AN: okay, so ill try to keep this chapter at a reasonable length, but there's no guarantee. Hope you like everyone's reactions. And keep reading to see who's coming from HP! We should hopefully go back to Bella in the next chapter, but I never know where my imagination will take me!
I do not own Twilight or Harry Potter, though my life would be perfect if I did.
EPOV
The cottage was a scene of chaos. I had to deal with the confused shouts and conversations, as well as my family's thoughts.
"WHAT THE HELL?" She has a twin? Am I dreaming? SERIOSTLY!
Green thing. Pointy hat. Warts. THAT'S BELLA? "She's a witch? A WITCH?"
"Where is she now then?" Hog, Warts? A school? There are more of them?
I'm so confused. What's happening? Oh god! "Is she in trouble?"
"JESUS what is the world coming to?" and that's pretty rich coming from a vampire
I think it's awesome! "Little weak Bella wasn't as weak as we thought!"
"She has a twin? Did we even know her at all?" Obviously not
How could she just leave? "How could she do this to us?"
Stupid DVD "She could have at least told us in person!"
"And now one of them is coming here?" THEY COULD BE DANGEROUS!
But I was desperately trying to tune it out. Tune it all out. Come on Bella. I thought. Please, pick up the phone. Text me back. Anything! Just let me know you're alive! When I had first called her, I left voicemails beginning her to call me back. That then changed to me screaming down the phone, taking out my rage at the fact I actually had no idea who my wife was. But I felt awful as soon as I hung up, and the next voicemails changed to me apologising and telling her it was okay. Yes, I was extremely upset and hurt, but there was something in my head that Bella said in the video that I couldn't forget.
"Remember, it was in reverse once. Think about how hard it was for you to admit to me you were a vampire."
And she was right. Remembering how hard it was for me not to tell her what I was; it was one of the hardest parts of our relationship. And she's right; I wasn't going to tell her. I wasn't going to tell her to protect her. To keep her safe. Because I didn't want her knowing and being vulnerable. And that's exactly why she didn't tell me she was a witch. But now I just wanted to hold her in my arms. I wanted to tell her I was okay with it. I wanted to kiss her, and tell her that I love her. And I wanted to protect her from this 'Voldemort' person just like I protected her from James and Victoria. But from the sound of things she would protect herself a lot better. Old habits die hard.
"Please Bella" I whisper. "I just want to hear your voice" I put the phone to my ear. I jumped as I heard it ring. All of the other times it had gone straight to voicemail. This meant her phone was on. Please, please, please. I thought, but it was no use. It rang out and went to voicemail. I didn't bother leaving a message. I suddenly realised everyone had stopped talking. I turned around in time to see Alice burst through the door.
"ALICE!" I yelled, running straight towards her. "Where have you been? Quickly, please I have to know, tell me she's okay! Tell me she ALIVE!" I yelled in her face. Alice didn't seem taken aback by my yelling, she'd probably seen it coming.
"Calm down Edward, she's safe. She's alive" She told me, and then showed me a vision. It evolved Bella speaking to 3 other people. I assumed the one that looked like her was her brother. It was strange how relieved I was, simply knowing she was alive.
"Thank you Alice" I whispered, before collapsing on the sofa. Everyone else seemed to have calmed down too, and the family all gathered around me.
"She had to do it Edward" Said Alice, looking straight at me.
"Yes, she was trying to protect us" said Esme. Suddenly my anger re-appeared.
"But she's my wife!" I screamed. "I thought I knew everything about her, but the whole time she wasn't who she said she was!"
"Daddy?" I heard a small voice coming from behind the wall of vampires and werewolf. They all dispersed, to reveal my daughter standing behind them holding a teddy Bella got her. I instantly felt awful about getting angry.
"Renesmee" I whispered, and held out my arms for her. She walked towards me and sat on my lap while I held her close.
"Mummy's gone" She told me. I was surprised.
"How did you know that?" She pressed her hand to my face, thought there was no need for her to do this to me. I guess she did it out of habit. She had been dreaming, but she had been on the edge of conciseness. Bella had talked to her whilst she was asleep, but Renesmee had still heard it.
"My dearest Renesmee" Bella's voice whispered over her dream. "Always know that you are loved. Mamma loves you so much. You will grow up to be a beautiful woman, and mamma is so proud of you. You're the most beautiful thing Edward has given me. Please look after your father. Don't let him do anything stupid. Never doubt that I'm not thinking about you wherever I am, and please be safe. When you grow up, make sure you don't get yourself into trouble, and don't break Jacobs's heart like I did. Mamma will always love you baby, I'm so sorry I must leave you. Now sleep my beautiful Nessie."
If I could cry, I would be now. Poor Bella. How hard it must have been for her to leave us. To leave her daughter. I felt awful. Bella didn't want to leave. And here I was angry at the fact she had left us. It must have been one of the hardest things she had to do. I suddenly realised that this must have been what it was like for her when I left her. Leaving to keep me safe. Leaving so suddenly. It was like déjà vu but in reverse.
"How did she know?" Jacob said, taking me out of my thoughts.
"Bella spoke to her while she was asleep, but Renesmee still heard it. I understand now. I'm sorry everyone for getting angry, but Bella left for a reason. And when I married her, I vowed to support all of her choices in life."
My family all smiled at me, when suddenly we heard a 'pop' outside. We all froze. This must be our visitor.
But were they safe?
There was a knock at the door. Not many things get vampires scared, but we were all scared in this situation. There was silence for a minuet, before Jasper yelled;
"Who are you? What do you want?" We still hadn't opened the door.
"oh, erm, what was it I had to say? Oh yes!" From the sounds of it, it was a woman. She cleared her throat. "I am a friend of Bella's." We all instantly relaxed, but not much. I got up, still holding my daughter and walked to the door. I opened it slowly, to reveal a small, ginger woman. She had a navy flower dress on and a brown cardigan, both of which had holes in them. She was slightly overweight, and quite short. But, she looked like, well, a nice friendly woman. She smiled as soon as she saw me.
"Edward?" She asked. I nodded. She smiled more. "Bella's told me a lot about you in her letters. And this must be Renesmee" She was smiling at my daughter, who smiled back before hiding her face in my shoulder.
"Who are you?" I asked her.
"Molly Weasley, Ron Weasley's mother. I've also known Bella since she was twelve" She said kindly, still smiling. Wasn't Ron Weasley one of Bella's friends? Did this mean I could trust this woman? She had said that she was a friend of Bella's. She seemed good.
"Please come in" I told her, letting her through the door. She passed me and into to house. I saw her jump a little, as she took in the sight of 6 beautiful pale people and one muscular tanned one. Esme saw this and immediately got up.
"Please" She smiled. "Please come and sit down." Molly walked over the sofa and sat down. She was still smiling.
"It's so weird, you're all so much more than I imagined. Oh, and you must be Jacob!" she said to Jacob, who was slightly taken aback but nodded.
"Now, I know you must all be very confused and upset…"
"Of course we are! She left without saying anything!" Rosalie said. She seemed to be the only person still pissed off. Molly seemed a bit surprised by this.
"Rosalie, stop it. It was very hard for her to leave us!" I growled at her.
"Do you know where mamma is?" Renesmee asked. We all looked at Molly, because we all wanted to hear the answer to that. Molly smiled at Renesmee, and I knew instantly that she was under Renesmee's spell. No pun intended.
"Oh, yes dear, I do know. She's at Hogwarts, her old school. She's with her brother, my son and Hermione. They are going to try and find a way to destroy the two horcruxes they've found, and then they are expecting to fight the final battle"
"The final battle?" Alice asked. "Is that why I keep seeing Bella running around while loads of people cast spells at each other?"
"You must be Alice, the one who can see the future?" Alice nodded. "Yes, that's probably why." She stopped and looked at Renesmee. "Oh, she has Bella's eyes! And she looks just like you Edward! Oh she's beautiful! I can't believe Bella's a mother! I mean, I was shocked enough when I found out she was getting married!"
"So Bella's kept in touch with you?" I asked her.
"Not with me personally but she wrote to Harry and the others. She sent a letter almost every day when she first came out here. She was really against the idea of hiding at first. She hated the idea of being safe while Harry wasn't. But Voldemort was closing in on her. If he caught her, he would use her to get to Harry. Dumbledore already knew his plan. He would blackmail her into staying with him, but then end up killing Harry anyway. So she had to go away somewhere where Voldemort couldn't find her." explained Molly.
"So you sent her to the rainiest place in America" Jasper interrupted.
"She was safe here. Also, she knew one of the horcruxes was here, and so that was her compromise on going into hiding. She wanted to help out at least a little instead of just sitting around waiting." Molly explained. "Like I said, she sent letters daily, but then they slowly started to come less often. I guess it must have been when she met you. It's strange, but, just by reading her letters I knew she was in love. She adored you, and you adored her. It was lovely hearing about your relationship progress. Of course, it would be just like Bella to fall for a vampire and get herself into trouble. But she told us about your lifestyle, and we knew she was safe with you. She sent a letter every 3 weeks towards the end. We were all so scared something awful had happened to her when we didn't hear from her all those weeks after the wedding. But when I heard she'd had a baby! God you should have seen how happy we all were! We had to keep the celebrations quiet though, because, well we didn't want to attract any unwanted attention"
"I don't know why you guys are so upset about this. Personally I think it's awesome!" Emmett boomed, making Molly jump.
"Emmett!" cried Rosalie.
"Well I don't see why you guys are so upset. We all know why Bella didn't tell us. We all understand, so what's the point in moping around. We should embrace this! I mean come on, how many people do we know who can cast spells?" Emmett told us. I smiled. I couldn't help myself. He always saw the bright side of things.
"Mummy's special Uncle Emmet" Nessie said. She climbed out of my arms and walked towards Molly, who was now beaming at her.
"That's right Ness, your mummy is special." Emmett beamed. Renesmee held out her arms for Molly. Molly looked at me.
"May I?" she asked me, and I could see she was dying to. I smiled.
"Sure" She picked up Nessie and held her close.
"It's fascinating. I mean, how does it work? The magic?" Carlisle asked Molly. Trust him to be fascinated. Molly smiled, and Renesmee was sitting on her lap. I heard Jacob gulp. He was very nervous.
"Nessie, come here" He said, and she walked over to him. He just wanted her to be safe. Molly seemed a little put off by this, but I could hear in her mind she wasn't offended. She sat up and cleared her throat. She took out a long wooden stick.
"This is my wand. I don't really know how, but it possesses magical powers. When I was 12, I went to a wand shop. I didn't choose the wand, it chose me. I can't really explain how. I just knew it was right the moment I touched it. It's the same for every single witch or wizard in the world. Anyway, there are certain words you have to say, and certain things will happen. Spells, if you like. When you become more advanced, a witch or wizard is able to simply do a spell without even talking." Molly explained.
"Can you show us?" I asked. I couldn't help myself. Molly smiled.
"Expecto Patronum" She said in a clear voice. A silver light erupted from the end of the wand, creating a silver cat. It walked around the room, before curling up on Nessie's lap. She gave a squeal of delight before it disappeared. We all sat there in silence.
"Wow" I surprised it was Rosalie who spoke first. "So Bella can do stuff like that?"
"And a lot more. She's very talented" Molly smiled.
So we all understood now. But I remembered something Molly had said earlier.
"So she's going to fight in the final battle?" I asked. Molly nodded.
"Take me to her"
"Edward!" my family said in unison.
"Look, I might not have the magical powers. But I'm immune to most spells right? And I'm strong. Maybe I could fight without magic. And I'm fast too. I could dodge spells." I said to Molly.
"Edward, I don't know if that's a good idea. Bella wants you all to be safe." Molly told me.
"When I married her, I took a vow to always be by her side. She needs me now. I'm not just going to sit around here while my wife fights for her life."
The room was silent.
"Now, take me to Hogwarts" I demanded.
AN: argh! This was so long too! But I think I'm done with the long chapters now. So, you guys have any guesses what's going to happen next? Hehe! The next chapter will defo me BPOV, and I think we'll be meeting Snape again! :) What did you guys think of everyone's reactions? And of Molly? Please review!
Oh, I forgot to ask, what do you guys think about Voldemort's obsession with Bella? I'd be really creeped out if he wanted me to be his wife haha. I thought it would be a good reason for why Bella went into hiding but not Harry. Let me know!
