So Edward's POV was a hit, huh? Apparently I nail depression and angst right on the head. So thank you for your nice reviews, and I apologize for not updating sooner. There certainly will be another chapter in Edward's perspective, but let's head back to our pixie-like friend. Here is the initial reaction of Bella jumping.

No, no, no.

There it was again. The image of Bella, standing on the edge of a cliff, a triumphant smile on her face. The wind blowing her hair. Her eyes determined. And then it happened. She bent her knees and jumped, letting out a scream of exhilaration.

No, no, no.

As painful as it was, I kept replaying it in my head to make sure that her decision was set in stone. This could not be happening.

I had told him she would do this.

The vision replayed in my head once more, and I heard her body hit the water with a smack.

"Alice."

"Alice?"

Jasper was shaking my shoulders.

"Huh?" I looked up at him, confused and dazed

"What is it? What did you see?"

"Bella…she…she jumped."

"She what?"

"She…jumped, jumped off of a cliff."

I was shaking, and the dry sobs were continuous. He pulled me close to his chest and stroked my hair.

"Oh, Ali." He whispered, "This is all my fault. If I could have just controlled myself."

"He was going to make us leave anyway." I mumbled

"Still."

"All that matters now, is that Bella is dead."

"Alice, there's nothing you can do about it."

"I know. I just…I just have to go to Forks." I decided, "Maybe she hasn't done it yet. I know I can't stop her, but just because she jumped, doesn't mean she's dead yet."

I removed myself from his lap.

"I'm driving back to Forks."

"Alice, no. Edward said we couldn't interfere anymore."

"Well, she's not just his property. She's my best friend!"

"Ali, please."

"You can come with me, but I'm going."

"I…I can't face her. And I know she's your friend, but we promised we would not interfere."

"Promises are made to be broken." I whispered

"Bye Jazzy." I hugged him, and gave him a quick peck on the lips

"Hurry back." He whispered

"I will. Forks and then back."

"Promise?"

"Promise." I smiled, before running down the stairs and out to the garage

"Alice, what's going on?" Rosalie asked

"Bella's dead."

"What?"

"She jumped off a cliff."

I slammed the garage door without further explanation, and got into my car. I started driving as fast as I could. I didn't know what I could do. What if Charlie was home? How could I tell him I knew? But I had to be there. I reached the airport and demanded a flight. The next two hours were spent filled with anxiety, my fingernails tapping against the tray in front of my seat. As soon as the plane landed and dismissed its passengers, I ran to the old house, got Carlisle's car, and drove to Bella's house for Charlie. To comfort him. To mourn for my friend. My best friend. My sister.

No one was at Chief Swan's house. I parked the car on the curb, and headed to the side of the house. I climbed in through Bella's window. It was open, which surprised me. Was she hoping that one night he'd climb through like he used to?

I looked around her room. Two days ago she had walked this floor. Used her desk. Slept in her bed.

I walked downstairs and waited at the kitchen table for Charlie. I watched her jump again and again in my mind as I waited.

What seemed like days later, I heard the door creak open. It was too lightly opened to be Charlie. I didn't recognize the scent. It smelled salty, and sick.

The person got closer, and I could make out the shape. It was definitely a girl. She searched for the light switch, but I stood up and flicked it on.

I stood there ready to see who the person was. Brown startled eyes. Brown hair. Cream colored skin. No, it couldn't be.

"Alice, oh, Alice!" she cried, slamming into me

The impact of her was not what made me cringe. It was her scent. I hadn't been around humans for months. But she was alive. Alive!

"Bella?" I double checked

She gasped in reply. And then immediately began sobbing. Had I made her upset?

I dragged her into the living room, and held her on my lap, like Jasper held me when I was upset. I massaged her back, and waited for her to talk.

Mere minutes later she began to babble.

"I'm…sorry. I'm just…so happy to see you!"

"It's okay, Bella. Everything's okay."

I wasn't saying this out loud for only her benefit.

"Yes." She bawled, nestling herself closer to me

Lavender and freesias tickled my nose. This would not end well.

"I'd forgotten how exuberant you are." I explained, pursing my lips and turning away slightly

"Oh. Sorry." She apologized

Apologized? This was my fault. If I had been careful, and hunted…

"It's my own fault. It's been too long since I hunted. I shouldn't let myself get so thirsty. But I was in a hurry today." I explained, "Speaking of which, would you like to explain to me how you're alive?"

"You saw me fall." She realized

"No. I saw you jump."

Who falls off a cliff? Okay, it was Bella we were talking about. But still.

I couldn't help shaking my head.

"I told him this would happen, but he didn't believe me."

"Bella promised." I mimicked him, "Don't be looking for her future either, we've done enough damage."

"But just because I wasn't looking, doesn't mean I don't see. I wasn't keeping tabs on you. I swear, Bella. It's just that I'm already attuned to you…when I saw you jumping, I didn't think, I just got on a plane. I knew I would be too late, but I couldn't do nothing. And then I get here, thinking maybe I could help Charlie somehow, and you drive up." I expanded shaking my head

I still didn't understand how she was alive.

"I saw you go into the water." I mused, "and I waited and waited for you to come up, but you didn't. What happened? And how could you do that to Charlie? Did you stop to think about what that would do to him? And my brother? Do you have any idea what Edward-

"Alice, I wasn't committing suicide." She interjected

Dubious, I eyed her, waiting for the real confession.

"Are you saying you didn't jump off a cliff?"

"No, but…it was for recreational purposes only."

Recreational purposes? Surely, she had a death wish. I waited for further explanation.

"I'd seen some of Jacob's friends cliff diving. It looked like…fun, and I was bored."

I waited for more.

"I didn't think about how the storm would affect the currents. Actually, I didn't think much of the water at all."

Nope. Wasn't buying that story.

"So if you saw me go in, why didn't you see Jacob?"

Jacob? Oh yeah, that La Push kid. Why didn't I see him? Obviously if he made a decision that interfered with Bella's I should have. She went on to explain how he got to her, but I was only half-listening, an explanation brewing in my mind.

"Someone pulled you out?" I frowned, trying to take hold of a reason why I couldn't see this Jacob

"Yes. Jacob saved me."

Why couldn't I see him? I saw vampires best. Then humans. But what couldn't I see? Maybe if I nonchalantly sniffed her…

I leaned forward and sniffed her shoulder. Gross.

"Don't be ridiculous." I muttered, trying to categorize the scent

"What are you doing?"

"Who was with you out there just now? It sounded like you were arguing."

"Jacob Black. He's…sort of my best friend…"

She rattled on and on about how strong he was, and then she said something that completely threw me.

"See, well he's….sort of a werewolf."

My jaw dropped. Not easy to surprise a vampire.

"Well, I guess that explains the smell. But does it explain what I didn't see?"

Werewolf or not, he should have been visible to me.

Part 2 should be up soon
