Edward already knows that Bella has been hiding something from him, something big, but the reminder that Aro is here and has heard every thought he's ever made clams him enough. Even though Aro knows his suspicions, many as there are, he doesn't know the truth.

Much like Edward doesn't, until Bella's eyes shimmer with tears that will never be shed as she puts her daughter onto Jacob's back and holds her tight. His little girl's own tears spill over, flowing down her cheeks like little glistening raindrops.

Bella gives Jacob a indiscernible look, one that tells him to be careful and look after himself and look after Nessie and protect her always. Then she turns away, stiff as a statue.

Edward steps next to her and takes her hand.

Together they watch the wolf ride off with their daughter and hope that they will see her again.
