"Edward can we go over to your house? I want to talk to all of you." I ask Edward and he looks up from the book he has been focusing on.

"Of course, is something wrong?" He says worriedly and I smile calmingly and shake my head. That's a difference, he has been so distant since my birthday.

"I just think it's time to talk about some things." I mumble as he helps me up on his back. He freezes.

"Bella if this is about getting changed-" I interrupt him by holding a hand over his mouth.

"Don't Edward." I say and he sighs and jumps out the window and runs home with me on his back.

He sets me down on my feet right before the door and opens it for me.

"Can we talk in the kitchen?" I ask out loud as we walk towards the kitchen and when I get there it is filled of my vampire family.

"Hi Bella." They say and I smile to them as I sit down.

"I want to tell you all something important." I say and they nod seriously, well everyone except Jasper since he is still gone. "Rene is… sick, psychologically. That is the real reason I came to Forks. She abused me, mostly verbally but she let her boyfriends do whatever they wanted with me…" The room is already filled with growls. "... Rosalie I know you don't think I should give up my humanity since I have the chance to have children-" She nods. "-but the thing is I can't have them. When I was 13 one of my mother's boyfriends hurt me badly and it ended in that I had to have a hysterectomy and that I… During that surgery they found out I had cancer… From today I have one year to live, I got a new test the other day and the doctors say the treatments won't help me anymore." I say and silence fills the air, then Esme swooshes up from her chair and pulls me into a hug, venom tears filling her eyes.

"Oh I'm so sorry dear." She cooes as she begin rocking me slowly. I take a few deep breaths as I let the tears fall.

"It's not over yet." I whisper and they instantly look worriedly at me. "When I…. told Charlie about everything… h-he thought I lied and he… he threw me out. He gave me till' tomorrow at noon to be out that's why I decided to tell you today. Tomorrow I'll be moving out and my doctor would like me to do one round of chemo, just to try again if it works since it worked well last time…" I say and they look tensed at me then Alice stands up.

"Do you want to sleep in Edward's room or have your own?" She asks as she walks over and grabs both of my hands gently. I look confused at her and then at the others, they nod.

"Bella we won't let you go somewhere alone, especially not when you are sick. Sweetheart it will be okay." Carlisle says as he sits down where Esme was seated a second ago. He places a hand on my cheek and I look into his liquid gold eyes. "Please come and live with us." He says and I nod a little so he hugs me gently. When we pull away he looks into my eyes, slightly calculating. "May I send after your medical records and consult with your doctor about your treatment? Or maybe I can take over if you'd like?" He asks gently and I nod a little and let a deep breath out and leans my head against his shoulder.

"I would love it if you were my doctor, dad." I mumble and he gasps and hugs me tightly, Esme looks at me with tears in her eyes and a beaming smile. "Then there is just one thing left…" I say and everyone instantly freezes.

"Is there something else wrong, honey? Are you wounded?" Edward asks as he slips his arm around my waist and pulls me away from Carlisle and up in his lap. I sigh deeply.

"Yes, there is something else… someone will probably have to help me with it-" I get interrupted by a squealing Alice hugging me tightly.

"THANK YOU, BELLA! Someone has to get his head out of his ass and the only one that can do that is probably you!" She squeals and I chuckle lightly as the others look confused at me.

"I want you to find Jasper and drag him back here so I can talk to him and explain everything." I say and they look hesitantly at each other, but Emmet grins.

"Come pixie, we are going Jasper hunting!" He bellows as he throws Alice over his shoulder and disappears through the front door. I chuckle a little and curl up against Edward's rigid frame.

"Edward what's wrong honey?" I ask and he looks down at me with worry in his eyes and I sigh. "It will be okay. If I don't survive it as a human we'll change me and then I'll stay with you forever. If it's Jasper you are worried about you should just wait and listen because I have recently figured some things out and… Edward I think I know what you have been planning since my birthday…" I say and drop my eyes to my clasped hands. He freezes completely.

"Planning what?" He asks tensed but innocently.

"You were planning on getting everyone to leave me to make sure I was out of the vampire world." I whisper and he hugs me tightly, quickly claiming my lips with his for the first time in several days. He has been so cold and distant lately but now he finally lets himself go.

"I'm sorry honey… I just… I can't leave, I can never leave you. I love you so much, love." He says almost desperately and I kiss him to shut him up and then I hug him closely.

"I don't even want you to think about it again. I can't live without you Edward." I whisper and he kisses my forehead as he hugs me.

"Never." He whispers and I smile against his shirt but then I gasp as I hear the door slam open. I look around confused and then I see Emmet sitting on top of Jasper, holding him against the floor as he struggles to get free and Alice talks calmly to him… He looks really bad, I can almost feel his pain and guilt.

"Jasper, Jasper stop fighting please." I say and he struggles a little but then he looks towards my voice and relaxes slightly. "I don't blame you Jasper, it isn't your fault. You are an empath. You feel all of the others hunger as well as your own. You didn't stand a chance! You are not weak Jasper. You are my brother and I love you. I was never afraid of you." I say and he relaxes completely and Emmet gets off him slowly. Jasper gets up to his feet and then he walks hesitant towards me and I untangle myself from Edward and meet him halfway. I hug him tightly around his waist and he starts sobbing and I rub his back.

"It's okay, everything is okay." I mumble as he cries tearlessly hugging me desperately. "I need to tell you some more things Jasper." I say and he tries to gather himself and move away but I hug him closer so he stops and lets himself cry. "I'll give you the short version. I'm unable to have children, I have cancer and I have one year left to live. Charlie kicked me out and Rene is mentally ill." I say and he hugs me closer and I can feel his protectiveness projecting to me.

"I'm sorry Bella." He whispers with a broken voice and I know he is sorry for everything so I just hug him tighter and he relaxes further into my embrace as he feels my love for him.

"I know you are Jasper." I mumble and then he pulls away a little and gathers himself, smiling slightly to me as he walks over and hugs the others. Alice hugs me tightly and kisses me on my cheek.

"Thank you Bella." She whispers to me and I nod.
