(Jasper's point of view)
"Congrats Emmett! We're all so proud of you!" I smiled as we did our manly hug. He went around hugging and smiling with everyone, I couldn't help but smile too.
"Awwww Emmett, congratulations!" Emmett gave Bella a bear hug. Jacob stood by looking awkward. Smart choice, keep your mouth shut.
"Guys, you remember Jacob?" He stood with his hands in his pockets shuffling from one foot to another. He seemed nervous.
"Hello. Congrats man. It's pretty serious when you graduate." He shook Emmett's hand. Edward looked away, not even acknowledging him.
"Hey Jacob! Long time no see." Alice was nice enough to talk.
"Yes it has been a while, how are you?" Carlisle asked genuinely.
He rubbed his neck and mumbled 'good', but I could tell something was up. The tension was so thick, that Esme along with Carlisle volunteered to get the car.
"So…call me later?" Bella beamed. Are you serious?
"Sure. We should hang out before you leave." They hugged and he finally walked away.
"So…Buffalo WildWings anyone?" I asked. They cheered in agreement. This was going to be a long dinner.
(After Dinner)
We decided to go to a Party afterwards. Carlisle and Esme left to be alone and Bella decided to go home. Or at least she said she was. It bothered me how this kid I just met was creating a gap in my relationship with Bella.
"Dude, you ok?" Emmett asked. He sat down on the steps with me. I wasn't in the mood to party, I guess that's why he found me outside with a half filled cup of some drink.
"Yea, I'm good." I threw back the drink. He laughed.
"You are lying. Out of all of us, you are the life of the party. What's up?" He set his cup down and faced me with a serious face. I knew I had his attention. I sighed, because even without him using his power, I wanted to tell him.
"It's just that…this..this Jacob kid shows up out of nowhere and she melts. I don't get it." I ranted. I got up and started pacing when Edward, Rosalie and Alice came to join us.
"What's so special about him anyway?" Edward seemed mad. What did he have to do with this?
"Jacob is Bella's best friend. She used to love him and Edward, but she realized she couldn't pick between them." Then it all clicked. The love triangle.
All of a sudden, we all got so mad. I hit a light post knocking it down, Edward cursed every word of profanity he knows, Rosalie started kickboxing the heck out of the porch swing, and Alice literally saw red. I know because I saw red fire too. Emmett must've projected his anger.
"Who the heck does he think he is to waltz in here and try to claim Bella as his own?" Emmett angrily screamed. I picked up a car and threw it like a football. I was pissed, and combined, I'm sure we'd be lethal.
"Rose where you going?" We paused. She stepped along the sidewalk.
"To find Bella." I started after her, but Edward stopped me.
"Let her talk to her. It'll work like a charm. Trust me."
