AN: So happy. I love all you people who reviewed and added me to your lists. And I kept my Thanksgiving promise. Here's the chapter. THANK YOU! R&R

I didn't get very far into Wuthering Heights before I was disturbed by a knock at my window. I sighed, put the book down and started walking towards the window to let Edward in.

I reached out to unlock my window, and received a shock when I saw Alice outside my window. I froze.

She was obviously shouting something at me, and when I realized that, I didn't hesitate in opening the window for her.

In came Alice, rain and all. When she set foot on the ground she almost collapsed. I was really freaked out about all of this.

"Alice, what happened? What's wrong?" I was asking while helping her up. "Is everything all right?" And that last question really set her off.

"Is everything all right? Is everything all right? You completely disappeared at the airport, you go off to meet some insane vampire completely intent on torturing you to death, and now Edward and Carlisle are trying to tell the rest of us that you are a vampire.

When you and Edward showed up, Rosalie and I were thinking that you were just asking that question out of plain curiosity. Worst of all, he left you totally unsupervised in a house with a human full of blood."

I was a little shocked about this rant, especially considering the fact it was coming from Alice. I was kind of afraid she was going to attack.

Alice ignored my silence and continued on her lecture. "Edward—"

"Knows what he's doing, believe it or not. He's not exactly stupid." I interrupted. I was really pissed that Alice was going off on Edward for all of this. Alice was silent.

"You're right," she finally whispered, "but I still don't know what he was thinking."

"Maybe he trusted me."

"You're probably right. I wonder why, though." We were both quiet.

Alice was right about one thing. Why did Edward leave me in a house with a human? Maybe he wanted to see if I would kill Charlie, or let him live. That could be true.

I winced as a sudden wave of pain swept over me. If Edward's theory was true, then someone near me must be hurting, either physically, or emotionally.

"When Edward told me you had become a vampire, I didn't believe it." Alice said, breaking the silence.

I looked up at her. "Why?"

"You don't look like a vampire. Your teeth look, very sharp, but that's about it. You look exactly the same, even your eyes are exactly the same. Edward even said you still fall the same way you used to." She laughed.

"He seriously said that?"

"Yes." And the beautiful silence took over again.

"Do you want to come back to the house? Time passes a lot more quickly there than here."

"Thanks, but no thanks. I have stuff to do here."

"Like explain to Charlie why you miraculously showed up in Forks after saying you were leaving and never coming back." I nodded. "Well, good luck with that," Alice said, and with that, jumped back out my window and into the rain.

I closed the window, locked it, flopped back onto my bed, and picked up Wuthering Heights, but not before taking a look at my alarm clock.

3:46 A.M.

This night is never going to end.
