Alice walked into her room. Her mood hadn't changed. She was still as upset as ever over the news. She closed her eyes. She wanted to find herself waking up to a horrible nightmare. None of this was true. It couldn't be. She opened her eyes again and there she was, in her room. Nothing changed. Bags opened on the bed. She walked to the cupboards slowly. Picking out various clothes to bring. She didn't care which ones she picked. She just took a handful and threw them into the wide open bag. Then she looked up on top of the drawer. She saw that picture she had kept from the summer. The one with Edward and Bella sitting together, madly in love. Emmett and Rosalie posing for the picture. Emmett being his usual poser self. Trying to show off his muscle. And Carlisle and Esme watching over them all like a lion watching over her cub. Then there was Jasper and Alice, this she focused on the most. They stood together, Alice grinning as happily as she could be. Jasper smiling for having his dear wife beside him. They were all happy. She wanted that back. She wished it was summer all over again.
Carlisle knocked on Alice's door. "Can i come in?" he asked with a smile on his face. It was a comforting one to her. He was always friendly. "Sure. Its your house isn't it?" Alice said, with a little grin and a snicker. Carlisle sat on the bed, next to the bags. He looked in. "Not packing much, are you?" He said. "Not really, I wanted to be least reminded of this place as possible. That way, it won't hurt as much when we leave." She sighed. She folded up her t-shirt. It was her favourite t-shirt. It had "Bite me" wrote in blood red letters all across the front. She then threw it into the bag. "Look, i know your upset about the way things are but you never know how the next place might be like. It could be even better than here." Carlisle said, hoping what he just said was actually true. "I know, but i just don't want to leave all this behind. We have friends here, We can't just leave them all behind." She commented on, turned towards Carlisle. Carlisle stood up. Walked towards her. He hugged her, holding her head in his hand. "I know, but i'm afraid we have to. Edward maybe right about Bella, but i have my own reasons too. Its important." He said. Alice pushed him away. "And What would those reasons be, huh?!" She shouted. She was getting angry to think that even Carlisle wanted to move.
Carlisle sat down on the bed again. Alice watched him. She was still angry. He layed his head into his hands and sighed. "You know why. People are getting suspicious. They're asking how can I look 22 when i'm 32. I can't be looking 32 at 60 or even older, now can i?" He finally said. It was true. They had been getting suspicious. Alice's anger seemed to go away. He knew Carlisle was right after that. They had to move. "Fine." She finally said after a breif silence. "Just let me pack and we'll move." She finished. "Thank you Alice." Carlisle smiled. He Hugged her then left the room. Alice picked up the picture that was above the drawer. She smashed it on the ground. She wanted to forget everything about Forks. She was about to close up her bag. She looked to the floor. She swiped away the glass that was on the ground. Picked up the picture that was on the ground. She stared at it, sighed and smiled. She placed it in her bag and closed it up. "Just a lil memory wouldn't hurt." She thought to herself.

A week had gone by. They were all trying to forget about Forks. Well except for Edward and Alice. Alice would never take down her picture of the group in the summertime. She kept it hidden in her cupboard beside her bed. Every night she would open that drawer every night, just to think of better times. Jasper had become quiet again. Alice and Jasper weren't talking that much. Alice said she saw something happening in the future but she would never say what she saw. She kept it to herself. Jasper knew she wasn't happy, but anytime he tried to get close to her, she'd walk away. Edward would drift in and out between reality and his memorys with Bella. He would leave the house a lot too. No one was sure where he went. They were afraid to know too. Carlisle used his medical skills in finding another place to work, things had been going great for the rest of them.
They started in South Africa, but there was a problem, they had faced. They were living in a place that was majority Wolf pack, They were afraid to show their true forms and if they had stayed there any longer, they knew they would have been killed. They finally decided to stay in Venice, stay as near as they could to Voltira as possible. Alice seemed to cheer up when she found out they were travelling to Venice. "Oh Venice! So Romantic!" She screamed with excitment. "Amung the waters. Lit up at night, Gondolas, Piazza San Marco. Oh Having a candlelit dinner, me and you, Ja-...Family. Wouldn't it be so Romantic?" She said, like a little child, excited on christmas day. Carlisle smiled. He was happy to see the family was becoming happy again. "Yeah, i could do a couple of rounds playing water polo in the ocean. Showing the ladies what they can't have." Emmett said with a cocky grin. Rosalie laughed "Emmett, you idiot, you can't play in the water, you'll get hit by a boat." "So? I can take it on." Emmett laughed. "Sure you could Dumbo." Rosalie said and kissed him on the cheek. Jasper walked over to Alice with a shy smile. "Maybe we can ride a gondala together, hey ally? Under the stars, and kiss." He said softly. He was getting happy. "Heh, yeah" Alice grinned and chuckled awkwardly. "Excuse me, i don't feel well. I'm gonna go to bed for an early night." She continued, she rushed out of the room. Jasper's mouth was opened, He turned to the Cullens. "shes been getting sick a lot lately, eh?" he gave an uncomfortable laugh. "Hmm, yes, haha." Carlisle said. "Well, we'll make sure everything goes great in Venice, and your gonna love the new house" Esme said as happy as she could be.
When they arrived at their new home in Venice, they were all Awe struck. Even Edward who had been quiet the entire trip. He Didn't say much lately, and nobody ever had anything to say to him. Carlisle tried to talk to him somtimes but even he couldn't reach out to Edward at this time. The new house was glorious, It looked like an old ancient rome styled bricks, light red and light orange bricks, but everything else was modern, The kitchen, the bedrooms, the bathrooms, even a big black grand piano in the corner. "Eh, Carlisle, where can i put my new cars? Got an awesome Biodiesel Trident Iceni. Can go 200 m.p.h. Its a Beauty, set me back $200,000" Emmett said with pride of his new car. "Sorry Emmett but your sort of unable to drive it, Venice is covered by water. Don't worry though, i'm sure you can get into boats in no time." Esme said with laughter. Emmett was dissapointed. Alice ran up the stairs "I get to pick my bedroom." She said as excited as ever. "Wheres the T.V.?" Jasper asked Carlisle. "heh, heres the beauty of it." Carlisle chuckled. he walked over to a wall where there was a slit in the middle of it, and a little handle, there he slid the door to the left and right and he showed in glory a 50" HD T.V. The group looked amazed at the size of it. Emmett fell down in shock, mouth wide open. "What you think Edward?" Carlisle asked with a big grin on his face. "Meh" Edward said and walked up the stairs to go pick his room out. "Hm, well, i'm sure we'll have a great life here." Carlisle said, with hope in his eyes, and this time, he felt it would be true.
