Chapter 3 – The Accident Part 1 The Worst Vision

BPOV

I was still recovering from Edwards wonderful-too-short kiss when he dashed over to Alice and Jasper. Alice was spacing out and leaning forward.

"ALICE!" I shouted and sprang after Edward. I wasn't nearly as fast and I fell once, so in what should have been maybe ten seconds ended up being thirty.

When I reached the trio Edward was bent over Jasper, who flipped Alice onto her back. I knelt down on her other side.

Edward was in deep concentration, trying to see what she was seeing, but he looked frustrated, so he obviously wasn't able to see it.

A minute after she spaced out, Alice sat up with a start.

"Edwin…Bella…EDWARD!" she looked around frantically until her eyes found Edward. She threw her arms around him and started crying tearlessly.

"Lets get her home then she can tell us what she saw." Jasper said. He picked Alice up, prying her arms from around Edward, and shielded her protectively. "See ya at home." He took off.

"Come on." Edward said and ran after Jasper.

I crossed my arms and tapped my foot.

Edward appeared in front of me. "Sorry."

I smiled. "Forgiven." He threw me onto his back and I buried my face in his back. As often as I had done this, I still never got used to it, nor felt the need to watch how fast we were going or see what was passing by. It just made it frightening.

A minute later we were at his giant house. Jasper appeared seconds later. No one was kidding when they said Edward was the fastest, even carrying me when Jasper was carrying light little Alice.

Alice was still crying, only not as heavily. Her chest just heaved up and down. Alice never cries. Something was seriously wrong.

Edward didn't let me down, and Jasper kept a hold of Alice. They locked eyes with each other, sharing a secret via thoughts. That got annoying.

"Edward." I ruffled his hair. "Hello?" he didn't look back or acknowledge that he had heard me. "WHATS WRONG?!" I shouted, leaning into his ear.

He started. "Geeze. You didn't have to scream in my ear."

"First of all I shouted. Second of all what are you guys talking about in those heads of yours? And lastly, WHATS WRONG WITH ALICE!?"

"First, there is no difference. Second, Jasper says there is a hostile, yet joyous feeling passing around us. And lastly, I don't know. She saw something that upset her. We have to get her to tell us. Come on." He nodded his head toward the house and headed up the steps.

I was still on his back.

We charged inside. "Rosalie. Emmett. Carlisle. Esme." He called in what a kindergarten teacher would call his 'inside voice' to his family. All of whom could hear him from wherever they were.

Carlisle and Emmett emerged from Carlisle's study upstairs. Rosalie and Esme entered from the kitchen. All of them gasped when they saw Alice, sobs and all, in Jasper's arms, and rushed to Jasper's side. He had one arm under her and the other wrapped protectively around her. I have no idea how he managed that. His arms must be long.

Carlisle tried to take Alice from Jasper, but he hissed at him. "Alright." Carlisle said. "What happened?"

"We were in the forest, about to have our picnic when Alice just keeled over and then she saw something. When she came to she said…" I stopped.

"Edwin…Bella…EDWARD!" Alice said again, hopping out of Jaspers arms. She stopped when she saw me, crawling down, finally, off Edwards back.

"Oh." She whispered, somehow shocked that I was standing in front of her. "OH!" she ran forward and embraced me, pulling me off the ground and knocking the breath out of me.

"That." I choked, kicking my feet and pointing at Alice.

Edward came over and carefully pried Alice's arms from around me.

"You're human! And alive!" she said with a smile bigger than that happy face pancake at The International House of Pancakes, I swear.

"Um, yes?" I said, giving Edward a quizzical look. He shrugged.

"Good!"

"Um, Alice?" I asked, cued by Edward.

"Yes?" she asked, jumping on her toes, suddenly wired.

"In the meadow…what did you see?"

"Meadow? OH!" she gasped. "OH NO!"

"What? What's wrong?" Jasper was instantly at her side, like he had just dissolved there.

"Edwin. He…he's going to…" she rubbed at her head and started sobbing again. "Bite Bella." A gasp made everyone's lip's part. "Then…then Bella…she…she…." she sobbed.

"Alice…sweetheart…come on…you can do it." Jasper wrapped his arms around her and she turned into him.

"Kills Edward…" I started to cry. Edward pulled me to him, combing my hair with his fingers and squeezing me tight. I sobbed loudly, I was surprised that everyone could hear Alice as she continued. "And…and…the Volturi come and kill Bella." Now Edward reared his head back with a roar. A menacing roar of anger and pain. It echoed throughout the house, shaking the entire floor we were standing on and causing everyone's hands to shoot to their ears. When he put his head back on the top of mine, his cheek on my forehead, his cheek was wet. He had started to cry, silently.

His chest was expanding and contracting, breathing hard, obviously thinking and trying not to nearly blow everyone's eardrums.

"When?" he finally asked, not moving an inch. His mouth barely moved as he whispered his question to Alice.

"No." Jasper said suddenly. "Edward."

"NO!" Edward shouted loudly, instantly straightening and tightening his arms around me. I was still sobbing.

"What is it?" Esme asked. I noticed a tear streaking down her face. Carlisle too was shaking like Edward. Pissed that someone was going to cause his sons love to kill him and herself, no doubt.

"That feeling…the hostile and joyous feeling…it was Edwin. It is supposed to happen anytime now." Edward hissed between his teeth, once again tightening his grip on me. "He's circling in. Why couldn't I pick up his mind when we came in? Or when we were with him?"

"No!" I said, surprising everyone. I stopped crying and pushed away from him, which shocked him even more than my talking. His expression was pained. "This is not your fault! Do you hear me Edward Cullen?! This is not your fault!" I shook a finger at him. "Blame yourself again and I will never kiss you ever, ever again!" I threatened.

I know he knew better than to believe that, but he sighed. "Okay." he opened his arms, eyes looking hopeful that I would come back. I did.

Everybody else had gone to watch for Edwin.

Edward pulled me to him. "I love you more than you will ever, ever know. And if you do indeed kill me," I started to interject, but he pressed his lips to mine quickly to silence me. That was, by far, the best way ever invented to get me to shut up, or not talk. Whichever. It didn't matter. It was still the best. "I will still love you. Always and forever."

I sighed into his chest. "I love you with every part of me." I whispered.

He pulled my head off his chest, a hand on either side of my face. "Good thing you're smaller than I am. Because I love you more." He pressed his lips to mine, lightly, yet harshly. A kiss I had felt only at times he thought would be our last together. His lips parted ever so slightly and allowed my tongue to brush against his front teeth. His tongue carefully touched mine when a crash emerged from the back of the house. Somebody had broken through one of the glass walls.

"DAMN IT!" I screamed.

"DAMN!" Edward shouted.

His teeth had bit my tongue.
