Just for a heads up, the first couple of chapters will be during summer vacation for Bella. Bella's birthday party won't be happening for a little while.
I would like to dedicate this chapter to all the wonderful people who have continued to read this series. I hope you all like it.
Chapter 2
My life had gotten back to normal. If a busy Teenage Transitional CEO, who just finished her junior year could be considered normal.
School was out for the summer. Rose, Emmett, and Jasper had graduated, and Alice had gotten to dress me up in another pretty gown for their party.
Now that it was summer, I was spending more time working on Toby's companies. It seemed like every other week I had to go somewhere for one of the companies.
The rest of my time, I spent with Edward and his family. Our two families had really seemed to merge together. What with how Rose and Emmett were Anna and Cissy's Aunt and Uncle. Besides that though we all were getting along just fine.
Jasper was working with Anna's powers, trying to find the person who had betrayed us. The traitor was still out there, and until we find him, the girls and I had to be careful.
Grandpa Ray was looking into our short list, but he wasn't coming up with anything. Despite the fact that the list of people who could have betrayed us was less than ten, we still hadn't found him or her.
Grandpa Ray had wanted us to stay away from the people on the list. He didn't want us to have any contact with them until he was sure it was safe. Sadly that didn't happen.
The incident at Toby's safe house, or rather the destruction of Toby's safe house had alerted the only other people who knew about it, that there was trouble. The seven people left on the list had gotten a hold of Grandpa Ray, and for reasons only he knew about, he told them what had happened. I guess he had hoped maybe he could catch the traitor by his reaction. That didn't work.
The seven people left on the list were dear friends of Toby. Including Toby's two best friends, Thomas, and Carlos. The other five people, he trusted his life with. He hadn't known them as long as he had known Thomas and Carlos but nevertheless, they had been his friends. I couldn't believe any of them would betray him, and when they all rushed Grandpa Ray, demanding to know what happened to Toby's safe house, none of them had given any indication that they knew anything about it.
Hopefully Jasper and Anna would be able to sort through everything soon, then we would know exactly who the traitor was.
"Come on Bella, I know you're bored but you need to stay still." Alice was putting on my business face, as I had decided to call it. The makeup was simple, and basic; I didn't understand why I needed to wear makeup to work but Alice insisted. What I really didn't understand was why she thought it was a good idea to put it on in the car.
Grandpa Ray, though wary, had agreed that I should continuing work. Toby's companies needed me, who knows what would happen if someone else took over, especially if they decided not to follow Toby's ideals, and morals.
Alice and I were heading to a meeting for the third company. According to Alice, it was supposed to be boring and interesting at the same time.
For safety purposes, Jasper and Edward came with us, but it was only the four of us. We were staying in a place in New York called Ithaca.
"Alice, Bella looks fine without makeup." Edward came to my rescue.
Alice rolled her eyes. "I'm giving Bella a more professional look."
"You're giving me a headache," I groaned. It was true, I had a headache, but Alice hadn't caused it, she was just making it worse.
My brain activity was increasing, basically meaning that my brain was being increased by the transition.
Alice ignored my comment and finished my makeup silently. Once she had everything put away she gently rubbed my head, trying to relieve some of the pain while not messing up my hair.
Edward parked the car, and helped me out. "How about dinner, after your meeting?"
I gave him a small smile; I was still feeling a bit nervous about the meeting. "That sounds great." I just barely managed to give him a kiss before Alice dragged me away.
The two of us rushed to the meeting room, only stopping to sign in at the front desk.

"So, how was the meeting?" Edward slipped a few more bites of his dinner on my plate.
We were sitting in an extravagant restaurant. I had ordered steak and steamed vegetables, and Edward had ordered the same. I would eat my food, and Edward would move bits of his food onto my plate. Edward had thought up the plan. It was quite clever really, by the time I was full it looked as if we had both finished half of our food, and I could take the rest home.
I rolled my eyes and laughed. "Well, it was boring because we were working on the budget. It didn't take me long to set it up, but the board members dragged the meeting out."
Edward grinned at me, knowingly. "Was any of it interesting, like Alice said it would be?"
My shoulders shook as I tried to stifle my laughter. "Oh yes, one of the board members was trying to up the budget. It was quite interesting to see Alice and him going back and forth on whether we needed to increase how much we spend. The irony was perfect."
He laughed with me. "You do know that that won't change anything when it comes to Alice's personal shopping."
"I know," I sighed. "She'll get me to go shopping with her, sometime soon. I'm sure."
His phone went off then, and he glanced at the text message. He shook his head. "Alice says you and her will be shopping when we get back home."
"Of course we will." I grabbed my fork and stabbed a piece of my steak.
Edward boxed up the rest of our food once I was done, and paid the bill. "What do you think of Ithaca?" He asked as we pulled out of the restaurant's parking lot.
"It's nice. Why do you ask?"
He gently squeezed my hand that he was holding. "While Alice and you were in the meeting, Jasper and I did some scouting. We're always looking for new places for us to live."
I glanced out the window. I couldn't see anything, thanks to how fast he was driving. What I had seen earlier though was nice. "So will we move here after we leave Forks?"
"We're not sure."
I turned back to him, flashing a teasing smile. "Too many options to choose from?"
He grinned, shaking his head. "No it's not that, we're just not sure what to do after Forks." He continued before I could ask what he meant. "Rose and Emmett want to spend time with their nieces, they don't plan to go back to school until Cissy starts kindergarten."
"Oh," was the only thing I could think to say.
He nodded. "As of right now, it looks like we all want to take a break, from our normal routine."
"What would we do with all the free time?" I teased.
He turned to me, and I realized we were parked in the parking lot of the hotel we were staying in. His hand brushed my cheek. "The two of us will most likely be in Alaska, with the Denalis."
My confused stare seemed to surprise him. His hand cupped my cheek. "You'll be a newborn vampire by then Bella; the Alaskan wilderness would be the safest place for you until you can control the bloodlust."
I couldn't help it, I laughed. It wasn't just a soft little giggle, no this was a full on roar. Edward didn't know what to make of my sudden laughter, he was so confused.
Once I had calmed down, I leaned over to kiss him. "Silly, you won't need to worry about me. Transitionals aren't like normal newborn vampires, most have worked on control for years. I'll already have at least a decade's worth of control."
Edward's face went from shocked to excited. "Really?"
I grinned, and his face broke into a wide smile. "You're incredible Bella." And he leaned in to kiss me.
His phone went off before we could though.
The two of us sat back in our seats rolling our eyes.
"Who is it and what do they want?" It wasn't funny how many times we were interrupted, before we could kiss.
He checked the text message and sighed. "It's from Rose, Anna is getting impatient waiting for you to call. Apparently she has a lot to talk to you about."
I sighed and the two of us got out of the car.
As soon as I had gotten inside, I grabbed my normal phone from my suitcase and called Rose.
"Auntie Bella," Anna answered happily.
"Hi sweetie. How are you?" I grabbed my pajamas and headed into the bathroom to change, and get ready for bed.
"I'm okay, guess what I did today?"
I couldn't help smiling at the excitement I could hear in her voice. "What did you do?"
"Carlisle, and I did science all day long."
I forgot what I was planning to do. "Really, which experiments did you do?" I was glad that someone was doing the science experiments with her. She really did love science, and that was awesome for someone her age. I wanted to encourage her curiosity with science, but we hadn't had time yet to look through her little science book.
"We made a lava lamp, and a cloud in a jar, and a twister in a jar, and we made a rainbow inside the house. It was so pretty Auntie, but the best one was when we made a balloon into a rocket."
"Oh wow, it sounds like you had a wonderful time with Carlisle."
"I did Auntie, we had fun."
"Did you tell him that, and did you thank him for helping you?"
"I did Auntie Bella, I promise."
I laughed. "Okay Anna, I believe you. How is your sissy doing?"
Anna giggled, laughing loudly. "Um, Cissy is, well she's…" I didn't like where this was going.
"Anna is everything okay?"
"Yes, Cissy's just, well…"
"Bella there's nothing to worry about," Rose's voice came over the phone. She must have taken it from Anna so she could tell me what was wrong.
"What's going on with Cissy?"
"She's fine Bella, she's learning how to stand on her own. She likes to stand and hold onto the back of the couch. We bought her one of those baby walkers, but she can't be in it unless someone is there with her."
From the tone of her voice I knew that Rose was trying to get me to understand something that might have been obvious, but at the moment I couldn't think of what it could be. "Rose, it's late, would you just tell me what's wrong?"
"She's fast Bella, and sometimes she moves too fast and it causes the walker to tip over."
Understanding finally dawned on me and I groaned.
"Bella, are you alright?" Edward called worriedly through the bathroom door.
No I was not alright. My baby cousin who could crawl away from me at a speed that I couldn't catch her, was now starting to show the first signs of starting to walk. I groaned again, which only caused Edward to worry more. I heard him call for Alice.
"Bella, don't worry about it. Everything is going to be fine." Rose kept her voice calm, I knew she was telling me the truth.
I took a deep breath but before I could answer, Alice knocked on the door. "Bella, can I come in. Edward said there was something wrong with you."
I covered the phone with my hand so I could answer Alice. "Yeah, I have an eight month old that is freaking me out."
I heard Alice's soft laughter and knew that I had taken care of that problem. I turned back to the phone. "Thanks Rose, I really needed to hear that."
"You're welcome Bella. Now I need to put the girls to bed, so I'll let you go. Here's Anna again."
"Bye Rose, see you tomorrow."
"I got to tell you bye bye Auntie Bella. Uncle Emmett is going to tell me a bed time story. Love you, sleep well. See you tomorrow."
"I love you too Anna. See you tomorrow." Once I had hung up I laughed. Anna, that sweet little girl could make me laugh, just by being her sweet self. She loved making people laugh, and I was so glad she was happy enough to laugh. Who would have thought that we could be this happy so soon after the loss we had had.
I quickly finished getting ready for bed, and went to see my worried mate.
Edward swept me into his arms as soon as I had exited the bathroom. "Bella, you worry, too much."
I laughed, I couldn't help it.
"Hey," he said sounding hurt. "I never said that I don't. I know that I worry too much as well."
That made both of us laugh. We laughed together for a while after climbing into bed. His arms wrapped around me, while I rested my head against his chest. Eventually we were able to calm down.
Edward kissed the top of my head. "I love you Bella."
"I love you too."
"Get some sleep, we're going to have a long day tomorrow."
I nodded, letting my eyes close. What neither of us knew was just how long a day tomorrow would be.
