Chapter 8
BPOV
"So, since you have agreed to marry me. When will you change me? So i can be like you, and we will never have to be apart." Edward asked.
Everyone was thinking the same thing 'here we go again.' except Alice who was still singing hit me baby one more time. What was she hiding.
Had he completely lost his mind. What made him think I would change him that was never an option. I guess Alice would see what I was gonna say because she thought this right when I opened my mouth 'You agreed to marry him Bella, so what else can you do?'
She was right even tho I didn't want her to be she was. When I looked around it seemed my family sunk out to give us some privacy.
"Are you sure this is what you want?" I asked him.
"Yes Bella, I want this, I want you forever." he told me.
"How can I say no to that. Can you at least wait a while, until you are a little older? For your mother's sake." I asked him.
"Fine, I will wait until I am 18, no longer than that." he replied.
That didn't give us much time, but I could tell he wasn't going to change his mind not right now. So I nodded, I took the chain from my neck that held the ring he had given me all those years ago. And placed it in his hand. He looked down at it and smiled, "I know this ring. I have seen a picture of someone with this ring on before at my grandmothers house.I smiled back, "yes, it was in your family for years, before you gave it to me. I never took it off, even now I wear it around my neck ." He was speechless at that. He just looked at me with so much love in his eyes, took my hand and placed the ring on my finger. How I made it all these years with out I will never know, nor will I understand how fast all of this is happening. No sooner do I tell me the truth does he profess his love for me and I admit to mine. I do love him, of course I do but something in me is telling me this is all happening too fast that he may regret it in the long run.
I look into his eyes looking for a flicker of doubt and I see now. "Do you remember anything from your past life?" Esme asked him. He unlocked his eyes from mine to answer her. "Yes, some things I have always remember, like the name Isabella, and her face I never forgot that. I dreamed about it my whole life, just thought it was my imagination till now. Something are a blur, but when I go somewhere I remember it I just cant place the memory and my mother and father would tell me I had never been there but I knew I had. It was really annoying honestly." he explained. "I am sure it was. At least now you know the truth." She smiled at him and he nodded. She took him into the kitchen for dinner right when Alice can up to me. "Bella, come hunt with me will you, Jazz doesn't want to go. I looked over to Jasper who was singing the nation anthem. And then turned my gaze to Alice, she was doing the Britney Spears thing again. This was really getting aggravating. "fine Alice." I told her. And he left, once we where out of ear shot of everyone Alice slowed. I looked to her, I couldn't read her expression. "Alice what is going on?" I asked her. She showed me her vision.
VISION
"Finally I have you all to myself. This will be most enjoyable." Victoria stated. Edward walked right up to her and spit in her face. "I am not afraid of you!! You can not scared me." he yelled. Victoria's raged could be tasted. "Bad move, you should fear me." she warned. "Never, no matter what you do to me, nothing you say or do will scare me." Victoria lunged for him. Then everything went black.
END OF VISION
"No this can not happen. Alice when?" I asked her. She just looked at me. And whispered "Soon". That was all it took for me to make the hardest decision of my life. I would leave, we all would. Then he would be safe, she would leave him alone if she thought I didn't care anymore. She could come for me instead. I could live with that, I could not live knowing he died because of me. I jus couldn't. Alice had another vision then but she hid it from me. When she came out of it she spoke "So you have decided then?" she asked. "Yes, it is the only way to protect him from all of this. I can not, I will not put him through anymore danger. This world is not one for him, and you saw just as I did, he was a vampire in that vision and she still got to him. It has to be this way. It will kill me but it has to happen." I cried.
When we got back to the house I took Edward home, he wounds still so fresh. God leaving him was going to be so hard. I don't know how I will endure it. When he got there, I kissed him good night and this time I stayed the night with him. I would give me this one night with me, then that would be it. It would be as if I never existed. We hadn't spent much time together so this would be easy for him humans forget things so easily. He would forget me and move on with his life, while I go on mourning him for all eternity. Once in his room I kissed him with such passion that it could burn your soul, I pulled away to let him breath. I removed my shirt so he would know where this was going and he followed suit. Never had I gotten this far with him, and I would be damned if I would miss my chance again. I would show him my love in every way I could. That night Edward and I made love for the first and last time, once he was asleep I sunk out to cry in the woods. I needed to hunt, I could already hear Emmett's thoughts he was waiting for me, thanks to Alice's orders.
"Em you don't have to come with me, I will be fine." I lied.
"I want to come, you are my sister. Are you going to be okay?" he asked.
"No, I will never be okay. Em there has to be another way. This cant be the only choice I have." I cried.
"We could run. Change him now and we could run. She would never find us. Or we find her first." He smirked. God I love my brother.
"Emmett McCarthy Cullen that is by far the best idea I have ever heard." I boomed.
"Of course it is I thought it." I laughed at that. We snagged us a few mountain lions and went back to the house to explain the plan.
