Summuary: Edward about her non descriptive visions all of which she can't see Bella at all. And Alice is trying to make her vision of Edward heading to Forks come true in this chapter.
Previously on Love is a Complicated Thing: 'I have been looking for Bella since the beginning of my hunting trip...' "Ali-"she cut me off before I could chaste her for looking for her. 'And I haven't been able to find her anywhere.'
I felt my whole world stop.
Chapter 8
E.P.O.V
"WHAT?" I fumed not even bothering to keep my voice down. She looked up, still calm and collected not at all as I imagined myself right now. Thinking of Bella not being seen in her visions, that's just not possible. I mean I know Bella is immune to a few 'gifts' but never Alice's, so how could this be? A million thoughts ran through my mind but only one of them really hit home plate. What if she's de… NO! How could I have even thought such a thing, she can't be. No I know she isn't!
"Edward?" I felt a cool hand, similar to my own, gently touch my shoulder. I looked down to see Alice looking up at me, concern in her recently dosed golden eyes and her mind reeling with answers to all my unspoken questions. I must have spaced out for a moment. "Are you okay?" I turned around and slowly walked over to my couch sitting down gently and then closed my eyes and gritted my teeth. After what seemed an eternity to me, I was finally calm enough to open them once more. Alice was still over by the door looking anxiously around. I'm ready Alice. 'Are you sure I know it's going to be very hard to hear what I have to say I mean hell I haven't…' "I said I was ready Alice."
I looked up. Alice was taking a big breath and her eyes were rolled back. 'Okay then here it goes'.
"Alice what exactly do you think is wrong?" I asked. 'Edward wait a minute I know this is harder on you but how do you think it is on me? She was my sister and best friend. Please…"
"I'm sorry Alice; it's just that I can't help it. I mean thinking that she's… well you know."
"I know, and I'm ready." She paused the continued "it first was a few weeks ago, when you were on a hunting trip with Jasper and Emmett, I was bored and anxious, so I decided to look in on Bella, you know just to see if she was okay. But when I did, there was nothing, it was black."
"Wait, what do you mean?" I asked.
'I mean exactly what I'm saying Edward. Whenever I look there's just black, like I can't see anything. Other time's its black but I can hear some voices even sometimes laughter.'
I let out a huge sigh of relief. The only thing I could think of was 'she's not dead!' I mean she couldn't be, there was laughter in Alice's vision (no matter how vague and indecisive the vision was, I now know Bella is alive.
'Sorry to break up your little feast Edward, but we still need to find out about why my visions of her are black.' I groaned.
"You know there's only one way to find out if she's really okay. I mean I know you all rely on my visions but sometimes…"
"I'm going" I stood up and brushed off invisible lint of my faded jeans. "What?" Alice exclaimed, surprise, happiness and confuse all clearly visible on her pale face.
"I said I was going." I stated flatly. A jubilant smile slowly made its way upon Alice's face. 'Why now, I thought you were afraid to corrupt her."
"I am. But I'm more frightened of not knowing" 'not knowing what' Alice questioned in my mind. "Not knowing if she's okay, not knowing if something has gone wrong, not knowing…"
'Go on' Alice encouraged silently. I took a big unneeded breath and looked up into her eyes. "Not knowing if she's still in love with me."
…
Five hours later I, Edward Cullen, was driving to Forks; we would be there in about fifteen minutes. I adjusted my rear view mirror to see behind me. Alice was driving her yellow Porsche. We left right after packing and talking to the rest of the family. We all agreed that it was necessary for us to go. But they would need a few days, not to pack all the belongings and arrangements, that would be the easy part; but for Carlisle to complete his two weeks notice and get his job back at Forks. Which I'm sure is going to be really easy since they have been begging for him to come back even before he left.
I looked back up at the empty highway. A sign caught my attention. I smiled knowing exactly what was coming up. It read in carefully printed letters: Welcome to Forks! I smiled and pressed the accelerator.
A/N: Sorry I didn't write a chapter this weekend like I said I would. I am so sorry about that again, it's just that I had a science project that I completely forgot about and it was due Monday. So… you know the rest I had to do, and had no time whatsoever to write another chapter so here is my peace offering and enjoy as well! I will hopefully be able to post another one by tomorrow! O and the next chapter will be about Bella and Jacob and probably Edward, I'm not all that sure yet but hopefully that chapter will be soon. O and please review that's the only way I will keep going with this story.(I know threating people is bad it's just I love compliments and praise and that's what's really get's me going when writing a story!) So please do it!! And there will be more chapters where this came from.
