madelline changed into a more casual outfit while wearing jace's gift to her, she walked inside the cullens' house, immediately seeing her batch mates dancing with each other. her mouth was opened wide as she scanned the room, alice had managed to turn the house into a mini night club.

she let out a small chuckle as she entered, easily spotting emmett, jasper and carlisle standing with edward who looks like having an intense conversation. she decided to not interrupt and searched for a familiar.

"well damn, you look hot mami" jessica's high pitched voice said catching madelline's eyes as she walked over to her with angela beside her.

"you look beautiful maddy" angela complimented, seeing her semi-casual look. she nodded in approval, her eyes looking her up and down.

"you're one to talk" she smiled and engulfed the two into a side hug while bella found her way towards them.

"oh hey, you're finally here" angela said as soon as she spotted bella walking over.

"what'd you think of my speech, bella? too breezy? self helpful?" jessica asked, mainly at bella who stuffed her hands inside her pocket.

"actually, you pretty much nailed it" bella said, nodding her head in approval sending a small smile at her way.

"born to lead right?" jessica remarked, a grin forming its way on her mouth.

"wait, i love this song! come on!" angela exclaimed, grabbing jessica's arm pulling her towards the dance floor while mike and eric followed them.

"you look gorg maddy!" eric called out to her as he tried to follow his girlfriend.

"thank you!" she called out before chuckling.

she walked beside bella and gave her a side hug, "you look beautiful"

bella shifted her weight to her other feet as she only muttered a small thanks to her. they walked over to the drinks, madelline sensed another smell making her smirk appear once again.

"oh alice, you sneaky girl" she laughed as she sniffed the slight vodka that was mixed into the drinks.

she shook her head and grabbed the cup, drinking its content while bella ponders if she's gonna get one.

"grab one, the vodka's there but i think... only ten percent?"

"way to make it better" bella replied in a sarcastic manner, madelline only winked at her while bella decided to risk it and took a cup.

as soon as they turned around, they spotted jacob with paul, jared, embry and seth. madelline's face lit up like a christmas tree at the sight of them and skipped towards their direction. she pulled them into a hug while they hugged her back tightly. bella only stood behind as she glared at jacob's direction.

"did you invite them maddy?" bella asked as soon as her hazel eyed friend pulled away.

"well yeah but alice already invited them beforehand" she answered, walking back beside her.

"what are you doing here?" bella asked, looking at jacob dead in the eyes.

"you invited me, remember?" jacob slightly smirked at her yet quickly vanished as soon as he saw bella's pissed expression.

"was my right hook too subtle? cause that was me uninviting you" she glared continuously at him.

"bella, i'm sorry about you know... the kiss and the hand. i'd blame it on the animal thing but it was just me being an ass. really, i'm sorry" jacob apologized, looking at her straight in the eyes trying to prove that he's sincere.
