The ending goes by movie and by book; decent combination :P Either way, JUST watched Breaking Dawn: Part II. It was so cheesy and so...why did I like it?

Jesum, the ending made it seem like the ultimate love story. And, despite my opinion, I love recaps. 0-o My review on the movie is totally inconclusive because I'm confused as to why I liked it. *salute*

Whelp, anyway, here is your long overdue chapter.

Review?

Lakota's point of view:

I've never pegged Bella as a fast person, but it takes Jacob and me a long time to find her in the crowd of dancing teenagers and over whelming strobe lights. After 10 minutes or so though, we finally catch up and Jacob reaches out and grabs her with his free hand that wasn't holding onto mine, quite effectively cornering her in the overly white and stainless kitchen. Not that I'm complaining because, hey, kitchen. Who would've thought a house full of vampires would even bother? I smile a little to myself and effortlessly map out a very strategic plan to grab as much food as I can within my reach my way out.

And Rachel would never know.

"Friendly reception," Jacob says, snapping me out of my food induced daydream. Looking up at him weirdly at the comment I barely cast a glance over at Bella, up until she snaps at him in a not so friendly way.

"What are you doing here?"

"You invited me, remember?"

"I didn't invite her." I raise an eyebrow and swing my head to look in her direction; my gaze locking on hers in what I assumed was a challenge, testing which one of us would look away first. Whether it was the burst of girlfriend rage that took over or I was just in a bad mood I would make sure as hell I would not be the one to look away first. That is until my stomach growls and my attention is demanded elsewhere, barely containing my pout I wrap an arm around my neglected stomach, in response, Jacob chuckles next to me. Narrowing my eyes slightly I give his hand a hard squeeze, purposely digging my nails into the back of it.

To think he'd get the hint and feed me already.

"You invited me, though, and I just-"

"In case my right hook was too subtle for you, let me translate: that was me uninviting you."

"Don't be a poor sport. I brought you a graduation present and everything." What? I frown, looking up at Jacob before back at Bella. And I'm pretty sure if she wasn't so busy trying to look past Jacob, she would've taken the chance to rub the fact right into my face. I scratch at my nose to keep myself from thinking about it.

"Take it back to the store, Jake. I've got to do something…"

"I can't take it back. I didn't get it from the store – I made it myself. Took a really long time, too." I should really be outraged, seething at the fact that my own boyfriend took his sweet time to make Bella Swan a graduation present. Maybe I should even jealous?

I guess I'd understand if he bought the present and everything… but made it? I smooth out my dress with my free hand before fingering at the homemade birthday necklace Jacob made; an action that went unnoticed by Jacob as he tried to get Bella's attention once again.

"Oh c'mon, Bell. Don't pretend like I'm not here!"

"I'm not." Like hell. "Look, Jake, I've got a lot on my mind right now." Jacob sighs heavily, looking down dejectedly and I roll my eyes at his dramatics.

Couldn't he take the hint and just high-tail all four of us out of here already? I could practically smell the uncomfortable wafting off Quil and Embry across the room…and that stuff was very contagious.

"I guess you'd rather be with your real friends, I get it." Was this boy serious? Physically restraining myself from face palming right there, I look over at Bella with a raised eyebrow, seeing that she was buying right into his drama. And Jesum, I should've known this would happen. In fact, this is probably what got Jacob to like Bella in the first place. The idiot two-timing gremlin popper bought into Jacob's drama-queen act, whereas I was completely immune.

"Aw, Jake, you know that's not fair."

"Do I?"

"You should." I clench my teeth together to keep from snapping at her when she moves closer to him. "Jake? Hey, you said you made me something, right? Was that just talk? Where's my present? I'm waiting." Bella and I make eye contact for a second, and I narrow my eyes unhappily before nudging Jacob roughly in the side to get on with it.

"Right," he grumbles a little bit and making a show of digging in his pockets to take out her present. And, conveniently, it came in a small decorated pouch. How sweet. I let go of Jacob's hand in favor to just cross my arms and pout to myself. His gaze immediately goes over to me as a silent question but eventually moves back to Bella. In which case, did not bother me one bit. Nope, no way.

My hand goes back up to the necklace.

"Hey, that's pretty, Jake. Thanks!"

"The present is inside, Bella."

"Oh." I lift my head up high enough so she could see me roll my eyes. Stopping mid-way through my eye roll, however, when Jacob empties the pouch out onto her hand and a handmade wooden wolf bracelet charm falls out. And it would've been exactly identical to my birthday present if he bothered to carve out a heart to accompany the first charm.

"It's beautiful, you made this? How?" Bella nearly gushes, looking as shocked as I felt. Licking my lips nervously I look between Bella and Jacob, then glance over my shoulder to see that both Embry and Quil were still standing by the entrance, looking so awkwardly out of place that it made me want to laugh. But I won't laugh because right now I was being drawn to Bella Swan as she complimented and smiled at my boyfriend.

I think the technical term was flirting.

Clenching my hands into fists at my sides I was torn between throwing a fit and causing a scene or just silently wallow and be miserable.

Then, out of freaking nowhere the tiny little piece of meat I've only seen once in my entire life is standing right next to me, all in her chirping happiness and producing some weird fruity sweet like smell.

She was supposed to be a vampire?

Pfft, yeah right.

Jacob's hand was in mine again the second I see said miniature 'vampire' and pulls me away to his other side. Then boom Quil and Embry are breathing down my neck faster than I could blink. Flinching I look over my shoulder uneasily, noticing that, not only had Quil and Embry arrived, but another load of vampires. I would most definitely die of a heart attack if they kept this stuff up; seriously, hello, very much human right now.

Looking up at Jacob's hard expression I start to wonder why I agreed to even come here… I look away from Jacob's face and scowl. I was going to give him hell when it came to the food bill.

Oddly enough, the thought didn't comfort me as much as it should've. In fact, I think I was cutting off Jacob's circulation with how tight I was squeezing his hand. Hell, I think my palms were even sweating. If I didn't have the perfume Rachel nearly bathed me in on, I'd probably smell absolutely disgusting.

Letting my eyes wander between each of the vampires faces Jacob leans in close with his most threatening expression, his voice dropping down to a dangerous growl.

How could someone as big and muscular as Jacob look so freaking hilarious while angry?

"I'll be right back," Bella suddenly splutters, starting to leave with the group of vampires. And, obviously, this should've been our cue to just get the hell out of there. But of course Jacob opens his mouth and stops them. Did he seriously want to be here right now? I was starting to think I should've brought duct tape in order to keep his mouth shut. And, who knows? Maybe Quil and Embry would've helped me tie him up too; then we could force him to leave. You know, considering he doesn't seem to understand when to take a damn hint and do it himself. What kind of girlfriend used to be best friend would I be if I didn't help him?

"Why? What's going on?"

"Nothing. Just wait here a sec." Taking this as my opportunity I tug at Jacob's hand and take a step towards the exit, he squints down at me curiously before an amused smile spreads across his face. I grit my teeth in annoyance.

"We'll leave in 10 minutes, okay? We just got to find out what's going on," he says smoothly, glancing between both Quil and Embry. A second passes and he nods, dropping my hand and going after Bella.

"Jesum, am I the only one that thinks Jacob's an idiot?" I ask, turning to Quil and Embry with a huff. My eye twitches when I see Quil's expression.

"What? You see a squirrel or something Quil?" I grind out between clenched teeth, crossing my arms haughtily.

"Nope!" he chirps happily, reaching forward and poking my forehead, "I just see a jealous girlfriend is all. It's a good look for you; cute, yeah?"

"Guess Jacob's not the only idiot here," Embry offers, looking as annoyed as I felt. Quil doesn't get it.

"Heh, yeah; but man, you should lower your voice, the bloodsuckers can hear you," he whispers in a rather loud voice. Embry rubs at his temples before quickly hitting our friend upside the head. Ignoring Quil's whines of so called 'pain' Embry glances up and frowns. Reaching out silently to put a hand on my upper back he leads us back to where the vampires and Jacob's little gossip circle. We arrive just in time to see the miniature girl blink, looking absolutely startled.

No one seems surprised.

I sure as hell know I'm surprised. Shrugging to myself a second later I figure it must have something to do with those super powers that Jacob talked to me about last minute.

"How long?" Bella's boyfriend speaks up suddenly.

"They'll be here in four days." Blinking a few times I rub at my eyes, smearing my makeup no doubt in the process. Not that it mattered anyways.

There was no way we were going to be here for just 10 minutes.

Considering how tense the room was, we'll probably be here all night.

"There aren't enough of us to protect the town," a second male speaks up, his arm wrapped securely around the sweetened fruit scented girl.

"Someone's going to attack Forks?" Jacob buts into the conversation suddenly, sounding alarmingly confused while his hand moves out absently and grabs onto mine.

"Who's behind it?"

Jacob's ignored. Again, this seems like a good time to leave, but, alas, he stays put.

"I didn't see anyone familiar...maybe one…"

"Yes, I've seen his face; a local. Riley Biers…but he didn't start this."

"Whoever did is staying out of the action."

"So someone is playing with blind spots in your vision," the blondie pips in, sounding a lot calmer than all the others. Then again, I guess whatever their talking about had something to do with a war; with what, I don't know. Couldn't really find it in myself to care either way; I just wanted to eat.

Bella's boyfriends, Edward I think, gaze flicks over to me momentarily, his eyebrows furrowing. He looks away fast enough that nobody notices.

"Only the Volturi could know how Alice's gift works. Aro would have found out, when he read Alice's mind…"

"Either way, the army is coming and our odds aren't very good…"

Army? I reach up to rub my other eye; that doesn't sound too good.

"Alright, hold up! What damn army?" I couldn't help but scoff under my breath at Jacob's pushiness. Doubt he'd make a good politician. Not that it matters right now though…all he has to be good at right now is being a good boyfriend and getting me food. Then maybe I'll consider on cutting back a little on the food bill. However, by the look he was giving the vampires, I'd say his wallet will be emptied by the last penny.

"Our kind. Newborns." My head cocks to the side automatically at that. This was what the hubbub was about? Edward turns to look at me before I even speak, looking overly amused.

"Newborns; like baby vamps? What the hell are you guys even freaking out over?" I ask, raising an eyebrow as Edward chuckled and Jacob...Jacob, for the most part, looked a little embarrassed.

"This is going to take a while to explain," he mutters under his breath.
