Chapter 15
Luna had woken me up, it took me by surprise. It was pretty early though Charlie was already gone off to work. I didn't know how I even got inside my truck but all I knew was that Luna was driving. I fully woke up when Luna handed me some coffee and I drank.
"Where are we going?"
"Christmas shopping"
"We should have brought Jacob, Seth or at least Leah"
"Why? If we buy the gifts the rest of the boys or Leah would have found out their presents if one of them would have come and then change into their wolf"
Luna had a good point but it meant that we were easy prey for Victoria. I looked around to see if I would spot her any where. We weren't going to Port Angeles like I thought we were. We were going all the way to Seattle.
It could give Jacob and the others a chance to catch up to us. I just hoped they could track our scent with the light rain coming down.
"What should we get the boys?"
"I don't know" I answered
"I was thinking; let's get them some cakes. I mean anything else they couldn't last with their anger flaring up at the weirdest time"
"How about shirts? They need shirts" I said
I barely n that Luna was a fast driver, a very fast driver. Yet she relaxed back like her driving was normal. I tried doing the same but couldn't. Victoria could be here. Watching, following planning how to make our death painful and miserable.
To hours later we arrived to Seattle. There weren't a lot of people around. I suppose that was what Luna wanted but very bad in our part if Victoria was here. It meant that there weren't going to be any witness.
We parked my truck near some stores. We walked around but nothing seemed to interest Luna. I wanted to go were there more people. Were it would be difficult for Victoria to get us.
"How about we go in this store? They are having discounts"
"Sure"
We walked around the store until Luna bumped with some one and fell to the floor. She held her stomach as she groaned.
"Watch were you're going shrimp!"
"Luna are you okay?"
"Yeah Marie, I swear shopaholics these days"
"Bella! I found you!"
I turned to the girl Luna had bumped into…it was Alice. What was Alice doing in Seattle? Was the rest of the Cullen's here? Was Edward here?
"Alice what are you doing here?"
"I came looking for you! I stopped getting visions of you and when I saw one of you here I came. I came to see if you were okay."
"You know this shrimp Marie?" asked Luna glaring at Alice
"Uh…yeah. She's the sister of that boy" I answered her
"You mean of that good for nothing, ingrate, who's ass I'm gonna kick boy?"
"Yeah"
We walked out of the store forgetting about the gifts we were suppose to buy for the boys and Leah. Luna followed and we sat down inside a coffee house. We ordered coffee.
"Alice this is my cousin Luna. Luna this is my friend Alice"
"Hello Luna" greeted Alice
"Hey…" said Luna not even looking at Alice
Luna turned back to her coffee and drank away. It was nice to see Alice again but I wanted to know if the rest of the Cullen's were here too.
"Alice does…is Edward here?"
"No. He doesn't know I came here" said Alice looking down at her glass of water, she was still trying to fool the people around
I looked up at Alice when she dropped her glass of water. Her eyes were wide. I knew this look, Alice was having a vision.
"Alice…Alice what are you seeing?"
When Alice took a breath after minutes her cell phone went ringing. Alice took it before the second ring and started to speak quickly. Luna looked at her strangely while I tried to act natural which wasn't working.
"Bella we need to go. We need to go save Edward"
"Save Edward from what?" I asked Alice as I got up
"I'll explain as we go, hurry"
"Marie where are you going? You can't go off with strangers" said Luna taking Bella's arm
I turned to look back at Luna. What was I suppose to do? I couldn't leave her here what would she say to the werewolves and Charlie? I turned to look at Alice. Alice turned to look at Luna then at me, she nodded.
"Come on Luna, we need to go"
"Go were" said Luna running with Bella
"We are going to Italy"
Alice, Bella and Luna got on the car parked outside. Alice drove away to the airport. Alice parked the car on the nearest parking she found. We ran inside the airport and Alice went to go get some tickets.
"Why the hell are we going to Italy? What about Jacob and the rest?"
"Jacob Black? What does he have to do anything?" asked Alice
Luna didn't answer Alice; "Marie, Jacob is going to get furious"
Bella didn't answer Luna. She concentrated more on the phone call Alice was making. Luna took the opportunity to text message Raven. Luna didn't know why she did but she felt she had to, after all she was leaving the country.
"Rosalie I need to talk to Carlisle now!...Then tell him to call me as soon as he gets there. What do you know about Edward?"
Alice's mouth opened into a little O of horror and the phone shook in her hand; " Why would you do that Rosalie?
What ever the answer was the Rosalie gave Alice only made her tighten her jaw in anger. Her eyes flashed and narrowed.
"Rosalie she's fine, she's alive! It's too late for you stupid apologizing!"
Alice hung up and turned back to me ignoring Luna's presence.
"Bella, Harry Clearwater had just passed away. Charlie is taking care of the funeral but Edward chose that time to call. Some one picked up and must have misinformed him and now he believes that you're the one who is dead"
"How do you know all of this girl?" asked Luna
"Rosalie told me after she spoke to Edward. She provoked him Bella. Now he's going to Italy"
Italy…A memory made it self present.
Well, I wasn't going to live without you, he'd said as we watched Romeo and Juliet die, here in this very room. But I wasn't sure how to do it…I knew Emmett and Jasper would never help…so I was thinking maybe I would go to Italy and do something to provoke the Volturi…You don't irritate them. Not unless you want to die.
Not unless you want to die.
"No! No!" I almost shrieked; "He can't! He can't do that!"
"He confirmed it as soon as he got misinformed and Rosalie taunted him" said Alice
"But he…he left! He didn't want me anymore! What difference does it make now? He knew I would die some time!" I said
"I don't think he ever planned to outlive you by long" Alice said quietly
"How dare he! I nearly screamed again; "We need to go get him before he goes and kills himself!"
"I don't think it's a good idea for you to go now that I think about it. If we go we might die Bella, your cousin might die" Alice whispered the last thing
"Marie what is going on? Why are we going to Italy?"
"I need to go save Edward, Luna. He's in danger"
"Why the hell would you care Bella? He left you! He deserves to die!" said Luna getting pissed
"No he doesn't Luna! I…I still love him!"
I could see Luna stare at me like I had popped a second head. She looked back and forth from me to Alice. I heard her resign and turned to look at me.
"I won't let you go alone. I'm going along with either of you like it or not!" said Luna
I couldn't help but hug Luna. Yet I didn't want her too come along either. What if she ended up dying because of me? But I needed Luna there along side me…just in case Edward decides he doesn't want me and leaves again.
