Hey, sorry I wanted to update last night but I had a health project…..yeah. But, I want at least one review just a 'hey kewl story' or a 'um…. You should change this….' Or 'please make longer chapters' well you get the point so please review. ~*~FreaksLikeVampiresAreCooler-14~*~
EPOV-Edward
Why did Victoria have to ruin this? She walked right up to me and Bella.
BPOV-Bella
I felt Edward stiffen. I was scared that he didn't love me. What if he was lying? Then, I noticed Victoria.
"Aww….how cute! You two are together-Bella what did I tell you? Long time no see. Maybe I can kill Edward to avenge James. That would work for you Bella right?"
Just because he might not love me didn't mean that I didn't love him. But Victoria was right-she had once told me that I was just a pet to the Cullens. A worthless experiment on if they could be around me without killing me. I pushed away from Edward, then I stood next Victoria.
"You are right, but not about the avenge thing. About what you told me last time we saw each other." She smiled and led me to the middle of the dance floor and then she said that I was good that I had finally listened to her. She also wanted to avenge James and said it was Edward's life or mine.
"Mine. I still love him and you won't kill him Victoria." Dylan pulled me outside and put me into the passenger seat of my car. All the Cullens and Scarlie (Scarlett) and Max got into their assigned cars and we drove off. Edward tried to talk to me.
"What was that all about, Iz? Why did you go talk to her?"
"Edward, please just shut up-okay for once please!"
Silence was all I heard, everyone but Dylan was staring about me. He knew how I was when I wasn't calm, he knew to just let me sort it out alone. Pretty soon we were in the castle, I guess Dylan brought in here. Was I really that dazed? Oh no! The ball is tomorrow night and guests would be arriving until 5 pm. It was 11 pm so I had less than 24 hours to pull myself together. Aro would be announcing my ruler ship as Princess of the vampires-that is how he said it. And I had to be engaged to someone that Aro could approve of before my carnation (crowning-officially princess). WOW! I was in deep.
My fiancé would have to become Volturi or we would never be together.
------NEXT DAY------Bella gets proposed to!!!! (Possibly engaged)------
Dylan brought me up to my room, typed in my code and set me down on my bed and he turned on the TV and handed me my iPod. Run by Rex Goudie started playing through the earphones. That is when I noticed that Edward and Dylan were talking-not out loud moist likely using Dylan's power. I went into my bathroom, shut the door, turned on the shower, stripped down and got in. my iPod was in its dock still playing. As soon as I was finished with my shower I walked into my adjoined walk-in closet. I picked out a pair of jeans and a baby blue tank top with my black Vans. I walked right past Edward and Dylan, iPod in hand to the forest-might as well hunt. Esme walked up to me. "Are you going hunting Bella? Because I would love to come, I am quite thirsty." "I would love it if you came Esme." I smiled at her and we took off running. We when were filled, we talked. "So, who is the leading guy in your life Bella?" (A/N she is allowing Esme to call her Bella because she didn't want to be reminded of the Cullens-now she is kewl with it)
"Well, I don't know- I care for Edward but I can't just forget what happened. Dylan likes me and he is a good buddy but I can't love anyone besides Edward. Can I tell you a secret? Only the Volturi know this and it will be announced tonight at the ball." She nodded so I continued. "Well, I have to be engaged to be crowned. But, that guy has to be or become part of the Volturi, and Aro has to approve-which means that if he thinks I will run away with the guy, away from Volterra then I can't marry him." She waited before replying. "Choose Edward-he really loves you and he will stay if you allow him to. It took everything, he had to tell himself that it was for you and he had to put you first, that is how he was able to tell you that he was leaving. He loves you so much that he will put your happiness before his own. Of course he didn't really leave you happy now did he?" "No, I even put myself in danger just to hear his voice-it sounded like he cared about me when I hallucinated his voice. Once I became a vampire that disappeared though."
"Okay well, you need to decide, will you love him enough to move on with him by your side for eternity, or will you somehow be strong enough to envelope your heart to prevent it from breaking? He will never break your heart again Bella."
"How can I just trust him? I would never lie to him, but he lied to me-the worst of lies too."
"I don't know but it is your decision. We should go back, I am sure Aro wants to introduce you to someone."
"Okay, thanks Esme. I don't think anyone else would have understood like you did." "Alice, Jasper, Carlisle, Emmett, and even Rosalie would have understood. It would be difficult to have that conversation with Edward, you both would be dry sobbing by the end."
"Yeah, I should hang out with Alice-did you say Rose would? I thought she didn't like me."
"Well, she was jealous of your humanity and the fact that you wanted to give up your life for immortality. But, she has missed you."
"Oh, okay well I will see you tonight, thanks again." I walked to the throne room and the Cullens and my old coven were talking! "Bella! Oh My Gosh it's been forever!" I should probably mention that Jessica Stanley was a vampire-her and Mike Newton. They were my old coven. Just them, imagine living 10 years like that. *shivers mentally* "Hey Jess, Mike. I have to go get ready-SCARLETT MEET ME IN MY ROOM!!!!" See if you yell than any vampire in the castle can hear you. Edward and Dylan followed me out of the room. Dylan could tell I needed a hug, so he just came right up and hugged me. Edward looked at him enviously. Dylan went to walk away and Edward came up, real close and said "See you tonight, Bella love." His breath ran all over my face and then he pecked me on the cheek, and walked away very dramatically. Now Dylan was the envious one. I ran up to my room.
"Hey, what took you so long?"
"Edward, sorry Scarlie!" Alice, Rosalie, Scarlie and me watched movies all day long and talked. It was the most fun I had ever had.
Pretty soon they started to work on my appearance and Alice worked on my makeup and pulled out my new dress and Rosalie worked on my hair. They all got ready and we were ready to go to the ball-which started in half a hour. So we headed down to the ballroom.
EPOV-Edward
Dylan was thinking some…. Gross things about him and MY Bella while he was hugging her. Well, she wasn't mine but soon enough she would be. So I decided to dazzle her. I went up to her really close and said "See you tonight Bella love." My breath spread across her face as she stared at me stunned my seductive voice. I walked away dramatically leaving a ragingly jealous Dylan and a dazzled Bella. I decided to hang out with Max, Emmett, and Jasper. Max, and Jasper wanted to play Guitar hero so me and Emmett joined in. Pretty soon, we had to get ready. Dylan was escorting Bella, sadly. We were all dressed sharply in our tuxes.
The ball just started and the Volturi walked out. Aro had a speech to make, about Bella.
"This is to all of you single vampires out there. Sorry but Bella only likes guys so you guys may compete in different activities, you may just win Princess Isabella's heart although she may be taken within mere minutes." I will win, hopefully. But, she loves me right?
"Dylan, would like to say something. Dylan."
"Hello to all of you, I am part of the vegetarian installment of the Volturi. I wanted to ask Bella something, so Bella can you come here?" Bella looked scared to death, everyone knew what he was about to ask.
"Bella, I have had feelings for you since I met you. You are the greatest girl that I have ever met. Bella, will you marry me?"
"I uh….um…..I."
"Bella, answer him." Aro-shut up!
BPOV-Bella
I knew Aro wanted me to say yes but what was I to do-I love Edward, Dylan is just a friend. What about what Esme said? I had to side with Esme, even though Aro would punish me severely for this.
"No, I am sorry Dylan. I can't marry you, I love Edward." Everyone gasped. Edward looked thrilled.
"Bella. My. Office. NOW!" oh no, Aro is about to explode.
"Of course, Aro." I ran there.
" Bella, I told you to agree to him! I don't want you to see Edward anymore. ESPECIALLY UNSUPERVISED BY DYLAN!!!! And you will agree to Dylan or it will be your death or disturbing order in the Volturi!"
"Never-over my dead body! I won't marry Dylan. Kill me or let me marry Edward and leave Volterra!"
"Fine, I won't threaten your life. Marry Dylan or EDWARD is killed for interfering with order in the Volturi."
"No! You wouldn't!" I couldn't stand even thinking about Edward being dead!
"Oh yes, I would. Dylan or a dead Edward?"
"Dy-d-d-dylan. Let Edward live." I started to dry sob but got control of myself. We went back to the ballroom.
"Did you all enjoy our little joke? Dylan please let us do this the right way now." Joke? Dylan's question combined with my forced answer would be the death of Edward and me, and our love. This was my death sentence that I was forced to accept. I hate Aro!!!!!!
"Bella, will you marry me?"
"Yes, I will." It took every thing I had to keep a calm face and to not look at Edward, my love, the only one I would truly say yes to if he proposed to me. Dylan slid the engagement ring on and kissed me on the lips. A slow song began and Dylan led us to the middle of the floor, right next to Edward and pulled me into a very close position and we danced. Edward looked like I just electrocuted him, which I did and I electrocuted myself. I hurt him the both of us more than he ever had or could. But I couldn't watch him die.
ONE REVIEW AND I WILL UPDATE ASAP!!!!!!!
