Disclaimer: I don't own the Twilight characters or anything Twilight associated, but if I did I would be very happy.

This is going to be APOV while they left Edward and Bella, and I chose to do this before the hunting scene because it plays a role later. It is needed to set up what happens later in the story.

Thanks to everyone who adding this to their Favorites and alerts, and Thank you to my reviewers. Oh, and sorry for any typos I just typed it now, and I have no beta.

Chapter 8 APOV

I left them to be alone together knowing what would happen, but I still couldn't help myself. I winked at Edward as I shut the door and starting singing Baby Got Back in my head to keep Edward from seeing my vision.

He was going to be a happy man tonight.

I told Carlisle that we needed to go hunt, and he looked at me with questions on his face. I know he was concerned, Bella had just woken up, wouldn't she be thirsty. I shook my head at him, and told him, "Later Carlisle, now let's go hunt."

We weren't far away when the moaning started. Carlisle stopped suddenly and turned around looking back at the house.

"Thank you Alice, I wouldn't have..." "Please Carlisle, just be happy you don't have to actually see it." I smiled tapping my head again, and he laughed. "I mean they are two beautiful people, but I still see them as my brother and sister."

"You know Alice, I am really happy I don't have your gift." I smiled at him, and then we heard Bella scream out Edward's name, and I suggested that we get moving again. He agreed.

We started running deeper into the woods, and then spoke. "Doesn't Bella want to drink?"

"I told you Carlisle. Bella is different, and one of the things that make her that way is her blood lust. She will drink it, and she does want it, but it isn't as extreme as it is for the rest of us. She is in total control of herself from what I can see so far."

He seemed a little surprised, but then nodded his head as if he was justifying his own thoughts. "Bella always was different, I suppose. Even as I human." "

"Yes, she was Carlisle."

"Why did you want to go hunt, Alice?"

"Oh, sorry I didn't tell you, but rather than hunting I was hoping we could attend Bella's funeral. You know pay our respects to Charlie, he was such a good man, and now he is childless."

Carlisle smiled at me."You're right, even though we left, it would be extremely rude of us to not show up in this tragic time for Bella's family. Charlie was a good and caring man."

We ran to where the funeral was being held at, and stopped about a block away, to adjust our clothes. We didn't have a car so we were going to say that a taxi had dropped us off from the airport. We had come as soon as we heard the news.

We slowed to a human pace, and started walking up to the funeral parlor appearing as sad as we could, but then I wrinkled my nose up in disgust and looked at Carlisle who appeared undisturbed.

"Dogs, they're here." I muttered to Carlisle. He nodded and kept walking, "We'll avoid them, and deal with it later Alice. We are all here for Charlie right now."

I wanted to growl. What if they were at the area and picked up our scents. If we were to close to them, then they would link us to the scent. I can't see the future when these mutts get involved.

"Carlisle, our scent..." "I know Alice, just act like you're sad, and we will leave quickly. If we go now, it will appear to obvious." I stifled a growl as we walked in, and I was blasted with the foul scent of the dogs.

They smelled us too apparently because the 4 that were there all whipped their heads into our direction, and wrinkled their noses.

A tall muscled one with long hair, Jacob, I recognized from when he danced with Bella at prom approached his friends, and gestured for them to stop. They gave him cold glares.

"For Charlie and Bella." was all he muttered to them, and walked away.

We swiftly ignored them, and rushed to the casket that was in the front of the room. I knew it was empty, but still. It was heartbreaking to see the sadness here. Bella's casket was a smooth oak finish, and it was surrounded with red roses and white lilies. Then all around the room, there were pictures of Bella. Bella with Charlie, Bella with Renee, and Phil. Bella as a baby, and every stage of her life up until now. There were a few of Bella and Jacob and other kids from Forks and Arizona, and then to my surprise, there was a picture of Bella and Edward on their prom date.

I stopped short, taking that in. Charlie had hated the way we left Bella, and he mostly hated Edward, but there was a picture of the two of them. I couldn't help but smile softly realizing that Charlie could never have begrudged Bella her happiness with Edward. I nudged Carlisle, and showed him.

He smiled. "See Alice. Charlie is a very good man."

It seemed like all of Forks had showed up to pay their respects to Bella and her family. The room was packed with kids from Forks High, and their parents, and other people who just lived their lives in this small town.

The most heartbreaking scene of all was Charlie. He was holding Renee, who was sobbing uncontrollably in his arms, and while a few tears were lingering on his cheeks, and his eyes were glassed over, you could see that he was trying to be strong.

Charlie was an honorable man, and he took being Police Chief seriously. He would not break down in front of all of these people even though he knew that they wouldn't care. He, like Bella, had too much pride to show just how sad he really was.

"Phil!" Renee exclaimed and rushed to him. They embraced each other, and cried in each others arms. At least she had him.

Now was our opportunity to see Charlie, and give our condolences. We approached him in the middle of the room. He was alone now, and just staring at Bella's empty casket.

"Charlie." Carlisle said softly. He looked at us blankly for a second, and I wanted to cry. He looked so heartbroken.

I couldn't help myself. I throw my arms gently around Charlie and hugged him. "I am so sorry for your loss Charlie... I really am, I loved Bella she was my best friend." I shook gently in his arms, and he hugged me then, "I know you cared about her Alice. She loved you very much. Shh Alice, it's okay at least she is at peace now."

Carlisle patted his shoulder. "We came as soon as the news reached us. We were the only two that could manage to leave, but you have all of our apologies Charlie, and if you need anything please feel free to call."

I felt Charlie nod at Carlisle as he thanked him for coming, and that he understood.

I pulled away from Charlie then wiping away my fake tears before Charlie could notice that there had never really been any. I knew Bella was okay, more than okay from the way my vision had her and Edward all over each other moaning and groaning, but this was still so sad.

There was no denying the pain that filled this little room. An entire town was here to mourn the loss of Bella Swan.

We talked for a little while more, and then we decided to leave not wanting to overstay our welcome. The tension was growing between the wolves and us, and I didn't want them to pay attention to our scents.

We did not need them coming after us if they linked us to the location of Bella's death.

It was time to go, so we said our goodbyes to Charlie and Renee, and left to go back home. It was about 8 and our flight left at 7 tomorrow morning. This would be the last time we saw Forks for a long time, so we took our time going home remembering the place that we had come to love as a home.

Leaving was always the worst part. I could never get used to being so happy in one place, and then moving on to the next just like that, but this time Edward had Bella, and that mean I had my best friend back.

We heard the quiet breathing of them together, and I knew that they were done. I heard Bella giggle then, and I rushed up to the stairs, but not before another vision of Edward pinning her up against a wall and taking her again popped into my head.

I shook my head vigorously wanting the image out of my mind, and yelled for Bella to get ready before I charged in. I wanted to see my best friend. He had forever to keep screwing her. Jeesh, couldn't he let me have her for a little while.

I opened the door as soon as I head the sweater pull over her, and hugged her fiercely. I was so happy.

Oh Edward, Carlisle is quite upset that you have engaged in premarital sex by the way.

Carlisle was very religious. His beliefs played a huge role in why we are the way we are when it comes to our lifestyle and food choices.

I couldn't help myself from teasing him just a little bit. He was still my brother, and he had been a virgin for like 100 years so some teasing was in order. Besides I would never be as brutal as Emmett would be when he learned that they had done the deed.

He quickly went to smack me on the head, but I dodged him sticking my tongue out at him. Told you that you'd appreciate the robe.

There went his hand again. I would have to be more careful, he was getting closer.

Bella was concerned about leaving, and Charlie, but I explained to her and Edward. I saw Edward smile as he saw the picture of the two of them in my head at the funeral. He was happy that Charlie seemed to have accepted their relationship with that small gesture.

Then I saw us going hunting, and I became excited. Bella was going to be good at this.

A/N: Yay on to the next chapter which is already written, and just has to be typed, but that doesn't take me long. So I want some reviews. If I get up to 16 then I will post the next chapter. It is going to be the hunting chapter, and a little bit of something else. ;)

My fiancée thinks I love writing more than him lol, but that is just not true. So please pretty please REVIEW because otherwise I feel really dumb constantly updating if nobody likes this.

Thanks

Mary
