After we got back to the house, Emmett and Jasper told Carlisle and Esme all about our game. Not forgetting a single detail. I just sat back and listened happily. My family had all scattered when we got home going to their rooms.

After a while Carlisle decided they should be getting home now, part of me was upset at that, part of me relieved, but at least I knew they weren't going anywhere. Alice assured me they were back in Forks to stay (well as long as they could without the locals getting suspicious, which would be a year or two) and she made me promise to go shopping with her soon, I tried to protest but seriously, Alice's sad doe eye's and pout combination is as powerful as Adam's power of persuasion, so I caved which caused her to jump up and down happily while giving me a bone crushing hug.

Carlisle, Esme, Emmett, Jasper and to my surprise even Rosalie hugged me goodbye. Edward stood looking at me for a few minutes as if he was having some sort of argument with himself, he took a step towards me opening his mouth to speak but was interrupted by Lucy "Edward, come on… I really want to get home and change" she said in a whiney voice I'm assuming she meant to be sweet; I had to suppress my smirk at her outfit… which thanks to me was completely ruined. Edward looked annoyed but sighed and turned to leave looking back at me once before getting into his silver Volvo and I swear I felt my heart shatter just a little bit more as he drove away with her looking smugly out of the passengers side window.

Surprising as it is, I really enjoyed spending time with the Cullen's again, sharing my life with them. I hadn't even realised how long they'd been here, they left at about 3am. I was sitting on the roof of the house looking at the sky. Another reason I loved my power to change the weather, I could clear the clouds away so I could see the stars.

I sat there thinking for a while before I heard 2 people coming to sit with me. The three of us were silent for a few minutes before Chris spoke "How're you holding up B?" I answered with my thoughts not trusting my voice "I'm fine" I lied…

Travis put his hand on my shoulder and said "Come on B, we know you better than that." I smiled then sighed before I began "I'm happy they're back. I've really missed them. All of them. I know its stupid, but I still love them and think of them as family even though they don't feel the same… I can't help it, and it's stupid because caring about people who don't care about me will only end up hurting me".

They each held one of my hands and I smiled sadly at them. I'm so lucky to have them. They really are my best friends, no one knows me better than they do. After a while Travis spoke again saying "I think you're wrong you know" I raised my eyebrow at him waiting for him to explain, he continued with a sigh "They do care about you Bella, that's obvious… they rushed over here when they thought you were in danger after Alice's vision and they've spent the whole day asking about your life why would they do that if they didn't love you."

"I hadn't thought about it like that…" I admitted not looking at them; I didn't want them to see the hope in my eye's that what he said might be true.

Chris spoke next hesitating before starting, as if he didn't know if I'd want to hear what he had to say "Bella… he still loves you too-" I opened my mouth to object but he put his finger to my mouth and continued "anyone can see Edward loves you, he could barely take his eyes off you the whole time they were here… and his eyes were filled with love, trust me…" Travis laughed then added "You didn't notice, you were too busy going after Lucy, but when we were playing earlier he got put out because he was too busy watching to make sure you were okay." He rolled his eyes at that. I wanted so much to believe what they were saying was true but I couldn't so instead I argued "He wasn't watching to make sure I was okay, he would have been making sure Lucy was okay… she is his girlfriend, and I may be jealous as hell but I'll deal with it because I love him and she makes him happy."

They both sighed in defeat and made their way back inside, I know they don't agree with me but they know they're not going to convince me what they're saying is true.

I started to think what could happen if it was true. What if he did love me… but I pushed those thoughts out of my head quickly before they could hurt me.

I sat on the roof thinking until the sun started to come up, I decided to talk to Edward later today. I want him in my life. Even if it's only as a friend, I hope he will want me as a friend even though I know he doesn't want anything more than that…

(Edwards POV)

As we were leaving to go home I stood watching Bella, part of me wanted to run to her and never let her go again, but another part of me was scared. Would she forgive me for leaving? For lying to her?

I decided to ignore my fear and try and explain to her, if she'd let me. I started towards her about to speak but Lucy interrupted me.

"Edward come on… I really want to get home and change" her voice was like nails on a chalkboard, I saw Bella's eye's flash to Lucy's clothes and it was obvious she was fighting a smile. I have to admit it was funny she was covered in mud and her shirt was torn, Bella was quite impressive earlier. I was shocked when I saw her running toward Lucy while being chased by Emmett, Zach and Caden. I was so worried about her getting hurt I didn't even notice the bomb that was heading straight for me, I felt stupid for worrying so much because she could take care of herself pretty well. Seeing her teasing Emmett like that was the funniest thing I've ever seen, he'll never be allowed to forget that.

I chickened out and turned to leave annoyed at myself for not having the guts to just tell her I love her. I will tell her. I have to.

I need her, the past three years without her have been hell, I'll do whatever I have to, to prove to her how much she means to me. I just don't know what to say yet.

When I got to the car I turned back to get one last look at my beautiful Bella before driving home. Something flickered in her eyes as she watched me leave. Sadness. Pain. My heart broke into a thousand pieces at the look in her eyes. I had caused that, I hate myself for ever hurting her.

I drove home and stormed up to my room ignoring my family. I played the CD I'd made for Bella, putting her lullaby on repeat as I sat there and thought of how to win her back…

(Alice POV)

I am so happy right now. I have my best friend back, my sister and now Edward will be happy again.

I can't believe Bella has a daughter, and she told her about us. I have a niece.

Jaspers arms wrapped around my waist and whispered in my ear "Alice, could you please try and contain your excitement. I feel like I'm going to spontaneously combust with your happiness"… I giggled and turned to beam at my husband.

"We're all going hunting… well, except Edward he's moping in his room are you coming with us?" I nodded my head, hopped up to peck him on the cheek and ran off to my closet saying over my shoulder "Just let me change first" he laughed and walked off.

Once I was changed I ran outside and hopped into Emmett's jeep with Rose, Jazz, Emmett and… Lucy.

Eugh I hate that we're stuck with her, sometimes I wish Carlisle and Esme weren't so nice. She is always all over Edward. She doesn't seem to get it; she doesn't stand a chance with him. He loves Bella and no one else. I hope she leaves soon…

A wave of calm hit me and I looked to my husband, he was raising his eyebrows obviously wondering what I was angry about. I quickly nodded my head in Lucy's direction and he smiled understanding.

I sighed resting my head on his shoulder as Emmett drove after Carlisle's Mercedes.

I hope Bella and Edward get back together soon so we can all be a proper family. I really like her brothers and sisters, they're so much fun. I hope they like us too.

(Edwards POV)

I heard the rest of the family leave. They were going hunting; I really wasn't in the mood to go with them.

I've been sitting here for hours now. I need to see Bella.

I got up turning off her lullaby; the sun was just coming up. I hope she'll listen.

I went downstairs at human speed, going over in my head what I would say to her. Even though that was probably pointless, I'll forget it all as soon as I see her. I lose the ability to talk when I look at her, was this what she meant when she was human and said I used to dazzle her? I smiled at the thought, grabbing my car keys before pulling the door open.

I took a few steps outside before something slammed into the back of my head, sending me flying towards the ground. I swear if it were possibly, I'd be unconscious.

Something black covered my eyes and I felt myself being dragged across the ground and thrown into the back of what I think was a van and strong hands held me down before the van sped off. I tried to speak and struggle out of the grasp of the vampires holding me down but I was hit over the head again and kicked in the stomach.

The only thought in my head now was Bella… I can't lose her again.

(Alice POV)

We'd been driving for about an hour when I felt myself being pulled into a vision. I gripped Jaspers arm as the images flashed in front of my eyes…

Edward was walking to his car when a vampire hit him over the head, he fell to the ground. Another vampire came and put a black hood over his head while two others started dragging him into the back of a van, he struggled as the van drove away from our house but they hit him again…

I was taking deep unnecessary breaths about to tell Jasper what I had seen when I was pulled into a different vision…

Edward was in a room, it seemed like a basement. I couldn't see them very well but I knew there were at least 5 vampires in the shadows guarding him. He was chained down and looked badly hurt… the door to the basement opened and a woman walked down the steps and stood in front of Edward grinning, she ran a finger down his cheek which he shuddered away from then she spoke "It doesn't have to be this way Edward, you'll come round eventually… I always get what I want" Edward looked up at her and snarled "We will never be together, I made that perfectly clear last time we met" she kept smiling but it seemed forced as she said "have it your way Edward" she snapped her fingers and two of the vampires came out of the shadows and stood at her sides, she said to them never taking her eyes from Edward "he needs a little more… persuasion" and she walked back up the stairs, away from Edwards roars of anger and pain…

I snapped out of the vision and Jasper calmed me, the car had stopped and Carlisle and Esme were standing next to my door looking at me worried. I tried to find my voice but all I managed to stutter out was "Edward…she has Edward!" they all gasped and Carlisle asked calmly although I could tell he wasn't "Alice, who has Edward."

I growled as I said her name "Amber!"

Emmett and Jasper roared at her name, Rosalie looked shocked and Esme looked like if she could she'd be crying. Lucy just asked "Who is Amber?" I wanted to hit her but Carlisle put a hand on my shoulder to stop me and I turned to face him and explained the vision to him.

When I had explained what I had seen I said "We have to go to Bella." Lucy snorted at that and spat "What does this have to do with her its not like she could help!" this time I did hit her. I'm normally not a violent person but I'm not going to sit and let her speak about Bella like that. I pulled back my fist and slammed it into her jaw knocking her backwards through the window of the jeep. Then I shouted at her "This has everything to do with Bella! She is more a part of this family than you will EVER be!" then I turned to my family who all looked shocked and said "We need to go to Bella, there are too many for us to fight, and she is one of the Volturi now… she can help" they all nodded and we got back into the cars and sped off back towards Forks.
