Chapter Eleven
***Bella's POV***
"Dear Vanessa and Isabella," I read, Vanessa looked close to crying, so I put my arm around her and carried on, "Unlike the last times, I am not coming back to you. I wish all the best in life, and I hope to see you soon. Like your mother, I have joined the Vultori as a warrior, and we are hoping that you will join us soon, Vanessa as a warrior, and Isabella as part of the guard. If you don't come to us in the next five years, then we will come to you. I assure you the Vultori are kind, and will welcome you both gladly. Your mother and I hope to see you soon, from, your loving father, Charlie."
Ness began to cry into my shoulder, and began to tearlessly cry too. "But if we join them, then you'll be part of the guard and I will never see you again!"
I closed my eyes and sighed heavily. "Ness, we don't have to think about that now, we have five years. We don't even have to think about joining them."
Ness smiled weakly into my shoulder, "You're right," She whispered.
"Of course I'm right," I laughed but it was strained. "Come on."
I dragged her to the sofa, and we sat there for the rest of the night with our arms around each other, trying not to think that one day, we would be split up from each other.
Sometimes Ness would start to cry again, and I would sooth her. We were so upset that our parents were forcing this on us that we didn't even notice the sun had risen.
I glanced at the clock. It was three in the afternoon. Crap! I was meant to meet Edward. I groaned, and Ness grabbed my hand to find out why.
"Are you going to tell Edward about this?" She asked, placing the letter in my lap.
"No, I'm not going to tell anyone, and you can't either. I can't keep my shield around everyone to keep Edward from knowing," I replied, smoothing her hair.
"You were meant to meet him today weren't you?" Ness asked.
I sighed quietly, "Yes, but I can't go now, he'll know something's up."
Ness nodded, and curled into my shoulder. We sat there until night, then decided to hunt.
***Emmett's POV***
Edward came back at around seven at night with a sad face. "Bella stood him up!" I yelled immediately, Eddie glared at me, and I was shocked to find I was right.
"Come on Emmett, lets go hunt," Jasper said to me sternly, and I knew I had to go.
I was running through the trees, chasing Jasper, when I heard it. Jasper heard it too, and ran towards me. "Was that you?" He asked.
I growled at him, "Of course not! Why would I ever cry?"
We heard it again, and Bella and Vanessa burst through the trees. They stopped when they saw us, and Jasper spoke, "Why are you so depressed?"
"None of your business!" Vanessa practically screeched at us.
"Ness..." Bella reproached her.
"No!" Vanessa cried, "It isn't any of their business!" And she ran away crying. Bella looked after her, looking as if she was about to cry too.
"Sorry, she gets angry when she gets upset," Bella smiled at us lightly, but it seemed extremely strained.
"Why are you upset?" I asked, hoping Bella would tell us.
Her teeth snapped together as get jaw clenched. "You heard her," Bella spat at us. "It's none of your business."
And she ran away, with us staring after her in utter bewilderment.
***I'm sorry it's so short, but I accidentally got my dad hooked on Slender: The Eight Pages, and he's kind of hogging my phone... The first time he played it he went straight into the Slender Man, and said "I've hit a wall." I'll upload another chapter in a bit.***
