Chapter 3 EPOV
As I drove up to the nearly invisible turn off to my home I glanced at Bella. She had been quiet since I told her Tanya had died. I supposed she was letting me have space that I didn't need. I wasn't upset over Tanya's death I was just angry. No one recognized the scent of the vampire who had done that to her.
Carlisle had also told me to hurry up and get back with Bella. I presumed Alice was just desperate to do more wedding planning. I glanced at Bella again she was looking out the window so I couldn't see her face but I had a feeling she was worrying about me and my family.
I stopped in front of the house. "Bella" I said and she turned her head. I was about to continue when I realized that that familiar scent was hanging in the air. Again.
"What Edward?" she questioned.
"I can smell it again," I whispered. I had no idea why I was whispering. Perhaps it was instinct. Perhaps I was being paranoid. I wasn't sure which was truer. I took a deep breath to try and untangle the smell and place a scent to a face. It was old smelling like Carlisle or Esme, which was young in vampire terms. I had a feeling "she" was younger than me possibly younger than Rosalie but definitely older than Emmett. "She" had a weird tang on her scent that sent chills through me but I didn't know why.
I shook it off. If there were any cause for alarm then someone would have told me. Surely not even Rose wanted to put Bella in any immediate danger. Or the rest of the family at that thought. I paused to listen to everyone's thoughts. I heard Emmett's thoughts quite easily Damn! This chick is hot. Not as hot as Rose but still! Rosalie's thoughts however came screaming from inside Oh she's got a nerve! I can't believe that bitch is showing her face here after what she did! I could also here various thoughts from Carlisle and Esme like Oh thank goodness she's okay! I'm so glad she came back!
I was getting curious now. I opened the door hopped out and was opening Bella's door in a split second. I helped her out and we walked into the house. Oddly Alice didn't rush out of the house to see Bella.
I opened the front door and Bella and I went into the living room to find Esme, Carlisle, Rosalie & Emmett sitting in various chairs in the room. Carlisle stood and cleared is throat
"Um someone arrived early this morning" he muttered keeping his thoughts blank and his face looking at his feet "we thought you ought to know"
"Well who is it?" I demanded. Carlisle raised an eyebrow, I sighed "Sorry Carlisle" And then there was a voice behind me. One that I knew had once sent tingles down my back. One that had once been one of the few things that made me smile. But that was long ago and those times had been thrown out the window and pushed from my mind.
"Hey Eddie-kins"
