DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT~
No one seemed to notice my presence. No one seemed to hear the shattering of class on the floor. No one seemed to be able to relax from their positions in the tense atmosphere. There were two vampires in the room, two werewolves and one human. Jacob and myself, Bella, Carlisle and-
Edward came back.
But why?
He was crouched into a defensive position in front of Bella-not exactly how I imagined our reunion to be, who lay fast asleep, oblivious to all that was happening. He was glaring full-on at Jacob; if looks could kill, Jacob would have perished there and then. Jacob on the other hand, was looking at him defiantly, though a trace of fear tinted his whole being-the way his muscles contracted and tensed, the way a bead of cold sweat trickled down his cheek.
"Turn around and go home." Edward snarled softly, afraid to wake Bella up, probably. But that did not lesson the menace in the tone of his voice. "Now."
"Hah! So you can be alone with Bella and force her to remember you? Fat chance." The words came out less vicious than Jacob meant them to-his voice cracked at the end. He obviously, terrifyingly afraid but for the girl he loved, it was apparent he'd risk anything.
"Please, Jacob." Edward's eyes seem to soften just one bit. "Give me a chance. 3 months, that's all. And if she still can't remember, I'll go away and never return."
His gaze flickered to Carlisle whose eyes' had tightened.
He smiled painfully. "But I'll miss my family of course, but I will come to visit. When I do, I'll make sure Bella never sees me. You can take her any damned place you want to when I come. But please, just keep her safe."
It was easy to see that just talking about letting go of Bella pained him immensely.
"3 months? How can I be sure that you'll keep your word leech? The other time when you left Bella," Edward winced. "You promised her that you'd never come back, and look what happened."
A small growl was building in Edward's chest. Jacob was clearly getting on Edward's nerves but he controlled it well.
"I didn't come back. She brought me back, remember, the Volturi?"
That seemed to silence Jacob for a while. "So, 3 months huh?"
Edward nodded. "You have my word. But within these 3 months you are not allowed to be near Bella, she's not suppose to even see you. If you interfere…the deal's off."
Jacob contemplated that for a while. "I accept. But…if you do not keep your side of the bargain, I'll attack you. That means my brothers will join in and that will mean a huge fight. Understand?" And with that, he left the room.
I strode over to Edward and shook his hand tightly, "Good luck." And then I went to catch up with Jacob, knowing very well that he would need it.
