They continued to discuss the plans, while I sat slumped in a corner. They talked about the different covens, and even the Uley pack, which I could definitely assist with, but did I really want to? I didn't want Paul to get hurt, I didn't want anyone to get hurt. The whole pack was special and dear to me, but so were the Cullens.

"Summer, hello?" I saw a hand wave over my face, and I looked up to see Jasper, his permanent smug grin etched onto his face.

"You might wanna listen to this part..." He whispered, but of course all of them could hear it.

"Summer, since you're new to this, I'm going to talk about every member." Carlisle said, his eyebrows still furrowed deeply.

"First we have Aro, he is the founder of the Volturi, and his special ability is called 'Tactile Telepathy'," I nodded, showing I understood and he continued, "Then theres Marcus and Caius. Marcus has 'Relationship Identification', while Caius doesn't have any special abilities. Jane and Alec are the most threatening, Jane has 'Pain illusion', Alec has 'Sensory Deprivation'..."Carlisle continued explaining all of their special abilities, and honestly it was kind of frightening. Vampires were so powerful, could werewolves even assist in this situation?

I sighed as he finally finished, and I stood up from the white chair I was sitting in, "Well I must get going, good luck." As I was about to march out of there, Jasper latched onto my shoulder.

"We want you to help." He squeezed my shoulder gently, before letting me go. I turned to look at him, and he smiled.

I simply nodded, making my way down the stairs. I brought my hand up to my chin, thinking of when and how I should tell them I got engaged. I know that Edward knew, maybe he can help spread the word.

I rid my head of stressful thoughts, walking out of the house, only to see no truck there. I pursed my lips, and looked around, narrowing my eyes in the process.

"Thanks Emily, so kind." I grumbled, pulling out my phone and calling Paul.

He picked up after two rings and I was the first one to speak, "Emily left me all alone at the Cullens, can you come get me?"

I heard him chuckle, "Look to your left." I followed his instructions, and he was standing there, flowers in his free hand.

I stared at him, a small blush coming to my face, "Umm--" He raised his hand, silencing me and ushered me over, making me raise a brow.

Paul bowed gracefully as I made my way up to him, "My lady." He offered his arm to me, and I snorted.

"What are you doing?" I said, a laugh breaking out from my mouth.

"Nothing really." A second later he had me in his arms, a bewildered look flowing onto my face.

"Oh one of these again." I grinned, taking the flowers he was offering to me.

"Yea, you'll love it just wait."

We ran through the trees, until finally he stopped at the beach. My eyes lit up at the sight, there were two tables set up. One had food, while the other had dessert. I stared at Paul as he sat me down, he put his fingers to his lips and whistled. The whistle pierced the air, and as soon as it came out, the pack ran out from behind the trees.

I laughed at the sight. Embry and Jared were doing that weird Titanic scene, known as, "Im Flying Jack", which looked really stupid. Quil was walking normally, which was also funny  considering what everyone else was doing. Seth was laughing at Embry, as he accidentally dropped Jared. Sam was shaking his head, holding Emily in his arms as he jogged. Jacob wasn't present though, and that really hurt.

I heard that he had imprinted on Bellas daughter, which she was not happy about apparently. I smiled at the thought of Bella beating his ass, but came back to reality when all the guys stood in a line before me.

Sam gingerly sat Emily down, and she gave me a little wink, "Congratulations on your marriage!" They all tried to say at once, but Embry, Seth, and Jared were still snorting from the events that took place before.

I heard Paul let out an exhausted sigh, and I shook my head, a large grin on my face. These were the people I knew and loved, watching them trip over each other and mess around was heartwarming, knowing they haven't changed one bit.

"Thanks guys, by the way Embry your Titanic impression was beautiful." I heard them snicker even more, and Paul came up and touched my shoulder.

His face held many emotions, love, joy, and even nervousness. Seth was the first to break the comfortable silence, "Can we eat?"

I heard them start to laugh again, and I shook my head, "Go ahead." Paul rolled his eyes, placing his hand into mine, and walking over to all the food.

I looked at Emily, "I'm guessing you made all this?" But I was surprised when she shook her head no.

"No, actually. The boys helped, and let me tell you it was almost a disaster." She chuckled, thinking about the events I sadly wasn't present for.

Instead of thinking about the small little party Paul had set up for us, my mind flew to the Volturi. The one that kept bothering me was the one they called Demetri, even though his power wasn't as strong as the rest, he still sounded intimidating. My mind also went to the one they called Jane, pain illusion was her power, and that worried her greatly. Can she kill someone with that? I don't think that would be possible, considering it's illusion.

I bit my lip, and Paul seemed to notice, he squeezed my hand and looked into my eyes. He saw fear, and he wrapped me in his arms, he moved down to my ear, "Whats up baby?" He said softly, pulling me towards him.

"Something very bad is going to happen, I can just feel it."
