I Don't Own Twilight
Chapter Three
Bella P.O.V
My bedroom door opened and Seth popped his head in.
"What do you mean there's no book?" I gritted my teeth.
"That's exactly what I mean Seth, there's no fucking book in this stupid box." It looked like a light bulb went on in Seth's head.
"Is the diary in there?" I looked in the box and the small diary was there.
"Yeah but how is that going to help?" Seth grinned.
"Look through it, the next clue might be there." Seth smiled at me. "Bella just stay calm, everything is going to be ok." I chuckled sarcastically.
"I am calm Seth." I sneered, I was so not calm. "And how the hell is everything going to be ok. Did Jake tell you that as well?" Seth sighed and shut my door. I shook my head, I have to calm down. I took a few deep breaths and lay my head against my pillow. Ok Bella, relax. I felt myself calm down so I reached into the box and pulled out the diary. I lay back down and glanced down at the diary, I fanned it out and another piece of paper fell out of it. It floated to the floor and under the gap in the floor. I jumped to my feet and hurried to the door. I opened the door, everyone was watching me, I picked up the piece of paper and headed back into my room, I left my door open, I don't care if anyone comes in. I sat back down on the bed and looked down at the piece of paper. 'Took you long enough to figure out the combination. Bella I know I told Seth the book was with the diary, well…I lied. For the next part Bella you have to forgive Paul and I'm sorry for what Conan did to you today. Also I would like to apologize for the fact that both me and Leah couldn't be there when they both phased. Just forgive Paul, ask him what I told him to remember. If he's forgotten, I'm afraid you'll have to figure it out on your own.' I felt the tears running down my cheek; Jake knew they would both be dead by the time Conan and Aleighsha fazed.
"Bella are you ok?" Jasper was standing in front of me; he stepped in and shut the door. I smiled at him then sighed.
"Jasper, how can someone know everything that is going to happen?" He was about to answer. "And your not Alice." He sighed and looked to the floor.
"I don't know. What makes you think he knew everything?" I handed him the note.
"He knew everything Jasper, how is that possible?" Jasper was speechless.
"I honestly don't know Bella, unless he really could see the future." I shook my head.
"If he could see the future he would have been able to prevent all the attacks." Jasper was stumped and so was i. I stood up off the bed. "I need to find Paul now." Jasper nodded and followed me into the living room. Seth was sitting at the table staring into space. "Seth can you do me a favor?" Seth snapped out of whatever was happening.
"Sure Bella. What do you need?" I smiled.
"Find Paul and tell him I have to talk to him now." Seth nodded and ran out the front door. I pulled a bottle of water out of the fridge and sat down at the table with a sigh, it was then I noticed it was just the Cullens; everyone else was out or had gone home.
"Bella you sure you're ok?" I sighed.
"Honestly Jasper, I've been better." I took a drink of the water and sighed. So lets say Paul can't remember, I have to figure this out on my own. What could have caused this? I leaned over to the drawer and pulled out a pen and paper. What could have caused this? I kept repeating that in my head. Maybe they but something else in with the vampire venom last night.
I wrote that down on the piece of paper, that's all I could think of. Just then the door swung open, Seth was dragging Paul in.
"Bella no way in hell you're getting any information out of him, he's been drinking all afternoon." Seth looked down at me with concern all over him. I sighed and wiped the tear that fell from my eye. I was screwed.
"Seth can I ask one thing?" He nodded. "Did he put anything else in that shot last night that could be causing this to happen?" Seth shook his head.
"He only put venom in it. I sighed, I suppose it wouldn't be that simple. "Paul will come around soon Bella; you know the alcohol can't stay long in our system because the temperature we run at." I sighed, he was right. "Bella you're going to figure this out; you always do so stop worrying." I shook my head.
"That's the scary thing; I don't think I can solve this one Seth. It's scaring the shit out of me." I sighed and looked down to the note. "And how did he know this was going to happen?" I took another drink of water and took a deep breath.
"What do you mean Bella?" I sighed.
"Seth he knew everything. Jake knew that he and Leah wouldn't be here when Aleighsha and Conan phased, he knew that I was going to be to close to Conan when he phased, he knew this was going to happen to me. He knew it was going to happen today." I sighed and looked down at the pad of paper and scribbled out my only solution of why this was happening to me. "How did he know?" I muttered under my breath. Just then Aleighsha and Conan opened the front door.
"Who knew what Aunt B?" I smiled at them and looked at Seth as though asking him should I tell them. He shrug his shoulders, I decided they should know.
"You kids wanna take a walk with your old Aunt?" They both nodded but were confused. They both walked out the door and I was following until Seth grabbed my arm.
"Bella are you sure you want to tell them?" I looked to the ground.
"Well Seth we can't exactly keep it from them, it will be a worse outcome if they find out we are lying. They will both feel betrayed, all they have is the pack, I can't keep this from them." Seth nodded.
"Your right Bella, but do you want me to tell them incase they get angry?" I thought about that for a few seconds.
"No Seth, it's fine." He looked shocked that I had refused this, I was usually safety first.
"Bella are you sure?" I smiled at Seth and nodded.
"Seth if I can't figure this out I am going to start aging, I'm going to be like this until I die, and they both need to know that I trust them when I'm vulnerable." Seth nodded and pulled me into a hug.
"Just be careful." He whispered in my ear. I nodded and pulled away, jogging to catch up with them both. I couldn't help but try and phase while I was catching up with them. We walked in silence through the forest for about ten minutes until Conan broke the silence.
"Aunt B what's going on?" He turned to look at me and I sighed and sat down on the large rock that was sitting behind me.
"Well as you both know I have lost my ability to phase and I've lost my werewolf traits." The both nodded. "Well your dad used to tell everyone stories, futuristic stories, things that will happen in the future. I never paid attention because I never believed; it was as simple as that; I thought he was talking shit. But apparently he wasn't." Both Aleighsha and Conan sat down on the rock. "One story was about the Alpha losing the ability to phase and losing their traits. I can remember that they can get everything back, but I can't remember how. I also can remember one phrase, 'two days'; I think it means I have two days to figure this out or I'm going to start aging." The both nodded for me to carry on. "I remembered Jake giving me a book, he said I would need it one day. This is the day; but I don't know where the book is." There mouths fell into 'o' shapes. "I remembered back to when you dad told me to stop reading my favorite book, that's where we found the first clue." Conan looked confused.
"What did the clue say Aunt B?" I sighed.
"It said 'Told you this would happen Bella. Now follow the clues to get the book. First clue- the book is in your room beside the blue book.' You dad knew this was going to happen to me; he told Seth where the blue book was, told him he would need to remember for the future." The both gasped. "The blue book was in a combination box, one that I didn't put there, Jake did. I didn't know the combination so I've sat for most of my day today trying to figure out the combination, then it hit me. If your dad knew this was going to happen well maybe he knew it was going to happen on this exact date. So I tried it; 0402 and the box opened." Aleighsha stood up.
"So my dad could tell the future or something?" I looked up at her.
"I don't know Aleighsha, it's been bugging me all day. Anyway -" Conan cut me off.
"There's more?" I nodded.
"The book wasn't there, but the blue book was, I found another note." Aleighsha jumped in.
"What did this one say?" I pulled it of my pocket and started reading.
"It said 'Took you long enough to figure out the combination. Bella I know I told Seth the book was with the diary, well…I lied. For the next part Bella you have to forgive Paul and I'm sorry for what Conan did to you today. Also I would like to apologize for the fact that both me and Leah couldn't be there when they both phased. Just forgive Paul, ask him what I told him to remember. If he's forgotten, I'm afraid you'll have to figure it out on your own.' He knew this was going to happen, he knew everything that was going to happ- " Conan cut me off.
"He knew that both him and mom were going to die?" I looked to the ground and wiped the tear that fell.
"I think he did Conan." I knew Conan would take it hard, he never got to say bye to them the day they left in the car.
"He knew they were both going to die that day and he never let me say bye." I watched as Conan started falling apart. I stood up and pulled him into a hug, I could see Aleighsha crying and I pulled her into the hug as well.
"Conan you have to look at it like this as well. Maybe he didn't know they we both going to die that day, but he knew they wouldn't be here were you phased." I pulled away and wiped the tears away from Aleighsha and Conan's eyes. "You mom and dad loved you both dearly, don't forget that, Conan he would have said bye to you that day ok. I don't think he knew so don't think anything stupid ok?" Conan nodded and smiled at me.
"You always know how to make me feel better Aunt B, thanks." He kissed me on my left cheek and started walking the way we came. Aleighsha pulled me into a hug.
"I love you Aunt B and thanks for being here for me and Conan." I smiled and kissed her on the cheek.
"It's been no problem and I love you and your brother so much. Never forget that ok?" She nodded and we headed back to the house. We were almost back when Aleighsha spoke.
"Is it ok if I go for a run Aunt B?" I smiled and nodded.
"Just be careful, I don't know what I would do if you or Conan got hurt." She nodded then she was gone. I walked the short distance back to the house to find that Conan and Seth gone. "Where are Conan and Seth?" Rosalie looked up from the couch.
"They're both away for a run." I smiled at her then walked back over to the table where Paul was lying across. I pulled open the drawer and pulled the hand gun out. All the Cullens gasped.
"What the hell are you doing Bella?" Jasper was standing in front of me. I chuckled.
"I'm no suicidal Jasper. Lets just say Paul will say he doesn't know anything when he does. I can't phase and attack him like usual so I will go the old fashioned way. Shoot him until he speaks." Emmett started laughing.
"I love you Bella." Emmett was in front of me in the blink of an eye and pulled me into a death hug.
"Emmett she has to breath." Rosalie slapped him on the side of the head as he sat me back down on the ground.
"Thanks Rosalie." I loaded the gun and fell back into the chair across from Paul. "He should be waking up around now." I opened the bottle of water and took a drink just as Paul started groaning, I decided to throw the rest of the water over him to wake him up.
"What the fuck?" He asked looking around. He stood up to walk away and I pulled the gun out.
"Sit down now Paul." I sneered. Horror went across Paul's face as he sat down. "I need you to remember what Jake told you to remember all those years ago." Paul chuckled.
"Bella why the fuck are you using a gun?" I glared at him…oh yeah he didn't know.
"Well lets just say that if you don't remember what Jake told you, I'm never going to phase again which means i'm going to start aging." Paul grinned.
"Sweet, so I become Alpha." I growled and pulled back the trigger shooting him in the arm. He yelped out in pain as he fell off the chair with a thud. I threw the gun onto the table and walked over to him.
"Paul please tell me what Jake told you. I'm scared shitless, I don't know what's happening." Paul laughed.
"It's kinda clear what is happening Bella, your not a shape-shifter anymore." I growled and picked the gun up and aimed it at his leg and shot him again, he yelped out in pain once again.
"Listen to me Paul, if you remember you tell me now your I'm going blow your fucking brains out." I wouldn't really, it's just a threat. "Now speak." Paul sighed and pulled himself up off the floor back onto the chair.
"Ok Bella. And it wasn't that important. It was just a page number to the legend book. That one over there." He pointed to the books that were all back in the bookcase. "He said page 237. Bella that is all I know so please don't shot me again." I dropped the gun on the table and bolted over to the bookcase and pulled the book out. I plopped down onto the chair and opened the book. I found page 237, the page was about imprints. In the top corner Jake had scribbled down something again. 'Read this page and remind yourself what your imprint is.' I did what he said and read the page, the one bit that stuck out the most was the part where it said 'You can't live without whoever you have imprinted and they can't live without you.' Which in some way would mean Edward can't live without me. I got to the bottom of the page and read Jake's next note. 'Now go to the back of the book.' I went to the back of the book and usually where there was a blank page, Jake had written again. 'Now Isabella Swan, time for the wraith of Jacob Black.' I gulped this was bad if he was using his whole name. 'You read the page and you remember what your imprint is. Now why the hell are you ignoring yours; I have to admit when I knew this would happen I was furious. You remember that week I didn't want to talk to you.' Of course I remember it, it was the week I kept the diary, I felt like I couldn't talk to no one because I didn't have Jake. So I kept it in the diary. 'Well Bella that was the day I found out you were going to imprint on that leech. I was going to kill you I was so mad, then I realized, you can't help who you imprint on, it's fate and because you're going against fate your powers have stopped working. Bella it's your choice, you can grow old with some man your not suppose to be with or you can get past yourself and get together with him. Just remember if you go with choice one you will always know and feel that you don't belong with him. Or even worse you grow old alone. Bella he loves you and stop pretending he doesn't. You have until 6pm tomorrow night to make your decision, DON'T be stubborn. Love you always Bells. Ps thanks for helping the kids earlier and please always remind them that Leah and I both love them.
I shut the book over just as a tear slide of my cheek. A happy tear, I do have something to think about but it was something simple in a weird way. I pulled myself of the chair, everyone was looking at me.
"Bella have you figured it out?" Seth walked through the door with Aleighsha and Conan behind him. I nodded.
"Yeah I have, but for now; I'm going to bed, I have to think about something." Just then my stomach rumbled. "I'm going to bed after I've had something to eat." I looked at the clock on the wall, it was 11pm. Wow, that late? It was then I noticed Paul was squirming. "And what's the matter with you?" Paul looked up at me from the chair.
"The skins healed over the bullets." I chuckled whereas everyone else gaped.
"Well doctor Bella coming through." I walked over to the drawer and pulled out a knife. Paul gasped.
"Bella don't you dare." I looked at Conan.
"Hold him down." Conan grinned and knocked Paul off the chair and sat on his chest so he couldn't move. "Which one first, the leg or arm?" Paul sighed in defeat.
"Arm." Emmett chuckled.
"Your really going to let her cut you open?" Emmett was gob smacked.
"He's got no choice Emmett." I grinned at him.
"Bella, Carlisle is here." Emmett pointed to Carlisle who was standing with his face in a 'o' shape.
"Let's just pretend Carlisle isn't here." I winked at Emmett then looked at Paul. I sat down next to him. "You ready?" He nodded. So I pulled my hand back and stabbed him in the arm where the bullet went in, i pulled the knife out then poked the tip in and pinged the bulled out. I slapped him on the arm and he screamed. "One down one to go." Seth was chuckling. The blood was making a small puddle on the floor, by the time I looked back up, it had healed. "By the way are you guys ok with the blood?" I looked up to the Cullens who were still shocked at what I had done, they all nodded. "Good, time for the leg." I moved so I was kneeling next to his leg. I did the same thing to his leg that I did to his arm. Conan got off him and I leaned down and gave him my hand to help him up. He glared at me.
"You didn't think you did enough when you shot me…twice. You shot me twice then decide you want to cut me open." He took a deep breath. "You have gone mad Isabella Swan." I growled at him and lifted the knife to him.
"Don't call me Isabella. And I know I'm mad." Seth started laughing.
"Bella you really are something different aren't you?" I chuckled.
"You've known me for 100 years and you're just noticing that now?" I blinked in amazement. "Why haven't you noticed it before? I've always been weird and mad." I walked out front and dropped the knife into the trash can. "So who's up for a late dinner?" I asked. "As if I even need to ask." I muttered as I walked back in. "Pizza?" Seth, Paul, Conan and Aleighsha all cheered. I chuckled and walked over to the phone and dialed for the local pizza delivery.
"Hey Quil." Quil owned the pizza delivery.
"Hey Bells, the usual?" I chuckled.
"No actually add an extra four to the usual." Quil chuckled.
"Ok Bells won't be long." I grinned.
"Sure Quil, see you soon." The line went dead and I turned to see the Cullens all looking at me. "What?"
"Why did you order and extra four? Remember we don't eat." I chuckled.
"I'm not stupid. It's just Aleighsha and Conan will want to eat a lot more than they used to, so they will want more pizza." Seth chuckled.
"Good thinking Bells, because I'm not sharing my pizza." I chuckled at Seth's comment. We all fell into our own conversations; it was great to see all the Cullens and the pack getting along together. I could feel the tiredness creeping up on me, I couldn't stop yawning. About half an hour later the door chapped and Seth bolted out of his chair. He paid for the pizzas and brought the ten extra-large pizzas to the table. I managed to eat half of one then decided to call it a night.
"I'm going to bed, I'm shattered. Come round tomorrow, everything will be sorted out by then." Seth looked confused.
"I thought you had solved it?" I stopped at my bedroom door and turned around to look at Seth.
"I have Seth, I just have to decide now." I shut my door and fell onto my bed. The last thing I remember was the murmurs from everyone. As soon as my head hit the pillow, I was out of it.
I woke up to Emmett's booming laugh in the living room. Is it still late at night or did they never leave or maybe they are back early. I sighed, big decision day. Decision One – Grow old maybe meet someone and settle down. Or Decision Two – Declare my love for Edward and feel like an idiot when he rejects me. He didn't want me all those years ago, so why would he want me now. BUT if the stories were true then Edward loves me too. I let my hand feel along the side of my bed until I found the book. I lifted it up and opened it up to the back page. One bit stuck out to me; 'DON'T be stubborn.' Maybe I was supposed to be with Edward, I would never stop loving him, I could never love anyone else, so it only makes sense.
Well that's it decided then; go with decision two and if he rejects me, well I don't know what to do. Come to that when it happens. I dragged myself out of my bed and headed for the shower, my face would sting like fuck though. I opened up my bedroom door and walked into the bathroom turning the shower on, I hoped in and yes, my face hurt like fuck. When I came out I still felt like a bloody zombie, maybe I could have Paul through a bucket of water over me every morning. I got changed into the clothes I brought with me and headed back to my bed room to dry my hair. My day was going to be boring. I heard snarling out in the yard, I looked out to see Seth and Paul fighting. Emmett was pouncing and the rest of the Cullens were shaking their heads at Emmett. Well all of them except Edward. I turned to walk out of my bed room door and jumped, Edward was standing there in front of me.
"Bella I'm so-" Edward started, but I don't know what came over me. I crushed my lips so his, I was waiting for him to push me away, but he didn't; our lips started moving in sync, it felt right. I pulled away, I had to breathe.
"Edward, can I ask one thing?" He nodded. "Don't ever leave me again." He grinned.
"Bella I will never leave you again." I crushed my lips to his again, I pulled away and smirked.
"I believe I owe Emmett a fight and I owe you a race." I raised my eyebrows.
"Bella, your face has just healed." I grinned at him.
"I know." I brushed my lips against his.
"What was wrong?" He clasped his hand around mine as I walked over to my bed and picked up the book.
"Read page 237 and follow Jakes instructions. You do that while I wrestle Emmett." He kissed me on the cheek as I ran to the living room and out the front door. "Woo Hoo Emmett brother, I believe I owe you a fight." I wiggled my eyebrows at Emmett.
"Your cured?" I gasped.
"It wasn't a disease I had Emmett…it was a malfunction of sorts." I grinned at him. "You ready to get beaten?" He grinned. "Whoever pins who first."
"Bring it on lil sis." I looked to Rosalie.
"I will hurt him Rosalie but I promise I won't kill him." She grinned.
"Bella do what you like." I chuckled.
"Your fucked Emmett." Seth muttered from behind Emmett. I phased, it felt good to be back in my wolf form. I shook out my white coat and looked at Emmett. He lunged at me, I heard a few gasps from the Cullens because I didn't move. I waited till he was close in front of me and used my claw to hit him into the tree.
"Fuck sake Bella, you're strong." Seth and Paul chuckled. I taunted Emmett for a few minutes, but it was getting boring. So I just lunged at him and pinned him to the ground. I licked him on the cheek and jumped off him. "Bella that is gross." I howled with laughter. Seth was holding out some clothes for me so I took them in my mouth and jogged into the forest to phase. I walked back out grinning like a Cheshire cat.
"I told you I would beat you Emmett." Emmett was over to me and gave me a death hug.
"Em-me-tt." I choked out. He let me go. "Stop giving me death hugs." Everyone started laughing.
"Death hugs?" Emmett looked hurt. "And you want me to stop hugging you?" I felt bad; I loved Emmett's hugs just not his death hugs.
"I love your hugs Emmett, just not your death hugs." I grinned at him and he hugged me again, but letting me breathe this time.
"Better?" Emmett asked.
"Extremely." Emmett chuckled as he let go of me again.
"I've just missed you baby sis." I grinned and through my arm around his shoulder.
"I missed you too Emmy." He grinned at his nickname.
"You owe Edward a race now Bella." I chuckled.
"Oh yeah Emmett don't let me forget." Just then Edward walked out of my house with a smug grin on his face.
"What's got all Eddie happy?" Edward didn't even flinch when Emmett called him Eddie. He just grinned at me. I chuckled and wiggled my eyebrows at him.
"You up for a race Cullen?" He nodded his head. Emmett stepped forward.
"Ok your racing to our house. But let us get there, we wanna see who wins." I nodded as all the Cullens and wolfs left except me, Edward and Seth.
"I'm saying 'Go' and making sure there is no cheating." I laughed.
"Ok then Seth. We're readying." I phased in my white wolf again and Edward came and stood next to me.
"3-2-1 Go!" I took off running into the woods, Edward was beside me, but I wasn't pushing myself. We crossed the treaty line in a matter of seconds and I started to push myself further. We came to the lake outside the Cullens and I leaped a good few seconds before Edward. I crossed the line first as Emmett cheered. It was then I noticed there were a few more vampires standing. The strawberry blonde haired girl ran forward.
"Edward it's good to see you." She ran over to him then crushed her lips to his. I felt my heart stop; I bolted out of there quicker than I have ever moved.
