Hey hey! I'm back with a new chapter! For two stories... It's amazing, I swear.

So, here's the deal of why it's been awhile. I swore I was going to have it up earlier in the week, but things happened. I wrote the chapter, sent it to my beta who thought it was somewhat non-realistic. I then rewrote the ending and sent it back to her. So, sorry about the wait, but a lot of things, including this, has been happening.

Enjoy! This is Chapter 6, which means Edward's point of view!!! YAY!!!

As I walked into the house, I noticed that everyone welcomed me with open arms. It felt good, but at the same time, it felt like something was missing. It seemed as if something had been going on with my family had caused them pain. I knew that it would not be about me, for I was here in front of them.

When I walked in, I realized that my family was hiding their thoughts from me. Carlisle was looking into reading a new book, which meant that I would never hear the end of this book until he finished it; Carlisle liked to be thorough and process everything.

Alice was missing. I did not know where she was, but I figured she would show up later. I wanted to talk to her about the future of Bella and I.

Jasper decided to think about how he was excited to see me. He couldn't help himself and started sending waves of love toward my family. I guess that is what he was feeling, but it wasn't what I was hearing.

Esme was thinking about how she felt like she had lost another son when I was gone. I knew she didn't like the idea of me gone, but I didn't know how much she would like the idea of seeing a remorseful Edward. When she started thinking about her "death," I decided that I had had enough and got out of her thoughts. I would talk to her later about this.

Rosalie was thinking about a new vehicle that she had bought. She wanted to make it go faster. Her love for fast cars was almost as much as mine. She was thinking about rebuilding the engine but was trying to figure out how she could change the existing one.

Emmett was thinking about his prize hunts. He was so excited about his new prey that he wanted to hang it on his wall. Thankfully, Esme would not let him for Rose's sake. I was scared for what he planned to do with it now.

I started to wonder what they were hiding from me. I became suspicious.

Carlisle announced that we would have a family meeting to celebrate my return. He thought that I would be able to tell them what happened and why I ran without proper notice. Of course, Alice must have known that. She must have been more trustful than I thought by not telling them. I wished I could thank her, but I could not find her anywhere. I would tell her later.

When it was time for the family meeting, Carlisle decided to start. He squeezed Esme's hand for support and then began, looking at me.

"It has been awhile since we have had one of these family meetings, but I felt as if one was needed. We have a lot to talk about. First, though, I would like for Edward to tell us where he has been and what made him decide to come back," he said, of course giving me everyone's attention. It didn't bother me, but I was scared of how my family would take my decision. Jasper, noticing my emotions, decided to help me out and send a wave of calm around the room. I nodded thanks to him and then began.

"I think all of you remember what happened at the dance studio to Bella. I decided that I would take some time off to gather my thoughts because I thought Bella had died. I went to Denali, where Tanya and her family welcomed me with open arms. Of course, after awhile, I became tired of living without my life, so I decided to come back to see the consequences of my actions. I figured that if something had happened, I would immediately finish myself off." I heard Esme gasp, but continued thanks to Jasper's calm emotions continuously rolling toward me. "If everything is okay, and that does include Bella being alive, I will stay." I finished, with an unnecessary exhale of breath.

"Don't kill yourself, Edward. She is just a pest in your life. I don't see why you like her," Rosalie said. Of course, leave it to her to ruin the day even more. When would she see Bella the way that I see her?

I let out an involuntary growl, protecting the invisible Bella inside of me. I knew she would never die in my mind, but I wanted to have new memories of her, us. Emmett put his hand on Rosalie and soothed her before she could attack me.

Esme, Jasper, and Carlisle were beyond thoughts. They seemed uncertain of what to say. Alice had a spark of hope in her mind, but I didn't let that get to me. Emmett just seemed concerned for me.

No one knew what to say for awhile; after all, no one really knew what to do in the case of a suicidal vampire. When Carlisle finally spoke, it was much needed.

"Okay, thanks for your speech." And warning, although I would never allow it, he thought. "Edward, I do have good news for you: Bella is alive and well. She is at home as we speak. Alice is with her now. Esme and Alice have been taking turns helping Bella out while Charlie is at work. She will be back in a few days. You could probably go over there, if you would like. Bella has been thinking about you," he said with a hint of worry in his voice. I didn't know what it was for, and I wasn't sure I wanted to know. Nevertheless, he was blocking his mind from me, so I didn't have a choice. I was grateful that she was alive, but the impatience of not knowing what happened to make Carlisle worry took over; I would have time for happiness later, as long as Bella was alive and well.

"I want to lay low for awhile. I think she hates me," I said, guessing that that is why Carlisle was worrying. I put my head in my hands, knowing that they could still hear me if I talked. "I wouldn't blame her… after what happened. I hate myself. What happened after I left, Carlisle?" I asked, trying to put my family's attention on someone else. I hated my family's thoughts of sympathy for me; I didn't want them to feel sorry for me. I wanted to see Bella when she didn't hate me and was all better.

"She suffered a lot," Carlisle said, hearing my intake of breath. "She had a broken leg, four broken ribs, extreme bruising, and some cracks in her skull. Oh, and the nurses had to give her a few transfusions because she lost a lot of blood. She doesn't remember it, though."

I fell out of my chair and onto the ground. I didn't care; the only thing I cared for was Bella, my heart, my soul, and my life. She suffered extreme pain all because of me. I knew she would probably not admit that it was my fault if she was the stubborn Bella that I knew. She would say that it was her fault for whatever she thought happened.

Esme, Carlisle, Jasper, and Emmett came over to me. Through my thinking, I didn't notice that they were on side of me until I finally looked up. They had expressions of worry for me on their faces and in their minds.

Carlisle whispered the words that broke me out of my reverie. "Edward, she is going to be okay. She is home and the only scar that she has is that of her bruises and her broken leg."

I instantly shot up, okay for once. I would go see her once she was healed. I would be her saving angel. I just hope she doesn't hate me.

The next few days were the worst. Alice came back, telling me all about her visions of me. She said that she doesn't want to see a repeat. I told her that she shouldn't if Bella is okay.

She told me of one of them, the most disturbing one by far. "Bella was a vampire. She was so beautiful, Edward. You should keep your mind set to this. I know you will be surprised. There is NO getting into my head to see this one. You are going to have to see it for yourself when you change her," she said as she walked out of the room, her pixie-black hair blowing in the wind. I knew she had been changed to help me and Jasper. Alice was a saving angel for both of us; she always knew what to do.

After about a week with Esme and Alice trading shifts and Carlisle visiting in between, I decided that it would be a good idea to talk to Bella. I would prove my love back for her, no matter how much she hated me; I hated myself, but I was determined to redeem myself to the one person who matters to me. I didn't even deserve this, but I thought it was for the best.

I decided to take my Volvo to Bella's house, hoping that she would like to go for a ride with me. Of course, she knew our "secret," but I needed to also keep up appearances in case Charlie would come back earlier than usual; I didn't know what was normal now.

After a very short and fast drive, I arrived at Bella's house. Esme was there with her, and I knew that she would not mind me borrowing Bella for a bit. She might even love it, considering she had been begging me to see Bella. I just hoped Esme recognized me because I just ran in the house, too impatient to knock.

Esme seemed not to mind the fact that I was in the house. I stopped by the door, hoping to not interrupt anything. At the same time, Bella asked my mom a question that ripped me even further.

"Esme, will you tell me something?" Bella asked, hoping for an answer.

"Of course, Bella. What would you like to know?" Esme asked, patting Bella's head. Knowing Alice was here before Esme, because Bella's hair was fixed and styled. Bella probably had on the newest fashions, since she couldn't protest with a broken leg.

"Can you tell me about Edward?" Bella asked. Why is she asking this? Shouldn't she already know? I thought

Esme hesitated before answering. I guess she knew I was by the door. I also hesitated, wondering why Bella would not know this information. What would Esme tell her?

"Edward is a fine young man. He loves you dearly, you know. I adopted him when he was quite young; he was only 6 months old at the time. His parents had died of the flu when Carlisle was working at the hospital; he doesn't remember them. I remember he was such a cute little angel. The world seemed to brighten when I came to visit Carlisle and he was there. His mother wouldn't let him out of her sight, that poor thing. When she passed on, Carlisle wanted to adopt him. I couldn't have children, but I had always wanted some. We filed the adoption papers, and he was ours. He was such an angel growing up too. He never caused any trouble, unlike his brother, Emmett. He loves you. He should be coming home soon," she said, with a little note of sympathy at the end. She patted Bella's head again, trying to let Bella know that it was okay and she should calm down. She didn't seem so calm herself. Her thoughts were screaming panicked thoughts around her mind. Edward, you can come in now. I know you are there. I am so sorry that you had to find out like this, but Bella has amnesia. She can't remember anything, including you. Carlisle wanted you to find out by yourself. So sorry, Esme thought, trying to form coherent sentences. Would you like to come in? she asked. I whispered that I wouldn't the lowest that I could, not wanting Bella to hear. I had my mind made up when I started listening to Esme's "cover" for our relationship. I guess she wanted Bella to lead a normal life now; one without fairy tale creatures. I would help her out by not letting Bella know one of them: myself.

I went back home, hoping for something from Alice. I hadn't gotten to talk to her about the future, and I didn't know what to do. Bella couldn't remember us, so she couldn't remember our secret. Would Bella ever remember? Am I going to accept the fact that Bella don't remember? What am I going to do? How will Bella get her memory back if she does? What does she see now?

As soon as the car was back in the garage, I instantly started running to my room. I wanted to be alone for now. If Alice wanted to come, she would know that the door is open. I hoped she would.

Of course, Alice had seen this and danced into my room. She came sat next to me on my sofa, and she started rubbing my shoulder.

"Do I need to get Jasper in here? He could control your emotions, if you want," she said, concerned. She didn't want me to be hurt, and I knew she would do anything for me to be normal again. If she could, she would have changed Rosalie into a human again. She would do anything to keep the family happy.

I didn't say anything, but I thought that that would help. She instantly saw that I did in my vision, and she ran to get him. The couple came in a few seconds later holding hands.

"Edward, Bella is going to be okay. I can't see if she will remember everything, but I do know that you two will be happy once everything gets situated. Edward, just trust me when I say that I know you feel horrible about this. It wasn't your fault. James tricked us all. She is still alive, which is something. I can see you will be okay once you finally get this into your head. Why don't you go visit Bella tomorrow? I'll tell you all about her tonight," she said. I immediately felt calm, but I knew this was due to Jasper's hand on my shoulder. I would never be calm unless Jasper was here.

I nodded my head, too calm to speak. Alice looked at Jasper, and I felt some of the calmness disappear.

"Let's see. I seen that you found out Bella has amnesia. She doesn't know much. She remembers only the basic necessities. Don't feel bad; she didn't even know her own name in the hospital. She can remember things after the incident, but she can't remember things before. We have been telling her the human side of stories because we don't think that she is ready for the vampire version. We aren't trying to push her out of our lives like you thought. Carlisle doesn't think it would be smart to tell her our secret until she knows more about herself.

"Carlisle doesn't think her memories are going to come back; she had a lot of head trauma. Although he hopes that she will come to remember things, he doubts it.

"Carlisle believes that we should try to help Bella remember things, but we shouldn't force it upon her. Esme and I have tried showing her common momentous in her life, but she has not responded by remembering anything. We think that the only other hope is seeing you or hearing your melodies. Please give her a chance, Edward. I think you can help her more than we can. Please… Please… Please…Please…" she started showing me her puppy dog eyes.

"Alice, I will try. I can't guarantee anything, though. I wouldn't do this for anyone except Bella and you," I said. She knew what I was going to do before I spoke, and she was more delighted to hear my answer. Some of the answer probably weighed on Jasper's emotional manipulation, but I didn't care at the moment. I would help Bella.

"I'm trading shifts with Esme tomorrow. Why don't you come with me? Before you say something, I could tell you how she will react. I'll bring Jasper too, if he doesn't mind." She looked at Jasper with such a loving manner before he nodded. "You can see her then! I'm off!" She left, Jasper following.

I thought about what I should say before I left to go to Bella's house that night. I would bring her here so she can hear me play the piano. That might spark up something, I hoped.

"Edward, come on! I have everything ready to go in the car," Alice yelled from downstairs.

"I'm coming," I said. Please let this visit be okay. I don't want anything more to happen, I thought as I got in the car and Alice sped off.
