Bella's POV

I was standing in my bathroom trying to brush through my damp hair when I heard a knock at the front door. From outside the bathroom I could hear Edward growl softly which left no question to whom it was. I stepped into the hallway and saw my true love leaning against the banister with a look of disgust plastered onto his inhumanly beautiful face.

"Edward," I whispered while shaking my head at his disapproval and stood on my tiptoes to kiss his icy lips "I will be right back,"

I trudged down the stairs careful not to trip and kill myself going down, and opened the door. Who I saw there was not whom I expected

Quil Ateara was standing in front of me maybe another foot taller than I had previously saw him. Good God do these boys ever stop growing?! I thought to myself shaking my head. His head was low and he looked upset. I reached out to him and he shook his head.

"Bella, I-" Quil started shaking, I immediately thought that he was about to change into werewolf, which is to be expected when the La Push boys got angry, but then my heart melted. He started sobbing; tears were streaming down his tan face.

"Quil? What's wrong?" I stepped forward and hugged the huge boy to my small body and started to carefully rub his back. "Jake," Quil tears continued. "Jake, he-" Quil retreated back into another sob. My heart skipped a beat, Jake? Jacob? My best friend? What happened?! My mind raced thinking of thoughts too horrible to think about for too long. Almost as if he could sense my distress, I felt Edward's cold hand on my shoulder.

"Quil, What about Jake?!" I almost yelled. I grabbed his shaking shoulders and tried to make him look at my filling eyes. "Tell me!" "Please!" I turned my head around to look at Edward who still had the same look of displeasure on his face. "Edw-" I started.

"Don't come near me!" Quil shouted. He ripped himself from my embrace and stepped backwards pointing a shaking finger towards Edward. I was frozen in shock. Not only was Quil, whom I haven't seen since before Edward came back, crying on my front porch, but also obviously thinks my Edward, my perfect Edward has done something to him. Ripples were going down Quil's spine this time not from sobs. "He killed him! Your precious bloodsucker killed Jake!" My heart stopped. This couldn't happen. Jake can't be dead. He can't be! I never saw him smile again after that day I chose Edward before him! No! He wouldn't. Edward wouldn't do that, he knew how much Jake means to me! No he's wrong!

"No," I whispered. Edward and Quil looked at me. "No!" I almost collapsed right there.

"What are you talking about you mutt?! And don't you dare change in front of Bella! Don't you d-" Edward roared.

"I wouldn't do that! I would never hurt Bella! But you are a different story you, you LEECH!" Quil lunged at Edward and faster than I had ever thought possible Edward was in front of me throwing me back into the house.

As I tried to sit up on the floor of the entrance hall I saw Quil Burst into his wolf form, shreds of clothes went flying, as I saw my Edward pushing Quil back into the forest. I immediately ran for the phone.

It didn't ring once before I heard a distressed Alice on the other end.

"Alice, Quil and Edw-, Jake he's and Edward because h-" I stumbled over words trying to get them out of my mouth, but instead broke into frustrated and terrified sobs.

"I know Bella, I know, I saw Quil coming. Emmett and Carlisle are on their way to find Edward and Jasper and I will be at your house as soon as we hear from them." My tears flowed down my cheeks as I listened to Alice try and soothe me. All I wanted to know where Edward was so I could lay on his cool chest.

"Bella? Bella? Are you there?" Alice's voice probed waking me from my nightmare of Edward and Quil fighting.

"Yes," I said into the phone. Hoping Alice could hear through my irregular breathing.

"Okay, we will be there soon, stay put Bella." Her last words were a command not an option. I heard the phone click on the other end.

I set the phone down and went to sit on the couch. So much for a regular Saturday with Edward. I thought before crumbling into the fetal position trying to not think about what was occurring in the forest in front of Charlie's house. I didn't hear anyone come in over the sound of my sobbing. I felt a small cool hand on my back and I rolled over to see a concerned Alice asking Jasper a question to fast for me to hear.

"Oh Alice! Jake! Is it true?! It can't be!" I felt a wave of calmness wash over me and realized the Alice had asked Jasper to use his gift to quiet me. Alice sat down and easily pulled me into her lap.

"Shhhh, Shhhh, Bella it will be alright, Shhhh," Alice rocked back and forth stroking my back.

Soon my sobbing turned into quieter whimpers and I sat up to face her.

"Alice please tell me what is going on," I pleaded looking into her topaz eyes for any show of what had gone on.

"Bella, I need you to calm down a little more before I explain thing to you." She tried to lightly pull me back to her lap, but I resisted.

"Please Alice, please," I looked back and forth between her and Jasper, who was now sitting in Charlie's recliner.

"Okay," Alice looked down for a moment, probably trying to figure out how to tell me everything with out upsetting me. "Jake was found this morning in his room." My breathing stopped I knew what she was going to say. "He was barely alive, he had scratches everywhere and was bleeding horribly, he died 5 minutes after his Dad found him."

I didn't notice the stinging in my eyes until tears began to once again flow rapidly down my face. "No, please no," I whispered. Without even thinking about it my legs were up against my chest and I was rocking back and forth trying to comprehend what I had just heard.

"Bella, it was a vampire who killed him." I looked up into Alice's eyes and suddenly understood Quil's reason for being so angry, he thought this vampire was my Edward.

"How could you know that? For sure," I asked cautiously.

"Only a vampire could do the damage that was clearly done." I didn't quite understand so I stared at her, willing her to continue. "Werewolves heal fast. Unless it is a vampire who injured them." I winced at her words. She continued quickly, "Jacob had to have lost a lot of blood really fast, to die." It was finally clear, it all made sense. No other being but a vampire could have hurt Jake so badly as to actually kill him, when I myself have seen him heal in a matter of minutes from being gashed.

I could no longer control the over whelming loss that I felt, Jacob was dead, the boy who kept me alive or I guess gave me back my life when Edward left. The warm, funny, loving boy that I loved more than a brother was gone, forever. I could feel the start of a hole, the hole I hadn't felt for months tearing at my torso. The hole, that Edward left, when he decided to leave.

I wrapped my arms around my stomach and felt wave after wave of calmness try and overtake me but my entire body latched onto the anguish that was rapidly thrashing through me.

I felt Alice's body up against mine, so I guess she had pulled me into her lap without me noticing, but her arms provided me no comfort. Only one person's arms could console me right now and he was out fighting with a werewolf in the forest.
