"Carlisle, I know this is not the best time but we have to talk about something very serious concerning your sons but I don't think Rose and Alice will able to" I wiped the tears off. "Emmett and Jasper can you guys please take my sisters home?" they nodded and Jasper grabbed Alice and Emmett grabbed Rose. They didn't even protest when Jasper and Emmett grabbed them.

"What is it you want to talk about?" Carlisle looked worried. Now it was time to let him in on what was going on with him sons. The white envelopes were in my hands and I wonder what was inside. Did Billy know about Charlie's sickness? Questions kept wondering into my head as I explained things to Carlisle.

Bella's POV:

I sighed and began. "Carlisle, I know what I'm going to tell is going to scare you but you have to understand that my sisters and I are the best at what we do."

"Bella just say whatever it is." Carlisle said.

"Okay. Just know this isn't easy to say. As you know your sons were living in Chicago. They were working for the Voultri. The Voultri are very powerful and used to make guns the CIA used to use. I'm an agent and so are my sisters. We work for the CIA undercover and there are only seven agents that the Voultri don't know about. Three of those agents are my sisters and I. The rest are in other missions our boss has assigned them to. The Voultri are a mafia but at the time when the CIA bought their guns from them, they didn't know. After a while the CIA had witnesses claiming the Voultri have killed people but the evidence they had was useless. At first the CIA didn't know what to think because the trusted them. It was hard for CIA. On top of all that the Voultri became a newspaper and magazine company. They have their own newspaper and magazine: Voultri Times and V-Fashion News. I have to admit they did a pretty good job." I paused for a second and then continued. "Your sons worked on finding stories for their newspaper." I turned to Edward and gave him a nod that told him to continue.

"So then one day during lunch time Emmett hadn't finished writing his story so Jasper and I helped him. We were the only ones in the building besides the security guard who was at the entrance door. Emmett asked me to get him the folder of information he had gathered on the story he was writing. When I got the folder Jasper took the papers out and was looking through it and found papers which I can't say what was written on it. Emmett was the one who choose to go straight to the police and now you have us here." Edward was staring at the wall behind Carlisle. Silence took over for five minutes.

"I don't know what to say… how are three girls going to protect three guys?"

Edward and I laughed and Carlisle gave us a confused look. "I am the best agent in the world and so are Alice and Rose. This mission is nothing compared to others I have had to do. This mission I would say is easy. And I have only gotten shot once." I told Carlisle about the marriage and last names and I told about a couple of missions so he wouldn't worry much about his sons' safety.

"Oh" Carlisle sighed. "I'm sorry I'm just in shocked. I don't know what to do or say."

"I understand Carlisle. This is a lot to take in." I looked at the time and it had already been an hour and a half. "We have to get going. It was nice to meet you Carlisle." I shook his hand and then Edward said his goodbye and we left.

I drove us back to the house in silence. Before I could open the door I heard my sisters sobbing. I feel like breaking down but one of us three had to be strong. I took a deep breath and turned the knob. It broke my heart seeing my sisters in the state they were. Jasper and Emmett were there trying to calm them down. I have to remember to thank them later. "Alice, Rose, we have to talk. I'll meet you in the office in five." With that I walked up to the office to wait for them.

I sat behind the desk waiting for them to come in and then I heard the door open and close. I turned around to see them there. "Carlisle gave me three envelopes that Charlie told him to give to us. They each have our names." I handed them the envelopes. They examined the envelopes carefully. They didn't say a word and just got up and ran out of the room. I took the envelope and tore it open. T was a letter from Charlie.

My Dear Clumsy Bells,

I know you are trying to hold strong for your sisters and I admire you for that. I know how much you have always wanted to be an author and I know someday you will be the best. I hope one day you get married and have a beautiful family. Oh and when you do get married tell your husband I will hunt him down if he hurts you! And don't roll your eyes missy! You have been through a lot all from your mother's death to breakups and giving me heart attacks. And no I'm not exaggerating! I know you must be mad, hurt, and upset that I didn't tell you I was sick but you have to understand, Bella, it's not what parents want their children to see or to suffer about. I didn't want to worry you girls. I know you would have done the same if you were in my place. (You know I'm not good with words.) I will be with your mother watching over you girls. I love you my clumsy daughter and I will forever.

Love you forever,

Charlie Swan

Tears covered my face as I sat on the floor in the office leaning against the wall. I cried in silence for about half an hour then wiped the tears with my hand. I called Billy again and he told me the funeral was two days ago. He told me he had tried to call us but no one picked up. That was because we were finishing a mission which Alice accidently shot the tire of our car.

One week later

When I woke up Edward wasn't in the room. My sisters were still moping around with Emmett and Jasper following them around. I think I'm going to lose it if I see them like that. Got up showered, changed, and went downstairs. I saw no was in the living room so I went to the kitchen. Okay enough was enough.

"I know this is hard and it hurts me lots too but we are in a mission. You girls have to stop moping around. Please, I don't like to see you girls like that it hurts me so much." I could feel the tears in my eyes forming.

"It hurts! Unlike you Alice and I show our feeling and emotions!" Rose snapped at me.

"How do you think I feel! Remember what happened last time I showed my feelings and emotions while we were in a mission? It scares me Rose and I don't want anything similar to happen." I whispered the last sentence. I turned around and ran from there. I couldn't take it anymore so I broke down completely. I could hear a velvet voice calling my name and I knew who it was. Edward.

I ran through the woods to the meadow. Once I got to the meadow I fell on the floor and cried. I couldn't let it happen again. I couldn't kill someone innocent again for being hurt and upset. "Bella are you okay? What's wrong?" Edward sat down next to me.

"I can't let it happen again." I wiped the tears off my eyes.

"Bella its perfectly normal to cry. Your father died and you should be upset. If you want to talk about anything I'm here. I'll listen." He sat closer to me and put his arm around me pulling me closer to him. I had my head on his chest.

"This has happened before. It happened about two years ago. I can't let my feeling and emotions get in the way of my missions."

"What are you talking about, Bella?"

"I was engaged and I was in a mission. I never told him about what I really did. Everyone thinks I work for a publishing company, Alice as a wedding planner, and Rosalie as a secretary at where I supposedly work at."

"What was his name?"

"His name was Taylor Crowley. He went off to war and was shot and died instantly. I got the news about five minutes before we had to go and finish the mission. Did you hear about the Denali?"

"Yeah, I did. They were three sisters who were into drugs and exporting illegal goods."

"Yes. I was so upset like Rose and Alice are. I had a best friend, her name was Jessica. She was in the mission with us. The Denali found out we work for the CIA and they had a plan of killing us but we had already planned out what to do if they found out. When it was up to the three sisters and us four, it was like a mini war. Out of nowhere I felt like crying remembering what had just happened to Taylor. I was hurt and broken. As much as I tried to wipe the tears off my eyes my vision was still blurry. I thought the one across from me was one of the sisters but it was Jessica. I shot her and she died as soon as the bullet hit her." By now I was drowning in tears sobbing. Edward held me tight. I will never forgive myself for that.

"Shh, Bella. It happened two years ago. I bet Jessica forgave you for it in where ever she is. It was not your fault. You had just received horrible news. Don't blame yourself."

"It was my fault that I couldn't control myself from crying and I killed her."

Edward took my face in his hands and said, "Listen to me Bella. It. Was. Not. Your. Fault."

"Edward?"

"Yes?"

"Thank you. It really helped talking to you." I smiled at him and he smiled back. Our eyes were locked into each other. Our faces were very close that his breathing was tickling my face. We were so close to kissing when my phone rang.

Author's Note: Who could be calling Bella and interrupting her first kiss with Edward? Sorry that I didn't update sooner I was busy hanging out with family. I want to thank all who have reviewed! I want to thank live(dot)and(dot)breath(dot)books for your comments that helped me write this chapter! xD
