A/N Wow! This got such a strong response. I was shocked. Thanks to all of my reviewers. I appreaciate the support. I hope you like this next chapter. This is 100 years after chapter 1. I am not writing a sci-fi so just act like nothing changed.
What Did You See?
Edward's point of view
Beep! Beep! Beep! I reached into my pocket for my phone. I saw Alice flashing on the caller id. I flipped it open, knowing she wouldn't give up until I answered.
"What do you want Alice?" I asked her. She was silent for a moment, alerting me that something was wrong.
"Edward, don't get mad and freak out," she begged me. Wow. It really must be bad for her to start out like that. I wonder what happened. "Edward, I think you need to come home. I have to tell you something, but I know you will be your normal dramatic self and do something stupid unless you're here."
"Alice what are you keeping from me?" I asked her in a suspicious tone. I started running back to the house as I waited for her to answer. I had been out hunting before she called. I didn't really need to hunt, but I was desperate to get out of the house, away from the pity in their minds.
After I left Bella, I had gone on my own for awhile. I tried my hand at tracking for a time, but I wasn't good at it. I finally came home when Alice sent Emmett and Jasper to get me. I had been a mess when they found me. I was empty inside without Bella.
I stopped when I got to the door of the house. We were currently in Fort Yukon. It was an exact replica of our house in Forks. I heard everyone in the living room.
I walked in stopping in the entrance when everyone turned to face me. I tried to look in their minds to see what was going on, but all of them were blocking their minds. This instantly put me on alert.
"What's wrong guys?" I asked looking from one face to another before stopping on Alice.
"Edward, Carlisle just got a message from Aro and every vampire in the world has to report to Volterra." Emmett blurted out. Everyone turned to glare at him, I was just suprised that he had kept this from me this long.
"What's the occasion?" I asked in a bored tone. My question was met by silence. I looked around before my eyes settled once again on Alice.
"The brothers have adopted a daughter and are having a ball to celebrate her century." Carlisle answered, looking at me warily.
"Why are you guys acting so weird?" I asked. I turned to Alice, "Alice what's going on?"
"It's....Bella," she said looking down. I went rigid at the mention of her name. Bella was a vampire? She was in Italy? Why hadn't Alice seen this before? Wait, if she was alive, then that meant that I might still have a chance with her. I would definantly have to beg, but I was willing to do whatever it took.
"Why are you acting like someone died, no pun intended? This is great! She's alive. Maybe..." I trailed off as I looked back at Alice. She seemed as though as if she could cry she would be. "What's wrong?"
"Edward, I saw her. She won't take you back." I heard her say something else, but my mind couldn't process it. Bella didn't want me? I knew it was what I deserved, but still it cut my heart to hear. Despite my best effort, I had never lost the hope that Bella would always want me and wait for me.
I vaugly felt two pairs of arms wrap around me before I snapped. All I wanted was to die. I wanted the pain that was welling inside my dead heart to stop. I felt like I was suffocating and I just wanted relief. Why wouldn't they give me my relief?
I was fighting harder than I had ever fought before, letting my instincts guide me. I was clawing and kicking trying to free myself. I heard my captors grunt and groan as they tried to suppress me. The sound of our bodies crashing together echoed in my head.
I couldn't see anything around me anymore, all I could see was Bella. Her perfect face tilted up as if to look in my face. Her mahogany hair cascading down her back, with that one stubborn piece that wouldn't stay behind her ear. I beautiful brown eyes looking at me from under her dark lashes, a small smile playing on her full lips.
How could I live if she didn't love me anymore. Before I knew it, I was on the ground sobbing tearlessly. I felt a hand on my back. I didn't have the strength to protest. Through my agony, I heard Alice say, "Edward, we'll go to Italy and you'll win her back. I know it. Remember the future isn't set in stone."
I hoped that this would be the first time that Alice was wrong.
A/N Okay I know it was short, but this is just a filler. Next chapter, the real fun begins. I hope you will stick with me and review. I hope I portrayed Edward right.
