Edward and Bella thought it would be wise to hide among everybody in steerage, since they knew that Rose's mother and Cal would be looking for them
It wasn't that hard since Alexander spoke Russian and Edward knew how to speak Russian as well, and with covering up Bella's clothes and hair with a blanket, they looked like a poor Russian family
After a while, Edward spotted Cal searching for them
" Keep your head down and be quiet" Edward whispered
A steward went up to Cal and talked to him but Cal ignored him and began searching under blankets and hats for Bella and Edward
Cal was coming their way
" Lets take a walk" Edward suggested
They hurriedly walked the other direction and to Cal that looked suspicious since the couple didn't start walking until he started heading towards them
Cal hurriedly came after them and caught up with them
Bella whirled around and slapped Cal in the face, " Fine, you caught us, yes we lived... how awkward for you"
After Cal got over his shock from being hit by Rose again he started talking to her, " Rose, please, your mother and I have been searching this whole ship for you and I think" He was interrupted because Bella held up her hand
" Cal, I no longer care what you think" Bella said
" But" Cal started
" No buts, don't say anything, it's time you listen to what I have to say... we will make a deal... since that is something you understand... from this moment on you do not exist for me and nor I for you... you shall not see me again and you will not attempt to find either of us" Bella indicated Edward, " In return, we will keep our silence and your actions last night will never come to light, you will get to keep your honor that you have... carefully purchased"
Cal was silent for a minute
" Am I clear?" Bella asked
" What about your mother? What shall I tell her?" Cal asked
" Tell her the truth? Her daughter went down with the Titanic" Bella said, " Along with the one she loves"
" Rose please come back to me, you're precious to me" Cal begged which is so beneath him
" Mr. Hockley" Bella said icily, " Jewels are precious and I am not a Jewel"
Cal looked at Edward and at the little toddler he just noticed then turned back to Bella, " Is this really what you want?"
" It is" Bella said firmly
Cal sighed and nodded then without saying another word, he left the three
Bella sighed with relief
" You did good Bella" Edward said with a smile
Bella smiled at Edward
A few days later Edward pointed out the Statue of Liberty to both Bella and Alexander
" Statue of Libity" Alexander said in Russian
" Yes Alexander you are correct" Edward said in Russian and smiled at the little boy
Alexander had a big smile on his face and he hugged both Edward and Bella
They watched the Statue get closer and closer as they got closer and closer to America
" I know we live in America, but this is a beautiful sight" Bella said with a smile
" Not as beautiful as you are my Bella" Edward said and he kissed her head
Bella smiled at Edward
Finally they made it to America but they had to wait until it was their turn to get off the ship
" Oh wow, look at all of those people" Bella gasped
" News travels fast" Edward said
There were over 30,000 people crowding on the dock, they were friends, relatives, ambulances and of course the press and hundreds of police officers were trying to keep the mob back
" How are we going to get past the press mob?" Bella asked nervously
" I'll get us through, just hold on tight to Alexander" Edward said
Bella nodded
After a while, they were finally off the Carpathia and an Immigration officer asked for their names
" Jack, Rose and Alexander Dawson" Edward said and he pushed Bella and Alexander forward to where the officer was pointing to
Edward makes it look like they were going that way but then once the officer wasn't looking, he made them get lost in the crowd
" Edward, what are we going to do with Alexander?" Bella asked, " We can't take him back to our time"
" Bella, we don't even know how to get back to our time" Edward said, " We'll worry about that later, besides, I thought you wanted to go to Chicago and see me as a kid" Edward smirked
" I do, but I still want to get home" Bella said
Edward nodded, " Yes, me too"
Alexander said something in Russian
" What did he say?" Bella asked
" He said that he wants his babushka and dedushka which are his grandparents" Edward said and then Edward said something else in Russian
" What did you ask him?" Bella asked
" If he was going to see his grandparents in America and he said yes and his older sister Anya" Edward explained
"So... we need to find his family before we go to Chicago... that's... going to be hard... you're not a vampire anymore so you can't track them by the smell of their blood" Bella said
" We'll think of something" Edward said
Alexander said something in Russian again and Edward answered back
" Now what?" Bella asked
" He just said that he wanted his grandparents and sister again" Edward said, " We should go somewhere and wait out all of this commotion... what kind of money is in that coat?"
Bella smiled at that, " Well we have the necklace... and we have..."
" Not here, lets hide, I have a feeling there's a lot... and we don't want to be pick pocketed" Edward whispered
They hurried towards an alley so nobody could see them and looked to see if anybody was in the alley but nobody was there
" Ok, how much money do we have?" Edward asked
Bella checked the pockets on the coat and came up with four stacks of bills. Fifty 10 dollar bills, fifty 20 dollar bills, fifty 50 dollar bills, and fifty 100 dollar bills
" Well, we have 9,000 with us" Bella whispered
Edward nodded, " We'll use the 10s for now and get ourselves a hotel for tonight... let me handle the money since it's more common for men carrying the money in this time"
Bella agreed and gave him the money which he put in his pockets
They found a little motel and rented one room and for the three of them it was $6, $2 a person
" Wow that's cheap" Bella said once they were in their room
Edward shrugged, " It's the early 1900s"
Bella nodded
" Now that we have our room, lets go get something to eat" Edward suggested
That night, while the other two were sleeping, Edward woke up at exactly midnight, he woke up to the familiar smell of blood and the burning in his throat. He hurried over to a mirror and he looked like his normal Edward Cullen self
