The Battle is near.

Shakilove: I know right. I just thought that because he didn't have to restrain himself like he did with Bella things would be different.

I wanted to give you guys something to read. I'm looking forward to the last story.


The next morning I woke up with the sun in my face. I stretch my body along the soft bed. Unconsciously, I reach out for Edward, but he wasn't here. I open my eyes and sit up now noticing the pajamas I had on. I don't remember putting these on. A sudden ache in my hips made me know that last night wasn't a dream.

"Good morning," I head Edward's silk voice from across the room. He was standing by the window. His back was facing me.

I frown at his rigid form. "Good morning," I say cheerfully to change the feeling in the room. I got out of the bed and walked towards him. I went to wrap my arms around him, but he moved out of the way. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just… last night." He shook his head and turned away from me. "I hurt you."

My frowned deepened, "Edward, it's nothing. You know that I can heal. I don't regret anything." I placed my hands on his shoulders.

"I lost control of myself. I hurt you. I felt like I-"he cut himself off, but I could tell what he was going to say.

I backed away from him now angry. "How the hell could you feel like that?" I almost shouted and I see him wince. He looked at me over his shoulder. "You didn't… You didn't force yourself on me. If anything it was the other way around." I sighed and turned and went to the bed. "Those men were about to, but not you Edward. You're completely different. I liked it… heck I loved it." I shook my head now upset. It was killing me on the inside about the battle that was soon to happen. Now Edward is acting like this. I don't want to think about it.

I took my clothes out of my bag. I walked out of room and went into my room in their house to change.

After I changed I grabbed my bag and headed out the front door. Edward stood on the porch. I sighed and walked up next to him.

"You know that I love you?" he asked me.

"Of course," I whispered but looked up to him.

"I'm sorry. It's just new to me. I don't regret it. I feel bad about it." he told me and we started walking down the stairs.

"Don't. I was, still am, please about it. We'll be married soon, Edward. I can't stand it when you think like that." He grabbed my hand and placed a kiss on it. "I don't want to fight with you, not today."

He nodded his head, "Me either."

"Good, now you go hunt. I have to get Bella ready." I leaned up and gave him a small kiss. "I'll see you soon." he smiled and ran off.

Bella was putting her blood on spots in woods. Why? I did not know. They were going to be here either way. She told me to it would be a good idea for me to do it. I told her it was a waste of time. But I knew my blood would give them the opposite reaction.

"You're going overboard." I heard Edward say. He came up to me and smiled.

"If this is all I can contribute, I want to be thorough." She told him.

I shook my head. "The newborns will be frantic." I said. The way Jasper acted around her blood, they would flip.

"Frantic about what?" Jacob said coming from behind a bush. Seth was right behind him.

"Alice says there's a storm coming." Edward told him ignoring the question.

"Yeah, I can feel it." Jake replied to him. "We should get going." He told the both of us."

"I'll see you in a couple of hours." Edward came up and kisses my forehead. I close my eyes for a moment. He turns and walks away towards the mountains.

"Something up?" Seth asked me walking around Jacob.

"Just a bunch of vampires trying to kill us." I told him once he lifted me up into his arms.

"Same old, same old," Jake said making me grin for only a second.

That same bad feeling I used to get hit me like a wave. I clutched onto Seth tighter. The two of them started running. And it took us long enough. I was worried that Seth and Jacob would be tired. But they seemed fine.

We made it to the campsite. Jacob sat Bella down before Seth reached them. He set me down next only for me to rush over to Edward. He pulled me into a tight embrace. It was like the fight never happened this morning. He turned to Seth and said, "Thank you."

I quickly walked back to Seth and give him a tight hug. "Be safe out there Seth. And watch out for your sister." He nodded his head unsure by what to say making me confused. All he did was turn around and run down the mountain.

I made my way back over to Edward. Bella walked closer to us and then turned to Jacob. "You should get back before the storm hits." I told him seeing that he wasn't moving.

"No, I'm staying. You'll need my connection to the pack, to keep tabs on what's going on." he said to us. I think it was deeper than that.

"You're not going to fight?" Bella asked him, worried.

"Seth will spell me in the morning." I want to hit him. I thought Seth was going to fight. That's why he had that reaction. "He's not happy about missing the action, but it'll keep him out of trouble."

"You better," I mumbled under my breath, but he still heard me.

Edward wrapped an arm around my waist, "Let's get you inside." Bella walked behind us as we made it to the tent.

Later that night the storm was brewing. Bella was shaking harshly beside me. I wasn't as cold as I thought I would be. Maybe it was because of what I am. I had my jacket opened and moved closer, but it wasn't working.

"I should have chosen a site lower down." Edward said looking concerned. He stayed in the corner of the tent. His cold body was affected at all. It would even make it worst next to us.

"No, it's fine. I'm okay." Bella said, but it was a lie.

"What can I do?" I asked her. All she did was look at me.

Not too long after the conversation Jacob unzipped the tent. "I can't sleep with all that teeth chattering going on." he closed the tent flap back.

"Thank God for the heat of a wolf." I said smirking. I forgot about him for a second there. "Get over here. She might lose her toes otherwise."

He came over to us and got on Bella's other side. "Why aren't you cold?" he asked me.

I shrugged my shoulders, "I have no clue, but I'm that I don't. I didn't want to smell like a dog." We shared a laughed. Jake was fun to talk to when he wasn't brooding.

I settled down in the sleeping bag. Bella was turned over to Jacob. I put my head back on the pillow. I turned and faced the love of my life. I smiled and closed my eyes, not once thinking about the danger of the next day.


Sorry, about the little bickering between Edward and Jacob. Since things are different I thought that most of it was pointless.
