In the time after healing Emily and Sam taking off it was like a tornado had torn through Sam's house leaving everyone effected in its wake.
Bellamy was passed out on Sam's couch recuperating from such a large and intricate spell, Sue was freaking out to Old Quill and her husband, Harry, tying to understand what the hell just happened, and Jared was sitting watch over Emily who had fallen asleep, exhausted over the day's events.
Over the coming weeks a dark cloud hung over the people of La Push with Sam's absence. Paul Lahote joined the pack... if you could even still call it that. And Harry had taken a more involved leadership position since the boys where without an Alpha.
The only good thing to happen was Jared finding his imprint, in a sweet girl named Kim, but even that was bittersweet knowing first hand what both Sam and Emily where going with out. If even he had to be apart from her for a night to run patrol it hurt his soul, he couldn't imagine being away from her for weeks... The thought alone was two painful.
Emily, while finally fully healed was acting like a zombie, just shuffling from place to place with out any joy or life in her. And it didn't help that Leah was convinced Sam wouldn't have taken off without telling her and was trying to convince people to treat his absence as a missing persons case, hanging up posters and everything.
Bellamy tried to help when she could but now she had a more pressing problem. Her sister was dating one of them, she found out one night when she heard them talking in her room. She was absolutely livid and at the same time heartbroken that Bella had gone behind her back.
"Oh... I'm... oh."
Bellamy hears her sister stuttering a bit but is about to ignore it and go up the ladder to bed when she hears,
"I'm stronger than I thought." Edward.
"Wish I could say the same."
Bellamy kicks the door open startling the two
"So do I. What the hell is going on here?" She demands to know.
"Bellamy, I uhh can explain." Bella says.
"oh really can you? Because I would love to be assured that while I have been run ragged trying to keep everything together down at La Push you haven't been carrying on with the one who's fault it is those boys and their families are suffering!"
"I'm sorry I don't know what your talking about, what's going down in La Push?" Bella asks
"oh what, Edward didn't tell you? Because I know he knows, I told Carlisle myself that day you were in the hospital."
"I didn't think that was anything for her to worry about." Edward says trying to deflect Bellamy's harsh gaze away from her sister. But when she turns her hard stare on Edward he falls to his knees grabbing his head in pain.
"No, no stop, don't hurt him, please." Bella begs her sister.
"Well isn't that sweet she's worried about me hurting you."
"Look I know your upset and I am sorry I didn't tell you but I care about Edward and I want to be with him, please understand I have never felt this way about anyone. I can't give him up." Bella pleads to her sister.
"You knowingly invited a vampire into our home, you risk you life everytime you go near one of them and after seeing Dad and I falling apart at the hospital and me confiding in you how much you mean to me, and how inconsolable I would be if something happened to you, you disregarded it all to act out some tragic Romeo and Juliet love story with a monster?!"
"HE IS NOT A MONSTER!"
"Oh really? So your going to live happily ever after together? Get married have some kids? You age, Bella, and he is in pain every second he is not feeding on your blood. How do you realistically think this is going to end. Let answer that for you since clearly your teenage hormones has impaired your ability for critically thinking. You will die, Bella, the longer you are in his world the more certain it is that will be your fate... or worse you'll end up like one of them."
"Well maybe that's what want." Bella spits out shocking both her sister and Edward.
"You can't mean that." Bellamy says softly
"Bella your sister is right, even I wouldn't want that for you, this what my family and I are... it's a curse."
"Well then maybe we can find a way to undo it, you (Bellamy) told me it was a witch that created vampires, right? So maybe you can find a way to change them back?"
An eerie silence befalls the room. And a heartbroken expression falls over Bellamy's face.
But on the other side of the room and intrigued and hopeful one crosses Edwards.
"You told him about me? About our history? That was sacred knowledge... you betrayed me." Bellamy whispers out tears starting to fall from her eyes.
"No! No it wasn't like that I swear." Bella tried to convince her sister hating how broken she looks.
"I don't believe you. And I no longer trust you."
Bellamy leaves stunning Bella.
"She hates me."
"No, of corse she doesn't, she just needs some time to cool down, it'll be okay." Edward says trying to comfort her.
That night as he lays next to Bella as she sleeps he can't help but ponder what Bella said to her sister. A way to undo our curse? Could it be possible?
