Chapter 6

Bella's POV

The rain had stopped but the dense clouds still looked like they could burst at any second. We were walking at human pace. There was pure silence lying heavy in the air. It was uncomfortable, I wanted to break it but I couldn't. Edward finally raised his head and spoke to the Doctor.

"I'm sorry… I didn't mean to call her that, it was just out of habit," Edward said obviously waiting for a response from the Doctor. We just entered the forest and we all stopped moving, but the Doctor didn't turn around to face us.

The Doctor didn't respond, so Edward continued to speak "Rosalie reminds you of her, doesn't she?" Edward paused again but the Doctor still didn't reply.

"When I was reading your mind Doctor, I couldn't make out everything, there was so much information. It was like a blur, though I could make out some of your strongest thoughts very clearly. There was so much pain, so much loss… When you saw Jacob and Seth in their werewolf forms you thought of her. Your mind filled with images of her, your adventures together, but you had so much pain and loneliness attached to what seemed like such happy memories… What I just wanted to say is that you did the right thing. I probably would have done the same thing for my Bella. You were selfless, you gave her the best gift you ever could. I bet she's perfectly happy where she is now… I can empathize with you Doctor, I know what it's like to be lonely. I was alone for a long time myself, almost ninety yea-" Edwards speech was then interrupted by the Doctor.

The Doctor swerved round, with pure anger on his face. He stepped toward Edward. This moment resembled when I tried to protect Edward earlier, but this time it was the Doctor practically spitting in Edwards face. "Just because you read my mind you think you have the right to talk to me about this?!"

Edward was stunned at his reaction, he was like a dear caught in head lights. He was shocked, as was I.

"Sorry I…I… didn't mean-" Edward stammered out before the Doctor interrupted him again.

"You have no idea what it has been like for me, so don't even begin to compare yourself to me. I've been alone, the only one of my kind for hundreds of years. You had Carlisle and your brothers and sisters. Now you have a wife and child, something I will never have again! So don't even dare to talk to me about being lonely!" the Doctor said practically yelling in fury.

I couldn't think of anything to say that would help this situation so I let my shield down to speak to Edward through my thoughts "Edward, please drop it. Change the subject."

Edward looked at me with a straight face, he then quickly looked away and tried to apologise again "I'm sorry I didn't mean to-"

The Doctor interrupted again "I know what you meant…" This time though he took a step back and began to straighten himself up while trying to calm himself "Sorry… I shouldn't have reacted that way. I should be the one apologising. You were just trying to be kind, I'm sorry."

There was silence between us again but the Doctor finally broke it with a sigh "You know these creatures we're dealing with? Well they are now more commonly known as 'Weeping Angels'. Its not just because in their 'statue' form they resemble stereotypical angels but they cover their eyes with their hands. But they're not weeping, they can't risk looking at each other. There greatest asset is their greatest curse. They can never be seen. They are the loneliest creatures in the universe. Lonelier then me and lonelier then you ever were…" he paused.

Then a grin stretched across his face and his tone completely changed. It was as if he was trying to lighten the mood or cheer himself up. "Still! We shouldn't stay here and dwell on the past. Come on, we have a Tardis to get back to." With that he turned around a began heading deeper into the forest. His long coat flapping behind him.

We followed behind again as the Doctor stayed in front leading the way. It was as if the Doctor and Edward's conversation never happened. The atmosphere was completely different but I still stayed silent.

I was suddenly alarmed when I heard Edward sigh.

Edward took my left hand with his and placed his right arm around my waist as we walked. He raised my hand up to his lips and it pressed to them, kissing my hand gently yet passionately.

I smiled then he smiled back and he began to whisper "Sorry, to you too. This is not what I had planned for our anniversary at all. But Emmett is now our first priority, do you understand?"

I nodded. "Of course," I replied. "Having Emmett back and safe is more important then our silly little anniversary. What did you have planned anyway?"

I looked up to him. His half smile turned into a slight frown. "I wanted it to be a surprise but since its not going to happen…" he paused. "Alice will be disappointed, after all the trouble she went to organising everything."

He then began to laugh "You should have seen her. You were lucky that we we're keeping this as surprise for you. She was like a one woman battleship, but she insisted on doing everything. I suppose it's my own fault for coming up the idea a week and a half before our anniversary-" I interrupted him.

"You still haven't told me what you were planning to surprise me with" I said as a furrow developed between my eyebrows. I hated surprises.

He smiled "Well… since our first year of marriage didn't go quite so to plan." He paused again but now his voice filled with disappointment. "I thought that it might be nice if we renewed our vows. You know, start afresh."

A huge smile stretched across my face and I leaned up and kissed him on the lips. I then whispered "I love you."

"I love you too" he replied. We were both surprised at my reaction to the idea.

I let out a little giggle. "I suppose there's always next year," I suggested.

"I suppose," he said with a sigh "we can always use our second honeymoon as a family holiday. Bring Jacob and Nessie too. I didn't like the idea of leaving her behind, but Rosalie insisted that you and I should spend some alone together. But technically it won't be a honeymoon anymore so-"

"Where had you planned to go?" I asked interrupting him again.

"To Esme's island," he said with a smug grin. He knew I'd like that surprise and he was right.

"The flight leaves tomorrow evening so if we have Emmett home in time we should definitely go." As soon as he said the name Emmett our smiles dissolved from our faces.

"I'm so worried about Emmett, I hope we get him home soon," I said trying to hold back a sob.

Edward raised his hand from around my waist and started to rub my shoulder in a comforting motion. "I miss him too" he said. He tried to hide it but there was obvious pain in his eyes.

We then in unison both looked forward. The Doctor was about ten steps in head of us. Giving us some privacy I assumed. We still hadn't made it to his ship. Walking at human pace began to annoy me.

My attention suddenly went back to Edward as he began to speak again "Oh! I almost forgot. When we get back to the house we must call everyone and tell them that the ceremony's off."

My eyebrows furrowed again "How many people hid you invite exactly?" I inquired with a slight disapproving tone to my voice.

"Umm not many," he said fearing my reaction. "Just Charlie and Sue, the packs, the Denali's, obviously our family and… Renée and Phil-"

"What!" I stopped him right there "I thought we agreed to keep her as far out of our life as possible, for her safety! What about Renesmee?!?"

We stopped walking and turned to face each other. He gently cupped my face with his hand.

"I'm sorry Bella love, but I see how much it hurts you that you don't see or speak to her anymore… look… I told her that Esme and Carlisle adopted again and if we made sure that they didn't get too close she would been none the wiser. Also Renesmee looks about six years old, It wouldn't make sense for her to but things together. Anyway they don't have to meet each other now as everything's cancelled," he explained trying to calm me.

I responded, my voice full with worry "Where are Mom and Phil, they're not safe here with these 'Weeping Angel' things around."

Edward sighed and placed his hands on my shoulders "I paid for them to stay in the hotel at the west end of town. They should be safe there. I'll send someone to keep an eye on them while they're here. You and I will visit them. Just please, don't worry."

He leaned forward and kissed me on the forehead as he wrapped his arms around me. So many emotions rushed through me. First Emmett, now my mother and Phil could get hurt. I wanted everything to go back to the way it was this morning when I was laying contently in Edwards arms while Renesmee slept peacefully in her room down the hall.

He suddenly broke our embrace as we heard the Doctor yell from about thirty meters away. "Are you two coming or what?!? You're almost there!"

We walked hand in hand in the direction of the Doctor's calls and scent. He must of continued on. Not noticing that Edward and I had stopped.

We came to a small clearing. In its centre the Doctor was stood, leaning against what I assumed to be his ship. It was not what I had expected. Nothing like what you would see in TV or in films.

"That's your Tardis?!" I practically laughed out. "Is just a small blue phone box!"

"Hey! She has feelings too, you know!" he said while caressing its front door.

A huge grin stretched across his face.

"Do you want to come inside?"
