I don't own these characters that's all SM.

Giovanni's POV

She closed the door slowly. I can't believe she knew what I was thinking, maybe it was another of her powers, and how did she know I thought of myself as a monster. Bella was really something else. Every time I'm near her I feel… happy. I haven't felt happy for 500 years, I know for a fact she is my mate and I don't care about her being Alec's anymore, I will have her. Being with her has made me reconsider asking for death, maybe there was reason to my life now. I was smiling and walking down the hallway until I saw a peeved off Jane.

"What's wrong sister?" I asked.

"Follow me." Was all she said and she said it coldly.

We walked and walked until she abruptly stopped. "Jane?" I asked cautiously.

She then just exploded into a fit. "Why are you doing this to Alec? You know how hard it is for him to show his emotions. Even after 500 years you know he's no different! I love you Giovanni, I really do and I've missed you but how could you even hurt him like that, before we even had a chance to really talk you already picked a fight with him about Bella!"

"I didn't pick a fight!"

"Yes you did! Alec was finally happy, why couldn't you have just kept your mouth shut so he could've felt whole for just one day!"

"Why? Jane why can't I be happy? I know Alec has always been your favorite brother, and don't try to deny it, and I also know you guys had a rough childhood, but I did too! Have you ever stopped to think what it was like knowing your mother for two years and then her being gone? You guys always assumed I was father's favorite, but when no one was around who do you think was his punching bag? As soon as I was old enough to go to university, I went and tried to help you guys with distracting him and after you guys left. I had no one and that's how it stayed for four years! Now I finally find someone and I'm not even aloud an opportunity"

She stood there surprised with her jaw agape."I'm so sorry, Giovanni, it's just… I just… please forgive me; I just wanted to have one of my brothers happy." She flung herself at me and hugged me, I hugged her back, but she wouldn't have hugged me if she knew what I did to them all those years ago. I comforted her for a couple of minutes then walked to the library to clear my thoughts. I read 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' and was done by 5 in the morning. I got up and walked up to Bella's room. I stopped outside the door and heard two voices.

"I love you, Alec I really do." A voice that was sounded like Bella said.

"Then, please stop seeing him." A voice that belonged to Alec pleaded.

"Okay, I'll quit seeing him; he doesn't mean anything to me anyways." Bella replied. I then heard the sound of a slight rustle of bed sheets. "Now leave please, I have to get ready for the day."

"Fine I'll leave but can I come for you later?"

"Yes you can, now go."

The door to her chamber opened and out stepped a shirtless Alec. "I knew it was too good to be true, I have to go get some air." I yelled out running down the hallway trying hard not to break down in sobs.

"Giovanni, wait!" Bella called out. But I didn't wait I bolted into the nearby forest.

Bella's POV (After the date)

When I closed my door completely I sat down on my bed reflecting on today. I was reflecting for about 15 minutes until I got bored, then I grabbed my very worn our 'Wuthering Heights' book. I read it from beginning to end when I was assaulted with visions of the Cullens. They all seemed happy enough but I couldn't see Edward. My vision ended but I tried to bring it back to see how my ex- fiancé was holding up. Alec came in my room… shirtless. I looked at his chest for about 15 minutes until he coughed loudly and smirked at me.

"What's with no shirt today?" I wondered aloud.

"Well I was about to go to the training room and this is how I usually practice." He explained while sitting next to me. "What were you trying to do; you looked like you were really concentrating."

"Oh, I was having a vision of the Cullens but I couldn't find Edward, I was looking for him."

"Why were you looking for him? Do you not love me?" he asked looking hurt.

"I love you Alec, I really do."

"Then please stop seeing him." Alec pleaded.

"Okay I'll quit seeing him; he doesn't mean anything to my anyways." It was probably good I wouldn't see Edward he'd probably look in pain and I didn't want to see that. I sat up from my bed and rustled the bed sheets a little why doing so. "Now leave please; I have to get ready for the day." I declared.

"Fine I'll leave but can I come for you later?"

"Yes you can, now go." I told him while pointing at the door.

He opened my door and stepped out to reveal a very hurt looking Giovanni. "I knew it was too good to be true, I have to go get some air." He yelled while running out the hallway.

"Giovanni, wait!" I called out running towards him. He was bolting out into the forest.
