Chapter 12

Edwards pov

It had been awhile since I had been back here, I never imagined walking along this path again that led to my old house but I thought I owed my parents a visit. It was misting outside but it didn't bother me in the least bit as I made my way to the door. A mental debate took place as I decided if I should really go in or not. Surely Alice would have seen me coming and told the others. I went to open the door when it swung open and there stood Esme.

I didn't have time to think as she pulled me into a tightly motherly embrace I didn't realized I had missed until I was in her arms.

"Hey Mom," I whispered but I knew she heard me clearly as she motioned me into the house. Alice came skipping down the stairs a smile wide on her face.

"What have you been up to?" Esme questioned as we sat down in the living room. Carlisle was still at the hospital working so it was just the three of us.

"I've just been traveling for a bit," I stated and Alice glared a bit.

"Don't lie, he tried tracking! Oh Esme, you should have seen some of the visions I had of him. He was attempting to track Victoria for three years. Each time he got a lead as to where she was it was always wrong. One time he picked up her scent and went all the way to Russia when she had went to South America," of course Alice would think that was funny, I even saw Esme fighting back a grin.

"So tracking isn't exactly my thing," I muttered. My mind was overcome with Esme thoughts of me possibly staying for a week or so. I looked up to her but my forced myself to look away when I saw her wishful eyes, "you know I can't stay here for long, I will be tempted to go some place I shouldn't be," I whispered, I'm pretty sure my voice cracked a bit.

Alices mind had been one big puzzle since I had stepped foot in the house. Every now and then she would slip up and I would see a little bit of what she was trying to hide from me. Nothing too major, mostly she was imagining what she was going to do to Jasper once she saw him, some incentive to stay out of her mind but I just had to know what she was hiding from me.

"Have you been here long?" I directed my question at Alice as she just shook her head and started to ask me questions about where I had been. Never once did we bring up the Rosalie situation, last I heard they were staying at Esme island for awhile.

It was later in the day when I couldn't stand the temptation , I just had to go see her. If I could see her in person and see for myself that she was alright then I could leave knowing that I made the right choice in letting her believe in a lie.

It was night by time I finally lost the debate to myself and I currently stood outside the house that she lived in but something was different. There was no police cruiser in the driveway like there always was and I knew that Charlie would never leave this house or take another job. He loved it here. The truck wasn't in the driveway. I took a deep breath and what I smelled supirised me. They weren't here. They hadn't been here for awhile. I guess she really did move on with her life after everything had happened.

"What are you doing here?" A man questioned from behind me and a growl instantly left my throat. I knew exactly who that voice belonged to.

"What do you know mutt?" I spun around to face him. I had every intent to jump on him and beat him but my logical side won as all I did was growl.

"She isn't here if that's who your looking for," Jacob states bitterly as I stared at him.
"Good , " I said turning around to walk away. I only got a few feet before I heard him think something about going to the cemetery to visit Charlie, " what happened?" I demanded turning back to him.

"What are you talking about?" he questioned as I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.

"Why are you going to the cemetery?" I questioned as his face grew grim.

"Charlie died of cancer a few years back and Billy wants to go see him. Today was the day he died. " he walked away after that and I was too busy thinking my own thoughts to listen in on his. I ran all the way back to the house and up to Alices room. I knew she had to see me coming but she simply chose to ignore it.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I growled throwing the door open as she sat contently down on her bed.

"You didn't need to know it would have only made you change your mind and you were so dead-set on keeping your word on not seeing Bella so what was the point in calling you?" she responded as I took a deep breath trying to calm my nerves. I hated when she was right. If I would have known I would have come back and it would have killed me to be away from Bella when she needed me most.

"You still should have told me," I growled before slamming her door and walking back to my room. Music didn't do anything to help relax me at all I looked out the window at the pouring rain.

I saw a group of vampires standing before the Volturi, they were discussing some matters that had arose I assumed, everything was muted. A vampire stepped forward and bowed before Aro and one of the vampires turned around stunned at what he had just heard.

I caught a glimpse of his face and my facial expression turned to shock as Alice ran into my room.

"How?" I questioned her jumping up, she just shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. I darted out of the house and jumped in my car speeding off to the airport. I ran to the front of the line not caring that I was pissing everyone off by going to the front of the line.

"I need a ticket to Italy!" I demanded slamming my hand down on the counter. The lady gave me a petrified look before looking at the schedule. She didn't ask any questioned as I handed her my credit card and she handed me a ticket. I knew my way around here so I quickly ran to security and onto the plane that would take me to Italy.

This had to of been the longest flight I had ever been on. I was angry and shocked, I wanted answers and just sitting here I wasn't getting any. They made an announcement stating the plane would be landing soon and it only made me more anxious. The plane descended and once it was safe I ran off the plane and the burning in my throat started, I had forgot to hunt. I held my breath as I looked up and locked eyes with the person I had seen in Alice's vision.

"Charlie? But how?" the words escaped my lips and then I felt something enter my mind. I narrowed my eyes a little as my feet began to move on there own accord, I don't remember quite what happened next but I know I needed up in the forest.

"What the hell just happened," I stated to myself as I looked around. That was the weirdest experience that I had ever encountered and I never in my immortal life wanted to experience it again.
