BPOV:
Edward and I met back up at the castle of the Volturi. We both knew about the treachery of James and Victoria and their plans for us. Neither of us were eager to part take in their plot but we didn't support the Vultruim, either. Edward and I both longed to leave the politics of vampires and live on our own. We had discussed this one day after a fight and the only reason we stayed was for our friends.
"We have to tell the others." was the first thing I whispered to Edward.
He shook his head, "Will they believe us? I know they don't like James and Victoria, but this is something completely different altogether. Maybe we should tell the Volturi brothers."
They were the last people I was willing to tell, "Perhaps Carlisle and Esme, then? They might know what to do. You are always going to Carlisle for advice."
Edward smiled but it didn't reach his eyes, "Sure. Let's tell Carlisle and Esme. But what if James and Victoria overhear us? I don't think they would be very pleased to know that we are aware of their plans. You should have heard what James was thinking during the conversation."
I grimaced, "I think I can guess. I should ask Carlisle and Esme to go hunting with us, then. And we can tell them what is happening while we are out. I'll go ask them now. Wait here for me, please?"
Edward agreed and I went off to find the couple. They were still in Carlisle's room and didn't look at all surprised to see me. I guessed that they thought I wanted to talk to them about my relationship problems. Both of their faces revealed curiosity when I asked them to go hunting with Edward and I at that minute. Still, they decided to follow me out to where Edward was waiting. Then the four of us started running in the opposite direction I had seen James and Victoria in. We went further then necassary to keep out of hearing range as an extra precaution. Esme and Carlisle seemed to realize I had no intention to hunt because they stared at Edward and I for a brief second, waiting for an explanation.
Edward started, "Bella and I were hunting when we heard someone come up near us. It was Victoria and James, who were in an argument. They were discussing their plans to overthrow the Volturi using Bella, myself, and our friends." he went on to explain everything we had heard and what he had picked up on using his powers.
Esme looked astonished but Carlisle nodded thoughtfully, "I thought something was off about those two," he murmured, "But not quite to this extent. I wonder what their complete plans are?"
Esme continued for him, "Obviously nothing good. But I wonder what the coincidence is with the newborn problem appearing right before it is discovered that they have plans to destory the Volturi. Is it a coincidence? Or something else?"
Edward thought about that, "They didn't mention making the newborns but I wouldn't put it past them. But I realize we don't know everything they have planned so how do we respond to the threat? Tell the Volturi? Comfront them? Get out before we are involved?" he put an arm around my waist.
I scowled, "Get out? We have to help the problem. As terrible as the Volturi are now, I can only imagine James would be worse. Edward, we can't run away."
Carlisle disagreed, "No. You can't defeat them yet. There is still much to learn about their plans. Just watch carefully and be ready to respond to whatever happens."
We all argued over the problem for several more minutes before deciding to do as Carlisle suggested. I couldn't imagine just waiting for something awful to happen but I didn't have a choice. Until the oppertunity presented itself, the four of us would keep quiet and not do anything. It was lucky that Edward and I were less impulsive then our friends or we would be able to manage.
As it went, there was nothing more to be said. Edward and I said goodbye and made our way to where we lways met for training. We struggled to keep our thoughts concealed from James, Victoria, Laurent, and our friends. They all wanted to know what was wrong but eventually summed it up to another fight. Neither Edward nor I corrected that assumption.
After practice, Alice dragged Rosalie and I to try on bridesmaid dresses at a designer's studio. Alice had ordered the designer to make clothes especially for us. She finally tried on her vision perfect wedding dress. It was floor length, with a corset and tight strings across her back as the top part that flowed into endless folds of fabric that had to weigh more then Alice did. The corset top had delicate pink lace and tiny sequins for decoration and was completely strapless. The skirt part had several different layers seperated by a series of real pink roses. The dress was made of real silk, equisite lace, and rare roses imported from another continent. It was outrageously expensive and definitely worth it.
Alice looked like a petite princess in her gorgeous dress and little tiara studded with jewels. The designer, Rosalie, and I gasped when Alice stepped out of the dressing room. Even with vampire beauty I had never seen anyone look so breathtaking. Jasper would not be able to take his eyes off his beautiful bride on their wedding day. That much was obvious.
"What do you think?" Alice asked us nervously, watching our reactions.
Rosalie grinned, "Perfect. You look great, Alice. Jasper is going to love it."
They turned for my response, "You look like a princess. You were made for that dress, Alice."
She giggled, "Technically, I was made to destory newborns," she said this at a speed the designer couldn't understand, "But I'll take the dress over the newborns anyday. You guys really like it?"
"Yes!" Rosalie and I shrieked.
So Alice paid the extraordinary sum for her wedding dress, changed back into her clothes, and took the now-covered gown from the designer. He looked extremely sad to see it go.
"You want to model it on the runway?" he asked in desperation, "It is my most remarkable design yet. 'Would be a shame to not display the gown to the public."
But Alice said no, and we headed back to the castle. The boys arrived back at the same time we did; they had just gone for their own fittings. Both Alice and Jasper were extremely excited for the wedding that was just days away. And frankly, the rest of us were excited, too. Only Edward and I had more then just the wedding to think of in upcoming days.
R&R & answer my poll, please.
