Edward was silent the whole trip, obviously deep in thought and suffering from utter shock. I was there for him no matter what though. I held his hand and rubbed his shoulders, trying to calm him down and offer support. I had to admit, I was shocked myself. I couldn't understand how Edward could possibly have, like, a great nephew or something.
He was an only child, and his mother & father died during the Spanish Influenza epidemic. It made no sense. I was also a little sad that we had to leave our little 'heaven' early.

I was impatient to get home as the flight seemed to be dragging in.

As we finally departed through gate 78, we were greeted by our vampire family, but there was no sign of Renesmee. She must have been with Jacob. I took Edward's hand and we hugged each of our family members. Carlisle put his hand on either side of Edward's shoulders and looked him straight in the eye.

"Edward, there has been a lot of talk around Forks, someone looking for information on Carlisle Cullen & Edward Masen. Someone told him there was no Edward Masen, but Carlisle had an adopted sun, Edward Cullen. He looks similar to what you looked like in your human life. I'll explain everything in the car. You & Bella can ride with us." said Carlisle, with a concerned look in his eyes.

For once, everyone was silent on the way to the car, even Emmett.
Carlisle drove slow, for a vampire, and began to give Edward the full details. He intertwined his fingers though mine and squeezed my hand, showing me that he needed me.

"Well, Edward, I think it's time I told you. You had an older brother named Robert Masen. He was fifteen years older. Your mother had him very young, and back then, it was regarded a disgrace to be a teenage mother, so your parents decided to give him up at birth. But, one day, during the Spanish Influenza epidemic, Robert turned up at the hospital, demanding to see your mother, your father & yourself. It appeared that he had been doing research to find his real family, he found out he had a brother, you, and that you all had been affected with the Influenza, which led him to the hospital. Your mother didn't want you to know, so she would not let him see you. He left immediately, as he realised she wanted nothing to do with him, It seems that Robert must have married & had a child, and now obviously that child is now old, or dead, and had Anthony...
We followed Anthony all day yesterday and last night. Emmet and Jasper broke into his room at the old hotel down beside the antique store, and found your mothers journal. I have no idea how Anthony got his hands on that. Edward... she wrote about how I had a special gift, and I that I would save you from the Influenza, and give you eternal life. I really don't know how she sort of knew about me."

"What?" said Edward, with an expression of confusion, denial, hurt, anger and sadness on his face.

"Emmett also found five different books about vampires, three of his journals, and your birth certificate. Emmett read through the journals. There are things about you not having a death certificate. He had my medical records from the hospital I worked in whilst you & your mother were in my care. He has traced me through the hospitals. In his journal, he wrote about how I am still alive, and thinks you are too."

Edward didn't say a word. His mouth just hung open slightly and he pinched the bridge of his nose. The crease on his forehead that hadn't faded, became deeper. I wrapped my arms around him and he clung to me like a baby. Esme clambered into the back seat and rubbed Edwards back, trying to soothe him.

"I...I..." Edward began, but couldn't finish.

"WHY DID YOU NOT TELL ME I HAD A BROTHER ?" He suddenly bellowed.

I jumped back, and so did Esme, her eyes widened with horror. He was aggressive, and he snarled at Carlisle.

"I'm sorry Edward. I gave your mother my word. I never thought it would affect us." said Carlisle.

He looked upset.

"Edward, my love, please calm down. This isn't Carlisle's fault. When we get home, we can plan out what we are going to do, just please calm down." I said pleadingly.

I took his face between my hands and gazed into his eyes. Edward looked at my saddened expression and immediatley calmed down.

"I'm sorry, honey."

"It's fine. Edward? I am here for you always, and I will love you forever, no matter what." I said.

He kissed my forehead lightly and stroked my face. The he turned back towards Carlisle, who kept peering at him through the rear view mirror.

"Carlisle, I'm sorry, that was inappropriate. It's not your fault." he said, apologetically. His lower lip jutted out

"It's ok Edward. I'm sorry for keeping it from you. Let's just get home and try to figure out what we are going to do. By the way, Renesmee's school started back last Monday, she wanted to go back, so Esme has been driving her there everyday, I hope you don mind, she really wanted to see her friends. Oh, and erm, that's another problem. She looks around three months older, she might have to drop out of school until she is physically eighteen. We'll discuss this at a later date. Right now, Anthony is our concern. I really don't know what we are going to do." sighed Carlisle.

I held Edward, and tried to soothe him. Again, the car ride home seemed to be dragging in, even though Carlisle had sped up and was doing at least twenty over the limit. I didn't know what to say to Edward. For the first time in a while, I was speechless. After the Volturi, I thought our problems were over. I sighed. Edward peered up at me, questioningly. I just shook my head and smiled.

"Carlisle, I think it would be best if we stayed at the cottage so we are closer? Just until everything is sorted out." I said, my voice slightly uneven.

"I was about to say that actually. Everything is still in place. Let's go back to the main house just now." he smiled, but there was no kindness in the smile, just concern.

Eventually, we pulled up to the Cullen House. As we departed from the car, Alice was straight over, hugging us both. She then looked at Edward and patted his back.

"Everything is going to be ok, don't worry." she cooed.

Jasper and Emmett patted his back to and we all made our way into the house and into the fake dining room, We all gathered round the large glass table, that I had once gathered everyone around, to discuss me becoming a vampire, a part of the family.I sat on Edward's lap, stroking his back and resting the side of my face on his hair.

Carlisle cleared his throat and began to tell everyone about the story he had told myself and Edward in the car. There were gasps & raised everyone began to peer at Edward. An awkward, tense silence filled the room, and everyone became uncomfortable. I rubbed his shoulder & kissed his hair lightly. He gripped me tight, not wanting to let go. He needed me now, and I was here, no matter what.
