Another long wait over with.

Sigh. This has been my life since I last updated. My sister's eh boyfriend is back for one. For two my grandma is back downstairs and for three I'm having jaw problems. Yeah, I have to have something called 'Splint therapy'. Sort of like a retainer. It'll suck. Also, I'm scheduled to have my wisdom teeth removed in the summer! Yay! My mom gets to spend more money that we don't have on something I really need!

I'll stop now and you enjoy this chapter.


THE SHORT VACATION

In one second, the memories all came flooding back into my brain. Non of the bad though. Only tons and tons of good enjoyable thoughts.

The large house stood out against the dark green trees. Turning away from my second home, I gaped at my first one.

Bella just smiled and said. "Welcome back."


I had attacked her.

There hadn't been a single thought in my mind before I jumped, except the one that had recently taken residence in the back of my brain. The voice that I just couldn't ignore.

So, I jumped her right there in the drive way. Of course, she didn't mind. Until, I pulled her off the grass and into the house.

Had to make her more comfortable didn't I?

That had been hours ago. And still we had not left the large golden bed Bella had had delivered into my old bedroom.

At first sight, I stared at it in confusion. Had we gone into the room? Was someone else inhabiting our white home? Then Bella giggled and pushed me onto the soft gold bedspread and the thought left my mind. The first time we resurfaced however, I remembered to ask her. Her answer was short and simple.

"I had it put here for this weekend. Just for us."

And then there was no more talking.


It as Saturday morning.

We still had not moved.

Not that I was complaining.

But Bella wanted to go to Port Angeles and see a move or something. I just wanted to make her happy so we went.

And saw a vampire movie.

We laughed like it was going out of style.

Everything was wrong. The humans in it could smack the vampires on the head with a cross and kill them. They could also run them through with wood.

What a joke.

The run back was just as magnificent as the run there. We teased and flirted like regular teenagers on a date.

Once home we ran back upstairs.

And we didn't come out till Bella's phone rang Stephen's ring tone and mine rang Alice's. Bella's eyes flickered to my face. Sliding out of the bed, she wrapped the duvet around herself and padded to the dresser where our phones had been careful placed earlier. Before the dangerous and pleasurable activities continued.

Flipping open her open, she threw mine to me. "What is it Stephen?"

Turning to my own, I opened it to Alice's picturing flashing across the screen. The techno tone still coming out the small speaker. "Yes Alice?"

"We have visitors coming." Her voice was careful, cautious.

"Visitors?" Mine was bleak remembering the last time strangers came to Forks.

"Yeah. Two. Couldn't really tell what they were of course. For some reason the vision had been blurry. Like something was interfering with their future and thus ours too. But I do know they're coming here."

"Do you know if they have James intentions or Peter ones?"

She sighed. "I can't tell. It's too blurry. Giving me a headache."

"A headache?" This conversation was getting more and more confusing.

"The vampire equivalent."

"Oh." I sighed, disappointed. "I'll be back soon. Expect me in an hour."

"Okay. I'll warn the others." Her voice turned light, playful.

I didn't answer.

Looking up at my love, I found she was already dressed and getting packed. I didn't ask. I figured that she had heard about the visitors from Stephen.

We were ready in ten minutes. We didn't talk much on the way home, but it was a comfortable silence. The one that always surrounded us. The peaceful kind that you never wanted to interrupt except with a chaste kiss.

Once we came to the woods separating our houses, we kissed again, slowly, agonizingly. Neither one of us wanted to leave the other.

She smiled ruefully, turned and in a flash, was gone.

I sighed and ran the way to the house that would never live up to the one we just left.

My family stood in the living room. Rosalie at the window at the back, Emmett leaning against the wall a few feet away, his arm wrapped around Esme, Carlisle was pacing in front of the couch, Jasper sat on the stairs in the back, and Alice sat on the floor by his feet, her fingers pressed hard against her temples.

Every pair of eyes, but hers, flashed to my face when I entered and away a second later. Everyone resumed their stand-by positions.

"Any idea Edward?" Jasper asked, running his hand through Alice's hair.

I shook my head. "None."

Carlisle sighed. 'Let's go over everything we know."

Emmett snorted. "That won't take long."

He was right. The briefing took about two seconds. All we knew was that our futures would become mixed with these two strangers.

And we had no idea what was causing Alice to see this.

The problem wasn't that we would disappear. No. That wasn't what gave Alice her vampire headache. Instead, her visions were blurred. One half coming into focus the other gone. Blank.

And that's what scared us.

Now, on top of it all, we had another family to worry about.

Bella and the Millers. They could be in danger too.

After all, Bella is the one the last visitors had gained a liking to.

I winced. That subject was still delicate. Especially with Victoria still out there.

Hopefully the Millers knew about the coming strangers and were preparing themselves for the in coming.

Maybe that's why Stephen called Bella at the same time that Alice called me.

Whatever the reason they had for coming, we would meet them and kindly yet quickly show them on their way.

The only problem was how they would handle so many vampires there to great them.
