A/N: Another chapter for you all. Thanks for all of your support. This chapter has the fight scene like I said, but does someone die? Find out when you read. Enjoy
The next day after school; Bella and Alice were going to have a talk with Charlie. Together they were going to tell Charlie about their relationship, and prepare Bella for the worst case scenario.
"Are you ready, Bella?" Alice asked as they pulled up in front of Bella's house.
"As ready as I will ever be." Bella sighed; obviously stressed out.
"Well let's go. I already know he is going to be okay with everything. Have confidence Bella." Alice said cheerfully, and patted Bella on the thigh.
"It's still scary as hell." Bella mumbled.
"I know, but it's all going to work out. I promise you this."
"I believe you. Let's go and get this over with." Bella got out of the car, and Alice followed.
"Should I hold your hand?" Alice met Bella's pace, and asked her.
"Umm…wait until I tell him, then you can hold my hand." Bella said, unsure of what to do.
"Okay, whatever you want." Alice said happily.
"Thank you." Bella said as they approached the front door.
Alice leaned in and kissed Bella lightly on the lips before they entered the house.
"I love you." Alice said quietly.
"I love you too." Bella said even quieter.
Bella then slowly opened the door, and allowed Alice to walk in first. Bella came in from behind her and shut the door.
"Bella, is that you?" Charlie called from the living room. Of course the television was on and tuned to the sports channel.
"Yeah Dad, it's me. Alice is with me too." Bella said as calmly as she could. The two girls stepped into the living room, and Charlie turned his head to look at the two girls briefly.
"Hey you two." He said as his head starting turning back to the television.
"Hey Charlie" Alice said sweetly.
"Dad, can we talk with you for a minute…there's something we need to tell you." Bella hesitated. Her hands were beginning to shake; she desperately wanted to leave.
"Sure Bella, just a minute." Charlie kept watching the tv.
Bella looked to Alice, and Alice nodded her head encouragingly.
"It's kind of important." Bella said quietly. She looked to the floor; nerves were getting the best of her.
Charlie looked up at Bella once again, and noticed the expression on her face. Immediately, he muted the tv and turned his attention to her.
"What is it Bella?" Charlie asked in a concerned voice.
"Umm…" Bella's voice hitched. She cleared her throat, and had trouble continuing what she was going to say.
Alice slowly approached Bella's side, and smiled.
"It's okay Bella; you can do this." Alice said softly.
Bella nodded her head, and finally looked at Charlie.
"I have to tell you something important about me and Alice." Bella had more confidence with Alice by her side.
"Well, what is it?" Charlie asked softly.
"Well…I know you're glad I'm not dating Edward anymore, but I am dating someone else now…It's Alice." Bella's was stuttering. That sentence didn't come out the way she wanted it to.
"What?" Charlie asked confused.
"Alice…I'm dating Alice. She is my girlfriend." Bella said a little more clearly.
"Oh…" Charlie said quickly.
The two girls stared at him for a minute. That couldn't be all he was going to say.
"Ohhhh" Charlie said in a more understanding tone after realizing exactly what Bella was trying to say.
Alice smiled at Charlie, and immediately reached for Bella's hand. Bella gladly let Alice hold her hand.
"The two of you are dating?" Charlie asked in a lighter tone.
"Yeah dad, we are." Bella was surprised in Charlie's tone.
"What do you think?" Alice asked happily.
"I think its okay with me… it's your life Bella, and I'm not going to stop you from living it the way you want."
Bella let out a sigh in relief. She was about to pass out from her nerves.
"I need to sit down." Bella mumbled, as she fell against the sofa. She leaned her head against the back of the sofa, and stared up at the ceiling.
"This is wonderful Charlie." Alice was practically bouncing off the walls.
"Are you okay, Bella?" Charlie smiled.
"Yeah, I've just been under a lot of stress lately. I'm about to have a nervous breakdown is all."
"Oh, don't be so dramatic." Alice laughed.
"You don't know how hard that was." Bella sighed.
"Well you don't have to worry. I'm fine with it." Charlie said. His attention was slowly being stolen back by the television.
"Thank you dad." Bella spoke softly.
"You're welcome. Just remember you're going to be the one to tell your mom."
"I know…I'll tell her eventually."
"Okay…" Charlie trailed off, as his full attention went back to the television.
"Come on Alice, let's go upstairs." Bella sat up, and started walking towards the stairs. Alice followed right behind her.
"No funny stuff." Charlie muttered before the girls were out of ear shot.
"Dad…" Bella groaned.
"Don't worry Charlie." Alice said cheerfully, and then skipped up the stairs behind Bella.
Once Bella got to her room she shut the door quickly, and turned to face Alice.
"I'll pack a couple of pairs of clothing; just in case something happens." Alice was already over in Bella's closet.
"Okay" Bella walked over to her bed, and sat down on the edge. She was still shaking a little from talking with Charlie.
"It's all going to be okay, Bella." Alice said from inside her closet.
Bella didn't say anything; she was focusing on calming down. Mostly she just wanted to stop shaking.
"That was the scariest thing I've ever had to do." Bella mumbled. She took deep breathes to try and slow down her heart rate.
"I know it was, but it's all over now." Alice walked out of the closet with a pile of clothes in her hands.
"I still have to tell my mom."
"She should feel the same way as Charlie; shouldn't she?" Alice questioned.
"I would think so, but she might be upset about not having grandchildren."
"Is that all? You're telling her your gay, and she's going to be worried about grandchildren? We can always adopt..." Alice trailed off.
"Two vampires adopting a human baby? That might be a problem." Bella said.
"We'll figure something out. What matters the most is that your mom will be accepting of us being in a relationship together."
"She should be okay with that part."
"Then there's no problem. It's all going to work out. We can be together without any difficulties." Alice set the clothes down on Bella's bed, and then made her way over to Bella.
She sat down next Bella, and put her arm over Bella's shoulder.
"I'm here to protect you. We all are. Nothing bad is going to happen; I'm just taking all the precautions we need to take."
"I'm so glad I have you." Bella leaned in and kissed Alice against the cheek.
"I'm lucky you chose me…Are you ready to go back to my place?" Alice changed the subject.
"Do you think my dad will let me; now that he knows we're together?"
"I don't think he will have a problem with that. We can just tell him we're sleeping in separate rooms because my parents won't allow it." Alice said happily.
"You know all the answers to everything." Bella gave Alice a small smile.
"I know I do. Now come on; let's go." Alice packed Bella's clothes in a small bag, and tossed it over her shoulder.
Bella led the way downstairs and back into the living room.
"Dad, I need to talk to you again." Bella said politely. She stopped shaking from before.
"What is it?" Charlie said, as his head slowly turned in the girls direction.
"I'm going to be spending the night at Alice's again; if that's alright with you."
"Where will you be sleeping?" was the first thing that came out of Charlie's mouth.
"My parents have us sleeping in separate rooms Charlie. They already know about us." Alice said calmly.
"Well I guess that's alright then. I trust your parents, so have fun Bella." Charlie said.
"Thanks Dad. Are you going to be okay by yourself?"
"Sure I am. I've managed to do it before. Go have fun Bella; I don't want to make you stay here."
"Okay, I'll see you later." Bella said slowly.
"Bye Bella. I…love you." Charlie hesitated saying the last part.
"I love you too, Dad." Bella said, surprised.
Bella looked at her father for a minute longer. He had already turned around and started watching television again.
Alice tugged on Bella's arm, and Bella followed Alice to the front door.
The two girls walked out of the house, and up to the car.
"Why is Charlie being so calm about this? I thought he would at least be a little upset." Bella questioned.
Alice opened the door for Bella, and then walked over to her side and slipped inside.
"It's because he loves you Bella. He loves you so much; that it doesn't matter what choices you make in life. It's unconditional love."
"It feels weird."
"What feels weird?" Alice asked as she began driving down the street.
"Love…I've never felt this much love before. It's weird…" Bella said quietly.
"Is it a good weird?" Alice asked.
"Of course it is." Bella said quickly.
"There are a lot of people who love you Bella. Sometimes your dad may not show much affection towards you, but he really does love you."
"I know he does. Maybe I should show him a little more affection…if I get to see him again."
"I'm going to make sure you get to see Charlie again. Don't waste your time worrying anymore."
Bella nodded her head. She didn't want to argue with Alice, so she chose to reflect on her thoughts all the way back to the Cullen's.
Alice arrived at her house within ten minutes of them leaving Charlie's. She stopped the car in the usual spot, and turned off the car. She was going to get out of the car, but froze. Another vision was coming; it was a little more detailed than before.
Victoria was approaching the Cullen's house. She knew what she was up against, but she had her new clan with her. The Cullen's were outnumbered.
Surely she would be able to get to Bella. The new borns would distract the Cullen's while she made her move to get Bella. She had recited this plan to the new born's repeatedly.
"Distract the others, while I get the human." She said.
The new borns nodded in agreement.
"I promise you all the greatest blood you will ever taste in your life. Once you smell her; you will know what I mean."
There was a short pause, and Victoria continued her speech.
"We will attack at midnight. Remember, focus on the vampires; the girl is mine."
The new borns acknowledged their role, and waited until it was time to attack.
They were all situated in the surrounding forest. Far enough away to where the Cullen's wouldn't sense them until it was too late.
Alice snapped out of her vision, and looked at Bella.
"Alice, what is it?" Bella asked a little frightened.
"What time is it?" Alice asked quickly.
Bella looked at the time on her cell phone and responded, "It's 9:00 pm."
"We don't have very long." Alice said
"Very long for what?" Bella asked confused.
"Victoria is coming at midnight."
"How do you know its tonight?" Bella's eyes were wide, and she was beginning to freak out.
"I don't know for sure, but we can't risk not doing anything about it. Come on, we have to go tell everyone." Alice got out of the car quickly, and Bella followed.
Alice grabbed Bella's hand, and rushed her into the house.
"Victoria is coming." Alice announced at the front door.
Alice led Bella into the living room, and they waited for the others to come along.
It wasn't long before they were all coming into the living room. One after another they all gathered around to hear what was going on.
"Are you sure?" Carlisle asked once he walked into the room.
"I can't be sure it's tonight, but we can't risk not doing anything."
"You're right about that. Are we prepared to fight?" Carlisle addressed everyone.
"There wasn't much time to prepare, but we can do it." Jasper said encouragingly.
"We'll need to call Jacob." Alice added.
"Right, Bella can you call Jacob please?" Carlisle asked.
"Sure" Bella said slowly. She was still a little shaken up that this was going to happen tonight.
Bella grabbed her phone and dialed Jacob's number. The Cullen's all gathered together, and began talking about strategy while Bella was on the phone.
"Hello?" Billy answered.
"Hi, can I speak to Jake please?" Bella asked as calmly as she could.
"Sure Bella. Let me get him. One minute…" Billy trailed off.
Bella waited for Jacob to pick up the phone.
"Bella?" Jacob finally answered.
"Hey Jake. We need your help. Victoria is coming." Bella was quick to the point.
"When?" Jacob said quickly.
"She is going to be here at midnight."
"What! That's not enough time!" Jacob yelled into the phone.
Bella moved her ear away from the phone as Jacob began cursing as loud as he could. After a minute, she put her ear back the receiver.
"I know it's not enough time, but we really don't have an option. You don't have to come if you don't want to." Bella said.
"Of course I want to come. Don't you ever think that I wouldn't come protect you…I'll be there in a few minutes." Jacob said seriously.
"Okay" Bella said, and hung up her phone quietly. She turned her attention to the Cullen's who were all whispering to each other in what they were planning to do.
"Emmett and Edward, you'll be in charge of physical combat since you are the strongest. Rosalie, Esme… I want you two to help distract the new borns, so Edward and Emmett can get to them easily. Jasper, you and I can focus our attention on getting Victoria out of the way, and Alice I want you to try and protect Bella. Don't let anyone get near her." Carlisle said.
"I won't let that happen." Alice whispered.
"You should let me be in charge of protecting Bella. Alice might not be able to hold off all the new borns." Edward said coldly.
"Edward…I put you in charge of combat for a reason. Don't start fighting with each other now; this is the time when we need to be a team." Carlisle spoke before Alice could get a word in.
Edward didn't say anything else.
"Jacob is on his way." Bella said quietly.
They all turned around and looked at her. It was kind of freaky having all these vampires staring at you. Bella hesitantly took a step back.
"Is he bringing anyone else with him?" Carlisle asked.
"I don't know. He didn't say."
"And when will he be here?"
"Soon, very soon."
At this time Alice walked back over towards Bella and wrapped her arms around her. She leaned in closer to Bella's ear and whispered, "This will all be over soon. Once Victoria is out of the picture, we can get back to being normal."
"Normal? What is normal?" Bella asked.
"Well, we can get back to being carefree." Alice corrected herself.
"That sounds good to me." Bella sighed.
"Do you think we should go hunting before we start fighting? I want to be as strong as I can be." Emmett said.
"We don't have much time left, so if you want to go hunting; go now." Carlisle said.
Rosalie, Jasper, and Emmett and sat up and began to walk out the door.
"Edward…Alice, don't you want to go hunting so you'll be strong enough?" Carlisle asked.
"I don't want to leave Bella." Alice said.
"Nor do I." Edward replied.
"Alice, you haven't hunted in a few days. Are you sure you don't want to go?" Bella asked.
"I'll be fine Bella. I'm not going to leave you." Alice smiled.
"Edward you can go hunting if you want. Alice will take care of me." Bella said to Edward.
"I'm fine" Edward said quietly.
And so they waited. Eventually, Jacob showed up by himself.
"No one else was able to make it on such short notice." Jacob said as an excuse.
"We'll we're happy to have you join us anyway." Carlisle welcomed him in the house.
"Thank you Jacob." Alice told him.
"I'm doing this for Bella, but you're welcome." Jacob said. He tried to avoid Edward as much as he could.
Jacob walked over towards Bella and Alice. He smiled weakly when he approached Bella.
"Are you okay?" Jacob asked.
"For now I am. Thank you for coming Jacob, this means so much to me." Bella smiled widely.
Jacob couldn't help it when he saw Bella smile; that made him loose his act of being tough and he melted. He loved Bella so much that even a smile from her could get to him. Jacob loved and hated the feeling of love at the same time.
"It's no problem Bella. I would do anything for you." Jacob said serenely.
Alice rolled her eyes, and Edward began to growl.
"Oh shut up." Jacob said to Edward in a harsh tone. He looked at Edward with a disgusted look. Edward returned the gesture.
Edward moved from his seat and he was about to approach Jacob; when Alice stopped him.
"Don't do this now. We need to get through tonight first; then you can tear each other apart. Please…" Alice said pleadingly.
Bella nodded her head and said, "Yeah" It wasn't much to say, but she felt she had to say something.
Edward backed down, and moved back to his seat. Jacob turned his gaze away from Edward and focused on Bella and Alice.
"So what do we do now?" Jacob asked.
"We wait and see what happens." Carlisle interrupted.
Jacob nodded his head, and took a seat far away from Edward. The others did the same; they all sat down and waited for something to happen. Eventually Emmett, Rosalie, and Jasper came back from their hunt. Their eyes were all a brilliant shade of gold.
Alice and Edward had black eyes; while Carlisle and Esme had slightly golden eyes.
"It's almost time." Alice said quietly.
Jacob and Bella glanced at the clock on the wall. It read 11:55pm.
Bella sighed deeply, and Jacob tried to comfort her.
"It's okay Bella. We're going to get through this. I will protect you."
Bella was starting to get tired of hearing those words, "It will be okay." How do they know? Well…Alice might know, but that's only because she can see the future. Everyone else doesn't know what they're saying.
Bella just nodded her head.
"I can smell them. They're here now." Jasper said as he gazed out the window.
"Do we go out and fight, or do we stay in the house and wait?" Jacob asked.
At that time, the back glass door shattered to pieces. The new borns smelled Bella, and they weren't going to wait to be invited inside.
Two of them came in from the broken door, and the Cullen's prepared themselves.
"Alice, take Bella to your room!" Carlisle commanded.
Edward and Emmett moved in on the two vampires who came in the back, and began fighting with them. Emmett tore off both the arms of a new born male; all in one pull. He started beating the vampire with his own arms as it yelled in pain. Edward dodged an attack from the other new born, and quickly moved forward and snapped its neck. The vampire was paralyzed, and it fell to the floor. Rosalie ran over to the paralyzed vampire, and began to dismember it as Edward moved in on the other vampires who were now coming inside the house.
Alice grabbed onto Bella's hand, and pulled her towards the stairs. However, before she could reach the stairs she was stopped by a new born who came through the front door.
Alice pushed Bella behind her to protect her from any possible attacks. The new born was ready to pounce; and this is where Jacob came in.
Jacob, now in werewolf form, sprang at the new born who was going after Bella. The new born hissed when she saw Jacob flying towards her. He tackled the new born to the floor, and bit down on her throat. Blood was spraying everywhere, and the vampire began choking on its own blood. Jacob shook his head violently against the neck of the vampire, and eventually he heard a snap. The head of the girl was now rolling across the floor, and then Jacob focused on tearing up the rest of her limbs.
Alice took this opportunity to pull Bella into her arms and run up the stairs with her. Halfway up the stairs; Alice was met by Victoria. She must have broken in from the upstairs. Alice halted, and tried to turn around and run back down the stairs, but she was met by another new born.
Alice remained calm, but Bella began to scream.
Esme and Jasper turned their attention from the new borns that were coming in from the back; to the situation on the stairs.
The new born female on the stairs was very eager to get to Bella, and she started approaching Alice at a high rate of speed. Alice put Bella down and turned to defend herself from the new born who was trying as hard as she could to get to Bella. Alice was able to kick the new born back down the stairs; where she was met by Jasper and Esme. The two of them began tearing the girl apart, and she shrieked in anguish as they were doing so.
This is where Victoria made her move. While Alice was turned away from Bella, Victoria launched after her. Bella yelled, causing Alice to turn around sharply, only to see Victoria with her arms wrapped around Bella's neck.
"Let her go!" Alice commanded.
Victoria smiled evilly towards Alice. "I thought she belonged to him." Victoria then slowly pointed her finger over towards Edward; who just ripped off the head of another vampire.
Edward dropped the head to the floor, and looked up to see the situation taking place on the stairs.
"No! Let Bella go!" Edward yelled even louder than Alice.
Victoria turned her full attention to Edward, and Alice noticed that she loosened her grip on Bella's neck.
Alice launched at Victoria while she was distracted, and Victoria turned in just enough time to see Alice. Victoria then threw Bella over the banister of the stairs, and Bella yelled as she flew to the floor. Her screams stopped as her body slammed into the floor below them.
Alice tackled Victoria into the stairs, causing a few of them to break from the force. Victoria started laughing, and Alice bit down on her neck to make her shut up. Victoria stopped laughing immediately. Alice grabbed onto Victoria's hair, and ripped off her head in one tug.
The new borns that were downstairs were all running towards the now bleeding, Bella. The Cullen's and Jacob raced over to Bella's body, to try and get the new borns off of her.
Edward and Carlisle pulled off the new borns one at a time; while the others took care of destroying them.
At this time Alice came rushing down the stairs; Victoria's head was rolling down the stairs along with Alice.
Emmett was able to keep the new borns from coming after Bella again. Emmett pushed them towards the others, and they all shared in tearing each one to pieces. There was yelling coming from everywhere; the only one who was silent was Bella.
Alice rushed past the limbs of the vampires, and pushed her way to Bella's side. She knelt down next to Edward; who was holding onto Bella's hand.
Carlisle was examining her when Alice set her gaze on her.
"Bella…" Alice trailed off.
"She has a broken leg, a few ribs are broken, and she's been bitten." Carlisle said quietly.
"What do we do?" Edward asked.
"She is still breathing, but I don't know for how long. We can try to suck out the venom, but I think it's gone too far. The only options we are to turn her now, or let nature take its course."
"There has to be another way; we can't turn her yet." Edward started arguing with Carlisle.
"There isn't one." Carlisle said as calmly as he could.
Alice slowly leaned closer to Bella as Edward and Carlisle were arguing. Alice tilted Bella's head back carefully, and pushed the hair out of her face.
"I'm sorry this had to happen now. I love you." Alice whispered into Bella's ear.
Edward and Carlisle turned their attention to Alice; who had just bitten into Bella's neck.
"What are you doing!" Edward shouted, as he tried to pull Alice off of her.
Emmett, who was now finished destroying the new borns, grabbed hold of Edward and kept him back.
"We don't have a choice." Carlisle said as he looked up at Edward.
Alice slowly bit Bella on the neck, and both of her arms. Her blood was everything she imagined, and more. Alice wished she had gone hunting before, because she didn't want to stop drinking.
"Alice, that's enough. You're going to kill her if you go too far." Carlisle placed a hand on Alice's shoulder.
Alice wasn't stopping.
"Please Alice." Esme said as she approached her.
It took Alice all of her strength to pull away from Bella. The taste was so incredible.
Alice was able to get off Bella for a second, but once she was off her she wanted to go back. She jumped for Bella again, but Carlisle stopped her from going further.
"You need to go clear your head. Go hunt, and come back when you can think straight." Carlisle commanded.
Alice nodded her head, and Jasper helped her out of the house. He had to leave to, because it was just as enticing for him as it was for her.
In fact, everyone cleared out of the house except for Carlisle, and Jacob. Edward was told to go outside with the rest of them even though he argued he could handle the smell.
The other Cullen's took all of the limbs and body parts of the vampires, and began burning them in little piles across the lawn.
"I don't want to leave Bella." Alice said to Jasper.
"You need to go hunt; her blood is too strong for you to resist." Jasper said.
"But Bella needs me. I should have protected her better."
"She'll be fine. Carlisle is taking care of her right now. She isn't a fragile human anymore; she's one of us."
"Not yet; she isn't." Alice replied.
This is when Edward came into the conversation.
"Why did you bite her? You didn't have to do that." Edward said coldly.
"It had to happen. She would have died." Alice responded.
"You don't know that." Edward spat out.
"You don't know that she would have lived." Alice retorted.
"Calm down. What's done is done; there's no going back now." Jasper said in a calm manner.
Alice and Edward relaxed, but only because Jasper made them.
Esme walked up to Edward and Alice, and she both looked at them sympathetically. Alice looked as if she was going to have a nervous breakdown, and Edward just looked really angry; as usual.
"Come on Alice; you need to go hunting." Esme said softly as she brushed her hand against Alice's arm.
"What about Bella? What's going on with her?" Alice asked concerned.
"Carlisle is taking care of her. You should go hunt now, so you can see her after Carlisle is finished cleaning her up." Esme suggested.
Alice sighed deeply, but she agreed that it was best to go hunting now so she could get back when Bella was clean.
"Edward, you should also go hunting." Esme said.
Alice stopped in her tracks. She didn't want to go hunting with Edward; not at all.
"Don't worry Alice; I'm not going with you." Edward said.
Alice couldn't help but to smile in relief. She needed time without Edward; he was too much of a hassle for her.
"Would you like me to come with you, Alice?" Esme offered.
"If you need to hunt; then I wouldn't mind your company." Alice said as she began walking towards the forest.
Esme was soon by her side, "I haven't hunted in a while either."
"I don't want to go far from Bella." Alice stated.
"Don't worry; we will stay close to home." Esme patted Alice on the back.
Alice and Esme continued into the forest; searching for a quick meal. They had come upon a group of deer, and decided that this was enough for now. The two of them were able to take out the whole lot in just a minute.
Once Alice's eyes turned back to their golden color; she was eager to get back to the house.
Esme happily followed alongside Alice.
"Thank you for coming with me." Alice said as they were walking back.
"You're welcome. I just thought it would be nice if you had some company; besides Edward." Esme smiled.
"I'm glad to be away from Edward. He's been too much for me to handle lately."
"I would think so." Esme said quietly.
It was silent for a while. It was kind of peaceful after all the screaming that went on earlier that day, but Alice had something on her mind that she wanted to ask Esme.
"How do you feel about my relationship with Bella?" Alice asked as casually as she could.
"I don't see anything wrong with it. In fact, I think you and Bella have a good thing together."
"But what about Edward? I kind of stole Bella away from him."
"You didn't steal her Alice. She chose you over Edward. She made a choice, and she picked you."
Alice smiled at Esme's words. It was nice knowing that she was accepting of their relationship.
"What are we going to do now?" Alice continued.
"We will handle the situation the best we can. I don't really know what's going to happen; we just have to see how Bella turns out."
"I should have protected Bella better." Alice said sadly.
"There was nothing you could do Alice. You protected her the best you could; she was only out of your sight for a second when it happened. There's no control over that."
Alice nodded her head, and the two of them approached the house.
The last of the bodies were being burned by Emmett and Rosalie. Emmett was poking the remains of the bodies with a stick and laughing; as Rosalie was bringing more body limbs to throw in the fire. Rosalie was dragging Victoria's head across the lawn by her hair, and then she tossed it into the fire. Emmett poked Victoria's head with the stick a couple of times, and then laughed as her head caught on fire.
"Thank you Esme." Alice stopped her before they reached the house.
"You're welcome Alice. Anytime you need advice, or just want some company; I'm always here for you." Esme hugged Alice tightly, and Alice returned the gesture.
"Now let's go and see how our soon to be new Bella is doing." Esme suggested.
Alice nodded her head, and walked inside with Esme.
A/N: There you go. If you think of it this way; Bella does die. Vampires hearts don't beat... So next chapter: The process of becoming a vampire, and regretful thoughts from someone. It might take a while for next chapter, finals for college are coming up, and it's going to take up a lot of my time. I will keep this story going though.
