I don't own Twilight, S.M. does, but I do own a cat named Ron Weasley.

Chapter 14

Five Cats and a wake

I sat in my chair with Harry Potter on my lap. Harry was one of my cats, the most shy of the group. I was surprised he jumped right up on my lap.

"Hey Hair-bear how you been doing?" As I scratched his ears, he is just purring away. I feel more fur around my feet.

"Wumpkin! How you doing" Pumpkin is doing the kitty mambo around my legs.

"meow" I look over and there is my Percy, named after Percy Weasley, this cat was born with a stick up his ass, as well as 6 toes on each of his front feet. The snob of the group, as long he isn't being ignored that is.

I spy Ronald on my old computer monitor looking at me warily. "Come on Do-do you know who I am." I begin using my special cat whistle that seems to draw any cat to me. It's a gift I've always been able to do it.

Just as I get to the 2nd verse, Ron is in my face licking my nose just like he used to. He is just trying to shut me up I think, but I just giggle as Hermione lets her voice be heard. God, I didn't realize how much I missed my kitties till now. Fuck I got to get a cat when I get back to Forks; somehow I will talk Charlie into it.

"Mommy? It's really you." Kitty says quietly behind me

"Yes, it's me Kitty; I can give you more proof. Your middle name is Alexandria, you were born at Rose Medical Center in Denver six weeks early. You were head down when I went into labor after my water broke, but when the doctors stopped the labor, you got pissy and somehow turned sideways inside me without any water, confounding the doctors in two hospitals on how you were able to do that with no fluid, and to this day I don't think they know how you did it."

"I believe you Mommy, how; you just died last Saturday night?"

"Baby, I wish I knew, I'm not far from here, but I woke up on a plane in this body with all my memories of just you guys, none of Bella Swan."

"Do you remember everything from your life?" Ahh, she must be trying figure out if I remember my childhood

"Everything, Kitty, even what happened when I was a child." I was honest with my kids and my past when they got old enough to understand. Secrets in my childhood are what killed it, no one talked about it. I broke that chain; I didn't want the past to repeat in my children.

"Why are you here now?" Kitty questions

"I'm here to say good-bye to Charlene. There is no way I can be the mother like I was before last Saturday, it's impossible, you know that Kitty."

"Yeah, I know but you're going to be around aren't you?" she says hopefully

"I will try to be in as much as possible, but you need to go and live your life, and I promise I will still watch out for all of you. I will TRY to make it to your important moments if I can, if I can't I let you know I'm with you in spirit like I promised last Saturday."

"Why can't you just move in with us, you know Daddy wouldn't mind." No, Chuck wouldn't mind I know that. We've taken in kids before that were having a hard time of it, and feed many more than that.

"Kitty, that would be weird, look at me, I'm in a body of a seventeen year old, shit girl I had to go back to fucking high school! I think I'm in hell half the time. I'm living with a guy named Charlie, can you believe it, who is 'Bella's' father. I've had teenage boy's attack me, I've crushed one guys nuts twice!"

"oohhh, (snort) Mommy (giggle) no you didn't!" Kitty is really trying to hold back her laughter; she knows her Mom wouldn't put up with shit from any man let alone a teenage boy.

Smiling at her, "Sure did baby, the second time I broke his nose while I was at it."

Now it was my turn to be on the floor laughing, soon my laughter turned into uncontrollable sobs. "God, Kitty I didn't want to leave you guys, it hurts so much. I'm going to have to let go of this life now, but I want to remain in some part of your lives. I remember you email, and I'll give your mine so we can keep talking and you can keep me updated. Trust me if anything goes wrong with you guys I will know and be here as quickly."

"Okay Mommy, or should I call you Bella now?"

"I think Bella will be better for everyone. Now you can't tell your dad about me at this time, he is going though too much."

"What about telling Charles or Sammy?"

"Sammy really that kid can't keep anything secret, he is the worst liar, but Charles you can try to tell, but I don't think he will believe it."

"Crap, Mo..Bella, it's almost time for the wake, I still need to get ready."

"I can help you get ready!" as Alice bounces into the room, and causing all the sleeping kitties to hiss at her.

"Whoa, what's with the cats?" Kitty wonders

"You know how they are, stranger danger." I know the cats can pick up that Alice is dangours, but Kitty must not ever know about vampires.

Kitty disappears with Alice, and its Kitty Barbie time. I'm glad she getting time with Alice, when the books were real Kitty was a big Alice fan, even though I can tell Kitty doesn't remember the books.

I leave the office closing the door and go back downstairs. While Kitty and I were talking the house has filled up with people. Fuck I didn't even know this many people when I was alive, shit other than my husband and kids, there was only 2 other people I talked to regularly, My best friend since I was 15 Ruth, and my sister Rebbie.

I scan the room and I can't believe some of these people had the nerve to show up, my mother and my fucking half brother are here! I cut those two out of my life 12 years ago, what right do they have to be here. I feel a panic attack coming on and I sit down on the stairs, and put my head between my knees.

"Bella!" I hear Alice call

"Alice" I crook out "Get me the fuck out of here now!"

Alice gets me out to the car and I sit down. I take deep breaths and will myself out of this state, They have no power, they have no power, they have no power, I keep repeating to myself until I calm down.

"Bella, you alright?" Alice says softly

Just when I was about to answer, two of Sultan's finest show up and I hear arguing going on inside.

"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HOUSE YOU BITCH!" Chuck screams

I see the cops run into my old house and reappear a few moments later with them.

"If you ever contact me or my children again I will press charges for harassment!"Chuck yells

"But what if they want to contact me?" my bitch of a mother cries, not surprising, there are no tears to go along where her wail. Fake bitch.

Charles steps forward, "I will only say this once to you Jewell" Charles sneers my mother's name with distaste "I speak for Katrina and Samuel, we want nothing to do with you, after the hell you put our mother through we want NOTHING from you bitch! Its hard to believe in a god that lets a psycho bitch like you live, and someone who just wanted to be happy and loved die, like my mom." then he just spits in her face, followed by Kitty and Sam.

The cops escort my mother and him away. I told Alice I need to go say good-bye to everyone and then we can leave.

I go back in and find Chuck sitting alone on the couch. I see such a broken man; I need to say something to him.

"Mr. Zimmermann I know it's hard for you right now but it will get better, but try to remember the good times with your wife, and not the bad. I know she wouldn't want to waste your life away, take time off and get yourself together, spend time with your children. They are part of her that is still living remember that." I lean down and kiss him on the forehead. A part of me will always love this man, but I can't be a part of his life anymore, just like him I have to let it go.

"What's your name?" Chuck queries

"Bella, I'm a friend of your daughter."

"Thank you Bella, I needed to hear that, it sounded like something my Princess would have told me."

I mumbled your welcome and quickly got away before my emotions got the better of me again. I found Charles and Sammy eating in the kitchen. You know funerals everyone brings food; I know it's the nice thing to do, but unless you have a huge fridge, a lot goes to waste. Unless, you have two sons like mine, I laugh to myself.

"Hi again Sammy, Hello Charles, you must be Kitty's brother. I'm Bella a friend of hers."

"Hi Bella, nice to meet you." As he talks between bites of his Dagwood sandwich he made.

"I just wanted to say sorry about your mother's passing and if you or Sammy ever needs anything please e-mail me." I hand him my email address and hug both Charles and Sammy.

I found Kitty in the family room surround by her friends.

I wave over to her "Kitty" I call. She excuses herself and comes over.

"Kitty I have to be going, it's a long drive to where I am now, I just wanted to say good-bye for now, but I want you to email me when you get a chance, I can explain more then."

Kitty just envelopes me in a hug, not wanting to let go and starts crying.

"Shh, baby," I whisper, "I'll always be here for you no matter what, just remember that."

"I love you Mommy" she whispers

"I love you too Kitty always and forever" I whisper back. I kiss her on the forward and let her go. I turn around and with Alice by my side I leave my old life behind.

"Alice, can we just go back to Forks? I need time to process this day and a hotel room isn't going to be a good place to do that."

"Sure Bella, not a problem"

"Thanks" I settle into my set and just let my tears come. Sometime during my one woman pity party I fell asleep, I wake up being carried into the Cullen's home by Emmett.

"Thanks Emmett" I mumble sleepily

"Anytime little sis." He whispers back

I knew the moment we hit Edwards's room, I can smell it. What is it about this smell that calms me, makes me feel safe? But before I can think more about it I fall into a dreamless sleep.
