Chapter 9

Bella's point of view

I was so focused on Edward that it was nearly too late. The time with Edward was so catching. I couldn't believe that this was real. It felt like a dream for me. But when I inhaled his scent deeply, a breeze slammed into my face and I suddenly smelled him, Andrew. That wasn't possible, how did he find us? He was still very far away but we needed to be fast. And he probably didn't know that we were really here. Perhaps he just accidently came this way, if we were very fast, he wouldn't find us. So I needed to be fast. I immediately grabbed Edwards arm and started to run towards the house. Even I was in great fear it was an unbelievable feeling to touch him again. When I touched his arm a huge wave of electricity flowed through my body. It was unbelievably amazingly great. I never wanted to release him once again. When Edward noticed that we really needed to hurry, he pulled me onto his back, because even when I was fast now, he was still faster than me. Now, that I was on his back, I enjoyed the last seconds I had with him. I nearly lost myself in visions of how our future could have been, or could still be. I enjoyed the feeling of his body leaning against mine. But than I came back to reality, I saw the house and I knew that I had to leave very soon. There was no time left with Edward right now. But I couldn't be sad about that right now, because I could later, now I have to focus.

When we got into the house they were all sitting in the living room, of course they were quizzing Antoine about what we have done in the past years. But when we hurried inside, everyone looked alarmed at us.

"What happened?", Carlile asked us. But I couldn't explain it right now, the only thing that mattered right now was to leave immediately.

"Antoine, it is him. We need to leave." He looked at me with shock. "But how does he know?" "Well, I don't think that he know exactly, probably he just guessed and was damn right. Because of that we need to hurry, perhaps he will smell us but they can pretend not knowing who we were, we just met by accident. But we need to go now , ok?" I was nearly stuttering because I was so excited. We really needed to hurry.

"Wait Bella, what are you talking, who is he and why do you have to run away from him? And why do you think would we pretend not to know you?" Edward asked me excited. I really hadn't time to explain it to him, but he pushed my hand lovely, he still hold her since I got from his back, it seemed like he didn't want to release me as well. I needed to explain it very shortly.

"Ok, he's the Vampire that changed Antoine, his name is Andrew, and he wants me. He is very dangerous, so we need to go right now." Than I spoke to the whole family, "I'm really sorry to cause you any troubles, but just pretend to met me by accident and you don't know me. Pay attention, you must be really convincing, I'll try to save you as long as possible with my shield. But you really need to be very careful, ok? So we need to go now."

"No", was everything Edward said to me. I looked at him in surprise, why can't he understand that this is very important? "I told you I would never leave you again, and even if I can't speak for the others, I think they will say the same." I looked really surprised, but this was not the time to waste time.

"You don't leave me, I'll leave you. I'm sorry. Antoine, we need to go." When I wanted to go outside, Edward followed me and didn't release my hand. I wanted to release my hand but he was stronger, so I gave up, we had no time. And everyone else was following too. "What do you think are you doing?" Carlile answered, "Well Bella, you seem to fear this Vampire and you say that he is dangerous to all of us. We won't leave you both alone, we did it once with you and you see what happened, so we're coming with you, Alice, Edward, Esme and Bella, you are coming with me in this car. Jasper, Emmet, Rose and Antoine would you take the other one. So Antoine can inform you about the situation and Bella can inform us, sorry Jasper but I think we need Alice in our car so she can tell us something about the future." Even when he spoke very much, it just took some milliseconds, and everyone did as they were told. I embraced Antoine and told him not to worry. But I wasn't that easy because Edward didn't release my hand. When we got into the car, we immediately hurried to the airport. Now I had to explain the situation to them. After I finished, they all looked really shocked. But Carlile kept cool, "Ok, so we need a place to flight to, a place where he can't find us and when he finds us we can fin him. I think the best place would be Isle Esme, of course just if your right? Well, so that's it, I think they will take a long time to find us, and when, we'll be prepared." "But they'll find us, but I think it's still time." We all looked surprised at Alice. "What do you mean, Alice?" did Edward ask. "Well, when Bella put her shield away from Antoine I had a vision, we were on Isle Esme, and Edward was hunker over something, while Antoine was fighting something, but it was very blurry. I'm still trying to see it clearer, but till now there is nothing clear." Just than we arrived at the airport, we hadn't enough time to discuss this in any detail, but we would when we got into the plane. Carlile informed the others and we went to the check-in. Edward still didn't let my hand go, this made me laugh, and also Antoine. First I was a little bit worried that he probably could be a little bit jealous because of me and Edward, but he wasn't at all, he was already friend with Jasper. When we got into the plan we sat down and relaxed a bit. I was sitting next to Edward and Alice, before us where Jasper and Antoine sitting, submerged in their topic. "Really Bella, you have to pay that back, if Antoine is spending so much time with Jasper, you definitely have to go shopping with me more." She said smiling, I could tell she was really happy that Jasper found somebody else to talk to and to have me back. For the first hours we discussed our situation. They would definitely find us, so we needed to get prepared. I needed to practice with my shield even more, and we needed to get a tactic. But right now we just wanted to relax a bit. Antoine now changed to the empty seat next to Carlile and they were discussing again the situation, how they should react best. And Alice switched to the seat next to Jasper, she already missed him after such a short time.

Now I was sitting alone next to Edward, I was looking out of the window to calm myself down. This situation was fitting so good into my and Edwards relationship. Even when Edward and I were happy together, there was always something coming between us. I didn't wanted to look at him, even I was full of desire. But I destroyed our happy reunion. I felt guilty. But than he started to speak to me. "Bella, can you look at me? I couldn't see your face now for hundred years, and now I don't want to waste any second." So I looked at him. "Edward, I'm sorry, I know it is all my fault. I cause you and your family just trouble, I'm sorry." "Bella, please stop to apologize. Nothing of that is your fault. Well probably it is, because you amaze everyone so much that they want to talk to you no matter what it causes." And than he smiled my favourite crooked smile. "You don't know how much I missed your smile." "Perhaps just as much as I missed yours? And you eyes, even if they changed a little bit, and I didn't like them much when I first saw them, because they were so smooth, but now they got nearly the depths back like they had before." "Well, you're here." "I'm really sorry that you lost that for so long, but I want to make you happy again, when you let me?"

"Edward, if I wasn't, you wouldn't be here right now." And than I looked into his eyes, they're so wonderful, and he looked closely into mine. I don't know how long we sat there but it must be very long. The sun already rose outside. We literally got lost in the eyes of the other, we forgot the world around us. Than something changed in his eyes, I couldn't say what it was. Than he spoke, "You know, I would like to try something." Than I smiled, that was exactly the same thing he said to me when he first kissed me. My whole body was electrified. He leaned towards me. He was still looking closely into my eyes. Now I was also leaning towards him, I was really excited now.

"Eh, you both, we need to get out, you know, take you a room." Emmet. Uhh. That was so typical for him, the moment was ruined. "Oh Emmet, you're such an idiot" said Rose to him. But he was right, nearly the whole plane was empty and we needed to get outside. When we got out of the plan, we went to the harbour, well you could call it like that, but it was really small. Just now I noticed I didn't know where we were. But that didn't matter to me. I was with Edward and Andrew was hopefully far away. Than we got on a small boot and drove to the open sea. After about half an hour I could see something rose in the distance.

"Is that Isle Esme?" "Yes, it is, isn't it great, Carlile gave it to as Esme as a present." Oh well, they have really a sense of presents. When we got to the Island, we walked into a huge house of glass. There we sat down on a table, it wasn't big enough for all of us but luckily Vampires are absolutely ok with standing. Than we started to form a strategy. Carlile began speaking.

"Ok, as far as I know, there are two Vampires, the one is able to control our movements, which wouldn't be bad, but the other one can weaken our powers, so Bella's shield won't help us much. So Bella, you need to train your shield, ok? To take advantage out of this place, you need to try to cover the whole island, will this be possible?"

"Oh, I don't know, I never tried such a huge area. But I could try."

"Ok, if not, you just have to try to cover all of us an the biggest area possible. The next problem is, how will we notice that there are coming?"

"Well, I could hear their thoughts when they're near enough."

"And I can probably see them when they arrive."

"Yeah but he can weaken your powers as well."

"Not if I can cover them. Than their powers will be protected, you just have to hurry, because when he's near enough he can weaken my shield and you will be unprotected."

"Ok, so, here's the plan", said Jasper, he was the strategist in the family." Bella tries to cover us as long as possible, Always some of us, except Bella, are swimming around the island, as soon as somebody sees them coming, you tell us, we will get some underwater walkie-talkies. When you know that they're coming, you call us and say us where they are. While they are concentrating on Bella, we will attack them from behind, we first knock the other one out, than can Bella save us from this Andrew. So we should make a schedule about the swimming, I guess we could stay in water for at least a week, but whe need to go hunt. Well, I will take the first period with Alice and Antoine, than Rosalie and Emmet and than Carlile and Esme, when your right with that?"

I noticed that he left Edward out, and I was really thankful for that. I couldn't stand to leave Edward for just a second, I still didn't release his hand. Than Carlile spoke again, "Well, that's a good plan Jasper." I think now we can relax a bit, and Bella we need to train." I really didn't feel like training but I had to. So I went outside with Carlile and Edward. Carlile suggested that Edward should go so far, that he couldn't read their minds anymore. I didn't like the idea of releasing his hand but it had to be. Edward pushed my hand a last time and than he went away. I felt really empty when he left, even if I know that he will return, but it was still difficult. I started to spread my shield as far as possible. We trained a couple of hours and I managed to cover half of the island. I was really proud of myself. While I was practicing, Antoine went into the water with Alice and Jasper, but before he came to me.

"Bella, I really love to see you so happy." "Yeah, but I'm sorry that I leave you so much alone. And all this troubles are just because of me."

"Bella, you task right now is just to focus on training and be happy with Edward, that's all what counts, and by the way, I really like Jasper, I think we could become great friends." "Yes, I really hope so, even when this does mean more shopping for me." "You're damn right." Called Alice to us, this made us all laugh very hard. But than they went into the water and I continued training.

But now we were already training for more than 10 hours and I was leached out. "Carlile, can we make a break, if I'm training just one second more I will die!" 'Ok, you're right, and you have to use already so much power to protect us all, make a break, than he went back into the house to Esme. Esme had prepared the house while we trained, it hadn't enough bedrooms for all of us, but we're not sleeping so it was no problem. Rose and Emmet were hunting and buying those walkie-talkie. Now I was standing outside alone and waited for Edward to come back, as soon as he noticed the training stopped he was next to me.

"So, what do you want to do now?", he put his arm around my waist and hold me tightly.

"I don't know, I would like to see the Island, do you know any nice paces here?"

"Sure. Come on,"
