damn fine job was done if I do say so myself.
