Edward's POV

I had to keep myself as calm as possible as I drove home. I'm stupid. Why couldn't I just keep my mouth shut? No, I had to go and make my one meaning of existence put out with me. Who knows where she is now. Probably in La Push with the dog. I growled at the thought of that.

I burst into my house and found Alice upstairs. "Where is she?" I demanded.

"Chill Edward," she snapped at me, "In a library somewhere. I think Port Angeles or Seattle. She's safe and should be driving home soon." I let out a sigh of relief.

"You really shouldn't have said that," Alice said softly.

"Yeah, don't you think I get enough of that from myself?" I snapped back at her.

I went up stairs to my bedroom and fell face first onto my black leather couch. Her scent was very faint on the couch from the last time she'd been here. I could also smell her sweet scent lingering on my clothes. How could I've been so stupid? At least she wasn't with the wolf; I found some comfort in that.

I lifted my head from the couch cushion and glanced at the picture on the table. It was one from prom, one of many that Esme had taken that night. Bella was smiling sheepishly her cheeks aglow with red from embarrassment. I wasn't looking at the camera; I was looking down at her because she'd just said something before Esme snapped another picture.

I heard Alice's frantic and erratic thoughts as she rushed into my bedroom. "I can't see! I can't see!" she screamed and on cue, Jasper was behind her. "She's gone! I can't see her Edward!"

My heart turned cold and I almost felt nauseous. "What?" I whispered.

"She's still alive, I know that. Don't ask me how I know, I just do. But, I can't see her. I can't see anything that has to do with Bella. Not Charlie or Renee or anything!"

Carlisle appeared, "What's going on?" he asked, calm as always. I envied his calm because right now I was having a panic attack. Can vampires even have panic attacks?

"Bella's missing," Jasper said, setting the room with calm. I could tell that my panic was affecting him.

"We can figure this out. Where was the last place she was?" Carlisle asked.

"Seattle or Port Angeles. Maybe even Olympia. We're not sure." Alice said closing her eyes trying to concentrate.

"She got into a fight with Charlie and then I was stupid enough to make it worse and now she is angry with me. She stormed out of her house." I said.

"You're too hard on yourself son. Don't worry we'll find her. Bella is a part of our family and we protect our family."

Two days later.

Edward's POV

I sat on the couch in the living room. Emmett had the television going but I didn't hear or see it. I was caught up in my own tormenting thoughts. Not one sign, nor vision, nor scent of Bella in days. Yet Alice continued to insist that she was still alive. If I didn't know better I'd say she was lying just to make me feel better.

Carlisle walked in, home from work, and kissed Esme on the cheek. I stood and went to him. I was planning on going out with him and Alice to look some more. Charlie already had tons of search parties out including the Quileutes. I had yet to talk to Jacob about what was going on but I know I'd have to eventually.

"Carlisle," I said, "I thought we'd look near Seattle." I prayed she hadn't gone there. Alice has had visions of Victoria there.

"Son, I can't look tonight, I'm on call. Besides, you and Alice need to hunt." He said. I sighed and nodded. I didn't argue with Carlisle and he had a point. I went to the backdoor.

I found a herd of pass deer and drank till I was full. I ran from the trees and back into Forks. I went to Bella's, though it was obvious she wasn't there, but staying in her bedroom comforted me. I climbed up the side of the wall and through her bedroom window which had remained open these past few days. Her room was covered in her scent. The room was dark and cold. I could almost see Bella lying in bed sleeping.

I heard Charlie on the phone down stairs. "Well, she's about 5'4, brown hair, big brown eyes, and pale skin. I think she was wearing jeans, a red blouse, and a gray jacket."

"How old did you say she was?" He was talking to a Chief of Police in Olympia.

"She just turned eighteen." Charlie said.

"Where do you think she went?" the Chief asked.

"Well, we got into a fight and she stormed out."

"Is it possible that she's runaway?" he asked.

Charlie froze. A million and one thoughts rushed through his head. "Well she has before but I don't think..."

"Chief Swan, I think that she's a runaway. I'll have some guys search here but if she's found and she has run away we're not going to force her to go home. She's eighteen; an adult."

"Thank you, but if you do fine her will you let me know?" Charlie said.

"Of course. Have a good day Chief." Charlie hung up, and grumbled to himself about having a good day when your own daughter is missing.

The house phone rang and Charlie picked it up. It was Renee. He hadn't told her yet and was planning on doing it now. I slipped out Bella's room not wanting hear her reaction.

Where are you Bella?

Bella's POV

I liked them. All three of them. I'd only been here about two days, and they were so kind to me. They'd given me food, a bed, and some of Linda's clothes, we were the same size. The only thing I knew that belonged to me was the jeans, red shirt and gray jacket. Which they had washed and put into a dresser, except the jacket. I wouldn't let them wash it. it smelt too good and familiar.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Olivia poked her blonde head inside. "Hey Jane Doe." She called me that cause I didn't have a name. She came in and joined me on the bed. "So I was thinking..."

"Uh huh?"

"We should give you a real name! You need one! Jane Doe doesn't suit you." She started to bounce up and down.

"Oh, okay." I paused, "Well what do I look like?" I'd already memorized what I looked like. Long brown hair, brown eyes, ivory skinned, thin. Nothing special. Only thing that made me stand out was how incredibly clumsy I was. I could hardly walk down the hall without tripping.

"Hmmm..." she examined me, "how about... Elizabeth? We could call you Lizzie!" she smiled. How could I say no to this adorable thing?

"I like it." I said. She smiled.

"It's nice to meet you, Lizzie." She held out her hand. I shook it and replied, "you too, Olivia."

We laughed.
