Edward and Bella were married and 25 years old.
Edward and Bella were going to be together all the time now. Edward would never leave her side.
"I want to protect you Bella; I could never live with myself if you were to die. I would have to go to the Volturi."
"I could never let you do that," replied Bella. "If I was watching that from heaven, I would have to turn away, I would never want to watch that"
Every morning Bella went to work as a school teacher in her old high school, and Edward was always somewhere in the building, for he could never bear to be further away from her than that.
After work, Edward would always ask Bella the same question. "How was work?"
Bella would always answer, "Okay, but I'm feeling better now that you're here."
Once, after Bella finished work at 3 o' clock, she was surprised to find that Edward wasn't there. She phoned his cell, but he didn't pick up.
After she had checked the house and Carlisle and Esme's place, she started to get really worried. What had happened? Was Edward okay? All these questions and many more began to cross her mind.
Alice, Esme, Carlisle, Emmett, Jasper and Rosalie were just as concerned as Bella. They said he had never come home from work.
Nobody knew what to do... Edward was not as easy to find as it was for him to find people.
That evening, Alice saw something in her mind. "I see a brightly coloured room," she exclaimed, "and in the room are brightly coloured beings that look like they're made of felt!"
Nobody knew what to think.
