Chapter 20
When Bella returns home everyone is packing and getting ready to leave.
"Bella" said Edward taking her into a hug "I think you made the right decision at the moment."
"Thanks Edward" said Bella as she hugged him.
"Get a room" said Emmett laughing.
"Shut up Emmett" said Bella ad she smacked his arm.
"Edward is right though Bella" said Alice. "The Volturi are going to need us soon anyway….there's a Romanian Coven that hates the Volturi and I see them picking a fight with the Volturi soon."
"How soon?" asked Carlisle.
"About a week after we get there" said Edward. "Which means we have to be ready and we have to warn them."
"Well, if we are ready then I guess we can head out" said Esme.
"But I'm not packed" said Bella.
"Don't worry Bella" said Jasper "I packed for you."
"Thanks cowboy" said Bella and she kissed him. "How long will it take to get to Volterra?"
"I already called Aro and he said he would send Jane and Alec in their private jet to pick us up" said Carlisle. "It should take about a day in a half to get there and about six hours to get to the meeting point."
"Let's get going" said Alice.
So halfway to the meeting point, the Cullens tell Bella that they have a surprise for her.
"Bella, since we are leaving we thought it would be good for you to have a new identity and to be honest, we had to tell everyone in forks that you were dead." Said Carlisle.
"So I'm no longer Isabella Swan?" said Bella.
"No you are now Isabella Cullen." Said Esme.
"So how did y'all fake my death?" asked Bella.
"It was really hard on Charlie when he found out but we told everyone that you were out walking, you tripped and a bear attacked you" said Alice.
"Yeah that sounds like it could really happen to me" said Bella.
"We are here" said Alice.
"Hello Isabella" said Alec taking her hand and kissing it then pulling her into a hug.
"That's enough don't you think Alec" said Jasper.
"My apologies" said Alec letting go of Bella. "She is just so breath taking."
That made Jasper growl.
"I mean no harm" laughed Alec as he led the Cullen Clan to the plane.
To Bella, it was a long flight. All she could think about was having to leave her old life behind. Although she was excited to be starting a new life, she was sad to see her old one fade away. Bella went into a depressed state on the plane and he shield came out.
"Bella, what's wrong?" asked Edward as he stood outside Bella's shield.
All she did was look up and let him into her shield. Once inside, he was able to communicate with her through thoughts. So talking mentally no one would be able to know anything.
"Bella, what's wrong?" thought Edward.
"Everything" thought Bella.
"Where do you wanna start?" said Edward.
"Let's start with Jasper" said Bella.
Alice noticed Bella had her shield up and that she had Edward in there. Then everyone else started noticing.
"Hey, what gives?" asked Alice looking mad.
"Bella wanted to talk, so she let me into her bubble so we can talk mentally without anyone hearing anything." Said Edward.
"Bella, darling why didn't you just let me in so you can talk to me?" asked Jasper
"Because it's about you" said Bella and then her and Edward went on with their mental conversation.
"What about Jasper?" asked Edward.
"I know he loves me and all, but where exactly are me and Jasper going?" asked Bella.
"What do you mean?" asked Edward.
"I know Jasper and I are mates but we've been together for what seems to be a long time now and I wanna take things to the next level but I feel like he doesn't…like at all." Said Bella sadly.
Jasper picked up on her mood.
"Bella, please talk to me" said Jasper.
"Jazz, just leave her alone" said Edward.
And Jasper went to go talk to the rest of the family.
"Bella, I know for a fact that Jasper does indeed feel the same way…Alice has already had a vision about the two of you getting married." Said Edward.
"Do you know when?" asked Bella.
"Not quite, but I know he wants to marry you. I mean after all, you are stunningly beautiful, your smart, and you have a different outlook on life that is just so carefree and beautiful." Said Edward.
"Thanks Edward" said Bella and she reached over and hugged him. "You always know how to make me feel better."
"Anytime love" said Edward.
So as the plane landed, they all got off and got into two cars. Bella and Edward split from Jasper and Alice so they could continue talking and as they were the first to get into the car, all eyes were on them.
