APOV
I was out hunting with Jasper, Carlisle and Esme. But Jasper and I were the only ones who were hunting right now. Carlisle and Esme were mourning together, sitting on a boulder less than a mile away. Jasper was a few feet behind me, draining a mountain lion about the size of his body. Mountain lion. They were Edward's favorite.
Poor Bella. I can't even imagine having to go through what she's dealing with. First he left her claiming he didn't love her, now this. I should've gone with her, maybe then he wouldn't be dead. I should've covered up my exposed skin, carried Bella on my back, and raced through the crowds. Stupid, Alice. Stupid, stupid! What was I thinking? We could've prevented this.
I froze as a vision came to me.
Bella was in Edward's room with Rosalie and Emmett. They looked… happy, surprised. But whom was the other figure sitting on the bed holding Bella?
I focused on this familiar person. It didn't take too long to figure it out. If it weren't for the fact that my heart hadn't beat in over 100 years, I'd have a heart attack.
"Jasper," I whispered. I raised my voice a little more. "Jasper. JASPER!"
Jasper was standing in front of me, eyes wide, hands firmly gripping my shoulders.
"Alice! What is it? What did you see?"
I couldn't form a complete sentence. "It- he- but- and- I- "
He shook me lightly. "Focus, Alice!"
I closed my eyes and shook my head.
"Carlisle. Esme," I called softly.
They were suddenly beside us, their grave faces curious and alert.
"Alice?" Carlisle asked.
"This isn't right. It can't be…" I trailed off and looked at each of their panicked faces. "We have to go back."
"Alice, what was in the vision?" Jasper nearly growled.
A smile spread slowly across my face.
