BELLA'S POV

"What are you doing here?!?" I exclaimed. Tonks hung her head but I could still see her blushing and her hair had a little pink in it. Aww, she likes him.

"What? I can't just visit my god-daughter?" Uncle Remus laughed.

"No!" I stated and he stopped laughing.

He cleared his throat. "I came here for a reason, Lily." I smiled a little at the nickname.

"And what reason is that?" I asked.

"I'm here to take Tonks and Charlie back. We need them for the Order. I'm sure you know about the Order." Of course I did.

"Well, we should leave tonight." I suggested.

"You're not coming with us." Tonks suddenly said.

"What?" I whispered.

"I'm sorry Lily. But Dumbledore said─" I cut him off.

"Dumbledore? DUMBLEDORE? He's already taken a lot from me!" I exclaimed. "How could you let him do this?" I whispered, hurt.

"We need to trust Dumbledore Lily." Uncle Remus said firmly.

"I thought I had a bigger place in your heart." I said pathetically and started crying.

"I'm sorry Lily…" Remus said.

"I wish Sirius was my godfather. At least he'd care!" I glared at him.

"Of course I care?" He exclaimed.

"It doesn't look like it!" I said and ran to my truck. I drove as fast as I could and didn't look back.

"I hate Uncle Remus. I hate Tonks. I hate Charlie. I HATE DUMBLEDORE!

I slammed the door of my truck and ran to my room. Edward came in through the window.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Do I look okay?!?" I snapped at him. I didn't mean to but I was so angry!

"I only wanted to help…" He trailed off.

"Well you can't! Can you just leave?" I asked my head hurting. He looked worriedly at me but left anyway.

I got my phone and texted the one person I knew could help.

I'm Alone. I Got No One.

Help Me.

B E L L A

Now all I need to do is find a way out of this damned town.

~time passes~

I lay down on my bed, my mind thinking of endless & pointless possibilities. I've never felt so…alone before.

Just then my cell phone rang. It was Hermione,

Sorry. Still in France. Eating Bouillabaisse.

Really Sorry.

Great. What was I gonna do now? I needed to get out of here; and fast.

Then suddenly an idea occurred to me.

I wasn't entirely sure if it would work but I guess I could give it a try. Besides, it was the best idea I could come with…so far.

I hopped off the bed (carefully) ran down the stairs, grabbed my keys, rushed to my truck & drove off.

I kept driving until I was on the familiar trail the trail to the Cullen's house. I parked my car beside Rosalie's and took a long, deep breath. In my mind, I enlisted the things I would to once I stepped into that house:

First off, I would apologize to Edward for being such a git. Second, I would go to Emmett and probably have to go into a long and detailed discussion about my er…identity. Lastly, I would have to convince him and maybe Rosalie to help me get to the nearest…fireplace? Hmm…I haven't thought about that part through yet. Oh well, I'll think later.

I took another long breath then exhaled. I could do this.

I opened the side door and stepped out. Only to find my sparkly vampire boyfriend was just outside.

"Bella?" He said, standing up and rushing to me.

"Yes. Hi Edward I'm so sorry." I said, putting my arms around him.

"It's ok, Bella. I understand if you reaaly don't want to tell me." He said, hugging me back.

"Thank you." I said, kissing him.

"Um, if you don't , mind me asking, why are you here?" He said taking my hand and walking me to the house.

"Oh, um…actually, I um… Well, first, I wanted to apologize to you for being such a jerk. And um, I also wanted to talk to Emmett."

"Oh . Emmett's inside, playing with his new x-box. What'd you wanna talk to him about?" He asked curiously.

"Oh. Um, Ch-Charlie's away for the weekend, and um, I wanted to borrow his x-box, to um, you know, kill boredom." I said, smiling widely.

"Hmm…okay then. I'll be out here." He said, letting go of my hand and disappeared.

Okay, Bella. You can do this. Just get your act together.

"Hey, Emmett!" I said, walking into their living room.

"What's up?" He said, taking his eyes off the TV.

"Oh, nothing. Just wanted to talk to you about something." I said, aware that everyone else was listening.

"Shoot."

"Okay…Can we go somewhere quiet, like your room?" I said, standing up and bracing myself.

"Er…not my room. If rose sees us, her liking you will be history." He said, turning the x-box off and standing up.

"Fine. Let's go for a drive then. A slow drive, okay?" I said.

"Sure thing, Bells."

We walked outside and to his jeep. The engine purred silently as he started to drive.

"So…What'd you wanna talk about?" He said as he drove around.

"Oh well um…" I said, taking a deep breath before starting.

~time pasess~

"…And that's probably how we got here. You can't tell anyone." I said, after 5 minutes of explaining.

"Hmm…okay. So um, why can't this Hermione help you again?"

"She's in France, eating Bouillabbaisse." I said, remembering her message.

"It's food, Emmett. FOOD."

"Oh. Hehe." He said, looking completely clueless.

"Hmm, so all we have to do know is convince Rosalie." He continued.

"Really?! You'll REALLY help me?!" I said, ecstatically.

"Yeah, I'm gonna help you."
