A/N: Hey I'm back!!!! I'm SO sorry!! I know I promised that bookjunkiez would update while I was gone but her computer wasn't working so she was unable to. But, I'm here and I updated! Thank you guys for your patience ;) On with the story :D
Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight. :(
I sat in silence for a few minutes and worried about what was going on. soon, Edward came up the stairs and into his room with a look of urgency clear on his face.
"Bella, we have to leave Forks."
"What!? Edward why!?"
"The hunt has begun."
Tears filled my eyes and my heartbeat increased. Edward kissed me and held me tight.
"It's okay Bella, I promise he won't hurt you."
"I know Edward," I sighed.
I thought about what I was going to say next, throwing ideas in here and there. Maybe I could go along with the plan I made in the book or maybe I could convince him to somehow let me meet James in the ballet studio. Yeah right.
"Edward," I began, "I know how to get rid of the tracker and you have to trust me."
"You know I trust you, Bella."
"Okay well, I have to go home first. I have to tell Charlie I'm going home to Phoenix, that I can't stand it here in Forks. The tracker won't expect me to actually go where I say I'm going. Then Alice and Jasper can run me down there while you, Carlisle and Emmett hunt him. Rosalie and Esme can distract the female, Victoria."
"Did this plan work in the book or did you get hurt?"
"I got hurt, but he told me he has my mother and i know for sure that he doesn't so I won't go and get myself hurt. I promise you, Edward."
He sighed.
"Alright. But if you get hurt I'm holding you completely responsible. Let's go."
He took me downstairs and into his Volvo. My eyes began to tear up again and some fell as we neared my house. I never wanted to do this to Charlie, but I had to.
"What's wrong?" Edward asked.
"I was just thinking about what I'm going to have to do to Charlie." I said and my voice broke.
"Don't worry, he'll forgive you."
"How can you be sure?"
"He loves you, even if he doesn't necessarily speak his mind."
We pulled up at my house and I got out of the car. I ran up the steps and opened the door then slammed it closed.
"I can't take it anymore!" I yelled. "I'm going to Phoenix!"
"Bells?" Charlie called, sounding confused.
I ran up the stairs, slammed my door shut, then locked it. I picked up a bag and started stuffing clothes in it. I heard banging on my door. I opened my door and walked past Charlie to get to the bathroom. I grabbed the essentials and ran downstairs. I was about to open the door when Charlie grabbed my shoulder. What Charlie said next was both familiar and unexpected.
"Just wait another week. Renee will be back by then." He begged.
I decided to play it by the book since it worked then.
"I have a key," I began. "Just let me go Charlie. It didn't work out okay? I really, really hate Forks."
I took the opportunity when he froze and ran out the door. My truck was still there, so I put my bag in the cab and hopped in after it. Edward was waiting in there for me and he took the wheel when my tears became too heavy. When we got to Edward's house, Alice was sitting on the stairs waiting for me. I ran out with my bag in hand to her. She took my arm and dragged me to the house.
"Come on, Bella you need to change clothes with Esme," She said. "You know, to confuse--"
"Ya I know to confuse the tracker. I know all of this Alice," I interrupted with a humorless laugh.
"Ya, I kinda figured, fellow 'psychic'." She winked.
I went up into Edward's room and Esme was there waiting for me. She gave me a hug.
"I'm so sorry, Bella," Esme apologized.
"It's alright Esme, it wasn't your fault."
She gave me her clothes and I stripped down and gave her mine, then changed into hers. We ran down the stairs and Alice began to take me to her porsche. Edward caught up with her and Alice left immediately. She knew he wanted alone time with me.
"No matter what happens over the next week or so just remember that I love you." I began and the tears began to fall again. I cried too much tonight.
"You are my life now." He responded simply.
I pulled him in for a kiss but it was cut short by Alice.
"Come on Bella, we need to leave."
She pulled me away and into her car. I was in the backseat with Alice and Jasper was in the driver's seat. I looked out the back window and saw The rest of the Cullens get into their cars. Then the car took off with the lights flying behind me. I layed my head on Alice's shoulder and fell asleep.
Yay!! I made this chapter longer! And no cliffhanger... not really... anyway! Thank you to all of my wonderful reviewers and please continue to review!
love,
