Chapter ten is here.

Everyone bow down to it's glory.

And then read it.

And then review.

Thanks!

Weeks went by without anything spectacular. No conclusion from Edward or Bella, I still wasn't allowed around humans, unless absolutely necessary, like the shopping trip, which in Alice's mind was absolutely necessary, and even then, only if I was just fed. I was not even allowed to see Bella unless I was fed. In other words, I didn't see many people besides other vampires and Bella for a while. There was a lot of yelling on Bella's part and a few times she ran out of the house in tears, shortly followed by Edward.

Finally, Edward and Bella came down the stairs, and for once, Bella wasn't crying and Edward wasn't scowling. It had been one or the other since the fight.

"We have reached a decision." said Bella, now grinning wildly.

We waited.

"Yes?" prompted Emmett.

"We have decided that Bella will come with us, and then we will decide if she becomes a vampire or not at a later time." Edward smiled down at Bella. They seemed very proud of this decision, for they were both beaming at all of us from the stairs.

"Good. And now that that is resolved, onto more important matters." Alice stated, and Edward raised his eyebrows at the last part, "Where are we going to go?"

Rosalie was the first to answer, "I think Paris. The Paris house is defiantly my favorite."

"What about Tuscany? Paris is sunny anyways." came Jasper's reply.

"You say Paris is sunny? And anyway, Tuscany is too close to the Volturi." Alice said, brushing aside the idea of Tuscany.

"I know! We should go to Brazil! The rainiest place in the world would always be welcome." Said Esme.

Carlisle's eyebrows pulled together and he shot down the idea with a, "One word: 1977"

"Oh right."

"England?" I offered.

"That... might work." Alice said nodding her head, "Besides, they still speak English, which means that Bella and Claudia wouldn't have to learn a new language in such a short time."

"Who votes England?" Carlisle said. Everyone but Rosalie put up their hands.

"I still say Paris." she pouted, Emmett laughed and squeezed her hand.

"So when are we leaving, Carlisle?" Alice asked.

Carlisle answered right away, "Next week. And Bella, that means that you may not see your family again," Edward growled, "I'm not saying it's positive, Edward. Anyway, Bella, you should say goodbye."

"I know." Bella was no longer smiling. There was a silence, until Jasper made us all happy again. I guess that he had enough of female emotion to last him the rest of eternity because of Bella and I, and he didn't waste any time getting us back to normal.

The next day around three thirty, Bella, Alice and Edward had just gotten home from school, and the boys had agreed to let us have some girls only time, and so we were talking and somehow the subject of how Bella could get Edward to transform her came up without us even trying.

"Hmm... you could threaten to not speak to him?" suggested Alice.

"But he already expects me to leave him eventually." countered Bella.

"Oh yeah."

"You could... uh... threaten to... no never mind." frowned Rosalie.

"Fake your death?" I said.

"Eh, maybe, but couldn't he tell that I was only pretending?"

"Hahaha... what if you weren't?" I joked, we all laughed, and then Bella smiled a very mischievous and dangerous smile.

"Oh, Bella you wouldn't!" I cried.

"No, I'm only kidding." she laughed.

"Good because you know that Edward would kill me." I said seriously.

"I know, I know, as if he could kill you." we all erupted into a fit of giggles.

"So what's going on in here, ladies?" asked Emmett as he strolled into the room.

"Oh, noting really, we're just planning a going away party for ourselves." replied Rosalie with a wink to us to go along.

"Hmm... really, and what does this party entail?" Emmett said as he scooped Rosalie up in his arms despite her objecting squeals.

"Oh nothing much, maybe a piñata, a pin the tail on the donkey, a feast of towns people for us and maybe some salad for Bella. You know; the usual."

"Oh haha, very funny." he mocked.

"Yeah, well, put me down." replied Rosalie crossly. Emmett pouted and put her down grudgingly, but planted a kiss on her forehead before he swept out of the room.

The next week flew by faster than I could have expected. Bella told Charlie that Carlisle had gotten a job offering and he had to take it, and since she and Edward would be getting married soon, she would be accompanying them. I attended my first and last week of school at Forks high, and I didn't fit in at all it seemed. I had also noticed that Bella and Edward had been going off to some meadow or something a lot recently. Also, with all the happy couples around me I started missing the old Louis more, and was very glad that we would be leaving soon. Only on the last day did anything strange happen; Bella thought that it was her responsibility to say goodbye to Jacob. Jacob, the werewolf. Edward got a little more than upset about this decision, but finally Alice talked him into it saying that she and I would accompany her, to make sure she was safe. Edward said that he would too, but I pointed out that three vampires might freak him out. We were parked on the street across from his house getting ready to go when I smelled something terrible.

"What is that smell?!" I yelped, positively disgusted.

Alice laughed. "That, my dear, is essence of werewolf."

Bella scowled, and got out of Edward's Volvo. Alice laughed again. Bella knocked on the door and almost immediately a very tall boy, taller than that Embry boy I met, but with the same werewolfy look about him. And then there was the smell... I felt my face cringe into a scowl and I had to resist killing him right there.

"Bell- oh." his dace turned quickly from the look of hope into a scowl that matched mine. He stiffened. He sniffed. He shook. Then suddenly his face was expressionless.

"Jacob." Bella sighed. I could feel the sadness rolling off her.

"I see that you have brought bodyguards. Was that his idea?" he sneered, his eyes still lifeless. Alice hissed through her teeth.

"Jacob, don't do that. I need to tell you something important. Well, actually, two things." Bella said quietly. Jacob didn't answer, so Bella continued, "Jacob, Victoria has another vampire traveling with her now. It's a boy about our age. And one more thing," Bella stopped then, a silent tear running down her cheek, "Jake, we're leaving Forks. We're all going to London." she had started full on crying at this, and Jacob's face fell, losing its dead mask, and a shudder passed through him and Alice and I immediately tried to pull Bella back, but she wouldn't let us. "Ju-just pretend that we-we were never here, okay?"

"Bella..." the werewolf whispered.

"Jake we've got to go. I'll see y- no. Never mind. I won't. Bye, Jake." Bella continued whispering. And then she silently wrapped her arms around the monstrosity of a boy, and he hugged her back and the way they clung to each other it was apparent that they loved each other, albeit if Bella loved Edward more. By this time I couldn't help it and had to stop breathing. Alice had told me of this trick in one of our Vampires-101 classes, and I needed to try it out. It felt odd at first, not breathing and not going blue, but I got used to it, and I found that since no air molecules were being sucked into my nose, I didn't smell the gross werewolf smell. I was jerked out of my thoughts as Bella said one last thing to Jacob.

"Jake, can you do one thing for me?"

"Anything." he whispered back.

"Smile."

Sorry for the heartbreaking ending to this chapter, but I thought that was a very nice last line.

I'll see you next week. Love to reviewers.
