Authors Note: I need more reviews. I am about half way done with this story. YYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY.

It had been a week since I had asked Bella to marry me, and she hadn't told Charlie yet. She was sure that something bad was going to happen. That was only part of the problem though. What everyone wanted to know was whether or not she was going to tell her parents about us being vampires and that she was going to be one.

Alice, Carlisle, Jasper, and I said that she should tell them and Bella, Emmet, Rosalie and Jasper were on the don't tell side. Jasper was on both sides to make sure that everyone stayed calm and he didn't want to be out of Alice's good graces, by joining an opposing team.

Esme wanted Bella to do what she thought was best.

"Bella think of this reasonably. You need to tell him that we are going to change you."

"And have you carted away and me sent to Florida. No I don't think so."

"Come on Bella. It would not be that bad." I wanted this over and done with. She swore that I would not get any kisses unless it was started by her. That was just very unfair.

Then Rosalie spoke, "You underestimate mothers. When it comes to there daughters they are emotional basket cases and have a tendency to blow everything way out of proportion."

"But I saw that it was going to be okay. Don't you remember Bella? You said that you would never bet against me, yet here you are, betting against me."

Alice was starting to feel that she was out of the loop because she had had no visions about the coven. This made me mad because how was I supposed to know what to protect Bella from, when I didn't know anything at all.

"Alice you know who the future is always changing." She nodded. "Well that is how my mom is. She takes 2 hours just to decide what color sock she should wear, so that it would match this color shoe. Even if you see this going over well, I can guarantee that it won't. Trust me. I had to live with her 17 years out of my 18 years of life."

"Esme please convince Bella that there is no chance that we would let something bad happen to Bella, concerning her mother."

"Carlisle, don't drag me into this. I told you the only thing I am going to do is support her in her decision."

"Well, if everything is going to go okay with my mom then what about my dad? He is a police man. He is the chief. If he pulled a couple strings he could get the FBI out here. I don't want to be the reason that you have to move. It would be unfair."

"Oh yeah like disappearing without a trace would be any better."

"They have a point there."

"Shut up Emmet."

I could see the wheels turning in her head. She loved her parents too much to just abandon them without a trace and no explanation.

"Fine. We will tell them. You realize if anyone had come up with that in the beginning then we wouldn't have had to have this fight in the first place."

We all looked somewhere else. So we hadn't thought of that before. If I had known that that was all that it took then I would have done that a long time ago and all of this could have been avoided.

As I drove Bella home she was silent and I could tell that she was worrying. So was I. What was I going to do? Charlie might not be a problem but I was certain that Renee would be. There was no doubt about that.

When I drove home I wondered what was going to happen.

I walked into Alice's bedroom and knocked. I had forgotten to knock once and lets just say that I never forgot again.

"Alice."

"Hold on."

There was the rustle and then the door opened.

"What do you want?"

"Am I interrupting something?" I smirked at this. I had done this before and I was happy to do it again. Alice had interrupted me and Bella so many times in a short amount of time that it was sad.

"No." This was from Jasper who was reading on the bed.

"Yes." Alice who was looking a little ticked off.

"I don't care. Alice have you seen anything definite about Charlie. I am a little worried about what will happen when we tell him and Renee."

"No I haven't seen anything definite."

I groaned. "This is not going to go over well."

"Don't worry Edward; I am sure that everything will go over fine. There is nothing to worry about."

I glanced at my watch. "I have to go now. She is going to tell them tomorrow. You had better have your cellphone on. If you see anything then I want to know the second that you can tell me."

I walked out of the house and then ran. I loved to run. It was second nature to me. I let me feet take me where I was going and didn't have to worry about a thing. There was a freedom in it that couldn't be achieved by anything else.

I made it to Bella's house rather quickly, and climbed through her window.

"You know that you usually have good timing." What does she mean usually? So I did the only thing that I could; I agreed. "Well right now was not one of those times."

I was still at lost as to what she meant and then I realized that she had been going to sleep. "I'm sorry. You were about to go to sleep and I kept you up."

She nodded and then I walked over to her bed. I picked up a corner of her sheets and slid under. She rolled over and cuddled into my chest. The same way that she would never get used to the way I am I would never get used to her.

I would never not be shocked when she told me she loved me. I would always be surprised when she kissed me. I would never get used to it that someone would willingly cuddle to me that was not a vampire. It was a miracle, and I was going to take very good care of it.

"What am I going to tell Charlie?"

"Well you could tell him that you are getting engaged and that this is what you want and whether or not he agrees, you are still going to go through with it. Then while he might still be in shock you should tell him about the vampire thing. If he doesn't believe you then you can call and I will be there with Carlisle to prove to him that vampires are in fact real."

"That sounds like that could work. But only in theory. I doubt that that would go over the way that you see it going."

"Of course it will. You forget that I have Alice on my team. Therefore I know what is going to happen." I was getting better and better at these lies.

"Oh yeah. Well if I am to do this tomorrow then I had better go to sleep."

"I agree." She closed her eyes and then fell asleep.

I envied her. I wish that I could let go of my problems rather then think of them by being able to sleep into a state of unconsciousness. All night I watched her sleep. I watched as she breathed and told me that she loved me.

All night I held her to me and felt my body absorb her body heat, making my normally cold body temperate. I thanked whoever was out there for the miracle that I had been blessed with and then awaited the day.

I had left when she woke up so that she could tell Charlie about us.

I walked into the house and it was insane. Apparently there had been an all important football game and Emmet had been watching. He had been cheering for the team that lost and when they lost he had an argument with the whole living room. Now he had to clean it up by himself.

"Shut up Edward."

"I am allowed to laugh at you. I am not the one who has to clean up the mess they made after demolishing out living room."

"It wasn't my fault. If they had just run another-"

"Emmet no more excuses, just clean."

He grunted and said something about women.

After several minutes Alice stiffened.

"We need to leave."

"Why? What happened Alice?"

"Well Charlie didn't take the news to well and so he called a psych ward and they are coming to pick us up. They should be here soon. Personally I don't want to go back to an asylum so could we please go."

We nodded. "We had better go to Bella's house. It seems that Charlie is going to need some convincing."

We ran out of the house, through the woods and then into Bella's house.

"I'll keep a lookout to make sure that they don't come here. You guys can get in from the kitchen. Keep Bella safe."

They entered the house and I went to the roof. If they needed to protect Bella then I knew that they would. Why couldn't Charlie just take the information calmly?

I was halfway listening to the conversation downstairs and then it seemed almost comical so I paid attention.

"Get the hell out of my house."

"Mr. Swan. We would like to talk to you calmly and rationally. If you would be ever so kind then you would please put the gun down."

"Jasper, could you."

"What are you doing? You are not doing anything to me."

"Chief Swan all I am going to do is calm you down. You won't feel a thing and I won't even touch you." That probably wasn't the best thing to say to him.

"You had better get away from me, and no I am not going to calm down. This is my house and you have done something to my daughter. It was your son. Edward. He made her think that your family is vampires."

"Chief Swan I am glad to say that both your daughter and my son are correct. We are indeed vampires. Now if you would put the gun down then we can talk like civilized people."

Gun! He had a gun. Why did he have a gun?

"Great. You are a doctor. Why would you believe this nonsense?"

All of a sudden Alice was screaming my name in her head.

'EDWARD. He is going to shoot and hit Bella.' This got my attention. I opened her window and climbed through. I made my way as fast as I could down the stairs and to where they were.

"Dad can you please put the gun down. You are starting to scare me."

Alice was in front of Bella, but if Charlie shot it would hit her anyway. Alice was at the wrong angle.

A second later Charlie shot the gun. I stepped from the stairs and in front of Bella and Alice. The bullet hit me and I had to admit that it was definitely not a good feeling. A second after realizing what he had done Charlie fainted and then so did Bella.

Carlisle was looking at her and making sure that she was okay. We had all heard her heart slow down and so we were worried too.

A few minutes later her eyes opened.

"Are you okay? I can't detect anything wrong with you but your heart slowed down very dramatically. I was worried for a minute."

"I'm fine other then the fact that my dad shot my fiancée and his sister and nearly me. Other then that I am fine." She got up. "How is my father?"

"He is fine. I think that he believes us now, but I have to say that that was quite a shock. When I wanted you to explain to him that we were vampires I meant to talk not make him hysterical." He was kidding, but it was good advice all the same.

"Well I got the job done."

She walked over to the phone and called off the people who had been sent after us.

She walked into the living room and then saw Charlie. She carefully sat down.

"Dad?" He looked at her. "Are you okay?"

I couldn't even read his mind. He wasn't thinking anything. It literally was just a blank space. Maybe we shouldn't have told him.

"So let me get this right. You are getting married and your fiancées family is vampires." She nodded. "Anything else?"

"Yeah. In order for me and Edward to be together I have to become a vampire too."

"After this I think that I can handle anything." I didn't doubt him.

"Oh dad." She hugged him.

"Is this what you really want Isabella?"

"More then anything."

"Then I give you my blessing, and I hope that you have a good life together. But you have to promise me something."

"What?"

"Don't be a stranger." She stared crying.

'Humans. Always crying for weird reasons.'

I glared at Jasper and he shrugged his shoulder as if to say. What?

"I promise Daddy." She crawled into his arms and cried. They just held each other and stayed like that. I knew by the thoughts of my family that we all felt that we were intruding in a very personal moment for them.

"How are you going to tell your mother?" I groaned in my head. If this was how Charlie reacted then I wondered if I would even be alive by the time that Renee was done with me.

"Over the phone. At least she won't react like you did. She doesn't own a gun." Yet.

"Why don't you go do that? I want to talk to Carlisle about this whole vampire thing." She got up and walked over to us.

She came over and I enveloped her into a hug. "Well, personally I think that my way would have been better. Being shot at is not the most comfortable thing in the world."

"Ha bloody ha. Why did you do that anyway?"

"Because of Alice. She came over to you because she had a vision that Charlie was going to freak out and accidentally shoot you. I can't have my fiancé shot. So now you have to talk to your mom."

"Well at least she will be better then Charlie. She won't shoot you."

"Yet."

"Of course yet. She will go out and buy a gun. Then she will drive here form Washington, shoot you and take me with her back to Florida." She was being sarcastic I knew, but I didn't doubt that she would do that.

"Now who is the sarcastic one? Go call your mother."

"Will you stay with me?"

"Of course." I had no place that I would rather be.

AN2: YAY. Another chapter done. I am so happy. This was so cool. Review, be pushy. I insist. Do anything that you have to, just do it.
