All because of a Conference
Chapter- 4
Bella Pov.

"Alice we will only be apart for a week. You can go that long without me can't you?" I was at Edward's house saying goodbye to them. They were heading to the airport to go to Europe but at the rate things were going I might be going with them after all. Alice is being difficult; she really wants me to cry doesn't she? As soon as Edward and I had arrived this morning so
I could see them off Alice had grabbed me and was refusing to let go. "No who will I play Bella Barbie with, and who will go shopping with me. It will be no fun."

"Alice I don't like doing either one of those things anyway. Plus Rose and Esme are going with so you can still go shopping and besides the point since when did you need someone to go shopping with you?"

"BBBBEEELLLAAA it's not the same. Rose likes doing her own make-up and Esme is my mom, and I can't exactly make her over because well. Esme also likes doing stuff on her own. "

"Alice it's time to leave." Carlisle said.

"NO" Then Alice hugged me even harder. I could feel her shaking, was she crying? Well almost crying at least. "Dad, can we like kidnap her and then tell Charlie we found her?"

"Alice that's very rude, and do you think how Charlie would feel if his daughter went missing?"

"No. He would feel, scared, depressed, lonely, guilty, etc. I'm sorry." Carlisle nodded and Alice sighed.

"Well I guess I will see you in a week." I gave Alice a hug and went to say goodbye to the rest of the Cullens. Emmett ran up to me and practically crushed me.
"Bella Bear! I am going to miss you. Don't kill yourself by falling in the washer, or stubbing your toe near the beach and drowning ok?"

"I'll try my best Em." I giggled, hugged him again and then went to Carlisle.
"Bye Bella. We will see you in a week exactly. Ok. Again please don't pay any trips to the ER. I won't be there to help." Then he chuckled.

I just smiled. What's up with this family and my accident proneness? Jesus. Think I can spend one week without entering the ER. I then ran up to Esme and hugged her tight.

"Sweetheart. Behave, and have fun ok. I'm going to miss you a lot." I nodded into her shoulder, then let go. She smiled at me softly, and then went to stand next to Carlisle. I turned to the rest of the Cullens. I stared at Rosalie and gave her a nod. She nodded in response and a small smile on her lips. At least she didn't glare. I then looked at the 2 remaining people. Jasper and Edward; both looking at me intently. I had to look away from Edward for a second because it looked as if Jasper wanted to say something.
I walked up to him, leaving about 2 feet of space between us. He looked at me warily as if saying "don't get to close, you know what can happen" But I know Jasper wouldn't hurt me, so I leaned in and gave him a hug. At first he froze, surprised at my actions, but slowly he put his arms around me and chuckled. "Ah Bella. Such a fan of Danger." At that I had to laugh, then he
patted my back then walked toward Alice. I turned to Edward to say our goodbyes.

"I really don't have to go if you don't want me too?" He asked. I didn't want him to go but I could not let him give up his time with his family.

"Edward we have been through this, you need to spend some time with your family, and I will see you soon." I gave him a kiss and hug and watch him head to the car as well. I was trying to keep it together. I think everyone could tell that I was about to burst into tears but I did my best to not let them show. I watched them finish their checks and get ready to pull out. I decided that it was time that I left too. I had another round of goodbyes and headed home to finish packing. This was going to be a long week. A VERY long, excruciating week. God can't Edward just come back. This week better end soon….

A/N Hey guys sorry it's been so long, Finals then Christmas, and then I got into a bad car accident a few days ago. The good news is that I have been told to stay in bed for a while cause of my injuries so now I can write more. For those of you who read Hospitalized I am sending a chapter to be proofed by my beta as soon as I am done uploading this so it should be up soon. And I am working on the rest of my stories after that. I plan to be back on my scheduled this week or the next. Well review please.
