Bella's POV

"So tell me again." I asked Alice. She took in a deap breath.

"Tanya, is coming to visit and she doesn't even know that you exist, so she still thinks that Edward is still single. If she knows about you, well, let's just say that there might be a funeral soon." Alice looked at me with her wide and honest golden eyes.

"So, I have to meet a vampire who had for years been trying to get Edward to love her?" I asked again for the millionth time. Alice nodded her hair didn't move one bit, too much hair spray to do that. "Alright. When is she going to get here?" I asked.

"Tomarrow moring around eleven in the morning. Is that OK?" She asked. I knew then that she wanted me to look good for my unwecome guest. I nodded and she ran out of the room. I sighed and walked down stairs to find Edward sitting at his piano playing my lulaby. I planted a smile on my face and walked over to the love of my life. He didn't stop playing knowing that I wanted him to continue, no matter what happens. I placed my hands on his shoulders and closed my eyes, imagining him and I in our medow. Before my little fantisy was over the music stopped. I opened my eyes to find Edward looking blankly at the keys.

"Edward?" I asked. "What is it?" I was scared. Was a vampire coming or something worse than that? The Volturi? Oh, God. Did my bad luck ever end?

"Tanya is coming." He stated. I knew that, we all did.

"Yeah, so?" I asked.

"She won't be the happiest person to find out that I am engaged to be married, and not only that Bella but to marry a human!" He groaned.

My shoulders slumped. He didn't want anyone to know that he loved a human, this way he can change me to make it seem like he fell inlove with a vampire. Edward felt the wave of sadness that I gave off.

"Bella, it's just that, she always thought that whoever I fell in love with, that she'll kill tham this way she can be there. You know that I don't want this to haooen to you. Please don't cry." He begged. He wiped away a tear, I didn't even relize that I had been crying. He was facing me and pullingm me down this way he can hold me.

"You don't want them to know." I sobbed.

"Of course I do, you silly girl. I know that Kate and the others will love you, just as Carlisle and Esme do. Tanya is the only thing that I am worried about. You are the most importent thing to me and I can't stand the thought that a vampire that we know and love will want to hurt you, let alone kill you." He soothed. My head was placed on his upper arm and his hand was stroking my hair lightly. "I don't want to loose you to Tanya, or anyone for that matter. Shhh... calm down, love." He crooned.

I sniffled and sobbed on Edward's shoulder for another fifteen minutes and than I lifted my head up to look at him. His topaz eyes were sadened and worried, all for me.

"Do I get to pick out my out fit instead of Alice?" I asked hopeful. Edward laughed, his shoulders shaking.

"Of course." He kissed my forhead and then I walked up stairs to get ready for bed this way I can meet Tanya sooner, and get her to be gone sooner.

I sat on the couch in the living room waiting for Edward to bring me my lunch. He insisted on making my luch today, the aromas from the kitchen made my mouth water.

"It smells good!" I called into the kitchen, hoping that this will get him to let me walk in there.

"Thank you. And no you may not come in!" He scolded. Shoot, Alice must have seen my plan, or I am just that predictable. I sighed and leaned back against the couch, looking mindlessly at the over-sized TV that the Cullens' owned. Some pointless cartoon was on and it looked like it could be funny if I knew what it was about.

Edward walked in with a tray in his white hands, a white bowl with some grilled cheese sandwitches on a white plate. In a small clear vase was a single yellow rose with no water. He was so sweet. Edward walked over to me and set the tray down on the coffee table, he took a seat next to me and looked at me with an encouraging expresion. I leaned forward and took the spoon to sample the tomato soup that he had made. Small whips of steam was coming off the liquid, I blew twie over it and stuck the spoon in my mouth. It was wonderfull, basil, tyme, and loads of other herbs were in the soup and the tomato balanced them all out. I groaned.

"WHat is it?" Edward asked. "Did I put too much basil in there?" He reached for the spoon and bowl, but I slapped his hand away. I swallowed the soup.

"If you touch the bowl of this spoon, I swear to God, I will no be happy." I threatened. There was no way on Earth that Edward was going to take this bowl away from me and not let me eat it. Edward smiled and laughed. I continued to eat the lunch that he made for me. Every thing was perfect, the soup with the herbs and the sandwitches with the soup.

I was on my last few swallows of soup when there was a knock at the door. Carlisle came down from his study and answered the door.

"Tanya!" He greeted the Denali vampires.

A beautiful woman with strawberry blond curls walked into the house and gave Carlisle a warm hug (metophoracy speaking). She had white skin, just like the Cullens' and she was, as I feared, utterly beautiful. After Tanya was done hugging Carlisle she walked over to Edward, completely ignoring me, as if I wasn't his bride-to-be.

"Edward, as always it's a pleasure to see you." She opens her arms for a hug as well. I looked over to Edward, his face showed warm welcome, but nothing beyond that.

"Tanya, I have to say that it is rude to ignore another person who is in the room." Edward stated.

Tanya's happy, smug, and joyess face fell. She folded her arms across her chest and looked at Edward in a stuborn way, much more stuborn than me.

"I have no idea what your talking about." She sneered in the rudest way you can imagine.

"Tanya, I would like you to meet Bella," He wrapped his arm around my waist, "she's my bride-to-be." He seemed proud to say this out loud.

Tanya's golden eyes shifted to me. She showed hatered in her eyes and complete sadness. She seemed to hate me already. Her lips were in a thin line and I think that I saw the venom in her teeth begin to leak out. She didn't say anything, just continued to glare at me. She reminded me of Rosalie that one day at lunch. I felt a shiver go down my spine, I made up my mind that I was to be the one to talk. I held out my pale hand.

"It's nice to meet you, Tanya." I planted a fake smile on my face to show Edward that I was willing to give this a shot. Sh glared at my hand, she didn't take it. "Edward has tols me so uch about you." I tried again and failed to do so.

"No, your wrong. It's not nice to meet you," she hissed, "in fact, it's a complete dishonor to meet you. You worthless human." She growled. I let my hand fall to my side and my eyes stared blankly at her. The tears began to sting my eyes, all ready. I didn't want to show her that my feelings can be hurt that easy.

"Tanya." Edward growled. He looked at me and one tear spilled over my eye lid. Not long now before they all do, he had to get me out of here. "Come on Bella. Alice needs to talk to you." He pulled me up stairs, and into Alice's room.

Alice and Esme were on the floor looking at magizenes, house, wedding, fashion, ect. Alice's hair was in its usual spiky style but she had a head band holding back her small amount of bangs. She looked up at me and instantly she knew what had happened. She got up off the floor and helped Edward lead me to her bed. Esme walked out of the room and decended the stairs.

Edward whispered something to her, too low for my ears and walked out of the room. Alice hugged me tight and began to whisper soothing words, they didn't help me at all.

Tanya hated me and she never even got the chance to know me, she hated me because Edward loves me and not her. She was beautiful and gracefull, basically ever thing that I'm not. Why would he love me when he can have a vampire to love. I was dangerous and ordinairy and Tanya was exacly the oposite. He could have her and she could love him like two people in love should. I should just leave this house and leave Edward and Tanya to love each other like they should.

"Hey," ALice shook my shoulders, "don't think that. Edward never loved her. She can't learn how to take no as an answer. Edward is looking forward to loving you, don't worry Bella." Alice gave my shoulders a squeez and looked into my brown eyes.

Even though the word that Alice had said were simple they seemed to have an effect. I never again gave a thought to leaving Edward to be with Tanya, she didn't deserve him.

"Alice?" I asked.

"Hmm?" She was brushing my hair.

"Has Edward and Tanya, you know..." I trailed off, unable to speak the words. Alice sighed.

"I wish that you didn't ask me that." She sighed. I looked at her in a questioning way. Alice met my gaze through the miror. "They almost did. It was back in the 50's, Edward had agreed to it because he thought that if he did it he would fall in love with her. We were putting presure on him, he thought that this was the only way out. So, I talked to Tanya hoping to talk her out of it. I told her that she wasn't the girl, she said other wise. I thought about it the entire time, and he saw it my way. Tanya never gave up that she wasn't that girl that he would fall in love with, she thought that since she couldn't get his attention that no girl could. So she continued to try, she just doesn't see that we're vampires and we never chnage. If she was never once beautiful to him then she never would be. She needs to give up now." She groaned. "I am so sick of watching her in the future and the present hitting on my brother. " She groaned again and tilted her head back to show just how anoyed she was.

"Well, thnks for telling me. What happend? You said almost." I wanted to know.

"Well, that night Edward told her that he couldn't; that he wanted to tell the girl that he will fall in love with that he's never had sex and this way he won't have to lie to her. He also promised Tanya that if he thinks that he'll never find this girl, AKA you," she added, "that he'll do it. Tanya said that she's going to hold him to that promise and then she never gave up after that. If you ask me, even when your one of us and married to Edward that she still will have hope that the two of you will get into this huge fight then get a divorce." She rolled her eyes inot the mirror. "but, we all know that will never happen. Even if you two live forever, Rose and Emmett get into their fights, but look they're still married and love each other. Carlsile and Esme hardly ever fight and when they do, they each apologize and they make up. It never lasts for more than about an hour." She shrugged. "Jasper and I have had our disagreements, but since he can't stand to fight against me then he'll give in and tell me that I'm right." She smiled.

With the truth out I felt so much better, and I made a mental note.

Never let Edward go alone to Denali and never let the two of them be alone.

YAY! This is the last chapter(possibly, no promises. ) I have one more idea, but I'll save that one for The Summer. I hope that you liked it! REVIEW!!
