Harry and Bella lay on her bed, facing each other talking about everything that had happened in the last few months since Bella had left everything that wasn't said in phone calls or emails as they were the types of things that should have been said face to face.
"What happened that had one of the Cullen's coming here to check up on me." Bella demanded.
"Alice had gotten a vision of you cliff jumping and thought that you were out to try and kill yourself and Emmett offered to check up on it and found out that it was actually me doing the cliff jumping but it didn't stop Rosalie letting Edward know about it..."
"So thinking that I was dead Edward headed for the Volturi." Bella finished off with a sigh.
"Emmett was really surprised about seeing me." Harry laughed.
Bella blushed a little bit, "I never told them about you, you know."
Harry gave her a small smile, "It's okay Bells." He assured her, "As long as I knew everything about them then it was all good."
Bella laughed, "Love you Harry."
"Love you too Bells. Now let's get away from here and go and see Jay." Harry said pushing himself up and from the bed.
Bella grimaced, "Jacob and I didn't part on the best of terms Harry."
"Well then what better way than to go there now and sort everything out. Trust me Bells, everything will be fine and the giant oaf will forgive you." Harry said pulling his bigger sibling from the bed, though he couldn't really pull her up without a little help on her end, Bella let him pulled her behind him and down the stairs, "We're off to see Jacob daddy." Harry called last second before the door was slamming it closed behind him.
"Harry, slow down." Bella laughed coming to a stop at her truck.
"But Bella." Harry whined
"Harry." Bella mimicked, "Now we need to go back into the house and grab our coats and then we can leave." She said being the more sensible of the two even though she was younger.
Harry let out a heavy annoyed sigh and went back to the house, opened the door and reached for their jackets that weren't hanging there. Hearing a chuckle Harry looked over to see Charlie holding on to the door with both jackets in hand and a large smile across his face, Harry blushed and took the jackets being held out to him, "Thanks daddy."
"Have a good time at Jacob's." He said closing the door on his daughter and son to enjoy cleaning his guns and chugging down a couple of beers.
"Come on Harry, time's a wasting." Bella called through the window of the truck.
Rolling his eyes he moved off to the truck and threw Bella's jacket to her and slammed the door behind him, "I hate you." He pouted.
"Oh hey, why did you jump off of the cliff in the first place?"
"Sam was picking on me again." Harry responded, "He said I was too much of a wimp to jump off of the cliff like they do so I decided to prove him wrong and I jumped."
"And it's a good thing that Jacob was there to pull you out of the water." Bella mused, "You're not like them Harry, neither am I, we would have both been swept away out to sea or into the rocks and crushed."
Harry rolled his eyes, "I know Bells, but it didn't stop me from proving Sam Bloody Uley wrong." He sniffed, turning his nose into the air, with an all important air to him.
Bella gave a little laugh, "I probably would have done the exact same thing just to prove him wrong. That Sam Uley get's my goat."
"Maybe I should sic Emmett on him." Harry cackled, tapping his fingers together like Mr. Burns.
Bella gave a very unlady like snort, "I would like to see that. But because of the pact between them and the wolves I doubt that it would happen."
"We could always get them to do it for fun."
"And how would you do that Harry Swan?" Bella asked looking at him briefly and saw a very cunning look on his face; a look she had seen in the past and knew that what ever it was he was thinking of wouldn't fail and Harry turned on her with his all powerful puppy dog eyes, "Okay, I see what you're eluding to but it won't happen, I'd rather not see it happen thank you very much."
"Spoil sport." He huffed, sinking into his chair as they pulled put to Jacob's.
"Hey there kids." Billy called from where he was sitting on his veranda having a beer.
"Hey Billy." Bella responded with a smile and a small wave.
Harry shuffled a little behind Bella as they moved to the house, trying not to get too much of Billy's attention and getting yelled at by the man for taking his son across the pond. "I'm not angry at you son." Billy spoke up snapping Harry out of his thoughts.
Harry blushed, "I'm sorry Billy for taking Jacob to England with me." He said toeing the dirt at his feet.
Billy laughed, "It's alright Harry, at least you had someone with you when you went over and who better than my Jacob to protect little old you."
"I don't need protecting." Harry protested.
"The boy's are out at Sam's if you want to see Jacob. He and the boys are having a chat about your time away in Europe." Billy informed them.
"And you should go see dad, he's home drinking alone cleaning his guns." Bella said getting back in the truck and headed further down the road toward Sam's place.
Alice giggled as she came out of her vision and only laughed harder and the ill look on Edward's face from what it was she was seeing, "Everything will be fine Edward, I have looked at all possible outcomes of it for Rosalie and that is the best one yet." She told him.
"What are you talking about?" Emmett questioned, pausing his game.
"Rosalie has found someone over in Milan." Edward responded getting everyone's attention, "But it's who it is that is the real kicker."
"Who is it? From the way that you are talking it must be someone that we know." Esme giggled, "Please tell us who it is."
"Marcus of the Volturi." Edward said with a carefully blank face as he looked to his father.
If she could have Esme would have paled heavily and passed out from the shock and Carlisle was stunned at the announcement at finding out that Rosalie may yet become mated, and to Marcus, the one claimed Saint that drove off the vampires.
"Marcus is the calmer of the brothers. And if he had left the walls of the Volterra than perhaps what ever was holding him there is slowly weakening and maybe being with Rosalie will give us some favour." Carlisle responded thoughtfully.
"Do you think that it could be in our favour? Oh perhaps it could be in theirs." Jasper spoke up.
"What do you mean?"
"Do you really think that Marcus will give up his life and his seat as one of three at the Volturi for a life like ours? Or would he woo Rosalie back to Volterra as the new ruling queen along side Aro's and Caius's wives."
This had them all stumped, even the future seeing Alice who had not seen anything of the sort concerning them coming home or going to Volterra but anything could happen, she just didn't know until someone's mind was made up and they had chosen.
"Rosie will come home. Family is everything to her and you guys know that. She WILL come back home." Emmett said with conviction, knowing a little more about the woman that was his 'mate' on a personal level than the others, "And I'll be the first to welcome the one she claims as her new mate." He said and left the others to think about what he had said.
"Emmett's right, Rosalie will come home." Edward agreed.
"Then we will welcome Marcus into our family. But we will not persuade him from human blood should they stay with us for a time." Carlisle agreed.
"Do you think his brothers will let it happen?" Esme asked.
"For a time, yes."
