Edward told me where they were moving so cautiously that I almost laughed. Forks, Washington was fine with me. I told him that too. He was so relieved that I had to laugh at him. He cringed at me. It made me giggle more.

"My family will be leaving tonight. We were supposed to leave yesterday but.. The incident with Victoria happened." He said. "How do you know her by the way? And Laurent? Sorry if I'm being a little pushy. You worry me too much." Edward ended with a smile. I shook my head and smiled back.

"You will find out when we keep reading." I said to him with a little smile. He looked down at me and sighed over dramatically. It looked so funny coming from "serious" Edward. I had to laugh at him.

He smiled at me fondly. "I love making you laugh." He noted. He had his arm around me and kept giving me little squeezes. I absolutely love it. "Can we read the next entry or two now?" He asked after a moment of silence. I nodded and he got it out of his pocket. He held it out to me, since it was my turn to read it. I sighed and got to the spot and read.

February 8th, 2007

Dear Journal,

I'm back again! Just wanted to let you know how much of a fun time I'm having at Ice, the place I fight at. I met some really cool vampires. One guy is named Laurent. He is super hot. I wanted him to be my boyfriend and he even asked me, but I turned him down because it didn't feel right. We still went out on a date. Well more of a hang out. It was this little run down, cheap Chinese place. He didn't eat anything but he let me get something.

I laughed at everything he said, even when it wasn't funny. I thought he was perfect for me. Well, besides the fact that he was a vampire so we couldn't have children. And he would want me to turn into a vampire which I would really hate. I hate the smell of blood. It grosses me out really bad. Funny how I fight and there's always tons of blood. But it's different when I'm on the matt fighting. I want them to bleed.

Back to the subject at hand, Laurent dropped me off a block away from my house. His car was a really ugly, and loud Ford truck. He knows how much I hate Fords. We told each other tons of things on our hangout. He gave me a kiss on the cheek before I left. It was really sweet. I like him a lot. But there are so many faults, I don't know if I'd be able to do it.

My mom caught me when I tried sneaking back into my bedroom. It was on the first floor so I could easily sneak in and out. She was pissed at me. She actually still is. I told her a really lame excuse, but at least she bought it. I told her I needed Tampons and didn't want to wake her up. Good thing Laurent gave me that box of candy or else she wouldn't have believed me. I had it stuffed in my front pocket. She let me be after that. I was so relieved.

And with the fights I did, it was amazing and awesome! I beat one of the best vamps there! Well, none of them are any good but I still beat him. He beat the living crap outa me though. Whatever, I'm tired and wore out. So until next time! (again!)

~Bella Swan

When I finished I was beyond embarrassed. I can't believe I just read him something that had to do with my girl stuff! And the date with Laurent! Oh jeez I want to die in a hole now. Too bad there are other more embarrassing things in it and I am just going to have to deal with it.

I looked up at Edward. He had an expression on his face that said, 'wow' and he said that too.

I tried to seem nonchalant and said, "Do you want to read the next one?" And he nodded his head and took the journal. Right as he started reading, Alice yelled at us.

"EDWARD! GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW! EMMETT AND JASPER ARE HAVING A CRISIS! Plus I need to talk to Bella." She ended with a smile in her voice. She was close to my door. I didn't want her to see my tower so I took the journal from Edward, sat us up and set the journal back on it and teleported us outside my door. Alice jumped and I giggled.

"Yes Alice dear?" I asked her in a fake British accent. She looked at me funny and cringed. In a cute way. I don't understand how she does that! Now matter how much I practice I look stupid! Not Alice though, she pulls everything off. So jealous.

"Come Bella." She grabbed my hand and dragged me off after giving Edward a long look. I giggled. She stopped at my bedroom. I gave her a look. She ignored it and opened the door. Inside was somebody I never thought I would ever see again. Sitting on my bed, was Renee Dwyer. My mother. She was giving me a look that pretty much yelled, 'Lecture!' I gave her a look like she was crazy.

"Mom.. What are you doing here!" I literally screeched. I would have never guessed she was a vampire. And with amazing powers at hand. She was sitting cross legged with her hands in her lap.

She didn't look a day over 40. Which I'm guessing she wasn't. She was wearing a bright pink dress suit. It was the kind that had a skirt instead of the pants. She gave me a long look. The kind that said, "you're in trouble missy." I was not looking forward to this. Alice walked out of the room slowly, like she knew she was going to be asked.

"Mom?" I asked again. I was really happy she was alive. But as a vampire? How is that possible? I had so many questions to ask her. She got up and rushed to me. Giving me a long tight hug.

"Oh honey, I have missed you so much! If I would have known you were dating a vampire and fighting with vampires I would have told you sooner!" She rocked me back and forth. I used one of my powers to figure out what power she had. I guess I now know where I became so powerful. She had the ability to change herself into a human. "Sit down honey, I want to tell you my story." I looked at her for a long time before I actually listened to her.

Here, I thought my mom was an innocent being. But I guess not. She loved being all happy and gracious and nice. She was so friendly. Now I am seeing her as a vampire. With red eyes. I wanted so badly to be disgusted of her and mad at her. But I wasn't. I love her too much for that to happen.

We laid down on my bed and I made sure my bedroom was sound proof. My mom looked at me with love and started her story. "You see. I was changed when I was 16. By some guy named James." As soon as I heard his name I growled. Renee looked at me funny but kept going.

"I escaped after about two weeks of being locked up in a house that was all wood. I got home to my parents and they were so worried. I didn't even know what I was. I knew James was a vampire and he bit me. But I thought my parents would notice. So I went up to my room and looked at myself in the mirror. I kept changing from back and forth between human and vampire." She had that distant look in her eyes.

"But at one point when I was changed as a vampire, I got a horrible burning in the back of my throat. I saw a human jogging down the street. I jumped out of my window and tackled the runner. I knocked the runner out and brought them into the forest near my house. I fed off of him until there was nothing left. I was so disgusted at myself for doing that. From that day forward, I decided to figure out how to control my powers and stay human. For as long as it takes. I wanted to live like a normal person, and I got to! But once I found out you died and Phil gave me tapes that have you fighting vampires and I got so worried. I went straight to Charlie's and went into you're room. I found one little picture you left on the ground." She pulled a picture out of her pocket. It was of me and the Cullens laughing at nothing at all while our picture was getting taken for the school yearbook. I cut it out and put it in my carry on. Or so I thought.

I took the picture from her and almost cried out in joy. I loved this picture. We were all so happy. Renee continued. "I realized they were vampires and I knew I had to do something to figure out if you were changed and with them. I used my best tracking skills and online searching. They were up somewhere in Canada and I found Carlisle. I showed him a picture of you and asked him if he knew where you were." She shook her head like she was trying to get the image out of it.

"His eyes held so much pain that I knew he didn't have you. He asked who I was and I told him I was your mother and that you were missing. His eyes got even worse than they were. I felt bad for even asking him. I left and went on searching. When I got an invitation in the mail asking to go to the celebration. It had your first name and I just hoped it was you." She paused and held back a sob. I held onto her tightly.

"It's okay. I'm here now." I whispered to her. I wasn't going to ask questions until the end.

"Well I came here and I saw the Cullens and I asked for Alice to bring Bella to me. She knew who I was instantly and brought me here." She hugged me so tightly and protectively that I let out a small sob of happiness. "Do you have any questions?" She asked me. I nodded my head.

"Okay so first, did you know the person you killed for the first time? How many humans have you killed? And what is your diet?" I said in a rush. I didn't really want to know any of the questions but it was one of those times where you needed to.

Renee looked a little embarrassed. "Yes he was my neighbor. I have killed… 11 or 12. And my diet is humans, but I'm trying to cut back and stop! I only drink from the humans that are really bad people that are murderers." She looked away from me. I don't think she wanted to see my reaction. I didn't want her to either.

"James is dead by the way. I killed him." I tried to make her feel a little better. She looked relieved. "Okay next, um, do you have those tapes on you? And can I see them? Is Phil a human or vampire? Why did he tape me? Do you know?" I might have asked too many questions, but Renee answered all of them.

"I do. You can. He's human, and he was a psycho freak who watched things like that and enjoyed it. Especially you since I found out he hated you. I found the tapes and watched one. I demanded an explanation from him and he gave me one. I kicked him out and haven't seen him since." she had an angry look in her eyes. She got her purse and pulled out a box filled with tons of tapes. Every single one had me being taped fighting. I think everybody wanted to see that. I decided I would be okay with that.

I jumped off the bed and held out my hand. She took it. "I want you to meet my 2 new families. I will get you all caught up too." I ended with a smile.

1 hour later

So after everything was said and done, I got everybody in our living room to watch the videos. My mom was really hitting it off with Marcus. I think she had a crush on him. I felt bad for Heidi though because Marcus seems to like them both. He was sitting next to both of them too. I could tell Renee and Heidi didn't like each other. But other than that everyone was fine with my mom.

I got the VCR out so we can watch the videos. Everybody was anxious to see me. Edward was a little worried though. I could tell he wouldn't be able to stand watching me get beat up. But it was in the past and he would have to deal with it. I even told him that. I opened the box of tapes and took one out. As soon as I did, I blacked out. I heard some yelling but then I went completely under.

All I felt was pain. I was in somebody's body and I was surrounded by people. Some guy was kicking my stomach. I felt myself get up and look at the massive guy. Glaring actually. I ran at him and kicked him hard in the knee. He yelled out and fell to the ground. I got on him and punched him until my hands were completely bloody. He was unmoving so I got up and put my hands up in victory.

Everybody was cheering for me and I was smiling. Somebody grabbed my leg and pulled me down. I shrieked. I felt the guy come close to my face. I flinched back. "I will not let some girl beat me in a fight." He growled viciously in my ear. He picked me up by me hair and threw me back on the ground. My whole body felt numb. I didn't think I could move a muscle in my body. Until I heard the guy whisper in my ear again. "Now I will knock you unconscious and drag you out of the place and have a good time." His blood dripped on my face. "You any good in the sac?" He laughed at me.

I suddenly felt tons of strength and feeling come back to my body. I jumped up and kicked the guy in the face. He was still kneeling down and was surprised. He got knocked unconscious that time. I would never. Ever have anybody control me. I leaned over him. "Don't. Mess. With. Me." I stated and kicked him again. Just to make sure he wasn't going to get me again. I walked out and ran home. My lungs were on fire but I needed to get home as fast as possible.

I jumped into my room and ran to the bathroom. I took a long, hot shower and scrubbed myself clean and bandaged myself up. As I was walking to my bed, I tripped and fell.

I woke up and saw Edwards face right next to mine. I got up quickly and jumped out of everyone's way. They all looked relieved. I still had the video tape in my hand. "Not. This. One." I stated angrily and threw it back in the box. Not hard enough for it to break, but hard enough that they will all know that I really didn't want that one.

Edward came over to me and hugged me tightly. "Did you have a vision?" He asked me. I nodded my head and held onto him tightly.

"I've never had it like that before though. I was in the body and experiencing everything I did in that fight. Usually I am like a ghost floating over everybody. Somebody else will have to take care of the tapes. I don't want to go through that again." I kept shaking my head to get the memory out.

Edward nodded and got Renee to do it. I sat next to Edward and snuggled into him. Good thing we got the living room remodeled or else we would have been crammed on the couch. We got like three couches now. Me and Edward shared the love seat while everyone else had to cram into the two long couches. We have a huge flat screen TV mounted on the wall. It is really easy to see.

Renee clicked play and sat back next to Marcus. She smiled at him and started flirting with him a bit. I giggled at her. "What?" Edward asked me with a smile.

"My mom." I replied. I knew fully well that everybody could hear us. But I didn't care. I was happy to be with my family. All of my families. But thinking of families reminded me of my other family. With Jacob. I haven't talked to him since I left when I was human. I couldn't even tell you if he was alive or not. I felt really bad. All my thoughts ended when the video started playing.

It was silent. All you could hear was the TV and all the cheering on it. I was circling with a vampire. It was Satchel actually. He was one of my buddies when I was fighting. We didn't want to fight with each other but we don't get to pick. The director guy does. I had my knife out and ready.

He pounced on me and I saw everybody in the room wince, waiting for me to get pounded. But I moved slightly out of the wait and he ended up almost flying off the stage into the crowd. He turned back around and looked at me. I smiled at him and waved. The look in his eyes said, "No more mister nice guy." and he growled and jumped. I stuck my knife into his side and rolled to the left, making sure my knife slit his abdomen open while I was doing that.

He looked at the wound like he was surprised it happened. Then he looked at me in astonishment. He shook his head and came straight at me but moved to the side really quick and then back straight. He plowed into me and we fell on the cement floor. I saw the pain flash in my eyes but I didn't make a sound. I felt Edwards grip on me tighten. I looked at him and saw his anger in his eyes. Along with worry. And self hatred? I couldn't tell.

I grabbed his face in my hands. "This was in my past. It is over now. I'm right here. Perfectly safe and powerful." I made sure he understood. I gave him a small kiss on the lips and we smiled. Nobody was paying attention to us. "I love you Edward Cullen." I whispered. He gave me another soft kiss that lasted a little longer.

"I love you too, Bella soon to be Cullen." He replied with my favorite crooked smile. We both turned back to the TV. I was being punched and kicked badly. But I jumped up off the ground and slammed the knife into Satchels butt. He screamed and fled the stage. I won the fight. Everybody was cheering for me. I heard Phil's voice come on, "Dammit." And then it turned black.

It was really silent. And then Emmett's booming laughter made us all jump. He looked at me. "Who would have thought little clumsy Bella could attack a vampire like that. Dude, were you like a ninja in training or something?" He asked me. Genuinely curious. I had to giggle at him.

"No. It just took a lot of practicing." I replied shortly. Everybody was just staring at me and it made me a little self conscious. "Well.. Um. Mom? Can you put in the next tape?" I asked so everybody would stop looking at me. It worked. As soon as she started the tape I tensed up when I saw who my opponent was.

"Aw, crap."

Did you like it? Were you surpirsed that Renee turned up in it? I was too:) it just came to me as I was writing. I won't ask you to review because I know who will and who won't already. But it would be nice to have a pleasant surprise! Would you guy like me to write a story on how Edward and Bella met? I haven't had much people answer and I would really like to know. Just a simple yes or no would be nice. If there are any spelling mistakes I am sorry! And my computer has been acting up lately so if I don't update immediantly It will be because of my stupid computer. Who's your favorite charactor out of: Emmett, Demetri, Jasper, or Marcus? Whoever you choose I will add into the story more:) Choose wisely!
