Emmett POV:

I was sure I misheard her, how was it possible? Why wouldn't she tell me or at least want me by her side as she went through whatever the process was, was it painful... scary? Is she only calling me now because she's in trouble... did she even want me anymore now that she was human?

I've spent most of my eternal life playing video games and having sex, avoiding anything too serious, not because I wasn't capable of deeper shit but I didn't see the point of moping for eternity. I know Rose never wanted this life but I thought finding me at least made it bearable... but she left me behind the second she got a chance to get what she wanted.

I was hurt, and I couldn't make a dumb joke or have wild crazy sex to snap myself out of it. it was horrible, is this what Eddie felt like all the time? how had he not just killed himself yet?

I could feel Jasper trying to left my spirits and I sent him a thankful smile.

"Don't go jumping to conclusions we don't know anything for sure yet," Alice tried to tell me but my mate left me, we all saw how hard it was for Bella and Edward to have a relationship when one was a vampire and the other human, she didn't even discuss it with me which meant it didn't matter to her what I thought or what it would do to us.

Emily POV:

I snuck out of the house, maybe not the smartest move but I needed to find Bellamy. She was there for both me and Sam when we needed help and I needed to find her and help her, let her know she wasn't alone. I know she had Embry but I can understand how overwhelming the imprint bond can be when you aren't ready to accept it, or even just accept yourself.

I was walking through the woods with this pathetic little flashlight and calling out for her, yup pretty sure this is where I am going to die. I hear chattering, I looked around trying to find where it was coming from, praying the source was human... a friendly non violent human.

"Look up." my eyes immediately went up, she was in a tree shivering.

"What are you doing up there, come down."

no response... guess I'm climbing a tree.

I was never much of a tomboy, by the time I got up to her I was a dirty sweaty mess. So I didn't try to be sweet and understanding which was my original plan, I just went for telling it like it is so I could get the hell out of here and back to my warm bed with my warmer man.

"You're being dumb." that got her attention, her eyes snapped to me,

"What?"

"You are being dumb! do you want to be like your sister or mother, hell even like Rosalie?"

"What are you talking about." She asked confused.

"They focused on one thing, blocking out everything else and torpedoed their lives, is that what you want? You mom got freaked out and broke up her family to run away, and now she is completely unhinged. Your sister literally gave her life for a boy, forgetting about you and Charlie, Rosalie ditched her mate to get what she wanted and now she is running somewhere scared alone and bleeding. Running doesn't work! it's weak and foolish, two things YOU are not. You have me and all the guys, you have Embry... and whatever is going on between you Dad and you, he will come around. But acting like this will not help, so please can we get down?"

Bellamy POV:

I thought about what Emily said, she was right in each of their lives, Bella Renee and Rosalie, there was a defining moment... a choice, and they all chose selfishly, shortsidedly. I knew what my first reaction was, it was to kill, to get revenge, to essentially burn down my life. I was forgetting about the people in my life that would suffer if I went off the rails. Life is hard and so confusing but giving in to these emotions out of guilt or grief or anger, it would blind me to all the good I could still have in my life. I looked at Emily, she could have ran after Sam attacked her, after she lost the relationship she had with her cousin, everyone thinking she was a home wrecker, it would have been understandable but she didn't. She was brave and faced her problems head on and look at her now... I realized, I wanted that more than vengeance, I wanted to be happy, I wanted Embry.

"Yeah, let's go home."
