A/N: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check out my other story Teenagers in Love. It has A LOT more of the whole situation and explains everything a lot better. It also introduces the new people I have in the last chapter. In case you don't read it, Garrett is my cousin, and all the rest of the people are my friends. The conflict isn't till chapter 13, but I still think its good up till there as well. :p Please R &R!!! ;)

Nessie's POV

Uncle Emmett woke me up the next morning.

"Ness, do you think you can help us load up the luggage?" he asked.

"Of course," I replied. "Just let me get dressed."

"Okay," he said and left the room. I looked at the clock, and it was 5:30. I stretched, and picked out my clothes. Before I went to help with the luggage, Esme made me eat. I scarffed down the two waffles and went outside. Carlisle was pulling all of the cars around front, and Emmett was taking everyone's luggage out to the cars. To follow suit, I grabbed two bags and followed him Daddy's silver Volvo. I put in the two suitcases, and went back for two more. When we'd filled up all of the cars, I went into the kitchen to find that everyone was awake and eating, while Carlisle was talking.

"Okay, the luggage is all packed up," said Emmett. "Everyone ready?"

I looked at the faces of everyone in the room, and immediately knew the answer to that question.

"Come on guys, this will be an adventure for all of us," Lindsay said. "And I can guarantee you we'll all be back safe."

"That's the spirit," said Carlisle. "Let's go everyone." They piled into the cars, waving to me and Jake as they sped down the road. Tears filled my eyes and I watched until I couldn't see them any longer. I rested my head on Jake's shoulder. He pulled me into a hug while I cried into his shirt. I was going to miss them so much. I didn't know how long they'd be gone, and everyone I loved, except Jake was going to be so far away. I cried and cried, while we stood there in the cold rain, not moving. I sniffled.

"We should go inside," I said.

"Okay," Jake replied, and we both went into my family's large, now empty, house. I sighed. I didn't like the feeling of having the whole place empty besides me and Jake. I looked around; picturing everyone's positions they'd normally be in. Esme would be in the kitchen, usually cooking something, while Carlisle would be sitting at one of the barstools, pretending to be interested in the book he was reading, but really be watching her. Uncle Emmett and Aunt Rose would either be cuddling up watching some sport on TV, or in the garage, while Rosalie did something unknown to one of our many cars. Aunt Alice could be found almost anywhere, and Uncle Jasper was always following her. And finally, Daddy would be sitting at his piano, playing some beautiful melody, while Mama sat on top of it, watching him. I sighed and sat down on one of our very large couches that were usually occupied by my friends.

"Ness?" I heard from the door. I turned around, to see a very confused Chelsea wandering into our house.

"Chelsea!" I exclaimed, and ran to hug her. She hugged me back, still very confused.

"What happened? Did I miss something?" she asked, looking around our empty house. She'd been gone with her 'family' in Africa for about 3 months or so.

"Um, yeah," I started. "The Volturi are after everyone."

"What do you mean everyone?" she asked.

"All of our human friends," I said, tearing up again. "Carlisle took all of them to a different country, and they're on the run while he tries to reason with the Volturi."

"That's terrible!" she exclaimed. "What are you supposed to do?"

"Carlisle said that Jake and I would stay here and live our lives as normal," I replied.

"How can you do that when they're all in danger?" she asked, looking frantic.

"I'm going to try the best I can to live normally, but it'll be hard with the house completely empty," I said. "And Carlisle said he'd take care of it."

"Okay," she replied. "But if you need me, you know where to find me."

"Thanks Chelsea," I said, and hugged her before she went out the door. I sat down again and wondered what the future held for us. I certainly hoped it would be bright.
