APOV

Bella looked as though she was warring with herself, suddenly her face became determined and I saw her agreeing to join us as a vampire. I squealed happily but not loud enough to wake Charlie, "Great we'll change you tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? Why not today?" Bella frowned.

Irina, Kate and I shared a glance, "Bella, honey, you have to die." Kate explained. "You can't see Charlie anymore."

Horrified realization crossed her face, "You mean everyone here has to believe I'm dead?" she whimpered slightly, "But that would hurt them so much, Charlie doesn't have anyone."

"Sweetie, you don't have to do this. We'll understand completely if you don't." Rosalie's voice floated up.

Bella shook her head "I want this, I've wanted it ever since I met hi- you." she hastily covered her mistake but we all saw through it. She wanted to be with Edward for eternity, instantly my heart went out to her. Poor girl, to lose the one you loved like that must be terrible. It reminded me of my him, and I broke down.

BPOV

I stood as tall as I could, trying to impress the other vampires, when suddenly Alice broke down. I reached forward but Kate beat me to it.

"Oh, Alice sweetheart. It's alright, it'll be ok. He's not worth it honey, you just need to relax." She soothed Alice.

Irina was sniffling too, and Laurent was rubbing soothing circles on her back. "Kate is right, Ali, none of them are worth it, so show them what they're missing." Irina was also trying to calm Alice down but failing.

"What's wrong Alice?" I asked worried, as I reached out to her "Are you ok?"

Alice stopped sniffling to give me a weak smile, "What kind of question is that?"

"A dumb one I guess." Now I felt really stupid and could see the other vampires trying to stifle their laughter.

Alice took a deep breath and stood up, "Let's get ready for school. Can I do Bella Barbie? Please!!!"

I couldn't say no not right after she had broken down in front of me so I sighed and nodded. I was burning with curiosity as to why she had broken down and where the rest of them were, but I kept my mouth shut and knew that Alice would tell me if she thought I needed to know.

Twenty minutes later I was ready to go. I was exceptionally nervous because Alice and the others would be attending school, and Charlie would see the Cullens back again. Alice had dressed me in a blue v-neck sweater and a khaki skirt with black Mary Janes. She said I looked adorable but I knew I looked plain, especially when the others arrived.

"Bella?" Charlie called I felt my eyes tear up at the sound of his voice and I knew I would never hear it again.

"I'm almost ready Dad, give me a second." I heard silence answer me then he clomped up the stairs.

"Bella?" he opened the door and stuck his head in, "You sound, uh, better?" it came out as a question.

"Yeah, I think I'm over the depression now." I gave him a smile, "I'm going to be late so…"

He stood there shocked before saying, "Oh, yeah, um, sure I'll let you finish. You look, um, nice."

I smiled at his awkwardness, "Thanks, Dad." He nodded and shut the door. I took a few deep breaths to calm myself before grabbing my bag and heading downstairs, I wondered if Edward would come alone or if Alice would be with him. It would be wise to come with him; because I wasn't promising I could hold back Charlie.

There was a sharp knock on the door, "I'll get it!!" Charlie called. NO!!! If it was Edward he'd pitch a fit!!

"Hello, Charlie." I relaxed at the soft voice.

"Alice?" Charlie's voice was surprised, "I thought you and your family left town."

"Well, yes we did but I wanted to come back to Bella." Alice sounded sad.

"And there was no way in hell I was letting the pixie come without me!!" Emmett boomed.

Rose elbowed him hard, "Language Emmett!!"

"Sorry." He grinned at Charlie acting appropriately abashed.

"May we come in and explain?"

"Of course, Alice."

"Bella," Alice turned to me, "why don't you go wait in the car with Emmett?"

I grinned; Edward was probably in the car!!! "Ok, Alice, come on Emmy."

"Fine, but no more calling me Emmy." Emmett pouted as he walked to the car.

Charlie POV

I watched my daughter climb into the passenger side of the yellow Porsche, before turning back to the blond Hale girl, and Alice. "What's going on?" Alice's face instantly lost its cheery expression and the blond's darkened.

Alice shut the door and sighed, "Well, Mr. Swan, when he left he forced the rest of us to come along I didn't want to, really I didn't, but I'm only just seventeen. Rose, Emmett and I had been making plans to come back and check on Bella but Carlisle, Esme and the others wouldn't let us. Then-" she broke off and looked as though she might cry.

The blond took over, "Jasper was cheating on Alice with some slut, pardon my language, and when Alice found out Emmett and I were old enough to take responsibility for her. We did and decided to come back here." She finished by putting her arms around Alice comfortingly.

"Oh, Alice honey, I'm so sorry. He doesn't deserve you though, so try to forget about him." I tried to console Alice. I really wasn't good with crying women or girls. "It'll be ok."

The blond gave me a look as if to say, you're not really helping so shut up.

I cleared my throat uncomfortably, "Well, I, um I'm expected down at the station, so I'll see you later, Alice."

She nodded, "Yes, we'd best be going too, we don't want to be late for school."
