A/N: Whoops!! Been a while since I've updated; Sorry, I was getting back into school mode…

Princess Isabella's POV

I was on my way downstairs, rushing, maybe a little too fast for Alice. I slowed down a bit, once I realized how distressed she looked.

"I'm sorry Alice. I shouldn't be so hasty…I'm just mad." I lied; I was really upset, and hurt and broken. But Alice wouldn't know that. I stopped, really taking a good look at her. "Are you okay?" I asked apologetically. She merely nodded in response.

"Busy day." she said with dry humor. Whether or not it was intended I was not sure, so I just nodded and sighed. How was this going to work? I knew what I wanted to happen, but would Edward be able to…hear me? Would he be able to do what I asked? Would he be able to bring Jasper? For Alice? She deserved that much. At least she could be happy, while my heart was betrayed and breaking. At least she could have a few moments of joy while I spoke to Edward…

Edward; How could he lie to me? To me!? I loved him, he loved me and love meant trust, right? Didn't he trust me? But more importantly, why did he lie to me? What was he keeping from me that was so important he had to lie? All of the anger I had felt previous to this moment, slowly receded. I realized Edward rarely lied; He only lied when it was something crucial, something that needed to be done no matter how much it hurt. There had to be a reason for it; There just had to be…

And I needed to know why. Now. Nothing seemed to make sense anymore…what else had Edward lied about?

"Bella, I think it's time we talk." I hadn't noticed with Jacob had entered the hall. He stood away from me, probably sensing that I wanted my space; Glad he finally caught on. But after last night, I had actually kind of…warmed up to him. A little. Not much, but a little. I wasn't as furious as I was yesterday night, maybe it was because I just needed to yell at him. I guess I had been holding it in for so long, it was a relief to get it out. I could be a tad more pleasant to him…but not before I was completely done yelling. But I couldn't do it now.

"Jake, I'd love to yell at you about what a jerk you are-" I said turning towards him with a fake smile. "But I'm in the middle of something at the moment, so if you don't mind-" I turned, taking Alice's arm and towing her with me, but Jake grabbed me; Lightly, but I was still angry.

"Bella, this is important. I'm done lying to you. I have to-"

"I already know every lie you've ever told me, Jake. And it hurts, and I'm angry and I know we have to talk about it, but right now, I have something to take care of." I tore my arm away swiftly, and kept walking, but trying to be slow, for Alice's sake.

"You- you know?" he asked nervously. He was following us, I could hear him breathing close behind me. I rolled my eyes and glanced at him quickly, but long enough to see him send a glare Alice's way.

"She didn't tell me anything; I found out for myself. Not that I wouldn't eventually…" I murmured, cringing at the memory. When I had found out…sitting on Edward's grave. When he had lied to me, for a reason I had yet to discover.

"Bella, I have to talk to you now." He swiftly stepped in front of Alice and I, putting his hands on my shoulders. I shook them off harshly. "Please. It's killing me. Even if you know, you deserve to know why. I want you to hear it from me." he sounded sincere and apologetic. He looked vulnerable…he looked like my Jake. I sighed heavily, remembering when he had been my Jake, and he had been my best friend. He still could be my best friend…if I could forgive him. And I was pretty sure I could. And maybe what he told me could give me a few clues to what Edward was going to tell me, once I was with him.

"Fine." I said. "But it had to be quick, what I need to do…is important." I stressed. Jake smiled in relief and nodded. "Alice, meet me in the meadow in half an hour." I told her. She looked a bit skeptical, but nodded.

"Okay Bella. But…what's the-" I stopped her;

"I don't want to ruin it." I smiled and turned to Jake. "Let's get this over with." He dragged me the other direction, away from Alice. "See you Alice. Thirty minutes!" I called over my shoulder and watched as she nodded and walked toward the meadow.

In five minutes we were upstairs, in Jacob's room; Now he only had twenty five minutes. Ha!

"Bella-" he began pacing a few times before finally sitting down. He patted the bed, next to him, beckoning for me to sit and I reluctantly sat next to him, but far enough to where I could stand it.

"Jacob." I said matching his tone.

"I don't know how to tell you this…it's going to sound terrible either way I guess, so here it goes." He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Edward is dead."

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, but didn't open them when I said "I know." I murmured. I still didn't look at him, because I knew that if I did, I'd start yelling and crying. I wasn't in the mood for that now.

"I know. I'm so sorry." Jacob whispered.

"Why didn't you tell me?" A few tears rolled softly down my cheeks as I spoke, my voice shaky. But I wasn't crying. This is old news to me.

"I thought you'd be mad at me." he hung his head down in shame. Shame he well deserved.

"I am. How could you not tell me?" my eyes flew open now, tears running more frequently. I didn't bother to brush them away.

"I was going to tell you eventually. But I was in shock from what I had done I guess…I didn't want to deal with the consequences." he said honestly.

"That's no excuse." I said quickly. "How- wait…" I was caught off guard, but had realized the meaning behind his words. "What do you mean 'what I had done'? What did you do?" my breathing sped up, my heart beat increased a million times over.

"Bella. Don't make me say it; You said you knew." he groaned and hid his face in his hands. He obviously didn't realized the hysterical tone to my voice. "You know I executed Edward."
