"Wait! Let him go!" commanded Bella. Her father, Aro, gave her a quizzical look. She glared at him and he told his guards to let Edward go. They dropped the vampire on the floor and he quickly regained his balance. "Let me talk to him." She led the way out of the door and into the hallway. Edward hesitantly followed her.
"What do you want of me?" Edward asked, mustering all of the harshness into his voice as he could. It was hard when he was looking at the face of an angel. He would never admit this to his sister, Rosalie, but this Bella he was looking at was prettier than her.
"I want to know why you're here." Bella asked him calmly. She looked him straight in the eyes and saw that his eyes were very black.
"I'm here because I want to die." Edward replied looking at the ground. He didn't want to die anymore. He wanted to live so he could learn more about the angel questioning him.
"Vampire boy say what?" Bella asked astonished. She gave him the once over and tried to think of one reason he would want to die.
"My girlfriend…she…died in a car crash. I didn't think I could live without her. I know I can now." Edward decided it was better to tell the truth even though he didn't want to talk about why he wanted to die.
"You can now? So…tell me why you came here if you can live without her." Bella questioned. She wasn't sure when she was going to lose control but it was going to be soon.
"I can live without her now because I now know that she really wasn't the girl for me. I've found someone else." The words rolled off of Edwards tongue faster than he had ever said anything else before.
"Who is this 'someone else'?" Bella asked, even though she didn't want to hear the answer.
"Err…you." Edward said, once again looking down. Bella spun on her heel and stocked back into the other room. Wrong move. Edward thought. He followed again.
"But daddy…" Bella whined. She had her arms folded across her chest and was whining to her father.
"No buts, Bella!" Aro commanded. He, too, crossed his arms.
"Fine! I'm leaving and I'm never coming back!" Bella screamed.
"Fine, Fine. They can go." He quickly said. He then turned to Alice and Edward "You are free to leave."
"I'm going with them." Bella proclaimed. Edward and Alice's head whipped around to look at her. Out of all of the unexpected things that had just happened, this was number one on the list.
"You? Want to go back to Forks? With us?" Alice motioned first to herself and then to Edward.
"Do you not want me to come with you?" Bella asked. She knew for sure that Edward would say something soon.
"NO! We do! But don't you want to stay here? You are much better off here." Edward said. Bella moved closer and grabbed his hand.
"You need me. I need you. I don't think I'm better off here." She said looking into his dark eyes. He really needs to be fed. "Daddy, make Uncle Caiusbuild me a house as close as possible to the Cullen's. I want it done within two weeks. During those two weeks, these two will stay here. No ifs, ands, or buts about it." Bella demanded. Wow, this girl knows what she wants and how to get it. Edward thought. Bella gripped Edwards hand harder and started to head for her bedroom. She had her hand on the door of her room when she felt like she forgot something.
"Damn it! We forgot Alice!" Bella ran as fast as she could without tripping to retrieve Alice. She entered the room she just left to find one petrified girl. Alice hurried to Bella's side and tugged on her sleeve. Bella laughed and led Alice to her room.
"Okay, what was that about?" Alice asked. She was still very wide eyed.
"I thought you were the physic one." Edward added.
"I am so sorry I couldn't concentrate when the Volturi are in the same room as me!" Alice cried out.
"Cool it, guys." Bella said rolling her eyes.
"Hello! I'm a girl!" Alice retorted. She put her hands on her hips and stuck out her tongue.
"Keep retorting and you won't be for long." Bella replied. Alice's eyes widened and she plopped down on the floor. "Oh, and by the way, Edward, you need to go hunting. And soon. Alice and I will go shopping or something. Just go."
"I am not leaving the girl of my dreams." Edward said.
"Yes, you are. Now go. When you return I'll be right here." Bella sighed.
"Unless I beat you back. Which I probably will considering how much Alice likes to shop." Edward motioned to Alice. She was bouncing up and down.
"Well, I'll see you by tomorrow. You look really hungry. Just go. Please?" Bella persuaded. She smiled and Edward couldn't resist.
"Fine. For only six hours. If I don't get anything I don't care. I'm coming back. I forbid you to be gone for more than five hours." Edward named off his conditions while counting them on his fingers.
"Okay, okay. Just go!" Bella smiled brightly and practically shoved Edward out the door. "Gosh, your brother is stubborn." She turned to grab her purse and change when she heard a soft knock on the door. She opened it and was surprised. "That was not six hours."
"A little help getting out of here?" Edward asked and smiled a crooked smile. Dang it, Edward! Bella thought.
"Yeah, just a second. I just need to change and then I can lead you out." Bella answered.
"Okay." Edward leaned against the door and smiled.
"Edward!" She slammed the door in his face. "I need to change!" she yelled through the door. She threw on a short blue jean skirt and halter top. She added a pink jacket over the top and opened the door. He was still standing there smiling. "What did you do?" Bella laughed. Edward shrugged and grabbed her hand. "Alice! Let's go."
Bella led the way to her cars. "What do you want to take? This is just three of them. The other eight of them are in the garage."
"Can we take the Porsche?" Alice asked. She thought it looked just like the one she had driven there to rescue Edward. She was practically drooling over it.
"Do you want it? You can have it. Here." Bella tossed Alice the keys to the yellow Porsche and smiled. Alice jumped up and down again. "She does that a lot doesn't she?" Bella whispered to Edward. Edward nodded.
"Let's take my Porsche. That sounded great!" Alice screamed.
"Go, Edward. Yes, I know, five hours." Bella waved good-bye and blew a kiss. She then walked to the passenger side of the Porsche which Alice was already sitting in. She looked back to where Edward was when she blew him the kiss. He was gone.
She got back out of the car and started walking in the direction of her room. She heard Alice's heels clicking on the ground behind her.
"Wait! Where are you going? I thought we were going shopping?" Alice asked. Bella threw her and exasperated look over her shoulder and continued walking.
"I hate shopping." She said bluntly.
"Then how did you get all the clothes?" Alice wondered aloud.
"That's Allison's job."
"Who's job? Who's Allison?" Alice struggled to keep up with Bella.
"Giannas little sister." Bella answered. What's with all the questions? She wondered silently.
"Stop with the three word answers already!" Alice said.
"We are not going shopping. I have to have my weekly spa treatment. Wouldn't like that better?" Bella asked.
Alice clapped her hands. "Oh, yes!"
"Then let's go!" Bella lead the way to the spa. She went straight to the back and told a blonde woman that she had brought Alice.
The spa treatment went by quickly and before they knew it, it was over. They returned to Bella's room to relax some more. They entered to room to find a surprise.
"Edward? It's barely been three hours!" Bella hugged Edward and looked into his eyes to make sure that they were honey colored. They were.
"I settled for a deer." Edward replied. Bella smiled and hugged him tighter. "I'm guessing you didn't go shopping."
"Guessing? Or reading Alice's mind?" Bella laughed.
"Reading Alice's mind. But even if I couldn't read minds I could tell that she didn't get her shopping trip just from her expression."
"She should be happy. She got an expert spa treatment. She is very hard to satisfy." Bella replied.
"Only shopping satisfies the shopping-holics heart." Edward smiled.
"Shopping-holics? Is that even a word?" Bella asked.
"I do not know but I don't really care either." Edward released Bella. "This is going to be a fun two weeks."
"It's not going to be half that long. It will probably take a week or less." Bella said looking out the window at all the festivities.
"Hmph." They heard Alice say.
"What's wrong with you?" Edward asked.
"I want to stay here. She has her own spa, Edward! SPA! That's every girls dream! Their very own SPA!"
"Wow…" Edward said under his breath.
"I'll probably have a spa in my home at Forks, too. Plus, Allison can be your shopping partner. You two will have tons of fun." Bella comforted Alice.
"Allison?" Edward asked.
"YEAH! She's the one who buys all of Bella's clothes." Alice filled the puzzled Edward in.
"Wow. A spoiled brat. How nice." Edward said sarcastically. Bella playfully hit him.
"Be nice!" Bella laughed.
"I don't know…" Edward smiled that unbelievable crooked smile and his hair seemed to glint in the light from the window. Bella smiled back and embraced him in another hug.
"Never leave me." She murmured into her chest.
"As long as you want me here, I'll be here." Edward replied.
