Full Circle
Chapter 1
Bella sat in the orange and gray seats of the 747 that was taking her back to her old home town. The air around her smelled of sex, sweat, peanuts and anxiety. There was a faint hint of the smell that nauseated her the most: human blood. That was due to the seventy or so humans that sat around her, bombarding her senses with their still flowing blood. Even being a vampire had not satiated her hatred for the smell of blood. She took a deep breath, an involuntary human habit, that did nothing to drive the smells from her mind. Bella smoothed her hair, a decade ago it had been mousy and brown but now it was full, soft, deep brown with red and gold highlights filtering through it. Her eyes had settled into a pale amber months after she had been changed. Bella closed her laptop, there was no way she was going to get anymore work done on this flight. Her thoughts drifted back to the clearing in Forks.
Victoria and Laurant had found her walking in the clearing that the Cullens had played baseball in from time to time. She had been depressed, Edward had left her alone. She sank deeper and deeper into her own self-loathing the idea continually running through her mind that she had done something horrible to deserve him walking away. The pair had encircled her, keeping her from leaving the clearing. Victoria grabbed her by the arm and bit into her bicep while Laurant grabbed her by both shoulders and bit down on her neck along her collar bone. A growl from behind them caused both vampires to release their grips and Bella flopped to the ground almost lifelessly. Five wolves stalked closer and closer to the trio. The gray one in the front nodded, somehow, to the russet brown one and the brown one stayed while the other four chased the two vampires out of the clearing.
Jacob had been too late, he phased back from his wolf form and sat down beside her shaking body. His mind filled with anguish, knowing that Sam was only going to give him time to say good bye before they came back and added her body to the pile of body parts that would be the other two vampires. Bella could hear the screams in the distance and tried to open her eyes.
"Jacob, whats wrong?" She asked shaking in between words.
"We are going to have to kill you Bella. They both bit you. You'll change soon." She could hear the emotions in his voice, the ones that told her that would probably kill him as well.
"Its okay Jake, I'll be okay in three days when the burning stops."
"Bells, we can't have a newborn vampire running around Forks. You might kill or turn everyone."
"Jake, do you really think that I cold hurt anyone?" She asked, tears in her eyes. His warm hands held hers, drawing small circles over the backs of her wrists.
"No, but I'm pretty sure that this isn't going to be my decision." The hairs on his neck rose slightly telling Jacob that Sam and the others were on their way back.
"Jacob, can she tell us anything?" Sam phased back and walked towards them, the other two wolves staying back.
"Hey Sam." Bella croaked. "What do you want to know?" The fire that was burning through her body caused her to convulse in pain for a few seconds before she wrestled her body under control.
"Tell us about vampires. We don't know much other than their smell and how to destroy their bodies." Sam asked coming closer to her.
"It might be easier if you just asked questions? My head is swimming." Bella gave them a small smile before grimacing in pain.
"Do they really have different powers?" Sam asked. Bella could tell that he would be the only one asking questions. He was the leader of the pack, the Alpha. Jacob was his second in command, his Beta.
"Yep. Alice would see the future, except for anything involving you wolves. Jasper could feel and alter the emotions of those around him, vampire or human. He..." Bella took a second for a deep breath. "could read minds."
"Were they really vegetarian?"
"Yep. I plan to be as well. That is if you don't kill me. I do understand why you would though. As a newborn I will be slightly dangerous for a few weeks."
"I thought it was a few years?" Sam asked sitting down on her other side. He could see her remorse for her own life being taken.
"It depends on the newborn and the people or beings that she is around. You've taken out my sires, freed me from being like them. I can choose to be a normal, red-eyed vampire or I can be a 'vegetarian' and only hunt animals."
Sam looked at Jacob for a few seconds, like they were having a discussion that no one else could hear. Jacob scooped her up into his arms and the pack took her back to the reservation. Billy wasn't happy about Bella being a vampire but the pain in Jacob's eyes was enough to silence him. They kept her safe and comfortable while she changed, silencing her screams the best they could. The morning she awoke she opened her eyes to Sam sitting on the bed beside her. They had made a deal, as long as she hunted animals, not people, she could remain in Forks. The treaty with the Cullens would not apply to her, she would be allowed on the reservation lands as long as she had already hunted. She remembered being honored, a cold one allowed on reservation lands, it was unheard of. Her throat had started to burn as they talked and by the time their deal was struck she had felt like a white hot poker was sliding down her throat. They moved aside as she scrambled from the house and into the woods. She could smell them following her: half out of curiosity and half out of the need to make sure that she stuck to the deal in her newborn stage.
Her first kill was a deer, she dragged it to the ground and drained as much from it as she could. Seeing her own wrist have her an idea, pulling as much of her venom back into her she felt the blood change back to the same taste it had been when she started, clear. She pulled all of her venom back and turned to the wolves that were following her.
"Guys, do you want the meat? I took all of the venom out of it." She asked, blood staining her lips. Her eyes were no longer the pitch black that they had been, they were a pale red.
"Are you sure that it is safe?" Sam asked looking at the buck on the ground beside her.
"Yep. It should be a great amount of meat for the tribe." Sam nodded. An odd symbiotic relationship began there and then. When Bella hunted she would pull the venom back out as she drained it, the pack would skin and prepare the animal and the tribe didn't have to worry about meat. Jacob and one or two others would accompany her on all of her hunting trips. Just in case.
She graduated high school on time, spending a lot of time each morning making herself look like the old Bella every morning. Not even Charlie suspected a thing. They were all glad she was out of her funk and spending time with friends all over the area. She went away to College in the fall. Bella would occasionally go back to visit, but she was in love with Boston.
A year after going to college she met Serena. Out-going, well read, beautiful, fashionable, dying Serena. She had a terminal blood disorder that was going to kill her sooner or later. They were fast friends. Months later Serena figured out Bella's secret and asked to be changed. It took a while but Bella gave in to her persistent requests and changed her. That was the evening that she realized that she would never bite a human without a real cause. Serena's blood made her sick to her stomach. No sooner did she swallow then she ran to the bathroom and threw up the blood. Bella didn't know if it was because Serena's blood wasn't healthy or if it was because her body was meant for it.
Daphne had found them, she was trying the vegetarian lifestyle and decided to join them. The girls were great support for each other. Unlike Serena, Daphne nor Bella found the smell of blood irresistible. The trio talked about their mortal lives a lot, telling each to her everything. After graduating the three left to tour Europe for a year or two. London was where they found Michael, his body broken from a hit and run, his time running out. The look in Serena's eyes made them stop. She was in love with him after just seeing him. Serena begged for a few minutes for the others to help her save him. They argued for a few minutes but gave in and it was decided that since Bella was the only one with any experience changing people she would be the one to change Michael. Serena wasn't sure she would stop in time and Daphne was not positive that she could force herself to do it.
While Michael was changing Bella taught them to pull the venom out of their prey. They decided that the little coven would leave the butchered bodies on the doorsteps of the houses of Europe's poor. They avoided Italy until Michael was completely in control of himself. As soon as they entered Italy, Bella received a small missive that the Volturi would like to speak with them. Aro and Marcus liked her little coven, compared them to the other vegetarian families that were springing up around the world. They questioned them about their lifestyle choices, never in a rude way, before telling them that they were free to leave the city. The coven was also given the instructions to call upon the Volturi should they ever need anything.
A letter was waiting for them when they returned to Boston at the end of the second year. Jacob had written that Charlie had died the previous winter while driving back from Port Angeles. The coven moved around the country for a while, Bella never wanted to stay in one place for too long. When the coven had tired of the Miami nightlife Bella called Jacob about returning to Forks, with some company. He cleared it with the pack and helped her begin moving the coven to Forks.
Now, they sat in a plane crowded with humans, as it began its descent into Washington. Bella took a good look at her coven mates. Michael and Serena were cooing at each other across the isle from her. Daphne, who was sitting next to her, caught Bella's eyes and pretended to gag. As they began their descent all four straightened their clothes and the girls fixed their makeup. Bella had been informed by Jacob that he would be accompanied by Sam and probably Quil and Embry, when they were met at the airport. This was for not only introductions but also to remind her and her coven of the rules. She unconsciously smiled as she heard the pack whispering from across the airport. Daphne applied another swipe of makeup to her neck and stepped out into the sunlight on the tarmac, sans the tell tale sparkle of their iridescent skin. The coven collected their bags from the carousel and walked back outside. Jacob had brought her old truck and a large van. They all piled in and Sam spent the first ten minutes of the trip explaining the rules to the coven. That was followed by the ins and outs of living in Forks. Her coven agreed, like good vegetarians, to all of the rules.
They drove to Bella's old house. Bella had had Jacob hire contractors to add on to the second floor and dig a basement. Daphne had been given free reign to decorate the house as fashionably as she wanted. Their furniture from Miami would be arriving in two more days. They settled in and life went on for them, with everyone finding their own niches to fill. Michael put his law degree to good use and joined a small family law practice in Port Angeles. Serena and Daphne opened a small boutique in Forks specializing in one of a kind apparel and home furnishings. Daphne designed and sold all of the clothes while Serena billed herself as an interior decorator. Bella opened a small bookshop and cafe near the high school. Months went by and one evening, on a whim while hunting, Bella went to the Cullen's old house, with her coven. As they skirted the edges of the property Daphne went rigid.
"Daphne, whats wrong?" Bella circled back to her.
"I see this house coming alive with activity again soon. Defiantly with in the next three months, though, choices can be shown to bring them back with in the next five weeks. Bella smiled reflexively.
"Well that throws a monkey wrench in my plans. Its up to you guys. We can stay and come into contact with a family larger that our own or we can move on to the other side of the reservation."
"I say we stay. If they want to fight over territory with us then we will handle that." Michael said smiling cruelly. The girls agreed. Bella turned and led them to the old boundary line. She stepped over it very carefully and paused for a minute before racing for the meeting place. It took just a few seconds for half of the pack to meet them in the small grove. They had grown in numbers in the recent months.
"Sam, Jacob, they are coming back. Daphne saw it." Bella said when everyone was listening.
"Well that's fun. Please do not take offense to our hatred of the Cullens."
"None taken, We don't particularly like them either ourselves. At least, we don't like Him." Serena growled, and Michael's arms went around her waist.
"Are you going to be okay Bells? He has already hurt you once." Jacob asked, coming closer to Bella and pulling her to him.
"I'll be fine. Edward can only haunt me if I let him. I expelled him from my mind already once in my lifetime. He never came back after I left for Boston did he?"
"Nope, we haven't smelled or seen him since he walked away from you in the forest that day." Sam said putting a warm hand on Bella's cold shoulder. She smiled and pushed her hair over her shoulder before looking down at her black knee boots and knee length blue and green dress, one that Daphne had designed for hunting and sex appeal.
"We need to go. We'll talk to you later." As an after thought Bella added. "Jake, I miss cooking, if you boys want to stop by tomorrow night I'll make you all some of my old spaghetti, that you used to love."
"Really, I thought the sight of food made you feel sick to your stomach?"
"Not really. Me and Michael are a little different than most. We can handle a little bit of normal food, we need blood just as much as the next vamp. But we apparently were built for blending in with the humans more."
"That's cool. I know Billy misses your sauce." Jacob said trying not to hint at that he would like a lot of the sauce.
"I'll make extra in containers you two can freeze and eat later." Jacob grabbed Bella and spun her in a circle, whispering 'thank you'. The coven left to prepare themselves for the Cullen Family's return.
When the pack arrived for dinner the next night they were surprised to see the house heavily fortified from within. Quil asked what was up with security cameras. Bella led them down in the basement to a small safe room. The safe room had a wall lined with video monitors and recording devices. There was a fridge built into the wall on the other side of the room. On the wall opposite the door, there were weapons of every kind that if they needed to fight their way out of the house they could. They finished the tour of the modified house, it was only to their eyes that you could see things had been changed. Most of the security upgrades had been molded into the design of the house. The whole group sat down for dinner and the wolves were surprised when everyone dug into the pasta in front of them. It took a few minutes for some of the wolves to realize that there were two separate pots of sauce. One sauce that was Bella's traditional sauce and the other was one modified for the four vampires in the room. The wolves got a little queasy until Bella assured them that there was no mixing up the sauces and they were fine. At the end of the meal Bella produced a huge bag filled with containers of sauce that were easily two or three person servings. Goodbyes were said and the statement made that they would be spending more time prowling and being in town, just in case anything happened.
A few weeks later Bella was growing tired of the watchful eyes of not only her coven but also the pack, at least one of them would stop by the house each night to check on them. She got dressed to go hunting one evening by pulling on a deep purple sweater that clung to her body and barely covered her ass and a pair of gray leggings. Daphne was known to coordinate their outfits when she washed everyone's clothes. This way outfits were easy to assemble and everything worked well together. She left the house two hours before sunset and ran towards her favorite spot to sit and think about things. Bella never left the house without first applying the makeup that kept her skin from glowing in the sunlight. It was a simple enough mixture of stage and standard makeup that they had discovered in College on one of their trips to Paris. Daphne had not been able to nail down when they would return, like the Cullens were not sure about returning to Forks so soon after leaving. On her way out the door she grabbed a small blanket and took it with her into the meadow.
When she got to the meadow, where so many of her memories lived she laid the blanket out on the ground and laid down to watch the clouds and think. She couldn't tan but she could lay in the sun to her hearts content without making so much of a glimmer. As she laid in the field she masked her scent, just in case today was the day after all. Her family could find her if they needed to but she doubted that anyone else would bother her. Bella pulled a worn copy of Wuthering Heights from her bag and lost herself in the novel. Three pages into reading she heard a stick break, almost as if on purpose, to let her know that someone was coming, or to gauge if she heard it.
She smelled the air to see if it was a member of the pack, an animal or a hiker. Bella caught the smell of apples and a heavy floral scent. Both were sweet, overly so and not natural to the area.
'Meadow. Now. They are here' Bella sent a mental yell to her coven mates, also knowing that Jacob and the Pack would hear her.
'On our way. Should we call the Pack?' Michael asked.
'Jacob and Quil are already on their way.' She responded and proceeded to clear the area of anything that would say vampire to the Cullens. Bella smiled and stood. Rosalie and Alice stepped into the clearing. 'Obviously they are trying to hide their strength and their numbers.' As they approached her, still trying to figure out if she was human or not. Rosalie sped up and Bella giggled to her self about them not recognizing her. Bella studied their faces as they drew closer, she could tell by their confidence that Jasper and Emment, if not the rest of the family, was on their way to the clearing to defend their territory. 'Guess they made me for the enemy. This is what happens when you leave your lands undefended.' Bella thought to herself. Michael, Daphne and Serena entered the clearing from her right, causing a look to pass between Rosalie and Alice. They did a double take when Jacob, Quil and a few other members of the pack arrived from the left. Bella smiled, this couldn't have been better if they had preplanned the arrivals.
"Your on our side of the line dog." Rosalie growled, forgetting about the other vamps in the field. The clouds disappeared and the meadow was flooded with sunlight. Her eyes flooded with panic as both Rosalie and Alice began to glow as the sun hit them. Bella's coven mates had reached her by the time the duo turned back around. Michael had a hand on her shoulder with his other arm wrapped around Serena, while Daphne stood off to the side, watching. The pack pulled closer, fanning out around Bella and their coven.
"Treaties change. As long as I behave I can come and go." Jacob said with a grin as he phased back, Quil followed his lead but Embry and Seth stayed as wolves. Bella slid her sunglasses from her eyes and placed them in her hair.
"Down Boys, they are here for us."
"But its just the two of them. Can't we just chase them off?" Quil whined.
"No, its not just the two of them. The others are in the woods. Besides Beta, you boys can't hunt the Cullens till the treaty is broken. Y'all can come out now. No need to hide." Serena said, her voice carrying gently across the field. Michael listened in on the conversations that the Cullens were having as they stepped out the trees. Jacob laughed as they all started to glitter as they approached, Bella shot him a look and he bit his lip to quiet down.
"Aw, isn't that cute, you really think that you can make us leave." Bella giggled.
"Bells, don't tease the bloodsuckers." Quil said purposefully stirring the pot.
"Bells?" Alice paused for a second. Her eyes snapped to mine. She barely registered who I was before she jumped on me. "When did this happen? I never saw it?"
"Alice what are you going on about? Get off of the poor girl."
"Carlisle, Esme, thank you for inspiring me to be vegetarian after my change." Esme's eyes flashed in recognition, Edward read one word in her mind 'Isabella' before he turned and fled. Serena laughed, Bella let down the block that held back their thoughts and feelings. Emment ran forward and grabbed her around the waist. Michael growled, as did Jacob.
"Let's retire to our house to talk. I don't think he will be back for a while." Carlisle said with a smile, like Esme he had not really wanted to leave. No one really wanted to leave it was just too dangerous to be around Bella, at least they thought she would be safer. The smaller coven traded looks. Emment sat her back down on her feet. Jacob walked towards Bella, his shirt was missing as were his shoes and wrapped his arms around her cold stomach.
"You gonna be okay?"
"Yeah, Jacob. I think we should be okay. I'll give you a shout if we need any help." She smiled at him and kissed his forehead. "Tell the boys to leave Edward alone. He needs his space for a bit. They didn't expect for me to be a vampire when they returned."
"I know, I just can't have him hurting you again. I love you too much to see you like that again. We just got our Bella back. Don't let him make you run."
"I know Jacob, I love you too. Let me go. Serena is going to blow a gasket if I don't do something soon. You know how it tires her to hold that behemoth she calls her mate back."
"Yeah. Sorry Rena." He whispered over Bella's shoulder. "Hunting tomorrow night. Or are you guys going to need the stress relief of a late night hunt tonight?" Bella flicked her eyes towards her coven mates, there were two nods.
"I'll give you a shout when we leave the Cullen's house tonight. I think we are going to need it." Bella pulled back and smiled. "We would love to be invited in to your house. Shall we follow you or will you want some time to coordinate things before we arrive?"
"You can follow us dear." Esme said with a smile. "Unless you need to do something before you come over?"
"No, we are good." Bella smiled again. "Emment, want to race?" Serena stepped forward and placed a hand on Bella's arm. "No its okay. You go back and get the car. You can find me." Jacob and the pack phased and took off into the woods, back towards the reservation, no doubt to report on the events to Sam and the Elders. Serena nodded to Michael and the pair of them took off into the trees, running home to change and get the car. Daphne joined Bella near the Cullens. "Catch me if you can Emment." Bella took off, Daphne at her side. They both knew the way back to the Cullen's house. Emment crashed through the trees behind her, followed by the rest of the family. She plopped on their front porch to wait for their return.
"How did you beat me?" Emment said plopping down next to them.
"How did you get so slow?" Bella retorted. Which led to him picking her up and tossing her over his shoulder. Which led to Daphne hissing at him, her body tense like she was going to jump on him. "Its okay Daphne." Emment dragged them both into the house and tossed Bella onto the sofa. As they others approached Bella and Daphne stood, their backs to the wall, facing the door. Giving themselves as much cover as possible. Just in case. Behind the Cullens Bella saw her Blue convertible pull into the driveway and her other two coven mates walk up the front steps. The Cullens stood on one side of the sofa with Bella's coven on the other side.
"Bella why don't you introduce us to your companions?" Carlisle said.
"This is Daphne Carrington, Serena Manax and Michael Coleson. These are my coven mates." Bella smiled as she told one family about the other. "Guys these are the Cullens. Carlisle and Esme, Jasper and Alice, Rosalie and Emment. Edward is MIA at the moment." Bella struggled to keep her thoughts together when she mentioned Edward. Jasper's eyes jumped to Bella's face and he smiled to himself before whispering in Alice's ear. Bella slammed her shield down around her emotions and then spread it to encompass her whole coven. Blocking Jasper from reading them.
"Guys, everything is going to be fine. Let's just all sit down. No need to be on alert. Its Bella we are talking about." Alice smiled. Her eyes glazed over and then she bounced around the room. Everyone settled on the sofas in their normal arrangements. The Cullens found it odd that the three girls sat on the sofa, Bella in the center, Daphne on her left and Serena and right. Michael stood directly behind them a hand on Daphne and Serena's shoulders. Unconsciously Serena and Daphne were touching Bella's arms. Rosalie could see that it was a defensive stance, one that allowed them to not only move in any direction at a moments notice but also feed power to Bella, or which ever one of them had a defensive power.
Alice studied them with vigor. Bella's taste had either improved or one of the others dressed her. Serena was wearing black skinny jeans with a ruby red tunic over it, cinched at the side and pearls on her wrists, fingers and neck. Her black hair was perfectly straight and fell to her mid back, her eyes were a dark amber. A classy chic look that said money with out screaming it. Michael was wearing baggy black pants, a white undershirt and a green dress shirt, unbuttoned and with the sleeves rolled. His hair a burnished red, like copper kettles on the hearth and his golden eyes were flecked with black. Daphne wore a knee length black tank dress that had slits on either side, along with black and white checked spike heels. She had an olive complexion, with her shoulder length blue black hair in tiny braids and light amber eyes. A collective sigh went through the four on the other sofa and they seemed to settle in for a long question session.
"What happened when we left Bella?" Esme asked, the emotion in her eyes led Bella to believe that she would be crying if she could.
"Laurant and Victoria happened. I was wandering around the meadow just thinking. They grabbed me from no where. Each taking a turn biting me. Jacob saved me."
"What happened then Bells, I never got a peek at what happened." Alice said throughly interested in what had blocked her visions.
"They argued. The pack took me in. I stayed with Jacob and Billy for the first few days. After about two weeks I went back to school and continued on."
"You were a newborn... you could have murdered the whole town? Didn't anyone see your red eyes?" Jasper asked, his experience around newborns sending him into overdrive.
"Silly Jasper. I've never had really red eyes, they were pink for a bit. Everyone at school was used to that though. They were just happy I wasn't at home or being a zombie."
"But what about the bloodlust?" He countered.
"Never happened. Still really can't stand the smell of blood. It gives me an awfully upset stomach." Bella giggled at the faces of the Cullens. Jasper's jaw was on the floor. He had never heard of a newborn without the bloodlust.
"What did the dogs mean by you would meet them later to hunt?" Carlisle asked.
"I hunt with the pack. We butcher the meat and provide it to the families in the tribe for free."
"Isn't the meat dangerous? There is still venom in it."
"Nope. If you stop before the animal is drained you can take the venom back. When I'm done with the animal there is no blood and no venom." Carlisle seemed impressed that Bella was trying to help those around her.
"How did you guys meet?" Rosalie asked. Her face had softened and she seemed to be okay with being in the same room with Bella.
"I was dying of cancer. Bella was my roommate at Boston. I figured out what she was one night and asked her to change me. The doctor had only given me a few more weeks to live." Serena answered. "Daphne found us. Then we found Michael after graduation. Bella changed him after we found him dying on the side of the road."
"The girls dragged me across Europe. Stopping in so many cities, experiencing so many cultures. I think the most fun that we had was right before we were invited to visit the Volturi." Michael said with a smile, knowing that his comments would send the others into overdrive.
"What." Alice sputtered. "When did you visit the Volturi?"
"About three months before Charlie died. They actually invited us to stay for the party season but we needed to get back to the States for some serious event planning." Serena tensed her forearm and Daphne shut her mouth. Bella's eyes flickered at the mention of the funeral she hadn't known was happening, for the goodbye she didn't get to say.
"Where are you guys staying? There is plenty of space if you need a place." Esme said, hoping that they would agree to stay.
"We modified my old house to our liking." Bella smiled at her. "Thank you for the offer though, it means the world to us." Esme nodded, disappointed.
"Happier question. Do you have any powers?" Jasper asked, over whelmed by emotions from his family. The smaller coven laughed.
"The oddest ones you will ever think of. Daphne can see the past a future of objects and places, its how we knew that you were coming back. Michael, I guess you would call him a feeder. He can borrow energy from one person and give it to another."
"Is that why all four of you are touching?" Michael nodded at Emment's question. The muscles in Serena's neck tensed, causing Bella to think carefully about what she was going to say next.
"Serena doesn't have one. I'm a shield, both for mental and physical attacks."
"I think that is enough questions for tonight. What are your plans for tomorrow?" Carlisle asked.
"Shopping, work, a few other things on the sides." Perfectly vague, answered Daphne. She was running through as much of the info that Bella had told them about the Cullens. Bella twitched her fingers in a small arch on her lap, a signal that the coven had decided meant it was time to get out of the situation. Michael's stomach growled causing Daphne to giggle while both Bella and Serena tensed. Normal vampires, vegetarians or not, did not have stomachs that growled at them. The Cullens were startled.
"I think that we should be leaving." Bella said pulling the others up with her. Serena glared out the window at the car and the doors unlocked with a faint click. Bella expanded her shield to block all of the Cullens' powers from effecting her coven.
"We'll see you late." Carlisle said as they flittered out of the door, trying not to look like they were fleeing from the house. As the little coven reached the car Bella jumped in the drivers seat and gunned the engine. They were quickly out of the driveway. This would be discussed later, in both house. Bella knew that Cullens would like to know what was going on.
