I am very, very sorry for taking that long on chapter 13! It was inexcusable, unfair and almost criminal! So here is the next chapter, I hope it satisfies you ;)
Alice's POV
I was out hunting again with Jasper when I had one of my visions:
Edward stormed into the house breaking Tanya's door with a push of his hand. Tanya was there lying on the bed talking on the phone to Lauren
"I don't regret it she so deserved it— Oh Edward! What a surprise! Lauren I'll call you back later." Tanya snapped her cell phone shut "So… how may I help you?" She stood up from the bed and draped herself over Edward's shoulder.
"Get off me!" Edward snarled
I snapped out of my vision shocked, I know he didn't like Tanya but I didn't think he hated her this much!
"Jasper!" I called into the forest. In a second he was right next to me holding me close
"What's wrong?" Jasper asked pulling me even closer. I looked up into his eyes, which were filled with worry
"We need to get to the house now!" I told him, he understood right away. We ran as fast as we could toward the house, we got there right when Edward broke Tanya's door down. I watched my vision play out before my eyes. It was hard to believe this was the gentle Edward who picked Bella up from the ground, cradled her when she was sleeping, played Esme's favorite song on his piano, helped Carlisle at the hospital, played video games with Emmett, watched football with Jasper, and help Rosalie and I with shopping bags. This Edward looked like he was about to kill Tanya, I have never seen him this angry.
"Tanya, go back to Alaska." Edward hissed, by then all the family was in Tanya's room
"Edward what is going on?" Carlisle asked
"Tanya slapped Bella and told her that we didn't want her around and to stay away from us!" Edward growled
"What!" I screeched "How dare you!"
"Bite me!" Tanya sneered, that's when I slapped her. Hard. Right across the face. We all stood there in shock at what I just did.
"Girls!" Esme scolded. I stuck my tongue at Tanya—very mature right? Tanya scowled at me.
"Tanya is that true?" Carlisle asked calmly.
"Yeah, so?"
"Tanya we don't hurt humans and Bella mean's a lot to this family she's almost part of it." Carlisle said sternly
"As your daughter-in-law!" Tanya sneered, shooting a look at Edward. Edward had a guilty look on his face.
"You've kissed her already and you've slept in her bed! She's human Edward!" Tanya shouted
"I'm not going to hurt her!" Edward shouted back
"I don't care if you hurt her, what about the Volturi? Then what?" Tanya challenged, smiling, knowing she'd won this fight. Edward looked down to the floor
"They won't find out." Edward looked back up, strait into her eyes. Tanya's smile grew bigger.
"Really?" She grinned
"Tanya, enough! If you cannot handle being with Bella you will leave." Carlisle interrupted, serious. I looked toward Edward he had a pained look on his face, he was probably thinking of the Volturi.
"NO! I mean, I can handle Bella. We'll be BFF's before the week is over!" Tanya gave Carlisle a fake smile.
"The rest of us are going hunting this weekend. You can stay and watch Bella while we're gone." Esme suggested
"Umm… Sure." Tanya agreed unenthusiastically
"Then it's settled." Carlisle said ending the argument, we all walked out of her room when Carlisle noticed the door.
"And Edward please buy a new door for Tanya." Edward nodded then ran up to his room. I let go of Jaspers hand so I could follow Edward.
"I'll be right back." I whispered in Jazz's ear. I ran up the stairs and knocked on Edward's door, gently. When he didn't answer I pushed open the door to find him sitting on the bed, he had his head in his hands muttering to himself,
"Edward don't listen to anything Tanya said, Bella will be fine." I rubbed soothing circles on his back. Maybe I should have brought Jazzy with me…
"Alice, but what if the Volturi do find out? I'm an idiot, I shouldn't interact with Bella, we should move away again." Edward thought
"Edward, don't think like that! Bella would be heartbroken if you left her, she won't be able to stand it if you two get separated again and neither will you. And the Volturi won't find out, they're halfway across the world!" I handed him some clothes "Go get ready and get back to Bella." Edward grabbed the clothes and stood up
"Thanks Alice and I'm glad you slapped Tanya, although I shouldn't be." Edward let out a weak laughed.
"I glad I slapped her too, I don't regret it!"
Edward's POV
After changing I ran outside egger to get back to Bella. A lot of what Tanya said tonight made me worry that I was putting Bella in too much danger but I couldn't stand to leave her again. I knew I was being selfish but I loved her too much. I hopped back through Bella's window and lied down next to her. Then Bella began talking in her sleep again
"Get the green polka-dotted strawberries!"
"Run! Go! Swim! Jump!"
"Ah! They're evil little boogers!"
"Help, they've got me!" I pressed my face into Bella's pillow to muffle my laughter. She always knew how to make me smile, evidently, even in her sleep! How I loved her so much, I would do anything for her. Right then and there I swore to myself I would never let any one of anything hurt her, not even myself. I kissed her lightly on her forehead then whispered
"I love you Isabella Swan, sweet dreams."
I'm not that happy with the end but I guess its okay. Again I'm sorry the last chapter took so long! I feel so horrible; I can't believe I did that! I'll never do it again, I pinky swear! Alright please review!
Love,
Grace
