"Alice!" I shouted as I ran after her. I found her at the bottom of the stairs, just about to run out the door.
"Alice." I said sternly, grabbing her arm.
She turned, her car keys in her hand and her coat over her arm, "Edward, let go of me."
"You know that's not going to happen Alice..." I said firmly.
She took a deep breath, "I'm only trying to help you Edward." She said.
I tried to read her thoughts but she was currently singing 'Girls just wanna have fun', so that I couldn't see her plan.
"Alice, I don't need help..."
Yes. You. Do!" she shouted.
I looked at the ground, "Alice, if you care about me at all, then you'll do what I want for change."
She shook her head, her eyes looking like they would be holding tears if they could, "Don't Edward." She whispered, her throat clogged up, "You know I care about you... That's why I'm doing this... Don't try and blackmail me."
"Is it working?" I asked.
She looked at me with firm lips and determined eyes. Suddenly her song stopped and I watched her thoughts as she had a vision.
The images were strong and very vivid, but they moved so fast it was hard to understand them. I watched as trees zoomed past, making the surroundings a green blur. They went fast and then slow and then fast again, giving me a sore head, I could only imagine what it was doing to Alice.
Suddenly the images stopped moving and the person began walking through the forest slowly, waiting for something.
All of a sudden the vision was cut off, because Alice was hiding her thoughts from me.
"What was that?" I asked. "Alice? Why do you keep hiding your thoughts from me?" I questioned.
Her eyes were glazed over for a long moment and unexpectedly her head snapped up and she looked at me, "I don't know what it was."
I stared at her in disbelief and then she looked down at my grip on her arm, "Will you let go of me Edward?" she asked harshly.
"Are you going to run off?" I asked nicely.
She looked up at me, "You don't want me to?" she asked to make sure.
"Yes." I answered.
"Yes. You want me to go?" she said turning towards the door.
My grin tightened, "Yes, I'm sure I don't." I growled.
Her shoulders slumped, "Fine." She mumbled and her thoughts were full of disappointment.
I let go her and touched her cheek, "Thank you Alice."
She smiled, "Thank me later."
"What do you mean?" I asked suspiciously.
"When you're upset again." She said quietly, "You can thank me for making you like that."
"It's not your fault Alice." I whispered.
"No?"
I called up to Alice for the seventh time, "I'm coming!" she yelled.
"Hurry up!" I shouted back.
She arrived at the top of the stairs in the summer dress I'd picked up for her yesterday.
"You got me to pick up your outfit for school?" I asked incredulously.
"Well one has to look good when arriving back at school after spring break." She said happily. I groaned and shook my head, "You look nice." She said, turning to look at me with pursed lips.
"Yeh, but I didn't plan my outfit Alice." I said touching the blue shirt I was wearing.
"Those jeans look new? Are they?" she said, ignoring me.
"No!" I said exasperatedly, "Now come on!"
I walked towards the door and she followed, fixing her hair on the way.
"Where is Jazz?" she asked.
"He left with Rose and Emmett, he was getting sick of waiting for you." I mumbled.
She shrugged, "I saw that coming." She smiled.
I shook my head, ignoring her weirdness and jumped into my Volvo.
We began to travel down the long drive and Alice hummed to herself happily.
"What are you so happy about?" I asked curiously, I didn't want to make matters worse after her guilt trip last night, but I wanted to know...
She smiled up at me, "Nothing..."
We began to drive down the highway towards school when I heard Alice's sudden scream, "Stop!"
I slammed my foot down on the brake and turned to her with wide eyes, "Alice what's wrong?"
She stared straight ahead, "There's something in the woods..." she mumbled.
"What? What's in the woods?" I asked, touching her arm softly.
Her head turned to look at me, "We have to go look." She said seriously.
I gazed at her for a long moment. Her thoughts were a mess, completely jumbled up, she was scared.
I nodded, "Okay let's go..."
We both got out of the car and Alice began to lead us into the forest, "Should I call the others?" I asked her.
She shook her head, "No." Was all she said.
She stopped then and looked around, "You go that way, I'll go this way." She said pointing in different directions.
"Okay," I nodded and I began to run as fast as I could.
I had been running for less than a minute when I stopped abruptly. I could hear something moving softly.
I began to walk slowly, listening very hard to hear who it was. If Alice was right, which she often was, it could be something dangerous.
I turned around and began to walk backwards, I looked up above me at the trees and behind the bushes, looking for anything.
Suddenly I hit something, it felt like a rock.
I turned quickly and froze when I saw who it was.
"Bella..." I whispered in shock.
My mind started running wild. She'd seen me now, she knew I was alive, and I'd ruined her life. She would never be happy now, not knowing I was mourning her since 1918.
I watched her for a long moment as these thoughts ran through me and I watched her perfect being as she stood in front of me.
She looked so beautiful! I was so close to her, I'd just touched her. I'd touched my Bella... It was a dream come true...
I watched her for a long moment as she stared at me with wide eyes, I waited for her to say something, I waited for the recognition.
But her perfect brows furrowed and she opened her mouth to speak, "Do I know you?"
