Author's Note:
Alright, let's get a few things straight, kay?
As of right now, Laurent and Bella don't feel anything but a close friendship, they're just best friends, that's all. There are no romantic ties involved here. Just thought I'd clear that up.
And excuse me while I rant…
JACOB IS NOT EVIL. HE WAS NOT EVIL IN NEW MOON, AND HE IS NOT EVIL NOW.
Think about it, one of his good friends has been bitten by a vampire. She also happens to be dating a vampire. Put yourself in Jacob's shoes, what would you think when you saw Bella's sudden lack of humanity? I highly doubt you would automatically assume, "Oh, some other vampire from the coven that attacked her last year wanted revenge." Besides the fact, Jacob didn't even know about the attack by James, remember?
Vampires are natural enemies of werewolves. He is automatically going to hate Edward, because of what he is. Edward is going to automatically hate him as well. That's life people, they are mortal enemies. (Well… neither of them are mortals exactly, but you get the idea.)
Sure, he was being a total jerk to Edward, but Laurent wasn't exactly being Mr. Nice Guy either, and neither was Edward. So, don't get all on Jacob. Why don't you look at things from his point of view?
Jacob isn't dying, FYI.
He is just trying to protect Bella. And for the record as well, the Denali coven has another treaty too, hence the war. It's going to get a tad complicated, so bear with me.
I'm going to repeat one more thing, and then I'll work on the next chapter.
Jacob is NOT evil.
I love Jakey.
