EPOV
I walked down the stairs to where I heard Emmett and Jasper arguing about what to watch on TV. I went and laid down on the love seat burring my heard in the crease, trying to detect her scent. I was only able to find the smallest whiff of it. It had been 5 years since we had been forced to leave Bella.
-Flashback-
I had watched Bella fall asleep in my arms when my phone rang.
"Hello?", I asked.
"Edward, you and Bella need to get home as soon as possible."
"Why, Carlisle what's wrong?"
"Alice had a vision."
That was all he had to say I told him that we would be there once we could get a flight. I looked over at Bella. Well there is no reason to wake her up yet, I still need to pack, I thought. I got up and start to pack. Once I had pulled out a change of clothes for I picked up her duffel, knowing what she would want have in her carry on. After that I throw everything else in a random suitcase, remembering my father's tone of voice. When that was done I went to wake Bella.
"Bella it's time to wake up.", I whispered in her ear.
"What time is it?", she asked.
"Around one.", I replied.
"Then why did you say that it's time to get up?" "Or is it one in the afternoon?"
"No it's one in the morning, but Carlisle called and told me that we need to get home."
"Why what's wrong?"
"Alice had a vision."
With that she got up, took the clothes that I laid on the bed, and walked into the bathroom to get changed.
"Did Carlisle say what the vision was about?", she called from the bath room.
"No, I didn't ask."
"Ok when are we leaving then?"
"As soon as your done"
"Ok then let's go 'cause I'm done"
"I'll load our stuff into the boat then, why don't you grab something to eat?"
She nodded and walked into the kitchen. I grabbed the bags in one hand and grabbed the keys in the other. I heard her open the cabinet and pull out the pop-tarts, then put two in the toaster. I came back in after putting the bags in the boat and receiving a text from Alice.
Were are u?
I chose to ignore it, knowing that I would regret it later.
"Bella are you ready to go?", I called
"Yep.", she said coming around the corner and stopping in front of me.
We walked to the boat, after helping her into it I started and we started heading to the dock. About half way there I felt my phone buzz in my pocket. I asked Bella to get it. After picking it out of my pocket, she read then started laughing uncontrollably.
"What is so funny?"
My only response was the phone being held out to me. I grabbed it and read the new message from Alice.
ANSWER ME NOW EDWARD OR I WILL...WAIT NO FAIR WHATS MOST IMPORTANT TO ...EDWARD TELL ME SO THAT I CAN BURN IT!
I started laughing along Bella.
"Let me see that.", I said taking that phone back from Bella.
I quickly wrote back.
srry al already got it her with me
I clicked send then waited for the reply.
? WHATS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?
it means that you can burn whatever you want cause I got what I want right here next to me...tell Carlisle that we will be there in 13 hours we are getting on the plane now
After a boring flight we finally got to the house. I got out of the car walked around to the other side of it and picked up a sleeping Bella. After carrying her into the house and placing her on the couch I walked in the dining room where my family sat waiting.
"So, Alice, what was your vision about?'
She just stuck her tongue out at me and tuned her head in the other direction.
"Edward, she saw the Volturi, they want Bella," he said softly "now."
"Now?"
"Yes now."
With that I left the room and walked into the living room to see Bella getting up.
"What are you doing getting up?', I asked.
"Coming to look for you.", she answered.
"Well here I am, let's go upstairs so you can go to bed."
We walked up stairs and I watched her sleep for a few hours when Alice walked in.
"One more hour."
She then walked out as fast as she had came.
Only one more hour before the Volturi came. This was all I thought until I heard Bella starting to whisper my name. But it soon became a panic scream.
"Edward, Edward, EDWARD!", she scream tossing and turning as well as starting to sweat.
I quickly ran over and woke her up, grabbing her into a tight hug until her crying stopped. When it did stop I realized it was because she was asleep. I sat there with her head in my lap until I heard Alice.
"EDWARD 5 MINUTES GET HERE AND BRING BELLA!"
"Bella it's time for you to get.", I told her shaking her gently.
She sat up and once she was fully awake we walked hand in hand down stairs to my waiting family. We went to sit down. After a moment of silence, we heard a loud banging on the door. Carlisle got up to answer it, smiling weakly at all of us.
"Hello Aro, please come in."
"Thank you Carlisle."
After all of the guard filled into the room Carlisle spoke.
"Aro state the business that brings you and your guard here or please leave."
"Carlisle we have decided that the human girl is too much of a threat to our kind.", Aro stated, he then continued. "You have two choices, change her immediately or leave her and never come back."
We all stood speechless staring at Aro, mouthing hanging wide open. Suddenly I felt Bella hug me and press her face into my chest. I wrapped my arms around her trying to comfort her from the fear I knew that she was felling.
"Change me."
"I can't.", I told her.
She stared up at me with worry, pain, and fear in her eyes. Carlisle looked at me i nodded.
"Alright Aro, we will leave first thing tomorrow.", Carlisle said with sorrow heavy in his voice.
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Bella grabbed my tighter and started sobbing into my chest. Alice came over, and after giving me a death glare hugged Bella tightly.
"Very well Carlisle, some of my guard will stay to make sure you follow through with your promise.", he said turning around to face the guard. "Felix, Demetri, Alec, and Jane you will stay."
They nodded and then the rest of the guard left, leaving us to do the unthinkable.
-End Flashback-
And know here we sit, without the love of my life.
