"Why did you choose to car with us?" Jasper asked.

"Because Alice was going to kill me if I stayed in the same car with her and she's with Rosalie and Emmett, so. . ." I shrugged as if that was explainable.

Edward looked at me from the rear view mirror. "I don't like the new you."

"It's your opinion," I shrugged.

"Why do you need to sleep if you are a vampire?" Jasper asked.

"It's just how we are. Most of us spend the day time sleeping since we can't be in the sun."

"But you have rings."

"Only a few of us have rings," I reminded him. "Not all of us."

"So you'll die if in the sun?"

I nodded, "Perish. Turn to ash."

"Ouch."

"Oh its very painful."

"And what do you eat?"

"We are like you when it comes to human food. We have to puke it up. But we can drink alcohol." I smirked. "Even get drunk. Animal blood is really not the best for us, though. It messes with us and makes us weak. Human blood, however, gives us more powers and we're able to feed less and less the more humans we feed off of."

"That's. . . complicated," Jasper commented.

Shrugging, I replied, "Makes sense to me."

"What else happens to you?" Edward asked.

"We can be killed by a stake to the heart. It's really painful," I told Edward. "We can change into an animal of our choice, if we're strong enough and drink human blood. We love to play games, I guess you could say. We have heartbeats. And we burn."

"Do you age? You know, like over time you get older?" Edward asked.

I shook my head, "Nope."

"Bats?"

"Depends on what animal you turn into."

"What do you turn into?"

"Owl. Tawny owl."

"Coffins?"

"To escape sun sometimes, but no."

"Dungeons?"

"Again," I laughed. "To escape the sun."

"What did you do to Miss Carp?" Jasper asked. "Rosalie said something."

"Compulsion? Oh, its easy. I just have to look in someone's eyes and say something and they'll do what ever I say. It only works with humans. It doesn't work on any of you or wolves."

Which reminds me, leaving town will break Mike's heart and Jake's. Another two.

"That's so cool. So you can do anything you want and get away with it."

"Which is why I was able to convince Charlie to let us go to Phoenix. Why I could convince him to let Edward go on a date with me. And why whenever he was coming home early, I convinced him to stay longer. Simple stuff."

"I wish I had that trait," Edward muttered.

"Dude, you already are Esme and Carlisle's favorite," Jasper laughed.

That peaked my interest, "I am not," Edward replied.

"You so are," Jasper said. "You go the human girlfriend, the first changed, and Esme's first son. You have never slipped and you're so favored. Alice is right there with you."

"Now Alice is the favorite," Edward argued. "Carlisle doesn't care if she spends the entirety of her account in one shopping trip."

"That greedy bitch," I muttered.

"Your the favorite son," Jasper replied.

"I am not!"

"Are too!"

"Am not!"

"Boys, boys," I sighed, leaning forwards so my head was between both of them. "Perhaps you should settle this sometime other than a twenty hour car ride? Hmm?"

Edward sighed, but immediately said, "Sorry, love."

Jasper rolled his eyes, "Yeah, sorry, Kate."

I smacked his head, sending him forward slightly. "Don't call me Kate."

"Katherine."

"Better," I approved. "Full speed, Edward. I want to get there soon. I've missed Mystic Falls."

I smirked as I relaxed in the backseat. Mystic Falls, Damon, Stefan, here we come. I settled down and let myself drift off to sleep.

"Why did you never tell me you were a vampire?" Jasper asked when I woke up a few hours later.

"Because I was afraid you would have pushed me away. Now, I don't really give a damn. You're married to Alice."

"Who's getting her real mate today. Which probably means we'll be getting a divorce."

"Such a shame. Being single sucks, Jasper, let me tell you."

He was quiet. Jasper didn't reply to my comment, but Edward did.

"But you aren't single anymore, love," Edward smiled.

"I did break up with you in the beginning of the game," I replied.

"But-"

"I never said we were back together."

"Bella, will you please go back out with me?" Edward sighed.

"Let me think about it," I replied. "After all, Emmett did tell me you were with Rosalie a few times."

"It was only once while I was dating you though!" Edward protested.

"It was while we were dating?" I asked, my eyes widening.

"I mean, uh-" Edward started to back track.

"Dude, leave it," Jasper advised.

"Yes, listen to Jasper so you don't dig yourself in a deeper hole," I said coldly. "You cheated on me while we were together. And you didn't tell me? If you would have said something, I would have most likely let you!"

"You have to understand that the family switches up mates all the time to spice things up though," Jasper reasoned with me.

"It still doesn't change anything," I told Jasper. "He still didn't tell me. And no doubt you get approval from your mates before you go and get in someone else's bed."

"Well, of course, but-"

"But what?" I inquired.

"Your right," Jasper admitted.

"Therefore, Edward, I believe you just blew that chance that I would ever get back with you."

He sputtered, trying to come up with an excuse for why I should come back to him.

"But-I-You-See-I-Rose-You love me!" he finally shouted.

"Are you telling me how to feel, Edward?" I whispered in his ear. He groaned and there must have been some situation going on because suddenly a dark spot appeared on his khaki shorts.

"Dude, you did not," Jasper laughed.

I wrinkled my nose in distaste, "Disgusting, Edward."


A good point was made by Dark-Supernatural-Angel. I was using Wikipedia to figure out Katherine's history, according to the TV show. So, yes, i altered it slightly to fit with the story. But she was in Mystic Falls in 1864, according to the timeline of the show. So, that part is correct, and the thing about her being preggo and banished. Yeah, that's true too. So thanks for pointing that out and here's the note I should have put with it. This chapter was a little boring to write, except for the end. And the beginning. I lost myself somewhere in between. Hope you can't tell, but, well, I just told you. Fun stuff happening next!
