Chapter 25

Bella's POV

"Yes, Jacob and the wolves RSVP-ed. So did the Denali Clan and Sibhan's Clan. Only two people have not RSVP-ed." Alice replied.

"Great!" I said. "Is there anything left that you need me to do?"

"Nope. I have it all under control, Bella." Alice said.

"Thank you, Alice." I sang.

"You're welcome, Bells." She cooed back.

"Edward, can we hunt? I am so thirsty!" I asked. My throat felt like I had red hot branding iron down my throat. When was the last time I hunted?

"Of course, love." He smiled. There it is. My favorite crooked smile. I giggled.

"What's so funny?" He asked.

"Nothing. It's just that your smiles never ceases to dazzle me." I giggled again.

He smiled even wider. "Alright, let's go."

"Okay. Catch you later, guys." I called back over my shoulder as we walked out the door. I couldn't wait to take off running. It made me feel like I was flying and there was nothing like it.

"Betcha can't bet me." I teased before taking off running.

In a few minutes, Edward passed me by.

"Betcha I can." He chuckled.

Suddenly he stopped. We were at our meadow and Jacob was here.

"Hey Bells." Jake said.

"Oh hey Jake!" I said. "This is a surprise!"

"Yea I just wanted to talk to you before your big day." He said.

"Oh okay. Can I just hunt first because I really don't want to bite you." I giggled.

"Uhhhh... sure." He hesitated.

"Kay. Be back in a sec." I smiled and dashed off.

There was a group of deer nearby. I plunged my teeth into three of them before returning to Jake. Ahhh... much much better.

"All better?" Edward asked.

"Yes thanks." I said.

"Okay, well I'll wait for you back at the house." He smiled.

"Thanks, Edward. I love you." I soothed.

"I know." He kissed my forhead and took off running.

"Okay Jake. What do you wanna talk about?" I turned around and smiled at him.

"Well... you know how you said you hoped I would imprint?" He asked.
