A/N Just a response to one of my reviewers. I just wanted to clarify something in case anyone else questioned it as well. This crossover is between True Blood the HBO Series, not the Sookie Stackhouse novels. I have only begun reading them so I am far from being able to write fan fiction for them. So this is strictly Twilight, the novels and True Blood, the HBO series. Sorry for any confusion.

So it had been decided. I was going to be a vampire. After all this time, I hadn't even thought about being turned anymore. But I guess now that I thought about the situation it made sense. I mean Bill is a vampire, and I wanted to be with him. But something was missing. I am happy for the first time in a long time, I finally shared myself with someone entirely, Bill was amazing. But did I want forever with him?

I mean I did with Edward years ago, but I was so young, did I even know what forever meant?

And did Edward really lie to me? All these years I believed he hadn't wanted me, and he did. I realized that slowly the anger was dissipating and a warmth filled my heart. He did love me but he wanted me to be safe so he left. But here he was now offering to change me, which is all I had wanted from him years ago. Confusion was setting in, my emotions were a jumble.

What do I do?

I really did love Bill, but part of me would always love Edward. Now knowing that he did love me it made things harder. It was easier to be angry at him, but now I just am confused.

I decided to put it out of my mind for now and set out to go to work.

Her scent was still the same, wonderfully torturous. She looked beautiful and happy, so that solidified my decision to make her my offer. Now it was done and all I could do was wait. Would she call and would she accept?

"Edward Cullen?"

I turned and saw him. The man who had stolen my Bella's heart.

"Bill Compton, hello there."

The red in his eyes was prominent, even if he drank True Blood now he had indeed fed on humans for a long time prior. But there was something else there, threatening and angry.

"I must insist you stay away from Bella. I understand you have a history with her, but her future is with me now. I will do anything I must to protect her from being hurt. So please respect my wishes and stay away from her."

A low growl escaped my throat.

"I will respect Bella's wishes. If Bella wants us around or not it is her decision not yours. And I believe she would not appreciate you getting involved. She is a very stubborn woman and makes her own choices. Now if you would excuse me sir."

Bill crouched down angrily and I did the same. If it was a fight he wanted it was a fight he'd get. I wouldn't kill him for that would hurt Bella, but I would make him pay for not caring enough for Bella to stay away and let her lead a normal life.

Then I realized, he was no better for her than I was.

What was I thinking?

If he truly loved her like I did he would want to save her soul from eternal damnation. If the future was decided and she would be turned no matter what, could I be better for her than this man? At least I tried to save her soul, this man was just being selfish.

I relaxed a bit and stood up while he looked at me surprised.

"You know what Bill, you have just helped me more than you could know."

And with that I ran home leaving Bill speechless and puzzled where we had stood.

I got home quickly to Alice standing out on the porch with a smile a mile long.

"Edward, you did it, you brought back my visions of her. Nothing has been decided yet but the visions are half in your favor now and half in his. Whatever you say and do, be careful and tread lightly. You must win her back Edward, she was always destined to be part of our family. In the visions of him and her, she is like him. But with you and her, she's like us, sparkling, golden eyes and beautiful."

As she spoke to me I saw the visions in her head as she recounted them. The only one I wanted to focus in on was of her and I. She truly did look beautiful. I would make up for leaving all those years ago. I would fight for her, and I would win her back. I will give her choices and let her decide instead of deciding for her like I have.

A phone ringing brought me out of my thoughts and I looked at Alice as she answered. If possible the smile on her face widened even more.

"Bella, I'm so happy to hear from you. After you get off work? I would love to, I'll meet you at Merlottes then."

While I walked to work I decided to call Alice. I had treated her pretty poorly the last time I saw her and wanted to start over again. Plus no matter what she was still and always would be my best friend.

I couldn't really talk to Sookie about vampire stuff yet, and Sam was, well he is a man and beside, he's pretty busy with Sookie.

My shift passed by as usual. And soon enough my shift was ending. I saw Alice enter Merlottes and take a seat at the bar. She smiled and waved at me. I smiled back and held up a finger to indicate I'd just be another minute. I went back to clock out and took a couple of deep breaths to relax myself before walking back out.

I grabbed the seat by Alice and she pulled me into a hug.

"Bella thanks for calling. And believe it or not you surprised me, which you know is hard to do. You must of called me on a whim but I'm glad you did."

"Alice, I know I was pretty cold to you the last time I saw you and I felt really bad. It's been pretty hard seeing you all again. Opened a few old wounds, but all in all I'm just glad to have my best friend back."

She smiled at me, "So, Bill huh?"

I felt the blush warm my cheeks.

"Damn vampire and your visions."

"Well I've been having a lot of visions lately, but you said you didn't want to know so I my lips are sealed." She giggles and pretended to lock her lips and throw away the key.

I laughed too, but I was curious.

"Alice, Edward did tell me about one vision that never changes."

"Yes Bella it is true, you are going to be a vampire. There is no path that changes this outcome, except what kind you are to become. And I have to tell you after years of living in the gloomiest places, the sun is something to be missed. It's great now we can do and go anywhere, and we don't have to keep pretending to be human and go to school over and over again."

"Wow, I cannot believe it. So I guess you also know about Edward's offer? Alice between you and me, I don't know if I want to be changed anymore. I wanted that years ago with Edward. And I do love Bill, but forever? I just don't know."

"Then you might not love him as deeply as you loved Edward."

I had to interrupt her, "Alice, I was so young, what did I know about love back then? Maybe I'm just more realistic now, I don't know."

Alice giggled to herself.

"What is it Alice?"

"You said you don't want to know anything, so I am keeping it to myself."

"Come on then, you cannot just laugh for no reason and not expect me to be curious. Ughhhh...what the hell what did you see?"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

"A hundred percent sure?" She was laughing hysterically while I was just getting more and more exasperated, "Yes Alice, come on, what did you see?"

"You still love Edward, not saying you do not love Bill too, but listen, your future has two possible paths. Edward has decided he is going to fight for you. And before you object, which I know you will, nothing you say will deter him. In one path you are with him happy, sparkling in the sun together. Bill will not give up either, down that path you and him are together but in darkness. You would be like him. Bella you have to realize, Edward left because he loved you too much so he let you go so you could live a normal life, but that is never going to happen for you. But at least he tried to give you a normal life, while Bill just wants you for himself no matter what might happen to you. I mean I am biased I want you as a sister more than a best friend, but I do believe Edward is the right one for you. He never stopped loving you. Not saying Bill is wrong for you, but has he ever thought how you might feel in the future? You can either become like him, and never see the sun again. If you stayed human, which now we know wont happen but he doesn't, you can never wake up next to him, you will age while he stays young forever. Think about it Bella, all Edward did was try to give you what he could never have himself."

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Edward was going to fight for me? I couldn't help the calming warmth that spread through my body.

"Alice, what am I supposed to do?"

"Just let them argue their sides and then you make a decision based on how you feel. I cannot tell you what to choose, it wouldn't be fair to you. I hope to have you as a sister one day, but if not I'm just glad to have you back in my life at all."

Alice and I hung out for a few hours, now just talking about our lives. What we had done and where we had been. But in my mind all I could think about was what she had seen. I couldn't help feeling happy that Edward wanted to fight for me, that he still loved me after all this time. But I was falling in love with Bill too, and we had shared such an amazing experience together. And bottom line, I will be a vampire, no matter what.

So I could have Edward forever like I dreamed of for so many years, or Bill forever which was a totally new future to think about.
