a/n: I am so so so very sorry for not updating. I promised to most of the people that reviewed that I would update on boxing day, but I never did. And i am so sorry for that, but because of my mistake I am posting one extra long chapter for you today. And answering some questions that I had last time in my reviews. Catherine is Nathan's great-great granddaughter, and the rest of the family is still there, Bella just couldn't be Bella Cullen, and have Edward Cullen as well when they are posing as brothers and sisters. So therefore we have Bella Hale, ta da, hope that clears some stuff; it is also present day in Anchorage Alaska.

Facing the Truth

BellaPov

The line ended with Nathan, the line ended with Nathan. I kept repeating that over and over again in my head. I had watched the Masen family line since I had been changed, Nathan died with no children. This is just not possible. I watched the country fly by me, as me and my family sped home. I sat in the passenger seat of the car, my husband driving the Volvo; we had Jasper and Alice in the back seats. Right behind us in the Jeep Wrangler was Rosalie and Emmett.

We pulled in to our drive way, exposing our great house. Three levels, white. It was a Victorian, just like our house in Forks, Washington. I closed the door and was in the house in a fraction of second. My husband was right behind me; we raced up the great spiralling staircase into Carlisle's study.

"Come in."

I pushed open the doors, bustling into the office. "Bella?" Carlisle, asked concerned.

"Well I was in gym today, and well Edward tell him. This is not happening..." I rambled on; doubt filled through me, but in my cold dead unbeating heart there was a little speck of hope that told me that the ancestry line didn't die.

I watched as my darling wife rambled on about the Catherine girl in gym today. I studied the features of my adopted father as my wife told the story of the event's of today.

"Well I was in gym today, and well Edward tell him. This is not happening..." My head snapped up, realising what my love had said.

"Yes, right. Well I, Bella and Alice were walking over to the bleachers while the coach called this girl over, her name was Catherine Masen." I explained.

"Are you sure?"

"Positive."

"Carlisle, we need to know the truth." Bella begged and pleaded. The look in her golden caramel eyes was pleading. You could easily get lost in them. "Please."

"I think that that would be alright, but how do you intend on figuring that out?" Carlisle questioned. Please, don't break into the school, or her house. I just smiled my crooked smile. I looked over at Bella; she had a glint in her eyes, although I could not quite tell if it was good or evil. "Fine, just wait till dark." With that he waved us out of his office.

OoOoOo

"I found it over here." Alice exclaimed, vampire speed. We were currently in Catherine Masen's house, looking for something, anything that indicated that she was descended from Nathan, from us.

We stood looking at a huge oak wood bookcase; somehow it was familiar, just vaguely.

"It's my old bookcase, from my study, in Chicago." Edward remembered. "Bella, look at these books on here." I inched closer, moving steadily towards the bookcase. I looked at the books, they were our old books.

"If I am right, then, there should be an ancestry book on here. I wrote it, I had a feeling that one day we would need it." I said, examining each line, wanting to be careful so that I don't miss it. I saw one book, in old calligraphy on the side, it said Masen. I reached for it, being careful. Now I had it in my hands, fingers running over the old book. I flipped open the book, running my hand over each page.

"I remember writing this, it was like it was yesterday. " I flipped to the page, the last page I wrote on. "There," I explained, pointing to my writing. Next to my writing was more writing. But it wasn't mine. It was written by my son, Nathan. He signed the bottom, him and his wife's.

Nathan Masen Jennifer Masen

"He did marry." Edward wondered, I thought he didn't but there it was. They had the marriage certificate and the death certificate. Nathan died in 1954, and was married in 1938. His wife, Jennifer, died shortly before him. They had one child, born and died and had Catherine's mother. Then Catherine's parents had her, and that was that.

"So, she really is our descendant, then, isn't she?" I mumbled.

"Apparently."

OoOoOo

I glided into the school, my sister and my wife on either side of me. Everybody turned around to look at us. We where the inhuman, the beautiful, the eternally damned and they were all afraid. I smiled just faintly hearing some of the thoughts of this school.

He is so hot, wonder if I can get a date.

That guy does not deserve her, she will be all mine.

I heard that voice and i snarled ever so faintly just so that Bella and Alice could hear me. They just looked at me.

Edward, don't blow our cover. That was Alice, I could never hear my darling's thoughts, they were something that were foreign to me. I reached my locker with Alice to my left and Bella to my right. My locker was 302; my combination was 45-12-15. I reached in and grabbed my gym bag and shut my locker, and then I walked off to the gym with Bella and Alice.

OoOoOo

EdwardPov, continued

I walked into the gym, the floor squeaky in protest with every step, every move that I took. I saw that Catherine girl again, her middle name was Elizabeth. I found that out from last night's events, when we just walked into the house, looking for something. Of course we found it, we always find it. I watched as her friend, I think her name was Melissa nudged her again.

"Liz, look." Of course, Catherine's head snapped up to meet my gaze. She quickly looked away, from across the gym I could hear her heartbeat quicken. I chuckled ever so quietly to myself. Bella looked at me questiongly. I just nodded my head nothing, and quickly took my seat, next to Alice. I watched as the gym teacher to attendance, all the while blocking out the thoughts of the others around me.

"Alright, everyone. Let's do 5 laps, now would be good." The coach yelled at us. We immediately got up, and started to run. I, Bella and Alice took the lead, of course.

We were all done in a matter of 5 minutes or so, except for us. We were done in a matter of 3 and a half minutes, sorry Carlisle.

"Now, everyone pair up and let's get going with those stretches." I watched as Bella and Alice went together, and how everyone else paired up too. When they were all paired up, it was just me and Catherine.

a/n: Ok, so what is going to happen, I mean not so popular girl Catherine and vampire boy Edward, this will be interesting.

If you have any ideas, review or pm me! Thanks, and review, review, and review!
