Chapter 2:Decision

Thursday night I couldn't sit still. The next day was going to be important. Fist, and most important, Edward would be back. But also, I would be able to find out if the elders would allow Edward to break the treaty.

I had told Charlie that no one was home when I went to La Push on Wednesday, but I told him I was going to try again Friday.

"Be sure to call first, Bells. It'd be a waste of gas and time if they're not home again." Charlie said as I made my way upstairs for bed.

"Yeah. Goodnight Dad."

" 'Night, Bells."

I closed my bedroom door with a click and turned on my small CD player. My room was instantly filled with my lullaby, played by my Edward. I put on my pink flannel pajamas and climbed under my comforter. I felt oddly warm without Edward holding me.

As my lullaby ended, I fell asleep. I had a dream that I was running through the woods at an inhuman speed shouting for Jacob.

I was coming into a clearing when I saw a huge russet colored wolf laying in the grass.

I woke to Charlie shaking me. "Bella! Bella!" He was shouting.

"Jeez dad, I'm awake. Where's the fire?" My voice sounded hoarse.

"You were screaming bloody murder and calling Jacobs name." He still sounded a little panicked.

"Sorry, dad." I said, plopping my head on the new pillow Edward had gotten me when mine was stolen. "I was having a bad dream."

"Oh." He stood up and mumbled to the door. "Never thought I'd say this, but I really wish that boy never left…"

I smiled when he closed the door. The CD had stopped while I slept, so I reached over in the darkness and pressed the play button again.

I woke up to a surprisingly bright room. Looking outside I saw the sun drying up puddles from the previous days down pour.

I quickly showered and got ready. Peaking out the window, I saw Charlie's police cruser trudging down the road.

Billy was expecting me so I didn't need to call. I grabbed my jacket and threw it in the passenger seat, just in case.

Rumbling my truck up to the little house, it looked oddly vacant. I saw a note on the door and let my truck idle as I went to see what it said.

Bella,

Please meet me as Sam and Emily's.

Billy.

His messy handwriting was a little tough to read, but I ran back to my protesting truck and threw it in reverse.

I vaguely remembered the way to Sam's little house, and I found it easily. Emily stepped though the door when I shut off my truck. She waved, half her face lighting into a happy smile.

I followed her into the familiar kitchen and looked at all the faces suddenly on me. Billy was there, as well as Sam, Old Quil Atera, and Sue Clearwater.

I could feel their eyes boring into me, judging me.

"What's going on?" I heard Embry shout as he slammed the door. He and Quil made their way into the kitchen. They stopped dead when they saw me. "Oh, it's you." He spat.

"Now boys," Billy warned. "I invited her here." They were still glaring as they moved to lean against the wall opposite me. "Bella," Billy redirected attention from the boys back to me. "We have discussed your situation and-"

"What situation?" Embry interrupted. "Why are we discussing the leach-lover at all?"

"Embry!" Sam shouted. "Shut up!" Instantly Embry's voice was caught in his throat and I heard him growl.

"Thank you, Sam." Billy sounded tired and I wondered if he had a hard time sleeping, not knowing where Jake was. "Now, Bella. We have come to an agreement, and it would probably be best to discuss this with the Cullen's, but seeing as how they are not here, and it involves you more than them, I guess, we will work things out through you." I was shaking. I looked at Emily's warming face and she smiled, putting her arm around me in an attempt to relax me.

"we have decided to let him change you, if you are so determined." Sam spoke. "But under one condition, and one condition only."

His voice was grim. I was happy, giddy that I was eliminating one complication with me becoming a vampire.

"Wha- What condition?" I stumbled and I heard Quil stifle a laugh.

"You, and the Cullen's, must leave Forks before you are changed, and you can never return." Embry and Quil left the room and I could hear them cheering and laughing. Apparently the idea of no more vampires in Forks was something they found exciting.

"Oh." Realization dawned on me. I knew that I would never be able to talk to Charlie again, but I would now never be able to even see him, to watch him.
