The next morning, Charlie swan wasn't surprised when Billy and harry called him over for a weekend trip of fishing and a bonfire. It would be nice but a little lonely. He missed Bella already. He didn't realize how much her presence impacted him, never the less he shrugged it off and continued to the black's front porch.
"hey Billy, Harry!" he shouted.
"Come on in chief." Harry said as he opened the door.
"What's going on clearwater how you are feeling?" Charlie asked as he put the beers in the refrigerator
"I'm feeling much better. The doctors got me on a new diet, so whatever fish we catch it going to have to be baked. How are you?"
"I'm good. Missing Bella a little bit, She decided to take an impromptu graduation vacation. Said she needed some me time." Charlie said gruffly as he and harry joined Billy in the living room.
"you hear that Billy? Bella went on an impromptu vacation" harry said with a forced smile. Giving Billy a sign that something was wrong.
Billy caught on and instantly excused himself outside with his cellphone. "Sam its Billy. Check with the Cullen's to see if Bella's with them. Charlie said she went on a vacation. It doesn't make sense. Why would she go on a vacation when theirs an army of vampires after her? I thought the pack and the Cullen's were guarding her."
"What! She went on vacation? No, I didn't know. I assume she was with the Cullen's. Darn it! I knew something was off during the patrol's around her house. Do we know where she Is at?"
"no we don't. like I said check with the Cullen's when you have your first meeting. I don't why she would put herself in danger like this. But look, well take care of Charlie you find out about Bella."
"Alright chief. I will do that."
…..
Edward Cullen was not happy. He still had not gotten a chance to see Bella. The night he went to try Emmet stopped him at the door and now as they drove to the clearing to meet the stupid wolves, he still hadn't seen her. He tried calling but no answer. It worried him.
"Alice have you- "
"Edward shut up! I'm trying to see the newborns and your distracting me."
He sighed. They didn't have to wait long because ten wolves appeared on the hill. No one spoke and no one moved. It wasn't until Carlisle spoke that the tension broke.
"Good morning, thank you for coming. We appreciate this alliance. As a good sign of trust is it possible one of you could show your human side? Sam perhaps you could. I'm sure it will be easier instead Edward just reading your thoughts aloud."
After a few two wolves became men. Edward refrained from growling. It was Sam uley and Jacob black.
"We need to ask you a question." Sam said with authority
"Yes Sam?"
"Bella swan. Did you guys send her on vacation?"
A hiss broke through Edwards lips. "A vacation? A vacation! Why would I send my fiancée on a vacation when theirs a bunch of newborns after her!"
"FIANCEE? FIANCEE! YOUR MARRYING HER!" Jacob shouted as he trembled with rage.
"stand down Jacob. Now is not the time." Sam ordered.
"now, you say you didn't send her on a vacation but yesterday Charlie swan said she had left the day of her graduation and - "
"Wait!" Alice said interrupting sam. "Edward Bella's going to call you in five minutes. She really is on vacation. I can see her on the beach right now."
There were growls and hisses of disapproval. "She went on a vacation. While were fighting for her life and ours! You can't be serious." Rosalie complained. She had spoken what everyone was thinking.
….
Bella was on the beach when she decided to call Edward. Alma was next to her. They were sunbathing and it was nice. She quickly dialed Edwards number, She had to get this over with if she was going to be with embry.
"Bella! Where are you! The wolves are saying you took some kind of vacation. Why would you be so reckless." Edward answered
"First of all Edward, I am not being reckless. If anything, me being away right now is for the best. Think about it you nor the wolves have to worry about protecting me for two whole weeks. You both can fully focus on training. And where I am at right now is too sunny for the newborns to hang around. Besides. I need my space Edward. I need to take a break from you, from Charlie. I just need a break. Ill see you in two weeks." With that said Bella hung up the phone leaving no room for debate or questions.
"I have to agree with Bella. With her not being here, we are able to focus 100%. So, let's get started." Jasper said as he sent out waves of calm. Mainly to Edward who was in much distress.
Sam uley nodded and the training began.
