Chapter 18- Reunion
BPOV
It's been three days since Rose and Emmett found me. Today I was on my way back home. I was finally going to see everyone again. I was so excited to see Jake again. I really missed him. Rose, Emmett, and I got into Emmett's car and Emmett drove the rest of the way home. We were going to meet everyone at the Cullen house. Esme wanted to make a huge dinner for everyone. We pulled in the driveway and went into the house. When I saw Jake I ran to him, through, my arms around him and gave him a big kiss. There were tears in my eyes.
"Look at you." Jake said. "You're as big as a house. You were gone too long. I'm never letting you out of my sight again."
"Look at you." I said. "When's the last time you had a hair cut? I was gone too long, and I'm not ever ever letting you out of my sight." We just stood there for the longest time, holding, hugging, and kissing each other. Everyone else was standing back and letting us have our space. Jasper looked over come with emotions. Everyone's emotions were at an all time high. After a little while I hugged and thanked everyone else. I got to Jasper and Alice first.
"Thanks you guys for everything you did." I said giving them each a hug. Jasper smiled. Alice threw her arms around me.
"Bella, Bella, Look at you, you look so beautiful. It has been way too long. I missed you a lot." Alice said. Alice was so great! I had forgotten how bubbly she really was.
"I've missed you too Alice. It's good to see the rest of your family. I can't thank Rose and Emmett enough for coming to my rescue."
"I'm sorry, Edward turned into such a pyshco." Emmett said.
"It's not your fault. Thanks for saving me from Chris. And Rose you don't know how happy I was when I saw you in that gas station." Rose gave a little chuckle.
"Well, there is a first time for everything."
"We're just so happy Edward didn't hurt you dear. I don't know what he was thinking." Esme said.
"I should have seen just how obsessed and saddened he really was. I thought I knew him. I wish I had gotten a chance to speak with him." Carlisle said.
"Believe me Carlisle, you wouldn't have wanted to see him like that. He wasn't Edward." Jasper said softly. I let them continue with their conversation. I gave each member of the pack a hug. I noticed that there was something wrong, they didn't look as happy. I noticed that Seth was missing, and then when I got to Leah I could tell something was definitely wrong. I gave her a long hug.
"Oh Leah, what happened? Where's Seth?"
"He's dead." Mike answered for her.
"How?" I asked.
"Eric and Violet." It was Sam this time.
"What are we going to do about it?" I asked.
"Hunt them down." Leah said. Mike looked at her.
"After the funeral and I am coming with you. You're not doing this alone."
"She will not be alone." Sam said. "Paul and Jared will be going with her. It's way too dangerous for you to go. Stay here. Don't give her someone else to worry about."
"When is the funeral?" I asked.
"In two days. Jake has all the details. Let's not talk about this anymore, today is about your return. It's supposed to be a happy time." Sam said. A little while latter, Rose and Esme resurfaced from the kitchen.
"Food is already. We need some help bringing it to the table." Esme said.
There were a couple of huge tables set up in the middle of the living room. Alice of course set everything up. She decorated everything very nice, you had the feeling you were outside on a bright sunny day, only it was really the Cullen living room. Everything was really nice. I was glad to be home.

I was happy to finally have Bella home. She looked good. She of course was very pregnant. I don't remember her being that big. Has it really almost been two months since she was taken? She looks so beautiful, and she has that glow. I love her so much. It's really nice that all of us could be together, even the Cullens. I figured I shouldn't call them bloodsuckers anymore. They did so much for Bella. The mood is a little somber. The pack misses Seth so much. He was such a special guy. Leah is so torn up. Sam is so torn up. I just wish the pack didn't have to go through this.
"Hey, you are you ok? You haven't even touched any of your food yet? Bella asked me squeezing my hand.
"Just thinking about Seth." I replied. She gave me a sideways hug.
"I love you." Was all she said but it comforted me a lot. I was so glad she was back where she belonged. I was thankful that nothing happened. It was just really nice to be altogether.
