"Well, this is you we are talking about Leah." Seth laughed.

I punched his shoulder playfully and he pretended to be hurt. The opening of the door made us both look up. Jacob Black with Nessie in tow came out.

"Here you guys are. I was wondering where you two got off to. You aren't trying to lock everyone inside and burn the building down all "Carrie" style are you Leah?" He asked with a laugh.

"Well, now that you mention it, it does sound like an intriguing idea." I said with a smirk.

"Oh come back in, You got to see Paul and Jared dancing! It's the funniest thing I've seen! Come on." He said turning back to the door. Seth and I followed him back in and to the table where he was sitting with the rest of the Cullen's. I took the open seat next to Rosalie and I noticed the look on her face. Shock and Embarrassment.

"What's with the look?" I asked.

Rose pointed to the dance floor. There was Emmett along with Paul and Jared thrashing around in what I guess was supposed to be some type of dance. I busted out laughing.

"Told you!" Jake laughed. "Is that not funny!"

"My god in heaven…what are they doing?" Seth asked.

"Not following the beat of the song, that's for sure." Edward laughed.

"It's like a car crash, I don't want to look, but I just can't help it." Bella said staring out to the three of them.

"Why don't you join them Bella?" Seth laughed.

"Oh don't make me eat your Clearwater, soon to be step brother or not, I will eat you." Bella said.

"Speaking of soon to be step relations, where's Charlie?" I asked.

"He was unable to get off work." Bella said, "But he said he'd be here to pick up your mom afterwards."

The song changed into a slow song and Emmett came up to the table and lead Rose back to the dance floor.

"Whoa, he's better at the slow dancing." I laughed watching Emmett hold Rose close to him.

"Let's dance darling." Carlise said looking to Esme. She smiled and took his hand.

I watched as the others left the table with their spouses to dance. I watched them all with a soft smile. Jake and Quil holding their little dance partners close to their chest while only swaying back and forth in the spots where they stood. Those two where so wrapped around those little fingers. The Cullen's each holding their mates. Paul was twirling Rachel as she smiled and giggled. Jared with his Kim, her arms locked firmly behind his back. Then there was Emily and Sam. Staring deeply into each other's eyes, like no one else was even in the room. As I watched them, I felt the slight sting in my chest again.

"Hey.. Let's dance." Seth said standing from his chair and holding his hand out to me.

"Seth… Do you honestly want to dance with your big sister?"

"I asked didn't I." He said. I laughed and took his hand.

Seth surprised me with how well he could dance. I looked up to him with a shocked looked.

"What? Am I not allowed to be a good dancer?"

"Of course you are, I'm just shocked is all." I said. Seth laughed and spun me.

After the song ended, I didn't return to the table with the rest. I went to the open bar and got a drink. I knew one wouldn't even register in my body, so I sipped it while leaning against the wall next to the door. As I watched my pack brothers I couldn't keep the smile from my face. These boys were something else. I never knew what to expect from them.

"Trying to escape?" A voice from behind me said. I turned to find Embry standing there.

"Hey Call, I didn't think you could make it." I said.

Embry's Mother was not in the best of health lately. Fighting cancer did that to you, so he had told us all that he would be unable to attend.

"Well, my aunt from Seattle came in to see mom, so I figured I would at least drop by while they are visiting. Did I dress ok?" He asked looking down.

I took a quick look at him. He was wearing a pair of dress slacks and a blue button up dress shirt with a black tie. "Yeah, ya look sharp Embry." I said.

"What are you doing over here in the corner anyways?" He asked.

"Just watching." I said.

"I imagine this day has been pretty hard on you." Embry said taking my drink from my hand and then taking a sip.

"You could say that." I said taking my drink back. " Do you want to go say hi to everyone?" He nodded and I lead him to the table where Jake and Seth were at.

"Hey Embry!" Jake said as he repositioned a sleeping Renesmee on his lap. "Glad you could make it."

"Me too. I think I just stopped Leah from making a break for it." Embry said nudging me with his arm. I rolled my eyes.

"Jake," Bella said standing from the table, "We're going to head out, so I'll be taking my daughter now." She laughed.

"Ok Bells." Jake said, then placed a kiss to the top of Nessie's head before handing her to Bella. "I'll see you guys tomorrow ok. Kiss her once on the head for me when you put her in bed ok."

"Always do Jacob." Bella said with a smile before joining the rest of the waiting Cullen's by the door.

"I'm going to run over and say hi to Sam and Emily." Embry said. Jake and I nodded at him.

"Well, let's dance beta." Jake said grabbing my hand and pulling me from the chair.

The song Jake had asked me to dance to was a bit faster than the slow songs, and Jacob didn't seem to have the dance skills that Seth had, but he wasn't as bad as Paul or Jared. So far he had only managed to step on my foot once.

"So, honestly, how ya doing Leah?" Jake asked.

"Peachy." I laughed. This didn't answer didn't seem to please Jacob. "What do you want me to say Jake?"

"The truth. If you're really ok, then say it, or if you're barely hanging on, say that." He said as he spun us around.

I sighed, "I'm hanging."

"We're all here for you Leah. You know this right?"

"Yeah Jake, I know."

As the song ended, I saw Charlie Swan enter and make his way to Sam and Emily. He spoke for a moment, then Emily hugged him and Sam shook his hand. Next Charlie made his way over to the table where Quil, Claire, Seth and my Mother sat. I grabbed Jake by the arm and lead him over to them.

"Hello Charlie." I said stopping at the table.

"Hello Leah." He said pulling me into a quick hug. "You look stunning."

"Thanks." I said rolling my eyes.

"I'm leaving now sweet heart." Mom said standing from the chair and taking Claire from Quil. "I'm going to keep Claire tonight, so I need to get her home and into bed." Quil started to get up also, "And no you can't come Quil." Mom said. "You can see her in the morning for pete's sake."

Quil looked like someone had taken his favorite toy. Jake and I tried to stop our laughter but was unsuccessful.

"Goodness Quil, it's one night!" Mom said.

"Fine." Quil said. He stood from his chair and placed a soft kiss on Claire's head.

"Bye darlings." Mom said to Seth and I before taking Charlie's hand and heading for the door.

Jake and I took seats at the table with Seth and Quil as Embry came up to join us.

"So, how ya holding up Lee?" Quil asked as he picked apart a cookie that was on a plate in front of him.

"Jeez.. What is with everyone asking me that?" I asked.

"Come on Leah, this is your pack sitting here, we know you've been dreading this day." Jacob said leaning back into the chair.

"Like I've said a thousand times already, I am and will be fine." I said.

As they each looked to me, then each other the song changed to a hip hop song that we all knew to be Quil's favorite.

"Oh! Yes! Leah! Please, please dance with me to this song!" Quil said getting up from his chair.

"Really?" I groaned.

"Come on loca." He said pulling me from the chair.
