J POV

It's been three years since Bella left, three years and two months to be exact. Three years and my heart is still aching, three years and my mind is still motionless, three years and I still don't know the how I can go on living without her. The only thing that keeps me going is the promise that I made to Bella; that I would find her and we would be together again. I can still remember the last words she said to me before she fell asleep: "Please don't say that Jasper, I need you….I lo" I cringe momentarily, remembering how sad she looked as she pleaded with me. I would give anything to go back in time, to change what happened that day. But of course that isn't possible, so the only thing I have now are the memories that Bella and I made together. Her smile, her touch, her smell, it's all I have now and it's the only thing that keeps me going.

There's a knock on the door but ignore it. Closing my eyes, I hold tightly onto the charm Bella gave me. The knocking doesn't stop and eventually the door is opened. I keep my eyes closed and imagine that Bella is there with me. The bed sags under the pressure of someone sitting down and I sigh. Opening my eyes slowly I can see a very worried looking Carlisle. I know he misses her too but nothing can compare to how I'm feeling right now, how I feel everyday and every second.

"Jasper…..we're all really worried about you," He says something but I can't find the will to actually listen. "You don't hunt, you don't talk to us, you don't even leave Bella's room and when you do, you don't come back for weeks" hearing her name snaps me out of daze. I immediately feel anger.

"Don't you dare speak her name." I seethed. Since Bella left, the only emotion I have been able to show is anger and grief.

"Jasper please, I understand your pain but-"

"You don't understand a damn thing," I spat. I leapt off the bed and crossed the room to stand in the corner. It would be best to stay far away from him; I wouldn't be able to control my rage for long.

"Son we're just concerned about you," I scoffed.

"Concerned? I don't think you know what that is." He sighed and I could feel the waves of "concern" rolling off him. I twisted it back toward him and gave him a taste of what I was feeling. He grabbed onto the bed for support while his eyes were clenched shut in pain. I stopped and waited for him to lift his head up. "Did you feel that Carlisle? That is how I feel everyday…and it's all because of you." It wasn't really but it felt good to blame someone.

"Jasper I had no clue," I laughed bitterly.

"How could you not know that I am feeling this way? You didn't even let me come with you to bury Bella's body! How do you think that made me feel?" I roared.

"Bella asked for it to be that way Jasper," Lies.

"No she didn't mention that in the letter." He shook his head and slid off the bed.

"Yes, you're right but a couple of weeks ago Bella talked to me about. She asked me not to let you come with me because she knew it would bring you too much pain."

"You're lying," I shook my head.

"Jasper it's the truth. She distinctly told me that she knew that if you knew where she was buried, you wouldn't leave the site."

"Of course I wouldn't!" he sighed again.

"She didn't want that Jasper. Bella has a job to do and if you were there, you would only be interfering."

"But I love her," I pathetically whispered.

"Yes and she loved you too but would you rather her sleep forever while you stand guard on her burial ground?"

"I wouldn't be keeping guard." I hissed.

"Jasper, you know as well as I do that you would scare off any vampires who were seeking Bella's help." I thought about it for a second. "Jasper you have to understand that. Bella has a purpose and she's already helped you, but now you have to help yourself and live the life she would've wanted for you."

….don't give up Jasper, I've always believed in you and I always will.

"How can I live without her Carlisle?" he puts his hand on the shoulder and pulls me into a hug.

"Sometimes you just have to move on no matter how hard it hurts." Move on? I pull away from him and slump back against the wall.

"You still don't get it." I didn't want to hear any of his cliché bullshit anymore

"Jasper, I think it's you who doesn't "get it." Bella is gone! And when she is awakened she will help that vampire because that is what she was destined to do. I didn't want to say this but I think it's the only way you'll be able to snap out of this phase."

"What is it?"

"Bella may have loved you she is not destined to be with you." Then reality set in. "She wants the man who will break her curse Jasper." The curse…how could I have forgotten her curse. No matter what I do, Bella will never be mine.

"Leave," My voice was dull; lacking any emotion.

"Jasper…"

"Thank you for your concern Carlisle but I would very much like to be alone right now." He sighed then walked out the room.

Sliding down to the ground, I brought Bella's charm up to my lips and closed my eyes. I would not break my promise to Bella, even if she finds her true, I will always be there for her. Opening my eyes I grab the notebook underneath the bed. I keep track of all the places that I have checked for Bella's heartbeat. I still have a long way to go but I will never ever stop looking for her. I jump out the open window and begin my long journey once again.

BPOV

"What the hell Damien!" he turned his back and sat on the ground, leaving me with even more questions than I had before.

Okay now I was sure that I could not contain the angry that was raging through me. I tried to be nice to Damien but being nice wasn't working especially with him sending mixed messages. I stomped over to him and violently grabbed him by the shoulders; pulling him up then turning him to face me. He looked indifferent and it only enraged me more.

"You better start speaking now!" He sighed.

"Everything I said was a lie, I'm sorry," again it sounded rehearsed.

"You Damien, are you very bad liar," I sneered while releasing his shoulders.

"Does it matter?" he asked. I sighed and ran a hand through my tousled hair.

"It matters to me…you matter to me." It was true, something about Damien just screamed SAVE ME!

"Why?" His eyes were soft and for a second I forgot that I was angry.

"Because I want to help you…but I can't if you won't be honest with me," I backed away and shook his head.

"It's not that I won't but I can't." I bit my lip and considered this for a while.

"Okay…everyone is entitled to their own secrets but not if it's putting someone's life at risk."

"Everything is fine." He lied.

"Damien." I pleaded.

"This is my secret Bella, I won't let it eat you up alive too," I frowned.

"Maybe you will feel better once you tell me about it." His crimson red eyes flashed up to mine.

"I can't Bella…please can't we talk about something else?" I reluctantly nodded my head.

"Come on, let's go somewhere else." He looked scared.

"I don't think we're allowed to leave Bella," I laughed.

"I'm the boss remember?" I stretched my hand out and waited for him to take it. "Just try Damien."

"I can't okay…I don't want to hurt you." I bit my lip.

"Fine, then just follow closely behind me. Understood?"

"Yea I got you," I rolled my eyes and opened the door.

When I opened the doors, I was surprised to not see Demetri leaning against the stone columns smirking. I shook my head while remembering his strange behavior this morning. Yes, we were friends now, but there is something about him that makes it hard to trust him completely. I turned my head to make sure that Damien was following me. I smiled when I saw him walking stiffly.

"Just be calm Damien, don't let your thirst consume you." He didn't say anything but I continued to walk anyway. We got to the end of the hall where a long stairway led down. I turned to Damien grinning.

"In the mood for exploring?" he frowned.

"Not really,"

"Great, let's go." I grabbed his hand, not caring about how he struggled under my hold.

We continued to walk but stopped half way when we noticed that we had company. I turned around and pulled Damien beside me. Demetri smiled quickly.

"Bella." He nodded his head.

"Hello Demetri," I said even though being so close made me uneasy.

"Where are you off to?" he asked courteously.

"Aren't you going to say hi to Damien?" He looked amused.

"Hmm I was under the assumption that he and I were not friends."

"You don't have to be friends to be civil." He nodded his head.

"Well I guess you're right then Bella. Damien." He glared at him.

"I don't care I'm not talking to him," Damien pouted. I rolled my eyes and continued to walk down the stairs.

"You never like answering questions do you?" He laughed a bit.

"What do you mean?" he laughed again.

"You are an interesting creature Bella," Damien stopped.

"She's not some kind of animal you know," he sighed angrily.

"If you plan on talking to me that way, I would recommend you stop now." He stated calmly.

"Or else what," Damien said; his confidence shaking as his voice broke.

"Or else I won't be so civil. I'll let your imagination think of the rest. Bella," he nodded before disappearing.

"Okay you two have to stop that." I said releasing his hand.

"I'm sorry Bella it's just…I don't know." We reached the bottom of the stairwell.

"Look, I'm not saying that you have to be his friend, because honestly I could care less about that but at least have respect."

"Respect?" he scoffed.

"Yes," I said while pushing open doors that led to another hallway. "He doesn't act as…as violent as you do."

"Oh so you're siding with him,"

"I'm not siding with anyone Damien." I rolled my eyes.

"It sounds like you are…I think you like him," I stopped in the middle of the hall and turned so that we were face to face.

"Don't you ever, say something like that." I hissed. I silently prayed to myself that something like that would never happen; I could never give up my love for Jasper.

"Whoa, I'm sorry Bella," he shrank back.

"I won't tolerate you being childish Damien." I turned back away and kept on walking down the hall. "Now like I was saying, can you at least try to play nice with Demetri?"

"Why should I? He treats me like crap." I sighed and grabbed onto his hand.

"You both treat each other badly but this is his house Damien and we must learn to respect him," he rolled his eyes.

"He's so creepy Bella; don't tell me you haven't noticed that too." My mind flickered back to the other day where Demetri practically cornered me against a wall. The uncomfortable tight feeling in my stomach returned just by the thoughts of him.

"That's not a very nice thing to say Damien," I said even though the corners of my mouth hinted a small smile.

"Hey I see that smile," he laughed and I shushed him.

"I'm serious Damien." I scolded.

"Okay, okay I'll try." We stopped at another massive door. "Maybe we should go back," He looks scared and I feel it too. I pull him so we can turn around me and start the other way.

"Bella you wouldn't be leaving so soon now would you?" I sigh heavily.

"Actually yes I am," I say as nicely as I can.

"Let me help you reconsider that." In a second he was facing me.

"Demetri, we're very busy." He smirks.

"Yes I can see that," he looks behind me and grins at Damien. "However Aro would very much like to speak to you" I nod my head and drag Damien behind me as I follow Demetri.

"Ah Isabella," I shudder; hating the way he says it.

"Hello Aro, how was your night." He smiles.

"Splendid and yours? I hope everything was too your liking. I think back to the massive bed, the antique designing, and the huge arms chairs.

"Yes, thank you so much for your hospitality." He laughs silently to himself.

"I should be thanking you Bella, you have given us so much," I narrow my eyes. "Now how is the training going?"

"Very well," I said.

"Good, good…" His milky red eyes bore into me; I had to look down to avoid his glare.

"Well we should get going, there's still so much we have to do," He smiled.

"But Isabella you just got here," I could hear a small laugh from the corner.

"Master if I may say so, Bella is very much into her work." Demetri appeared at my side with his trademark smirk.

"Yes, I can sense that." He smiled. "However I will be sure to make this…very quick," I furrowed my brows. "You see Isabella; I have an extraordinary gift as well." He said arrogantly. I had to fight the urge to roll my eyes. "With just a touch, I am capable of hearing every thought a person has ever had."

"That is an extraordinary gift indeed," I said.

"Yes, yes it is." I sighed. "Oh, I'm not boring you, am I Isabella?"

"Oh not at all, it is just that I take my time very seriously." He clapped his hands together.

"And I admire that about you Isabella, it is….very, interesting." He seemed to float out of his chair and over to me. "I would very much like to read you Isabella." I cringed.

Every secret, every lie, every touch would be his to know. I took one step back and closed my eyes. He would see everything about my life and I wasn't sure that I was quite comfortable with that. I snapped my eyes open to see his onion colored face staring back at me.

"I hope that you can understand that I am not quite comfortable with that." I could feel Damien's hand squeeze mine. I looked back at him; he was pleading with his eyes..

"Hmm…well I hope that you can understand Bella that I do not care to ask permission." I shook my head.

"This is my decision Aro; I do not wish to let you see into my head." I said as calmly as I could.

"Master if I may?" Demetri interjected.

"You may," Aro flitted back to his chair and watched in almost amusement.

Demetri turned to me; his smirk unyielding. I crossed both arms against my chest and waited for his speech about how Aro had to right to steal my memories. And as reading my mind Demetri shook his head and laughed.

"Bella may I tell you a story?" he asked.

"Look," I stepped away from his view and into the line of sight of Aro. "I do not wish to be disrespectful and I apologize if my comment came off as that. However I cannot allow you to use your gift on me Aro." Demetri shook his head again.

"Bella, just remember what I told you before. Things will just be easier for you if you accept what is going on."

"What is going on?" I demanded.

"You will not be harmed Isabella by my touch." I was not worried about it hurting but more about having to share my life…my curse with Aro.

"I know that," I whispered.

"Then there should be no reason for your hesitation." He was standing behind me now. "I have used my gift on everyone in this room….and many others."

"Why?" I asked while turning to him.

"Oh that is a very easy question to answer." He smiled. "Because I can….Everything that happens here is because I willed it to happen. Nothing happens without my knowing." Every word he said was stitched with incense.

"So you are the leader," his face was expressionless.

"I am so glad that you are beginning to understand this Isabella." He smiled as he grabbed my hand. He closed his eyes and took in a shaky breathe as he rubbed his icy hands over mine. "Hmmm….very interesting." He said.

I stood there trying to not to pull my hand away no matter how much I wanted to do so. I closed my eyes and thought about how my life would now be a public knowledge; I know he would discuss what he saw. He released my hand and the same disturbing smile grew on his lips.

"Thank you Bella," he said while stepping away. I pulled my hand to my chest and rubbed the warmth back into it.

"I'm not sure I should say you're welcome." He laughed.

"You have no need to." He said while sitting down.

"May I leave now?" I said between clenched teeth.

"You may" he said with a wave of his hand. I pivoted and pulled Damien with me as I stomped away.

When we were far enough to not be heard, I let go of Damien's hand and punched into the wall as hard as I could. I could hear the deafening crack of the wall crumbling from my hit but I didn't care; I pounded into it over and over again until my hand began to pulsate.

"How could he do that? How could he just steal my memories when I said no?" Damien was standing in the corner as he shook his head.

"I told you Bella, they don't care," I sighed and pulled my hand to my chest again.

"Let's go to the room," it was no longer my room, for I no longer desired to stay here.

We walked back to the room in silence but I knew that Damien was itching to say something. I knew he was going to tell me something cryptic about the Volturi. We walked into the room and I immediately went to the bed. Damien joined me; he kept his eyes locked on mine until I asked what was wrong.

"Is your hand okay?" he asked sympathetically. I looked down at my hand; it had completely healed while were walking but I could still feel a small throb.

"It's fine." He sighed.

"I need to tell you something." I sat up and leaned against the headboard.

"Well I'm not sure that I want to hear what you have to say right now." I said while closing my eyes.

"Bella please, it's important." I scoffed.

"Just like everything else you have told me? Damien I don't have time to decode your messages anymore." I said exasperated.

"I couldn't help that Bella…but now I can tell you the truth….they didn't say I couldn't talk about this."

"Who?"

"The Volturi." I sighed. I waved him along with my hand. "I remember now…I remember who did this to me." I snapped my eyes open.

"Who was it?" before he could answer, the door to the room was opened.

"I hope I'm not interrupting." Demetri said while walking in.

"Actually you are," I hissed. "I would like it if you were to leave." He laughed.

"I'm not sure you know what you want Bella, you are quite the tease." I shot off the bed and stood in front of him.

"You know nothing about me." He put both hands on either sides of my face.

"Oh but I think I do." He said before leaning down towards my face. I turned my face quickly so that his lips grazed my cheek. "Aren't you just a little curious?" he asked as I pushed him away from me.

"Don't ever touch me ever again." He laughed deeply.

"Let's not over exaggerate things Bella, we both know you would be happy if I were the one to break your curse."

I clenched both fists before sending one into Demetri's face. I smirked when I hear a satisfying crack. He stumbled back a bit from the force but then stood straight as his rearranged his nose. He laughed and stepped toward me.

"I warned you Bella. It's such a shame that this couldn't have ended differently. However I cannot say that I'm really disappointed, I plan on having fun with you with you either way." He ran a hand through my hair before disappearing out the door.

I stood there stupefied; Aro had told everyone what he saw. I closed my eyes and let a single tear fall; not only was I confused but I was scared. If what Demetri said is true then I have more than just my memories to be worried about.

"It was Demetri wasn't it," I said without turning back to him.

"Yes,"

"We need to leave," I said while turning.

"Bella, we can't."

"Of course we can, they can't stop us." He shook his head.

"No, they can't, but Demetri can," I stopped.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you remember what his gift is?"

"Tracking," I closed my eyes.

"We're stuck here Bella and from Demetri said, it looks like their plan for you is in motion.

"Their plan?" Before I could register what he told me, everything around me went black. "Damien, what are you doing?" I screamed.

"It isn't me Bella," I stretched my hand out and walked over to him; stumbling over a few things on the way.

"What's going on?" I grabbed onto Damien,

"I'm so sorry Bella," he whispered. "I'm so sorry,"

That was the last thing that I heard before all my senses were cut. I took that moment to say goodbye to Jasper before the Volturi ended my existence….I knew that they were going to kill me.

OMG so Bella is going to die? Or at least she thinks so. I really don't like Demetri anymore after this chapter! Tell me what you think and what you think is going to happen next. Please please please review! Next ch: Jasper finds out that someone has already awakened Bella, now he has to find out who.
