I am so sorry for not updating in a while. I tried to sooner, but I didn't have time. NOW it is time to see who's at the door! Read and Review please!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………..

I walked in to greet two male vampires. None of them seemed to be Edward. They had golden eyes and were pale, paler than me! One of them was sprawled out on the sofa while the other was leaning with one foot on the wall. The vampire on the couch was gigantic! He had short, brown curly hair. He wore a goofy grin on his face that made him look like a seven-year old. The other one was also tall, maybe taller, and more leonine but he was also well built. He had bites all over his exposed skin, and had golden hair. The first vampire jumped up and ran to me.

"HELLO!" He screamed. I was startled by the sudden approach. I waved back, a little intimidated.

"Emmett, please, you're scaring her." The other scolded him. A wave of calmness spread through my body. He smiled politely and spoke again, "I'm Jasper, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Coraline. And as you already know, that's Emmett" he gestured to the big vampire. That took me by confusion.

"How'd you…how'd you know my name? Do I even know you? What's going on?" I asked timidly, looking around to see any more people.

"Relax." He responded. I obeyed automatically. Then it kicked in.

"You're empathic?" I asked. "Awesome."

"Yes. But it's not as 'cool' as it seems." He frowned.

Emmett boomed laughing. "So emotional and sensitive. Such a ladies man, I'll tell ya!" Jasper glared at him.

Jasper turned to me and continued. "You know our brother, Edward. Well we are the Cullen boys. Alice saw you and sent me and Emmett to check." Edward told me about Alice already.

"Yeah, she saw you in a forest…and an explosion…and fire and uh… people dying." Emmett continued. Jasper elbowed him to stop.

I broke into tearless sobs. I didn't want to kill. I hated this talent. This is a killer's dream, to burn and kill innocents. What am I supposed to do with this? Aro said that this was a gift. If I remember humans and shopping, I can return a gift. This is not a gift; this is a CURSE! I rejected all the calmness that Jasper was sending me.

"Aww come on, don't crryyy- well sob!!" Emmett pleaded. He walked towards me again and starting dancing. I couldn't help but burst out laughing at his attempt to dance. "Aha! There we go. NO ONE can resist the Emmett dance." He chuckled.

Even Jasper was laughing. "Well…uh yeah, Alice sent me to calm you in situations like this. We all know what you can do." He explained. "She sent Emmett just in case an attack or something." He quickly added.

I realized something and gasped. "Does Edward know about what happened?" I almost screamed.

Jasper sensed my worries and shook his head. "Not yet, but Alice said if she is correct, at about 12:30 pm today in New York, he'll find it in the news."

I froze. What will Edward think or do? Would he trust me anymore? Would he still leave the protection of Bella in my hands or send me away?

"Please, Coraline, don't worry about anything, Alice and I are handling this." I felt calm again.

"Hmm…Coral-lean. That's how you pronounce it right? Coral-lean? OH! You are now officially called CORAL!" Emmett screamed. I just looked at him weirdly.

"Uh…sure?" My comment sounded more like a question.

"SO…" Emmett continued again. "Alice said she saw you with someone after the accident. But it was blurry. So! Who was this person miss Coral?" He pretended to scold me. "Alice says when its blurry, its usually one of the wolves from the reservation. Mind telling me who this is young lady?"

I smiled teasingly at him. "That's for me to know and for you to find out" I said mysterious. I skipped to the stairs. Jasper laughed.

Emmett guffawed. "Don't you dare walk away from me young lady, you get back here this instant! That's it! GO TO YOUR ROOM". He called.

I ignored him and turned to Jasper. "Your wife here is very annoying Mr. Cullen. She needs to shut her trap before I tackle her." Jasper and I chuckled.

"Be my guest." He sent waves of encouragement. I laughed and turned to look at Emmett's wide grin.

"Maybe later, I have to go back to Bella. She fainted and I brought her back." Emmett chuckled lightly as he dimmed into a soft expression.

"Same old Bella." He chuckled. Jasper was silent behind me and I didn't have to be empathic to know he was feeling sad and guilty.

It was very awkward at that moment. "Well, it's your home, so I don't need to tell you what to do. I'll be back soon." I promised and flew out of the door.

Bella POV

I was waiting anxiously for Coraline to come back. Her note was still in my hand. There was so many questions that I wanted to ask. I mostly wanted to ask who was that guy who pulled her away. I know she didn't let him; she was reluctant. Who had the strength to do that though? He looked like one of the guys from La Push. But mostly, what did he say to her? And aren't the Quileute Indians and vampires supposed to be enemies?

I kept looking over to my alarm clock; waiting for her return. It was only 11:33. I sat up on my bed rocking back and forth. I was getting impatient. She still has a half an hour. But what do I know; maybe something came up.

I got off of my bed and ran downstairs. I took my hiking boots— it's a good thing I actually took some stuff from the store—and my jacket and went outside to my truck. I needed to go to my meadow again. But there was something in my head that was nagging me not to go. I shook it off and continued driving. Before I started heading in the woods, there were swooshing sounds from all over. I took a deep breath and decided it was the wind. I stepped in the dimmed forest, still looking around suspiciously. I had a feeling that I wasn't alone.

After an hour of tripping, I finally found my destination. I took a deep breath as the hole in my chest stretched itself out. I sighed; this was to never get old. I sunk to the ground and put my head between my knees. I suddenly had another Edward flashback:

"How do you feel?" he asked.

I couldn't be sure how I felt when my head was spinning so crazily. "Dizzy, I think."

"Put your head between your knees."

I tried hat, and it helped a little. I breathed in and out slowly, keeping my head very still. I felt him sitting beside me. The moments passed, and eventually I found that I could raise my head. There was a hollow ringing sound in my ears.

"I guess that wasn't the best idea," he mused.

I tried to be positive, but my voice was weak. "No, it was very interesting."

"Hah! You're as white as a ghost—no, you're as white as me!"

"I think I should have closed my eyes."

"Remember that next time."

"Next time!" I groaned.

He laughed, his mood still radiant.

"Show-off," I muttered.

"Open your eyes, Bella," he said quietly.

And he was right there, his face so close to mine. His beauty stunned m mind—it was too much, an excess I couldn't grow accustomed to.

"I was thinking, while I was running…" He paused.

"About not hitting trees, I hope."

"Silly Bella," he chuckled. "Running is second nature to me, it's not something I have to think about."

"Show-off," I muttered again.

He smiled.

"No," he continued, "I was thinking there was something I wanted to try." And he took my face in his hands again…

I cringed away from the memory; the hole dug deeper. I will never forget that day no matter how hard I try. That was the day Edward first brought me here, and kissed me. I could still feel his icy marble lips on mine. I winced. He would never come back; he didn't want me. He didn't love me anymore.

I didn't realize I was crying until my vision was blurry. I tried wiping them away but they were impossible. Just then, through my blurry vision, I saw a tall figure stand about twenty feet away. It was a man. He looked hesitant. My vision started to clear up and I can see his figure. It couldn't be; Edward.

My mouth parted and my eyes grew wide. I forced myself to blink the remainder of my tears. If I blinked, he could be gone. To my surprise, he still remained there. I slowly stood up, not wanting to scare him off again.

"E-Edward?" My voice stuttered and broke. It thrilled me to say his name aloud.

He just stood there like a stone. He was staring at me with coal black eyes. He was thirsty. It appeared that he wasn't breathing. He took a deep breath and winced. "Bella, run as far as you can from me. Please just listen to me… I-I don't want to hurt you…" he spoke the words so quickly, I could barely listen. His voice was strained.

Although I hated to see him in pain, anger crept inside of me. Hurt me? He didn't want to hurt me? "Excuse me? Did you just say you didn't want to hurt me!"? I laughed bitterly. "Don't you think it's a little too late for that? YOU ALREADY HURT ME EDWARD!" With that said, tears poured down my face again.

His face was twisted in guilt and agony. "…Please Bella, I'm begging you." He pleaded; I didn't know what to do. I suddenly knew what was happening, this was what Edward feared. He was the shark and I was the seal. My breath stopped short. He looked like he was going to snap. Edward tried to fight the thirst, but I knew that he would be defeated. I couldn't get my legs to work with my mind. My heart screamed at me to not go, Edward was right in front of me, my love…my life.

I was right, the thirst took over, and he crouched down looking like a lion and lunged at me.

"EDWARD NO!!" I heard a high-pitched voice. It sounded a lot like Coraline. As soon as she spoke the words I was thrown to a tree while Edward was pinned across from me. But soon, everything went black.

I woke up baffled. I felt lost; misplaced. Something happened and it was something bad. I still had yet to figure it out when it all came back to me, Coraline's frightened yet annoyed voice screaming his name, his blood-thirsty attack, hitting a tree; so much pain. But what was he doing here? Was I officially losing it? I shook my head to find out that it hurt terribly.

I stretched my arms out, bad idea. It was painful, very painful. I looked at my body, there were a couple of scrapes and cuts, but I couldn't see the source of the soreness. I stretched again and found that I had a headache and the ache was from my back. It wasn't until then when I noticed my surroundings.

I was in a strangely familiar room; only it looks like it hasn't been used in a few months. I was in the Cullen household, but not in his room. The walls that were left in this room was painted a pale yellow, it faced the west side of outside looking at part of the road and the beginning of the woods. The room was well organized, but there were tons of clothes and fashion drawings. This room had to belong to Alice, my old best friend.

I sighed and got up from the inappropriate bed and went downstairs. I didn't care with each step I made hurt like daggers. I was still uncertain about my "previous events". I highly doubted that Edward came back. Even if he did, he would still leave, I mean he almost attacked me! Not that I didn't do anything, I wouldn't care. What is a world without Edward Cullen's love? He still had my heart and never gave it back. But all of that didn't matter, he didn't want me nor did he love me. But what I was about to see next, I would have never seen this coming.

I walked into the living room expecting Coraline to rush to my side. Instead, what I saw broke my heart for several reasons. Edward was pacing furiously; his hands clutched his beautiful copper hair. After minutes of pacing, he would stop, scream and bang into the wall. The only thing I heard was a rock banging into a wall, leaving cracks as he slid down. If he were able to cry, there would be a pool of tears underneath him. All I could do was stare like an idiot. I urged to comfort him, to wrap my fragile arms around his stone body. I couldn't hold on to him; not only because of his iron strength but also because of his reaction. I was afraid. I knew from day one he wouldn't be interested in a girl like me. I was a weak, clumsy, uninteresting, stupid human girl. What was I thinking that lead me to believe that the Greek God before me could actually love me?

I felt a sob rise up through my chest, followed by endless tears. Edward's gaze lifted and held my eyes. There, I can see every emotion in his eyes; hurt, regret, guilt, sorrow, worry, self-hatred, anger, and a hint of love. What? Love? It couldn't be…

Edward slowly rose to his feet, carefully not to make me fear and hesitantly stepped towards me. He stopped until he was exactly a foot away. "Bella…" his voice was strained, but with sorrow this time. " I am so sorry." He whispered. His eyes burned with regret. I didn't like the space in between us, I wanted him to come closer, and I wanted to close the space in between us. I too, took a step forward, not speaking. I hung my head and closed my eyes, waiting for him to back away.

To my surprise, he didn't flinch or back away but instead; he came closer. His icy finger tilted my chin up and he smiled the famous crooked smile, I caught myself before hyperventilating. "Don't you think I had enough time without seeing your beautiful face. You have the name 'Bella' for a reason" Edward whispered to me. I blushed, probably five different shades. He chuckled lightly, his delicious breath splashing across my face. He leaned in and finally his marble lips met mine. Once again, he surprised me by deepening the kiss and I didn't realize I was moving backward until my back hit the wall. I barely flinched, even though it hurt like hell. I felt his body closing any space between us, for which I was thankful. Edward was my cure to everything, my medicine. Every dose of him would make me better.
