Chapter 5

EPOV

"Because we feed off of animals instead of humans," Carlisle answered Bella's question.

She looked thoughtful for a moment and then she nodded. She opened her mouth to ask another question but was cut off by Rosalie, "Why do you want the Volturi to stop feeding on humans?"

Bella closed her mouth again, as my family and I turned to glare at Rosalie. Way to get to the point.

"Because it's a sin." Bella responded conviction in her tone.

"How do you know what their doing is a sin?" Rosalie shot back.

Bella's eyes had a look of pain to them as she answered,

"Because I know." the finality in her tone made it known she was done talking about this...for now.

BPOV

"What do you do for a living?" I questioned, obviously changing the subject.

"I work as a doctor," The man with blonde hair, that sat next to the woman with caramel coloured hair, answered.

It dawned on me who he was. My father always talked about him. I internally winced at that thought. And said,

"Carlisle Cullen it's a pleasure to meet you and your family." I turned and faced the bronze haired one and continued,

"And Edward you were the first Carlisle changed during the Spanish Influenza. Then he changed Esme after a certain incedent. Rosalie came next and Carlisle changed her with the intent of her possibly being a mate for Edward. Emmett was changed by Carlisle after Rosalie dragged him away from where he was attacked by a bear. And last to join your family was Alice with her mate Jasper after she had a vision and sought out your family."

To say that the Cullen family was shocked was an understatement.

"How did you know that?" Carlisle asked.

I shrugged. "I just know and sometimes it's fun to watch your family. Especially, when you go to visit the Denali's."

"How do you watch us, and why do you watch when we go to visit the Denali's."

Ignoring the first question I looked back at Carlisle,

"Because I like watching Tanya's attempts to seduce Edward. My friends and I always bet about those attempts, just like Emmett, Jasper, Alice, and Rosalie do."

Emmett and Jasper begun to laugh, while Alice and Rosalie tried to hide smiles, and Tanya sent a glare my way. Edward looked embarrassed and angry. I chuckled and then looked at Eleazar.

"I know about your family too Eleazar."

He looked surprised, but I really didn't mind. Then Alice asked,

"If you already know so much about us, why did you ask to learn about us?"

"Because I think your families are much more fun, and today I wanted to play and relax." I answered.

EPOV

Play? She wanted to play? I don't think I would ever understand Isabella. After stunning us all with her knowledge about our families she wanted to play?

Bella then stood up and did a handstand on the bench and said,

"Come on, we'll have fun."

Then Bella was falling back pushed by an invisible force. Even more strange she was caught by a invisible force.

"NOEL!"she screamed.

"What, you said you wanted to play." Noel suddenly appeared next to the bench.

How?-Jasper, Eleazar

Amazing-Carlisle

Bella looked mad and she fought to be let go by whatever held her, "Damascus, let me go, NOW!"

All of a sudden you could exactly see who was holding Bella. The man with blonde hair known as Damascus.

DamascusPOV(Bet you didn't see that coming)

I released Bella and watched as she chased Noel.

"Julian, come save your wife before she's killed," I said.

Julian suddenly appeared right where Bella had been sitting on the bench. His choice of clothes for today being white jeans and a button-down shirt.

He looked up at me and laughed, "What has my wife done this time?"

"She pushed Bella, off the bench," I answered.

He looked thoughtful for a moment and he turned his gaze to the clearing where Bella was chasing Noel around the trees. "Nah," Julian turned back to face me, "I think she can manage."

"She's going to kill you." I stated. He shrugged and then turned to face the Cullen's and Denali's who were watching in interest.

"How are all of you doing this lovely morning?" I chuckled at the irony in his question. Today was anything, but lovely. The clouds were gray and covered the sky like a blanket just waiting to release it's torrent of pent up rain.

"Fine," the one named Alice started, "May I ask, is it true Noel's your wife?"

Julian nodded his head, "Sure is."

The vampires looked confused.

"How, your look only about nineteen?" Carmen asked.

"I am, thank you very much, but I think that question would give away to much." Julian answered.

He was going to say more. Until, Noel ran up and hid behind him. "Save me, Julian."

He chuckled and said, "This is your mess," and he disappeared.

Noel let out a scream of anger and shouted, "Julian, your sleeping on the floor tonight."

Bella reached us at that moment and was about to throw herself at Noel, when I intervened and wrapped my arms around her waist. Her hands made tiny fists and she began hitting my chest, "Let me go!"

I tsked her and took her away from Noel out to the clearing. "Calm down, Bella." She huffed and looked up at me through her eyelashes and pouted. Looking into her eyes I was transferred to different times in my memories.

Times before Lara. When it was just Bella and I. I shook my head.That was a long time ago, forget about it. Instead I thought about what we had learned about Bella in those three days we were with her.

About her split soul, and how she got violent whenever she was angry. This was a problem that was first priority, a problem that was much more important than what happened between me and Bella a few centuries ago.

Noel POV

"Is Damascus married to Bella?" Tanya asked.

I had been standing here observing them for awhile now and I had to agree with Tanya they did look like they were in love. Once, is the better word. I thought to myself. I really hope Lara wasn't around.

"You can still see it." Crap. So, Lara was here.

I turned to face her as did the other vampires, but they had looks of confusion on their faces.

"What do you mean?" Esme asked.

I gave Lara a look, warning her not to go there.

"I was Bella's best friend we used to tell each other everything." she started.

She went there.

"Was?" Carmen asked.

"Yes, was. I'm sure Bella will say I'm her best friend, but I know that at times she truly hates me."

I was going to kill her if she continued.

"And the reason she hates me is because I stole her fiancee away. You see, it was at their engagement party that I learned..."

She didn't get to finish because at that moment Bella's voice broke in,

"Is that how you really feel?"

Lara turned to face Bella who stood in front of Damascus and I thought. This will destroy one of them sooner or later. It was true that Bella and Damascus were going to be married and it is true that Lara sort of stole him from Bella. While Bella said she was alright everyone could still sometimes see glimpses of hurt in her eyes, but there was something more to it. It wasn't just Lara and Damascus that caused Bella pain it was something else and since I was her friend I needed to find out what and fix it.

"Yes." Lara's answer came so confidently that it made me pause in my thoughts.

The air grew tense and quiet as everybody held their breath waiting to see what Bella would say.

"Then you're wrong because I have no reason to hate you. Because I always knew that Damascus wasn't mine. I was just supposed to fix him up and have him ready for the one he was meant to be with. Which was always you Lara, it was set in stone long before you even knew it. And maybe I got attached, but I always knew in the back of my head he belonged to you. So, it's you who should hate me, for not letting you know"

Then Bella left.

I couldn't help it I let out a small gasp because while the vampires might not know exactly what she meant we knew perfectly what she meant.

We have to meet was all I could think. So, that we could discuss what exactly we had just found out and decide if it would hurt our bond. I then disappeared off to find Julian and fill him in, leaving a very confused and worried Lara and Damascus behind.


Thanks for reading the chapter.
