AN: This chapter was modified, due to the fact I just saw Breaking Dawn...and I screwed some things up...yeah.

Chapter 1

When I Think Everything Is Perfect...

Seth parked his truck in the front of our driveway. He was too young to drive, he had even admitted it. Well, to me anyway. We had been together, or that's what Alice calls it, for a good month now. The radio was turned on loudly, it was nice that I didn't have to listen to music alone anymore. Although, my family had been able to hear us coming for a while and we never got to say proper goodbyes because they would become annoyed. I reached for the volume and attempted to turn it down. He grabbed my hand after I turned it down. We had become a lot closer in experimenting about how close we could get. We could hold hands, hug, kiss, and lately the kissing had become very enjoyable.

"Are you going to be ok?" I asked. He hadn't acted like his usual talkative self today.

"I don't know, it's Jacob being gone and all. I was hoping he would cooperate by now and start talking to us. I know he has to hear us. I just can't believe he would just leave Bella and all of us." Seth told me looking out the window. "Doesn't help Bella called me today to check up on him. On top of that, the others are giving me so much crap about being with you and for being friends with your family and all."

"I'm sorry, I wish there was something I could do." I told him as he took my hat off the dial and put it on my head. I worried about that for him, at least he wasn't being shunned. They were all still hoping we were a silly fluke and that Seth just had a crush on me.

"Just keep being you for now, everything will work out." I could tell he was hiding something. I wasn't sure what, but I could tell when he was nervous about something. He just held my hand tighter.

"I am eventually going to have to get out of the car." I told him feeling the top of his warm hand. It was nice to not want to kill each other anymore. I occasionally smelt his horrid odor, but it was often just his friends.

"How long is eventually Taby?" Seth asked looking at me with his brown eyes.

"The end of the next song." I told him with a laugh. I wanted to be home by at least two o'clock tonight. It was one-fifty now. I knew my family didn't mind me being out almost all night, they didn't even mind it was with Seth. They had really grown to like him, Emmett wasn't comfortable with it, but he tolerated the relationship because he knew I was happy. They just had things they needed me to do. For instance, Alice wanted me to try on my dress for Ed and Bella's wedding, which happened to be the next day. I was going to be in charge of music. I did have guidelines though. Only classical music for the ceremony and I couldn't play anything other than classical for at least a half hour after the first dance. I really didn't mind, I had a job I might actually like which had a motivation to go home. I would also sometimes forget that Seth did need sleep, and he probably wouldn't sleep if I was around. He had patrol with Sam tomorrow, I wanted him to be ready. No matter how he said he would be ok.

"So what do you want to do for the next song?" Seth asked sliding a little closer to me, his warmth felt good. I turned to look at him and I kissed his lips. I loved kissing him, have I mentioned this before? It was sort of like how I remember it felt when I would come inside after being in the cold snow and my father had saved me some hot chocolate and it would sting my lips for a moment, but then the chocolaty goodness would soothe and be just wonderful.

There was a large slam on the front of the truck, it shook us both. We both got out of the car and looked around noticing a dent in the front of the truck with a rock stuck right in the middle. I looked over to the porch and through the porch light, I could see Emmett's outline. "I am so sorry!" I pulled the rock out of the truck and yanked the dent out. "I am going to go in now, apparently they need me."

"Yeah, I'll see you!" He kissed my forehead laughing. "I'll pick you up in the morning. Tell Emmett's next dent he puts in my truck he has to pay for my gass."

"Yeah, and he would be so threatened." I told him as he got in his car sarcastically.

I ran over to Emmett's. "You couldn't have given me," I looked down to my watch, one fifty three, "seven more minutes could you?"

"No. Just keeping an eye out for you Tabs." Emmett's said as I walked past him into the house.

"It was just kissing, not like it was anything else." I told him as I turned around on the porch and crossed my arms.

"Wouldn't know, you two spend enough time together." Emmett's said shrugging. He had always had my back, but this was ridiculous.

"You really want to know what we do all day, we play baseball, listen to music, talk, and kiss a little bit." I knew Emmett's did much worse with Rosalie for hours. I also knew, even my family sometimes had trouble trusting me with my gift and all. I didn't appreciate the fact he was treating me like I was twelve.

"Ok, just don't want you getting hurt." Emmett's walked inside with me following and rolling my eyes. Emmett's and Jasper soon ran off to get Edward for a "bachelor party" as they called it. It was basically just hunting.

I tried on my dress just like Alice wanted. It was very pretty. It was very late vintage. It had a skirt that flowed from my waist down to just above my ankles. The top was a swoop neck that showed off my shoulders. The color was especially perfect, a light blue. Alice had undone my braids again and I looked rather nice. I really wasn't worried about my outfit too much. I really wasn't worried about anything,

We worked all night long. While the rest of the family were working on their requirements from Alice, I was putting the finishing touches on my play list. While I was deciding between whether or not to play Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata or not, Carlisle came in.

"Hey Little Tabitha. Can I talk to you about something?" He came in and sat down beside me as I worked at my computer deciding upon songs.

"Sure dad. If this is about Emmett's freak out before about being alone with Seth all the all know I wouldn't even try doing what he is implying." I said defensively.

"Little Tabitha, it's not about that. You know I trust you. It's about how we're changing Bella soon and we will have to move because of the treaty. It's her choice, I'm sorry we all didn't think about how it would affect you." Carlisle told me as I looked up from the computer and began to freak inside.

"What? I love Bella and Ed, I want Bella to be one of us, but I never realized what it would cost." What was going to happen? I couldn't leave Seth, yet, I couldn't stay with my family then. They wouldn't harm me..Seth had imprinted.

"Little Tabitha, we may have to leave you here, are you prepared? When we change Bella, the treaty will be broken. You stay here. It is the best option for you. Carlisle told me standing as I felt more frustrated than before.

"I will try to be prepared." I felt like the Volturi were tearing my body apart. I lied. I would miss my family. "I will be fine."

"It's only a back up plan if you can't figure something out with the treaty.I'm sorry, this is so unfair towards you. After all the time we have spent trying to make sure you are happy in our family, now we have to loose you.

"Maybe not forever." I said turning my head with a smile.

Carlisle walked over to the door. "I'm sorry, you can make your own decisions. We will miss you."

"I will miss you too."
