Jasper's Point of View

The house was almost as good as the one that had burned down. We had set it up quickly to surprise Bella when she got home from her hunt. She was even more pleased than I'd hoped, but also a little overwhelmed. I sat her down with her books to help her calm before her newborn brain could get seriously overwhelmed. I admit I patted myself on the back metaphorically at her reaction. Everyone was feeling proud of themselves.

I was so pleased that she was excited. It meant the world to me that I had pleased her after she had taken the burning of our house down so hard. It was traumatizing for her. She wasn't used to moving quickly from house to house. Eventually, she would become more comfortable having to rebuild the physical things around her quickly.

It was a difficult time for her. Newborns don't accept change easily and although Bella was better than most newborns.

Bella's Point of View

The new house was amazing and freshly fed I had the focus to enjoy it. Jasper and I watched a movie in the bedroom and then we all migrated to the living room. Emmett was playing video games and we all joined him. It was a fun way to release some tension while teasing Emmett and Peter.

When I had won two games in a row they wouldn't let me play anymore so I moved to Jasper's lap and he kissed the top of my head while I cuddled into him and he played. I bet on Jasper to win the next game but Rose won instead. Perhaps I should keep betting to a minimum as I had no money of my own.

That was something that I intended to remedy as soon as I could reliably control myself around humans. I had decided to go to school for teaching literature.

Jasper encouraged me to go ahead and start some classes online but I wanted the full college experience, including people around me. I'd wait until I could have the whole experience. After all, I had all the time in the world now to go to college and learn anything I wanted.

Time was a nice thing to have and Jasper and I took advantage of it as much as possible, never parted, just enjoying each other's company.

Another month passed and they began to take me on short trips into town. It was hard but not as impossible as I expected. By the end of a week I could bear to be around humans for a full hour. I even did a little clothes shopping for myself.

Charlotte's point of View

I liked this house better than the last. It was placed closer to a hunting ground for Peter and me.

Physically it was just as nice as the last and Jasper indulged Bella by filling the library with her favorite books. They were such a perfect couple. They were never really apart from each other and their faces showed such love and adoration. I hoped I looked at Peter that way. If I didn't I should.

Emmett and Peter got along better than even I could expect. Peter, who was normally a little prickly, enjoyed Emmett's competitive streak. They wrestled, played video games, even board games. Everything was turned into a competition. They entertained the entire family with their childlike enthusiasm for a competition.

Personally, I found Rose and Bella's company stimulating in different ways. Bella was always there if I needed to talk. She had a little competitive streak herself and challenged me to play in ways that I hadn't in years. Rose was good for shopping and more serious conversation. All together we had a great time the three of us when we could get Bella away from Jasper.

Emmets point of View

This new house was awesome and I had plans. Bella still had not gone tree climbing since becoming one of us. Once I had her convinced, she followed me through the trees, with Jasper watching close by, quicker than I expected. Her loud exclamations almost had me losing my handholds a few times. She moved faster than I did though and soon I was chasing her. The little newborn had actually gotten ahead of me. Once she reached the summit of the mountain, she stopped and I was able to catch up. She looked around us with undisguised wonder on her face. I decided to take her on little mini trips like this more often.

It was after one of these trips that Peter came in. His face was so serious. He called everyone into the dining room and we sat waiting.

Once everyone was seated he began to speak.

Peter's Point of View

I didn't want to do this. I didn't want to tell them but they deserved to know what I did. Some days I hated my gift.

"Danger is coming like nothing we've ever seen before. I can only think it must be the Volturi, the feeling is so strong."

The questions came fast and hard and as always I couldn't answer them. When, who, where, what do we do, what did we do? There are no answers with my gift.

"I don't know the answers to your questions I only know the danger is coming fast."

This started an entirely new round of questions that I couldn't answer. I looked at the Major, begging him with my eyes to help me.

"Calm down, everyone. This is most likely about Bella so any of you who want to leave can leave now and avoid what is coming."

"We aren't leaving you," Peter and Char said together.

"We're staying," Emmett said, but Rose looked too afraid. She was frozen and couldn't speak.

"Think about it and tell me later, for now, let's keep up perimeter runs just in case."
