Well my friend has left me for tonight. :( oh well.. and I just got back from training with SJA so I have some spare time to write.. Bow to me! lol

My birthday is on Wednesday, and if you're a Harry Potter fan than you will know that it's the same day as the release of Harry Potter and the order of the phoneix... which is going to be so awesome!!! so I'll be really excited for that lol. 2 days and I'll be 17!!! Anyways, so this is just part of the next chapter.. just something to hold you off for a bit. lol. Part 2 will be up probably tomorrow.

Chapter 3 PART 1

There's always a time when you wish you were somwhere else. No matter who you are, it happens. Well right now is one of those times.

The door slammed behind me, bouncing back open. The sound of laughter and glass clinking came back through the night. It whispered into my ears and I let it overcome me. I sit alone on my front porch, looking up to the stars. I might of been able to name the different constilations if I didn't have so much on my mind. I let out a sigh and lifted my mug of hot chocolate to my mouth. It burned my tongue but I didn't notice. It's not like I could really taste it. I smiled at this.

There was a movement behind me.

"Bella? What are you doing out here?" I turned around to look up into my father's face.

"Just thinking." I murmered, turning my head back to face the street. There was a moment of silence and the shadow of light on the sidewalk in front of me vanished as someone sat down beside me. I turned, expectig it to be Charlie sitting down, but it wasn't.

"I don't understand you." Jacob said, staring into the street.

"Hmmm." I murmered, more to myself.

"Where's the bloodsuckers? Shouldn't you be with them, you are one of them now." I grinned and looked back up at the sky.

"It's what I wanted." I stated.

"I'm sure it was. Well, let's just see how far you get before he breaks your heart again." He turned to get up. "Oh yea, you no longer have one." I didn't say anything else. I just laughed dryly. Jacob went back inside, closing the door behind him. I was now in total silence. Total darkness. I wasn't alone for long. Alice stood in front of me, where she wasn't just a second ago.

"Hello Alice." I whispered.

"Bella." She smiled awkwardly down at me.

"Come to keep me company?"

"I was just wondering if you wanted to go for a hunt with me." She said after a moment. I blinked and then grinned.

"Actually, I might just take you up on that offer." I said, standing up.

"Wait. Bella. I need to ask you something first." She looked rather embarressed when I gave her a quizzical look.

"Go ahead." I urge her when she doesn't continue.

"It's just that." She let out a long breath and then sang it all out at once. I caught every word of it, something I wouldn't of been able to do if I were still human. "You're not planning on canceling your wedding plans.. Are you?" She asked.

"What?"

"Well, I had a vision that-"

"Alice. I would never cancel the wedding. I've just been having trouble seeing myself.Now. Married."

"Everyone does."

"I know."

"Well. I'm not going to try and talk you into anything. But just think before you act upon your thoughts please." She smiled, taking my hand. "So warm. Just don't break his heart just yet."

"I wouldn't break his heart, he would understand."

"He would understand,yes. But deep down inside you know he'll feel like you don't want him. I don't know what I'm talking about!"

"Alice, have you seen something else? Something that might happen if I didn't go through with the wedding." She looked as if she were about to say no. but then she took in a short breath.

"Yes."
