It's been a day since Jacob came to talk to Bella. She went to Jacob's house and found out that the Quileutes, in fact, are descended from wolves...literally. I also learned I'm not allowed on the Rez because I'm a vampire.

Jacob and I are still friends. He told me that even though I'm a vampire, there's nothing that could stop him from being my friend. And honestly, I'm glad because besides Bella, he's the only friend I have.

Though lately he's been hunting Victoria and my dad is hunting Jacob so...yeah.

"I'm gonna head out for a bit," Bella said. I looked at her.

"Ok. Just...be careful." She only nodded before walking out of the house. At least she's getting out of her room more.

I was finishing up my homework when I heard footsteps in my house. My head shot up, thinking it was an intruder or something but who I saw surprised me. "Alice?"

The girl looked at me. "Blake? Where's Bella?"

I furrowed my eyebrows at her. "She went out. Why?"

"I had a vision. She jumped off a cliff and...it ended there."

I put my pencil down. "What?!"

I stood up to go and get her, but Alice stopped me. "It's on the Reservation. You can't go there, Blake."

I mentally groaned as I sat back down. We were silent for a moment, before I had to ask. "How is he?"

Alice let out a sigh. "He's coping."

"So... he's not doing well?"

The girl shook her head. "Not really. It's hard for him without you. You kept him grounded and calm, Blake."

I bit the inside of my lip. "Can I, um...can I see him?"

Alice didn't say anything. I took a deep breath. I heard the front door open and Alice sped away. I was Bella shout, frightened. "Alice?"

I walked up to them to see them hugging.

"Bella," Alice said, pushing my sister away.

"I'm sorry. I-I, I just, I can't believe your here. I-Is--"

"Would you like to explain to me how you're alive?" Alice asked angrily.

"What?" Bella asked confused.

"I saw a vision of you. You jumped off a cliff. Why in the hell would you try and kill yourself? What about Charlie?" Alice bombarded.

"I didn't try to kill myself," Bella interrupted. "I was cliff jumping. Recreationally. It was fun."

I sighed. "You scared us half to death, Bella."

"Sorry," she said.

"I have never met anyone more prone to life-threatening idiocy." Alice said. She was still a bit shaken from her vision and I don't blame her. She thought Bella died.
