Someone mentioned that the POV change in Chapter 2 was confusing. So here's the deal: POVs were supposed to change below the lines, but I just noticed that the I had lines don't show up. SORRY!! This chapter starts and Edward then changes to Bella below the line. Let me know if it's still unclear. This is what I want! It's hard to tell myself because I know how I wrote it!

I also explained what you brought up. The fact that Edward told Bella he hadn't love anyone before her. I do read reviews!

Also, this chapter is longer than the others. I hope that addresses everything that was brought up in the reviews!

Thank you! I'm impressed! Less than a day after I made my request, it was filled. I want 10 more reviews before you get Chapter 4! But here is Chapter 3. Read it, love it, review it!

Chapter 3

Reaction

This was bad. This was very, very bad. My fiancé from 1918 was sitting in my living room while the love of my life and my other fiancé came up the driveway. It had disaster written all over it.

Anna never was one to keep her mouth shut, even when it was better she did. With Bella's low confidence, even when she should know better, as soon as she found out about Anna she was going to panic. And I still hadn't forgotten the cliff jumping episode the last time she thought I didn't love her.

So it was worse than bad. My 1918 fiancé was in my living room while my new, human, potentially suicidal, fiancé came up the driveway.

If I thought running would have done any good, I would have been in Chile by twilight.

"Knock, knock," Bella called from outside. Usually I met her at the truck, she wasn't used to coming up to the door alone.

I threw a pleading look at Emmett and he went for the door.

"Sorry, Bella, no one's home right now," he called through the door.

"So, Emmett, if no ones home who am I talking to?" Bella asked.

"A recording?"

"Nice try. Let me in, Emmett."

Emmett shrugged at me with an I tried sort of look. I smack the palm of my hand against my forehead. Bella came in.

I stared around the room in confusion. The Cullens all looked like they were in shock. That was a little odd but truly terrifying part was that Edward looked frightened and, worse, apologetic.

Then I saw the strange vampire sitting there.

"Edward," I asked warily. He was at my side in an instant. His golden eyes radiating love as hard as they could.

"Edward, what's going on?" I asked.

"Edward, how does it know you? Does it know? What does it want?" the strange vampire asked.

"Edward," I said threateningly. I was confused. I wanted answers. And I did not like being called an "it" by this woman who didn't even belong here!

"Bella, love, let me explain!"

"'LOVE!'" the strange woman growled. "Edward! Who is this human? I am your fiancé!"

"Edward, what is she talking about? What's going on?" I asked desperately. I wanted Edward to answer, but she cut him off.

"I am Anna and Eddy's fiancé. What do you want with my Eddy?"

I was upset. I was very sure that I hated this Anna. I hated that she was so possessive. I hated that she called my love "my Edward" and "Eddy." He was not Eddy, he was Edward and he said he was mine!

"I'm Edward's fiancé!" I cried.

Edward jumped in quickly, "Bella, Anna was my fiancé in 1918."

"But you said you hadn't loved anyone but me!"

"You loved me! You loved me, Edward," Anna exclaimed.

I was mad and I was on the verge of tears. "Shut up! I was talking to my Edward!" I snapped.

"He is not yours!" Anna growled.

She lunged at me, teeth bared. I screamed.

Edward caught her just before she hit me. "No!" he snarled viciously. "You will not hurt her!"

He threw her across the room. She came up fast, shocked.

"Eddy, why did you do that to me?!" She yelped.

He ignored her and turned to me. "Bella, my father thought it would be wise. It was all his idea for me to marry Anna. I love you."

"What about me? I was just duty! Just something your father recommended! You lied to me? You never loved me?" Anna demanded.

"Of course not! Of course you're not just a duty!" Edward replied quickly.

"Then what was she, Edward? Or, a better question, what is she?" My voice was barely more than a whisper. Then I turned and ran out.

I jumped in the truck as fast as I could because I knew Edward would be following me.

"Bella, love, please! You know better than that!" Edward pleaded.

"I thought I did, Edward."
