Author's Note: Sorry for the delay guys. I have a ton of stuff going on. Thanks for the reviews and enjoy!

"Alice?" I asked as Paul put me on the ground. I didn't want to get my hopes up thinking that by best friend had actually come home. If she wasn't real, it would hurt too much.

"Hi Bella," she said rather nervously. This was unusual Alice behavior. There wasn't any running and bouncing around. This made me even more skeptical of her presence. I tentatively reached a hand out and touched hers, she was solid, she was real. Without thinking, I jumped into her arms and started to cry. Her cold, thin arms wrapped around me and I knew if she was human, she would be crying too.

"I missed you so much," I choked out.

"I missed you too," she said as she pulled away. I looked into her eyes and saw that they were pitch black.

"Oh Alice! I'm so sorry, this must be so hard for you," I said backing up against Paul. I wasn't scared for me; I was worried about Alice's pain. I could only imagine how much it hurt.

"I'm fine Bella, I just needed to come and see you," she explained. I furrowed my eyebrows together and let her continue, "I had a vision of you at a funeral and I didn't understand what was going on because I saw us there. When I say us, I mean myself, Carlisle, Esme, Emmett, Rosalie, and Jazz." I noticed she didn't say anything about Edward, not that I cared at the moment.

"Nobody died," Paul said.

"Wait Alice, I thought you couldn't see werewolves," I said.

"I can't," she said. She put her hand to her head like she had a headache, not that that is possible. It was such a human thing to do.

"Then how can you see me and what I am or what I'm going to become?" I asked. Alice excused herself for Carlisle to explain.

"She must hunt," he said and I nodded. "I have a theory as to why she can see you and not the other wolves. Bella you are not technically a Quileute werewolf. In fact, you are not a werewolf at all. I'm sure Billy Black or someone told you the legends about what you are?"

"Sam told me first but yes, I have the general idea," I said. Paul's arms wrapped around my waist and I loved listening to the sound of his heartbeat.

"Please tell me what you know," he said. Paul's arms tensed but Carlisle wouldn't hurt me.

"I'm the Bella Luna, beautiful moon. They said I would take the form of the thing that I love the most. I'm supposed to be white but I'm brown when I phase. I'm a wolf because Paul's a wolf. I know that supposedly there's a war between wolves and vampires about to happen and that whose ever side I go to has the advantage. I'm a bridge between two worlds or something." I finished and watched Carlisle's face turn even paler if that was possible.

"That solidifies my theory," he said and then explained. "I believe Alice can see you because you're not actually a werewolf, you're something else entirely." That's when I got lost in a vision.

Charlie was going out into his cruiser. Edward was standing behind it, ready to strike at the most opportune time. When Charlie looked down to get his keys, Edward sank his teeth into his neck.

"Babe! Bells, come on answer me!" My eyes flashed open and I saw Alice sprint into the room, eyes now golden brown.

"CHARLIE!" We said at the same time. Without hesitation, Alice and Carlisle bolted out the door with me and Paul close at their heels.

"Don't phase babe, you don't have it under control!" Paul said but my body was already shaking and I was my other half once more. "Maybe you do," he said and phased to run with me. We were faster then the Cullen's and made it there in record time. I sniffed the air but didn't smell Edward, I assumed he would smell like he always did just not as delicious.

"He's not here," all four of us said. The Cullen's said it out loud; Paul and I said it in our minds. Paul phased back and threw on the shorts he had thoughtfully tied to his leg. I on the other hand shredded the clothes that I assumed Alice put on me. She understood why I didn't phase back and was to my room and back before I could blink an eye with a tank top and sweat pants.

"Do you how to phase back?" Paul asked but I was already running behind a tree to phase in private. I thought about Paul and how his lips felt on mine and how my heart races whenever he looks at me. I had barely finished the thought before I was on two legs again. I threw my clothes on and went to join the group outside my house. Thank God it was overcast.

"Bella, how did you know the same thing I did at the exact same time?" Alice asked when I walked over to them.

"Yeah, about that…" I said.

"Bella," she said. I looked at the pixie like vampire and saw my best friend. She wasn't like Jake or Angela or even Emily. Alice and I had a relationship different from everything else.

"I can see the future too," I said. Carlisle and Alice looked shocked, Paul wasn't really paying attention.

"Sam wants me," Paul whispered in my ear after a minute.

"Then go," I said giving him a kiss and pushing him toward the forest.

"Will you be safe," he asked me. You could tell how nervous he was leaving me with the two vampires.

"We won't hurt her mutt," Alice said venomously.

"Alice!" Carlisle and I said together.

"Sorry bad habit," she said with a shrug of her shoulders. Paul didn't look happy but he kissed my forehead and ran to join the Alpha.

"Bella, let me make sure I heard you correctly. You said you can see the future?" Carlisle asked curiously.

"Yes," I said softly. I wasn't embarrassed at all about what I had become or what I was going to become but I was nervous about making them leave again.

"And Paul is your imprint?" he asked for clarification.

"Yes," I answered. Carlisle smiled and opened his arms.

"This is long overdue," he said. I smiled and hugged the vampire that came to be like another father to me. I let go and smiled.

"I've missed you all so much," I said getting all choked up.

"As we have missed you," he said. Alice came over and wrapped me up in another hug.

"Bella! You've grown so much! We need to go shopping immediately. Wow, you're so gorgeous! Not that you weren't before, but you know you look… so not pale." I laughed and hugged my best friend again.

"Come on in everyone, I'm sure Charlie will be happy to see you," I said.

"I would like to Bella but I must go home and inform the rest of the family of your safety," Carlisle said.

"Alright," I said, giving him one more hug, "Thank you for everything." I finished sincerely.

"Of course," he said and then he was gone. With my new senses I could see him running faster than anything I had ever actually seen.

"Let's go see Charlie!" Alice said happily. I laughed as she tugged me along into my house. Charlie was in the kitchen, trying and failing to make himself food. "Hi Charlie!" Alice practically sang. Charlie whipped around and saw me and Alice and nearly dropped the can of soup he was holding.

"Alice? Bella?"

"Hi Dad," I said walking over to take the offending soup away from him. He practically blushed and gave me a quick hug. "Go sit down, I'll make this." He smiled and gave Alice a hug too before going in to watch what I was sure was some kind of game. I busied myself with looking for the right pot when Alice started talking. I really didn't have much to say to her now that I had thought about it.

"I'm so sorry for just showing up like this Bella," she said. I didn't respond, I knew that she had more to say. "I didn't want to leave but when Edward came home that day he wasn't taking no for an answer. He just wanted to leave as soon as possible. I've never seen him so-"

"Please stop Alice," I said, slamming the pot down on the stove with more force than I intended to use. The pixie vampire stopped moving altogether. "I don't want to hear it," I said.

"But Bella," she said making a move to come and comfort me. I held a hand up to stop her.

"Alice, I love you dearly. You're the sister I never had. When you guys left, I was just as upset that you were gone."

"Bella, he didn't want to hurt you, none of us did," she explained. I held my hand up again to stop her.

"Didn't mean to hurt me? Alice, he left me in the woods, alone, at night, by myself. Doesn't sound like he cared too much about me. He BROKE me Alice. I don't know if you get that. I was a zombie for months, if I got up and went to school it was a good day. Miserable isn't even a strong enough term. I don't think you really understand the scars he left. Charlie was about to send me to some institution because I was practically catatonic. And then Jake happened. Jake put me back together, I was breathing again Alice. He is, was, and always will be my BEST friend. I was becoming more and more human and then guess what? He left me too. Want to talk about how that felt? That was the second person who told me that he'd never leave. He wouldn't talk to me and I was back to where I started before he helped me back up. So I got mad. Then I went over to his house and that's when I slapped Paul and the son of a bitch imprinted on me. So you know what Alice. Thanks for everything, thanks for up and leaving me here, but you know what. I want to thank Edward more than anyone because if he hadn't left me to die that night, I wouldn't have met the love of my life. Then, as if karma wasn't a big enough bitch I turn into some legendary animal thing and now I got paws and a tail. So, the long and short of this is Alice, I don't need him and as much as I love you, I don't NEED you anymore? See the difference?" My body was shaking, I didn't know where all that anger came from but it felt SO good to get it all out. I took a few breaths to calm myself.

"I'm so sorry," she said covering her face. I knew that if she could, she'd be crying her eyes out. I turned my head to the living room when Charlie called my name.

"What Dad?" I called back looking at Alice trying to cry on the kitchen chair.

"Phone," he said. I ran out to get it and let out a sigh of relief when I heard the voice on the other line.

"Hey girl," Emily said.

"Hi Em, what's up?" I asked.

"Uh," she said confused, "It's 5 o'clock, are you going to get Angela soon and head on down?"

"DAMNIT!" I shouted louder then I intended to.

"Forget?" She asked with what I could hear was a smile on her face.

"Yeah and I have a Cullen in my kitchen," I said but then I heard a whoosh. I went back to where I left Alice and saw an empty chair and a piece of paper. "Maybe I don't," I said as I picked up the note.

Bella, I'm so sorry. You're my sister, my best friend. I will do anything to gain your trust back, I'm going to do it. You'll see. Have fun tonight, hopefully I'll see you soon. Love, Alice.

"A Cullen!?" She practically screamed into the phone.

"Yeah," I replied.

"Which one?" she asked skeptically.

"Alice but she left," I explained.

"Oh, well you're going to have to tell me that story later," she said.

"Deal," I said.

"Alright, well go get ready! You have to get Angela in an hour!" I laughed and hung up after saying bye and ran up to my room. I hadn't slept there in awhile and smiled at the pictures hanging on the walls. There were some of me and Jake and the kids from school. There was one of Edward. I took that one and threw it in the trash before looking curiously at the half open window. I wouldn't have left it like that when I left for La Push. I pushed it aside and looked through the clothes that I had left here. After deliberation I knew none of them would fit. I ran back down to the phone and dialed Angela's number.

"Hello," her voice was soft.

"Hey Ang, it's Bella," I said.

"Oh! Hi Bella! Are you alright?" She asked. Always the mother of the group.

"Yes, I'm fine, are you coming to the bonfire tonight?" I asked.

"Yup," she said cheerfully.

"Alright, well would you mind if I picked you up in like five minutes? I left all my clothes in La Push?"

"Of course, come right over," she said.

"You're the best Ang," I said before hanging up. I practically flew down the stairs and grabbed my keys. "Bye Dad! I'm going back to Jakes."

"Bye Bells, have fun! Call sometime tomorrow."

"Will do!" I called as I ran outside. I jumped into the truck and went to the Webber's house. Angela was waiting on the front steps for me and climbed in as soon as I pulled up to her house.

"Hi Bella!" she said leaning over to give me a hug. I responded in kind.

"Hey Angela, you look cute," I said admiring her outfit.

"Thanks," she said blushing a little. The girl was so modest.

"Alright, let's go," I said as I drove back to my favorite place on Earth.

An hour later, Emily, Angela, and I were dressed and crammed into Emily's kitchen. We had all baked something and were now just waiting for them to come out of the oven. Emily told Angela all about Sam minus the whole turning into the dog thing and I told her about Paul.

"Wait, you slapped him the first time you saw him?" Angela said between fits of giggles.

"Yeah, he didn't like that too much," I said smirking at the memory.

"I would think not," the raven haired girl said.

Emily was smirking too, "You're lucky Bella, anyone else and he would have beaten them to a pulp on the spot." Wow was that true, my boy had a little bit of a temper.

"Am I allowed to come in?" Paul asked shielding his eyes from all the estrogen in the room.

"Speak of the devil and he shall appear," Emily said as Paul lowered his arms and came to put them around me.

"Oh, so I'm the devil now?" he asked playfully after giving me a kiss.

"Yes," I said. He pretended to look ashamed but I knew he wasn't. "Oh by the way, Paul this is my friend Angela from Forks, Angela this is my boyfriend Paul." He smiled and shook her hand. She was grinning too and I was almost giddy with the knowledge of what was in store for her later.

"So, want to go down?" He asked the three of us.

"I'm going to make Sam help me bring this stuff down but you three go ahead." Emily smiled at us and we left the kitchen. Paul was holding my hand and Angela's arm was linked through mine.

"So Sam's letting people bring friends this time?" Paul asked skeptically. I smirked next to him and squeezed his hand.

"Let's just say that Jake's going to have a big night," I said. I laughed at his facial expression. "Get it?" I asked.

"Yeah," he said still dumbfounded.

"Get what?" Angela asked.

"Nothing," I said quickly. "Hey, I forgot something at Jake's can we stop there real quick?" They nodded and we took a detour. I ran into the house and grabbed my camera to bring down to the beach with us. Nobody ever seemed to get pictures of these things and they should. I came back out to Angela and Paul talking. I smiled and flashed a picture before either could object. Paul, being the ham he was, posed for another. I shook my head laughing and we made out way down to the beach.

Paul was again holding my hand and I grabbed Angela's and squeezed it lightly when I saw the bonfire. Paul saw some of the guys and gave me the puppy dog eyes. I shoved him playfully in their direction and he immediately got a football thrown at him. I was literally bouncing in anticipation.

"They're all really close down here huh?" Angela said looking around.

"Yeah, we're literally all one big family," I said proudly and reverently. She smiled and I saw Emily. We walked over to her and I gave her a hug.

"When!?" She scream/whispered into my ear.

"When Billy tells the legends," I said.

"Let's do that right now!" She said and I laughed. The three of us grabbed some food before the boys would come eat it all. They ran over for literally two seconds, scarfed down an absurd amount of food and went back to their game.

"Oh my goodness, do they always eat that much?" Angela asked astonished.

I laughed, "You have NO idea. It's so hard to feed them." She nodded still unbelieving when Billy wheeled his chair over.

He sighed, "Someone's gotta get those boys over here." I smiled and whistled as loud as I could. They stopped and turned at the sound like the dogs they were.

"Get over here guys!" I called. They all ran over pushing and shoving each other. I felt warm arms wrap around me and I squealed in delight.

"What?" Paul breathed into my ear.

"Watch," I said and I pointed to Jake. He was staring at my girl at my side with a dazed look in his eyes. They were full of so much love, so much passion it was hard to watch. It was the most beautiful thing in the world and I was so happy I had someone to look at me like that. Angela was looking at him too with the same emotions with added confusion.

"Aww! Jakey finally imprinted!" Embry called. I heard Jared slap him upside the head and saw Jake still looking at Angela. I reached over and squeezed her hand for reassurance and pushed her a little toward him. He starting striding toward her, and I heard both heartbeats speed up, miss a beat, and start pumping in time.
