Chapter Fourteen: All or Nothing

My father and I went back downstairs where everyone else was. It was the final day I could spent with everyone for a while. At least until the battle against the Volturi is over for good. I wanted to spent time with Alice since she was one of the few that really liked B.T. and she was friends with him like I was. But if I knew my father he was reading my mind and he was going to let me hang out with Alice.

"Of course you can hang out with Alice. You two can go shopping together." my father said answering my thoughts like he did with everyone else except my mother, whose thoughts he couldn't read.

"Thank you, daddy." I said hugging his cold hard body before running after Alice, who was sitting in the living room. "Alice, can we hang out?" I asked.

"Sure, Nessie. We can go wedding dress shopping together. Get your stuff and we'll go." Alice answered getting up off the sofa to get her stuff.

"Sounds good to me, Alice." I smiled as we grabbed our stuff and dashed out to the garage for her car, the Yellow Porsche my father got her for keeping an eye on my mother when she was still human.

"You really are the greatest thing to happen to this family besides your mother." Alice smiled as she started her car.

"Thank you. That means a lot." I replied actually excited about going shopping with Alice, which is usually a nightmare.

Alice started her yellow Porsche and pulled out of the garage. It gave me a little time to think to myself about what has happened in the past month and a half. It was towards the end of October and I wasn't even sure if any of us were going to survive. B.T. had warned me to stay away from any cliff areas when Jacob and I leave to run from the Volturi because my vision would come true and I would fall off.

"Your being quiet again, Nessie. What's wrong? Is B.T's death still bothering you?" Alice asked looking at me while she was driving.

"Kind of. I just wanted to know your opinion though. Like what do you think of B.T.?" I asked hoping for a straight answer from my Aunt.

"I'm going to miss him. He was a nice guy. If I told you something though, could you keep it from your father?" Alice asked me with a serious face.

I nodded. "Of course. But I can't help it if he finds out."

"Okay, B.T.'s alive." Alice announced.

"But how?" I asked confused. "And why?" I demanded.

"He didn't want you to know. He's trying to stay clear from you because the Volturi think he's dead and he wants to surprise attack them." Alice explained. "So, he had us lie to you so he could show up when you least expect it."

I didn't know what to say to that. They all made me think that my best friend was gone, dead, never to be heard from again. And now I find out that he is alive and well, just waiting for the Volturi to come and find us so he can attack them secretly without them knowing. I hope it all works out in the end because I don't want to lose anybody in this fight.

Hours later after a very, very long shopping trip with my Aunt Alice we finally went home to the Cullen Mansion. Inside it was quiet, they were all gathered around the television watching some baseball game. I really didn't care that much about it and I was surprised they even had my mom watching considering how bad I heard she was at all activities that involved movement.

"Hey, everyone. We're back." I greeted as Alice and I put the stuff we bought on the floor.

"Hey, Nessie." Jacob waved with a bright smile. "How was shopping with Alice? I hear it's always brutal."

"Nah, it wasn't that bad." I replied. It really wasn't. Alice seemed to be on a different frequency all together, like something was bothering her.

"What do you mean it wasn't that bad? She makes you try on every single thing she likes and doesn't let you try on anything that you like." my mother said outraged.

"She didn't make me do that." I shrugged with a smile. She really didn't and I was happy about that.

"That's not fair, Alice. You made me try on every single thing you liked and wouldn't let me try on anything that I liked." my mother said mad at Alice because of how she was to her.

"I couldn't put Nessie through the same things you went through. That just wouldn't be right." Alice giggled at my mother. My mom looked as though she was going to chase Alice around the house in a fierce rage.

"I'm going to get you for that Alice." my mother yelled jumping over the couch running after Alice who ran away because she saw it in a vision before it happened.

It was kind of funny to see them running around. It brought the feeling to a cheerful level, which was nice because we would be separated starting tomorrow and only Jacob and I would be together while the others fight the Volturi. This was going to be the saddest time in my life besides a few months after I was first born and they came after me because they thought I was an illegal child.

After a little bit of my mother and Alice chasing each other around the grounds of the Cullen property, we eventually settled down to talk about what exactly we were going to do tomorrow and when we will know when the battle is over. We decided the only person who can know about where Jacob and I are going is my mother. The reason being is none of the Volturi's powers can penetrate her mind.

"So, it's settled. Jacob, you will tell Bella where you and Nessie will be going and she will keep it a secret from us until after the Volturi leave or are finished." my father explained. Jacob nodded at him.

I still wasn't sure this would work and if all the ones I love would survive in the end but I was hoping for the best. After all B.T. told me that I need to stay away from all cliffs so I don't fall but if I was near a cliff, why would I fall? Unless someone was going to push me but that would mean someone was going to follow us because Jacob wouldn't push me.

"I didn't think of that, Nessie. Good point." my father stated with a dark look in his eyes.

"What is it, Edward?" asked Carlisle curious about what I was thinking.

"She pointed out that B.T. told her that she needed to stay away from cliffs because she would fall but if she was near a cliff, that would mean that someone was following her." my father explained to his father.

"I understand." Carlisle nodded. "Maybe, we should have someone like Leah or Seth go with them."

"I'll go." volunteered Leah Clearwater. I was kind of surprised.

"Yeah, Seth will be better off with the rest of you since he helped Edward fight the newborns before when they were protecting Bella." announced Jacob.

"Agreed." my father smiled. "Nessie, go get some sleep. Your going to need it for tomorrow." he ordered and I couldn't of agreed with him more.

A/N: This chapter was really short compared to what I usually do but I might push the rest of the story into like three more chapters because I'm running out of ideas. So I hope you liked it. Please review.
