A/N:

Chapter four! It's a very intense chapter and I wanted to get it up before I changed my mind about it.

Before I forget, chapter four is dedicated to Team Alice-Bella! She was my only reviewer last chapter... So sad.

So the REST of you can thank HER for the next chapter being up the same DAY as the LAST ONE!!!

Sorry... fight scenes make me angry.

Enjoy!

FLASHBACK

--After about an hour, I heard footsteps behind me. I recognized the sound of his posture and the weight of him in his footsteps, but decided I must be wrong. I turned to see who it was and was surprised to see it was, in fact, who I'd thought.

"Edward?"--


APOV

"Why are you here?" He snapped fiercely. "How could this possibly be helping, Alice? You of all people, I expected to understand." His fist clenched and unclenched nervously. I tried my best to keep calm. This was just Edward. He was angry. He gets like this a lot.

"She's a wreck, Edward. You leaving has caused her nothing but pain." He threw his head to the side painfully, like I'd just smacked him.

"You stupid pixie." He mockingly yelled, spitting venom at me with the 'p'.

"Shush, you! You'll wake her up!" He took a step forward and stared down at me.

"Do not tell me what to do. This is nonsense. Everything would have gone just how I'd planned if you'd just left it alone." He snarled. I grew angry.

"You're right! This is nonsense! What was your plan, anyway? Leave and let her kill herself?" He flinched but I continued raging. "It won't be much time while she's alone until she does it. I had her laughing the other day, Edward. Laughing. When we found her, she fainted and cried. Is that what you wanted? To cause her harm?" His hand flew from his side and pushed up against my neck, holding me to the tree. I gasped for the air to speak but could find none.

"Let her go, Edward!" I heard Jasper scream. I struggled against his hand, trying to get leverage to push him off of me. I didn't want this to happen. We couldn't fight. It would hurt us all too much. I blinked and tried to look to Jasper, to let him know I was alright. Still I struggled against Edward's hand and the tree behind me. Finally the tread on my shoe caught the bark and I pushed my knee forward, kicking Edward in the stomach.

I jumped up into the tree and stayed there until Edward was back on his feet. He crouched to the ground, getting ready to jump at me but Jasper caught him from behind and held him with his arms behind his back. I jumped silently from the tree and sauntered to him. He struggled at Jasper and I shoved my hand up against his neck, just as he'd held me before.

"Left it alone? Is that all she is to you anymore, is it? I'm glad you left her. She would have gotten hurt one way or another. He flinched greatly and Jasper fell to the ground. My eyes widened and I was unready for Edward's foot to meet my neck. I flew back against the tree and slouched to the side a bit, worn out. All of our heads snapped up when we heard a gasp. I looked up to the edge of the woods, where an opening was, and where Bella stood, eyes wide, hands at her mouth.


A/N:

If you're at all like me right now, you're like 'Oh, my, god'

Yeah. I wrote that shit up there. Crazy.

Can't wait to see what's next? Good! Review!
