Chapter Fourteen:

Shoreline Shenanigans

Jake POV:

To say I was excited about the beach party-like outing would be an understatement. My family of brothers were currently making fun of me, but I could care less!

"Jake! Let's go, we want to beat the lee-Cullens to First Beach!" Jared yelled at me. I growled when he started to call the Cullens leeches. Needless to say he corrected himself. I got up and yanked my cutoffs on. We all left then, and succeeded in beating the Cullens there by a few minutes.

BPOV:

I'm glad the La Push gang allowed my family and I to come for a beach party. I – Alice – had fun choosing a bikini for me to wear. After she settled on her decision, she (and Rose) proceeded to choose one for herself.

My bikini was black, with strips of colors around the bottom of the front, and across the back of the bottoms. Alice also picked out a pair of sheer long pants for me to wear over them. Alice chose a black string bikini with a skull and cross bones on the front of her left side and on the right of the back. To complete her outfit, she put on a zip front hoodie with a skull and cross bones on the back of that too. Rose picked out one that looked like it was stained glass, and she decided her outfit was complete with a semi-short skirt, matching her bikini in the same blue color. The girls and I went back downstairs and we all left the house as a family – okay, Edward carried me bridal style, happy now! Sadly, the La Push gang was already there upon our arrival.

Edward put me down and I called, "Jake!" and ran over him for our usual hug. As I got closer, I launched myself into thin air and threw my arms around my best friend.

"Bella," he breathed, unconsciously pulling me closer to him. Looking back, this probably wasn't the best thing to do…but o well.

EPOV:

I carried my Bella to the beach since she wouldn't be able to keep up with the rest of us is she ran. Alice volunteered, but I declined. I ran as fast as possible for me, only stopping when we reached the beach. The mutts were already there, and as soon as let Bella get down, I wish I hadn't immediately.

She yelled to Jake, and then I saw her jump – literally – into his arms for a hug. I was even more upset when I saw him pull her closer. My heart – or what was left of it – dropped when my sharp eyes didn't see her pull away. Damn, I thought. This makes my day.

Jake POV:

As soon as I let go of Bella, I started to tickle her. She knew what I was doing because she was the one who came up with the game a long time ago.

Once upon a time, she was taller and stronger than me, so she started tickling me until I yelled, "I love you Bella!" And then the loser had to kiss the winner.

Now as of late I was the one stronger and taller, so I could pin her easily. She began turning red in a matter of minutes, so I was prepared when she yelled, "I love you Jake! NOW STOP!"

I did, and when she got up and composed herself, I tapped my cheek pointedly. "I'm waiting."

She huffed, "If it were anyone but you Jacob Black, if it were anyone but you." Then she gave in and kissed my cheek quickly. In the next second, I saw a small glimmer on her left ring finger. She was marrying Edward, no doubt.

I pulled her into a bone-crunching hug. "Congratulations Bella! I'm so happy you're happy." And then I was the one who gave her a peck on her cheek.

EPOV:

What. The. Truck. Why is she telling that mutt she loves him? More importantly why is my Bella, my fiancé Bella, telling him she loved him? I ran over to Bella and faced the mutt.

"Jake." I stated. He backed away from Bella immediately.

"Edward, how are things? I heard from Bella you were engaged. Congratulations." I noticed he was being oddly formal.

"Well we were planning on that." I said to him in reply. I knew that at this point my eyebrows were raised, and my eyes were flashing dangerously. It's sad, but I didn't even notice when Bella took a step back.

Emmett, rowdy and stupid as he was, took that opportunity to announce the start of a beach volleyball game. He and Embry were going to be the captains, and Emmett got the first pick. (A/N: Emmett's picks are bold, Embry's are underlined!)

So Emmett took his first pick. "Edward." Of course – I was always his first pick because I could read minds.

"Bella." I wanted to scream, but I resisted the urge.

"Alice." Duh. Alice could see the future!

"Jake." And now I knew that Fate was after me.

"Jasper." This was the time where Rose just looked uncaring. Since she was so picky about her clothes, no on knew she loved to tinker with cars, or love to pay sports. Volleyball as it were, was her absolute favorite (she just liked spiking and hitting people who annoy her).

"Jared."

"Carlisle." He gave Esme a quick kiss, and took his place with the team. Esme usually preferred to be the umpire / referee in the games we played (she wanted us to stay honest). Today, she had some more help, because Sam asked to referee with her today.

"Paul."

"Rosalie." The mutts started sniggering, thinking they got the better pick. How wrong they were, but they'd find out soon enough.

"Quil." Now everyone was on a team, and the game started. Rosalie served first, and the dumb mutts moved in!

She tossed it up and sent it sailing over the net. Jared leapt to get it but missed it by a hair.

General POV:

As the game progressed, the vampires and werewolves really got close to being friends.

Two hopeful hearts two lands apart
Together there's no end
To what a dream can start
Like two eagles soar as one
Upon the river of the wind
With the promise of forever
We will take the past and learn how to begin
And we'll build a bridge of love
Between two worlds

With every kiss we'll promise this
We'll find a way to light
The dawn of all we wish
Across the stream of stars we'll reach
An island in the sky
With the moon to guide our way I know
That we can find a home for you and I
And we'll build a bridge of love
Between two worlds

Miles and miles away
Though the journey takes us far
Our love has found a place to stay
If we believe, if we believe
There is no sea, there is no sea
That's wide enough
To keep us from our destiny

Like the snows of every winter melt
And blossom into spring
As the seasons pass, we'll live as one
No what the years ahead may bring
No night is long enough
To end this light that shines on us
We have built a bridge of love
Between two worlds
Yes, we have built a love
Between two worlds

Everything seemed to be going okay, but then Paul started to tremor. Bella launched herself between him and Edward. Jake saw what was going to happen and phased on the fly, slamming into Paul just as he phased. What they didn't realize was that when Jake phased, he grazed Bella's left lower arm. Unknowingly, Jake pushed Paul into the woods to make him calm down. Sam followed quickly after, just as Edward yelled for Carlisle.

"Paul! What made you lose your temper again? And Jake, you acted noble, but you injured Bella!" Sam said, chastising them both, their faces fell when he mentioned Bella.

Just then, things went from bad to worse. "EVERYONE SHUT UP! This isn't the time for disciplinary action, Bella's really bleeding here!" Carlisle screamed, and trust me, when Carlisle Cullen raised his voice, everyone whether mortal or immortal, listens.

The Cullens arranged themselves in a protective stance around Bella, and even they relaxed – somewhat. Jake took this opportunity to try o cut past them. Rose was faster still, and cut in front of him, crouched and snarling. "I'm sorry Jake, but I can't let you near my sister until we know what's wrong." She snarled, acidic. And when Rose talks like that, you'd better listen to her words, or else face her wrath. Jake backed down.

"Guys. This isn't good. Jake cut into her artery. She's loosing blood guys, and it's not stopping or clotting.

Edward stepped forward and addressed Sam. "Sam, I need your consent to turn her. She's loosing too much blood, and I can't lose her. Sam started to open his mouth, but someone beat him to it.
