Hey guys! Guess what! Yep, that's right new story out! This time, I'm writing with the help of a VERY good friend of mine Unexpected Answers. By the way, this story is Unexpected Answers VERY FIRST STORY, yep, I got her hooked a couple weeks ago . Anyway this story is about Bella and Jake. It starts near the end of New Moon when Bella finds out that Edward thinks she killed herself. But…as some of us have been thinking, she takes him back too quickly, especially since he made her life hell for months. So this is our story, the way the Twilight story should have gone. As always do us a favor, Read, Review, and Add Us!!!!

DISCLAIMER: We will only post this once, since the fact that we DO NOT own Twilight will never change

CHAPTER 1

When Alice told me what Edward was planning to do I felt my knees give out and was only saved from physical pain by Alice's slim but steely arms catching me. I didn't know if I was just shocked by the news that a vampire could kill itself, or by the fact that my heart wasn't telling me to be on a plane immediately to save him.

"What are we going to do Bella?" she asked. I'd never heard her uncertain like this before. Usually she was always the leader, the first to act.

"Alice," I whimpered, "I…I don't want him to die, but…he left me Alice, he didn't want me. There has to be another reason for him to do this, it can't be that he thinks I'm dead. I'm not going to stop him from doing whatever he wants to do, he wouldn't want me to."

Alice was gaping at me. "Bella, are you insane? The man you love is about to kill himself! And your just going to here twiddling your thumbs?" she demanded.

"Who says I even love him anymore? A lot has changed since he left Alice, since all of you left. I don't know what my heart wants anymore, but my head is telling me to stay right here."

"Bella," Alice whined, not like pouting, but in a different way, a way that kind of scared me. "At least… call him? Please? Maybe if you call him he'll realize it's okay, he's not answering anyone else's calls."

I closed me eyes and sighed, "alright Alice, just a minute." I paced back and forth a few times and finally grabbed the phone and dialed the number I still knew by heart. It rang and rang and finally went to voicemail, I closed my eyes against my emotions and said after the beep, "Edward, it's me Bella. I'm alright. Alice told me that Rose told you I was dead. I'm not Edward; I'm safe and sound right here in my house. Please, please don't do whatever you're planning to do. I—" and I couldn't finish that sentence. I didn't know if I missed him, if I wanted him to come back here, if I loved him. My emotions were going crazy. I knew in some small part of both my brain and my heart, I still loved this man, this vampire that had promised to love me forever. So to ease my own pain a little and to try to get him back to his family safely I said, "I want you to come back Edward, please come back." That left a wide range of other things I hadn't said, things that would have roped me to him again, and I didn't know if I wanted that.

I sank down onto the couch after I hung up and curled up in a ball. The room seemed to have gotten colder all of a sudden.

"Thank you so much Bella," Alice whispered. "You don't know how what this will mean to Esme, and how much it means to me. For you to…I know your feelings even if I'm not like Jasper, I know you're conflicted but you called him anyway. Thank you."

"Alice, no matter what my emotions are I couldn't just let him kill himself. I might hang around with vampires, but that doesn't mean I don't have morals. And letting someone off themselves is not my idea of being moral. Oh, and Alice, just because…it went to voicemail. He might not get it in time…"

"Just you trying is enough Bella. Where's your werewolf?" she asked with a smile.

"I don't know, probably out patrolling or something…I wasn't very happy that he didn't let me talk to Edward when he called…I mean sure I'm not going to jump into his arms and beg him to take me back, but still…I should have the right to talk to him. I think Jake realized that I needed space, that I needed to get my thoughts in order."

"Ah, I wish he was here, I have a splitting headache."

I smiled at her, "and why would Jake being here make that better? Wouldn't him being here make it worse?" I asked.

She shook her head, making her short hair fly around. "Nope, when the wolves are near me everything goes black, but when Jacob is around me it goes black and the headaches I tend to get disappear too. I noticed it last time I saw him."

"Oh, well then you guys are a match made in heaven aren't you?" I teased, unable to be sad enough about Edward not to smile.

She contemplated me, "no Bella, we aren't. If I had to say who a perfect match for Jake was, it would be you. You two have so many of the same quality, you're both mostly human, you're both clumsy, and you have something about you that draws others to you. You and Edward…I don't mean to hurt your already messed up feelings, but you two never struck me as even a compatible match. If you were on you wouldn't even know each other. But I've always been glad he brought you home, you're my sister now."

I was staring at her, shocked, "you think me…and Jake?" I asked incredulously.

She frowned, her perfectly arched eyebrows drawing together, "isn't that why you're conflicted? Because you like Jake but you don't know how to feel about Edward?" she asked.

I had known there was something different, but I hadn't connected that something with Jake. He was just there, always, a perfect friend, an amazing addition to my messed up life. "I…I don't know." I said evasively.

"Uhuh, sure." She was grinning at me like the devil and I blushed in spite of myself.

Thankfully, before I could answer or tell her she was wrong, the phone rang and I grabbed it up. "Hello?" I asked.

"Bella? Bella is that you?" asked his voice over the receiver.

I felt my grip on the phone and my sanity slipping. Resolving to not be weak about this I clutched the phone and pulled myself in, "yes Edward, it's me. Rose was mistaken about—"

"It doesn't matter Bella. I'm coming home. I'm at the airport in Italy right now. I'll be there in a few hours!"

I was gasping for breath and finally choked out, "that's wonderful." I handed the phone to Alice, sat down with my head between my legs and breathed. It wasn't helping at all.

"Hello? Edward! Oh thank goodness we got to you in time. You're coming home? Yay! Oh, um well I can't be sure but I think she's hyperventilating. She'll be fine. Oh yeah, I guess I should take care of her huh? Alright, I'll talk to you later. Um…you want to give Carlisle and them a call and tell them to pick you up?" she asked.

I couldn't hear what he said on the other end; I wasn't special enough to have acute hearing, and I was having enough trouble just keeping my breathing semi steady.

"Of course I'm staying here! Alright, see you in a while. Bye." She pushed the end button and the little beep it made echoed in my head a thousand times.

"Alice, he's coming back," I whispered.

"I know, I could hear your conversation remember, and he told me himself. Don't worry; everything will work out how it's supposed to. Even though I'm a vampire and 'damned' by a lot of people, I still believe in fate. What happens from here was meant to happen."
