Chapter 10: Truth Be Told

I awoke feeling disoriented. It took me a while to realize where I was. I was in my bedroom at the Cullen's home… My home. I sat up and felt as if my head was spinning. What the hell happened to me? Now that I was aware of my surroundings I could hear yelling coming from the yard. I limped over to the window as fast as I could only to see Edward and Jasper stalking one another. I should have just listened to him…to everyone and left. How foolish of me to think I could break it off with Edward and everything would be fine. Stupid stupid Bella.

_________________

I sat on the porch awaiting the arrival of my first love. I had to break up with him. It was over I was certain of it but I know in Edwards twisted mind, he thought everything would be fine. I saw when the car pulled up and could see Tanya's smug expression. I smiled right back.

"Bella!" Edward exclaimed flittering to me and hugging me tight. So many nights I spent in those arms, so many nights I yearned for them. I felt nothing now just pure and utter fear. What a difference two weeks can make.

"How are you my love? I've missed you so much." He went to kiss me but I turned my head causing him to kiss my cheek. Edward looked down at me confused. I spoke before he had the chance.

"We need to talk." I glanced at Tanya who was watching my every move. "Alone." I added. Edward simply shook his head in understanding and signaled for me to hop on his back. I jumped on and he took off into the woods.

This would be the last time I would experience this form of exhilaration with him. I couldn't help but hold him tight and pressed my face into his collarbone. I was on the brink of tears. I was about to break someone's heart.

When we arrived it took all I had not to break down right then and there. He looked at me intensely trying to piece my emotions.

"Bella didn't you get my letter?" He asked. I didn't want him to speak I just wanted to hold onto the peace we had. I knew it would never be the same between us once I said what I had to say.

"Bella?" Edward asked panicked. I took a seat on a fallen tree and buried my head in my hands to collect my thoughts.

"Bella?" He asked again.

I had no idea how I reached this decision but here I was and I was ready to face him. I had to be honest with myself and with the one I thought I wanted to spend forever with. I was going to break his heart I knew that, but it had to be done. After all he broke mine first. It was now or never. We were here where our relationship first began…and where it would all end.

"Edward." I peeked up at him. He had to know something was wrong. "We seriously need to talk." He took a deep unnecessary breath. I couldn't even look at him. "I can't do this anymore." I said rapidly hoping he won't ask me to say it again. "I can't keep lying to you or myself. Ever since Italy things haven't been the same between us. You changed…I changed."

I heard a low growl. I looked over to where he once stood. He wasn't there anymore. A wave of fear and panic pulsated through my body. I should have listened to everyone.

He now stood in front of me. His eyes were cold and dark. His teeth were bared and dripping with venom. I knew what would happen next. I deserved it. He promised me to never leave and here I was …leaving him. I closed my eyes welcoming my fate. I felt his cold hard hands grip tightly around my neck. My eyes opened to stare at the one I once loved.

Despite my fear I continued to speak.

"Edward look what you're doing. This isn't you." I croaked. He wrinkled his nose.

"So you're leaving me for my brother?" He snarled. My body froze. How could he possibly know?

"You stink of him. You're leaving me for the one who tried to kill you?" I didn't speak. I knew that if I did it would just make matters worse.

"Say something!" He yelled while shaking me violently.

"You left me twice. You embarrassed me, you tried to control me. If it's anything Edward you pushed me away from you." Tears were falling freely.

"I tried my best to love you but it was never good enough. Anytime things got tuff you left."

"Bella I didn't leave you I-"

I cut him off. "You left without saying anything. You can try to justify it in your head as you were giving me time but you left." I yelled in aggravation. I felt his grip get tighter.

"What does he do that I can't?!" He yelled.

"Edward I…I can't breathe" I was beginning to feel light headed as my body began to tremble.

"Tell me!" He shook me again.

"Can he do this?" He let go of my neck and crushed his lips to mine causing me to fall back.

Edward began to quickly unbutton my shirt as I tried to push him away…lost cause.

"Edward" I pleaded.

"Stop!" I yelled against his lips. He pulled away his cold dark eyes were filled with lust.

"Isn't this what you've always wanted?" He asked in a seductive tone. He ripped his shirt off and was on top of me in a blink of an eye. I began screaming hoping someone would hear.

"Edward no…please stop." I pleaded.

"Tell me you love me." He said looking into my eyes. I gazed into his seeing nothing but the monster he thought he was. He was no longer my Edward.

"I …don't love you anymore. Please just get off me." I cried.

Edward was frozen. I tried to wiggle myself from underneath him. But he stopped me. Grabbing me by my throat again he picked me up and held me in the air.

"Are you trying to tell me that you love him?" I was desperately gasping for air. He shook me again. When I tried to speak he tossed me towards a tree causing my head to bang against the massive roots of the tree. Before I could blink he was hovering over me.

"Edward please just let me go." I said in barley a whisper. I was terrified I could hear a growl come from behind me.

"I believe you heard the lady." A deep smooth voice called with a hint of a southern drawl. I'm sure Jasper could feel the relief that coursed through me.

"Aww look and he brought the mongrel with him." He said standing up. I sat up feeling the blood drip from my head. I quickly covered it and gasped.

"Bella it's alright." Jasper assured me never taking his eyes off Edward.

Jacob ran to me and picked me up. "Don't worry Bells I got you."

"Jacob." I cried allowing the tears to fall freely as I tightened my grip around his neck.

"Get her out of here Jake." Jasper yelled. Jacob glared at Edward before taking off into the woods.

Waiting for our arrival were Esme and Carlisle. I began to wonder where the rest of the family was but heard yelling coming from the side of the house.

"You're all just mad because I slept with Alice and Bella's man." An indescribable feeling coursed through me as I struggled against Jacobs hold.

"Let me go Jake. I'm going to kill her."

"Bella do you really think that's a smart idea you're bleeding let Dr. Cullen examine you."

I sighed as I allowed Jacob to carry me inside. Tanya and Edward together? I questioned it before finally dismissing it. He would never do that to me … would he?

APOV:

I could feel the anger course through me as I heard the car pull up. I quickly ran to the window like everyone else and watched the exchange. Thinking about it now Edward and Tanya would make a perfect couple…they're both psycho.

"Alice please don't do this. Just let it go. It's something that happened in the past let's just keep it there." Brian pleaded but it fell onto deaf ears. I was too enraged with her to just let it go.

"Brian it's not just about you." Rose explained. "Tanya is a foul woman. She's the reason for Bella and Edward's break up. She's an instigator."

"And she needs to be stopped." I finished. He gave me his sad puppy eyes which caused me to feel bad that he had to see this side of me, but I had to do this. Tanya must be stopped.

"Are they gone yet?" Jasper asked from the couch. Poor Jazzy he was much stronger than I was. I would never allow my Brian near a deranged Tanya.

"Yea he's giving her a piggy back ride." Emmett laughed. I could hear Jazz mumble something incoherent under his breath.

Tanya walked inside acting as if she was on top of the world humming to herself and a smug smile plastered on her face. I was glad she had no idea what was waiting for her.

She paused when she saw Brian. I couldn't help but laugh as I watched her smile fade.

"Surprised to see him here?" I said stepping out beside him. She seemed stunned.

"You and him?" She asked.

I smiled widely. "Yes, is that so hard of you to believe?" She chuckled.

"What is it with you Cullen's and humans?" Brian shot me a pleading look and squeezed my hand he was holding.

"I could ask you the same question. Sorry we're not the type to run around town sleeping with them." I sneered.

Tanya let out a growl and crouched over ready to attack. Lucky for me I'd already seen all her moves. I crouched over as well.

"Emmett get Brian out of here." I yelled. I didn't want to risk him getting hurt.

"And miss the fight?" He whined. I let out an aggravated snarl and he quickly obliged to my request.

"So is this how it's going to be Alice? You're all are choosing humans over your own kind, your family? Can't you see they aren't like us?" She said as I stalked her every move.

"You're exactly right Tanya they aren't anything like us…there better. And no were not choosing them over you because as far as I'm concerned you're not my family. You think I don't know about your little plan to ruin Bella and Edward's relationship?" She didn't answer.

"It's funny because no matter how hard you try his mind will always be on Bella." She growled and launched herself at me. I simply stepped out the way causing her to run into a wall. She grunted and launched herself again this time I kicked her sending her flying back into the wall.

"Not in my house Alice." I heard Esme yell from upstairs.

"Shall we take this outside?" I didn't wait for a response. I jumped out the back window and quickly turned knowing she would try to attack me from behind. I grabbed her and threw her across the field then pounced on her.

"This is for Bella." I said as I began punching her repeatedly then getting up and kicking her in her side. I stopped as a vision came to me. I watched as Edward tried to have sex with Bella. I gasped in horror. I watched Tanya as she glared at me.

I launched myself at her sinking my teeth into her and ripping the side of her neck along with dismembering her shoulder.

"I got it from here Alice. Go help Bella." Rose said. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what my vision was about. I ran to the house.

"Jasper go get Bella quick Edward's lost his mind." He was already on the phone and running out the house. I just hope he'll reach her before it's too late.

"Carlisle Esme I need you both. Bella is coming back hurt. I saw blood coming from her head." They both began preparing for Bella's arrival. I ran back outside only to be stopped by Brian.

He didn't look to happy.

"Alice have you had enough fighting?" He asked in a tone I never knew existed.

"Brian I'm sorry but Tanya was wrong-"

"I asked you to leave it alone I'm over it."

"Well I'm not and besides it wasn't all about you, this is about Bella as well."

"Last I checked Bella is quite happy with Jasper." He said.

"Bella's going to come back hurt and nearly raped because of that woman. Brian she needs to be taught a lesson. Who knows who she's going to hurt next." He wrapped his arms around me and sighed.

"Brian I just don't want her hurting the ones I love. Bella is my best friend and doesn't deserve to be hurt in any kind of way. And neither did you. I'm sorry but I couldn't just let it go." I cried. Brian just simply ran his fingers through my hair soothingly to calm my nerves.

I began to wonder what power he would possess once he was changed. I Looked up at him and gazed into his loving eyes. "There's something I need to tell you." I said softly.

"What is it?" Brian asked.

"You remember how I told you I get these visions about the future?" I asked knowing his answer.

"Yea what about them?"

"I saw you like me. You're going to be in a car accident on your way home tonight. No matter what I do to stop it, it just makes it worse." He was silent.

"Bri…would you spend an eternity with me?" He cupped my chin and smiled.

"Always." He replied as he softly kissed my frigid lips. This was the last time night I would gaze into those icy blue eyes.

I took him in completely memorizing his features knowing he'll never be the same.

"For the next three days you would be suffering from an intense burning sensation."

I wanted to make sure this was what he wanted.

"It would all be worth it." He simply replied kissing down my neck. I loved when he did that.

"Are you ready now?" I asked.

He nodded. I took him up to Carlisle's office that was already set up for him.

"Since he's not dying this should be a smooth transition. The burning shouldn't be as intense as your brothers and sister. Carlisle said pulling out a needle and injecting it into Brian's vein.

"This is just to help with the pain Brian." He spoke calmly.

"Do you want me to do this Alice?" Carlisle asked skeptically.

"Just stop me if I go too far." I replied. I gazed at Brian my brave human and smiled.

"I love you always." I whispered before sinking my teeth into his jugular and drank until I heard his heartbeat slow. He groaned in pain.

"I'm so sorry love." I whispered.

I licked over the wound to seal in the venom then repeated over and over again to various places on his body.

"You did a great job." Carlisle commented. Before I could respond I could smell Bella and Jacob approaching. Carlisle looked at me.

"Go to her make sure she's alright." I said.

He smiled.

"I'm so proud of you Alice." He said before flittering out the room. I sighed as I gazed at my boyfriend. Our future began to flash before me us getting married, going shopping, going on vacation and most of all sharing an eternity with one another.

I sighed knowing that things would turn out just fine. Of course we would have to leave so he won't hurt Bella or anyone else at that. I began thinking of the perfect destination. I went to reach for my phone to make reservations but paused when I heard voices coming from down below.

"You're all just mad because I slept with Alice and Bella's man." I went to jump out the window but felt Brian squeezing my hand.

"I…love you." He managed to say through his pain. From then on I promised to never leave his side till he was a newborn. Brian was far more important than some whore who just wanted attention.
