Unexpected

I'm hoping you won't wake and notice my absence, but, if you should, I'll be back very soon. I've just gone to the mainland to hunt. Go back to sleep and I'll be here when you wake again. I love you.

I loathed leaving Bella alone at anytime for anything, but I needed to hunt. I placed the small note where I laid and watched her, hoping that she would sleep all throughout night. I lightly kissed her on the forehead and turned to leave. I knew that if I didn't leave now, I wouldn't be able to leave at all. I quickly ran to the small speedboat, started the engine and pulled out of the dock. I took one more look at the house and sighed. I pushed down on the accelerator, heading back to the mainland.

Feeling the wind cutting through my hair, I couldn't help but think about what could possibly happen to Bella. Would she not find the letter and wander around the island looking for me? What if something, by chance, found its way to the island and attacked Bella? Would Kaure come back, kidnap Bella and take her away from me permanently? No, babbling buffoon! Must you be dramatic in everything? What could happen? Even if Kaure did come back and take Bella, do you honestly think that Bella would stay away? She has expressed to you how much she loves you and wants to be with you and be equal to you. I shook my head, why was I fighting with myself. I had nothing to be concerned about…with Kaure nonetheless. Nevertheless, I hoped that Bella would find the letter and keep safe.

I shook my head over again; I needed to remember that Bella would be all right. I arrived within minutes to the outer skirts of the jungle. I pulled in as far as the water level would allow me to and cut the engine. I quickly prepared to dive into the warm ocean water and tie the boat down. As I grabbed the rope, I heard rustling in the trees. I turned, looking into the darkness and saw a rainbow colored macaw. I smiled to myself as I thought back to the days that Bella and I sent with the parrots on Isle Esme. I dove into the warm water, plunging down to the dark water. I found a large rock, secured the rope and forced myself to the surface.

Once at the tip of the surface water, I swam my way towards land. As I crept on the blistering dirt, I shook myself semi-dry and gazed at my surrounding. I heard the woolly and squirrel monkeys fondling in the trees. I heard different spices of frogs singing to the night air. I crooked my head, closed my eyes and listening more narrowly for prey. I took a deep breath of the moist air floating around me and I heard an animal moving a few feet from me. I crouched down, a deep snarl from the back of my throat escape my lips. I began running through the jungle, quickly and quietly. My body hardly brushed against the leafs, my feet carelessly touch the hard hot earth. My throat was throbbing and burning for sweet taste of fresh blood. I started too slowed down and crouched down more towards the ground. I saw my prey no more then fifty feet from my grasp. I continued to crouch down, crept my way through the grass and came to a near by fallen tree trunk. I saw my prey digging into its fresh kill. I growled to make myself known to my prey. It lifted its head and I narrowed my eyes and saw that I tracked down a black jaguar. He swept the area around him, trying to find where the growl surfaced. He went back to hollowing out his kill and I knew that was my moment to sink my teeth into his pulsing neck.

I slowly moved over the tree truck, positioning myself to pounce on his back. Suddenly I heard hissing from above me, before I could move I was being jerked into the air. I felt a great amount of pressure on my chest. I moved my head to look as to what had grabbed me and I saw that it was an emerald boa coiling his massive body around mine. Within seconds of being grabbed, it loosened its grip and discarded me back to the ground. I looked up and saw the boa slithering away from me. I felt the stabbing pain in my throat once more and needed anything to douse the fire. I jumped in the air, landing lightly on the branch and moved swiftly toward the boa. I grabbed the emerald boa by the end of its tail, yanking it back toward me. It wrapped its lower body around my arm, hissing at me while trying to attack. I managed to get a firm grip on the boa, I sunk my teeth into it scaly neck. I felt my prey thrashing against my grip. Once the blood pierced my throat, I sunk my teeth deeper into my prey. Within a couple of minutes, the boa stopped thrashing and his body was lifeless.

I pulled my teeth out and discarded the boa to the ground. I heard a loud thud once it hit the ground. I jumped from the tree, landing near its body and grasped for air. It happened to be the first time ever that I had sunk my teeth into anything-reptilian type. The blood coursing through its body was too salty and stale.

"That's the last damn time I sink my teeth into anything like that again."

I began running back toward my first choice in a meal tonight. I reached the area where the black jaguar had been hollowing out its kill. I saw nothing but its kill lying on the ground. Damn it. I thought to myself. I needed to find something else to get this ghastly taste out of my mouth. I crouched down and sprung to a near by tree branch. I squatted down listening to the jungle life that was active tonight. I heard everything that I had heard before tracking down my first meal. The area that I was in held nothing that would extinguish this desirable requirement for fresh blood. I decided to roam through the trees, in a different area I would find what I required. I got up from my squatting position, took three steps back and started springing for tree to tree. Every tree that I touched housed different species of prime mates, but once I arrived, they would scatter to the winds and it became quiet.

I continued to spring from tree to tree for the next 20 minutes until I caught scent of an ocelot. It was lying a few feet from me in a near by tree. I crouched down and moved my body similar to a feline, towards my kill. As I grew closer to my prey I saw, it had a tawny to reddish brown coat marked with black spots and rosettes. The fur was short and lighter beneath. There was a single white spot on the back of each of its ears and there were two black lines on either side of its face. It had a black-banded tail and the aroma ejecting from it called to me. I knew that if I came from behind the ocelot, it would notice me and run for it. I decided to climb the tree that I was currently on. As I climbed quietly toward the top, I leaped to the near by tree where my prey was peaceful. I grabbed a near by vine, I slowly made my way down, positioning my body similar to spider.

I lowered myself down, growing closer to the ocelot; the burn in the back of my throat was increasing. I held my breath as I finally rested precisely above my prey. I saw the ocelot sweeping the night. In one quick movement, I pounced on the ocelot, wrapping my arms around its petite body. My prey didn't have a chance against the amount of force that I was suffocating it with. The ocelot tried to wrench away from my powerful grip, but was unable to find a loophole. I bit it directly through the skull between the ears and delivered a fatal blow to the animal. My prey's pulse was moving quickly, moving fresh blood through its veins. I unhooked my teeth for my prey's skull and penetrated the animal's neck. The sweet blood was soothing the blustery fire in my throat. While I drained my prey clean, I felt sweet ecstasy coursing through my veins.

Suddenly my meal was interrupted by an enormous roar that came from behind me. I unhooked my teeth from the ocelot and discarded its body towards the ground. I turned and saw a jaguar crouched down in front of me.

I slowly backed away, never turning my back on the aggressive animal. The base coat of the jaguar was reddish-brown, spotless and its eyes charcoal black. I crouched down and snarled back at the animal. The animal launched at me, plunging us through the air and toward the ground. The animal and I smacked the ground, knocking the wind out of both of us. I rolled swiftly to my side, ran toward jaguar who was still struggling for air and pounced on the jaguar's back. I sunk my teeth into the main vein in the neck. The animal roared with agonizing pain and began thrashing against trees, trying to buck me off. The jaguar gasped for his last breath and then dropped to the floor. As the animal's carcass laid lifeless, I continued to drink the animal's blood. I heard his last heartbeat and pulled my teeth out of the animal's neck. I wiped away some of the blood that lingered on my lips. My thirsty was being satisfied but I need one more animal before returning to Bella.

Throughout the night, I was able to find two more jaguars. Each one taming, pleasing and satisfying the inner beast that dwelled in me. The sun was starting to rise and I began running through the jungle back towards the boat. I approached the outer skirts of the jungle and dove into the water, loosing the rope and shooting back up towards the boat like a bullet. I quickly climbed into the boat, turned on the engine, pushed down on the accelerator and headed back to Isle Esme.

I approached Isle Esme and saw some of the windows were opened. I panicked and pushed firm on the accelerator, pulling into the dock. The tip of the boat hit the sandy beach, sending some of it into the water. I swiftly grabbed the rope, threw it over the holder on the dock and raced towards the house. I swept the beach and saw nothing, as I grew closer to the house. I didn't smell anything out of the ordinary, but Bella's florist scent dancing long the beach. I pushed the door open, proceeded toward the living the room and saw Bella sleeping with the TV on. I sighed, smiled to myself and walked towards her. I was worried over nothing. I was making a mountain out of a mud pile.

I began pulling her into my arms and found that she was sweating. I felt guilty at leaving her alone with nothing to keep her cool.

"I'm sorry," I murmured. I wiped away the perspiring that lingered on her forehead. "So much for thoroughness. I didn't think about how hot you would be with me gone. I'll have an air conditioner installed before I leave again."

"Excuse me!" Bella gasped. She pulled away from me, holding her hand over her mouth.

"Bella?" I dropped my hold on her.

She ran towards the bathroom. I was right on her heels. We turned the corner; she continued to have her hand over her mouth. She crouched over the toilet and began vomiting violently.

"Bella? What's wrong?" I started to panicked once more. My word, what happened to her while I was gone? I quickly pulled her hair back and out of her face.

"Damn rancid chicken," she finally moaned.

"Are you all right?" My voice was tense.

"Fine," she wheezed. "It's just food poisoning. You don't need to see this. Go away."

"Not likely, Bella."

"Go away," she moaned again. I saw her struggling to get up; I gently wrapped my hands around her arms and helped her towards the sink. I felt her shoving me, but ignored her.

She rinsed her mouth out; I scooped her up and carried to the bed. I carefully placed her down. I continued to support her weak body with my arms.

"Food poisoning?"

"Yea." She said, roughly. "I made some chicken last night. It tasted off, so I threw it out. But I ate a few bites first."

I placed my hand on her forehead. Everything felt normal, a little more heat then usual but I figured for the vomiting. "How do you feel now?"

"Pretty normal. A little hungry, actually."

I studied Bella's body language for a moment. I knew that giving her something right after she vomited was the wrong thing to do. I immediately ran to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of cold water for her. I placed the glass next to the nightstand. I wrapped my arms around her, trying to begin her body temperature back down to normal. I asked her to wait an hour, perhaps it would pass quickly.

After an hour, I made some fried eggs for her. Once Bella was finished, I gently pulled her toward the living room. I turned the channel to CNN; we had been in our little paradise for so long, I have no idea what could have possibly happened. As Bella draped herself across my lap, I eyed her carefully as she watched the TV. I wasn't so much worried about news, I was worried about Bella. I didn't understand why she was feeling so ill. I didn't smell anything rotten when I came home. Bella twisted around and planted a sweet kiss on my lips. Before I could kiss her back with enthusiasm, she jerked away from me and grabbed her mouth. I sprung to her side, following her to the kitchen and pulled her hair back for the second time. She vomited not only the eggs but also some of the water as will.

"Maybe we should go back to Rio, see a doctor." I said. My anxiety was growing inside and I was trying not to lose it in front of Bella.

"I'll be fine right after I brush my teeth." she insisted.

She proceeded toward the blue room and she asked for a human minute. I paced back and forth outside the door waiting for her to rejoin me. When I heard movement, I stepped forward placing my ear against the door and listened. My nerves were already spiking and now their were pulling my in every direction. I couldn't take the silence and not knowing what was happening to Bella. I couldn't take it and I lightly knocked on the door. If couldn't be with her I needed to hear that everything was okay.

"Are you okay?" I asked leaning into the door. "Did you get sick again?"

"Yes and no." she said. Her voice was unusual and she sounded troubled.

Now I was over the edge. I needed to be with her. "Bella? Can I please come in?"

"O… kay"

I raced in and sat next to her, crossed legged and studied her face. She was dumbfounded and stared at nothing. I quickly placed my hand on her forehand. "What's wrong?"

"How many days since has it been since the wedding?" she whispered.

"Seventeen," I said immediately. "Bella, what its wrong?"

She held her index finger, gesturing for me to wait. I saw her mouth moving, it seem she was counting. I looked down at the suitcase and I couldn't find anything out the ordinary. Why was she counting?

"Bella!" I whispered urgently. "I'm losing my mind over here."

I saw her reaching into her personal belonging; search for something. She stumbled across a little blue box that read 'feminine care' and she held the box between us in silences.

I stared at her mystified. "What? Are trying to pass this illness as PMS?"

"No," she choked out. "No, Edward. I'm trying to tell you that my period is five day late. I

don't think I have food poisoning."

Bella's voice completely faded out. I couldn't move. I couldn't speak. I stopped breathing all together. I didn't understand what Bella had just said. I couldn't control my mind from racing. There was no way in the heavens or the world that she could be with child. It…It was impossible for her to be… and with me. Never in the histories of histories had a human even carried a vampire's child. I didn't know that it was possible. No, wait…I was too young to even be thinking about it. Or was I too old to be having children? Wait, a minute… this was not happening! What the hell was I thinking! Bella and I only had sex a couple of times! My mind began backtracking; I've read that normal people try for months and even years to have children. My sister and my mother could never have children, they were frozen forever. Nothing has ever surfaced about vampires having children with any human. The damned could never have children or even try for it. The possibility of us having children was not what I wanted and I knew that Bella never wanted it either. I wanted to scream at something or at anyone: Why was this happening to us? After everything that we had been through and now to hear that Bella was pregnant. This couldn't not be happening to us! She must be mistaken and over stressed about everything. I mean after all, there was the college idea, moving away from Charlie, and turning and not understanding it what it was…Bella was losing her mind and thinking that she was with child. She was stressing about it and not telling me what was happening.

Suddenly I heard Bella talking to next to me. "Hi, Alice."

Alice? Alice was calling. Why?

"Bella? Bella, are you okay?" Alice asked.

"Yeah. Um. Is Carlisle there?"

"He is. What's the problem?"

"I'm not…one hundred percent…sure…. " Bella trailed off.

"Is Edward all right?"

Alice's voice was tension as she asked Bella for me. She called Carlisle for Bella. Carlisle? Yes, that's it! Carlisle will be able to tell me that everything happening was impossible. That Bella was under enormous amounts of stress and she caught a rare disease.

"Why didn't he pick up the phone?"

"I'm not sure."

"Bella, what's going on? I just saw-" Alice trailed off, but I heard her voice trembling.

"What did you see?"

I heard nothing from Alice for a long time before speaking again. "Here's Carlisle."

I heard Carlisle on the other end. "Bella, it's Carlisle. What's going on?"

"I-" Bella trailed off for a moment. "I'm a little worried about Edward…Can vampires go into shock?"

"Has he been harmed?" Carlisle sounded particularly concerned about me. I needed him to focus on Bella.

"No, no. Just…taken by surprise."

"I don't understand, Bella"

"I think…well, I think that…maybe…I might be…" I heard her take in a deep breath.

"Pregnant."

My mind came racing back and I felt a smack in the back of my head. Although, I couldn't bring myself to move or speak. Why was she still saying that? There was no way in hell that this was happening?!

"When was the first day of your menstrual cycle?"

"Sixteen days before the wedding." She answered immediately.

"How do you feel?"

"Weird. This is going to sound crazy-look, I know it's way too early for any of this. Maybe I am crazy. But I'm having bizarre dreams and eating all the time and crying and throwing up and… and… I swear something moved inside me just now."

Once I heard Bella say the word 'moved', reality came rushing into my mind. I snapped my head up and extended my hand out for the phone.

She sighed. "Um, I think Edward wants to talk to you."

"Put him on," I heard Carlisle voice strained.

I pressed the phone to my ear. I was still in a state of shock. "Is it possible?" I whispered into the phone.

"I am not sure my son. If what she saying to be true then she might be. I never heard of this happening in all the time that I've been in the medical field. I can't give a solid answer until the you come home. Something may be wrong. Edward, you need take the next flight home immediately. Leave everything if you must. Call the airport and book the next flight home. Do you understand?"

I understood everything that Carlisle was telling me, but I needed more then just what he was giving me. I wrapped my arm around her, pulling her close to me side. "And Bella?"

"Everything that she has said to be seems to be right. Nausea and vomiting. Food cravings and habits. Fetal movements. However, this seems to be unusually in the first trimester. Normal woman don't experiences movement until their second to third trimester. Edward, you needed to be extra careful with Bella. If she can feel something, we may need to remove it. It could start hurting her physical. Edward, come home now." He said.

"Yes. Yes, I will." I ended the call with Carlisle and started to dial the airport.

"What did Carlisle says?" she said.

"He thinks you're pregnant." I said instantly.

"Who are you calling now?"

"The airport. We're going home."

I began arguing with the airport about leaving within the next couple of hours. The woman on the other end was telling me that all flights this early would cost a fortune. I kept telling her that I didn't care about the price of two first class tickets. I continued to repeat to her that money was no object. She wouldn't listen when I mention that my wife had grown ill and I needed her to seek medical attention. While arguing with the woman, I began rounding up all our personal belongings. I threw some clothes down for Bella to get dress. I gestured to her that I needed her to be ready. I continued to argue with the woman, speaking harshly through my teeth.

I grew tired of arguing with the woman and asked to speak with her supervisor. I saw Bella leave the room. I wanted to go after her, but I realized that my fighting with someone on the phone caused her stress. While I was on hold I received dozens of texts from Alice to call immediately, I pushed 'ignore', continued to gather our items, and packed them into the luggage.

"Sr. Cullen senhor. Este Luiz Valdivia, eu sou Sra. supervisor de Valdez. Como posso ajudá-lo hoje?"

"Necessito um vôo direto daqui a Seattle. Com a próxima hora mais ou menos, Sr. Valdivia?" I strongly said to him.

"Siento muito, senhor. Temos nada disponível, até a manhã. Podemos reservar esse vôo para se --"

I was growing frustrated and cut him mid sentence. "Não, siento muito. Minha esposa cresceu doente e necessitei receber sua casa. Agora, por favor. Pagarei o que receber nos

para casa agora." I demanded.

"Siento muito senhor, nós temos nada agora mesmo. Posso dirigi-lo a vôo posterior." He said weakly into the phone.

My word, I could believe that many people were flying in and out of Rio. There must be a flight or cancellation. Before I could speak again, I heard a loud beep in my ear. I pulled the phone away and saw Alice calling me now. I pushed the 'ignore' button and pressed the phone back to me ear.

"O nada? Nenhum cancelamento?" I said.

I heard another loud beep in my ear. I knew it was Alice calling again. I didn't even bother to look this time around. I didn't have time for whatever Alice wanted from me.

"Siento muito senhor, nós temos nada agora mesmo. Posso dirigi-lo a vôo posterior."

The third time I heard the loud beep. I growled into the phone. I knew that Alice was calling repeatedly. I heard the man on the phone swallow loud and then he fell silent.

"Não, estou necessitei-o agora. Deixe-me ligar lhe de novo." I said through my teeth.

"De senhor de curso." he said quietly.

I pulled the phone away from my ear and pushed the 'send' button. I pressed the phone to my ear and heard Alice nearly shouting at me. "Edward?!"

"What do you want Alice? I don't have time for this?!" I snarled into the phone.

"I know. I know. I'm calling to tell her that I got a flight home for you and Bella. It's a private jet. Jasper knows a friend who owns a private company. I booked the flight and you should be ready to leave within the hour." She spoke swiftly.

I sighed in relief. "Thank you Alice. The airport-" She cut my off.

"I know. A mad house down there. Don't worry. Also, there will be a private car waiting as well at the docks to bring you guys straight to the airport. I need to tell you something. It's-"

This time I cut her off. "Alice, whatever you're going to tell me it can wait until I get home. I need to check on Bella."

I hung up the phone and walked rapidly toward the kitchen. I saw Bella sitting on the table, gazing out the window. She seemed so peaceful, so whole and comfortable. She looked like a still painting looking out the window.

"Bella?" I called out, emotionlessly.

I saw that she was crying. "Bella!" I raced across the room, faster then human speed and

placed my hands on her face. "Are you in pain?"

"No, no-"

"Don't be afraid." I said, pulling her into my chest. "We'll be home in sixteen hours. You'll be fine. Carlisle will be ready when we get there. We'll take care of it, and you'll be fine, you'll be free."

"Take care of this? What do you mean?"

I leaned away and stared into her eyes. "We're going to get that thing out before it can hurt any part of you. Don't be scared. I won't let it hurt you."

"That thing?" I heard her gasped.

Suddenly I heard a boat approaching. I turned and looked toward the front door. "Dammit! I forgot Gustavo was due today. I'll get rid of them and be right back." I zoomed out of the room.

Before I approached the door, I saw Kaure walking up toward the house carrying a plate of food. I rolled my eyes. I couldn't believe she showed up like this. I waited for her to come to the door before opening it. I didn't want to take her by surprise. I heard her thoughts racing as she grew closer. Hoping that she was not too late in stopping me from draining my 'wife'. She figured showing up with dinner in hand, she could see that Bella was alive and doing fine. Praying to speak to her alone and talk some senses into her. I waited for her to knock; she knocked and I opened the door and faintly smiled at her. She asked if we were busy and wished to see Bella. I began pleading with her that everything was completely fine and there was no need to be here. I leaned forward, placed one hand on the plate she brought for Bella. She yanked the plate away, pushing me aside and insisted on see Bella.

"Desejo ver sua esposa." she said with a livid tone.

At that point, I began arguing with her and raising my voice. I insisted that everything was fine and if she could come back at a later time. I didn't need this aggravation. I swear if I weren't so full from earlier, I would have killed her. I knew it was extremely dark for me to admit it, but I didn't need her here adding to my frustration. My lips were pursed and I felt my face-harden. I approached the kitchen and I rushed to Bella side. I wiped away the tears that lingered on Bella's cheek and murmured into her ear.

"She's insisting on leaving the food she brought-she made us dinner." I rolled my eyes. "It's an excuse-she wants to make sure I haven't killed you yet." I felt beyond irritated but the current situation.

Kaure came walking in and her nerves were growing as she saw Bella and me together. I was a little agitated by her gawking. Her mind was racing repeatedly. She studied Bella's face, noticed her tears, she moved forward and placed the plate on the counter.

"O que você fez a ela?" she mumbled.

"Por que você está aqui, mulher velha? Pasta agora!" I snapped back at her.

I didn't needed this right now. Someone who I hardly know, accusing me of hurting someone I love more then my own life. She turned to leave, fighting with herself on why she said something in the first place. I saw Bella whirled around and she dove for the skin. I placed my hand in her forehand; I spoke in her ear telling her that everything was going to be okay. I looked around and saw the food that Kaure brought for her sitting on the counter. I quickly left her sided and opened the refrigerator, throwing the food in and slamming the door shut. I went back to her and placed my hand around her face. As she rinsed her mouth, I caressed her face feeling helpless, as she grew sicker. I pulled her into my arms; I felt her warm head rest against my shoulder. My nerves were shot to hell and I knew that the ride home was going to be worse. I heard Kaure gasped from behind us.

I saw through her eyes, the way Bella was holding her stomach. This time around, her mind came to the first conclusion. I turned to face Kaure, pulling Bella behind me. I wrapped my arms around her body. Kaure had now planned to take my love away and save her from this nightmare. She moved forward and began shouting at me.

"Engana! O que tem faz a esta menina pobre? Sei o que você está e tem agora idéia o que você fez a esta menina. Por que você está aqui, só com ela? Por que?" She demanded. "Por que?!" She kept repeating.

"Você não entende amo esta mulher. AMO-A!" I finally shouted at her.

She stopped for a moment, stared at me and waited for me to speak. I begin speaking her in her naive tongue. I begin telling her my love for my Bella, how she changed everything about me. How Bella gave me meaning and life. As I continued to explain to her, I didn't mind that she thought of me and Bella begin in love disturbing. I didn't mind that she finally understood what I was in this world. I begin pleading with her about the situation. She asked me if Bella was with child. I nodded; I saw through her eyes, my face was filled with sadness and seriousness. She took a step back and her mind was fogging up with a legend I never heard of before.

I extended my hand, gesturing for her to step forward; I moved to the side and placed my hand on Bella's cheek. I was trying to her that my kind was not like the legend that was swimming in her mind. She began shouting again, asking what I was doing to Bella. She continued to say that I was foolish and I disgusted her in ever way possible. I pleaded to her to understand that my love for her, my concerns for her and what was happening to Bella. Her expression changed as it went from hate and worsened to empathy. She continued to look between the two of us. She stepped forward, gestured with her hand in a shape of a bubble in front of her stomach.

She stepped more forward and began asking my questions on Bella condition. She asked if she had any usual eating habits, vomiting and if she had movement in her stomach. I responded nervously yes to all questions. Her mind was still swimming of her legend of vampire conceiving children. I asked of the legend, but she never spoke to me. She shook her head and I saw that she heard of a story of a woman carrying a vampire's child and never making it through the birth. In her mind, she never thought how it was possible or how the woman died. Died? I stepped forward and asked her if death was true? She never answered, but her mind was replying to my question. I saw her inching forward and sympathetically placed her hand on touch of Bella's hand over her stomach.

"Morte," she sighed quietly to Bella.

I stared at her after her told Bella 'death'. The expression molded on her face was of sadness and disappointment. She turned, headed toward the front and left. I heard her boat roar into life and then fade away. I couldn't move or say anything. Death? Bella was going to die from this? I thought for a moment that her legend perhaps was over exaggerated. I thought perhaps the old woman was extremely superstitious. Suddenly I saw Bella walking away; I gently grabbed her shoulder and turned her around to face me.

"Where are you going?" I whispered to her. I felt a pain in my lifeless heart as I looked into her eyes.

"To brush my teeth again."

"Don't worry about what she said. It's nothing but legends, old lies for the sake of entertainment. "

"I didn't understand anything. She said to me.

"I packed your toothbrush. I'll get it for you." I walked headed of her and towards the bathroom.

"Are we leaving soon?" she asked.

"As soon as you're done."

I handed to her; her toothbrush and she headed into the bathroom. While she was brushing I paced around the room waiting her to be done. I would give a quick glance at her to make sure she was all right, but also finished. I begin thinking that I not only did I need to get home to Carlisle, but to removed that thing that was in her, as well as conform to me whether the legend was true or not. After pacing for a while she handed me her toothbrush, I repacked it and grabbed all our belongings.

"I'll get the bags into the boat." I started too headed to the door when I heard Bella.

"Edward-"

I turned to face her. "Yes?"

I saw her eyes moving for side to side, I waited for her to speak. My patience was growing thin. "Could you…pack some food? You know, in case I get hungry again."

"Of course." I said. I felt my face soften. "Don't worry about anything. We'll get to Carlisle in just a few hours, really. This will all be over soon."

She nodded at me. I turned and headed out the door towards the kitchen to grab some food for her. I didn't know what was going to happen or how soon this nightmare would be over with.
