Chapter 4: One Year Later Bella's Point of View
Well I had done it, today was my one year anniversary married to Edward, and so far so good no sadistic vampires trying to kill me which was always a good sign. A lot had changed in this past year, Edward and I moved out of Esme and Carlisle's place and got a home of our own just a few miles away, I hadn't talked to Charlie in over a year either, and yes I was now a member of the vampire world I was strong and beautiful and even better a vegetarian, but the strangest thing that had happened in this past year dealt with Jacob. They are still looking for him after a little over a year of being missing, apparently when he got my wedding invitation he ran to who knows where. Quil, Embry, Sam, and the rest of the pack have been looking for him but so far can't find him. I called every so often to see how the search was progressing but nothing. Billy had died of a heart attack the pack says it was stress induced because of Jacob disappearing. The cover up story was that he had gone to a far off boarding school.
While I was reading "Wuthering Heights," again, Edward was talking to Carlisle on the phone about cars and man stuff that I couldn't understand if I tried. But out of nowhere Bella came up behind me and whispered,
"Bella what do you say we take a bit of a vacation? To Alaska perhaps?" The edge in his voice caught my attention, he hadn't sounded this nervous since the Victoria days.
"Why do you want to go, is something bad happening?" I questioned.
"No, no of course not I just thought you may want to go on a vacation just the two of us." It was times like these I knew exactly how Edward felt saying he wished he could read my mind, though I had gotten his same ability I could not read his mind, it got quite frustrating at times.
"Now Edward I know you don't expect me to buy that excuse, there is something going on that you're not telling me about, now tell me what it is."
"Bella, Jasper and Emmett were driving this morning when they caught a scent, Jacob's scent, Bella if the pack founds out I bit you we will have to go in to hiding."
" Oh I said well…" I was cut off by a sharp knock on the door.
