I woke up that morning in Edwards arms. That was the first reminder that Edward finally coming back last night wasn't a dream. They were hard and cold… and of course they belonged to a vampire. That was the second reminder that last night wasn't a dream; because I knew what the offer was, to be human, and I knew that Edward had turned it down. So he was a vampire.
I sighed contentedly as Edward gently began to stroke my cheek. I could feel his cool icy breathe in the back of my neck, making the hairs there rise.
"Hungry?" He murmured as he slowly began to sit me up strait with his very strong hands.
"Not really." I mumbled turning to face him. "Not yet… But…"
I gradually stood myself up, reaching my arms out as I yawned.
"But?" He asked.
"Why don't we go outside? It's nice and sunny out, I can hear the birds chirping, dew is on the grass, oh and of course it's sunny out, for once. I love my vitamin D."
Edward grinned at me as he got up to smooth the knots out of my hair, which took him no more than a few seconds. "Get dressed, and brush your teeth. I'll be waiting in the kitchen."
"Okay." I said. "We'll go for a walk along the street. We've never really done that. And of course, while we walk, you will tell me about your week long hold ups. Then maybe we could visit Charlie at the police station. I feel bad that for the past three weeks you were away I was so depressed again, and you know quiet. I ignored him. Now that you got back last night... well I wanna go and show Charlie that I'm alright now. He was sad that I was sad."
"Of course." Edward snorted. "I'm sure he'd love to see me. You go in their and let him see you happy again; I'll wait somewhere else near. Anyway, we dont want them to ask about my family... they know Carlisle moved out so they would wonder why I'm still here."
"Come on." I giggled. "Let me get ready. Then we'll head out."
(AlicePOV) I cautiously approached the police building. I'd gone from Port Angeles back to Forks last night; I had some people to talk to. making sure my huge dark sunglasses and un-stylish scarf were perfectly intact. The scarf was huge and ugly red/orange-ish, something that I would think easily covered at least half my face. To make my identity even less obvious, I'd used some of the money Carlisle had given me before the family broke up, (about 1,000,000) to dye and straiten my hair, which was now slightly lighter. I wore red juicy sweats and sweatshirt, and the juicy charm bracelet dangled around my wrist. I knew I was probably going overboard, but you could never be too careful when your undercover.
I mean, I was sure with huge sunglasses, completely different hair, and half my features covered Charlie would never recognize me. That in addition to my slightly tanner skin, and of course my features were no longer as beautiful as that of a vampires. And to be honest with myself… I wasn't really worried about Charlie recognizing me. There was no way in hell. But Bella and Edward just may be in there vistiting him, as they'd done some times last year in the beginning of the day on a weekend.
Edward was practically bound to recognize me, and Bella might as well. I also had a strange suspicion that she'd figured out it was me last night in Port Angeles.
Well… I took a deep breath as I approached the chiefs door, wishing I could still see the future. Here goes nothing, Alice...
~*~
Charlie- yes, I was so unlucky that it was Charlie who was inside. Not some other police guy, him. It was already bad enough I had to go here of all police stations! This was because being so new as a human and not used to my weaknesses, it would have felt strange and dangerous going to a different station that belonged to a different and much bigger town than Forks, where I'd been the last few years. So that was weird, also considering that Charlie was here. And you'd never guess who else.
Bella.
Bella was standing right there by Charlie, with an unrecognizable expression plastered across her face. Charlie looked rather excited... no, thrilled actually.
"I'm so happy your happy again, Bella." He was saying. "I didn't wanna repeat what happened to you last year... I thought it was beginning to happen. Now I'm just, uh, so glad to see you walk in here with a smile."
"Well, um, yeah. I came to let you know I was feeling a little happier... but um, it's Sunday morning, and sunny out, and so I kinda wanna go and soak up some nice vitamin D..." Bella said as she began to head for the door, which I closed as fast as my new human body would let me and slowly started to back away from Charlie's office or police station or whatever, the reason I'd came here was completely forgotten. All I knew was that I didn't want Bella to see me like this; a human. It was very embarrassing. I mean I knew she would find out and we would have to talk eventually, but not now.
As Bella exited she turned to me, standing there pressed against the hallway by Charlie's little room, with a look of wonder on her face.
"Are you looking for Charlie?" She asked as she approached me. "Or someone else who works here?"
"Um..." I began, trying to make my voice sound gruffer.
"Or," Bella asked, "Are you just Alice? Alice who's not looking for my dad?"
My mouth dropped open. For a few minutes I just stood there, before slowly taking off my sunglasses and scarf, stuffing them back into my Juicy tote.
"Hello, Alice." Bella said to me, laughing and seeming much more at ease than usual. Maybe it was because the look on my face humored her. Finally I asked, "How did you know it was me?"
"Well I saw you last night in Port Angeles, and once I saw you as a human once I would be able to recognize you again anywhere."
"Bella..." I sighed, shaking my head. That girl was quite a hand full. "What does Edward do with you?"
"Haha. Anyway, when you and Edward and everyone else was gone for so long I was all sad, but now that Edward came back last night I'm happy again, and I just wanted to show that to Charlie. Edward is waiting for me outside... and he still has some stuff to explain to me, like why he was held up from getting back to me a whole week. And..."
Bella looked down and paused, as if wondering if she should continue. "What's going on with you and Jasper." She whispered.
I stared at her for a long time. She looked truly upset about us; genuine fear for my relationship with Jasper was clear as day on her face.
"Bella, Jasper... he still loves me with all his existence. He's just in a difficult position at the moment..." I stopped speaking when my voice began to crack, and wistfully looked away.
"What do you mean?" Bella pryed, which was very un-like her.
"Listen, you'll find out soon enough." I said, changing the subject and trying to get back into a lighter mood. "Anyway, aren't you wondering what the heck I'm doing here?"
"Yes, in fact. Why are you here?"
"Well last night I walked back to Forks. Being human, with my new weaknesses and all, I felt uncomfortable being anywhere big. Plus I've been in Forks the past few years... I'm used to it. Port Angeles just wasn't working out. And as for why I'm here at the police... well, I er..." I stopped short, finding I didn't want to go on. "Edward will be more than happy to tell you." I told her. "Speaking of Edward, you said he's waiting. Let's go find him."
"Okay." Bella sighed as together we walked slowly down the long hallway and out of the police station.
I was nervous. Edward was about to enter our vision. Edward the vampire. Me, his 'sister' the human. All over again, this was going to be very awkward.
So that was the beginning of the preview version as well as the rest of the chapter. Posted after this will be all of chapter 8... and everything will be nice and neat and organized again.
