I felt a cool hand on my back and I looked up to see Aro, I scrabbled onto his lap and he held me close. All my anger evaporating "Are you okay?" He asked me, I let out sigh of contentment "yes," I said nodding, "Edward pissed me off," I said snuggling closer. Aro's chest vibrated as he chuckled "What did he say?" He asked, "He called you a monster" I grumbled, "Don't listen to him" he said kissing my head.
I nodded and looked up, kissing him on the lips. He smiled down at me, "You still upset?" he asked, I shook my head "It's impossible to be upset when you hold me" I nearly whispered. He smiled lovingly at me and kissed me sweetly on the lips. "I love you" he said, "Not as much as I love you" I teased, "Oh really?" he asked raising an eyebrow. "Really" I said smirking; "Well" he said looking away for a second then back at me "I think I love you more" he said "Is that so?" I asked
"Oh that's so, so" he said "Well I think I love you more" I said,
"No, I love you more and you know it" he said,
"I do, do I?" I said
"Yes, now say it" He said,
"Nope" I said popping the 'p'
"I'll make you" he threatened, but his smirk gave him away
"How will you do that?" I asked almost grinning,
"Oh, I'd tickle you of course"
"Oh you wouldn't" I said my eyes getting wide,
"Wouldn't I?" he raised a single eye brow "say it" He said
"Never!" I said and laughed a little
"Then you leave me no choice" He grinned and flipped me onto my back and started to tickle my stomach, I started to laugh and thrash about, "Stop it!" I said through fits of laughter, "Never!" he cheered and continued to tickle me, "PLEASE!" I gasped as he laughed and tickled more, "Say it!" he said "Never" I gasped, he stopped tickling and pinned my arms above my head, he leaned in close "Say it" he breathed and his lips ghosted across mine. "I won't, 'cause it's not true" I whispered.
"It is, the love I feel for you is never ending" he whispered in my ear. "That's how I feel about you," I whispered back "You are my only reason for living" I said, "Without you I am nothing" I whispered, "You took the words right out of my mouth" he said and kissed me.
"I love you more" he whispered after he pulled away, "No you don't" I said and smirked. "We shall see" he said and places a small kiss on my lips, he was still holding my hands above my head, but he let them go now. I moved them around his neck, twisting my hands in his soft black hair. I slowly ran my fingers through it and he closed his eyes, I small noise came from his chest. My eye brows furrowed in confusion, I stopped running my hands through his hair and the noise stopped. I started again and the noise started again, "Are you . . . . Purring?" I asked and smiled his eyes opened and if vampires could blush he would be, "I can't help it" he said. "I think it's . . . . Sexy" I said smiling,
"Really?" he asked, I nodded and continued to run my hands through his hair, the purring got louder. And I giggled. He leaned down and kissed me lightly, "I have to go" he said and I pouted, "Why?" I asked
"Vampire, needs to be dealt with" he said simply, I sighed and nodded "Okay, don't be too long" I said as he got up. "I won't" he said and slipping out, I sat there for a bit, before I got up and walked to my office. I sat at my desk and started to read my book when Edward came in, "Bella I'm sorry" he said, "What I said, it was unfair" he said sitting down in the arm chair on the other side of the desk.
"It's fine Edward" I said still peeved at him, "It was all a joke anyway" I said, I continued to read, I hadn't put my book down. "What do you mean?" he asked.
I rolled my eyes "The fighting, Cassandra wrestles with Jane, not using her power of course, and by choice, if Aro and I had a choice she wouldn't be fighting, but she wants to. The break down, the song. I knew you were there. It's all been a prank. Personally I think you deserved it after what you did to me" I said.
"This isn't you Bella, the Bella I knew wouldn't of done something this cruel" he said, my eyes widened and I slammed my book shut, I took a deep breath trying to get my emotions in check. "Cruel? What was cruel is leaving me in the forest! Leaving me alone, broken. That was cruel, I haven't dealt you even a third of the pain you caused me. And you want to know the only thing that made that pain go away. It was Aro. Because he would never leave me, he loves me and I love him. So deal with it" I said.
"What about us?" he asked
"There is no us!" I nearly screamed at him, I took a deep breath. "Sorry, I shouldn't of yelled" I muttered. My emotions are really messed up. "But you Edward Cullen, give love a bad name. You hurt me. And I thought I was never going to recover." I said looking into his butter scotch eyes that used to make me melt; they do nothing to me now. Not now that I'm used to the crimson eyes I love so much.
"Bella, I left to protect you" he nearly whispered, but I caught it.
"Well, Mr. Superman, look where that got you." I said sarcastically, "but now it's my turn to break your little heart. I don't love you. I never will. Okay, I used to think you were my soul mate, but ask Marcus, he can tell you. That Aro loves me so much, and I love him. You will get over this; I know the first cut is the deepest. But you'll get over it. Move on and find a nice vampire to love" I said my tone turning soft now. "It would be nice if I could stay in touch with you and your family, if you'd be comfortable with that" I said again. Alice danced in then.
"I've heard everything" she said. "It would be great if we could be friends, I don't care what he says" Alice said and grinned at me, I smiled back.
"Hug?" she asked holding out her arms, I hugged her awkwardly. And she smiled.
"Well, according to you, Alice. Everything is going to be okay. So I'll trust you" Edward said smiling at his sister.
"Bella?" Aro called, he waltzed into the room, "Aro" I said and almost tackled him in a hug, he chuckled and put his arms around me, "I'm guessing you came clean?" he asked,
"Yup" I said.
"Well, I hope you are still staying for the Ball? And hopefully the wedding?" Aro asked I looked up and saw him grinning, I turned around to face them and Aro kept his arm around my waste. "Yes, I can't say no to a reason to dress up." Alice said grinning.
"I would be delighted" Edward said, it sounded forced but it was good to see he was making an effort.

AROPOV (I couldn't resist)
I smiled as Bella snuggled closer to me in her sleep. I was happy the Cullen's would be staying; Carlisle is a dear friend of mine. I slowly wrapped my arms around Bella and she mumbled something in her sleep, "I love you" she mumbled. I smiled and whispered back "As I love you, Bella Volturi" I smiled at the way that sounded; I knew I'd be lost without her love. She is my everything. I'd do anything for her. Go to ends of the earth for her. She's the only one.
Okay! Thank you for reading! Not a very big chapter! THIS IS IMPORTANT! The first person to get the song quotes right in this chapter gets a hug! A cookie! And a shout out! :O hint! There are 2 in the last paragraph in Aro's POV :D haha. Some of them are oldies others are not. :D haha so ya! I got a review saying that Marcus is mooshy. Give me a definition of mooshy. The best one gets a shout out too! Since I doubt anyone will pick up all the song quotes in the chapter.
And ponder this
I told you that I was in love
with a boy who didn't love me,
you told me he was a fool
if he couldn't see my worth,
but you walked away
before I could tell you
that boy was you
