"These violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which, as they kiss, consume."

The bright sun was out, shining down on the people who were all crowded around the area. Bella was running, trying to get to something before it was too late. The clock then struck noon, the bell ringing loudly for the people to cheer. As she was pushing her way out of the crowd, the people turned into leaves, brushing against her skin while she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion and saw that she was standing in the middle of the flower patch.

She found a woman walking her way as well, seeing the silhouette as she squinted her eyes to see the woman. "Gran?" She asked, waving her hand while the old woman did the same.

That was when Edward and Vanessa walked out, holding each others hands while they were dressed in a black suit and black dress. Bella gasped, turning around to face them.

"Edward, Vanessa, don't! She'll see you." Bella tried to warn, only for the couple to walk out and show off their bedazzled skin. They reached to Bella, the woman first grabbing Bella's hand and for it snuggly against her own while Edward took the other. "Okay." She muttered, getting the idea that she was meant to meet her grandmother.

The four met in the middle, something off about the elderly woman while she was speaking just as Bella was when she says, "Gran, I'd like you to meet..." she paused, taking in this detail.

Bella started panicking, lifting her hand up while putting out a finger while her older self did the same. She pulled away, seeing that it was a mirror and Edward and Vanessa smiled at her. "Happy Birthday, Bella." Edward said kissing her hand while Vanessa smiled.

"You really have aged." Vanessa teased, kissing the woman's cheek.

That was when a knock sounded off for Bella's door, the girl gasping awake while Romeo and Juliet was near her face as she closed her eyes to see that it was just a dream. Charlie opened the door, showing off his present while Bella got up slowly. "Happy Birthday." He said while walking towards his daughter.

"I thought we agreed, no presents." Bella told him.

"Well, the one from me's not wrapped, so it doesn't count." Charlie told her, giving the girl her camera with a light pink bow wrapped around it.

"That's actually great. Thanks, Dad." She mumbled, looking over it.

"It goes with this one from your mom. We coordinated. Well, she coordinated me." He told her, stuffing his hand into his pockets while Bella ripped the wrapping paper just to see a scrapbook. "It's to put your pictures in from senior year." He told her while sighing. "Senior year. How'd you get so old so fast?" He asked while she her eyes widened.

"I didn't. It's not that old." Bella told him.

"I don't know. Is that a gray hair?" He asked teasingly she panicked again.

"No. No way." She told him while getting up and looking to see a head of full brown hair.

She glared slightly at her father while he lifted his hands up in surrender. "Happy Birthday." He told her again.

"That's really funny." Bella muttered, as she started getting ready for school.

Vanessa was looking out the window, not wanting to start any drama after the events of this weekend. She felt like she was walking on thin ice, or maybe she was slowly drowning. She never had a smile back on her face because Edward never apologized, and neither did she, the two of them being stubborn and she knew that she was right.

He had no right to be so angry at her for no reason. She kept her guard up, just making Edward even more angered at her, since he couldn't get inside her head to see what was wrong. Once she saw that they were about to be by the school, she sighed. "Maybe I should just go home." She told Edward, not taking her eyes off the scenery while he rolled his eyes.

"I thought you wanted to see Bella?" He asked while the girl clenched her jaw.

"Maybe I don't want to see her if I'm in a grumpy mood. Maybe I don't want to see her if you're next to me, because you still never gave me a good reason as to why you're angry at me." She told him, the man taking a deep breath to control his anger while he sighed.

"Well, I don't know what to tell you, Vanessa." He told her while he pulled up into a parking spot and the woman tensed slightly.

"Could you at least try to be happy around Bella? I don't want her to think something is wrong." She told him, feeling slightly guilty for not telling Bella anything, but she didn't want to harm the girl.

Who knows what would happen if Vanessa got angry at her, she could possibly kill her because of her explosive rage. Ever since she got turned into a vampire she just had that urge, but suppressed it. The problem was is that she couldn't when Edward kept pushing her buttons.

She finally looked at him, Edward nodding his head. "Yeah, we don't want you going off on her." He muttered, the woman glaring at him slightly.

"Yeah, like it's only me you need to worry about. Whenever you get cranky, you get sexually frustrated. So... I don't think you can have sex with her." She told him, getting out of the car while Edward's eyes were wide as he swallowed thickly.

"I do not." He mumbled softly, finally getting out of the car while the girl smirked at him evilly.

"Yes, yes you do. Ask Emmett and Jasper. That's why they always tell you to see me once they notice it." She told him her secrets while Edward rubbed his face.

"Bella." He told her while the brunette shrugged her shoulders.

"She should know." She told him while he grabbed her shoulder.

"Fine, fine. We'll talk about it when we get home. But for now, I'm sorry. Okay, I'm sorry. I just missed you." He told her while her eyes softened.

She sighed, letting her barrier down while he smiled at her. "Thank you." He muttered and they walked over towards Bella.
