I did however use my band of Edward Stealing Monkeys to capture Jacob Black fresh from the mind of Stephenie Meyer.

-Draw Back the Curtains-

My feet continued to push forward, widening the distance between me and misery─ forks.

Famine and fatigue are beginning to drain my body. How much longer can I go without food? As much pain it would cause me I can't suppress the need to return. A part of me wants to return, in hopes that everything would be back to the way it was before

he returned. The larger part of me longs to return to see her.

This part of me needs to see her happy. Even the knowledge of the pain this will inflict is no match for the─ comfort I'll get in exchange. I need to know that she doesn't regret her decision.

If she is content with her new life… with that… leech. I gritted my teeth at the thought of such a thing. I'll just accept that, and endure the suffering.

As I confirmed my actions, my feet glided in the direction of which I came. I wasn't aware of the date. I had been lost in my thoughts, and my attempted escape that time held no value. I began to replay the days that have passed but still came up short on the subject.

How I miss Emily's cooking. I've deprived myself of a good meal for… I decided it was best not decipher the exact amount of time.

I had a sudden burst of energy. Ironic as it may seem, I couldn't get back to forks fast enough. I was soaring as fast as I could go, the blur of trees did not ease my anxiety. This need was growing stronger, with every second it took to reach my destination. Now I can't help but wonder what effects it might cause. Pain has shown me no mercy before. I doubt it will be sincere now. I winced at the thought of what torment seeing her happy could─ would bring.

There was no doubt that it would hurt me, to see her content with her decision. What if I couldn't control myself? She could be at risk. NO! I could control myself. I wouldn't ruin her day. I could control myself.

I continued to race the sun home. I tried to not focus on my hunger for more than a few seconds, afraid that it would cause my body to give out. The suns' rise seemed to be in fast motion. Time was on my side.

Time vs. Pain. Could time heal the part of me that could never be whole again? Could time lessen the ache that dwelled in my heart? The ache─ that I have since became so attuned to. Pain is my worst enemy; it's not on to fight fair. Even though time is a miraculous thing, with it you must have patience. Maybe, time could heal the injuries that love inflicted.

I thought no more of the internal war. I turned my focus on the songs that nature sung.

It wasn't more than 5 hours into running that sleep was beginning to creep up on me. Oh how nice it would be to rest, just for a moment. If I do rest then that means hunger isn't too far away. My legs pushed harder.

I continued to run until my thoughts weren't that of my own. Are you coming home? These thought were calm and collective, no need ask whom. My thoughts weren't so calm, irrational maybe. My answer and the reasoning behind it rushed to the surface. Not allowing me time to block them.Oh, Jacob the wedding is today. Charlie will be down soon to pick up Billy. I didn't care. I need to know that she doesn't have second thoughts. I'll meet you up and bring you some clothes, the calm voice said fading as he phased.

I was alone again but not for long. My body was weak but my will was strong. I won't stop.

Sam and I met up, and I was grateful for the clothes. I walked along his side, but I didn't are meet his eyes. I didn't need a lecture on what the outcome of my actions would cause. This is something that I had to do─ for me.

Sam didn't ask any questions and didn't push for any answers. Once again, I was grateful. When we got to my house Sam waited on my couch as I went up to my room. I was still debating on attire. Should I wear something for a wedding? Should I stay in the background? Ugh! Why didn't think this through before hand?

I decided to go with a casual outfit. I wasn't going to sit in the wedding. I was going to stand in the background, and hopefully the bloodsuckerswouldn't notice. I changed my clothes and made my way downstairs. Why didn't it surprise me that Quil and Embry would be awaiting me downstairs?

"Hey, Jake." Quil was to first to greet me.

"Hey, man." Embry said with a huge grin.

I tried to fight off the grin that was seeping on my face, but it was contagious.

"Hey, guys" I said with a smile while I studied their clothes. They both were dressed in evening attire─ I think that's what it's called. The must of seen my smile dim.

"Look man, we were on our way to the wedding, we didn't know you'd be back. If you'd like we won't even go" Quil quickly blurted out, in response to my facial expression.

"No, I'm on my way there too. I'm just going to stay in the background though." I didn't even turn to meet Sam's eyes that were on my neck. He kept all of his comments to himself as we made our way to forks. That's something I've always like about Sam his respect for personal space. Not like these two.

"So, what made you guys want to go?" I asked truly curious.

"Well, we like… er… Bella. And we wanted to see, she was kinda our friend too Jacob." Embry spoke up. Hmmm. I guess she was their friend also. Funny I always thought of her as my Bella.

"Ok, fair enough."

"Can I ask you something Jake?" Quil paused, so I gave him a nod in approval. "Well, why did you come back? Why now?"

I didn't speak and answer, in hopes that Quil would let the question subside. As we drew near the scent of them grew stronger. I stopped within the shadows and allowed my brothers to go forward.

-NOTE- Okay so I know. I suck writing from Jacob's view point. My apologies. I probally didn't do Alice much justice either. Sorry. I would of made the chapter longerbut writers block and my brother are 2 very vile things.
