Chapter 7- Jealousy's Death

It was a beautiful morning. The sun felt utterly amazing on my cold face. The night had been cold and Edward's cold body had been wrapped around mine. But everything felt right. We were still in the meadow and Edward was still right beside me.

"Are you cold?" Edward inquired.

"Not really." I was still kind of groggy. I sat up and stretched my arms out. Sleeping on the ground had its negatives I had to admit. "Hmm…How are you?"

"Me? I am wonderful. And how are you, my love?"

"Amazing." I stretched up to meet his lips. "What are we doing today?"

"I have no…" He began but was interrupted by a phone call. "Great… Just what I needed. Alice…rrg…!" He moved to put the phone away.

But that wouldn't have brought much peace to the day. "Edward, just answer it. You know she won't rest until she speaks with you."

"True, true. Fine, Hello…" Their conversation was quick, but I picked up the gist of it. We needed to go back. Jeeze, this really did suck. I can't wait for this to be over. I was getting really sick of having all these obligations. Call me lazy but no teenager wants to be getting married the same year they graduated high school. 

Well I guess most teenagers didn't want to, and I definitely was in the majority category. Maybe today won't be so bad. Maybe if I can just ignore Tanya everything will be okay.

"Are you ready to go back." His velvety voice pulled me back from my thoughts.

"Ya, I guess. But we have no other option, so let's go." He stood up and then helped me up. He quickly folded up the blanket and then pulled me onto his back. I gave him a loving kiss on the back of his neck and he pulled my hand to his mouth and kissed it.

"Mmm… did I ever tell you, you smell so good?"

I laughed. Everyone did say that I smelled very good. Well most of the fantasy creatures in my life did. To me, I thought I smelled perfectly normal. "Yes you have. But I think you smell better." I snuggled my face into his back. This had two purposes. A-I would not get sick as he ran at his amazingly fast "vampire speed" and B-I could inhale his beautiful comforting scent.

When we got to the garage Edward set me down. We continued to walk hand in hand till we met up with Alice."

"Hey Al, what's new?" I asked. Something had to have changed overnight. Who knew with Alice.

"Good morning Bella, Ed… well…something interesting happened last night." Edward tightened instinctively around me. He put his hand on my waist and stepped behind be putting his other hand on my shoulder. I knew what he had seen in Alice's thoughts was not good.

"Alice spit it out… I am not as patient as the rest of you immortals."

"Well, when Tanya realized that Edward wasn't here last night she got upset. And then when she realized that he was with you. Well that just set her off. We tried to calm her down, but she bursted out of the house and ran off. We didn't hear anything for awhile and then we got a call from Sam down at La Push."

Oh great. Just amazingly great. I really had to stop making predictions for the day. I was really bad at it. This news really spoiled my day.

"What happened?" I was instinctively bracing myself for the news.

"Well nothing, thank god. Sam got in under control. See, Tanya got upset and ran out of here. She caught their scent near the border and followed it in. Sam thought it was one of us so he called. When he discovered it wasn't he went up there and found her…turns out that Jacob was already there and it was almost near disaster. But like I said, Sam saved the day. Everything is all right. No hard feelings. Well except Carlisle and Tanya. It's not so pretty up at the house right now."

"Interesting." I said unenthusiastically. Again I braced myself as we started toward the house again.

Before we even made it up the steps we heard the yelling.



"You should have known better. This is not all right, Tanya. We have made treaties so the we can live here. You may have just ruined that. Thank you oh so very much." I had never heard Carlisle talk so ferosicly. He had a major growl accompanying his yelling.

"Let's go around." Edward said. He picked my up in his arms and threw me lightly onto his back and took off. Alice was following right behind us. He climbed the tree with ease and we jumped on to his balcony. He slid the glass door open for Alice and me and then followed us into his room.

We could still hear their yelling. "You should have thought about this before you let some stupid human into your house." Edward flinched. Obviously he didn't like what was happening as much as I did.

A booming voice joined in with Carlisle, "She is not just human. She is a part of this family that you will never be so bug off Tanya." It was Emmett. The usually jolly brother was not so jolly today.

Alice whispered, "If you can imagine, It is actually better now than it was earlier."

Boy, it must have been bad earlier. I walked over to the bed and laid down face up and smooshed a pillow over my face. Why did I have to be the one that always caused the problems?

A strong pair of arms pulled the pillow out of my grasp and then pulled me onto his lap. "Its okay, I will solve everything. It will be fine."

There was a knock on the door. "Edward, can I come in?" I was surprised Esme knew that we were home. She must have heard Edward's whispered comforting to me.

A new round of yelling built up. Alice frowned and came to sit on the other side of me. Esme, sure that she had been granted entrance but didn't hear it walked in. Anybody was welcome, besides Tanya.

She waited for the brief moment when the yelling died down. "Did Alice tell you the circumstances."

Edward and I nodded. "Okay, good. Well I guess there is nothing to do but wait." We all sat on the bed in refuge. Soon we were joined my Jasper.

I curled up next to Edward, wishing to be comforted. Instead he pulled me into his lap. Darn it! Rosalie was the next to join the room. She sat on the bed with a dreary look on her face. Her usual beauty was diminished somewhat. I couldn't quite put my finger on why.

After another couple of minutes, the screaming match was still going strong. Then we heard Emmett's voice, "Tanya, you are the most difficult person alive!" And then we heard his stomps coming up the stairs. He didn't even pause to knock on the door. He walked right in. He was a little surprised to find us all seeking refuge in Edward's room. He joined Rosalie on the bed.



The fight didn't last much longer. Carlisle basically gave Tanya and ultimatum. "The only way you are going to be able to stay here is if you forgive Bella. If you do not forgive Bella, you will need to leave. Immediately."

"Fine, but I am not going to do it willingly." Tanya agreed sulking as she talked.

"Safe?" I asked.

When everyone nodded, I moved to get up but Edward's strong hands held me firmly. "Let everyone else test the water before we go down." I silently agreed.

Slowly everyone left but Alice. "Well nothing like a morning fight to break up the routine!"

Alice rolled her eyes. "Nothing is routine with Tanya. Especially lately, but I think that is just because she is jealous."

It was hard that a beautiful vampire could be jealous of me. The normal human. I wasn't even a pretty human, but whatever.

Alice left soon after that. Then Edward turned to me and said, "Tanya will expect you to put up a fight for me, but don't. You will never need to put up a fight for me. I am yours and will forever be yours. Do not worry my love. You do not need to worry about a thing." I sighed in agreement and kissed his shoulder.

After about thirty minutes of sitting in silence. He softly picked me up and carried me downstairs.

Tanya had left. I threw a quick party in my imagination. But everyone else from her coven was still here. Drat… she didn't go back to Alaska. She was still here… just not here, here. Well, I guess I take it as it comes.

As we came downstairs, I could hear Alice singing. Edward tightened next to me, but I didn't know why. Maybe he heard Alice's thoughts, because when we walked into the room he said, "Alice, quit blocking your thoughts. I already heard more than I wanted and I am already mad."

"Wait, WHAT? Edward? Where did this come from." I was deeply confused.

"Don't worry, Bella, you will find out tomorrow. But when you do hear to are going to absolutely love…"

"ALICE…don't torture her. She is only human!!" Edward said impatiently.

"Oh come on, why can't I know now?" I asked, interested.

"Because we need to make a plan."

"A plan for what?"

"A plan for Tanya." Alice replied grimly.

We talked about a lot of options but finally decided. When Tanya came back tonight, Edward and I would watch a movie in the den. If Tanya said anything, Alice would refute her point. If things got dirty, Jasper and Emmett would get involved. But we were hoping that things wouldn't come to that. If anything, all we wanted was to show Tanya is that we are changing nothing for her. It's not like she deserves it.

I changed into my comfy sweats and a t-shirt. Edward changed into flannel pajamas and a t-shirt, too. We had our comfy clothes on and we went downstairs to get comfy. We laid out blankets and pillows to lie on in front of the T.V. Alice, Jasper, and Emmett sat on the couch behind us. We were watching Eragon when we heard a shrill voice.

"Oh. My. Gosh. That is soooo hilarious Jeff. Edward you have to listen to Jeff's joke."

Edward turned politely to look at Tanya and then said, "Hello Jeff, I'm Edward and this is my fiancée Bella."

"Hi, I'm Jeff, Tanya's boyfriend." My eyes about popped out of my head when I heard that. So she is going for the jealous strategy. Well it wasn't going to work. And it just made her look stupid. But I guess Edward sensed that I was upset because he put his arm around me and kissed my forehead and then zoned back into the movie.

Tanya and Jeff sat together in the single recliner. Tanya on Jeff's lap. Boy she didn't under-do anything. Half way through the movie she said, "Don't you have any more movies. This movie sucks. We should watch a romance or something like that. I love a good romance."

I rolled my eyes and said, "Tanya we are kind of watching this one right now, but after this we could watch Pride and Prejudice." I tried to make it sound as polite as possible, but I must admit it did have a slight edge to it.

Edward leaned down and said, "No provoking." He added a smile. I could tell that he meant it lightly but it was a warning. Tanya was volatile and there was no doubt about that.

We finished the movie and then watched most of Pride and Prejudice when Tanya said, "I wish that I could find my true love. And that once I found him, he would realize that I am perfect for him." But instead of saying that to her "boyfriend" she looked right at Edward.

As we had planned, Alice said, "I am sure that there is someone out there for you Tanya, but I don't think you have found him yet." It was bright and optimistic. But Tanya wouldn't have anything to do for it.



"Well, Alice," Tanya sneered, "Let's hypothetically say, that I have met my love and he is just an idiot who as fallen for a human."

"Tanya you have gone to far, STOP." Edward said protectively.

I could feel waves of calm pass over me as Jasper tried to calm Tanya down, but it didn't seem to be working. Her anger seemed to overpower his calm. How odd…While I was thinking about this, I had forgotten that Tanya had a devilish grin on her face and she was looking right at me. A slight growl issued from her chest. And then Jeff and Tanya jumped.

This is the last thing I remembered. After this, it was just blackness. A whole lot of blackness and nothing…
