A/N: Sorry that I haven't updated in a while...lives been busy for me (or us). Well, this chapter isn't all that great...I needed something to lead up to the next. Its just a little rushed and if its really disapointing, I will rewrite it later. Hopefully the next chapter will make up for this one...because I worked really hard on it! So...where we left off?

-While Bella is talking to Sam and Jacob, she passes out...or nearly does. Jake rushes her to the Cullen's, knowing that they are the only ones that can possibly save her. From here, you will read from Edward's POV (because Bella is kinda knocked out and doesnt know whats going on...I guess you could say). And sorry...I've never been good at summaries.

Enjoy! - Annie


Chapter 6. Dieing

Edward's View

I stared at Alice rummage through her wardrobe. "Why are you here?" she asked, eyeing me carefully. "Why aren't you with Bella today?"

"Jake…and the others are here from La Push…"

"Enough said, I understand."

"I don't really want to interfere. Bella wants to straiten things out between them." I said.

"Well, if you going to just sit there…mind offering some help?" she asked. I knew that it wasn't a hassle to her, so I just smirked. "Nah…I'll just watch."

"Ha ha…" she grumbled. "So, do you-"

I suddenly realized she had frozen. "Alice!?" I called. She dropped her clothes she was holding. Unmoving, her eyes focused out the window. She was having a vision…

She quickly snapped out of it and grabbed me. "Edward! Get Carlisle!"

"What's going on! Is it Bella?!" I asked.

"Yes! She's in trouble."

"How?!"

"She passed out or something…Jacob is bringing her here! Now!"

"Jacob?!"

I immediately jumped to conclusions and ran out the door. Before I could make it down the steps, I saw Jacob with Bella in his arms.

"What happened…" I growled.

"I don't know…I brought her here for help!" He said, not looking me in the eye.

I quickly took Bella away from him. Carlisle and Esme came out the front door, Alice following.

"Bring her in Edward…Hurry." Carlisle seemed calm, but his eyes told another story.

Jacob stepped forward, hesitating. I stared directly at him and turned to walk away.

"Edward, he did nothing…I saw what happened." Alice said. But I didn't want to hear it. Finally I turned around, and nodded that he could come in. Jacob kept his eyes down as he passed me. We walked inside, rushing her to a room.

"Here, take her to my room…put her on the bed." Alice spoke again.

And so I did. Everyone rushed around Bella…everything was happening so quickly.

"E-Edward?" She whispered.

I hushed her, brushing her face. Jacob ignored us and I knew of his jealousy.

I stood around, wishing there was something I could do. Jacob stood a good distance away from us, especially me. Moments later, I pulled Jacob out of the room, leaving Carlisle to care for Bella.

"Thank you…again." I said, stopping outside the door.

"You know that you're not the only one who cares about her…"

"Jacob…I'm not here to start a fight…I owe you so much for doing this."

"You know I love her too…And I now that you know this…You can read minds." He spat.

"I know…" I said.

"But she deserves you more…and I know this. I'll always envy you, Edward…And I also owe you for taking care of her. Or I could never at least have her as a friend."

"And when I failed to do so…you did. That's why I'm saying thank you."

Jacob became foul again. "It was never for you though…I only thought of her…"

The door we stood by flew open. "Edward! Come quick!" Esme called, pulling me and Jacob inside.

All the eyes of my family stared at me as I walked back in. "Edward, you'll have to do it…" Carlisle finally spoke.

"What-"

"Yes…"

"But you said she'd die! She won't make it!"

"She's not making it now! Either way…we can still lose her!"

"What…do what? What's he gonna do!" Jacob asked.

Alice bit her lip…but no one answered Jake.

I stared at Bella's figure struggling on the bed. "Edward…we hold no other options."

"What's going on?!" Jacob roared.

"He…has to change her…" Alice mumbled slowly.

It took a while for him to take it in. "What?! You know better than I do about the treaty! No!" Jacob was furious…shaking from head to toe.

"Didn't you hear Carlisle? We don't have a choice!" Emmett cut in.

"No…You can't- I won't let you!"

"Alice! Hold him!" I yelled. Alice, Emmett and Jasper grabbed a hold of the Jake. There was the sound of an explosion. And instead of Jacob, there stood a giant wolf. He struggled only for a while...he knew he stood no change against three or more vampires.

I walked up to Bella's side. Her face was twisted into an expression of pain.

"Edward…You have to do it now." Carlisle said.

The gigantic wolf didn't proceed to fight. Instead, he lied on the floor whimpering. Tears were streaming from the poor creature's eyes.

I focused only on Bella then. All sound was drowned out…the crying of Jake, Esme and Carlisle's voices. Everything was silent, except for Bella's heart. I brushed her hair and stared into her face…

'I'm dieing…' she thought.

"Don't quit on me, Bella." I said, hoping she could hear me.

'Edward…Where's Edward…?'

"I'm right here, sweetheart…"

'I-I can't hold on…'

"Just a while longer…"

'It's over…'

"Bella?! No!"

'I love you…so much, Edward…" A single tear slid down her face… 'Good bye...'

"Bella!" I pulled the hair away from her neck to show her smooth, pale skin. My lips lingered above her for a moment. I finally leaned over and kissed her…and then, slowly, I sunk my teeth in.

She took in a sharp breathe. I could feel her warm blood run down my throat. She tasted…so good. But I knew what I had to do. I sank in deeper to let the venom flow through. The silence was broken by a scream; her scream. Her voice echoed with such agony and pain. I forced myself away from her, thankful I kept control.

I listened to her heart beat. It was deep and slow…and gradually getting softer. Images in her mind flashed through mine. Pictures of her family, the Blacks, us, James….and when I left. What she had felt…

They slowly began to fade…

I started to set her down on the bed before she spoke. "Don't leave…" she choked. Her voice started to drift…and her breathes were short. I grasped her hand and I could feel her pulse…

It slowed; the sound of her heart became quiet…and then, ceased to beat entirely.


A/N: Okay…so, like I said, the beginning of thing was rushed. I don't know about you but when I read this I noticed it…I just needed a chapter to get the story moving again. Don't worry…If it really sucked that badly, I'll rewrite it! lol

Please review!!! Thanks so much guys!
