Chapter 4 BPOV

Everyone gasped as they realized who I was. I knew if I were capable of blush, I would be red as a cherry tomato... or in this case my eyes. I did my pest to shove my nerves down and gave everyone a small smile. The first one to recover was Carlisle.

"Bella? Is that you? You look wonderful... and you're... I mean you have... what I mean to say is..."

"What he means to say is, nice eyes!" Emmett screamed, earning a smack in the head from everyone in the room... but me. I nervously backed behind Alice.

Carlisle shot Emmett a quick warning glance before saying, "as my ever sensitive son was saying, it is so wonderful to see you, Bella".

Emmett ran forward and gave me a bear hug. "I'm sorry sis. You know I love you, sis". I smiled, missing being hugged. "I know," I said, smiling.

Emmett sat me down and before I knew it, I was recieving a motherly hug from Esme. "We have missed you, terribly," she said smiling. Carlisle and Rosalie had given me a hug.

"Why don't we all go into the living room. It appears we have a lot to talk about," Carlisle said.

I nodded in agreement. Everyone followed Carlisle into the the living room. I nervously followed behind. I sat down one of the sofas with Esme and Alice. Emmett, Rosalie and Carlisle sat on the sofa across from us.

"So, Bella. Tell us... Because, I know everyone is wondering... how were you turned? We all left..."Carlisle asked, curiously. I nodded and said, "I figured you would all be curious. When you left, I was crushed. I couldn't walk or talk I was so heart broken. That was when Victoria found me. She wanted regenge for Edward killing James, so she figured she would kill me, you know, mate for a mate. but then, she found me and realized she could just sentence me to eternity alone. So, she stayed to watch me wither in pain with the intention of leaving before I woke... she wasn't exactly intending on me waking up an entire twelve hours early. So... Victoria is not a threat to anyone anymore".

The room was quiet. "Wait, if you were by yourself, how did you manage to control yourself," Carlisle asked, curiously.

"Well... um... I didn't... The volturi had to step in after a while... I got a bit out of hand being by myself," I explained slowly. Gasps came from everyone in the room.

"Then how are you alive? Usually when a newborn is out of hand, it's instant death," Carlisle asked, everyone in the room nodding.

"Well, they were going to kill me but they agreed that my gift was far too valuable to be destroyed. I am a mental shield," I explained. "So, they made me a deal. I stay with them until they were sure I was controlled enough to be released on the world again," I said.

After a long time of awkward silence, I decided to break the ice.

"What's new here?" I asked, smiling.

"To be honest, everyone is miserable since we left you. Things haven't been the same. Edward is broken! He lied to you, Bella! He still loves you and he always will. When he left, he left with the intention of giving you a normal, human life," Alice screamed.

I sort have figured that out. First, he is willing to risk his life for me and then all of a sudden, that kind of love disappears. It's just not possible.

I just nodded because hearing it out loud, having my theory confirmed was enough to make my dead heart feel like it was beating.

After a few hours of talking, Alice and Emmett somehow managed to talk me into staying with them for a while.

But, then, Alice had a vision and she said something that made me thrilled and terrified at the same time.

"Edward and Jasper will be home if twenty seconds!"

Sorry this took so long. I have been quite busy. Next chapter will be Edward and Jasper's point of view.
