"Think I'll miss you forever."

The sound of arguing reaches Declan Cullens ears as he enters his home. Taking off his soccer cleats and placing against the wall he pads down the hall in his socks before entering the living room where his family are arguing.

"I cant believe you are thinking about leaving!"

"I have to!"

"You're a coward! What is Declan going to think! Did you even consider his feelings?!"

Making his appearance known Declan speaks. "What will Declan think about what?"

Silence falls upon the family as they look to their youngest. "What guys?"

Rosalie is the first to speak he towm soft. "Edward is going to stay with Denali for a while."

"What? Why? Did something happen? Edward if you slipped up it's okay, we will help you fix it. You don't have to leave."

"No, Declan. I think Isabella Swan is my singer. Her blood...it..."

"Makes you want to drain her dry." He continues as Edward silently agrees.

Placing his duffel bag down he makes brief eye contact with the rest of his family. "What does everyone else have to say about this?"

"We all believe that Edward should do what he believes will have the best results for himself."

Glancing to his father he shrugs.

"Okay, then what is the problem?"

"Rosalie thinks that leaving will cause more problems, she thinks that Ms. Swan will begin to ask questions."

"Ally? Have you had any visions?"

"No."

"I agree with Rosalie." He begins while the blonde grins triumphantly.

"However Edward should take off for a few days, if he kills Isabella then that will cause problems. Do you know how hard it will be to cover up her murder?"

"I can answer her questions to the fullest extent without revealing our secrets."

Rosalie sighs in irritation. "Fine, but if she asks questions and gets to close then she will have to be dealt with."
