Three days later and we are still sitting her on the edge of the property. Jasper woke me up a few times so that I could let the others now that I was still there but he turned me into a reverse zombie. Sort of like the last time I went like this but I stayed sleeping a lot and woke up every couple of hours to eat. The only time he let me wake up was so that he could feed. It was a bit boring at times when everything would go quiet. The others come out every couple of hours. Peter said that Maria was worried about me because of the amount of sleep I was having after he was told that Jasper came into the house and spoke to her saying that I was just processing everything and I would wake up when I felt that I had gone over everything in my life. He told her that a lot of stuff had gone on and the last time this happened I didn't come round for three months but that time I didn't really sleep.
"Jasper would you like to talk to Bella while she's doing all this?" Edward asked when the fourth day started.
"You know what I think that I will." Jasper said.
"Bella pull your shield down now." Edward said looking for the first time in my direction since I got here.
"What do you mean by that Edward?" Jasper asked him.
"I think what he meant is that I've been here since you decided to leave me alone. When I went to sleep the other night so I know what you and Edward have spoken about. Oh and Edward I heard that comment about your mate as well the other day. The only time I wasn't here was when you let me up to let the others know that I was still alive." I said moving closer to where he and Edward were sitting.
"Did you know that she was here?" Jasper looked to Edward.
"Yeah I've known the whole time. She wasn't even disgusted at us once she heard all about past and future hunting trips we have planned and everything. The only thing she didn't hear was about our sex lives well your past sex life and my future sex life." Edward said.
Jasper just groaned and put his head in his hands.
"Oh suck it up Jasper. I've had a lot of fun these last couple of days. Learning a lot about you and the guys. I have lots of dirt on them all." I said.
"You could have told me that she was here Edward." Jasper said.
"But then where would I have heard everything that you guys were talking about?" I said. "You both would have given me edited versions of what you've been talking about Edward I'm really going to miss you after you're reborn."
"I'll miss hanging out with you guys as well but it won't be for a while and you will still be able to hear me Bella. I won't have all my memoires until after I'm turned. As I said before you will be the only person to recognise me as me when I'm in my reborn form. I won't even have my power anymore so I will have to live with that. I will have a better power and it will come in handy." Edward said coming over and hugging me. He could only do that in my 'dreams'.
"What do you mean it will come in handy?" Jasper asked.
"I'll get to that but first I have to tell you about all that is going to happen." Edward said. "Okay Bella isn't going to be able to hear my voice for roughly ten months. As soon as my voice disappears you have to put plans in motion. It might even happen sooner than twenty five years from now. You both need to be told what is going to happen.
Caius is going to be looking until about two years before I come back into your lives. So I will be eighteen when he finds out that Isabella Higginbotham is actually Isabella Swan. I think that it has something to do with Esme and Carlisle joining them around that time.
Alice won't cause many problems. Maria will be taking care of her shortly. Jasper you will get your piece of her as well. It's funny how she ends up getting caught. Her mate is subconsciously shielding her from stuff that's really important to her. He doesn't even know that he is doing it."
"Wow." Jasper and I say together.
"Isn't there anything that we can do that can stop them finding out about Isabella before you get back to us?" Jasper asks.
"No and you don't kill them when they come to try and get Bella from you. They go into hiding from the Volturi after that. It's funny the way they go into hiding but." Edward laughed out. "They hide right under the Volturi's nose and they don't even know it."
"Are you saying that Esme and Carlisle hide in Italy for over thirty years?" Jasper asked.
"Yeah and the ways they go about disguising themselves is quite fascinating. First they will be in the south pretending to be honeymooners, and then they will move north and pretend again to be honeymooners, go to college over there as well. Change their routine a few times so they don't get caught out. It's quite hilarious. When you think of all the names they could use as well." Edward said laughing again. "Especially the one that he is most famous for giving. Stregoni Benefici. That's going to be photo worthy to see Aro's face when he hears the he's back in town."
"Stregoni Benefici?" I ask.
"It's the name that Carlisle uses when he's in Italy. It's the name that is used to tell everyone that he's a good vampire when he actually isn't." Edward said.
"I never know that he used that name." Jasper said.
"He's the one that came up with it. Shame I wasn't around when the rumours started up about him." Edward said. "We were actually planning on using it the next time that we had to move which would have been to Italy ironically."
"How come you left that out of his history when you were telling it to me?" I asked Edward.
"Well that pretty simple Bella if I had told you ever name that Carlisle has used we would have been there all day." Edward answered.
"I remember when we used your name Edward. That was fun times." Jasper said.
"I forgot that we had used my name till you reminded me." Edward said. "It was around the late sixties early seventies as I recall. We were living in New York again all because Rosalie was homesick. We needed a new name for ourselves back in those days there was no such thing as the internet and we had to wipe out our records ourselves or we got our lawyer Jenks to do it.
Hey Jasper you should have all connections from us to Isabella Swan or Isabella Higginbotham erased by someone you really trust and not Jenks.
Anyway as I was saying before I got off track. It took longer back then so we had to change last names a lot. Now Jasper, Rosalie and Carlisle became the Masen's, Alice and Emmett became the McCarty's, and Esme and I became the Hales. Rose and I were not happy about changing our names to the others surname back then but there was nothing that we could do about it.
Ask Rose to show her the scars from that fight. That was a really funny sight me walking around without my leg and her without her arm for at least six months. Esme made it our punishment whenever we were home so as soon as we got home she pulled them off us and we got them back in the morning before school. Esme was really hard on us but we got over it eventually."
Jasper was laughing the whole time.
"I can't wait to see what happens when you lose both of your arms Jasper." I said giggling.
"Don't remind me Isabella." Jasper said. "I 'm just hoping that she forgets."
"Nope she will remember that." Edward said.
"Come on aren't we supposed to be getting back so that Isabella can be waking up?" Jasper said.
"But Jasper when you get back you turn me vamp remember?" I said.
"I forgot that maybe there's a way that we can change that." Jasper said looking at Edward.
"Might be the next time you run maybe. You are calm enough this way to be near her but maybe you should hunt first just to be sure." Edward said. "Then we can have a talk about what you are going to do about Esme and Carlisle on the way back home."
"Okay see you when we get back home Isabella." Jasper said.
That was the last thing either of them said to me before I found myself waking up at home.
I squealed very loudly that everyone ran into my room to see what was wrong with me.
"Jasper's coming home. Jasper's coming home. Jasper's coming home. Jasper's coming home. Jasper's coming home." I sang repeatedly.
Peter slapped his head and everyone just looked as if I had told them that someone else was coming home.
"Bella don't you mean the Major?" Charlotte asked.
"Nope. I said Jasper and I mean Jasper." I said popping the 'p' in nope.
"Bella it was going to be a surprise for everyone else that he was on his way back how did you know?" Peter asked.
"I've been hanging around Jasper and Edward for the past three days." I said rubbing my hands together.
"Hey Rose can I see your scar?" I asked.
"Please don't tell me he told you the name story." Rose said slapping her head.
"Yep.' Popping the 'p'. "Please can I see it?"
She pulled up her sleeve to show me the scar and I moved over to her to touch it, she let me because I'm always touching everyone else's.
"Emmett do you have any scars that I don't know about. I don't want to see the ones that Rose gave you either. Edward and Jasper gave me those images already." I asked.
"Nope none that you want to see." Emmett said. "Did Edward show you his scar?"
"No he didn't because he said it was on his leg." I said.
"We should leave so that Bella can get showered and dressed. Charlotte your turn today. Mary you're on breakfast duty." Peter said. "Charlotte if she comes downstairs looking like anyone else than it's you that will be in trouble."
They all went there spate ways when he said that. Half an hour later I was downstairs dressed freshly showered and waiting for Maria to come over the computer so that we could talk.
"You'll be waiting till tonight to talk to Maria sweetheart she will be getting back to her camp shortly and then they have their debriefing that takes a while." Peter said when he saw me looking at the computer. "Why don't you go wait outside for Jasper and Edward to get back it's a nice day."
As I was going out the door I thought I heard him say that Carlisle and Esme were due any day now. But I ignored it because if I was meant to hear it he would have said it louder.
My favourite book was sitting out there when I got out there. So much to tell you. It's about a girl who wouldn't speak to anyone but she meets her father at the end of it and starts talking. It is also in diary form it's a pretty good book. It's not very old but I still love it because one of Renee's male friends gave it to me when he didn't want me in the way. My only other favourite books I haven't pulled out of the box yet so I know they are somewhere around my room. I can't believe that I finally have something that is just mine and mine alone. When I was living with Charlie we had to share a bathroom and when I lived with Renee I always had to disappear so that she could have her boyfriends over.
