Carlisle POV
It was hard to believe that we went from how great last weekend was to now. Bella can barely make it out of bed. She was going to leave us soon I could tell. "I am sorry, but there is no way we can get here to the church tomorrow." I said to Leah as we sat in the living room. Jake was holding on to her as tear formed in his eyes.
"I understand." Leas said as she held her head as the tears formed. "I am sorry, Jake. I can't go through with it." She said as she got up. She walked disappeared into the kitchen.
"Can you help me call everyone?" I asked him. "She wants to talk to everyone." I asked him. I was slowly falling apart. If I could cry I would be sobbing. If my heart could beat it would stop. I could feel my world falling apart.
"Yeah." He choked out.
Charlie POV
I got the call as I was eating my breakfast I found myself speeding the whole way to her house. Sue stood there by my side as we realized this was it. "Can I go first?" I asked her as we looked up the stairs.
"She is your daughter." She said as she looked at me. I walked up the stairs in a fog. It wasn't supposed to be this way. I shouldn't have to stand in the doorway of my baby girl's doorway looking at her on her deathbed. She was supposed to outlive me.
"Dad." She said as she smiled up at me. It felt tears running down my face as I looked at her.
"Bells." I said as I looked at her.
"Sit down." She said as she patted the bed. I did as she said. "Please don't cry." She said as she looked at me. "I love you Dad." She said as she looked at me.
"I love you too Bells." I said as I looked at her. "I love you with my whole heart baby girl."
"I know that." She said as she looked at me. "If you ever need me I will always be right there." She said as she placed her hand on my chest. I cried like a baby at that moment. "Don't cry." She said as she looked at me. "This isn't goodbye." She said as she looked at me. "I will always be here." She said as she looked at me.
"I know." I said as I looked at her. She sat up and reached into her nightstand. She handed me an envelope.
"Only open this when I am gone." She said as she looked at me.
"Okay." I said as I tucked it into my jacket.
"Take care of Little Charlie for me." She said as she cried. I was the only one who called my little granddaughter little Charlie. Bella hated it when I called her that.
"Of course." I said as I looked at her. "I love you so much and I am so proud of everything you did and the person you have become." I said before I kissed her forehead and hugged her.
"Well, I had a really great father to keep me on track." She said. "You made me who I am."
Sue's POV
It seemed like hours passed as I waited for Charlie. More and more family came in the house. Not even Charlotte had a smile on her face. When Charlie did come down he went straight outside. I heard him as he cursed and kicked the porch. I waited a short amount of time before walking upstairs. She looked like hell as she sat there in bed. "Baby girl." I said as I looked at her.
"Am I making the right choice?" She asked me as she cried. I just got in bed and cuddled up next to her.
"Have you made a choice?" I asked her. "Because you say you want to be changed, but here we are." I said as I looked at her.
"It would be so much easier if I just died." She said as she cried on my shirt. "Think about how complicated it would be for Charlotte and I couldn't see Charlie or mom."
"Sweetie." I said as I held her. "I love you like a daughter and it might seem a bit selfish. But, I don't want to lose you." I said as I looked at her. "I know that Carlisle couldn't handle it. Or anyone else actually. But, you don't have very long to decide." I said as I hugged her.
"I know." She said as I looked at her. She handed me an envelope as she let go of me.
"It's for when I am gone or in transition." She said as she hugged me again. "Thank you so much for letting me be part of your family."
Carlisle POV
I sat in my study holding Charlotte when Sue came in. "She isn't going to let me is she?" I asked her.
"I don't know." She said as she sat down. "At this point she might be too weak to go through the transformation." That thought had gone through my head over and over. What if I am still too late?
"She is dead set on saying goodbye." I said as I looked at her. "It doesn't have to be goodbye."
"I know." Sue said as she looked at me.
Jake POV
I was one of the last to go up and talk to her. I couldn't find the courage to. "Jake, do me a favor." She said as she saw me standing there.
"Whatever you want." I said as I looked at her.
"Bring my sister and Mr. Webber up here. It might not be legal, but I want to see you marry her." She said as she looked at me. I did as she said. Leah and I both cried throughout the whole thing, but not the way we should have. We cried because we couldn't believe we might actually lose her.
"Thank you." She said as she looked at us. "I love you two." She said as she looked at us. She had already talked to Leah. I guess Leah refused to go through with what we just did. "Can I talk to you alone for a minute?" She asked me.
"What is it?" I asked after Leah shut the door.
"I need you to take care of something for me." She said. "Seth's girlfriend is pregnant. Help him out. He is scared." She said as she looked at me. "I know you can figure it out."
"I will." I said as I looked at her. She handed me an envelope and hugged me.
"I always loved you Jacob Black." She said.
"I know." I said. "I love you Bella."
"One more thing." She said as she looked at me. "Get everyone out of the house. Tell Carlisle it is time." I did as she asked. I sat in the back yard with the Cullen children and Leah. We could hear her screams from where we were.
"If this doesn't work." Alice said as she looked at me. "I don't know what will happen."
