(Jasper's POV)

"You're what?" Edward just told me he's in love with me.

This wasn't making any sense, even after Bella explained it for the tenth time. Eventually, I just said, "I think I need to be alone for a bit." Then I stood up and walked to one of the bedrooms in the hotel suite.

As soon as I shut the door behind me, I could hear my angel say, "I'll go talk to him."

A few moments later, I was sitting on the bed in the dark and Bella was knocking on the door. "Jazzy? Can I come in?"

I hesitated before answering, "Sure."

The door opened slightly and Bella slipped into the room, closing the door behind her, once again enveloping us in total darkness.

Bella flipped on the lights before taking a seat next to me on the bed.

I blinked a bit at the sudden brightness, but my eyes adjusted quickly.

Bella rested her hand on my back but didn't say anything just yet. I knew for a fact that the family was listening in.

Eventually she said, "Look Jazz, I know it's a lot to take in right now. But I really hope you don't hate him."

I didn't answer right away. "I don't hate him. I just can't believe he's gay..."

"You didn't have a problem with Max being bi."

"Max isn't in love with me," I pointed out. It's not that I'm homophobic or anything. If I was, Max wouldn't have been my Best Man in the wedding. It's just... weird to find out that the guy who tried to rape your wife is actually in love with you.

Bella sighed, "Yeah. I know you're not homophobic." It was as if she were reading my mind. She continued, "Well... at least we have an answer."

"True. But you have to wonder how truthful he's being. I can feel love and some lust coming from him, but I don't know if it's for you or me."

She sighed again. "Touche."

I could hear Edward's growl, but I ignored it. Instead I said to Bella, "Pretty crappy way to end your wedding day, huh?"

She smiled. "Not really. It was unexpected, but still the best day of my life despite all that happened."

"I love you Bells."

"I love you too, Jazzy."

And then I kissed her, mostly because I love her to death. But also partly because I was trying to forget everything that had happened today, minus the wedding.

Bella froze for a second before responding and pulling me closer, tangling her fingers in my hair.

I traced my tongue along her bottom lip and she opened her mouth, granting me access.

I knew this probably wasn't the best time for a make out session, but I needed a distraction.

I fell back onto the bed, pulling Bella on top of me, never once breaking the kiss.

But before anything more could happen she pulled back. "Jazz, we shouldn't be doing this right now."

I sighed. "You're right."

She gave me a half-smile. "We should get back out there. Besides, we still have our honeymoon. We'll continue this later," she said before getting off of me.

I sat up and grinned before standing up and taking my wife's hand and letting her drag me back out to the real world.

Everyone was looking at us when we entered the main room again. Alice had a knowing look on her face, Edward looked heartbroken. I didn't have to be an empath to know what he was feeling at that moment.

A wave of guilt engulfed me, and I realized it was coming from my angel.

I squeezed her hand and sent out a calming wave.

She gave me a small smile and squeezed my hand back, as if to say 'Thanks'.

We sat down on one of the couches, never letting go of each other's hands.

The room was silent before Carlisle said, "Well, looks like we have a lot to talk about."

Everyone agreed.

"Jasper, would you like to say something first?" Carlisle asked me.

I sighed before saying, "Edward. Don't think that I hate you, or think any less of you because of what you've told me. It's just a lot to take in. I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault. I understand," he said. "I think I should leave for awhile. I always seem to screw things up for everybody. Bella, I'm sorry for kidnapping you again." He stood up to leave but before he could, Esme pulled him into a hug.

"Goodbye dear. We'll miss you. I know I don't want you to go, but if you must, then I won't argue. Just be safe."

Edward didn't say anything. He just hugged her back.

Then he pulled back and looked at Alice, who had obviously said something to him in her mind. He smiled after a minute and nodded.

And then Bella stood up and hugged him. "I'll miss you Edward, despite all that's happened between us."

He was silent again but hugged her anyway. I monitored his emotions closely, searching for even the slightest increase in the lust or love he was experiencing... Nothing happened.

Once Bella pulled back, Edward said, "Goodbye everyone." And then he left.

Bella sat back down on the couch next to me. I told her, "Nothing. He feels nothing for you anymore... I mean, he loves you, but as a sibling... nothing else."

The whole family sat in awkward silence for a few minutes. Alice was the one to break it. "Hey! Don't you two have a honeymoon to get ready for?"

Bella laughed. "You're right!" She looked at me and winked.

The emotional atmosphere relaxed but I could still sense a hint of underlying tension.

(Bella's POV)

I stood up and grabbed Jasper's hand, pulling him off the couch. "C'mon. Let's go home and get ready."

He nodded and let me lead him down to the hotel lobby, where we waited for everyone to gather everything we'd packed so we could leave.

After a few minutes of waiting, Alice ran into the lobby, at human speed of course, and came to a stop in front of us, Max not far behind.

"So, you two ready for your honeymoon??" She asked, literally bouncing on the balls of her feet.

Max put a hand on her shoulder. "Babe, calm down. You're making me jumpy."

Max's words did nothing to calm Alice down and she continued bouncing. I laughed and said, "I'm ready! Now where the hell is everyone else?"

Jasper snaked an arm around my waist. "I can hear Rose and Emmett arguing now." He laughed.

Sure enough, Rose and Emmett turned the corner in the next second, arguing about something. Carlisle and Esme followed closely behind.

Now Max was twitching. "C'mon! Let's go! I gotta get outta this suit, it's uncomfortable."

I laughed at my brother. "Max is right. Let's get going."

We piled into different cars, Esme and Carlise with Rose and Emmett in the jeep, Alice, Max, Jazz, and I in the Turbo 911. Our guests were all meeting us back at the house.

Alice raced home so we could be home before everyone else.

She was out of the car and dancing around the house before the rest of us could even comprehend what was going on.

Max, Jazz, and I walked through the front door and saw a sound system, a microphone, and a stack of CDs taller than Jasper. Alice raced down the stairs with another pile of CDs in her arms.

"Uh, Alice, what are you doing?" Jasper asked.

"Resuming the party," she replied nonchalantly, without stopping her work.

Jasper and I looked at each other and shrugged, while Max whined, "You mean I gotta keep this god damn suit on even longer?"

Alice stopped in front of him and kissed his cheek. "'Fraid so, hun. But it's only for a few more hours."

He rolled his eyes. "Fine."

The rest of the family arrived at the same time as the Denali Coven and a few nomads- Garrett, and Peter and Charlotte. Carmen immediately ran to hug me and I hugged her back just as tightly. "Oh Bella. I never got a chance to congratulate you." I'd always been closer to Carmen than anyone else in the Denali Coven. I would probably be jealous of her if she didn't have Eleazar.

She let me go and beamed at me. "You looked so beautiful when you walked down that aisle."

I smiled. "Thank you, Carmen."

The next guests to arrive were our friends from Ireland- Siobhan and her mate, Liam; and Little Maggie. I loved Maggie, she was almost as adorable as Alice.

She rushed to hug me and I picked her up and spun her around. "Hello Maggie." I put her down.

She smiled. "Congratulations!" Maggie was just a little taller than Alice and forever sixteen, with bouncy red curls and a radiant smile.

She gave Jasper a hug and then went off to talk to other guests. Pretty soon the Egyptian Coven- Benjamin and Tia, and Amun and Kebi- and the Amazons- Zafrina, Senna, and Kachiri- arrived as well and the party was in full motion.

A song blasted from the speakers, and I recognized it from Mamma Mia! Everyone in the family is big on musicals.

Jasper leaned down to whisper, "May I have this dance?"

I looked up at him and smiled. "Of course."

He led me out onto the makeshift dance floor and we were quickly joined by other couples: Alice and Max, Carlisle and Esme, Carmen and Eleazar, Em and Rose, Kate and Garrett...

Jasper sang along for the first verse, making the actor's voice sound coarse in comparison.

I wasn't jealous before we met

Now every man that I see is a potential threat

And I'm possessive, it isn't nice

You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice

He pulled me into his arms as he sang:

But now it isn't true

Now everything is new

And all I've heard

Has overturned

I beg of you!

I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck as we moved to the music. I took the chorus and the next verse.

Don't go wasting your emotion

Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck

A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck

I still don't know what you've done to me

A grown-up woman should never fall so easily

I feel a kind of fear

When I don't have you near

Unsatisfied

I skip my pride

I beg you dear!

After a few more songs, Alice had the bright idea (note the sarcasm) to have a kinda sorta karaoke competition.

"You'd be singing alone to a CD," she explained.

Everyone agreed to it eventually. "Who's first?" Alice asked excitedly. Everyone had formed a circle around the microphone.

Carmen bravely stepped forward. "I'll go."

"Great!" Alice squealed. "Here's the catch. I get to pick the songs."

I had a flashback of the last time we'd done karaoke and wondered what torture she'd inflict on me this time.

Jasper squeezed my hand. "Don't worry. It'll be fun."

"Easy for you to say. You like singing."

"Touche."

The music started and Carmen's eyes lit up. "I love this song!" It was Fergie's version of "Barracuda".

So this ain't the end

I saw you again... today
I had to turn my heart awaySmile like the sun

Kisses for real
And tails, it never fails

You're lying so low in the weeds
And I bet you're gonna ambush me
You had me down, down, down, down on my knees
Now wouldn't ya? Barracuda! Ohh

Carmen sang and danced beautifully and I didn't think I'd be able to top her performance...

Jasper sighed and pulled me by the hand up to our room. Everyone was so into the party that no one noticed our absence.

He shut the door behind us, though it didn't block out much noise.

"Would you stop worrying so much about what everyone thinks of you?" He demanded.

I raised an eyebrow. "You pulled me upstairs just to say that?"

He smiled slyly and pulled me into his arms. "No. I actually pulled you upstairs to do this." And then he bent down and pressed his lips to mine.

I threw my arms around his neck and kissed him back passionately.

The kiss had gotten pretty intense before Alice came pounding on the closed door. "Break it up, lovebirds! Plenty of time for that later. C'mon, you're missing the party, dammit!"

Jasper and I broke apart reluctantly but did what Alice said and went back down to the party.

We made it just in time to hear Liam singing the last couple verses of "Drunken Lullabies" by Flogging Molly. We'd missed a few people while we were busy making out.

I sit in and dwell on faces past
Like memories seem to fade
No color left but black and white
And soon will all turn gray
But may these shadows rise to walk again
With lessons truly learnt
When the blossom flowers in each our hearts
Shall beat a new found flame

Must it take a life for hateful eyes
To glisten once again
'Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies
'Cause we find ourselves in the same old mess
Singin' drunken lullabies
Singin' drunken lullabies


Everyone cheered and I watched as one by one, other guests took their turns singing. They were all having a genuinely good time, and soon I was having as much fun as everyone else, the Edward incident earlier now a distant memory.

I watched as Spazzy McGee (my nickname for Max) stepped up to the microphone to take his turn. He caught my eye and I could tell he wanted to change really badly.

I laughed and mouthed, "Go."

He was gone and back in a flash, wearing a pair of normal, straight-legged jeans with no holes in them, and a simple black button down shirt. Not his normal attire, but he knew Alice would kill him he came down wearing that.

She just rolled her eyes and laughed at him before staring his song. It was a song by Pennywise.

We are the dregs of the western world
The steroid boys and video girls
We are the viral internet stars
And the anchor man can't stop crying

We are the dead with the dreaded disease
The nuclear sons for you and me
Let's go all right, all right, let's go
What the fuck are you saying?

Now I don't wanna live here anymore
(Gonna watch it burn)
We are the best and we'll fight to the death
There's nothing left worth fighting for
In the western world

I cheered along with everyone else while Max sang. Once he was done, it was Esme's turn. We all watched as she did a fabulous rendition of "Does Your Mother Know" from Mamma Mia! with Tanya and Kate as backup singers. I saw the hilarity of it as she sang to Carlisle, because he's three years younger than her.

Well I can dance with you, honey

If you think it's funny

Does your mother know that you're out?

And I can chat with you, baby

Flirt a little maybe

Does your mother know that you're out?

I told myself I was off the hook with singing, but it was really wishful thinking.

Finally, the moment I'd been dreading came up and Alice said, "Ladies and gentlemen, it is now the bride's turn to sing. Let's give her a big ol' round of applause!"

Everyone screamed out their words of encouragement as I stepped forward nervously. I was surprised when I saw Alice and Rosalie join me. "What are you doing?" I asked.

"Being backup singers," Rose replied matter-of-factly.

The music started and my nerves lessened a bit. It was my favorite song from Mamma Mia!

Honey, honey, how he thrills me

Uh-huh, honey, honey

Honey, honey, nearly kills me

Uh-huh, honey honey

I heard about him before

I wanted to know some more

And now I know what they mean, he's a love machine!

Oh he makes me dizzy!

My confidence grew tenfold when Jasper flashed me a smile and by the next verse I was belting out the lyrics and dancing with Alice and Rosalie.

I felt almost light-headed as I finished the song... the way I would have felt after giving a performance like that as a human.

Jasper was the very last person to sing. His song was "Five Minutes To Midnight".

Turn it up!
It's five minutes to midnight

You're coming home with me tonight

I can't get enough, shaking me up, turn it up, alright

It's five minutes to midnight
We'll see our names in city lights

We'll make the clock stop, make your heart drop and come alive

And then finally, finally I was saying goodbye to everyone as Jasper set our bags that Alice had already packed for us into the trunk of his black Porsche. This was it, I was finally going on my honeymoon!

I waved out the window at everyone crowded on the porch as Jasper sped down the driveway. Once we were cruising down the highway, I turned to my new husband and asked, "Where the hell are we even going on our honeymoon?" I hadn't realized that no one had told me.

He just smiled. "You'll see."

A/N: Finally, the moment you've all been waiting patiently for, chapter 13! I'm soooo sorry it took so long to get this up but my brain works kinda funny and as soon as my dad freakin banned me from for a week, I got a flood of ideas! So updates for at least the next few chapters will hopefully be up much faster. But I can't guarantee anything. Anyhoo, yeah, the karaoke was kinda just a filler 'cause I wanted the honeymoon to be a separate chapter and because I figured, you guys deserve an extra long chapter! So, songs were, "Lay All Your Love On Me" (1st one), "Honey, Honey" (Bella's song), "Does Your Mother Know" (Esme), which were all from the movie "Mamma Mia!" so they all belong to ABBA. And then, Jasper sang "Five Minutes to Midnight" by Boys Like Girls, Liam sang "Drunken Lullabies" by Flogging Molly, Carmen's song was "Barracuda" which is actually by Heart but Fergie did a pretty good version (and I fuckin hate Fergie!), and Max sang "The Western World" by Pennywise! Everyone should check out allllllll these songs because they're AMAZING! And as you can see, after reading Breaking Dawn, I decided to incorporate more of the vampires mentioned in that book, and I especially couldn't resist putting Maggie in here 'cause she's adorable! And Carmen's my favorite in the Denali Coven now... Anyhoo, read and review!!
