ESME'S POV

I sighed as I finished getting ready for school. This was the last week for this school year but I still had two years left.

"Are you okay?" Alice asked before she walked into my room.

"Yeah. Just thinking about school." I said.

"Are you sure that you want to go?" Alice asked.

I nodded. "Yeah, it's something that I have to deal with. Besides if I don't feel good or if I feel like drinking someone till they are dry then I'll tell Carlisle. Rosalie is in some of my classes as well so I don't think that there will be a problem." I said.

Alice smiled and nodded.

"You would have seen it, right?" I asked.

Alice smiled. "Yeah and we would have told you." She said.

I nodded. "How do you do it?" I asked.

"Do what?" She asked.

"How did you leave your family behind?" I asked.

Alice sighed. "The truth is that its hard Esme, and I know that is going to be hard for you. Now more that you have a baby sister. But its part of who we are. Some of us chose this life, others were forced into this life like me but its not that bad. At first I thought that it was going to be after I gave birth and I was dying until Emmett bit me." Alice said.

"Jasper was already a vampire when you got with him?" I asked.

Alice nodded.

"Did you know?" I asked.

"At first no. I was walking home and the sun was setting. I took an alley to get home faster and that was where I met him. He was the most handsome guy I had ever laid eyes on. He had an angel face. I remember that was all I could think of when I saw his face. An angel. After that we kept seeing each other because I kept taking the same alley and we talked. I started to fall in love with him and he told me that he was starting to feel something for me but that he had a secret and that he was afraid that if he told me that I would leave and that he would never see me again." Alice said.

"Then what happened?" I asked.

"Then I told him that I wanted to know. That I wanted to know the real Jasper, and he took me to a place where we could be alone and he came out into the sunlight and I saw his arm. I could see the small diamonds if I tried really hard to see them. That same night Emmett went missing. I felt like I was going crazy. Emmett is younger than me for like a year but still. He was my little brother and he was all I had left after our father had passed away." Alice said as she looked down at her hands.

"How did you find Emmett?" I asked.

"We didn't. I told Jasper what had happened after my mother killed herself. She said that she couldn't take another death in our family. That she wasn't strong enough. Apparently she thought that I was because she left me alone. So I left with Jasper then. You see people went missing all the time where we lived, and then the bodies were found days later. Since Emmett didn't come back in three days I left. I didn't wanted to see his dead body. I knew that I wasn't going to be able to take it if I saw him lie there lifeless. So jasper and I settled down in a town closed to my hometown and I got pregnant.

"One day I came out of the house to see the flowers that Jasper had brought for my garden. I remember that day perfectly. The sun had just set and I picked up a red rose and smelled it. Just then our neighbors were coming back and I heard someone laugh. I froze at that moment because I would know that laugh anywhere. Jasper had come to where I was and asked me if I was okay. That was when I turned around and saw Emmett coming with a young woman that was beautiful. Emmett froze when he saw me. I walked to where he was and hugged him and cried." Alice said with tears in her eyes.

My eyes got full of tears as well. I couldn't believe everything that Alice had suffered.

"I told him that I couldn't believe that he was there and that he was our neighbor. That was when Jasper told Rosalie that he didn't know that she lived right next to us either and that he had found it weird that he found her scent familiar. After that we spent more time together and then I went into labor. Rosalie was half vampire so she helped Carlisle but Emmett walked in as they were getting the baby out and he bit me. I spent three days in pain. Emmett was holding my hand all the time. He was telling me how sorry he was and that he didn't mean to do it. Then I woke up and forgave him because I was so glad to still have him with me. That was when he told me that Rosalie had saved him. That some guys stole all the money that he was brining home and that they beat him pretty bad and Rosalie was passing by. She ran over a hundred miles to take him to Carlisle because she was afraid that if she tried to turn him, that she was going to end up killing him. That's why I will forever be thankful to Rosalie for saving my brother, and I am thankful to Emmett for biting me and for this life." Alice said.

"If Emmett bit you then how did you turn in a half vampire?" I asked.

"Well Karla had been bleeding when she was little and since no one was around a licked her wound and tasted her blood. At that moment Emmett also came in and I fell to the ground. I woke up two days later and so did Emmett and that was when Carlisle figured out that Karla had a gift besides being able to read minds and to send her thoughts to one person or to various persons at the same time." Alice said.

I nodded. "That's good." I said.

"Yeah it is. But if we don't hurry we're going to be late for school." Alice said.

I chuckled and grabbed my backpack. "Alright lets go." I said.

*()*

"Wow Esme you look different." Angela said once we had gotten to English class.

"Really?" I asked.

"Well not that much. Just a little bit since you're wearing makeup." Angela said.

I nodded.

"But you look beautiful as always." She said.

I smiled. "Thank you Angela." I told her.

Angela smiled. "So I see a ring on your finger." She said.

I smiled and nodded. "Yeah I got engaged during the weekend." I said.

"Oh my God! Congratulations! When is it going to be?" She asked.

"Thank you. We are planning to do something small during the summer." Carlisle said.

"That soon. Well I hope I get an invitation." She said.

"Alice is taking care of it." I said.

"Invitation to what?" Tanya asked.

"To Carlisle and Esme's wedding." Angela said.

"Y'all are getting married?" Tanya asked.

Carlisle and I nodded.

"When?" She asked.

"During the summer." Angela said.

"That soon? Are you pregnant, Esme? Only that could explain why you would get married so soon." Tanya said. Tanya had not liked me since Carlisle and I started dating.

We used to be good friends last year until Carlisle came to the school.

Tanya had tried to get his attention like he had tried with Edward but Carlisle didn't even turned to look at her. Since then she has hated me. She has even tried to embarrass me in front of everyone. She had also started the rumor that I was with Carlisle because of his money and that I was probably sleeping with Edward and Emmett too.

Then out of nowhere a video started to go around the school where Tanya was having sex with a guy and she lost her popularity.

"No Tanya I'm not pregnant but if that was the case, I would be the happiest woman alive." I said.

"Then that must mean that your parents are trying to get rid of you with the new baby and all of that." Tanya said a little too loud and looking around.

I smiled. "That's not it either. My parents are very happy with my engagement. They want me to be happy like every parent would like for their children to be." I said.

Carlisle took my hand in his.

"So if it's not a pregnancy, and it's not that they want to get rid of you; then it must mean that they are in great need of money." Tanya said.

I smiled again. "When will just being in love be enough for everyone so two persons can get married? If I stand correctly you went after Edward while he was still dating Gisselle even though he was a senior last year, and then when Carlisle registered at the school you went after him as well. Does that mean that you were trying to sleep with two guys that you hadn't slept with yet? Or does that mean that you wanted to get pregnant because you were in need of money?" I asked.

"Uhhh." A couple of the students said that were near us.

"Someone call the fire fighters because Tanya got burned." Rosalie said.

Tanya looked around and her face got all red.

I swallowed when I saw all that color on her face but the flames never came.

Tanya grabbed her backpack then and went to sit in the vey back just as out teacher came into the classroom.

"Nicely done." Rosalie whispered.

"I didn't mean to hurt her or to embarrass her. Maybe I should go apologize." I said.

"Are you crazy?! After all that she has done to o you, you want to apologize?" Rosalie asked.

"Rose I'm not like her." I said.

Rosalie sighed. "Fine I'll go with you." Rosalie said before she stood up.

I stood up as well and we walked to the back of the classroom. "Tanya?" I said.

Tanya looked up and I saw that her eyes were red.

"Im sorry for embarrassing you like that in front of everyone. It wasn't right and im sorry that I made you feel bad." I said.

"You're apologizing to me after all that I have done to you?" She asked.

"Yes. Because I don't like making other people feel bad. Besides before all of that we were good friends, remember?" I said.

Tanya nodded.

I smiled. "I would like us to go back to being friends. I always thought that you were fun." I told her.

Tanya nodded and smiled. "I would like that too, and I'm sorry for being jealous of you. I am also sorry for all of those things that I said about you and all of those rumors. That wasn't nice of me." Tanya said.

I smiled. "How about if we turn the page and we start over?" I asked.

Tanya smiled and nodded. "I would like that. After everything I did, I don't have anyone to talk to anymore and I would really want a friend since we still have two years here." Tanya said.

I smiled. "You have one in me." I said.

"You can count with me as well." Rosalie said.

Tanya nodded. "Thank you." She said.

"And I would really like you to come to my wedding." I said.

"I'll be there." Tanya said with a smile.

"Ms. Hale, and Ms. Platt can y'all take a seat so we can get started on these finals? Y'all will have tons of time to talk during the summer." Mr. Smith said.

Rosalie and I went to take our seats quickly.

"Now then, today is your English final. You have fifty questions that are multiple choice and then you have two essay questions. You must write one essay. Which means that you are suppose to have five paragraphs as a minimum. No less. After you are done with your final you may leave. I wish you all good luck and a safe summer. I will start to pass the finals. You may begin as soon as you get it." Mr. Smith said.

"You did what?" Emmett asked after Rosalie told him what I had done.

I sighed. "I apologized." I said.

"Why would you do that? You had embarrassed her. She deserved it." Alice said.

"I know that she did. But I'm not like that. I felt bad for her after I saw how everyone was looking at her. Besides she used to be my friend. Our friend." I said.

Alice sighed. "Yes but she changed as soon as she started hanging out with Jessica and Lauren." She said.

I nodded. "I know." I said.

"Did you forget all that she did to you?" Emmett asked.

"Emmett, im starting a new life and I think that all of that was my human life. Which mean sthat I should leave it behind, and I plan on doing that." I said.

"You are so weird, but I understand you. Good thing that this is my last year. Then I get to relax."Emmett said.

"Or go to college." Rosalie said.

Emmett groaned. "Again?" He whispered.

"We have been in high school like a hundred times. What difference does it make?" Rosalie asked.

"You're right." Emmett said.

Then we all got a text from Karla.

Hurry home. They are coming.

"What did she mean by that? Who is coming?" I asked.

Emmett, Rosalie, Alice, Jasper, and Carlisle froze

"How come I didn't see them?" Alice asked.

"Maybe they were just passing by and they just made their choice?" Jasper asked.

But just then Alice's expression went blank. Then she blinked a couple of times and was back with us. "We have to hurry home. The Volturi will be here in an hour." Alice said.

The Volturi?

We stood up then and we walked as fast as we could to our cars.

I got in Carlisle's car and he turned it on. "Who is the Volturi?" I asked.

Carlisle sighed. "I'm sorry for not telling you this before. The Volturi are like royalty. They usually check on covens that have gotten too big to see if they are making a new born army like it happened years ago." Carlisle said.

"Years ago?" I asked.

Carlisle nodded. "You see Edward was married before he met Gisselle. Her name is Bella. She went to her honeymoon with Edward. While he was hunting she left and we don't know how she got to the Volturi. She joined them and she had a daughter. After she gave birth they turned her. Renesmee came with Alec, an ex member of the Volturi, and stayed with us. Alec told her that he had met her father and he helped her find Edward with the help of Demetri." Carlisle said.

"Where are they now?" I asked.

"Renesmee lives close to us. They didn't want Aro or Bella to know that she had come looking for us because they didn't wanted the Volturi to think that Alec and Demetri betrayed them since Bella is now Aro's wife." Carlisle said.

"So what did they have to do with a newborn army?" I asked

"Well there was a vampire that was after Bella. The same one that was after you." Carlisle said.

"Laurent?" I asked.

"Yes. He created a newborn army and they were after Bella but he was never a part of the fight so we didn't catch him." Carlisle said.

I nodded. "So what do the Volturi do?" I asked.

"They make sure that we all follow the rules." Carlisle said.

"There are vampire rules?" I asked.

"Yes. We can't tell anyone about our existence." Carlisle said.

"Is that the only one?" I asked.

"And that we can't make immortal children." Carlisle said.

"As in turn children into vampires." I said.

Carlisle nodded as he parked the car inside the garage.

Okay guys I am going to leave it there. So for the ones that were wondering what had happened to Bella there you go. She joined the Volturi while Edward was hunting and gave birth to Renesmee, and Yes she is now Aro's wife so we'll see who are coming from the Volturi in the next chapter.
