BellaPOV

Edward spoke.

"You don't know how utterly ashamed I am of myself, I just lose myself when I'm with Bella like that, I couldn't think straight. I let the monster inside of me get in control for a mere 5 seconds and all this happened. I ruined her life all for my selfish love" he started sobbing lightly, and I suddenly felt the need to comfort him, I was not mad at Edward, how could I be when I was sure of this future. I wanted to hold him close and whisper in his ear that I love him, unconditionally and irrevocablly, nothing would change that. This would be the beginning of my forever, no, our forever. My new family and myself. I couldn't help but to think of Charlie. I immediately stopped my thoughts, not wanting to think about that. The burning became more precise and I needed a distraction.

"Edward, noone is blaming you..." Esme's beautiful voice filled the room, then was suddenly cut off by a menacing snarl.

"I am, this is all your fault. How could you risk exposure over that girl. Have you even thought of the consequences of your actions, don't you know Charlie Swan is going out to look for her as we speak. And to make it worse you forged a note saying she was with you in the woods? You imbecile!!! Your a self centered, dimwited ass-"

"Thats enough Rosalie, insults will not help our problem" said Carlisle. "We all need to think of a good explanation for Cheif Swan and the rest of the town-"

"No we don't, we've moved remember, let's just take Bella with us and if her dad calls just say Edward broke up with her in the woods, she was so devasted she wanted to leave Forks. And while Charlie is out looking for her, we sneak into her house leave another note saying shes running away, then take her truck and leave it somewhere in Seattle. Bam everythings good and life moves on" Wait was that Emmett, he sounded intelligent. There was silence, and I felt the burn once again. It was all over me now, burning every ounce of my body. Why was it so quiet, had every one left, left me all alone burning? I heard Alice let out a short high pitch scream.

"Thats actually a good idea Emmett, it'll work I can see it now. We need to plan this out properly though. Lets go to the dining room and discuss this more, before Bella is done, it won't be long now. She going to be so pretty"

Edward hissed, "Bella was never merely pretty"

"Yes, Yes I know, Bella is stunning, blah blah blah. Now let's hurry up if we want to do this right"

I heard footsteps moving farther away from me. Silence. I needed another distraction. The burning was now in the center of my mind, and it hurt more then ever. I was panting, my heart was beating like a horse galloping in a big race. I don't know how long I've been lying here burning. Once in awhile i'll here a light sobb or a heavy sigh, but that lasted for about 2 seconds, then the burn would come back into the center of my mind, and be worse than ever. It seemed like months before I felt the the pain leave my toes, slowly saving me. The pain decreased from all my body parts slowly and began to build up in my heart. My heart was beating so fast, you'd think it was going to jump out of my chest. I heard footsteps quickly near me. And I felt hope. My hearts speed kept increasing, then suddenly the speed softened, sputtered then completely stopped. My heart had completely stopped beating. I wasn't breathing. I wasn't human anymore. I opened my eyes. I could see everything, every little detail in the ceiling, I took a deep breath, I could taste everything too. The room spelled like lavender. My throat was burning, but I didn't care right now. I sat up.

Edward was infront of me staring at me with an emotion on his face that I didn't understand. The others were standing behind him. Jasper and Emmett crouching protectively infront of the others. I sat there staring at them all for a few minutes, taking it all in.

"Bella, please say something" Edward said, his voice strained. It made me sad. I stood up and was now infront of him.

"Thanks for the warning Edward" I spoke confidently, in my new bell-like voice. "You could of at least given me time to prepare" I smiled. I tippy-toed until I could feel his breath on my face and kissed him. He seemed to hesitate. And I felt the pain of rejection I immediately pulled away, took 5 quick steps back and looked at my shoes. I was wear white nikes. I sighed and spoke.

"I'm guessing you don't feel the same way about me anymore, maybe you meant it when you said you didn't want me-" I was interupted when a pair of lips came crashing down on mine. Edward pulled me tightly to his body. He moaned into my lips which sent a spark of electricity through my body. It felt good. I wound my hands in his hair. He grabbed my butt and lifted me slightly so he wouldn't have to bend his head. We continued like this for God knows how long. I didn't need to breathe so we didn't need to stop.

We were interupted by Emmett's booming laughter. "Get in there Eddie, whooo hooo" I gasped, and stepped away from Edward, he loosened his grip and stepped with me resting his hands on my waist. He smiled his crooked-smile and I waited for the blush that never came. I would never blush again. I smiled back.

"Isabella Marie Cullen? hm or I might just go with Bella, yes Bella Cullen" My smile widened.

Alice squealed, and ran towards me. "Welcome to the family, Bella. I just can't wait to take you shopping" she jumped up and down holding my hands, before she leaned in and pecked me on the cheek. Everyone soon followed by gathered around me hugging me and welcoming me to the family. Rose even smiled, although it didn't reach her eyes, and Jasper apologized for what happened.

"Bella, I am absolutely delighted to have you in our family, you don't know what joy you bring us all" Esme said.

"Thank you so much Esme, you don't know how much that means to me"

"Yes Bella, I am happy that you are now a Cullen" Carlisle added.

"I'm also happy, thanks for everything" I smiled and leaned into Edward.

Carlisle turned serious "But, we really need to discuss what were going to do, oh but of course you should go hunting first, the burning mus be bothering you"

"hunting?" I choked out.

"Yes it'll be better if you hunted to get rid of the burning in your throat, Edward, Jasper and Alice will go with you"

"Oh okay, Fine I guess" I was nervous about hunting.

"Yes, well hurry back once you've finished" Carlisle said then turned and followed Esme out the door.

"We'll wait for you down stairs" said Alice taking Jasper hand and hurrying out the door with Emmett and Rose on their tail.

I sighed and turned to face Edward, he wrapped his arms around me and pulled me tightly to his chest. He rested his forhead on mine.

"I love you with all my heart Isabella"

"I love you Edward, unconditionally and irrevocably" he smiled and kissed me passionately, massaging my tongue with his. I moaned and muttered against his lips.

"Forever"

"And ever and ever and ever" he muttered back.

I heard a banging on the door, Edward froze and pulled away staring into my eyes.

"Uhm Edward, Bella. Charlie's outside with a whole SWAT team" Alice whispered.

My eyes widened. I took a deep breath and my throat burst into flames. I was thirsty.
