Preface
It would all end one day. Nothing could last. Happiness wasn't eternal, but I was.
Chapter one: Waiting
Alice's POV
Time had come and passed. Now it was decision time.
"We have to choose. Now." I told Jasper, my voice stone cold and emotionless.
He nodded in agreement, but didn't say anything.
"She's 18 now. Physically, at least. It's now or never." I continued.
He looked thoughtfully at me for a moment. "We need to be sure." he had never agreed with me that we would have to change her. "Wait until we go hunting tomorrow. If she's still aging when we get back, then I guess we'll have no other choice." he nearly cringed at the thought of changing her.
I closed my eyes, and took a deep breath. Forty-eight hours.
As Jasper, Katherine, and I climbed into the Porsche, all that was on my mind was what this weekend would decide. I was too shaken to drive.
Following the rest of the family down the secluded forest roads, I was tense, solid as stone.
"What's wrong, mom?" Katherine asked in her melodic soprano.
"nothing, Kat." I lied, faking a smile as I looked over my shoulder to her.
She bought it, turning her attention to the open book in her lap. I faced forward again, gently grabbing jasper's hand. He turned to me, sending a wave of... relief? no... comfort. I half-smiled at him, softly rubbing his scarred hand.
The drive was tedious, boring, but not long. Soon we had parked, and were splitting up into groups and running off.
"We're meeting here tomorrow at noon." Carlisle said as Jasper, Katherine, and I ran into the woods.
Twenty-four hours.
