AN: You guys are awesome! The reviews were the best! I loved reading them!

This chapter was harder than the others, so it may not be as good. Sorry about that.

Edward POV:

Esme stood beside Carlisle. "Edward?" Was that young lady... human?" A look of pure shock flooded her kind face.

"Was it?" Jasper prompted. He had Alice by the hand. I remained silent. I could still hear her perfect voice saying those two words that smashed my universe to pieces. 'I'm engaged." I wanted nothing more than to lock myself away in my room, away from my family, away from their prying eyes.

"I want to be alone right now." I said slowly, shaking my head as if to clear it. The others protested, but I slammed the door in their faces, almost unhinging it. I ran my hands through my hair, exasperated. I closed my eyes, pinched the bridge of my nose and took a few deep, slow breaths. When I opened my eyes, there stood Alice, staring up at me with pain in her eyes.

"Edward." She began. "You love her." She didn't phrase it as a question, more of an explanation.

"What's it to you?" I hissed, narrowing my eyes.

"I see you and her, happy. I also see her and I being best friends, but that will only happen once you and her are happy together. You love her, you can't deny it, and I love her too. Well," she laughed, "I will love her."

"Alice, what are you trying to do to me? I want to be around her, but we can't ever be together. She's engaged, and more importantly, I will never be good enough for her. I am way too dangerous. I cannot put her in that danger. I just can't." I sighed.

"Well," Alice stood. "I'll be watching her. I want to keep her safe, just like you apparently. Bye Edward." Alice left the room and shut the door behind her quietly, subtly giving me time to myself to think.

I ran through our conversation once more in my head, thinking I was missing something. Then I got it.

I couldn't hear her thoughts.

That must be it. I found her interesting and intriguing because I could not rely on her thoughts to tell me about her. I was tempted to see her because she was something I had never experienced. Her expressions were fascinating to me because they were the only insight to her thoughts I could be provided with. It almost frustrated me. I wanted to know what she thought of me.

My thoughts were interrupted by Alice. She slammed the door against the wall. "Edward..." And she stopped talking, so I skipped to her thoughts.

Bella ran to the stern of the boat. She set her hands firmly on the railing and climbed, rung by rung, until she was squatting on the top, teeter-tottering on the edge.

"She's committing suicide." Alice confirmed.

I was so angry I couldn't speak. I ran to the stern, just in time to see Bella on the hanging on the outside of the boat.

"Bella!" I hoped that yelling her name would distract her just long enough for me to do something about her. She froze. I put my hands on her waist delicately, as if she were made of powder, and sat her on my shoulder, not sure what to do with her yet. I placed my hands firmly, but softly under her knees and flipped her to the ground gently, praying the impact was not hard and that she was not injured. Nonetheless, I knelt at her side and poked at her ribs to check whether or not they were broken. She lay still for a moment, deep in thought. Then she lifted her head, shook that luscious mahogany hair out of her eyes and searched until her eyes found my own.

"What are you?" She hissed, narrowing those beautiful chocolate eyes. I could not bear to stay there any longer. I knew I could hurt her so easily. I had to get away.

"A monster." And with that I left, hoping that my response scared her to the point of never wanting to see me again.

AN: I would really like some reviews for this chapter, since I found it the hardest to write.
