Thank you all for your support. I can't believe that after such a long wait of updating this, people still like it. I love ALL my readers! Thank You Sooo Much! Your support means the world to me! I'm trying to update as fast as I possibly can, but it's really hard to squeeze in time for me because I'm going to be a senior and for those of you who have already graduated high school, you know what a hassle it is. You start doing activities and paying for stuff before the school year even begins. I'm learning how to drive too so that's been keeping me busy! I'm just going to ask that if you can wish me well on that. A driver's license is my TICKET TO FREEDOM. :D How about you guys? How has your summer been so far readers? Busy and hectic or carefree and easygoing? Lemme know. You can always send me a message or just send your response along in your review. Whatever floats your boat. Anyway, let us move on with the story!

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight. If I did, Jasper and I would have eloped by now.

seza3175, I dedicate this chapter to you. :)

Chapter 11: Nothing...

Bella's POV

I've been trying to convince Jasper to change me and thankfully since that day at his house, he seems to think it's a good idea. I keep telling him to trust me and that it is the right choice. Something keeps telling me that becoming a vampire and being with Jasper forever was something that I needed to do.

That it just had to be done.

I've been spending a lot of time with Alice, trying to get her to see if she could see it happening. She says that things are hazy, but that it might just be because of Jasper's indecisiveness. He keeps going back and forth with the "Pro's and Con's" of changing me.

"You sure you can't see it happening yet?"

"I'm positive Bella, but don't worry. The second I see the choice made, you'll be the first to know." She responded sighing.

She looked a little down. Oh right. Her precious Edward isn't here at the moment. I totally knew how she felt. The boys went hunting and us girls were left at home for the weekend. Jasper was insisting that he stay back, saying how he couldn't possibly last a day without me. That combined with his accent and his overwhelming powers was enough to make me melt, but I snapped out of it enough to call Edward over to shove him out the door as I stood giggling at the scene. He needed to hunt and I'd rather have him back with me for a long period of time rather than him making a lot of small trips just for the sake of keeping him near me in Forks. Anyway, the point is that the guys are coming back tomorrow, but in the mean time, we're feeling lonely and for the vampires… Bored. If you catch my drift.

I told Alice I was going to get something to drink from the kitchen and excused myself. I didn't want to bother anyone, but in reality, my head was killing me. I've been getting these random headaches and migraines. They go away with some Advil, but only temporarily. And lately they've been really bad. It's been bad enough that I almost passed out one morning at my house; luckily Jasper wasn't around to witness that. None of the Cullens know. Hiding it from Edward was the hardest, but I'm usually distracted when I'm around him so it got easier with time. I'll probably ask Carlisle when he comes back though just to be sure.

Alice's POV

I watched after Bella as she walked out the door and heard her footsteps downstairs in the kitchen. I feel so scared sometimes. I want to tell her, but I can't. There really was no need to worry her if it wasn't a big deal.

'It'll stop.. It'll stop… It'll stop.. ' I kept telling myself.

I was worried though and chanting this to myself wasn't going to change anything.

Bella's future was getting hazy. Every day for the past month, it had been getting worse. Like watching a tv with no satellite connection. Black and white lines making things blurry. It was so odd. I never came across this.

'Unless… NO.'

I was NOT going to think about that option.

I needed to talk to Edward. I needed to talk to him now.

Hoping he wasn't occupied, I pulled out my phone and pressed #1. After the first two rings, he answered the phone.

"How are you my love?" He said trying to act… Smooth.

I laughed at his attempt, but regained my composure as I remembered the task at hand.

He must've realized I was worried when I didn't say anything and asked, "Alice, what's wrong?"

I sighed and stated, "Edward, I think it's time you came back home."

He knew me well. He knew never to doubt my judgment. He knew something was not right and that I couldn't do it alone.

I could already see him making an excuse to the others as he made his way back to Forks.

"I'm on my way."

Edward's POV

I was heading back to Forks and I wasting no time. There are very few times when Alice interrupts my time with my brothers and Carlisle to come back home. VERY few. Out of the many decades I've been together with Alice, there have been only 6 times to be exact when she called me home and said that it was an emergency.

1: When the Volturi showed up at our doorstep demanding that they speak to both Alice and I.

2: When Alice slipped up once. A worried Esme took over the phone when Alice couldn't say anything beside "I.. I…" and told me what happened and that Alice couldn't get through it without me.

3: When she saw the vision of Jasper. We were all so excited; we dropped what we were doing and headed home to welcome Jasper together.

4: When she called me saying, "Edward Anthony Cullen! You and Emmett better march your butts back home and take Jasper along with you! How dare you leave him behind and make him feel left out?" He was still new to our lifestyle and… Us. In other words, it was awkward. He wasn't used to having people who cared so much about others and not themselves. It worked out in the end. And thanks to Alice, the three of us truly bonded like brothers that day.

5: When Rosalie slipped up. She made us all come back right away. She said that Rose was going crazy. I remember saying, "What's new Allie?" Alice however told me to be serious and bring everyone home. Carlisle was being the father figure saying that it could have happened to any of us and that people make mistakes. Emmett and Jasper were able to calm her down as well and I was trying to make sense of the turmoil going on in her mind. Alice said that we all needed to help her.

6: When she just plain missed me. I should have known something was up that sneaky girl's sleeve. When I got home panicked, she jumped into my arms and kissed me, long and sweet. I didn't have to read her mind to know how much she missed me though. She showed me.

"Lucky number 7…" I muttered to myself as I rushed home.

Bella's POV

A couple hours after hanging out with Alice, I announced that I was going to take a little nap. She asked if I was okay. I looked at her with a "Duh" expression on my face and said that I was absolutely fine, just a little tired.

For a second I thought I saw worry flicker in her eyes before she masked it once again and smiled saying, "Silly Bella. Go take your nap."

I didn't know what to think of that reaction, but my head was hurting so bad that I didn't really care at the moment. Maybe some sleep would get rid of the pain. I made my way to Jasper's room and laid down on the soft bed as I closed my eyes allowing sleep to take over.

Alice's POV

A few minutes after I was sure Bella had fallen asleep, I called Edward again. He didn't answer this time. That meant he was on his way. I left him a voicemail telling him to call me as soon as he could. I tried occupying my time, but time seemed to go in slow motion as I waited for him to call back. When I my phone rang and I saw his name light up the screen of my phone, I answered right away.

"How far away are you?" I asked so quickly, a human probably wouldn't have understood it.

"Not far. Probably an hour maybe two, but I'm trying to get back as fast as I can." He responded. I heard wind rush around him. He was still running.

"Hurry!" I exclaimed.

"Allie, what's wrong?" He asked.

"Just come home Edward. I'll show you then. You're too far away to read my thoughts anyway."

"I'm worried. Is everything okay? How is everyone back at home? Hello? Alice! Is everyone okay? You? Rose? Mom? Bella?"

I gasped slightly at the mention of Bella and suddenly the wind stopped swishing around on the phone. He had stopped moving.

"Gosh Edward! Why did you stop running? You can't waste time like that! Hurry up!" I rambled frantically.

"Fine Allie. Hour tops. Should I call Jasper and?-" he started asking.

"NO! Do not under ANY circumstances call Jasper!" I interrupted.

"He has a right to know that something is wrong Alice." He stated.

"I know, but not right now at this moment. Plus, if everyone comes back, Bella will realize that something is wrong. You know how observant she is."

He sighed. I smirked. I knew I won this argument. The same windy sound could be heard in the background. He started running again.

"You have a point. Fine. I won't call Jasper. I'm on my way."

"Good. Now hurry up!" I ordered.

"Okay, okay! I'm almost there. And Allie?.."

"What?" I said irritated.

"I love you.."

I instantly felt bad for yelling at him and being irritated. He was running home from who knows where because I told him to and I was acting like I was PMSing.

I smiled slightly and whispered, "Oh Edward… I'm sorry for yelling at you. I'm just worried about Bella."

"I understand." He replied. He was still waiting though. I knew that wasn't the response he wanted.

I giggled and responded, "I love you too… Now hurry home!"

He laughed slightly and said, "Okay Allie. Bye."

We both hung up and the smile faded from my face. Hopefully things will be a lot easier to figure out with him here.

"And now.. We wait." I announced at I slumped down on a comfy chair waiting for my husband to arrive. I stared out the window in our room.

'Twilight…' I thought.

A small smile crept onto my face as I remembered that memory with Edward.

I closed my eyes and let the happy memory fill me up as I tried to forget the problem just for a little while.

Flashback

I made my way through the crowded city of Seattle trying to reach Forks. I stopped to look at my reflection in the shop window and saw golden colored orbs staring back at me. I had never taken a single human life in search of quenching my thirst. It took me a while to realize what I was and what I could do. Of all my powers I had one talent in particular: the ability to see the future. I was grateful for that as well. If I didn't have that, I wouldn't have known that there was another option for me.

It was maybe one or two in the afternoon by the time I reached my destination: Forks.

I found the Cullens by following their scent. I'll have to admit, it was a bit difficult. They had tried to cover their tracks, but I found them. I smiled as I neared a house far out away from the town of Forks. I wasn't even near knocking on the door before five vampires stood in front of me, each one familiar to me. They all had the same look on their face. Looks that meant business, but still looked relaxed.

I smiled and walked closer. My one bag held tightly in my right hand.

I walked right up to Edward and smiled as I saw him truly for the first time.

'My mate' I thought. I smiled at the feelings that were stirring within me just by looking at him.

He looked slightly confused. He must have been trying to read my mind and find out what was going on. I let him in. I had nothing to hide.

"I don't mean to be rude young lady, but who are you?" I heard Carlisle ask from the side.

I looked at him and smiled before saying, "Oh I'm sorry. Where are my manners? I'm Mary Alice Brandon, Carlisle. However, I would prefer it if you all called me Alice."

To say that they were shocked was an understatement.

"How did you know his name?" Another asked.

"Well you see, Emmett, I have a special ability," before Edward could speak I added, "Please Edward, don't ruin the surprise for the rest of them."

"How did you know about the animal blood?" Carlisle asked.

"I can see the future Carlisle. When I woke up after completing my change, I was alone with no recollection of what happened and who I was. I just kept having these visions of your family, your lifestyle and…" I stopped hesitantly.

"And?" He asked urging me to continue.

"Becoming a part of our family," Edward continued, "She wants to be a member of the Cullen family."

"Yes. Exactly! I couldn't wait so I found out whatever I could about my past life and you all and hurried over. We'll be very happy. I've seen it. Trust me. Please." I said.

"She's telling the truth." Edward uttered to Carlisle.

I sent him a smile and thought a 'Thank You' to him. He looked right back at me and returned the smile.

Readjusting the bag in his hands, he walked to the front door of the house before turning around to look at me with warm hazel eyes.

"I guess that settles it then. Welcome to the family Alice!" Carlisle announced warmly. Everyone else followed his lead and welcomed me in.

After everyone went back inside Edward and I were left standing staring each other down... In a good way though.

After a long pause he finally spoke, "Cmon, I'll show you our room."

In a second I was next to him exuberant and saying, "Already one step ahead of you. I've seen it! Good choice with the view! It's beautiful."

"It is.. Especially at twilight."

"Well we still have a couple of hours before then… How about you help me settle in?.." I asked, an innocent tone in my voice.

With that said we quickly made our way to the room and broke it in for the first time as a couple. After a few hours, we laid there together, my head on his chest and his arm draped around my shoulders.

Edward broke the comfortable silence by sighing contently and saying, "Finally… Twilight."

I looked out the window and found that it truly was the most beautiful time of the day. As I took in my current state I knew that there was nothing more secure than how I felt in his arms in that moment.

I looked up at him and smiled. He smiled back down at me and placed a short, but loving kiss on my lips.

We were married the next week, ready to spend forever together...

End Flashback

I was pulled out of my thoughts by the sound of my favorite voice.

"Reminiscing on the past Alice?"

I looked up to see Edward smiling down at me.

I stood up and hugged him as tight as I could.

"Thank God you're here."

I could tell he was going through the thoughts I was showing him about Bella. We pulled apart and I looked at him, a worried expression was on his face.

"When was the last time you could see her future clearly?" He inquired.

"About four to six weeks ago." I responded.

"Where is she right now?" He asked.

"She's in Jasper's room. She was a little tired and said she was going to take a nap. That was a couple of hours ago."

"Something is off…"

"That's what I thought."

He sighed and said, "Let's just wait until she wakes up."

"Okay." I whispered.

Bella's POV

I slowly opened my eyes. My headache had gotten worse, if that were even possible. I felt a little warm. Maybe it was a fever?...

'No, I've had fevers before. THIS is not a fever.' I thought to myself.

"Ugghhh…" I groaned as I sat up on the bed and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes. I stood up and instantly felt dizzy.

The pounding in my head was getting worse. I grabbed the side of my head with one hand and could feel the blood quickly pulsating through the veins.

I managed to get out of the room and down the stairs. When I finally reached the bottom I could no longer see clearly ,but I kept my eyes open and tried to force myself to see. I called out to anyone that I could think of. Anybody that could help me. I was in so much pain.

"Alice!... Rosalie!... Mom!.. Help….." The last word was a mere whisper, but there were four vampires surrounding me. Alice, Rose, Esme, and.. Edward? When did he get here?...

"Bella? Are you okay?" I heard Alice ask panicked.

"Somebody call the others. Call Jasper! Somebody call Jasper and tell him to come home right this very moment!" Esme was shouting.

"I'm on it!" Rosalie replied quickly.

That was it. I felt myself falling to the floor. I couldn't take the pain anymore. My eyes started closing on their own and my legs were not supporting me anymore. I felt a set of stone cold arms wrap around my saving me from my fall.

"Esme! She's burning up! Get me a thermom-" Edward yelled. Suddenly he stopped talking.

"Alice what's wrong?... No! No!.. Nothing is going to happen! Rose! Hurry up and contact the others!"

The last thing I heard was Esme frantically asking Alice what happened and then suddenly Alice screaming.

"No! I can't see anything! Her entire future just blacked out. It ended Edward! It stopped! EDWARD, I CAN'T SEE HER FUTURE ANYMORE!"

Then there was darkness. Pure quiet bliss.

I know. I'm horrible. Lol I hope you enjoyed that! I added a lot of stuff so you could really dig into this chapter! I loved writing the flashback to Alice meeting the Cullen family for the first time. Oh! There's a reason why they already loved each other. They're vampires. They're on a higher level of understanding when it comes to love and mates. Plus, Alice can see the future and Edward can read minds. It sped things up for them because of their abilities as well. If these reason don't satisfy you then how about, because I wrote it that way? Lol I feel like I worked really hard on that scene and thought it is really sweet just the way it is. :D Hope you loved it though. I gave you multiple POV's as well. Well now that you've read, why not review? I would definitely appreciate it very much and love you for it! I will send you a personalized Thank You Note for reading and reviewing. Trust me; it's an offer you don't want to miss out on! :) Thank You for reading! Hope you enjoyed it!
