wedding. When Jacob wakes up, he is angry with himself for wasting his time with her by sleeping. He takes her outside to clear his head and tells her that although he wanted to handle this differently, he has run out of time. He needs her to know he is in love with her. He acknowledges that she doesn't feel the same way, but he wants her to realize she has other options besides becoming a vampire. *Bella mentions in the chapter that it feels more like February than May. As in most of Eclipse, there is some inconsistency in the time-line due to the fact that Stephenie worked off of a 2007 calendar when the year in the book was really 2006.
that she will no longer be soft and warm and tempting. Edward laughs and reassures her that she'll be the same girl he has always loved -- just a little more durable. In spite of the human aspects that he will miss, he tells her it will mostly be a relief not to have to worry about killing her. But he hates the idea of changing her because staying human would be such a better choice for her. It seems criminally selfish to him to allow her to become a vampire (and possibly lose her soul) just so he can keep her forever. If there were any way for him to become human for her he'd do it, whatever the cost. To Bella's horror, Edward then asks Bella why she won't marry him. After many evasions, she admits that she finds the idea of getting married straight out of high school embarrassing and ridiculous. It's just not something intelligent, responsible girls of her generation do.
Chapter Seventeen Alliance As Bella arrives at his house, Edward rushes out to kiss her in a tense, uneasy way that makes her nervous. He promises that nothing will happen to her and leads her into the house for the party. Alice has transformed the house into an amazing nightclub, which Bella finds a bit over whelming. In the moments before the party, the Cullens discuss their plan for attacking the newborns in Seattle while Bella listens on. Everyone invited to the party arrives. The normalcy of the event keeps Bella somewhat distracted as she goes from guest to guest to guest with Edward glued to her side. When he did leave her side, it left Bella suspicious. Bella follows him to find that Alice has seen something and no one is telling Bella about it. At the same time, Jacob and a few others from La Push have arrived, much to Alice and Edward displeasure. Surprised that Jacob would come after she hit him, Bella asks him why he came. He says that he has a gift for her one that
Chapter Eighteen Instruction As Alice's graduation party ends, Bella is anxious that Jacob's pack has aligned themselves with the Cullens against the newborns. Everyone reassures Bella there is no danger but she remains worried, agonizing over why her bad luck continually puts other people in harm's way. The wolves and the vampires intend to meet for a training session at 3:00 AM. Bella tells Edward she wants to accompany him. Edward notes that she is tired and says he doesn't want her present for any tensions between the two groups if the training experiment does not go well, but she insists. Ensured that Charlie is asleep for the night, Bella and Edward wait in her bedroom for the time to pass. Bella thinks seriously about forming a plan to keep her bad luck from affecting others. Edward makes one last effort to coax Bella into staying, but she refuses. He runs, carrying her on his back, to a large field, which Bella recognizes as the baseball clearing she visited with the Culle
Chapter Fifteen Wager Jacob waits for Bella to respond to his declaration of love, but she can't think of anything to say. She stutters and tries to leave, but Jacob pulls her back attempting to explain that he knows how she's feeling. He asks her point blank if she wants him to go away and never see her again. Bella admits that she wouldn't want that. She says she misses Jacob when he's not around, but only when he's happy. She goes on to say it's because he's like family, and that she only loves him... and is not in love with him. Jacob is pleased enough by this, and says he'll "stick around." Bella feels uncomfortable, especially when Jacob affectionately touches and caresses her. She asks him to behave himself, but Jacob replies that she'll have to take him or leave him the way he is, since he will not change his behavior claiming Edward is no longer her whole life. He wants Bella to understand that Edward isn't her only choice. Jacob suddenly turns serious, taking Bella's chi
Summary: It's Bella's second day at her new school and while it is a better day in some ways, in others it is much worse. Mike continues to be very friendly, much to Eric's displeasure, which Bella finds flattering, however, she is not interested in Mike and realises she will have to do something about his over-friendly behaviour. Bella is also feeling more confident because she recognises more faces and people are looking at her less than the day before something that, for Bella, is very important. Her day gets worse when she gives the wrong answer in Trig and has to play Volley-ball ending up hitting her team mate on the head with the ball giving us further proof of her clumsy nature. However, the worst part of this second day is that Edward Cullen is not in school and for some reason Bella can't stop thinking about him and his behaviour of the previous day. She feels nervous and uncomfortable, waiting to see if he is in school. Bella feels as if his lack of presence is her
Eclipse, Chapter 4 (Nature) The chapter opens with Bella having a bad week. She has accepted the fact the Victoria is still after her because, in all honesty, she never expected her to stop. However, Bella is feeling the need to be changed more now than ever. Carlisle and the others aren't that concerned has there are seven of them. Edward's one reply is that he will have the discussion with her if she meets his condition. Edward goes away hunting with Emmett and Jasper leaving Alice in charge of watching Bella. Bella is hoping to keep her time occupied by working and helping Angela. Unfortunately when she gets to Newton's they don't need her to work and a flyer saying "Save the Olympic Wolf" causes Bella to head straight to La Push. Bella arrives at La Push greeted by a shocked yet extremely happy Jacob. Bella instantly feels like the Bella she used to be with Jake, less responsible and carefree.
