Chapter 4:
By the third day I was up and thirsty. Jasper taught me how to hunt and spent two weeks with me. After my fourth hunt, I had quenched my thirst. It was now time for questions. "So Jasper, you never told me why did you come back to Forks?" He looked up and smiled "Forks is one of my favorite towns I have ever visited. I get to go out not afraid of being exposed and live a normal life, as normal as it can get for a vampire." Once again we became silent, but this time, he broke the silence "Bella, what are you trying to ask? You have been nervous all day long". "How was he?" "Well he stopped playing the piano and would go out of his room when he needed to hunt." He said with a tone of sadness. "Funny he always though he was a monster. It turns out it was me who all that time" I laughed humorlessly. "He must hate me now. Over and over I have been hurting and he would always be forgiving" I sobbed tearlessly. After I calmed down, Jasper asked me where I will be living. "Actually I have no clue" I said sheepishly. "Well why don't you come and stay with us. We are at the Denali's right now." I shook my head "thanks Jasper, but the last thing he needs is seeing me again. I think I am going to stay here for a while. I need to set my priorities and to think for a while." "Of course, I understand Bella. But if it is about Edward he is not living with us at the moment." "After you left, Rosalie and Edward's bond became stronger. Emmet and her travelled to Canada with him, to help him umm get over you." he said the last part in a low voice but I heard it just fine. "Of course." " You should probably head back to Alice; I bet she misses you already.""Actually Alice is on her way now with Esme and Carlisle." He said. "Huh? Why?" "She saw that I was going to change you and there was no way she could have prevented it." "Oh" was all I could say. It was not like I was not happy or anything just I was surprised. "Okay I get Alice is coming to see me. What about the rest?" "Bella they miss you, you are family to us. Why are you so guilty?"He asked worried. "I let everybody down. They all should hate me. I was the reason you all split apart." I did not realize that they have arrived by now. Esme ran to me and hugged me tightly. "Oh Bella honey, I never hated you, none of us did. I already consider you a daughter. Don't feel bad. You chose what you thought was right.", and with that I sobbed even harder. Esme kept cooing me and calming me down, with a little help from Jasper of course. "Thank you Esme I really appreciate it." She smiled and I smiled back to her.
Alice came running to me and was holding me for dear life. "Bellllllaaaaa I missed you so much." She sobbed quietly in my arms while I hugged her tight. I really did miss her. Carlisle was next, after he greeted me, he asked me about my transformation. "Actually I did not feel anything. I was numb, I did not realize that it began until Jasper was apologizing" I smiled to Jasper to let him know it was okay. We all became quiet suddenly and then Alice chirped in "So Bella I have foreseen that you are going to live in the meadow" I nodded before she completed. "Esme has the perfect house for you and we are going to help building It." she said while bouncing up and down like a five-year old; Jasper tried to calm her down but he failed miserably. "Thank you Esme, but I really do not want to cause you any unnecessary trouble" "Oh Bella trust me there is no trouble at all." she said with a warm smile. "Carlisle and I are going to purchase the things we need, while you catch up with Alice" and with that they ran off. Alice being Alice started talking immediately. She told me that they were living with the Denali's now and in six months will join Edward, Rosalie, and Emmet in Canada. I tried not to show the pain, but she noticed. "Bella, he will come back. I know it." "How could he Alice? I broke his heart over and over. Oh Alice I am a monster." I said glumly. "Oh Bella have not you learned to not bet against me ever?" "When I say he is coming back he will come back" "Have some faith in yourself and me. You are meant for each other; you are just too stubborn to see properly" she said with a smile. I suddenly realized that Jasper was missing. "Alice, where is Jasper?" "I don't know." She said innocently, too innocently. I looked at her not convinced. "Okay fine he is at the Denali's." I urged her to continue, "Packing the clothes I bought for you." She said quickly, but I heard her. "Alice!!" "Oh come on Bella you will be living for a long time away from civilization, till you master your self control. You cannot live with a pair of shinny jeans and shirt." Okay I admit she got me there. "Okay Alice I see your point." I said grudgingly. "Yes I knew you would finally see the light." she said happily.
Alice suddenly became quiet. I knew this look, "Alice. Alice what is wrong?!" I started to panic, but she remained quiet and pronounced" Trouble". I was insistently in a crouch ready to attack, when I smelled a werewolf. As it approached, I realized it was Leah. I dropped my crouch, "Leah, calm down. It is me Bella" I said in my new soprano voice. She looked a bit confused but then realized that it was me. Leah calmed down and phased back. "Bella what on earth happened to you?!" her eyes shifted from me to Alice in less than a second "You" she hissed. "No Leah. It was not Alice; I was walking in the forest when I suddenly tripped. The next thing I know is that I am being burned alive." I lied to Leah. I had to. I did not want to cause the Cullens any unnecessary trouble. "What did it look like?" "I cannot remember. I could not see." I was amazed by my ability to lie smoothly. Leah's eyes softened a bit. I felt guilty for tricking her, but I had to. Alice sensed that we both needed to talk. "Bella, I will go see if I can give a hand to Esme." And with that she ran off.
