Edward paced the confines of his room, wondering if it was just his nature to fear for her by now, or if it was actually something to be worried about this time. She had a natural ability to find trouble, which bothered him. He grimaced and sat down on the wide couch, eyeing the vast collection of CDs. Not particularly wanting to listen to anything--too concerned at the moment to enjoy it--he let out a huffing sigh.
He stood and resumed pacing, running a hand through his locks, then turning to glare out of the wall sized window. Where was she now, he wondered. And what was she doing to get herself in trouble this time?
Then he rolled his eyes and reminded himself of one small fact--Charlie. After the incident in Italy, Charlie had all but forbidden her from doing anything. He had limited visiting hours with her, and he knew, though he didn't need to use his particular brand of talent for it, that Charlie would like nothing more than to see him go away for good.
That line of thought brought a wave of guilt, anguish and remorse into his head, his features twisting as he fought to regain control of his emotions. It remided him of what she'd told him about their time apart. He felt so stupid for leaving her, when she'd been in so much danger--when it would have been better for them both if he'd just stayed. He closed his eyes and leaned his head against the glass, trying desperately to regain control of his emotions. Though he'd never let Bella see just how pained it made him as it distressed her, now, while he was alone, the struggle was a losing battle against the emotions that wanted to crush him beneath their weight.
He took a deep breath, trying to steady himself.

Carlisle walked to Edwards door waiting to be invited in. He never had to ask out loud with Edward which was pretty convenient. Carlisle knew that Edward would be getting worried by now because of the absence of Bella. Then again he could also be curled in a ball yelling at himself for what he did to Bella. He did it for the right reasons because he loves her so much. Carlisle said in his head Edward calm down everything is fine now.

Alice danced along the hallway humming a foreign lullaby to herself, she was in her own little world and it seemed was blissfully unaware of anything around her. She stopped suddenly to catch Carlisle standing the doorway of Edwards’s bedroom. She tilted her head as her expression soften as she remind that Edward was still blaming himself over what happened to Bella. She walked slowly up to Carlisle stopping just behind his shoulder. “ Hi” She whispered with her sweet angelic voice, “ what’s up?”

Carlisle studied the door and was about to say may I come in again in his head when he noticed Alice. He turned his head slightly to see her face. He let out a quick sigh. "Hi. I was just about to go in and talk with Edward but it doesn't seem like he wants to. Where are you headed?" he asked while raising his eyebrows. He thought quickly but couldn't remember if Jasper was around.

Alice smiled up at Carlisle before stealing a peek into Edwards’s room, “ I think he might just need a little time to his own. He’ll be fine” She swung away from the door to lean against the wall behind her, “ anyway Bells is fine at the moment, and hopefully it will stay like that.” She grinned widely up at him, before shrugging “ As for were I’m heading, I have'nt got a clue, just wondering I suppose”

Carlisle said "Yes I suppose that's what he needs." His smile faded when she spoke of Bella. "Let's hope so." He erased the thoughts of Bella from his mind in case Edward was listening. He smiled in response to Alice and said "I guess so."

Alice nodded softly towards Carlisle before shrugging away from the wall, " Maybe we should give him some space Carlisle" She pointedbehind him, along the corridor to the study that was at the end, " why dont we go in there, i'd love to hear one of your stories" She flickered a smile at him " You must have a story that i have'nt heared of yet!" he paused beaming up at him " Unless you've got something else you need to do.."

Calisle smiled and said "That's probably best. I don't have anything else to do but I think you've already heard all my stories." He walked down the stairs assuming that Alice was following. He opened the door and walked into his office. Taking a seat in his leather chair behind his desk he looked to see if Alice had come.

Alice grinned widely behind Carlisle as she step into place behind him. She let her eyes wonder to look round their beautiful and historical house, with its paintings and ornaments decorating the corridor. * A property sellers dream deal* She mused to herself. Sh followed her adopted father into the office, she looked round at the room for a place to sit, deciding on sit on the edge of his desk, so that she had the best view of the room.
She sighed deeply " you know, i think i have heard all of your stories" Her eyes scanned the room before locking onto one of her favourtie picture in the house, that of Carlisle and the two other Volturi. She pasued on it for a moment,thinking back to thier escape in Italy, she had not had any visions of them coming, and for the moment they were safe. She turned round to Carlisle who had seated himself in his chair, " Is there anything you want to talk about?"

Carlisle followed Alice's gaze to the pictures. He saw that she was intensely staring at the picture of himself and the Volturi. Ignoring her first question he said "I would have thought that they would have treated you better. But I guess that's what I get after being the outsider and not drinking like them." He moved his gaze to the window. He stared out to the forest that engulfed the house.

Alice titled her head at Carlisle " Well Aro was pleasant with us, he even sent his regards to you remember. The others we the problem" She followed his gaze out towards the forest that kept the house hidden from human eyes, expect Bella's. The wind gently rustled the top of the trees as well as the light patter of rain hitting Carlisle window. The clouds over head were starting to gather and darken " It will be good weather for a game or hunting tonight and tomorrow." She paused " Some good old sport should help get rid of some stress, don't you think?" She flashed her gleaming teeth at him playfully before looking back out the window to watch the rain fall.

Carlisle nodded his head. He turned his head to look at Alice. Showing a small smile he said "That would fun. Do you think Edward would come along?" He knew that Edward could hear him so asking wouldn't be needed. He looked at his watch then said "If we want to do it tonight we should start getting ready."

Alice smiled back at him, " maybe, well hitting a ball and running round, is always good for teenage angsting" She knew Edward would of heared it, she hoped that it would cheer him up. She slid off the table and stood to face Carlisle " Well we better go ask eveyone else then!"
