"The Life and Times of 'Perfection'"

Chapter Three: "Ellie's There,"

"Edward!" I wailed. I jumped out of Edward's cool arms, taking the blanket with me to cover my bare body. Edward was left on the bed, completely nude. But I couldn't dwell on that…that long.

"What?" Edward followed me, bouncing off the bed quickly, taking my face between his hands. "Bella, what is wrong?" His face was pained, and I could tell he thought he had done something wrong.

"Edward," I tried to collect my thoughts at light speed. "I…heard Victoria's mind. In Italy. The Volturi, they told her we were alive." I hoped he understood that.

"Wait, you heard Victoria's mind? Are you sure? That's too far away…isn't it?" Edward stroked my hair as I started calming down.

"I'm…positive it was her. She wanted to join the Volturi, but they turned her down and told her we were alive — and in Forks." I panted.

"Oh dear," Edward mumbled, leaning against the newly arrived bed. "This isn't good."

"No," I breathed, wrapping the sheets around me in a more comfortable position. He grinned at me slightly, despite the situation we were in. I glared back at him. "It's not."

Edward snapped back into reality, taking his eyes off my body, only to look again into my eyes. "We have to tell everyone,"

"Yeah, but we might want to get dressed." I told him, a little heat rising to my sparkling cheeks.

Edward made a playful 'Tsk, Tsk' noise. "Now, Bella. Let's not dwell on such trivial matters." I could tell he was trying to distract me from the current issue.

"Of course. How could I?"

I had changed into a dark navy blue dress, and tied my hair up into a half down-half up style. Edward looked flawless in his dark green turtle neck and clean khakis. We had changed quickly, and Edward was pacing back and forth, his expression calculating something. He looked up when I came out of the bathroom.

"Ready?" Edward's voice was overcome by fear. I nodded swiftly, then bounded out of the bedroom, Edward on my tail. We arrived in the living room quickly.

"Alice? Esme? Carlisle?" I whispered. But I still knew everyone could hear me if they were in the house. "Rosalie? Jasper? Emmett? Ellie?"

I slight breeze filled the room and it was soon filled up with seven more vampires.

"What?" Ellie muttered, gazing around the room with her eerie green eyes. Alice looked anxious.

"Yes, what?" Alice murmured. Immediately, her topaz eyes became blank and her body stiffened. She was a world away.

"Alice?" Jasper walked forward, taking his wife's hand. "What do you see?"

Everybody stepped slightly forward, but Jasper held out his hand. Ellie looked curious.

"I see a forest. The trees are high and very green. I slight trail is in the middle of the foreground." She mused. Edward gasped and I knew he was seeing the same thing she was.

Wait! I can read minds too.

I closed my eyes and focused on Alice's mind. Slowly, I fuzzy picture filled my mind and I focused harder.

I felt Edward's cool hand take mine. I was still warm for him.

Soon, the picture got even clearer, and I recognized it as the forest behind my house. Then, Ellie walked into the picture.

"It's the forest near my house. I know it." I mumbled. Edward started rubbing my hand to calm me.

"Ellie's there," Alice's voice chimed. I nodded, my eyes frozen shut.

I saw a rustle in the trees where Ellie was standing. She seemed to be calling out to someone. She looked almost 14 in the vision, which meant this vision must happen in the next four months.

All the sudden, a fiery red mane burst from the midst of the bushes.

It was Victoria.

Edward roared when he saw Victoria in his mind. I shuddered, but kept on watching.

Victoria moved even closer to Ellie, and snarled. Ellie backed up slowly, fear written all over her face. "Dad?" She called.

I could feel Edward shaking as he held me hand.

"Mom? Alice?" I could feel tears brimming at my eyes. This couldn't happen. We wouldn't let it happen Wouldn't.

Very quickly in the vision, Victoria sprang towards Ellie and landed on her, tearing at her flesh.

"No!" I cried out. I opened my eyes and the vision stopped. Alice collapsed into Jaspers arms, and Edward pulled me against his chest. I started to sob uncontrollably as Edward tried to comfort me. Although my face was against Edward's chest, I reached out in the general area of Ellie. A small, vulnerable body met my grasp and I pulled Ellie up into my arms. Edward's eyes were coal black, the blackest I'd ever seen them.

Ellie stared at everyone, confused. Edward mouthed, 'Don't say anything around Ellie,' to Alice, and Alice headed off into the other room, with everyone else at her heels. They wanted to know what happened.

A few hours later, I met Edward at the door. I had put Ellie in her room to lie down so everyone could talk. He lead me down the stairs and into the dining room, where all the other vampires were sitting at the table, staring at there hands. Esme looked up.

"We're sorry you had to see that, Edward and Bella," Esme spoke softly. Edward nodded slowly and pulled my along side of him. His face was smooth and solemn. In the few days Edward has known Ellie, he was already fully in love with her. He was such a wonderful father.

We sat down, and Edward took my hand under the table. I looked up at him, but his eyes were cold. He cleared his throat.

"We're moving,"

Everyone froze.

"Now, Edward. We to think this through. I mean th-" Carlisle protested. His eyes scanned Edward quickly.

"No. We're moving. Tonight. You don't have to come, but Bella, Ellie and I are leaving."

"Edward." Alice whimpered. "We can't just leave tonight…I mean…"

"No. We are leaving." Edward's voice shook with anger. "Bella, go pack a bag." I looked up at him, but he was set on his decision, and I was beginning to feel scared of him.

"Okay." I whispered. I charged up the stairs and threw in an extra outfit for me, Edward and Ellie into a duffel bag. I also put in some toiletries for Ellie in case she needed them. I snuck into Ellie's room, and got her out of bed. She looked confused, but eager.

"Where are we going?" Ellie asked me as I walked downstairs. Should I tell her the truth?

"We're moving," Yes.

Ellie's lips twitched, but she could tell something was paining all of us since the vision. She just didn't know what was. "Oh."

Edward was ready at the door, keys in hand. I pushed Ellie out the door and looked up at Edward. He looked down at me, then at Ellie running towards the Volvo.

"Edward," I whispered, leaning up to his face. "Everything will be okay."

He smiled, and bent his face down to mine. "I love you." He breathed against my face.

"I love you too." I whispered back. We reached the car, and Ellie jumped in the backseat.

"Just close your eyes, Ellie." Edward told her. She nodded, and laid down across the middle seat and sighed. I glanced at Edward, and he smiled for the first time tonight. "You too." So I did.
