Cammy POV

"Bella?" I'd stepped out of the room for less than five minutes, I only went to the bathroom, and yet she had disappeared. "Bella, where are you?" I saw her laptop open on the bed, with an unsent email to Alice. Had she managed to contact her? I know it was an invasion of privacy- privacy kinda goes out the window when an immortal is trying to kill you and there's an open email draft to a girl you considered a sister.

"Crap, Bella!" I knew exactly where she was going, this could not end well. If one thing had been taught to me while helping the pack and living with them, was to never go cliff diving alone, and to read the currents; she didn't know either of these points. Looking out the window, her truck was gone, so I ran outside and into my car, driving way higher than the speed limit to catch up with my best friend who might be more suicidal than me. When I got to the base, I was right, her truck was there. There's no telling if she knows the path to the cliffs or if she'll just go crazy- I do know the path and hope to get there first to tell her how crazy this is.

"Bella!" Oh, thank whatever exists besides the supernatural she hasn't jumped. "Are you crazy?! The current could kill you today, and you never go alone!" I grabbed her shoulders, turning her to face me.

"How did you?"

"Because when a murderous vampire is after someone you consider a sister, privacy doesn't exist! Jumping off this cliff, it's not bringing them back. They left Bella, and we should learn that they're not coming back."

"They wanted us to be human, so let them watch." She's lost her mind, she's actually lost it.

"Are you trying to kill yourself?! Guilt trip Edward for not changing you. Bella, you're human. Deal with it! You have one life!"

"He doesn't stay with me any other way."

"Bells think about this, think about Charlie. Think about Jake. Please, Bella, please! BELLA!" She didn't even listen, just ran off the edge. "Oh god. Don't blame me for this, Edward, Jasper. Love made me crazy, if it didn't, I wouldn't do this." And I jumped in right after her. The cold water enveloped me, disorientating me for a moment before I could figure out which way was up.

Gasping for air my head broke the surface, and I swam over to the crazy girl.

"You idiot! What if it hadn't gone-" Like this.

This is what I meant, strong currents, large waves pushing us down without a breath. And red swimming towards- RED SWIMMING TOWARDS US. 

That's Victoria. We need to get out of the water now. I frantically searched for Bella, but the water was spinning and throwing me violently without breaking, I couldn't do anything as it went dark. I'm sorry.

Bella POV

When Jake pulled me out of the water, I didn't know what to think. I was cold, but not the cold I'm used to. Victoria was there, she was so close, thank god Jake got us out. Wait.

"Jacob?" I spluttered, "Where's Cammy?" I looked along the beach, but couldn't see her.

"What do you mean?"

"She jumped after me." I hadn't noticed another figure standing behind him, as soon as the words left my mouth they were jumping into the water and swimming violently towards where Jake pulled me out. Jared.

Cammy POV

Water could be calm underneath all the rough waves. Surprisingly.

When I jumped after Bella, it wasn't because of my mental state, I did it because I wanted to save her. She had no clue how reckless it was, I guess she knows now. I hope someone found her. Me? Well, as Emily said, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel- I wanted to see it one day;  I guess I get to see my daughter sooner instead. I know I promised my dad not to see him for a long time, but that day came quicker than either of us could imagine. Louise, my baby. I'm coming to se-
