back in Bella's point of view.

"Bella" Jamie called after me the following day. I stopped and turned as she trailed up. "Have you seen Edward today? He was supposed to pick me up this morning, but he never showed. I was lucky I caught the bus."

"Actually I haven't." I said confused. He would never leave her here alone when I was here would he?

"Oh, well there's Isabelle I'll catch you later." She said running off. By my daughter's expression and body language, she had no clue where he was. All day it bugged me I never got time by my self to actually make a continent search for him.

It wasn't any better at lunch. "So Jamie did you ever find out what happened to Edward?" I asked interested in what Isabelle told her.

"Yeah, he and the others are out of town. They went to visit their grandparents." She said disappointed. " I mean it's just like him." She started to say as Isabelle came up. "I'll tell you later" she finished as my daughter sat down. "So why didn't you go with the others?" Jamie asked her after she sat.

"I actually care about my education." Isabelle stated trying to convince Jamie. I tried pushing through her mind to see where they really where, but somehow she blocked it from me.

" Where are they?" I asked confronting her after lunch. She stopped and looked at me.

"It's none of your business, where they are." She said hateful, then walked away. Before she dies, I'm going to teach her a lesson. She will learn how to treat me; after all I am her mother.

When Jamie and I got to my house that night she pored her mined out. " Like I was saying earlier this is just like him. He always finds a reason to pick up and leave out of nowhere with out letting me know. Every time he does something like this I get no notice and then he's gone for weeks at a time. I'm getting tired of it. Then when he gets back he usually is silent for a day or two."

"Wow, you know I had a guy like that. He didn't do it that much but I always got notice." I said playing with the ring around my neck.

"Yeah, well that's what I get for being Ed's girl. He's always there for me though, yet at the same time he's distant from me." She said disappointed.

"I've learned many times that you have to let guys come around on their own, they only talk when they're ready. When they do it's usually hard to respond. Just give it time. He'll tell you all his thoughts soon enough." I said amazed at how concerned I sounded, almost believing my self. After a while of silence Jamie looked at me strangely as I fingered my ring. "Hey Bella, what's the meaning of that ring around your neck? It looks like it's an old engagement ring." She said out of know where. I looked at her wonderly. Why was she interested in my ring? The bad part was I still couldn't go into her thoughts because more of mine kept getting in the way.

" That's because it is an engagement ring." I stated to her.

" Who gave it to you?" She asked very interested. I dropped it gracefully before telling.

" My ex, he was supposed to be my true love. I married him, just like I said I would but after is were things went wrong. Guess I was too young. " I said closing my eyes.

" So what happened? Is that the reason you wear it around your neck?" She said with sadness on her face and in her voice.

" Look I don't like to talk about what happened, especially to someone I've only known for a day. But yes I wear it to remind me how he broke my heart and I will never travel down that road again. I refuse to look for love again. There's no point, in the end I'll end up alone anyway." I said picking it up again, then closing my eyes.

"Don't lose hope Bella you'll find someone again." She said, before putting her hand on mine. When she did I saw him, I new exactly where he was. My daughter new it, because I could sense her there. A horn honk broke my trance and I faded back into reality. "Oh, that's my mom. I'll talk to you tomorrow." She said grabbing her stuff.

"Kay, and maybe you're right. I'll give it a try." I said as she walked out the door and smiled back to show me that she heard. " Isabelle, I know you're here, show yourself." I said after Jamie was no longer in sight. She appeared from the living room and I smiled my evil smile. "What do you want?" I said trying to get into her mind as she blocked it off from me.

"Where's Edward? I know that you know where he is." She asked hatefully.

" So it's true. You don't know where he is. Well, you assume right. I do know where your father is, but I'm not going to tell you where he is. You see if I told you then I'd be helping my enemy, and I never do that. Besides the longer he's gone the better. Jamie seems to draw closer to me when her beloved isn't around. So therefore it will make it easier to gain her trust. You see with him gone I get my mission done that much quicker. So you'll have to find him on your own." I said glaring at her. Then I added rudely, angrily and threatening, "Get out of my house. If I catch you or any of the other Cullens in my house again you're going to lose some class mates and a your life." Before Isabelle left she spoke.

"I don't see how I could have ever felt sorry for you and wish you never left, when I was young. I didn't and don't need you. Your no mother of mine, and if you try and hurt my family more then you already have I will kill you and not think twice!"
