NO. This can't be happening to me. It can't. Please, don't let it be true. Seeing the despair in my eyes Billy wheeled over to me, he wrapped me in a comforting hug. Ironic that I'm the healthy one and he is comforting me.

"How long have you known?" I whispered

"About 5 months. I didn't want to tell you. You only recently lost your father. I didn't want to worry you. Please understand".

Numbly I nodded my head while staring at the floor.

"How long?" I asked

Billy sighed. "Edward" he whispered. In a heartbeat Edward was at my side holding onto me. I knew the worst was yet to come.

"Billy, please. I need to know"

"1 week Bella" he murmured

I gasped and was then convulsed in dry sobs. 1 week. 1 lousy week. This was a man I knew my whole life and he would be gone in 1 week.

"Now do you understand Bella? I was born here and I shall die here. This is how it's meant to be. Promise me you will look after Jacob and Vanessa. Poor Ness she is like my daughter you know. Just like you. She and Jacob were made for each other. Make sure you take car of Billy Junior and his wife and Bella and Brad and the baby. Can you do that for an old man Bella?"

I nodded and gently threw myself at Billy. Edward comforted me as Billy gave me a sad smile and wheeled out of the house.

"I think I am a bad luck charm" I whispered to Edward. "Every father figure I have seems to leave me".

"Good thing Carlisles immortal then" Edward murmured trying to lighten the suddenly intense mood. "C'mon love, everyone is waiting".

Edward and I made our way out to everyone. I saw a tear trail down Jacob's cheek as he gave me a sad smile. Knowing that Billy had told me. I remember something Jake told my once 'Life sucks and then you die' Yeah, that went really well with what Edward told me just before my 18th birthday party, 'You humans have it so easy! All you have to do is throw down one tiny vial of plant extract'.

I had stopped him, not letting him even think such a thing. But now…well I could see where he was coming from. Life throws hell at you and now your immortal you can't exactly do much about it. I sighed and stood up in front of everyone.

"Well its obvious you can not stay here so, we need to have you all gone by the end of the we-week". I faltered on the last word.

"I believe Alice…" I threw her a glance and she nodded. "Has set up suitable residences for you all, in Phoenix. We have chosen Phoenix because it is sunny and I believe it is safe from Vampires".

Everyone nodded and I threw Esme a helpless look. I couldn't go on. She nodded swiftly and took over for me.

"I know it's a lot to ask you to pack up your lives. But it is for your safety. So please, start packing immediately"

Everyone headed off in the direction of their houses. Even Billy after throwing me a not so subtle look. This will be one of the worst weeks in my life.
