SM Owns
Prepare for explanations.
Also, I had a major geographical boo boo in this fic, so we're all just going to use our imaginations and pretend that the Cullen's current place of residence is really much much closer to Forks than it is in reality, mmkay?

Also, on a personal note. In response to a few comments about how Jacob would NEVER do that and etc. etc.
He's ooc. What's a story without a villain, right? I'm no Jacob fan, and if it bugs you that much, just don't read it. But don't yell at me about it and tell me that he's not canon and unbelievable or what have you. That's all.
