Edward POV

I can't believe she heard my conversation with Alice. At least she doesn't think it's me, but on the other hand she thinks that someone is after her. I wonder what she heard.

"Bella" She looks into my eyes. "Yes"

"Well I was wondering if you happened to hear what the intruders were saying." She looked away for a moment then answered.

"Well…, mostly I just heard soft murmurs of sound I barely heard anything." She looks me dead in the eye as if trying to make me believe her. I have feeling she is hiding something from me. But, who am I to talk.

I cringe as I try to imagine the pain Alice describes that Bella will be in when I leave her. I can see it now crying for days and never leaving her room. Charlie will want to kill me for sure. I snap out of my trance and focus long enough to try and calm Bella down.

"Bella, I'm sure it's nothing but I will go check with Alice. I'm going to leave for a few minutes and ask her." I kiss her on the head and get up to leave.

Bella quickly shouts out, "Why do you have to go see her? Why don't you just call her from your cell phone and ask her if she saw anything?"

I try to think of something that will fix this problem. "My cell phone, I left my cell phone at home and I can't call her because… I don't have my cell phone." She seems to buy it because she tells me to hurry back. I leave fast and think about what in the world am I going to do about my current situation.

Bella POV

I can't believe that he just straight up lied to my face. Well, I did sort of do the same thing to him. But, I have good reason he plans on leaving me and this will not do.

As I wait for him to come home I start to think of things that I can do to get even with him. I come up with a few ideas. I could run away and leave a ransom note. No, that wouldn't work. That would get him worried and scared, but Alice would see that coming. Oh, I just thought of the perfect one. Since he wants to leave me, maybe I will give him a dose of his own medicine.

With my plan in motion I head up stairs to get ready for tonight.
