PAUL P.O.V

It had been a whole week since the situation of Leah being left alone had happened. Trust me, she hadn't been anywhere alone. Not the bathroom, the store, the baby's room and not even the shower. Nowhere at all! But it was kind of bugging me that there was always one wolf and one Cullen at a time when we were with her. Even if I wanted it to be just us, there was still a vampire around and nobody thought that I could take on those vampires alone. But what was really getting under my skin was the fact that and Jacob and Leah had been growing really close to each other since everything had happened. I understand he got there first and yada yada yaa but its like he lives with us now, and so does Nessie.

But its like the roles have been reversed. Nessie is always with me, and Jake is always with Leah and I can never get to them because Nessie is a hand-full by herself. One day I had gotten tired of it and figured that I'd ask a pack member what they thought before I flipped out.

"Hey Embry, hold on a sec. Let me talk to you before you leave." I yelled at Embry one night when he was leaving his patrol of Leah.

"Hey what's up Paul? Long time, no talk." He said causally. I knew that Embry would tell me the truth, and if he didn't it was really easy to tell whenever he lied. Now Quil on the other hand...

" So Embry, what do you think of Leah and Jacob?" I asked as casually as I could. Apparently it worked because he started rambling about how they make a great partnership and all this other bullshit that really wasn't helping me think any differently.

"Okay, Okay. Stop already, that's not helping me." I finally told him.

"Whoa... do you think that they're…? Eww! No way Paul, I highly doubt that they would do anything like that together." Embry told me, still looking disgusted by the thought.

"But why are they so close? I mean, they obviously share something and I just can't ignore it. I don't know what it is but... its deep." I told him, sounding a little beat.

"Well…" Embry started but before he could, Edward came over and interrupted him.

"You know, I had kind of thought the same thing after he imprinted on Nessie. I had to make sure he was true to her. So I did a little snooping and sometimes I even followed them just close enough so I could read both of their minds. I'm ashamed that I had to stoop so low but I had to! For my daughter! You understand right?" He asked me.

"Yeah I do, but what did you find?" I was a little scared to hear what he had to say. My love for Leah has gone to such depths that I didn't know existed until we put our blood together and made that baby.

"No, they do not 'fool around' if that's what you want to know. But they do have a connection. Probably just as deep as your connection to her, but on a different level. See their connection is all about the Beta and Alpha. Before you ask, I know that Sam and Jared's connection isn't all that strong but I have a couple of theories about that. See, Sam isn't even supposed to be alpha in the first place so of course they aren't going to be that strong, but I also talked to Billy Black about it. I mean, I really wanted to know why their connection to each other is so deep. In a perfect world, meaning that vampires don't exist, or our coven didn't come back. Leah and Jacob were meant to be the Alpha pair. But we did come back, and Nessie was born and Jake imprinted on her so their connection runs deep but they are both promised to someone else and they don't even know that destiny had decided for them. They have no romantic feelings whatsoever towards each other so you don't have to worry about any of that." Edward told me like he believed that he had accomplished a lot.

In reality he did. He cleared my mind on their relationship, but he also put a new thought in the back of my mind. I knew that they wouldn't do anything and they don't think of each other in that way... but what if? What if Renesmee unexpectedly died? What happens then? Does their destiny live on? Would they travel back to the road that they were meant to be on? What If Nessie doesn't die but destiny decides no, that they need to be together?

Too much is on my mind for me to go back to Leah right now. She is with Rose and Seth so I know she will be fine.

I take a walk through the woods and come across Alice, who was just sitting on a log and staring out into a pit of nothing.

"Alice?" I asked her in a hushed tone.

She quickly looked my way and then looked back at the apparent pit of nothing in the sky and patted the seat next to her.

"Alice what are you doing?" I asked.

"I was just searching through the future and trying to find answers about all of this."

"So what did you find?" I asked her. She didn't answer so I looked over at her. She had a glazed look over her face and I hoped that, that meant she is having a vision because if she wasn't then the expression that she wore was plain creepy.

She jumped up suddenly and looked at me.

"What Alice?" I asked, standing up also.

"They were here." She said to me. I looked at her, feeling confused and she rolled her eyes. "Don't you wonder about how these vampires knew about the wolves and about Nessie being a hybrid, or how they even knew where to find Leah and to place her at? When is the only two times that you wolves have faced vampires other than us? Okay now out of those two, which time did any of those vampires walk away freely?" She looked at me, excitement in her eyes

"So you're saying that the Volturi is behind this again?" I asked her. Shit! When are those damn things going to leave us the hell alone?

"No, no, no. Remember how they had brought some witnesses with them? Out of my vision I thought that a few of them looked familiar. It was them! That's how they know!" Alice said excitedly. I looked at her confusedly. I got what she was saying and was glad that we knew who we were dealing with but why was she so happy?

"And for the first time, I've been able to look back at the past. That's why I'm so happy because I wasn't going to remember where I saw those faces."

EDWARD P.O.V

"No. See, what I'm trying to say is that when Lincoln was president, stuff like this didn't happen. The world was at peace and there weren't any nuclear things destroying the planet's beauty." I tried to say as passionately as I could.

"So now you're a Go Green activist?" Seth asked me slyly.

"All I'm saying is that we don't need air to live. You all do. So why pollute the air with all these nuclear bombs and gas for cars? Did you know that bicycles don't pollute the air?" Don't ask me how we got on that subject but somehow we were all in a deep discussion about the planet.

"Okay, so what you're saying is that your food has to breathe and you're mad because they're killing themselves?" Jacob asked me while he eat a sandwich

Before I could answer, Alice and Paul come running towards us from the trees. Everybody got tense just in case they found something important out. I read their minds and found out what had them running. I looked at Alice, feeling confused.

"When could you start suddenly seeing the past?" I asked her, and everyone looked at Alice and I. Then they all went back to where they were before they ran up to us.
