Jasper watched Edward closely, trying to find any sign of hope or life, or anything minutely positive. But every time he happened to look into Edward's eyes, all he could see was a dead man; a dead man in intense agony.

Jasper felt a strong sense of frustration every time he thought of Bella. She was so sweet and innocent, and above all, she made Edward happy. Why did she die? He frowned as he thought about it. From the emotions he had picked up from Edward a few days before the wedding, it seemed that there was some tension. But Jasper didn't honestly think Bella would commit suicide. It wasn't logical, she had no reason to. He shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts. Another vampire could have killed her, but then the sent would have lingered in Bella's house. Jasper growled slightly in agitation.

A chocked sob pulled Jasper out of his thoughts. He glanced up and saw Edward curled up on the couch, his body shaking with sorrow. Less than a moment later, Jasper sank to his knees and clutched his head in agony. He couldn't hold back the small cry that Edward's pain brought him. Alice was hovering over him in the next second, trying to send him soothing thoughts even though she wasn't exactly brimming over with happiness either. Within the next few minutes, the rest of the family had trickled into the room and sat on whatever empty space they could find (all desperately trying to avoid Edward and Jasper).

Carlisle was the first to break the uncomfortable silence. "Ok, everyone, listen up. Edward, please listen, just try to listen." He desperately tried to ease Edward's pain by diverting his attention.

Edward slowly lifted his eyes and brought his haunted, burning eyes up to Carlisle's. Carlisle flinched but stared deep into his son's eyes, trying to bring some condolence. Edward's face just contorted in a painful grimace and he impatiently waved his hand for Carlisle to continue so he could escape into either his room, or the wilderness.

Carlisle sighed and turned his attention to everyone else in the house. "Well, I just received a call from the Denali coven and they want to meet us and offer their sympathy and compassion, because they are like our extended family after all." He met the gaze of every family member, except Edward and noted their reactions.

Everyone was fairly comfortable with them coming over and a series of nods rippled through the room. After everyone had voiced their consent, they all turned to Edward to see what he thought. He gave them a small meaningless expression that barely passed for a smile and shrugged.

"It's not going to help. And Tanya is still going to annoy the day lights out of me. (Whatever is left of them, that is.) But you're right. Let them come, but don't expect them to change anything." His voice was hardly above a whisper and his voice sounded just as lifeless as his eyes.

With that, Edward got up and walked outside, disappearing after a few minutes. Once he was gone, everyone in the room exchanged worried glances but departed as well. Now all that was left to do was wait for the Denali coven to show up and hope that Edward was wrong.
