Brian left the room, well; Ella pushed him out the room half naked and threw his clothes out before shutting the door. Brian stayed outside for a couple of minutes asking her what was wrong and all that crap.

---With Edward--- (A couple days earlier)

Edward was in his room listening to Ella's piano piece. It was his early birthday gift from Ella. She wasn't going to be with him on his 'human birthday' so Ella left him a CD made just for him. Listening to her music made Edward feel closer to Ella.

He closed his eyes and imagined her playing the piece. She was wearing one of those 1900's dresses and her red and orange hair was nicely curled. She looked absolutely stunning and the moon light hit her face in the just right direction that made her look like an angel.

Somehow thinking of Ella he was able to block out the rest of the world, but not entirely. Alice was always loud and so was her inner voice. Edward snapped out of it as he saw Alice's vision in her head.

It was of Brian and Ella. Brian's intentions weren't good for Edward. Edward knows that Ella feels something for Brian because they had something. He didn't want to lose Ella but he also couldn't force her to him.

Alice entered his room with a sympathetic look.

"You can't see her, so we have no idea how she'll respond." Edward turned to Alice.

"Yeah, we have that, but... we both know she loves you."

"I know. I miss her terribly though. I hate not being with her Alice. She's all I have in this world that makes sense."

Alice giggled. "Oh, Edward I didn't see you this concern when you were with Bella. Oh, this must mean it's true love." Alice twirled. "I should start planning your wedding. Have you given her the ring?"

Edward looked at his sister and shook his head.

"I didn't think it was prudent of me to propose to her while she was going to be thousands of miles away, I don't I could stand being apart while knowing she was my fiancée."

Alice thought he was right. "But you will propose when she gets back, right?"

Edward smiled weakly at his sister and nodded. Alice squealed and skipped out of the room singing the 'Marching Bride'.

Edward took out a small box from his pocket and propped it open. It had a simple ring. It was the one of his mother; it was one of the few things he had of his old family. He closed the lid and held it to his chest. He needed to know how Ella felt first before taking this step. To him it was simple because back in his time girls of fifteen were already married, but these times were different and Ella was different.

Ella was special, something you don't mess around with.

---With Ella--- (In Rome)

Ella was sitting on a chair surrounded by her fans. She had her big glasses and her fading hair was down straight. Ella smiled like nothing was wrong as she signed autographs and took pictures with the fans.

"Thanks for coming." She kissed the girl on both cheeks like it is costumed to do so in Italy. Ella didn't mind because she was half-Mexican and her relatives in Mexico would do the same.

"Thank you." The fan girl said and squealed as she walked away with a signed RIOT! CD and a R.A.G! Shirt.

The next couple of person stepped up. A group of teenage boys.
