A/N: This is kind of short but it has a lot of fluffyness in it between Edward and Bella.

Bellas POV: Chapter 10

I watched as Edward paced around his room. He had carried me in here in a whirl wind of speed after him and Carlisle had talked about the Volturi, who ever they were.

I was sitting on his bed when I finally couldn't take it any more. "Edward," I whispered carefully, not wanting to agitate him further, "Who are the Volturi?"

"They're the head of the vampires, sort of the monarchs," he explained, "They make sure our secret stays hidden and that no human knows of our existence," he paused, glancing at me before continuing his pacing, "They feed off humans and try to persuade all gifted vampires to join their guard." I looked at him questioningly so he explained, "The Guard are their servants. They go on missions to kill vampires who threaten to reveal our secret. They are the ones who enforce the rules made by the monarchs."

I nodded and remembered to ask, "Well what would they want with me?" Edward turned to look at, the expression on his face asking if I was crazy.

"Did you not listen to a word Carlisle said?" He practically shouted, "Yiu're supposed to be a queen Bella! A vampiress! You're stronger than any other vampire I've met and you're still half human!" I flinched from his tone and immediately he regretted yelling, "Bella I'm sorry. I'm just so… Frustraited." He sighed and sat down beside me, pulling me into a hug.

"Edward!" Alice shouted frantically, barging into his room. Her face was contorted with anger and ear and her eyes said that she was frantic. Jasper slipped inside after her and she calmed down but turned to him and snapped, "Jasper I want to be afraid! Give my emotions back! They help me reason." He nodded and her anger and fear returned. I could feel it radiating off of her in waves and could feel it affecting me. I willed her to calm down, trying to tap into my empathic powers when she snapped again.

"Jasper! Give them back!"

"I didn't do it!" He exclaimed. Alice's glare turned to me and she asked, "Did you do it?"

"Sorry," I apologized, shrinking away from her glare, "It was making me scared for no reason."

"I'm sorry Bella!" She exclaimed, rushing over and pulling me into a hug. Edward sighed and looked at her, waiting for her to tell us what was going on.

"Ok, I saw the Volturi coming for Bella. And they take her Edward. They take her with them."

"What?!" Edward shouted. He rushed up and was standing right in front of Alice. She glared at him and his expression said he was sorry but he didn't back down.

"We know they're coming Edward, we can stop them," Alice assured him. He nodded and she smiled again, "Now take Bella home so she can go to school in the morning."

Edward sighed but nodded his head, scooping me into his arms and rushing out the door. I was in his car 5 seconds later and he was beside me, the engine already turned on. He backed out of the driveway, driving his normal, crazy speed. My hands gripped the leather of the seat as I watched the trees rush by in shapeless blurs, making me feel sick to my stomach.

Suddenly it all stopped, the car included. We were in front of my house and Edward was unclenching my hands from the seat gently. He pulled me up and escorted me to the door. I pulled my key out and unlocked, saying goodnight to Edward and rushing inside.

"I'm home!" I called to Charlie.

"Hey Bells, did you have fun?" He asked, his head popping in from the kitchen. "Yea. I'm going to bed, I'm tired," I lied. I was getting better at lying thank god.

"'Kay, night Bells." I waved goodnight to him and headed upstairs, taking a quick shower before running a brush through my hair and changing into my pajamas. I threw my dirty clothes into the hamper and walked into my room. I turned the lights off and slipped into bed, staring at my ceiling as I waited for sleep to over come me as usual.

I traced patterns on the ceiling and finally got bored, turning my attention to the darkness outside my window. I could make out the tree that was standing outside my window, it's leaves bending and swaying gracefully in the light drizzle and the accompanying wind.

I slipped into a light sleep, still able to hear everything going on around me. It was like I wasn't really sleeping, just lying with my eyes closed.

I heard my window give a whining creak and opened my eyes, resisting the urge to shoot out of my bed. I peered out of my almost closed eyelids around my room and saw Edward sitting in a rocking chair beside my bed. I made sure my heartbeat stayed slow and controlled my breathing to where I was almost taking no breaths at all. Edward sat there and watched me 'sleep.'

Why was he here? What did he want? Did he know I was awake? I pondered these question and then got an idea.

I concentrated as much as I could on reading his thoughts, suppressing a giggle once I heard them. She's more beautiful than she knows. I wish I could just hold her. I suppressed another giggle and imagined him getting up and laying on my bed, pulling me into his arms and cradling me gently. Before I could think any more about it he was, my head resting against his chest. I opened my eyes fully and peered up at him, smirking when I saw his bewildered expression.

"How did you-"

I cut him off, answering his question before he could finish it, "Apparently I have the power of imagination to." He smiled and said in a slightly mocking tone, "Now why would you imagine that?"

"Because you were thinking it," I replied, my own smirk once again playing across my lips. His eyes widened and I giggled, "I've been training myself."

"Well you've gotten good."

"Thank you."

"Now go to sleep love, you have school tomorrow." My mouth fell open as I stared at him in surprise. He furrowed his eye brow and asked in a worried tone, "What is it Bella?"

"You…" I trailed off, my surprise now affecting Edward. He shifted uncomfortably and I giggled before finishing, "You called me love."

He raised his eyebrow again and chuckled, smiling his crooked grin at me while kissing my forehead gently. "Bella you already know I love you, I'm just waiting for you to love me back."

I smiled up at him and replied in a whisper he would just barley be able to hear, "I love you to."
