Chapter Four

Within ten minutes, Edward and Alice Cullen were at their house. Reluctantly, Edward climbed out of the passenger seat, knowing what awaited him. Carlisle would be furious and disappointed, Esme would be confused and hurt, and Alice would just be adding to it. I can't really blame her though, he thought to himself, she was actually the one who stopped him from making one of the biggest mistakes of his life, after all. Would it really be a big mistake though? He couldn't help but to ask himself, which made his guilt level increase dramatically.

Alice waited by the door while Edward slowly climbed the stairs and continued waiting until he was inside before coming in herself and shutting the door behind her. Inside, Carlisle and Esme were standing beside one another simply awaiting an explanation although Edward got the feeling they already knew precisely what had happened.

"Well?" Esme prompted once it was clear no one was going to say anything just yet. Edward opened his mouth to speak but merely shut it again, thinking about what to say. Finally he opened it again and simply said, "She is my singer". This, obviously, caught all three by surprise.

"Your what?" Alice asked wide-eyed

"Well…" Esme said

"Well…" Carlisle repeated

"Your what?" Alice repeated her question also a bit louder, "What do you mean?"

Edward shrugged, not really looking at any of them, "She smells…wonderful. I didn't know there was such a-"

"Scent such as that?" Carlisle guessed with a lifted eyebrow

Edward merely nodded and silence descended upon them.

"Well," Esme said sighing, "It looks like we're leaving"

No one said anything for a few more moments, as if mourning their loss of their home, the lives they've created for themselves.

"It was fun…" Alice said absently, "While it lasted…"

Edward couldn't help but to feel responsible, it was obvious they loved this place, it was their first real home, and it was his fault they were leaving. Or they could stay and he would end up killing her, the idea didn't really turn his stomach, it actually made his mouth water. No. He shook his head, he couldn't think about killing someone, he couldn't do that. Their only choice was to leave.

"This weekend," Carlisle said suddenly, "We'll leave this weekend. That'll give us enough time to tie up school and work. Edward, you'll leave tonight to go hunting and come back Friday afternoon to pack"

Everyone nodded lightly, each secretly thankful someone was taking charge of the situation that seemed too sad to deal with.

"But," Alice suddenly spoke up, making everyone look up at her. She paused, still looking at the floor, "I don't want to move" There it was. Out in the open.

Esme looked sternly at Alice, "None of us do, but Edward-"

"Can leave on his own," Edward finished interrupting her

"No!" All three said in unison

"Never," Carlisle said shaking his head, "We stick together"

"Come on," Edward shrugged turning away from them, "We knew it would happen one day… doesn't every kid fly the coop eventually?" he joked icily

"No," Alice said firmly, "They don't. And I won't let you. If you leave I'm going with you"

"No your not," Edward said glaring at her

"Yes I am," she glared back

"Me too," Esme said putting a hand on her son's shoulder

"Me three," Carlisle said putting his hand on his wives

"Face it, Edward," Alice smiled, "You're stuck with us…whether you like it or not". Edward didn't smile back and instead just pulled out from under them and walked up to his room.

The next day Alice tapped her pencil in thought. Edward had left the night before to go hunting and right now Carlisle and Esme were speaking to the Guidance Department about transferring to Alaska. No one yet knew they were leaving but it was only a matter of time. She sighed at the mere thought of it.

"Problem?" a voice broke her out of her thinking and she looked up to see Jasper, Bella's brother, smiling lightly at her

"No," she answered simply and looked back down at the same worksheet she had been looking absently at for the last half hour.

"Sure?" he asked. He sounded genuinely concerned and for some reason his voice made her want to spill her entire story out to him, vampire part and all.

For a moment she didn't respond, truly debating telling him, finally she just nodded. "Yeah…sure"

"Ok," he went back to looking at his paper for a few moments before turning back to her, "You know if you every need to talk-" his words were drowned out because at that moment he reached out to her, touching her softly on the skin. Instantly, the world began to swim out of focus.

She saw his childhood- a beautiful brown haired brown-eyed little boy with chubby cheeks. She felt his pain when he found out he was only a half sibling of his sisters and the shame he held for being the child of such adultery. She felt a wave of sympathy for him and then she was transitioning to a few years later- moving to Forks and telling everyone that he was a twin. Him being secretly scared of all the new people but playing it cool on the outside… And then she saw his future, and it made her want to vomit.

The whole scene was over in a simple second and he hadn't even noticed her seeing his whole life. He didn't even notice when she opened her eyes and half glared half stared at him, how could she ever… The thoughts trailed away from her and she felt repulsed yet excited at the same time. In her vision, she had seen her and him together in Forks…happy. Edward was there too…he was grinning about something and they were cutting a wedding cake with Esme and Carlisle at their sides.

But it felt so…wrong. Never had she seen that far into the future in such accuracy. Whenever someone typically touched her she merely saw his or her life up to that point, and until yesterday couldn't see anything without touching the person and up until today she couldn't see the future (well, more then a few seconds into it). The new wave of power both scared her and made her want to embrace it.

"Alice…?" Jasper's voice brought her back into the world and she stared up at him.

This was the guy she had just seen her life, her future, with.

"Yes…?" She asked a bit dizzily

"I said I'm here," he said before taking his hand away slowly, as if he had just realized he was touching her. The heat from his skin left her knuckles tingling.

"I know," she smiled lightly, "Trust me…I know."
