By Myself – Chapter 20 – The Wedding Present

Mia POV

I was jumping up and down in my seat as the plane we were heading for a landing at Seattle International Airport. Two vampires were flying and Heidi was our 'baby sitter' for the trip. She was the one who was going to make sure we got back on the plane. She was giving us till twilight the next day so we could have a day to spend with them. We were landing in the early morning and if we ran fast enough we could we make it by mid morning. Heidi wouldn't stop messing with my hair. We had finally agreed to keep it in two braids wrapped around into a bun in the back. I was in simple jeans and a light blue shirt. Heidi wouldn't stop fussing over Peter. He finally put his foot down by cutting off his scent and hiding in the un-needed bathroom.

"Do you have everything?" Heidi asked. I looked through the duffel bag that had my dress bag and Peters little nice clothes bag. Also hair and make up for me with some spare clothes for both of us. And last but not least Peters stilts. They added a good foot to his height that helped our little surprise. We were going to surprise them. I hope they don't kill us.

"I think we are fine. What are you going to do while we are here?" I asked. She shrugged.

"Maybe there are some good places to party in Seattle around this time of year. You know have some fun."

"Well good luck with that."

"We are here. The pilot said. "Seattle, Washington."

"Come on let's go!" Peter was pulling at my arm.

"Oi where were you hiding?" Heidi asked. I grabbed his arm.

"Gotta Go!" I said and ran out of the plane with Peter and carrying the bag. We ran out of the city towards Forks.

"Are you going to see Jake?" Peter asked me.

"We shall see. I don't think I would be able to say good bye when the time came."

"Then don't." I simply rolled my eyes. We did say anything until we got to Forks and closer to the Cullen's house.

"Alright you time to put the stilts on," I stopped dropping the bag on the floor. I helped strap one on while he did the other.

"What's the point of this?" he asked.

"You wanted to do it little bro," I said helping him to his feet. "You are still shorter than me." He was a head shorter than me.

"Shut it. Don't make fun of me because I am short."

"Sorry squirt." I tossed his new longer cloak at him. "Looks like the foggy weather is on our side today." I strapped on my cloak and zipped up the bag. "We should just be outside Edwards mind hearing range so I want you to think of just walking." He put his hood on that covered nearly his entire face.

"I can't see," he complained.

"Get over it. Come on." Now was the final stretch toward the house.

Bella POV

It was the day before the wedding and the Volturi representatives were coming in a matter of minutes. I paced in me and Edwards room. I moved in a few weeks ago to get out of Mike and Teri's house. They were moving in with our friends from Denali. Now that it was just them. I wondered if we were going to be moving soon. But that can wait until after the wedding. I looked out on the dreary morning. There was thick fog covering everything. Like a bad horror movie.

"They are coming! Two minutes!" Alice said quite chipper. I don't see why she was so happy about them coming. But I have to put on a smile and grin and bear it.

"Love will you please tell me what you're thinking?" I looked and the doorway and Edward was leaning against the door.

"How much I hate the Volturi," I said with venom. "I really don't want them here." He walked over to me and held me in his arms rubbing my back in calming circles.

"None of us do but it is something somewhat mandatory. We better go greet them," he grabbed my hand and dragged me down the stairs to the front yard. In the thick fog you could see two hooded figures walking towards us. One was shorter than the other by a small amount. They were carrying a small bag. Their hooded capes covered their faces hiding who they were. They stopped a few feet away from us.

"Hello," Carlisle said. "You must be from the Volturi." The smaller one nodded but neither of them said anything. "Can you identify yourself?" The taller one began walking toward me. I took a small step back. "I asked to identify yourself," Carlisle said a little stronger. But still the hooded figure kept walking towards me. Then the figure was only one foot away from me. They lifted their hands to their hood and began to pull it down. I think there ws a collective gasp of shock.

"Mia?" I asked. She was exactly the same her golden eyes were slightly dark but she seemed perfectly well not dead.

"No it's the tooth fairy. Come here," She attacked me into a bear hug. I didn't know what to think either a – this was happening or b – I was mentally insane.

"Your alive?" I asked. She let go and walked back over to the other hooded figure and began to untie some things toward the bottom of their feet and lifted the person off stilts and knocked off their hood. It was Peter.

"Not just me." Everyone just stared mouth open like me.

"Looks like we have a lot of explaining to do don't we sis?" Peter finally talked.

"Apparently," she replied. Carlisle approached them slowly and embraced both of them.

"Now would you care to explain how you are here?" he asked. They nodded and she put Peter down as he got their bag.

"You packed light," Alice commented.

"We have to leave by twilight the day after or we will have half the Volturi chasing us down. That something else we are going to have to explain."

"Inside?" Esme recommended. We all nodded and headed inside. They seemed somewhat awkward walking into the house. "Are you two alright?" Esme asked.

"Yea, we just haven't been somewhere where people are looking for excuse either to longer your sentence or get you killed. This feels warmer," Mia admitted. When we all sat down in our living room Mia began their story. "Aro didn't want to kill us he said our abilities interested him. He offered us freedom but we have to serve under the Volturi Guard for Three hundred years. Not bad compared to becoming ripped up ashes."

"So then how are you here?" I asked. She opened the bag and pulled out the invitation.

"The 'masters'," she hissed the word with hatred. "Thought le to get outyou might like seeing us more than an ordinary wedding present."

"What do you do for the Volturi?" Edward asked.

"It is so boring all we do is collect food and protect the halls but we always have a baby sitter and then we locked in this room at ten until morning," Peter explained.

"The seclusion room," Carlisle said. "They used to put newborns in there it is nearly impossible to break out of."

"Then why didn't you contact us?" I asked. They both looked down.

"They didn't us contacting anyone," Peter said.

"So not even Teri and Mike know you're here?" Alice asked they both shook their heads.

"We came straight here in case someone was following us."

"Well we are going to fix that," Alice got up and gave them a small hug. "I'll be right back," she said and brought jasper into the kitchen.

"Why do I feel that the fortune cookie knew about this?" Mia sighed.

"She probably did," everyone said in unison.

"Nice," Mia added.

"I think you and Bella deserve some girl time," Edward suggested. Everyone got up and left the room Edward gave me quick kiss and left taking Peter with them. His eyes were black. Mia moved next to me crossing her legs and faced me.

"Now tell me everything," she insisted. "And leave nothing out." I laughed at her eagerness to know everything. I realized how much I missed her. This was going to be hard to say good bye. But we had today whatever time during the wedding and whatever time we had the following the day. Maybe that is why Alice scheduled our honeymoon until two days after the actual wedding. I began giving her the details on every little bit of my life.

Next the wedding =D Now please review!!
