POTW chappie 14

With a sigh, I turned fully to face the pack. My mom tensed next to me, holding the dress bag. "Well, this is my mom, Sarah." I said sarcastically, as if we were meeting on the street and talking like normal people. I saw Paul flinch.

"Is that a…dress bag?" He said finally.

"Yes, I'm getting married to Jacob in three days. That would seem logical considering we just came out of a Wedding Dress Store. I mean really." I said. Paul growled. "I'm out, I've tried on like 30 dresses, and I'm tired. If you want to talk to Jake, follow us." I said, and started walking away, as soon as I reached the edge of town, I could run. After all, it was how we had got here.

"Haley, wait." My mom said, startling me.

"What?" I asked.

"Which one of these werewolves ripped your arm off?" She asked casually. I raised my eyebrows.

"Oh, that would be Quil." I clarified.

"Which one of you is Quil?" She addressed the pack. There was a moment of dangerous silence.

"I am." Said Quil from the back, obviously afraid that my mom was going to kill him.

"Lovely." Said my mom pleasantly. Then she glared, and even I was scared.

"If you even show up at the wedding, or if I ever see you again, you're a dead dog. Understand?" she snarled. Quil just nodded. "Let's go honey." My mom said, pleasant once more. Wondering if my mom was bi-polar, we walked away. Once we reached the edge of town, we ran.

As we arrived on the front step, Alice came out of the house, grinning. "Nice once Sarah! From my vision, that mutt looked like he was going to-"

"Ok!" I said loudly, and walked into the house.

Alice was already inside, saying she loved the dress we picked out, yada yada. I flopped onto the couch, exhausted. Jake, who was next to me, put me in his lap.

"Why do you smell like Paul?" He asked, more surprised than angry.

"They were in town, my mom bitched them out, and I told them if they wanted to talk to you, to come here and ask for you." Jake smiled.

"I can smell him outside, I better go." I kissed him once, than got up. "Be back in a sec." He said, and ran out. Alice appeared next to me.

"Good, now that you're free, I want to try some up dos and some make up choices. I have to match them to the dress." With a sigh, I got up, and walked upstairs so Alice could play wedding Barbie.

I winced as Alice pulled some of my hair a little too tight, and picked up the picture of the church were Esme wanted the wedding to be. As I studied the picture, I felt a little nervous. This looked really big. "Who are we all inviting?" I asked.

Esme's smile vanished. "Just a few people." She said innocently.

"How many is a few? I just want family and friends. I don't want a big production Esme." I warned, as Alice brushed blush on my cheeks.

"The church holds 300." Esme said casually.

"WHAT?!" I cried, standing up, my dress swirling around me.

"We don't have to have that many…" Esme said, backtracking quickly. I heard someone laugh downstairs.

"You look great Jake." The person continued. But that gave me inspiration. I knew Jake would be on my side.

"Jake!" I yelled, walking over to the door, or should I say, gliding. Stupid dress.

"NOOOO!" Alice screamed, and threw herself over the door. "HE can't see YOU like that until your wedding day!" Alice panted, looking crazy as I folded my arms when she didn't move.

"Haley? Is everything alright?" Jake called worryingly up the stairs.

"Fine!" called Alice shrilly.

'It is not fine! Jake, they want 300 people at the wedding!" I said, ducking Alice's furious punch. There was silence on the stairs.

"300?" asked Jacob. He sounded faint.

"Are in fucking Sparta or something? Yes, Esme wants 300!" I yelled. Alice smacked me when I didn't duck in time, and it sounded like a rock dropping onto rock at high speeds.

"Esme!?!" Jake bellowed.

"Yes Jacob?" Esme asked, deadly calm.

"Friends and family only, or Haley and I will elope." Jacob called up the stairs. Alice gasped, looking horrified.

I pulled the dress off, ripped out my hair, and pulled on some clothes. I wiped my face clean of make up as I walked downstairs after prying Alice off the door. "You're good." I told Jacob, and he grinned.

HALEY POV

I woke up to Alice bouncing on my bed like a maniac. "Today's the day!" She cried happily. I groaned, and rolled over. She started jumping again. Then, I was out of bed and on the floor.

"Hey! Is that anyway to treat the bride!" I said from the floor. She just made my bed, smiling. "Fuck." I muttered, and stood up slowly. Alice immediately whisked me off to the bathroom.

"Take a shower." She ordered. Then, she vanished. With a sigh, I undressed vampire speed, and jumped in the shower. I washed with vanilla scented body wash and shampoo placed or so carefully in the shower for me. I grabbed the towel I had thrown over the side of the door, and got out.

A pair of white stringy lingerie greeted me.

JACOB POV

As soon as I opened my eyes, I was moving. When I finally got down from Emmett, we were in the middle of the woods. "What the-"

"Jacob, it is our duty to get you ready for your wedding." Edward said formally.

"Fabulous. To bad we have all freaking day to get me in a suit. Did you have to wake me up before 10:00?" I whined.

"Yes. Cause you have to get drunk AND sober before the wedding." Jasper said.

"And we have to go to a strip club!" Emmett threw in enthusiastically.

HALEY POV

"Alice, what the hell is this?" I shouted. She appeared next to me.

"You're underwear…DUH." She said.

I rubbed my forehead. This was a lost cause. "Whatever." I sighed after a minute. Alice giggled.

"Ok, put that on, along with the corset, and then we can get you in the dress!" She chirped. Dread filled me.

"Corset?" I gasped.

JACOB POV

I raised my eyebrows. "A strip club?" I asked. They all nodded. "Sounds good to me." I said.

Emmett grinned. "Lets go get you a lap dance and some beer!" he said.

"umm, Emmett?" I said. He sighed.

"Whaaattt?" he whined.

"Can I get some clothes first?" I asked. He frowned.

"Oh yeah. Clothes." He said after a minute.

HALEY POV

I snarled as Alice pulled the corset even tighter. "Stop whining! You don't have to breathe, remember?" She chided.

"yeah, but-" I gasped as she pulled it even tighter. "Damn it." I said, holding on to the bedpost for dear life.

'All done!" Alice said cheerfully. She prodded me into her closet. Then, she gracefully unzipped the dress bag, and helped me get it on.

"Oof." I said, as the dress went over my head. Then Alice was flying around me, making adjusments.

"There." She said proudly.

Then, footsteps on the stairs. Rosalie, Sarah and Esme burst through the door.

"It's time for makeup and hair!" Alice said. Then, they descended on me like vultures.

JACOB POV

"CHUG CHUG CHUG!!!" Emmett shouted, as the beer funnel was filled again with alcohol.

I swallowed.
