What Now?

"So..." Alice started, "What now?" Everyone turned to stare at her shocked.

"Ha, so the great fortune teller doesn't know what's going to happen next!" Jake snorted. Then he looked over at Seth, who had me on his lap and was refusing to let me move from his tight grasp. "But...it's a good question..."

Thoughts started whirling in an incomprehensible cacophony. I held my aching head in my hands.

"Everyone..." Edward put in slowly "Please, can you stop thinking so loud... You're giving Raya a headache." He gave me a sympathetic look.

Seth growled at everyone else as he saw the pained look on her face. I laughed slightly as everyone else's sounds faded very slightly.

*It helps if you focus on one mind.* Edward thought helpfully.

*Thank you* I answered silently.

I focused on Seth's mind for a second only to be frustrated by his chanting of, *She's actually alive...Mine...*

I sighed and decided to focus on Alice's instead. Her mind was calm and peaceful without her visions. *So much better* I mumbled in my mind. The other's minds became a low background murmur.

"As for what we're going to do..." Edward started, then he nodded to Carlisle.

"Well, we have decided to stay here temporarily so...We can make her a transfer student into the school my kids attended. She can't go back to living in her house but she is completely welcome here." He said thoughtfully.

"Would that be alright with you?" he looked over at me. I bit my lip gently in thought.

"Yes..." I said slowly, "Yeah, that'll be best." I confirmed, more sure. Seth's grip on me tightened, but as always, not enough to hurt... Then again...I wasn't sure how easily I could be hurt at the moment.

"Well, that was easier that I thought it would be." Embry chucked.

"By the way..." Bella suddenly started, "Is she still imprinted?" Everyone started in shock and turned their eyes to Seth. He was busy staring dazed and fiddling with my hair. I rolled my eyes and snapped my fingers in front of his face.

"Wake up Seth. They have a question for you." I said gently. Then I bit my lip harder in worry.

"What...?" He replied hesitantly. I turned around so he couldn't see my face.

"Are you still imprinted on the bloodsucker?" Leah asked in a cold voice.

Shock registered on his face as he turned to gaze at me.

*Why wouldn't she?* came the loud thought as his arms squeezed me.

Edward examined him for a long moment, then smiled. "Well...It looks like even a vampire is able to be An Imprinted."
