I don't own the characters of twilight or the Mortal Instruments. I just own the characters that I have created :) Well with that said I will leave ya'll to the chapter. Enjoy!
BELLA'S POV
Previous chapter:
I sighed. "You're right. Just wait until I am out of the room. I don't want to see him lying there lifeless." I said.
Carlisle nodded.
"Don't worry Bella. He will stop suffering soon." Carlisle said.
"Thank you Carlisle. I'll go and let Sue know." I said.
Carlisle nodded again.
I really didn't want to imagine it, but the image came by itself while I walked down the stairs. My father's body all white, lying on his bed lifeless, without a pulse.
I found Sue in the living room.
Sue got up when she saw me, but when she saw my face she started to cry.
I guess she knew by my expression. "Sue I'm sorry. I wish that I could have help him, but there was nothing we could do." I told her.
"Don't worry Bella. I'm sure that he is in a better place now." She said.
I nodded and sighed. My eyes burned and at this moment I wish I could be able to cry. "Yes I think that's what counts. I'll tell Alice to take care of the funeral arrangements."
A set of footsteps were heard in the stairs.
Edward came into the living room. "Bella...he has left." Edward said.
I nodded.
He came to hug me.
I started to sob. I didn't get to spend that much time with my father, but I had learned to love him. My life was going to be different without him. "Edward, I'm going to need Alice to take her of the funeral."
As soon as I said her name she was there in the living room.
"I'm sorry Bella. I know how much you loved your father."
I nodded. "Thank you Alice. Listen I need you to take care of the funeral. I can't go. I'm going to hunt but I'm not going to be back until after the funeral. " I said.
Alice nodded. "Take your time Bella."
"Do you want me to come with you?" Edward asked.
I shook my head. "No. I want to be alone." I told him.
He nodded.
I got out of my father's house and got in my car. I didn't know where I could go for three days. So I decided to go to the Cullen's house. I got off the car, and went behind the house. I took off running. I went to hunt. I spent three hours in the forest, just walking. I just wanted my mind to be free. I didn't wanted to think.
When I started to think I ran back to the house and got in my car. I decided to go to New York just because I wanted to drive. But by the time I made it there I missed my daughter, and my family. I decided to go back, but when I was in Phoenix I decided to visit my mother. It was better than to think of my father's death.
My mother had come to visit us when we still lived in Forks a year ago. She had come to tell me that she was pregnant. She had the baby a few months ago, so I thought it would be the perfect time to meet my baby brother.
When she went to visit, Alice had not seen it. She really had surprised us. I didn't even get a "heads up" from Alice. She was on vacation with Jasper since they had gotten married again. I did not even know that my mother was in the house until Renesmee called me 'momma' and I heard her gasp.
"Bella?" My mother said.
I decided to kind of tell her the truth.
"Bella is that you?" She said.
"Hey mom." I said.
"You look different. I mean is not like you don't look good, but I can nearly recognize you."
"Yea I know. When I was on the med, I had to change a little."
"Well at least you look happy."
I nodded. "Mom I want you to meet Renesmee. She is my daughter." I said
Her eyes widened when she saw Renesmee.
I knew what she was seeing. The same chocolate brown eyes that had been mine, and that were Charlie's. The same curls that Charlie had. The skin color, and hair color as Edward.
"She's your daughter? But you got married three years ago. How can she be this old and mature?"
"Mom relax. Edward and I adopted her. She's Edward's niece. Her parents passed away in a car accident. She didn't have anywhere else to go."
I heard hear heart beat slow down. "Well she is a beauty. She even looks better than you when you were growing up."
"I know. That told me that. So what are you doing here? I mean you have never liked the cold weather. Especially when it rains."
"I just came to tell you the good news. Look at me. Do you see something different?"
"No. Mom what is going on?"
"Bella I'm pregnant! Can you believe it?! Almost twenty one year's! I'm having a baby! It's almost impossible at my age."
"Wow. Mom congratulations! What did Phil think?"
"He is really happy. So why are you packing?"
"We're leaving to Alaska. We are going to be attending college over there. Carlisle got offered a job that is a better opportunity than the one here. Em and Rose have a house over there already. So we are all leaving."
"Well that's good honey. What did Charlie say?"
"He is really happy that I'm going to college but he says that he is going to miss Renesmee."
"So when are you leaving?"
"Tomorrow. College starts in four days."
"Where did Renesmee go? I want to say goodbye. I'm leaving tonight."
"I'll go get her."
She nodded.
I brought Renesmee to her because that was all my mother would get. A hug. Then we wouldn't be able to see her again.
"Nessie come and tell grandma goodbye."
Renesmee went to give my mother a hug. "Bye grandma."
It was hard to think about this memory because Charlie was mentioned.
I sighed and knocked on the door. It was good that it was already night time.
Phil opened the door. He recognized me because Renee had taken a picture if us.
"Hey Bella how are you doing?" He asked.
"In doing good Phil. Is my mom here?" I said.
"Yea she's upstairs." He said.
"Thanks Phil. I'll go see her." I said coming in.
He nodded.
I went up the stairs. My room had been the only one upstairs, which I guess it now belonged to my baby brother. I went into my old room. "Hey mom how are you?" I said.
"Bella honey why didn't you tell me that you were coming?" She said.
"I don't know. I just stopped by. So where is my little brother?"
"He's asleep."
"What did you name him?"
"Marc Anthony."
"That's a nice name."
She smiled and nodded. "So why did you say that you were stopping by? Is something wrong?"
"Mom, Charlie passed away yesterday."
"Oh honey I'm sorry. How did it happened?"
"I don't know. We nearly found out two days ago, and I decided to come help him. We got there the day before yesterday. I only saw him for a few hours and then he died."
"Honey I'm sorry. I know how you must be feeling."
"I feel horrible. I feel like I should have never left Forks. But the good thing is that he is in a better place."
She nodded." You're right. So who's taking care of the funeral arrangements?"
"I asked Alice to do it. I couldn't do it."
"Well you can stay here if you want. When us the burial?"
"Tomorrow."
"Well like I said you are welcome to stay here. This is your home too."
"No mom I have to go. I just came by. I'll see when I can come again."
"Well okay. Take care."
"Bye mom."
"Bye Bella."
I was glad that I was able to meet my baby brother before I couldn't see him anymore. I was about to get to the door when my mother stopped me.
"Bella may I speak with you? I forgot to ask you something."
"Sure mom."
I wonder what she wanted to ask me.
We went into the kitchen.
"Bella how are you and Edward doing?" She asked.
"We're doing good mom. Why?"
"Well I was wondering if you didn't think it was a good idea if Renesmee had a baby sister or brother."
"Of course mom, but I can't right now. I'm going to college. Edward and I have talked about it, and we want to wait."
What I really wanted to say was 'mom I can't have any more children. I'm frozen forever at eighteen.'
"Oh yea that's true. That's good I guess. Well I was just wondering. That was all."
I nodded. "Bye mom. Bye Phil." I said going to the door.
I got out of the house. It was ten thirty. It was time to head back to Forks. I got in my car and started driving towards Forks, Washington. Twenty hours later I finally made it home. But instead of going to the Cullen's house I went to Edward's meadow.
Edward and Renesmee where there.
I guess Giselle and Alice had told them I was headed this way.
"Momma you're back!" Nessie said running to me.
"Hey baby." I told her.
"I missed you a lot." She said.
"I know. In here now, and I don't think that I am going anywhere. That's why I came back because I missed both of you. My family."
"Are you well?" Edward asked.
"I'm a little better. I just didn't wanted to be here for the burial." I said.
"Alice got worried about you. You kept making a lot of choices. Your future kept changing, and she didn't know what to do. She was going to go look for you, but Giselle didn't let her. She said that you wanted to be alone." Edward said.
I sighed. "Yes its true. But after a while I wanted company so I went to visit my mom. I met my baby brother. I missed her do much and it had been some time since I had last seen her."
"I know how much you miss your mother Bella, but it's for the best. It's going to hurt more later in case something happens to her. Like Charlie." Edward said hugging me.
Nessie hugged me also.
"Let's go home. I miss my family." I said.
They nodded.
We ran to where I had left my car. We got in and Edward drove home. When we got to the garage, the whole family was there waiting for us.
Alice and Giselle must have seen it.
I really didn't know what to do. I felt like part of my life was over, but I knew that I felt that way because my father had passed away.
I got off the car just to be attacked by Alice. "Bella!" She said.
I guess she really was worried about me. I could even see that Jacob was worried.
"Hey Alice." I said.
"How are you feeling?" She asked.
"A little better."
She nodded. "I was really worried about you. Your future kept changing and I couldn't see what you were going to do."
"I know and I'm sorry if I made you worry about me, but I'm here now and there is nothing to worry about. And I guess we can leave now. I already saw my father for the last time and my mother also." I said.
"You're right Bella. Besides we already started a life in Juneau." Carlisle said.
"I think we should leave as soon as possible." Emmett said.
"I'm with Emmett. I don't want to start all over when we already did." Rosalie said.
"You're right." Esme said.
"Alright then let's go pack." Edward said.
As soon as Edward said that everyone left. Including Renesmee.
"Shall we?" Edward said
I nodded.
We raced to our small home.
I wanted to leave as soon as possible. The more I spent time here, the more it reminded me of my father. I wanted to be back in school because I needed the distraction.
I packed the most important things that were mine and Renesmee's. We weren't going to be coming back until everyone we knew was dead.
At this moment I realized that I didn't hate Forks like I had told Charlie when I was being chased by James. I loved it here. It was where I met Edward, and the rest of the Cullens. Nessie was born here. I met Jacob here, who is one of my best friends. This is also where I got married. Edwards meadow was also here. That was where he told me that he loved me and where he proposed.
If it hadn't been for the choice I made when I was seventeen none of that would have happened. I was really going to miss Forks, but time passes by fast. Sometimes we don't even notice it. A few years ago time had meant so much to me. The time where the Volturi were coming for us, but now everything was in its place. Everything was different. Everything is to how is supposed to be.
We went back to Juneau and it was hard at first. Everything reminded me of Forks. I started concentrating on what I was doing; more that I had to, instead of what had happened.
We met Leonardo when we came back, and just like Giselle had said, he smelled delicious. It was a good thing that our thirst was under control and that we were so used to drinking animal blood. Seeing how happy they were as the months passed. It reminded me of how Edward and I started.
Edward and Giselle were so much alike. The inky difference they had was their way of thinking. What they thought was the best. The difference between both relationships was that Leonardo didn't have other vampires after him, and Giselle didn't leave after a few months like Edward did.
"So, Bella how long have you been a vampire?" Leonardo asked. Leonardo knew that we were vampires. He was going to be part of the family one day. He didn't care when Giselle told him.
"About four years." I said.
"How about you Edward?" He asked.
"One hundred twelve years." Edward said.
"Whoa that's a long time. How did you and Bella meet?" He asked.
Edward smiled. "The same way that you and Giselle met, but in a high school in Forks." Edward said.
"How much time later did you get married?" He asked.
Giselle turned to look at him. She was surprised by his question.
"A year and five months." Edward said.
"I wonder when that is going to happen to me." Leonardo said
Giselle swallowed.
Edward was trying so hard not to laugh.
Giselle glared at him.
Giselle had become very close to Alice, Edward, Renesmee, Emmett, and Rosalie. She got along fine with everyone, but she spent a lot of time shopping with Alice, Rosalie, and Renesmee. She liked helping Esme decorate, and she liked making jokes, and playing games with Emmett. But she was more close to Edward.
I didn't mind at all because they were exactly alike, and I was glad they were.
"That will happen when you are ready, and when you ask the person you love to marry you." Alice said.
"Although if you marry Gisselle you're not going to be able to surprise her." Emmett said teasing.
Alice glared at Emmett. "Unless, she is concentrating really hard on something." Alice said.
"So Giselle when are you going to take Leonardo home so Carlisle and Esme can meet him?" I asked.
"I still don't know." Giselle said.
"How about tomorrow? There is a storm coming in, and it would be a great opportunity to play a baseball game. Besides Bella hasn't played, and you haven't either and I know the rest are dying to play." Alice said.
"Alice." Edward said.
"Don't worry Edward. There are no visitors coming. I have already checked. It won't be like last time." She said.
Last time. When we met Laurent, Victoria, and James.
"What happened last time." Gisselle asked becoming for alert.
"We'll explain later. To both of you. Right now we have to go to class." I told her.
Giselle nodded.
GISSELLE'S POV
PREFACE
Being alone for so much time, made me think of how it would feel to have someone that belonged to you. But now that I have found that special someone, it made me think differently. It made me feel things that I never thought I was going to be able to feel. I had missed so many things. Like caring for him. I really didn't know how long this happiness was going to last. But Bella told me to be careful. Sometimes when you think that nothing could happen, that nothing can take that happiness away, something or someone interferes. Just like the Volturi had done it to them.
BEING CAREFUL
On Thursday we were on our way to class from lunch. Leonardo and I had geography together. When the Cullens went their separate way, Leonardo told me that he noticed that Bella was worrying about something. I had told him not to worry because I had checked and everything was fine. He didn't believe me.
Today was Friday and we didn't go to school. It was sunny outside. Carlisle and Esme were home so I decided to bring Leonardo to meet them. I went to pick him up early so we could act like we were going to school. It was a good think that my skin didn't sparkle like the rest if the Cullens did, but it would be weird to be in school without them. I had been living with the Cullens for six months now and I had learned to love each one of them.
I had my parents but for their own safety I couldn't be near them. My parents were half-shadowhunters half-vampires, and my mother's mind had been erased since she had been caught again. She risked her life for me, and I will forever be thankful to her for that. I had spoken to my father a month ago and he had told me that he had found my mother in New York again and that they had been married for six years now. I had brothers and sisters. I was so happy. They were living in Houston Texas. So we had planned a away to "meet" each other sometime in the future. I couldn't tell the Cullens yet. Aro could read their minds and he would know that I knew the truth.
The only one I could tell was Bella. Her mind was a shield and I needed to tell someone. I couldn't keep it all to myself. But I decided that I was going to invite her to come with me so we could meet them.
The story that we had made up was that Rosalie and Jasper were my cousins. Renesmee was my little sister, and Carlisle and Esme had adopted us. Our parents had been murdered, and Rsalir and Jasper were the only family we had left.
We went inside the house
"Carlisle, Esme." I said.
They rushed down stairs to the living room.
"Leonardo these are Carlisle and Esme. Carlos Esme this is Leonardo." I said.
They nodded.
"Nice to meet you." Carlisle said shaking Leonardo's hand.
"Nice to finally meet you." Esme said giving Leonardo a hug.
"Nice to finally meet both you." Leonardo said.
Carlisle smiled and nodded. "So how did you meet?" He asked.
I smiled. "The sane way Edward and Bella met."
Esme smiled. "It's happening again." She said.
Carlisle smiled.
"Hey Gisselle! I heard ya'll talking so I assume our visitor was here." Renesmee said.
"Hey Renesmee. I want you to meet Leonardo." I said.
She smiled and extended her hand. "It's nice to finally meet you." She said.
Leonardo shook her hand but was in shock. He kept looking at my face and then at Renesmee's.
Carlisle and Esme noticed it and smiled.
Then Alice & Jasper came down the stairs.
"Are you ready Gisselle?" Alice asked.
I smiled. "Of course!" I said.
Then Edward, Bella, Rosalie, and Emmett came down the stairs.
Bella came to stand beside me. "When we come back I'll explain what u meant last time." She whispered.
I nodded.
We went to get in the cars. Everyone left except for Bella and Edward.
We were taking Emmetts jeep. We went to get in, and Edward started driving.
Twenty minutes later we got to a place that was big. It was a clear of trees for a large space. When we got there the rest of the family was there.
Renesmee, and Alice were throwing a ball to each other.
I doubted that Leonardo could see it.
We got off.
"Alright everyone time to form teams, and NO cheating." Esme said.
"She thinks we cheat." Emmett said.
"I know you cheat." Esme said.
Emmett laughed.
"How about girls against boys?" Alice asked.
"Alright. Alice, Bella, Rosalie, and Nessie are on one team. Carlisle, Jasper, Edward, Jacob, and Emmett are in the other." Esme said.
"Are you playing too Gisselle?" Renesmee asked.
"Um I don't know how to play." I said.
She smiled and took my hand. "Come on I'll show you."
"Fine." I said going with her.
Alice was baring first. She hit the ball and Edward ran after it.
Alice ran to third base. She stayed there since Edward was back with the ball.
Then it was Bella's turn. She hit it hard enough that Alice made a home run and Bella stayed in third base.
Rosalie was next. She hit the ball but Emmett caught it.
"Out." Esme called.
"Woo! Out." Emmett said.
Now it was Renesmee's turn. She didn't hit it hard enough, and Emmett caught it. Renesmee started to run.
Emmett threw the ball to Jacob, who threw it to Carlisle.
Carlisle was guarding the base that Renesmee was heading to.
Renesmee turned around and ran back towards first base.
Carlisle threw the ball to Jasper.
Jasper ran after Renesmee and caught her.
"Out" Esme said.
Edward smiled and shook his head.
Now it was my turn.
I saw that Leonardo was trying to pay more attention now.
I hadn't noticed that Bella had made a home run.
Jasper was the pitcher on their team.
I stared at him with the bat in my hand.
Jasper threw the ball and I swung the bat.
I hit the ball just as we heard thunder. I threw the bat and started running to my right. I made it first base, but I kept running. I made it to second base and I didn't stop there. I made it to third base, but I decided to risk myself to fourth base. I pushed myself to run faster.
The base was just a few feet away.
I saw Edward coming with the ball.
"Come on Giselle you can make it." Renesmee said.
I slid and make it to fourth base lifting up a whole bunch of sand just as Edward touched me with the ball.
Esme came to where we were.
"Safe." She said.
I looked at the base and I saw that I had one hand touching it.
I sighed.
Edward got up and helped me up.
"That was a good home run." Edward said.
"For a first timer I guess it is." I said.
"I didn't know that you were a fast runner." He said.
I smiled. "I didn't know either."
"Maybe we can run and see who can run faster?"
I laughed. "Someday."
He smiled and nodded.
I walked back to my team.
"Nicely done Gisselle." Rosalie said giving me a hug.
I smiled. "Thank you."
"Good job." Bella said.
"Thanks."
"And you said you didn't know how to play." Alice said.
"I'm a fast learner." I said.
Alice smiled. "Well it's my turn again." She said.
I nodded.
Alice took the bat, and Jasper threw the ball. But she didn't get to swing since at time we both got a vision.
Every time I got a vision I needed to hold on to someone because it was like I wasn't there anymore.
I heard five gasps. Alice, Edward of course, me, and two others.
My visions were always 3-D. It was weird because I didn't see it in my mind, but it was like I was part of it. Like I was a witness.
"Bella bring Leonardo here please." I said when the vision was over. I noticed that I had touched Rosalie and Renesmee.
Everyone was with us in a moment.
And okay guys I am going to leave it there. So what do ya'll think? I don't know why but I couldn't wait until I got Bella's part out of the way. I just wanted to write about Giselle and I can't wait for when she falls in love with Edward, but that's in the future. So how did I do? Did ya'll like it? Well next chapter will be a little different. It will still be on Giselle's POV so that won't change for a while. Anyways I decided to write a hint in this story, so ya'll are going to see how it connects to the Being Different story :) well I hope ya'll enjoyed it. Let me know what ya'll think by reviewing :) even if its good or bad. Thank you for reading :) until next time
