I don't think y'all have the slightest idea where this story is going and I like that. I like uncertainty. This story won't be long but it will hurt. Please believe me. Review!?

"Feelings change

And people change too

Never thought

The circumstances would have

Changed you. "

As I kissed my way down Bella's body slowly. I could feel the heat radiating off her skin. It warmed me from the outside in. Her low moans rumbled from deep inside her chest. They urged me on.

We had been doing this for a while now. With her change came a confidence that overshadowed her inhibitions. She wanted me and so I gave her myself. Her lust only got worse when I told her I would change her after graduation. She had cried and clung to me with a joy unseen. It seemed all she wanted was to be immortal.

As my fingertips curled around the edges of her skin tight jeans, my gift alerted me to a guest. Not just that, a car was pulling up outside. I looked up at Bella's heavily lidded eyes and frowned. This was a vampire. My gift knew the difference. My eyes widened.

"Why did you stop," she whined. I got up swiftly and put my shirt on.

"Were you expecting a guest?" She looked confused and shook her head no. I point towards the window and she moves toward it with trepidation. Her heart beats louder as she stares out the window.

"That's one of the Cullen's cars," she whispers. She runs toward the door and down the stairs faster than I'd ever seen.

I can smell the tears in her eyes. I stand stock still in the middle of her room as she lets the person in. The vampire has a female voice. It's high pitched and worried. At least it isn't him.

Bella hugs the stranger and weeps in happinesss. I just wait for the smell to hit the vampires nose. Sure enough the vampire growls and snarls. I'm down the stairs faster than Bella can ask what's wrong.

The vampire crouches in front of Bella and growls at me. I just blink at her. She's very small, with a pixie haircut. She's adorable. From what Bella told me, this is Alice. The future seeing vampire.

"Hey, I'm Ivy," I said with a smile. Alice narrows her eyes at me before they glaze over. She looks surprised and straightens up.

I silently wonder what the vision was about.

"You helped Bella," she states plainly. I raise a brow and nod. She looks conflicted. Bella looks between us with trepidation. "Well..I guess you're okay despite your..dietary choices."

I want to laugh but I choice to nod instead. If I want to stay in Bella's life I have to play nice.

"Bella, Edward has gone to the Volturi to get himself killed. He thinks that..Ivy.. killed you," Alice said slowly. I can't control my laugh this time. I killed Bella? That's not even possible. If anyone was a danger toward her it is him.

Alice glares at me and Bella gives me a scolding look.

"Ivy would never hurt me. What was he thinking," Bella said exasperatedly. Alice looked shocked that Bella wasn't more hysterical. I smiled discreetly and turned away. This is a good sign.

"He didn't understand the context of my vision. Rosalie called him and said that a rogue vampire got ahold of you. We have to go to Italy and save him," Alice ranted. I glared at her and she glared back. How could she ask Bella to go to vampire central. I wanted to use my gift but thought better of it. This isn't the time.

"No. They will eat her alive," I growled. Alice snarled at me and Bella got between us. I calmed instantly.

"I can't let him die over me. It's the least I can do, V," Bella pleaded. I looked into her eyes and saw the need. It hurt me beyond belief but I couldn't say no. I was loathe to keep her from anything she wanted. I conceded.

We got to Italy on an awkward plane ride. Bella sat between Alice and I lest we take the plane down with violence. Everything about this was wrong. Alarms rang in my head with warnings. Bella was not safe here at all. I hoped that once she got to Edward we could fuck off out of there. I was so wrong once again.

Aro stood in front of us with a weird grin. I had been here before with my sire. Joseph had been in the Volturi for a couple centuries. He and the kings had been close considering their close age. Aro looked at me with recognition in his haunting eyes.

"Ahh, Ivy. What a surprise," he drawled dramatically. I smiled a somewhat strained smile. He had been like a uncle to me but I was in trouble today. "You've gotten yourself into a predicament, I see."

I nodded and glanced at the others. The Cullens and Bella looked shocked. Edward and Alice had a hint of outrage. Jane and Alec looked on dissapointedly. I felt like an idiot. I didn't dare look at Caius and Marcus.

"Yes, Aro. I must say that I didn't expect this at all. I simply wanted to help the girl," I stated stoically. Aro strode to me with a smile. His hand outstretched. I didn't hesitate to put mine in his. This wouldn't be my first experience.

He closed his eyes and leaned in. I felt my memories flash before my eyes. From my abusive step father to this moment. It was so fast that I didn't have a chance to flinch.

He let my hand go with an understanding look in his eyes.

"Young Ivy, you did have the intention to change the human. The appearance of the seer thwarted your plans," Aro said sympathetically. Edward hissed and growled at me before he fell to the ground writhing.

I winced. I had felt the sting of Janes power on request. It was like being flayed and burned alive. It was not as bad for me because of my tolerance was higher due to my human life. I didn't even hit my knees. She had been intrigued.

"Stop," Bella screamed. She looked terrified for him. All sympathy I had drained away. Fuck him.

Aro raised a hand and Jane let him go. The boy looked horrible. I wanted to feel bad but I couldn't.

I tuned the rest of it out. Only listening a bit to see if Bella would live.

"What about you, young Ivy. Would you like to stay? It would be like old times," Aro said with a smile.

I looked to Bella and saw her in Edward's arms. I saw him glaring at me with hatred and jealousy. I guess he read my mind. A hint of a smile twitched at my lips. Alice looked at me with a forlorn expression. I guess she knew my answer. Maybe she knew the entire outcome. Something in her expression told me it wouldn't bode well for me.

I changed my answer.

"Aro, I must decline for now. Expect me in the future. I do miss our relationship," I said with a genuine smile. I wasn't lying at all. If Bella chose him I would come back. Hopefully, I had the strength to.

Aro smiled like a kid in a candy store and clapped.

"I will look forward to it, tesoro. You all must be on your way by nightfall."

I gave an appreciative smile and moved to hug him. He looked surprised but returned the favor. I discreetly touched his hand and sent him my actual decision through his subconscious. Edward read surface thoughts so these would not be heard. Aro smiled sadly at me rubbed my arm.

As I looked toward Marcus, his eyes flicked between Bella and I with intrigue. I hadn't seen anything like that from him in my short time with him. I turned away swiftly. I didn't want to know.

Bella stuck to Edward's side the entire trip back to Forks. I noticed her eyes flicking back toward me many times. I chose to look at anything else. I didn't need pity.

At the airport, I got odd looks from the rest of the Cullens as I came up behind the others. Alice walked beside me giving me apologetic looks. I understood what she was saying with her eyes. I'm sorry. I knew as her hand came up to squeeze my own that the odds were not in my favor.

"Who is this," Carlisle said politely. Every eye came to me. I didn't feel one bit nervous.

"I'm Ivy. I stayed with Bella while you all were gone," I stated simply. They winced at the revelation. I raised a brow. They were too human.

"In that case, thank you. I would like to have a meeting with you after we have settled back in." I nodded silently. I understood what this was about. They wanted to make sure I wasn't hunting in Forks. How stupid.

Rosalie was the only one that looked at me oddly. She looked like she was trying to understand my motives and reasoning. I stared back as the rest of them got into their cars. She must've got what she wanted because her face softened and she turned away.

I don't know what I've gotten myself into. I'm starting to think it isn't worth it. I'm starting to think she will only cause pain.
