CHAPTER FOUR

"When you drive somewhere and return back home and wonder… why the hell you left?"

RosaliePOV

Emmett, Alice and Edward returned home just after we finished setting up our old home in forks, I welcomed Emmett with a peck on the cheek and we were informed of the events we missed. How dare that scum bag Mike Newton dare even go near Bella, my sister. Edward glanced at me approvingly. Yes, even though I was never fond of Bella it wasn't because she was a bad person or anything, she just should appreciate her humanity. As well I will never fully understand how Edward can reject so many females like Tanya, Sophie, Jessica and … me? And then Bella comes along and he looks at her like she is freaking Santa Claus. I never had feelings for Edward other than Brotherly love, its just weird that's all. However after I got over Bella and how Edward praises her I recently realised, I do indeed share a bond with her and would protect as my sister. She made Edward happy, and besides the fact it was kind of weird seeing Edward drunk with happiness it was still better for him. He has been roaming this earth alone for to long. Geez why does he have to be so picky and now he has been an absolute dick and left her and returned. I guess I understand why he left and all but was so wrong with Bella being a Vampire any way?

"Alright everyone, we need to discuss a few things like my work, school, money and most importantly Bella." Carlisle spoke with leadership and Esme stared at him admirably.

"Ahh Bella how I can't wait to make her blush again when I see her at school!"

"Emmett!" We all but Esme screamed.

"We can't just waltz back into her life Emmett" Alice responded to his confused expression. He let out a childish huff and we continued our conversation.

"No. No Alice, absolutely not!" Edward argued.

"But Edward…" Alice groaned.

"No!" Edward growled

"Yes!" Alice pleaded

"No" Edward rebutted

"Yes" Alice squealed

Oh no not another one of these private conversations between Alice and Edward. They drove the rest of us crazy. Alice would think something or have a vision and only Edward would see it and they would not even bother to full the rest of us in.

"Please explain before things get messy" I bellowed at Alice.

"Edward won't let me be the first to go talk to Bella." Alice clearly stated.

"There is no way Alice!" He retorted rudely and very unlike Edward.

"I am her best friend Edward" Alice refused to give up. This could get ugly. When ever things were the slightest bit involved with Bella Edward would be all over protective and let nothing stop him but when Alice wanted something her determination was unbeatable. This was evenly matched.

"Children please obtain your selves!" Esme chanted. Edward of coarse had dear respect for our mother and calmly stated that Alice will not be the first to see Bella. His jaw tightened as Carlisle spoke "Actually, I am sorry to admit this Edward but it would be smarter if Alice spoke to Bella first, under precaution of course." Edward let out a loud grunt and glared irritably at Alice. No one usually argued with Carlisle and Edward obviously saw the reasoning in our dads mind. She returned a smile and began where we left off "Bella will need time to adapt and my visions are still changing frequently but now settling that we are coming to a decision. She will be confused so far but otherwise she is ignoring us" I spotted Edward flinch "talking to few of us and all sorts. I promise to keep you updated" Alice stated. Carlisle nodded mean while Edward remained still, motionless and deep in thought.

Esme stared intently towards Edward; she cared for him so much. "Alice you should plan to see Bella tomorrow morning, the sooner we see Bella again the sooner we can reunite with her" Esme spoke softly but we could see she just wanted Edward happy again and the family happy again. What can I say? She was a loving mother.

AlicePOV

Morning came slowly, or at least it did for me. I had been going over things I would discuss with Bella with the family for hours and to top it off many conversations after that with Mr cranky-because-I-didn't-get-my-way-Edward! He was such a nag sometimes. I had to admit I have been bobbing up and down for quite some time now and now even Jasper could not calm me down. I was going to see my best friend Bella again. I was ecstatic!

I was wearing knee high black heeled boots giving me height with tight matching black jeans. I had a tight grey thermal top with a gorgeous blood red jacket and matching jewellery. My hair was its same spiky self and I added some eye make up.

Just as I grabbed the door handle to leave when I over-heard piano music playing quietly in the background. It was Edward playing Bella's lullaby. I could tell Esme would be delighted it been months since he has played. I smiled thoughtfully and left. I parked my car in the drive way to see that battered truck which I even admit holds some personality but Charlies car wasn't there so he had already obviously left to work. I was so excited I ran top speed straight to her door and knocked forgetting about neighbours. Wow I could smell her from here, is it possible she smelt more heavenly than before. It was that second she opened the door.

Her face showed a mixture of shock, worry, fear but behind all that I saw joy. "Well that's not usually how you would greet your best friend" I beamed at her and before I could control it she was in my arms. "Bella, Bella, Bella! I missed you so much" I ranted on in excitement. Suddenly she started to plead "Alice…" she murmured. What? What the problem?

"Cant … breath!" She gasped. Oh. My hug was a little um…tight. I immediately loosened and stepped aside. "Sorry Bella you just have no idea" She hesitantly grabbed my hand and pulled me to the couch. We sat down and she looked deeply into my eyes. Wow. Is it me or did she look more stunning than ever before. Besides that depression smothered all over face I thought she looked beautiful. Edward would be impressed…very impressed.

"Alice, why are you here?" She looked confused. "Aren't you happy to see me?" I questioned sadly. Why was she so sad? "Alice I am trying so hard to remain normal. I thought I loved you and you all loved me but you don't and I need to recover. Seeing you brings back memories of your family, of him I need to stay normal. For Charlie, and when you leave…-"

"Bella!" I immediately yelled. How dare she think we don't love her? What exactly did Edward tell her? "Bella I love you to bits, the whole damn family has been lost without you. I am going crazy without you in my life. You're my best friend" At that Bella practically leaped in my arms and cried. "Oh Alice…I thought you didn't want me part of your life anymore. I think about you everyday!" Bella moped. I was happy she admitted she did miss me; she was so special to me. Like a sister. I could see in her eyes she truly did miss me. She gave up on whatever made her so irrational before and came to senses for me.

However I had to get down to business. I had to tell her the rest of us were here…in forks. And also about Edward, Esme made me promise to work my hardest to bring Bella and Edward together again. I would keep that promise.

"Is he here?" She asked quietly playing with a lock of hair pretending not to care. "Bella…please give him a chance" Her eyes widened "Give him a chance?" She questioned harshly. She looked paralysed. What the heck?

"He loves you Bella…" I answered hoping to remind her of that fact.

"What?!?!" She yelled full of rage. I wasn't quick enough to say something.

"After he painfully told he didn't want me, didn't care for me…didn't love me!" She shrieked with such emotion I felt hurt. My previous question was answered; Edward told her he didn't love her. This would be harder than I thought. She continued "I was just a simple distraction. I was nothing Alice nothing! Nothing!" I pulled her to me. We were definitely having a sleep over tonight.

"Please don't leave me" She sulked.

"Don't worry Bella we are so having a sleep over tonight, I am here, we all are and we are not leaving…" I replied.

"Thank you" She whispered into my shoulder.

"What are best friends for?" I smiled as she sat up. We both giggled together and went to her bedroom to set up my bed. As she was pulling out a blanket I accessed her outfit. Impressive, for Bella of course. Bella was wearing tight skinny black jeans like mine but worse quality and not designer either. Some things never change. She was wearing no shoes but a long blue singlet which complimented her body well with a unbuttoned black cardigan and grey scarf. She noticed me checking out her clothes.

"Any improvements on my fashion sense since last time I saw you?" She asked curiously. I think I may have even seen slight smugness in her face.

"Definitely, not 100% but we are getting there." I laughed and she chimed in. She explained Charlie was gone for the week on a police investigation and I knew it was time to get into things. I had to keep my promise to Esme.

Tonight will be interesting...
