Chapter Thirty Eight - Reception
There was microphone feedback as someone tapped on it.
"Excuse me, is this on. Hello." I was Emmett "Umm I'd like to propose the toast. To my new sisters. Bella, Jackie, I hope you've gotten enough sleep for 18 years. because you won't be getting anytime soon." I let out a snort as I covered my face. He was the only one who laughed because of the inside joke. Jess, Dad, Mom, Alice, Esme all did speeches then Nik stood up
"I met little Jackie when she was 10. My first impression of her was how feisty and much of a spitfire she was and still is.. After she left my brother and I, we kept an eye on her. At the beginning of the year we met again and brought her with us. She told me of the person she met and wanted to spend the rest of forever with. I believe in her and I believe she's made a good choice. Have fun little one."
"Jacqueline and Bella. I must congratulate you on your marriage. I am a friend of Jackie's and had the pleasure of seeing why she has chosen Edward to spend her life with. To him she is his world, and I know that both men will take the most care with the sisters."
"Thank you Elijah." I whispered knowing he could hear me. Edward stood up and went to the stage.
"It's an extraordinary thing to meet someone who you can bare your soul to. Who can accept you for what you are. I've been waiting what seems like a very long time, to get beyond what I am. And with Jackie, I feel like I can finally begin. So I'd like to propose a toast to my breath taking beautiful bride. No measure of time with you will be long enough. But let's start with forever." Bella gave me a side hug. He came back and kissed me as Jasper stood up on stage.
"There are limitless reasons why I fell in love with Bella. Her smile, her eyes, the way she makes me feel like I am her world, her empathy for others she cares about, especially her sister. Why she chose me still makes me wonder but every day I plan to make it like the first. She sees beyond the highs and lows we face. She is the light to a dark day I could have. But as I've told her many times. You are my heaven. To my blushing beautiful bride." I clapped and hugged my sister.

"Can we steel the bride love." Rebekah asked
"Sure." Edward let me dragged away by the girls. GDFR started playing. I whooped and started laughing. I jumped up and down getting down for real. I laughed when the boys lifted me up on their shoulders.
" Damon, Aiden. Get Edward. Nik and Josh, Jasper, Jackson and Tyler, Bella" Rebekah ordered. Bella let out a little yelp.
"What are they doing?" Bella asked
"Partying." I replied I guess Kol and Stefan had me. I felt Edward grab my hand and lift it up.
"Okay let me down." I was slid down
"You're all mad." I tell them.
"We know, go to your husband" Elena chirped and pushed me over. He caught me as we started dancing.
"Are you happy?"
"Very happy." he tensed
"What is it."
"Jacob and Bella. Come on." He took me outside. Where we heard arguing."
"What the hell is going on." I snap
"Please tell me the two of you are not going to when you're still human." Jacob sneered
"It's none of your business."I retorted. Jacob shoves and leaves.
"Come on Seth."
"No, Sam." I protested.
"Please, let me stay. I need to talk with Jackie." there was a long silence.
"Fine." He snapped and left
"Let's give them a moment." Edward told Jasper and Bella. When they went I spoke first.
"What's going on?"
"I need your help."
"Of course. What is it" I held out my hands and he took them
"Did Bella tell you about wolves Imprinting?"
"Yeah, why."
"I imprinted. On one of your vampire friends."
"What? Which, which one."
"Rebekah." he confessed
"Oh wow."I cleared my throat thinking of what to say. "Do the other wolves know?"
"No, just you and Edward. I don't know what to do."
"Okay well, Rebekah's very forward, so if you want I could introduce, get things rolling. Or, I have no idea." I breathed.
"Right, best way to do it is start off in the right foot. You're going through Original Land. Be mindful of her brother, especially Klaus. I'll talk to Elijah he's the most reasonable." I pulled him back to the party.
"You'll have to guide me."
"Sure." He took me over to Rebekah.
"Bekah, I want you to meet someone."
"Okay."
"Bekah. This is Seth, Seth, Rebekah. Talk bond and be nice." I walked off "Elijah I need a word." I muttered and felt him come near
"You called." I nodded and explained everything
"Well, this is a new one."
"I won't be here so please keep an eye on things. I actually like this wolf. He's only 15."
"I promise."
"Can we have the bride and grooms for their first dance" Edward took my waist as we went to the dance floor.
"I love you, Mrs Cullen"
"I love you Mr Cullen." I kissed him softly.
