Chapter 23

"Bella are you ready to go home?" Eleazar asked me after we had finished hunting.

"Yea, but can I ask you a few things?" I asked him.

"Of course." He told me.

"Are you planning to have any other member of my family join you?"

"Yes." He answered telling me to continue.

"Who?"

"Alice, Edward, Emmett, Megan, and Ian" he simply told me

"That many? Why?" I asked him

"Alice can see the future, Edward can read minds, Emmett will be as strong as a newborn forever, Megan can-"

"Meg." I corrected him.

"Meg" he smiled at me "Can take away powers. And Ian can control others."

A/N: cheesy right?

"When will you change them?"

"Alice will be soon, because Aro is impatient and won't wait. I am trying to convince him to wait till Edward gets over your death. But it will be hard for him. Edward will be after Alice, A year after. Emmett will be with Edward. We are going to try to get them together. Meg and Ian will be when they turn 15. Anything else?" he explained and asked me.

"Yes. Can I change the rest of my family? Carlisle and Esme I mean." I asked him.

"No. Not now. In 10 years maybe. Esme and Carlisle will raise your kids when Edward becomes a vampire." He told me. I was all alone until Alice came into my thoughts. I haven't spoken to Alice since the wedding. I wonder how she is. she would be changing into a vampire soon. But I had many more questions.

"When was Aro created?" I asked him "and Jane and Caius and Marcus."

"And Alec?" he added. "Aro and Caius were created in the 1300's B.C. Marcus was created in the 1350's B.C. Jane and Alec are twins and were born around 800 A.D."

Good they weren't the same people that hurt me in high school.

Then something that he said sunk in before. Meg and Ian would be transformed but what about EJ? "What about EJ? Will he be transformed? What will happen to him!?"

"EJ can be transformed if you would like, but he won't be part of the guard." He answered

"I have one more. Can I leave this club? Guard? King? Place? Whatever this is." I asked him pleading.

"Yes you can." He said and I turned to go. "You have to ask Aro. And when you do think of Edward. Think how he is away and how much you want to see him again. Because if you can leave after you ask you can leave forever. I have been trying for ages. But I never could. I never had that type of love."

"Thanks for the advice. Now where is this place? You flew to Italy when the transformation was occurring. And now all you have to do is follow me.' He turned and I followed.

"Ah! Wonderful! Bella's here!" Aro shouted. I thought of Edward. I kissed him. I thought of my babies it would be 10 years. My eyes filled with tears that would never fall.

"Aro, I want to leave." I told him thinking of Edward and my kids.

Aro looked over at a small girl and the girl looked intensely at me. I felt the urge to stay here and fight but the urge to see Edward was more. I had to see him like I had to breathe air. "Can you leave?" he asked me

"Yes."

"You may go then." He told me.

I turned to leave and saw Eleazar with his head down. I felt really bad. So I turned to Aro and told him, "Eleazar has been wanting to leave for a long time. It is his turn too." I grabbed Eleazar's arm and ran out the door.

His eyes lit up and he hugged me. "Thanks!" he said. I nodded and he said, "Bella, you need to change Alice before Aro does. Before he can claim her thoughts as well." I nodded again as he continued, "Bella, you just set me free. But I can't leave you like this. I will help you change your family. I can help you see your family again."

"Would you Eleazar! That would be the best!" I gave him a quick hug and sped off following a faint scent in the distant that was of Eleazar leading to the airport.

Edward POV

A week and a day. That's how long Bella has been gone. I missed her. I was only here for my it weren't for that stupid car then she would still be here. If it wasn't for the stupid car EJ wouldn't be so confused all the time. And if it weren't for the car everything would be perfect.

I sat down at Bella's desk and opened a drawer. In the drawer were letters. Letters to me, why did she write these? Should I read them?

I will read them, they were addressed to me and they were from my love. There must be forty letters in there. After 5 hours I had read them all and fixed my kids dinner. Now it was my turn to write her.

Bella,

You are gone now and never to return. I miss you like hell Bella. Why did you leave me? Why did you leave our kids? Can it be me? Can I take your place? After reading your letters, I realize how much you love me and I return that love only one thousand times more. I love you and miss you. Can you come back to me? So we can be together once again? I know how much you love our little family and I love it too. I can't imagine how you would live without them. I can't imagine how I would live without them. But I do know that I can't live without you. I am not going to become your father. I will be there for the kids. And I won't leave them. I love you and I miss you. Please come back.

Yours forever and always,

Edward

I folded up the little piece of paper and put it in the drawer. Just in case she ever read it. "I love you." I whispered to the paper that I wrote Bella's name on and sealed away my love.

This made me cry even though I know Bella is okay. but I hope you enjoyed! thanks for reading!
