Previously:
"That is a great idea Jasper. Just remember I love you I always will just not the same as before. You deserve to be happy also." said Alice. Her emotions started to show back to the way she before everything happened.
I smiled at her, "Come on let's go break the news to everyone else." And with that we took off toward the house…
JPOV
It's been a month since I left Alaska, and the divorce has been finalized just before that. I have to give it to J. Jenks he does work fast with the right motivation. I smirk. I wasn't surprised on how everyone took the news through…
Flashback
"Family Meeting we have news." said Alice as soon as we walked into the door.
Everyone was down in the living room of the Denali's home including the Denali's themselves.
"We know this isn't the greatest time to inform everyone especially since…" Alice started to say but trailed off not wanting to say anything about Bella.
"We think it time for us to divorce." I said and everyone gasped. I was feeling everyone disbelief.
"But I thought you two were mates." said Carlisle. I knew he wanted to say more, but didn't because of Edward.
"No we're not. We are best friends and companions, and were sometimes lovers, but we were never mates. I admit I thought we were, but the connection wasn't there as it is with you and Esme or Rosalie and Emmett. Anyways, Alice recently had a vision of us with our true mates, and we are happier. It's just unfortunate that it is happening at a time of loss." I said and Tanya snorted at my choice of words. I knew she didn't see it as a loss.
"I am glad you both are ok with the decision on divorce, and I am glad you informed us. Hopefully everything will work for the best." said Carlisle giving a gentle smile, but he was still in shock and disbelief.
"And to let all of you know I am going to visit Peter and Charlotte for a while after the divorce is final. The emotions are a little too much for me right now, but I will return later on. And who knows I may have found my mate by then and bring her with me." I said.
"Ok son just don't forget about us, and keep in touch for Esme." said Carlisle.
"Will do." I told him.
End of Flashback
I was more shocked at what Edward said to me right when I was leaving…
Flashback
"Don't go anywhere near Forks. She needs time to heal. Without us interfering in her life" said Edward.
"Well Edward, I wasn't planning on it. I don't even think she would want to see me since I was the cause for us moving away, and how would you know she is still in Forks? She could have gotten into any college and be in any state by now, or across the seas studying at Cambridge or one of the others." I told him.
He sighed while rubbing his neck, "I don't know where she is at any more, and your right she could be anywhere and I can't stop from running into her if she is going to college elsewhere. I want her to live a normal life."
"Look Edward you can't protect her anymore. You gave that up the moment you left her. Now let her decide what she wants to do with her life. She may be doing just fine or a complete wreck. And if she runs into trouble, has a safe life with a family, or runs in a nomad and befriends them, but it is her life and her choice. You're with Tanya now worry about her." I said to him.
"Yeah your right, I can't keep trying to control her life, but I do miss her." He said.
"I know you miss her…Now. When you first got after you left her I felt your emotions. You were happy, smug, and proud, and I am guess because you felt overwhelmed on constantly protecting her and were glad to get rid of that burden. Though I am not sure why you felt proud." I asked.
He looked down ashamed, "Yeah I was glad. And I was proud because it was easier to let go then I thought, but now I am not so proud at what I said to her before I left I was a complete asshole. I don't think she will ever forgive me. I wouldn't blame her though, and to let you know she said she never blamed you for what happened at the party Jasper. I guess no one told you that." He said.
I was shocked to say the least, "Well if she is able to forgive me then she will most likely forgive you. She was always understanding, compassionate, and observant. Take care of yourself Edward I need to get down to see my other brother Peter." And with that he nodded and wished me luck and I was off to Texas.
End of Flashback
I do still think about Bella I wonder how she is doing.
"Hey Fucker, are you done reminiscing yet or do I have to come in there and kick your ass?" yelled Peter from outside.
"You I wish you could take me Asshole. And yeah I am done." I told him as I walked outside.
"And don't worry to my about the girl she is meant for great things I am just not sure what yet." Peter said.
"You and your Damn gift of just knowing shit." I muttered shaking my head. And Charlotte laughed.
"Oh sug, you know he is only trying to help ease your worry." said Char.
"I know Char I just wish he wasn't so cryptic all the fuckin' time." I said.
And Char laugh even more at that. I love how easy our relationship is. It is great to be home…
BPOV 2 Years Later.
Wow time is moving so quickly. I just about finished my 2nd year of college. Riley and Victoria are inseparable now. Riley knows the secret and it was interesting day when he found out. That was 6 months after they started dating…
Flashback
"Ri I know we haven't been together long, but there is something I need to tell and I don't know how you are going to take it." Vicky said nervously.
"Vicky you know you can tell me anything. What is it you need to tell me?" Riley told her taking her hands in his.
Vicky sighed then looked to me, I nodded to her to continue, then she look back at Riley, "Ri I am a Vampire."
Riley raised an eyebrow and smiled, "You're kidding right? Vampires don't exist."
"Riley I am sorry but they do. I know for about 2 years now. You remember the Cullens?" I asked him, he nodded at me. "They are Vampires too. You can't tell anyone Riley. The only reason we are telling you is because you are Victoria's soul mate."
"How do you know?" He asked me.
"I figured it out. I was too observant I noticed little things that normally are missed by other people, their unnatural beauty, the color of their eyes, their lack of eating, their coldness, and their speed. It was an accident that Edward showed me his speed. You remember when Tyler Van nearly hitting me?" he nodded again. "Well he was on the other side of the parking lot a few second before Tyler was in the parking lot then the next second he was by me stopping the van with one hand. I question him, but he never gave me answers. A week later I and a few others went to La Push beach I was friends with a boy from the rez he was at the beach. Well I knew he had a crush on me so I flirted with him so he would tell me about the Legends of the tribe. He gave me the word Cold One I looked it up later online and found information on Vampires then I confronted Edward. Shortly after that we started to date. I was told I Edward's mate later found out that that was a lie. Are you ok do you want to take a break I know this is a lot to take in?" I informed him.
"Yes a break would be good." He said. He got up and walked outside, processing everything that we told him. After about an hour he came back in, "Ok let me get all this straight. You are a Vampire, and you have known all along." He pointed to Vicky first then to me. We both nodded then he continued, "Then what do you feed from I thought it was blood?"
"It is blood, but not the blood of innocents. I hunt down murders, rapist, etc. Bella has more to tell you before I tell you more." Vicky said.
"Ok I am listening." Riley said.
I sat there telling Riley of my past with the Cullens inform him about the difference in the eye colors, the meaning behind them. I tell him about when I left Forks then came in a cast the whole truth behind that. I told him about my birthday party then three days later how Edward left me.
"Afterwards Vicky found me and took me home and told me that Edward could never have done that if we were mated, and she would be there for me as a friend. She has been my best friend and sister to me since then, and seeing you two has given me hope that there is still someone out there for me. And when the time comes, when I am ready, I was going to have Vicky change me." I said to him.
"Wow. You have been through a lot. So you are telling me all of this because you want me changed?" asked Riley.
"Yes, I want you to have the choice. I will understand if you don't, but you needed to know the truth. I love you Ri and I never want to lose you, but this has to be your choice." said Vicky.
Riley smiled and said, "Victoria I love you too, and I would love to spend forever with you. I can't see it any other way. Just not right now I want to be change the same time as Bella so we all will be together and work through things together."
"I think that is a great idea." said Vicky walking over to sit with her mate.
End of Flashback
Riley moved in with us and shortly after that we fully closed off the room upstairs and sound proofed it so I wouldn't have to hear them too going at it.
Well after everything we have been through. I think it is finally time for the change. I am 20 now, been through almost two years of college, I know Charlie is going to be ok because of Sue Clearwater. From what I heard from Seth they are engaged now. I wish that I could see him get married, but we don't need the Volturi breathing down our necks for knowing the secret and not being changed or killed. It's only been luck that they haven't found out by now.
"Hey Vicky, I am ready now to be changed." I told her.
"Are you sure?" she asked. I nodded. "Ok let's start planning our deaths to give everyone closure. Then once we are settled in the new place in Alaska I will change you two. Maybe I can talk Laurent and Irina to help out for your first year."
"I would suggest drive off the floating bridge late into the night when not many on the bridge leave items in it to identify us. And when we don't show up for exams on Monday that will be the confirmation that it was us just the current took us away. Could you damage the car to make it look like we went through the windshield?" suggested Riley.
"Yeah I could great idea. I am going to call Laurent to get down here. Pack up some personal items that you want to keep for an eternity. Then we will load all of this into his car then go to the club so we have some witnesses to see us together before the crash." said Vicky.
"Let's hope the Cullens move on from there." I said.
Vicky snorted, "Yeah let's, I will text him so he can get away from there before we talk." she said as she pulled out her phone and texted Laurent. About 45 minutes later he called. They chatted for 10 minutes. Vicky hung up the phone, then turned to us and said, "Their in."…
