Sorry this is a little later than usual. I'm going to be editing from here, and I'm back in school Monday. So, I won't be able to update as much, but you can count on AT LEAST 2 updates a week.
"What did you see?"
I looked at Alice, not sure if I should answer.
"Alice, I don't-"
"Bella, it's OK."
"I saw you, you looked about 14. Late at night, in a small dark room."
She just looked at me, not saying anything.
"Alice, I-"
"It's OK, Bella. Come on, we need to talk to Carlisle about this."
We found him in his study. He smiled, as we sat down.
"Is everything OK?"
We looked at one another, before I answered him.
"I have another ability. Earlier, we were talking and I took Alice's hand. I saw something from her past. From before she was changed."
He looked at the both of us, thinking about what I'd said.
"Can we test it?"
We tried, but I couldn't see anything.
It seemed I could only see Alice's past.
"It seems to be the same as the dreams, it will only work with you."
We sat talking for a little while before going downstairs.
Mitch and Adam were bickering over something.
"What are you 2 fighting over?"
They looked at me, as I shook my head.
"Nothing. How are you?"
I sat down, next to Adam. Alice was talking to Rosalie about something.
"I'm good, what about you?"
He gave me his goofy smile, making me laugh.
"What's so funny?"
Alice walked in, sitting beside me.
"Adam is just being silly."
Adam laughed, smiling at me.
"I is."
That made us laugh, he was always being silly.
"Hey, want to go for a walk?"
I smiled at Alice, agreeing with her.
"Sure, let's go."
I got up, as Emmett walked in.
"Hey Mitch, wanna go out?"
Mitch went with Emmett, and we went out the back door. Adam went to get his laptop, playing amnesia again.
I stood looking out at the forest as Alice stood next to me.
"I'd keep and eye out for those two. Emmett is planning something."
I looked at her, we both knew what Emmett was like.
We went to the meadow, sitting together.
"Wanna practice a bit?"
I looked at her, realising she meant my ability.
"OK then."
We spent a while I practiced moving the rocks which were at the edge of the meadow.
"Alice, about earlier-"
"It's OK, Bella. I'd rather you see it, than anyone else."
I smiled, looking at her. I'd been moving the rocks around for a while, and let them drop.
"Come on."
We walked down by the river, hand-in-hand.
"What do you think Emmett is planning?"
Alice laughed, squeezing my hand.
"I'm not sure, he knows I can't see if he keeps changing his mind."
She was right, that was the only way around her visions.
"It's just Emmett, what's the worst he could do?"
A large wave from the river next to us came over us. I looked around to see Emmett and Mitch laughing.
"Told you they were planning something!"
They kept laughing, while we glared at them. Mitch was standing by the river, his hands out from throwing the wave over us.
I glared at the two of them. They just stood there laughing.
Of course, they never thought about my ability when they planned this.
I noticed a few small rocks, by our feet.
I used one, making it fly past Mitch.
We walked towards the house, hand-in-hand.
"Next time, I won't miss."
We walked back into the house, seeing Adam with his laptop, and Rosalie smiling at us.
"What did you do?"
We just looked at her.
"What do you mean?"
She shook her head.
"The look on her face, tells me you've done something."
She looked at Alice, as she spoke. I knew what she meant, it reminded me of when she'd warned Edward to keep whatever he hears to himself.
"Emmett and Mitch decided to drown us when we were walking by the river, so Bella decided to remind them about her new gift. She missed but promised she wouldn't next time."
Rosalie laughed, as we sat down. Adam moved to give us room.
"Serves him right. Trying to get around Alice is impossible."
I left Alice with them, and went to find Carlisle.
We went to his study and sat down. I wanted to talk to him about this ability.
"Why will it only work with her?"
"It's about the connection you two share. I have done some research and you may be able to show her what you see. Whether you want to do that is up to the both of you."
I'd be able to show her?
"How would I do that?"
"Well, you would need to practice. But, it seems that there is a way to show her. How do you feel when you see her past?"
I looked at him, thinking about the way I felt when I first seen it.
"Like I'm being pulled out of the present into something else. I know it's her past, I can feel it. I don't know how I know, I just do."
He nodded, understanding what I was trying to say.
"What tells you it's her, is what you need to focus on. That's her mind. Focus on that and she should be able to see what you do."
Wow, this was a lot to take in!
"I need to think about this before I talk to her. Thank you."
"Bella, wait."
I turned to look at him.
"What is it?"
I sat down, looking at him.
"Be careful with this gift. She doesn't remember what happened, and no matter how she seems, she is upset about this."
I knew he was right, and I wasn't going to say it without thinking about it.
"I will."
He smiled, and I went downstairs.
"Everything OK?"
Alice was smiling at me. She was sitting with Rosalie with Mitch on the other end of the couch.
"Yeah. What's going on?"
She laughed, looking at Rosalie.
"Oh nothing much, Adam is being an idiot as usual, and I'm plotting revenge on Emmett and Mitch."
"Now they're in for it."
Rosalie and I spoke at the same time. Making everyone laugh. I stood there watching them, thinking about my ability. Would she want that?
"Bella!"
Alice's voice brought me back to the present.
"What is it?"
She laughed, looking at Rosalie.
"This is what I was talking about."
She told her about this?
I ignored that, and looked at her. She deserved to know and to make the decision herself.
"I need to talk to you about something."
We went upstairs, and I closed the behind me.
"I was with Carlisle when I left you earlier. I wanted to ask him more about this."
She looked at me, not saying anything.
"He said …. He said, I may be able to show you what I can see."
