A/N: Well I am updating earlier than I anticipated thanks to my wonderful new beta, SparklingTopazEyes! She is the best! You should check out some of her stories.

This chapter is more of a filler chapter but necessary so you can understand Bella and Edward. So without further interruptions here is the next chapter!

Disclaimer: I do not own twilight!


Chapter Two

Edward POV:

After finding Jasper, we went hunting. Jasper decided to stay close to Forks because he didn't want to stay out all night; instead, he wanted to get back to Alice quickly.

I had just drained been my third deer of the night when Jasper started running away from the deer that he had just been about to kill. At that very moment, the most alluring, sweet human scent I had ever smelled in my one-hundred and seven years completely engulfed my senses, and before I realized it, I was following the scent.

Jasper was ahead of me running toward the same direction but I was faster then him and soon caught up to him.

He was about to hunt the girl, she was seated on an old fallen tree, oblivious to two very hungry vampires, both wanting her blood. My thirst only intensified while I heard Jasper's thoughts, twin thirsts much stronger than one; soon they crumbled my self-control.

I positioned myself at the top of a tree and Jasper sprang toward the girl. I could not let him get her, she was my prey and this feeling intensified while her blood sang a sweet melody to me. I sprang from the tree and flew above the girl crashing into Jasper, sending him far away from the girl. I held Jasper firmly on the ground.

I suddenly remembered Alice telling me not to breathe. She had seen this happening and she had more trust in my self-control than in Emmett's. I stopped breathing and regained self control again. I dragged Jasper home.

Bella POV:

That night I had trouble sleeping. After that frightening experience in the forest, I had found myself wide awake and recalled a similar memory.

The sky was clear of clouds, the starts and moon could be seeing clearly that night. I had not told Charlie I was going to take a walk in the forest. I had gotten tired after a while and had sat on a fallen tree log. I remember seeing bright red-eyes, I had screamed and the next second Charlie and Billy were next to me asking me if I was okay. I told them I was and Charlie took me home. That night he made me vow never to go into the forest again for there is danger lurking at every corner; Danger one never thought existed.

I felt like 10-year old Bella again. I grabbed all the pillows and put them all around me on the bed, creating a sort of wall, just like I did when I was small. I grabbed the picture I had of Charlie and put it on the pillow next to me and imagined he was there, taking care of me so no harm came my way.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The next day I woke to rain and thunder. I was home. I grabbed my bag of toiletries and went to the bathroom. I shed my clothes and walked into the shower. I turned on all the hot water and let it take away the stress, the pain, and the memories. When the water started getting cold, I quickly washed my hair with my favorite strawberry shampoo, washed my body and got out.

I walked back into the bedroom started to pick out the clothes for today. All my clothes fit into one suitcase. I wasn't big on shopping let alone actually cared for it. T-shirts, sweater, jeans and sneakers was what my wardrobe consisted of. After picking out my favorite black t-shirt that said "I'm a musician what's your excuse?" And some dark blue jeans with my black sneakers and blue parka, I walked out of the hotel room in search for a job.

Edward POV:

A mile before we got to the house, Alice came to my aid to take Jasper away from the house.

"Alice, what are you doing?"

She then let me see the vision she had had and the new one she had just gotten. They were both similar, but one ended with Jasper almost killing the girl and then me returning to finish her off after I got Jasper back to the house. The most recent one was of me returning Jasper to Alice and then running to my meadow. Only Alice knew I went there when I was in distress.

Edward, I don't know what happened out there tonight, but when I saw Jasper killing the girl I knew you would stop him, only to kill her yourself. I knew you would be stronger and my vision would change. I'm sorry if I caused you distress but Jasper is weaker than you in that sense. I had to do what I had to do. I'm sorry. Alice thought to me.

I curtly nodded to Alice and went exactly where she saw me go. My meadow.

A/N: Why do you think that Edward went to his meadow? Where will Bella find a job? Those are the only clues you get for the next chapter which is already a third of the way. Something big is going to happen in the next chapter! I will probably post on Friday if school projects don't get in the way which probably will since I have become the new director of a play for my high school. But don't worry I won't disappoint! I will make it extra long if I take more timeto post the next chapter!

Anyways please Review! Tell me if you loved it or hated it!
