I smiled and let my tears fall as I cooed at the lovely Mary. I handed her to Rose and wiped my tears.

"She's gorgeous Rose." I whispered.

"Thanks Bella. You okay?" she asked.

I nodded. "Are you?" I asked.

"Not really." she winced but then looked down at her daughter. "But the outcome was worth it." I nodded.

"Definitely." I looked up to see Edward looking dumb founded.

'What?' I mouthed. He shook his head looking confused.

Everyone got a turn to hold the baby and we all left. Charlie took Kasey home considering she was asleep.

Alice came over to me and hugged me.

"Are you okay?" she asked.

"I'm done Alice." I sighed shaking my head.

"What do you mean?" she asked in a startled voice.

I stopped her in the waiting room and we sat down.

"Look at Edward and Jane." I whispered. Edward and Jane were indeed talking quietly and snuggling looking quite comfortable

"Yes." she practically growled. "I'm not happy about it. What about it?"

"They look so happy." I whispered. "I wont destroy it. Edward's happiness is the only thing that matters to me. I've been really selfish."

"But Bella-" she shook her head. "What made you think all this?"

I sighed. "Holding Mary. I just thought, she's going to be a heartbreaker when she grows up. What if she was completely content with a boy, and another boy just wanted to take her away from him. She would be so hurt. What would we do about that boy?"

"Well you would hold him down while I shout at him and pummel him to a pulp for making my niece unhappy…oh!" she exclaimed sadly. "But Bella-"

"Alice, I'm only hurting myself the longer I stay here. When your wedding comes in two weeks, I promise, I'll be outta here right when you get in the limo."

"Bella-" she whimpered.

"I gotta go." I said. I got up and walked outside. That's when I remembered that there were only two cars, and Charlie, Kasey, Esme, and Carlisle had taken one of them.

"Hey genius." Alice said. "Jasper, Edward and Jane are coming back home too." she had the keys in her hand.

"Alice I'm sorry-" I started but she walked forward and got in the car. I sighed.

"Hey Bella, you okay?" I felt Edward put a hand on my shoulder. As usual it sent shocks through my body. But for the first time, the shocks stung me instead of soothing me. I shrugged his hand off my shoulder and got in the jeep. I sat in the back scared to sit next to Alice.

Jasper sat next to Alice, and Jane and Edward sat next to me. As we pulled out of the parking lot I stared out the window and let my tears fall. the silence was eerie and awkwardness hung in the air. This continued for awhile but then Jane broke it.

"Let's play some music!" she cheered.

"Good idea." Edward nodded and Jasper turned the stereo on. To Love You More by Celine Dion blasted.

Take me back in the arms I love

Need me like you did before

Touch me once again

And remember when

There was no one that you wanted more

I let out a small whimper and buried my head in my hands.

"No music." Jasper decided turning the stereo off very quickly.

Well I would rather the eerie silence than the, 'Tunes Of Bella Swan's Heart.'

After a full fifteen minutes of Jasper, Edward, and Jane failing miserably at making conversation we finally made it home. Alice turned the car off, opened her door, and walked fairly quickly inside. I sighed and got out of the jeep. I walked inside with my head bowed.

"Hey what's with Alice she ran as fast as she could upstairs, like someone was chasing her with a knife, attempting to stab her in the back?" Charlie joked. I ran to the basement and ran down there. I slammed the door and began to cry. I heard the door open and someone come down. I smelled the familiar scent of cinnamon. Edward.

"Bella are you okay?" he asked and sat down next to me.

"No Edward, I'm not." I whispered.

"What's wrong?" he asked sounding truly worried.

"It's nothing that you need to worry about. Alice is just really, really, really mad at me." I whispered.

"Bella please." he sounded like he was in pain. "Why is Alice mad at you?"

"I'm not staying. After the wedding, I'm taking Kasey and leaving." I whispered hesitantly.

"Bella you can't!" He exclaimed sitting in front of me. "You can't leave me!"

"Why not Edward?" I demanded. He was quiet.

"Bella can I try something?" he asked.

"Um, sure?" it sounded like a question even to me. I felt slight pressure on my lips. Edward was kissing me? Edward? Kissing? Me? Am I in the twilight zone or something? I eventually found myself kissing him back. The electricity between us was amazing, soothing. I felt like I was finally back home…but this was wrong. Amazing myself, I pulled myself away.

"It isn't fair Edward." I whispered. "It isn't fair to you, it isn't fair to Jane, and it isn't fair to me." he was quiet for a long time. He regretted, but so did I, so it shouldn't hurt right? Well it did anyway.

I got up and walked up the stairs.

"Bella are you okay?" I heard Esme ask. I ignored her and went to the stairs leading to my old bedroom. I was at the very top of the stairs when I heard Edward.

"Bella! Bella, wait!" he called.

"Come on Edward, haven't you done enough damage?" I heard Jasper snap.

"Back off Jasper!" Edward snapped back. "Bella"I wont let you hurt her again!" I heard Jasper shout.

"Jasper, stop." I heard Esme say quietly. Edward walked to the stairs and when he saw me he smiled a little.

"Bella, I-" he started but I cut him off.

"You're sorry. You didn't mean it. You regret it. We need to forget it. I understand it.

"No Bella that's not what I was going to say." he walked forward till he was in front of me.

"Bella," he bit his lip a little. "We were together weren't we? In high school?" my eyes widened and I opened my mouth.

"Don't lie to me Bella. We were together in high school for a little while, and then you broke it off. I remember."

*gasp!* wow. Who saw that one coming? Woo! I am on a roll! Not to toot my own horn but…beep, beep, beep!
