Nessie PovI looked up at the love of my life and smiled widely; he
brought our entwined hands to his lips and kissed all of my
fingers. The small amount of blood that did pump around my
body, rushed to my cheeks. Jake chuckled wholeheartedly,
making me look at my Prada shoes; forced onto me by Auntie
Alice, his gentle hand turned my chin up to look at him.
You dont have to hide from me, Ness. I giggled lightly,
pecked his cheek and carried on walking. We walked in to
the woods, where Jake had first told me he loved me. An
image of Edward and Jake side-by-side flickered through
my mind.
Thatll never happen Ness. He said and a growl racked
through his chest.
It might! If you just try, I pleaded sadly.
Ill try when he does! he spat at me.
It was just a thought! I whispered.
Then wipe those stupid thoughts from your mind!

So now Im stupid? I snapped angrily.
No...I just...well... I didnt... I didnt mean it like that Ness,
and you know it.
Why did you say it then?
Well because you were being stupid! He bellowed his arms
began to very slightly vibrate.
I was being STUPID?! Why am I stupid?! His arms shaking
more.
Because you think we can all live in harmony!We can! I roared.
Ness... run! He roared his voice breaking.
Im not going to leave the love of my life! For fucks sake! I
LOVE YOU!
FUCKING RUN THEN! He shouted before he shifted, and
pushed me into darkness.
JPOV
I just killed the love of my life, her beautiful bloody body
lying on the forest floor; her beautiful face buried in the
dirt and leaves thatd dropped onto the forest floor, in
shreds no one would be able to recognise her. My heartbroke at the thought of what Id just done.
Im so sorry, Edward! Im sorry! Tell Bella Im sorry and that
I love her. Im near yourmeadow! Just come quickly, please.
As soon as I finished the thought, I did the worst thing
possible; I bolted leaving the only girl Id ever love in a pool
of her own blood. My four legs ran through the dark forest,

I ran further and further away, but I knew no matter how
far Id run Id never be able to forget the roar of anger,
and heartbroken sob that I heard; from the mouths of the
two most loving parents.
EPOV
My world, my heart, my beautiful wife was broken. She was
currently sat on my lap and sobbing tearlessly into my chest.
I rocked her back and forth trying to stay strong for her,when I felt like breaking down to. Carlisle walked in his face
solemn after burying our dead, mangled daughter.
Im so sorry Bella. He said as he rubbed her back gently;
she nodded against my chest, and sucked in an unnecessary
breath; she rose from my lap and walked silently up the
stairs. We all watched her go but her face, her empty eyes,
stayed the same. I rose to follow her but I hear a soft
voice from behind me.
Let me Edward, I know what shes going through. Esme
patted my hand before following Bella upstairs.
BPOV
Im going to kill him for what he did to her! To both of
them! Rosalie hissed venomously.
I second that! He cant get away with what he did to my
little sister and niece! Emmett joined in.
Well leave now then! Go pack Em,I tuned out; I didnt

want to hear how they were planning on killing my ex-best
friend. A soft knock on the door alerted me to Esmes
arrival.
Its open. I whispered sadly.
Oh Bella, she cooed as she pulled me into a tight, loving
embrace.
It hurts so much Esme,
I know sweetie but with time it gets better; I promise. I
nodded against her shoulder.How long before it does get better? I whispered.
A long time, but youve got forever.
Ive got all that time to remember her. I sobbed into her
chest.
Why dont you go and have a nice hot bath? And by the
time youre out Edward and Alice will have brought someblood back for you. She smiled, and stroked my hair away
from my face.
We all love you, dont forget that. She stepped out of my
room and closed the door with a gentle click. I walked into
our en-suite bathroom and started to run a big bubble bath.
I then walked out locked the bedroom door, stripped slowlyand then locked the bathroom door, and started lighting
some scented candles. I climbed into the big Victorian tub
and tried to relax, to forget everything; but I was angry at
everything and everyone. I stormed out of the bath and
smashed the big mirror.
Bella! Open the door! I heard Carlisle shout as I picked up

a shard of glass and ran it fiercely over my wrist.
Ah, I gasped as animal blood poured from the cut. I then
heard a massive crash and I knew that someone had barged
the door down.
Bella! Babe, open the door! Please for me! I heard Edward
shout from outside the bathroom door. At no reply I heard
him take a step back and the next thing I know the door
was in pieces around me.
Oh my God, was his broken whisper. Shes naked andbleeding. I heard him whisper again, if I was human I
wouldnt have heard him at all. He wrapped a large black
towel around my naked body and motioned for Carlisle to
come in.
Bella, how long have you been bleeding? He asked, no
longer my father in law but as a doctor. I shrugged.A couple of minutes, I whimpered as the blood continued
to pour out. He disappeared and a second later reappeared
with a first aid kit. He opened the kit and pulled out a pair
of scissors, a bandage and some antiseptic wipes. He
cleaned the cut and then wrapped the bandage before the
cut could start bleeding heavily again.Why?! Why would you do that?! Edward fumed.
Im sorry Edward, I mumbled pathetically.
Ive lost you once, Bella. You think I want to lose you
twice?
Im sorry. I just miss her so much, I wailed tears forming
in my eyes.

You think I dont? I stiffened in his arms, only just
properly realizing hed lost his daughter and had thought
hed almost lost his wife.
Oh Edward, Im so sorry. I said as I wrapped my arms
around his neck and forced a kiss onto his soft lips. He
rubbed my back as he started to kiss me back. He gently
lifted me from the cold bathroom floor, trying to keep the
towel in place as he rose, our family dispersed out of the
room as he placed me on the bed.Try and rest; Ill go and get the blood I got for you but
then Ill be right back. Ok? I nodded and smiled as he
looked at me before he left. I steadily walked to our
wardrobe and pulled on some grey sweats and a baggy
London sweatshirt. I sat back on the bed, and pulled out my
sleek phone; bought by Edward as he hated my old one asmuch as hed hated my truck.
Hey Bells, how are you sweetie?
Oh, daddy! I cried sadly.
Bella whatswrong?Charlie asked alarmed. Has he hurt
you? He asked, outraged.
Shes gone! I sobbed tearlessly again.Who has Bells?
Daddy can I come round?
Of course Bells, Ill see you in a couple of minutes. I hung
up the phone and slid it into my bedside table drawer. I
heard Edward slowly making his way up the stairs, alerting
me to his presence; I hurried to the window climbed onto

the closest tree, and threw up my shield so he wouldnt be
able to track me.
Charlie POV
Of course Bells, Ill see you in a couple of minutes. I put
the phone back on the hook, and ran back into the living
room. I threw a blanket over the couch, picked up the pizza
boxes and chucked them into the bin. I opened the curtains
slightly and saw Bella walking up the drive. I threw open thefront door and opened my arms ready for a hug. She ran up
the porch steps and straight into my arms.
Whats wrong, sweetie? I asked as I stroked her hair
away from her face that was buried into by shoulder.
Shes gone! She sobbed as I gently pulled her into the
lounge.Who has Bells? I asked pulling her from my arms to try
and get her attention.
Nessie! She wailed as I stiffened.
Well we can send out a search party for her. I smiled
when I was panicking inside.
No shes properly gone! My beautiful daughter sobbed as Ipaced in front of her.
Well we could still find her! I said determined.
DAD! My daughter is dead! She shouted and then began
crying again. I stilled and looked at my daughter, sat down
next to her and cried silently.
How? I asked, my voice croaked.

A wolf. Last night. My Bella had changed, so much so that
I didnt know when she was lying anymore.
Right, I said as I rose to go and get my gun. Bell, who
obviously knew what I was doing, interrupted me.
He... its already dead. Emmett shot it. She stated flatly.
Right, I sighed as I sat back down.
What am I going to do daddy? Bella asked helplessly.
You could always try for another one, I suggested, but in
the back of my mind I knew that wouldnt happen. I saw outof the corner of my eye that Bella was nodding. The phone
startled me back into reality; I answered it slowly willing
that the station didnt need me.
Charlie! Bellas gone an-...
Shes here. I interrupted.
Oh thank god. I heard Edward say. Illbe right over. Ihung the phone up to see Bella unravelling a bandage.
What happened? I asked worriedly.
I just tripped and had a nasty cut. She smiled weakly.
Ok then. I said unconvinced; I heard Bella give a faint
gasp as she looked down at her wrist.
Whats wrong? Is there a scar?No, theres nothing. She stated as she ran her thumb over
her pale wrist. Im just going to the toilet. She smiled
sadly and rose. A slow knock on the door alerted me to
Edwardss presence. I opened it and stared directly into his
amber eyes.
Lets step outside for a minute, shall we Edward? I asked

rhetorically, making him step back onto the porch.
I dont know what youve done to my daughter; and the way
you just stiffened means obviously youve done something.
But if you dont get her another kid soon, not as a
replacement but as something for Bella, I will personally cut
your balls off and feed them to the dogs at the station,
ok? Edward gulped and nodded.
Good, glad thats sorted out. I opened the door again and
led him into the longue.
BPOV
The scar I was hoping for, to remind me of Nessie, wasnt
there. There was nothing to even hint Id cut myself.Id
just excused myself from the longue to go to the bathroom;
and was currently listening to the speech my dad was givingto Edward. Sad at knowing that Edward would never be able
to give me another child; I pulled the knife out of my
sweatshirt pocket, one that Id nicked from Charlies
kitchen while he was on the phone to Edward; and ran it
across my wrist again. I quickly re-bandaged it when I heard
Edward say to Charlie that he was coming to check up onme. I quickly wiped knife clean and stashed it in my pocket.
Bella, I know what youre doing so just come out now!
Edward hissed angrily; I opened the door and looked up at
him with my big onyx eyes.
What am I doing Edward? I asked innocently.
Cuttingyour wrist again? Edwards stated starting to

doubt himself. He breathed in deeply and stiffened.
You were werent you? I looked down and nodded my head
slightly.
Bella! He growled, but Im sure if her could have hed have
screamed, shouted, bellowed. Whatever, hed have made his
anger known.
There was no scar Edward, I just wanted to... you know...
make sure.
What Bella? Make sure what? That you were doing itright? He stopped as he saw me nod again. He wrapped me
into a hug and kissed the top of my head.
Shall we just forget it? I asked quietly. I felt him nod
again and sigh deeply. I untangled myself from his strong
arms and padded down stairs
You okay Bells? Charlie asked worriedly, I looked up at himwith big eyes and nodded.
Were gonna head off now Charlie. Edward intervened; he
smiled and walked back to the Volvo.
Youre always welcome here Bella. Remember that. I
nodded and kissed his cheek before joining Edward.
EPOV
We drove back to our house in silence, Bella looking at the
pouring rain outside.
Bella? Sweetie are you ok?She looked at me and nodded
slightly. The thing with Bella not being able to blush
anymore was that I couldnt always tell when she was lying.

As I pulled up to the house, Bellas shield dropped for a
quick second; but it was long enough for me to hear her
current thought.
Need to find him. Need to ask him. I frowned trying to
understand what it meant; as soon as I touched the gear
stick about to put the car in park, Bella was flying into the
house. I quickly parked the car, locked it and followed her
into the house. She ran upstairs, I followed her and saw her
turn into Carlisles study; I was tuning into theirconversation when his thought pounded into my head.
Edward! Privacy! Please! My father scolded angrily. I
sighed dejected and padded back downstairs.
CPOV
Bella flew into my study without even knocking, my headwhipped up in surprise.
Hello Bella, I smiled, I could her Edward currently
hovering outside my door.Edward! Privacy! Please! I
scolded angry that hed thought it was ok to eavesdrop.
What can I do for you Bella? I asked concerned at her
scared and haunted eyes.Its gone, she whispered. I frowned in confusion; thinking
she was still talking about Ness.
I know, I said sadly, Bella looked up at me confused.
You know? her eyebrows were knitted together in
confusion.
Well of course, I buried her. I stated slowly.

No! I mean about the scar I should have, Bella said looking
down at her wrist, and ran her thumb over it gently.
Oh! Thatll be because when the venom detects and injury,
without you being headless or burning, it starts to heal it.
Oh, she mumbled sadly; I leaned forward, resting my
elbows on the edge of the dark mahogany wood desk.
Bella, why do you want a scar so badly?
To remember her, I breathed in deeply, surprised by her
answer.So you want to remember her with something that caused
you pain? Not when you saw her first steps, or when she
called your name, or when she would climb into bed with you
and Edward and just ask you both to hold her? Bella, if you
can only remember her because of a scar, I pity you. Bella
sat in the chair opposite, mouth agape in shock, tears in hereyes as I walked out, and closed the door gently behind me.
Edward met me on the stairs and glared at me as we heard
Bellas broken sobs rack through the silent house. I looked
down, feeling guilty for making my daughter cry.
Good job, Dad. Edward muttered as he passed me.
EPOV
I hesitantly opened the door of the study, to see Bella
curled into a ball on a big brown leather chair and rocking
slowly.
Bella? I asked I approached the chair hoping I wouldnt
frighten her. I picked her up slowly and placed her on my lap

as she whimpered helplessly.
I want to gohunting, Edward She whispered so quietly I
had to strain to hear her.
Ok, Ill sort everything out and then we can go. She
nodded against my chest; I gently pushed her up so I could
guide her to the forest outside our house (a different one
to where Ness died.) When we passed Carlisle on the stair,
Bella flinched into my side. Carlisle looked down at the silver
stairs, ashamed at himself.Im sorry Edward.He thought to me as I passed. When we
got outside Bella ran elegantly after an elk, not her
favourite but fast enough to keep her busy. I ran in the
opposite direction, hearing the fast sound of a mountain
lions heart. I leapt onto the scared creature, and sunk my
venom coated teeth into its furry throat. Its furious roarsturned into nearly silent mewls as I drained its limp body. I
kicked the empty carcass under a big oak tree, where itd
be hidden by its shadow. I followed the honey, freesia, lilac,
lavender and cooked bread smell of Bella. I flew into a
bubbling river and stared down at my wet feet and trousers;
I climbed onto the sloped bank on the other side and triedto trace her scent. I cursed loudly, and punched a tree, at
my recklessness. Id gone and lost my wife.
BPOV
I heard Edward curse loudly and then a deafening crack. Id
only run because I was cramped, I had that feeling that

everywhere I went me as being watched observed. Checked
on. My clothes were dry now from running so fast, I knew
though that Id run far enough that he wouldnt be able to
track me for a while. I stopped when I felt water trickle
down my back; I looked up confused, and saw blindingly
clean snow. I checked around and saw the town Id run into
was deserted at the moment, seeing a sign a few metres
back I jogged leisurely over to it. I gaped at the blue and
white sign; I checked my watch.Ladies and gentlemen, I, Bella Swan, had run to Alaska in
under an hour; and Edward told me he used a car! Id have
to race him, when I returned. I felt my phone vibrate in my
jean pocket; I pulled it out and read the text from Edward.
Where are you love? Ill come and get you. XXX E
I quickly typed out my reply.I love you, Ill be back soon. XXXX Your Bella
I turned off my phone knowing Edward would start calling
soon, I know that Edward would worry even more now; but I
didnt want to hear the sorrow in his voice if I answered. I
walked slowly through the town until I saw a four star hotel,
it was painted black making it stand out in the fresh, cleansnow. I walked into the large building, and looked around; it
had large black and white marble pillars up to the high
beamed ceilings. There were large dark red chairs and sofas
in one corner of the room; with a ceiling high bookcase that
had a ladder attached to them so you could reach the books
at the top. I smiled to myself, the Cullen instinct had

obviously wormed its way into my body. I must thank Alice.
I walked over to a man that was tapping furiously at the
computer set in front of him; he looked up at me and smiled
kindly as I approached. I gasped, the man stood in front of
me had bright gold eyes; the same as me.
How can I help you, Madame? He asked politely in a
French accent.
I...erm... I... I need a room, please. Under the name Mrs
Black please. I stuttered still shocked.How much and how long? He asked looking down at his
computer; I took my black and red purse out of my pocket,
I had about twenty thousand dollars in cash and about four
hundred and seventy thousand dollars on my card, but you
can track cards; which I knew Edward would probably be
doing.Three or four thousand dollars? For about two to maybe
five nights? I asked my statement coming out as a
question. He nodded and typed at his sleek computer. He
passed me a green card that had my room number on it in
white numbers; I murmured my thanks as I walked to my
room. I slid the card into the small slot near the doorhandle, which flashed a green light, letting me in. I took a
quick shower, trying to let all my worries disappear with the
water that was gurgling down the plug. I sighed and stepped
out of the water which was now going cold. I wrapped a
large bathrobe around my pale body and a smaller white
towel around my now black hair. I looked at the digital clock
-

on the bedside table and sighed, it was only four oclock. I
dressed in the same clothes realizing I would need to go
shopping soon, and walked out of my room with the key and
my purse; Id purposely left my phone in the room so I
wouldnt be tempted to turn it back on and call Edward. As
I was slipping my purse into my pocket I accidentally walked
into a giggling couple.
Oh my god, Im so sorry! I said, the red eyed couple
nodded their understanding and walked around my shockedstatue. I pulled myself together, walked into the stunning
reception and waved a not-doing-anything- staff member
over to me.
How may I be of assistance, Madam? He asked seriously,
his gold eyes shimmering in the intense light.
What is this place? I asked looking around the room tosee more Vampires pottering about.
This, Madam, is the Crepuscule hotel. Crepuscule means
Twilight in French Madam and Twilight is, as you probably
know, the safest time for our kind. I stared at him blankly,
hoping the look on my face would encourage him to say more.
He sighed slightly annoyed.It is basically a Vampire hotel, Madam. I opened my mouth
to ask him another question, but he was already making his
way to another couple who were also looking slightly
perplexed. I made my way over to the helpful French
receptionist, he grinned at me widely.
Wheres the nearest tattoo place? I asked quietly.

About two minutes away. Just turn left at the end of this
street, its called the Midnight Eclipse. He smiled at me
again; I nodded my thanks and slid him a ten dollar tip. I ran
through the deserted streets to Midnight Eclipse, just as I
turned to open the door I ran into, none other than Tanya!
She scowled at me straight away then smirked realizing
that I must be heading in.
Getting something done Bella? She smirked and raised a
perfectly plucked eyebrow.Just a tattoo, what about you? I asked politely when in
fact wanted to slap her.
Oh I didnt know Edward liked tattoos now, hed always told
me hed hated them. I just got a piercing. I scanned her
body quickly and saw no new marks.
Well Edward will like this one. I cant see any knewpiercings Tanya, is it somewhere kinky? I smirked at her
expression, and walked into Midnight Eclipse. I walked over
to the guy who was doodling idly on a piece of paper, his
ears pierced so much it was more metal than flesh.
Hi, Id like a tattoo please. I said chirpily, the guy looked
at me amusement shining brightly in his eyes.Youve come to the right place then. He smirked cheekily,
he handed me a form to fill in about my change and if there
had been any problems. I took it back to him, and he pointed
me to the door I should go through to wait for the guy
whod do my tattoo. I opened the door, and pounced on the
guy whose teeth were hovering over a small womans neck,
-
8/4/2019 A Little bit of Romance and A LOT of Complication
18/113
who was shaking in fear.
STOP! I roared, and threw him away from the woman who
was whimpering helplessly. I glared at the man who was
sneering at me from the corner, and then led the woman to
the door.
WHY DID YOU DO THAT?! SHE WAS MINE! he roared
back, in a strong Texan accent, when I returned.
SHES HUMAN! IN MY PRESENCE YOU WONT BE
DRINKING FROM HUMANS! I bellowed; the guy seethedquietly as I took a seat on the bed.
What would you like? he spat at me venomously.
Id like 22/7/ 1995 in fancy writing, and then 14/2/2012
underneath it. Renesmee on my wrist, and a small red heart
underneath her name. The guy started moving around as I
talked, he placed two pots of black and red ink on the tablenext to the bed. He glared at me as he sat down, and then
pulled on a pair of white gloves.
This will hardly hurt, you cant touch it for a couple of
hours but then you should be ok. He said as he slid the
stool, hed be sitting on, closer to me. I nodded and lay back
on the bed, thinking of Edwards face when hed see my newtattoo. Of course hed be angry at first, hed always droned
on about how I should respect my body and leave it be,
plain, white and cold, the way he liked it. Then hed realise
how important it was to me and get one matching. I opened
my eyes from my day dream, to see the guy switching ink
pots. All he had to do now was the little red heart. I stared
-

at the numbers that were now permanently etched into my
skin. I started thinking about my family back in Forks and
then cursed myself for forgetting about Alice. I quickly let
my shield up, and sighed in relief knowing I must be safe,
and reminded myself not to let it down; ever again.
APOV
Youre wife is a clever bitch, I said frustrated that Id
almost had her, when she must have remembered me. Thenangry that itd taken her this long. Edward smiled from the
couch, the first smile hed cracked since shed gone.
I... I...I dont know what to do now Edward. Im sorry. I
whispered as I pulled my brother into a tight hug. My
beautiful husband walked into the room, and smiled at me
feeling the effect hed just had one me; I stuck my tongueout at him as he winked knowing that that made me want
him more. I released Edward and walked over to him, and
wrapped my small arms around his waist. He rubbed my back
soothingly.
I could try and follow her scent, if youd like Edward.
Jasper said. Edward looked up at Jasper and smiled sadly;which was his way of saying yes. Jasper nodded at him,
placed a hungry kiss on my lips and flew out of the door.
JPOV
I flew out of the door and into the forest where theyd
been hunting before Bella had run off. I jumped over the

river and ran north, after about ten minutes of running I
caught Bellas scent. I stilled and let my instincts kick in. I
ran into a small town in Alaska. I carried on following it until
I realised I was in a large hotel. I walked over to the large
reception desk.
Hello, Im looking for Bella Cullen. I smiled at the gold
eyed vampire. I then realised I must have walked into the
vampire hotel. The vamp typed on his sleek computer and
shook his head at me.Im sorry sir we dont have a Miss Cullen here. I thought
to myself, Bella always used Cullen; she adored being
married to Edward and always introduced herself as Mrs
Cullen.
Ok then. Maybe a Miss Swan. The guy typed on his
computer.A Miss Swan also isnt here. I hissed at the vamp, and
leaned over the desk, and made his emotion fear more
prominent.
Listen. My wife is in here. I hissed, thinking that was the
only way he was ever going to give me her key.
Im sorry; sir, but we dont have either of those names.The French accented vamp apologized.
Ok, well shes got large gold eyes and mahogany hair, which
almost looks black. Slightly on the thin side, full lips and a
gorgeous smile. Checked in a couple of days ago; she wont
have spent much. I glared at him as I described Bella,
recognition flew across his face.

You mean Mrs Black? I nodded Bella was smart; using the
last name of a man she now completely despised. The French
vamp fumbled around the desk and then withdrew a green
card.
Go down this hall, he said as he indicated with his hands.
Her room is number 547. I nodded my head at him in
thanks. I walked into Bellas room and made my way to the
chair, which was placed in the corner of the room. This
room practically screamed Bella, plain but oozing elegance. Iheard Bella swipe her card, so she could get into the room,
she was staring intently at her wrist as she walked in. She
threw her key card on the side board that rested near the
door. I smirked at her, realizing she still hadnt noticed I
was here. Bella looked up at me.
Oh fuck. She said simply. She turned ready to fly throughthe door; but I was faster, I was stood in front of the door
before shed even finished turning.
Going somewhere Bells? I smirked again, she opened her
mouth ready to answer back to me when she sighed in
defeat; and plopped onto the large bed. I sat down next to
her and pulled her into a large hug.Im sorry Jazz. She whispered into my chest.
Its ok Bells; we just wantto know why you ran. I soothed
and let every emotion she had pour into my body.
Everyone was watching me, I felt like I had no privacy; and
Carlisle, the disappointment I got off Carlisle was awful. I
nodded and released her from my hug

Do you want to stay any longer or can we go home? I asked
slowly.
Can we stay a little longer? Theres a guy I need to talk to.
I nodded again and got up off the bed.
Im going to buy a guitar, you stay here. Remember Bells I
am the best tracker in the family so Ill know where to find
you. I threatened, Bella gulped and nodded. I walked out of
the room with a big smile; I pulled my phone out and rang
Edward, he answered immediately.Have you found her?
Hi, toyou too, Im fine thanks for asking, how are you? I
asked sarcastically.
Jazz! Edward growled angrily.
Yes Edward, Ive found her.
Thank god, when do you think youll arrive?Arrive? I asked genuinely perplexed.
Yeah, what time will you be back?
Oh. Bella wants to stay a little longer Edward. She feels
cramped back home. Ill get her to call you; but I swear if
youre angry at her Ill kill you.
Thanks Jazz. He sighed before he hung up. I walked overto the French receptionist.
If you let Mrs Black out of this hotel I will chop youre
balls off, got it? He nodded eyes wide in terror.
Good, Ill be back in about half an hour.

I turned on my mobile and then switched it back off when I
saw I had 284 missed calls and 1738 texts. I sighed and
realised Jazz hadnt specified where I stay; I could go out
of the room, just not the hotel presumably. I opened my
room door and scanned the long corridor, not seeing anyone
I crept out of my room. I walked into the grand reception
area when I heard someone calling my name. I turned to see
the French receptionist hurrying over to me.Madame Ive been given strict instructions not to let you
out of the hotel. He said worriedly, wringing his hands on
his smart black jacket.
I just want to stand outside in the snow. I smiled trying to
dazzle him; but trying to dazzle a vampire is harder than
trying to dazzle a human.Im sorry Madam but I cant allow it. I ignored him and
walked over to the entrance of the large hotel; when I was
tackled from behind. I was then flung over a shoulder of a
large muscled vampire. I kicked the guy hard repeatedly but
it didnt affect him, I sighed and started to struggle on his
shoulder.Might as well give in, honey. A gruff voice told me.
Im not that kind of woman. I snapped at him, he chuckled
throatily, and slapped my ass. I stopped struggling, shocked
at what hed done before I started screaming loudly. He
then ran quickly into my room, and tied me into the chair
that Jazz had been sitting on when I first saw him. I

huffed at the man angrily.
I hate you; and I expect a refund! I screamed loudly. The
next moment the door swung open revealing Jazz, with a
white guitar on his back, and a large amused smirk on his
face.
JPOV
Mr Black! I heard as I walked into the hotel with my new
guitar hanging on my back. I kept walking and then turnedaround realising the vamp meant me. The French
receptionist was hurrying towards me.
Yes? I asked impolitely.
Mr Black... weve had aslight problem with your wife. I
frowned, then realised he meant Bella.
Youdidnt let her go did you? I growled at theinsufferable man.
No... No shes still here.
Then what is it?
She wanted to leave and... Well now shes tied up in your
room sir. With a security guard to make sure she doesnt
escape. I smiled imagining a feisty Bella tied up with aguard.
Thank you. The vamp nodded and then scurried back to his
desk. I ran back to the room in a flash and opened the door
to Bella who was currently demanding a refund. I waved the
security guard off who winked at Bella as he left. I smirked
in amusement as she glared at me unhappily.

I told you to stay put Bells. I smiled as I untied her,
trying not to laugh at her face.
I wanted to stand in the snow! I think better in the snow!
She huffed angrily. I crouched so I could untie her feet
which were slightly red from the kicking shed probably
done. I turned around and removed my guitar and propped it
against the wall. Bella growled from behind me, and then was
on my back. I stood shocked as she tried to wrestle me to
the ground.Its quite disconcerting, isnt it? She snarled by my ear.
Game on, I thought to myself. I shook her off; and
crouched into a protective stance, then raised my eyebrow
at her. She growled at me angrily then slid into her own
stance; which was her right leg stretched out, her left leg
folded into her chest and then her two hands keeping hersteady on the floor. It was a pretty good stance, keeping
the essential parts of her body protected.
I left because I needed space Jazz.
Ill give you space, I just need to be with you or know
where youll be. I said as I slowly approached her.
Thats not space. She growled and came at me.You have a point, but I care about you Bells. We all do. I
said as I knocked her left leg from under her, causing her
to topple over onto her back.
I know you do but I still need space, why do you go hunting
without Alice sometimes? She taunted me as she jumped
back up and threw a punch at my chest, which threw me into

a wooden table. I growled at her, dismissing her point.
Thats not the point. I said as I recovered, letting
thousands of techniques run through my mind.
Yes it is. You need to get away from Ali, and I need to get
away from all of you sometimes. I growled at her, and leapt
ready to jump onto her; she saw me leap and rolled to her
left making me land on the bed. Bella climbed onto my chest,
using all her weight to try and keep me pinned to the bed.
I love Ali, but I never feel I need to get away from her. Isaid as I flipped us over so I was sat on her stomach.
Yes you do. Otherwise you would go shopping with her all
the time. She huffed, struggling to roll me over. I pinned
her hands above her head in one of my large hands.
Im not stupid Bella. You think Id only have one closet if I
went shopping with her every time? I smiled and placed myteeth, which were glistening with venom, over her jugular.
I win. I whispered.
Can you teach me that? She asked hoarsely, as I climbed
off her. I smiled at her, as she readjusted her top, and
nodded at her.
BPOV
I smiled at Jazz as he sat in the chair with a book.
Im going to talk to that man now. I said after Id re-
adjusted my clothes and brushed my hair. Jazz stood up but
immediately sat back down at my glare.
Where will I find you if you dont come back in two hours?

I smiled at him and walked out of the room.
Stay put Jazz. I smiled as I heard him laugh at me; taking
the piss of him. I glared at the security guard and
receptionist who were having a discussion at the reception
desk; the security guard winked at me again and chuckled
loudly when I flipped him off. I walked back to the tattoo
parlour and asked to see James, they guy whod done my
Nessie tattoo.
Hey Bella, he smiled at me.Hey James do you think you could do me a massive favour?
He smiled and nodded.
Do you think you could come back to Forks with me?
Wow... erm... when? he asked, obviously shocked at my
question.
Wellits Thursday today, and I need to leave tomorrow Imuttered to myself. Tomorrow afternoon, around fourish?
I asked.
Can I think about it? I nodded instantly.
Of course but if you could text me as soon as possible with
your answer. My number is 07320946634. I reeled off,
hugged him and left. I walked back to the hotel practicallyskipping; I looked down at my wrist in reminder of Ness and
felt myself smile knowing shed be happy for me. I thanked
the doorman and walked straight to my room; I opened the
door and saw Jazz in the exact same place. I giggled lightly
and told Jazz he could move.
You know you need to ring Edward. Jazz whispered; I

looked down at my feet trying to avoid his persuasive eyes.
Come on Bells, hes really worried about you. I sighed in
defeat and pulled my phone out. I turned it on, greeted with
the alert of my missed calls and messages flashing on
screen. I rang Edward, he picked up instantly.
Oh my god Bella! Are you ok? I smiled; and tears formed
in my eyes hearing his voice made me miss home.
Im fine, Im ok. Jazz is looking after me. How are you?
Im ok Bella, better now after hearing your voice. Is Jasperwith you? I saw Jazz shaking his head from the corner of
my eye.
No,hes... out. I finished lamely.
Then... BELLA WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!
Jazz ripped the phone away from me as I flung myself onto
the bed and sobbed. Id understood his anger, but I thoughthed be so happy to hear my voice that he wouldnt care.
JPOV
I ripped the phone out of Bellas hand and stormed out the
room.
Bella? Edward asked, his voice was gentle again.WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT EDWARD? I screamed at
him, I heard a few doors open down the corridor.
Jasper? I heard him question, I could almost feel his
queasiness through the phone.
Yeah its Jasper. I seethed.
Wheres Bella? he questioned.

On her bed crying; good job by the way.
Oh God. He said; I could practically see him running his
hands through his hair.
Yeah,Oh God you know Edward I think she was going to
come home tomorrow with a surprise for you. He blew out a
breath and began to speak.
Forget it, Ive got to go and soothe Bella. I hung up and
walked back into our room and slammed the door loudly. I
walked over to Bella who was curled into a ball on the bed.Hey, I soothed trying to even out her emotions.
H-h-h-h-he was s-s-s-so an-an-ang-angry. Bella sobbed
out.
Yeah he was, but I dealt with him. I smiled at her as I
picked her up and slid her into the king sized bed. I ordered
some animal blood for us from room service, and opened thedoor so they could get in without either of us having to get
out of the bed.
Are we going home tomorrow? I asked Bella, whose head
was resting against my chest and her eyes closed. There
was a hesitant knock on the door, and a small woman
wheeled in two large jugs of animal blood.Thank you, I and Bella said in unison. The small woman
nodded and then flew out of the room.
I think so, Bella said, answering my previous question her
eyes still closed.
Jazz?
Yeah Bellie?

30/113
Will you protect me from him? She asked timidly.
I think you can protect yourself, but yeah I will. I felt her
smile against my chest and whisper a faint thank you.
So I was thinking Bellie, maybe we could build a training
area; just for the two of us. I heard her gasp.
You like that idea?
Yeah, and to make sure the others cant get in we could
have, like, a hand thing that scans your hand to let you in. I
smiled and poured us both a glass of blood.Yeah or one for the eyes. I smiled.
Nah, we all have the same colour eyes. I laughed at her
silliness.
It doesnt work like that Bells.
Well the Mr-I-Know-Everything how does it work? She
laughed, challenging me.It scans your retina or something like that,
See! You dont even know properly! Bella giggled, and then
I realised me and Bella were going to be best friends. We
talked into the hours of Friday morning, before Bella
decided shed go and have a shower at mid day. I heard her
turn the shower on, and then sigh delicately as she steppedin; and started singing Happy Ending by Mika.
BPOV
I stepped out of the shower, and wrapped a large towel
around me. I crept out of the bathroom and saw Jazz
sitting on the bed.
-
8/4/2019 A Little bit of Romance and A LOT of Complication
31/113
Can I use the bathroom now? he asked, knowing Id get
changed while he was in the shower. I nodded at him and
then realized I hadnt gone shopping, so I had no clothes.
Jazz? I asked timidly, just before he went into the
bathroom.
YeahBellie?
Would you go and get me some clothes, please? Jazz
laughed, kissed my forehead and nodded.
What sizes?A 34 C bra please, size 6 panties and jeans and size 8 top
please. I said looking down, knowing if I could Id be
blushing bright red. Jazz coughed clearly uncomfortable
and hurried out the door. I walked over to a large white
dressing table, and started to blow dry my hair. After about
twenty minutes Jazz returned with a large white bag, hesmiled kindly at me threw the bag on the bed and ran into
the bathroom. I opened the bag hesitant to see what hed
bought me, I pulled out the dark red and black bra and put
it on quickly and then stopped as I realized hed bought me
a matching thong. I growled his name and heard him laugh
from inside the bathroom.Sorry Bellie; couldnt resist it. He laughed, not sounding
the least sorry. I growled again and tugged them on
underneath the towel; I rummaged through the bag again
and found some black skinny jeans which I loved instantly,
and a red turtle neck shirt. I sat back at the dressing table,
and started to curl my dark hair. Jazz walked out of the

bathroom, a prominent smirk on his face, with a towel
wrapped around his hips.
I hate you, I snarled at him; he took one look at my face
and burst out laughing.
But you look great Bellie.
Whatever. I smiled as I flipped him off. He laughed and
pulled out some boxers from the bag. He then got dressed
in the clothes hed worn for the past three days. I checked
my phone and saw I had a new text from an unknownnumber.
Will meet you outside your hotel at half three
Jamesx
I smiled and text him a thank you, and then started
throwing mine and Jazzs dirty clothes, his old boxers, into
the white bag. We ordered some more animal blood and thendecided to check out at two thirty. We walked into
reception area, talking animatedly to each other.
Wed like to check out please. I smiled to the new
receptionist.
Of course, Madame, under what name please?
Mrs Black. I said to the young vampire, who must havebeen changed in his early twenties. He clicked away on the
computer and smiled up at us.
OK, well Ill need your keys and its five thousand dollars
thank you.
I opened my purse, as Jazz slid the cards to the man, and
withdrew the correct amount. I was about to slide it over to

him when Jazz placed his hand on my arm.
Why dont we split it? He asked me.
Jazz, you werent even here the full days.
No, but I used the bed and the bathroom and all the other
things. I huffed knowing hed be stubborn on the matter.
Fine. I placed two thousand and five hundred dollars back
in my purse, as Jazz withdrew it from his black wallet. He
shifted the white guitar than hung on his back as he placed
his wallet back into his back pocket. We walked into thelibrary area, and sat on two large arm chairs that were
opposite from each other.
Ok lets play twenty questions, and you HAVE to answer
them. Jazz said, almost bouncing in his seat.
Ok. I said hesitantly and then started to laugh at his
excited expression.Ok who was your first kiss?
Edward, I replied instantly. Whats your favourite
colour?
Brown, whats your favourite animal? Obviously thinking
not to hunt, I replied.
Tiger,whats your favourite season?Autumn, whats your favourite time of day? Jazz smiled as
I considered it.
The middle of the night, whats your favourite gem?
Quartz, whats your favourite song?Jazz asked.
Dont have one, whats your favourite land mark?

dreamy look on his face as he answered.

Hail, how long did it take for you to learn the guitar? I
asked.

Honeymoon, favourite letter? I asked, and shrugged whenJazz cocked his eyebrow at me.
B, what did you want to be when you were a kid?
Teacher of disabled kids, favouriteplace youve lived? I
asked hoping hed reveal a bit about the Cullen past.
Forks or Texas, best smell in the world?
Lavender, do you believe in soul mates?

No, secret passion in life? He whispered his question as if
trying to keep it a secret.
To be an artist, favourite place to swim?
Bahamas, you wish you lived in?
London, left or right?
Right, candles or the sun? Jazz smiled.
Candles, want to have an insert name as an animal?Jazz
chuckled loudly at my question, making other guests tut at
him.Horse, wish you could play the?
Guitar, favourite TV show?
Ill teach you if you like and Friends, favourite sport? I
smiled and nodded at Jazzs kind offer.
Swimming, favourite flower?
Rose, favourite Cullen?Twenty questions up and time to go. I smiled as he glared
at me, as I rose from the chair. I walked out the hotel and
saw James leaning on a black Mercedes.
Whos that? Jazz asked from next to me.
James, hes doing me a favour. I smiled and went over to
hug him.
JPOV
I followed behind Bella and introduced myself to James.
Im Jasper Whitlock, I said and held out my hand for him
to shake.
THE Jasper Whitlock, he asked in a Texan accent. I

stiffened then nodded.
Probably. I let go of his hand and Bella looked up at me
questioningly. I then realised shed forgotten about my
scars.
I was a legend back in Texas, one of the best at fighting,
training and killing vampires. I reminded her softly; she
stiffened and then relaxed when I sent waves of calm over
her. I looked deep into her eyes and saw a pool of trouble; I
sent sleepiness over her hoping shed conk out long enoughto forget about everything thatd happened. I continued to
stare at her, then realising what I was doing she started to
fight me, but I kept pounding the waves over her. She
glared at me just before her heavy eye lids closed, and she
fell into my arms.
Oh my god is she ok? James spit out quickly, lookingaround.
Shes fine, shes just tired. I said as I swept her into my
arms bridal style.
Vampires dont get tired. James said slowly as if I was
going mad.
I gave her a little help. I shifted Bella so I was holdingher in one arm, shrugged off my guitar and handed it to
James; and then gave him the white bag. I re-adjusted Bella
in my arms so shed be comfortable, as I continued to send
the sleep waves over her.
Can we get going now then? I asked and used my head to
gesture at the car hed been leaning on.

Of course. He opened the back doors so I could rest Bella
on the back seats. I placed her head as close to the door on
the right as possible, without it being in a place to get hit if
there was a bump in the road. I then had to fold her knees
behind the passenger seat because she was too long to lie
straight. I took off my shirt and folded it to make a cushion
for her. I slid it under her head, and climbed into the
passenger seat. We drove in silence with me occasionally
giving James instructions. As we pulled up into our longdrive I stopped with the pounding waves, I heard Bella
groan lightly and I rushed to the back of the car to help her
out.
Oh my god, I heard her whisper lightly, I had to strain to
hear her, she moved her gaze away from my toned chest
and up to my face. I offered her my hand, which she gladlytook as she pushed herself up and out of the car. We all
walked slightly tentatively into the house.
Jazz! I heard my wife shout as she flung herself into my
arms. I felt my heart sink a little, as I saw Edward pull Bella
into a tight embrace; and I realised I was falling for my
brothers wife.
BPOV
I felt my heart sink a little as Alice flew into his arms. I
smiled at him shyly over Edwards shoulder; he returned it
and started talking to Alice.
-
8/4/2019 A Little bit of Romance and A LOT of Complication
38/113
Bella, Im so sorry for being angry at you! I was just
worried. Please say you can forgive me!
Of course, Edward. I smiled and kissed his lips gently. I
spun around and introduced James to him.
Edward, meet James. James, meet Edward; my husband.
Edward stuck his hand out for James to shake, and they
both started squeezing hard on each others hands.
James can make vampires body parts work again. He can
make us both human so we can have another child Edward.Edward stared at James and then me; his small lopsided
smile turned into a massive grin as he twirled me around the
room. James gestured to us all that we sit down.
Ok so whatll happen is Ill change Edward for a week; hes
got a week to get her pregnant. Nearing the end of the
week your heart rate will start to slow down, and someonewill need to change you in that time or youll die. James
stated simply, Edward nodded at James to continue.
Then if Bella becomes pregnant; which she should as I have
a very high success rate. Shell stay human for the nine
months. A week after the child is born your heart rate will
begin to decrease; and youll need to be changed back tovampire too.
So their child would be human? Carlisle asked.
Yeah, but you can obviously change them into a vampire
when you felt it was appropriate. We all nodded at him, and
James clapped his hands together loudly.
Ready to do it now then? Me and Edward looked at each

other and nodded. I saw Jazz leave the room with Alice
following him quickly.
Ok then and by the way Bella, for the first few weeks your
tattoo will burn, because of the venom. I nodded at him.
YOU GOT A TATOO?! Bella you know how I feel about
those things. Edward sighed as he pinched the bridge of
his nose. I pulled up the sleeve of my red turtle neck;
Edward ran his thumb over my tattoo. He looked up at me
with pure love shining in his eyes.I thought you could get one matching. I said slowly, hoping
it wouldnt offend him.
Of course I will Bella. He whispered and placed a kiss on
my wrist, then mouth.
Ok then... Ive got places to be so can we do this? James
asked shifting his feet restlessly. James walked over to us,his eyes closed in concentration; he stood in front of
Edward. Then Edward started to scream loudly; his head
rolled onto the back of the sofa, as if hed got bored and
drifted off. James moved to stand in front of me, his eyes
snapped open as if he felt my fear, and shot me a reassuring
smile. He closed his eyes and the look of concentrationreturned, I felt all my venom flee from my body, so fast it
burned. The pain became too much, I stopped fighting it and
gave in.
I opened my eyes to see Esme and Carlisle leaning over me
in worry. I lifted head slowly, and blinked at the scene;
James was sat on the couch watching the football game; and

the man next to me smiled lopsidedly. I gasped.
Edward? His bright green eyes shone in amusement.
The one and only. He smiled at me again; I raised my hand
to touch his face. His light pink skin was warm, he closed his
eyes and leant into my hand; his auburn hair shone in the
light that was coming from the glass wall.
Youre beautiful, I whispered, as I revealed in the feel of
his warm, soft skin.
So are you. His hand ran delicately across my face, andpicked up one of my dark brown locks; his hand then rested
on my neck, feeling my pulse.
Ive missed that. He smiled, making me blush. And that.
He chuckled.
Right we have something to do, Mrs Cullen. He laughed,
raising his eyebrows suggestively. I laughed and got up fromthe sofa, and stood to look at him.
Youre... breathtaking. I sighed. The door swung open
revealing Emmett and Rose, who looked like shed been
dragged through a hedge backwards.
Youre both human? Emmett said; standing in the doorway
stunned.Well done Em, Edward said sarcastically, as he dragged me
upstairs.
EMPOV
I opened the door to see two humans staring at each other
lovingly in our living room. All the people in the living room

spun around at our arrival, revealing that the two humans
were Edward and Bella.
Youre both human? I question at them.
Well done Em. Edward said sarcastically, as he rushed
upstairs with Bella.
Why are they human? I questioned to my family as I sat
down next to new vampire. And who the hell is this? I
asked jerking my thumb at the new guy.
Im James, He said, not looking away from the footballgame on TV. That still doesnt explain why Bells and Eddie
are human? I said looking at everyone in the room.
I have the power to make vampires human, so they can have
children. It usually always works the first time. James
said, as he pumped his arm, as the team he supported
scored. Rose gasped and looked at me expectantly.Em? She asked a hopeful smile on her face.
Are you sure, baby? I asked, and smiled widely as she
nodded madly.
Are you asking me to turn you two into humans? I looked
at James and nodded. He sighed and led Rose over to the
couch; he stood in front of her and closed his eyes inconcentration, Rose started screaming loudly. I gripped her
hand tightly as she writhed in pain on the couch before she
fainted. James moved to hover over me; I screamed loudly
in pain as I welcomed the blackness.

Emmett screamed from downstairs, and it became tangled
with Bellas screams of pleasure that floated down from
upstairs. I sat on our bed playing my new white guitar; I
continued singing even when Alice came and sat beside me. I
started to sing Use Somebody by Kings of Leon. Bella
adored the song. Alice hated it ironically. Alice climbed intomy lap, as I drifted toward the end, and started to kiss my
neck.
Im going hunting, I said stiffly, and swept out of the
room in a fluid moment. I ran past Emmett and Rose who
were mostly staring at each other intently. I jumped over
the bubbling river that separated our garden from the
forest. I heard the quick movements of Alice behind me,
wanting to be alone I pushed my legs faster; I knew Id have
to face her wrath later, but later rather than sooner for
me at the moment. Alice dodged her way in front of me,
making me come to a sudden stop.
What the hell was that? She spat at me, her small eyes
glowering at me evilly.
I needed to hunt. I stated simply, staring back at her.
I got that part. I meanwhy did you run? She spat, but her
eyes showed her true sadness; and I realised I wasnt at all
affected. I didnt want to make her smile again.

I need space. I chuckled realizing I was quoting Bella.
I can give you space! She insisted, I pointed to the house
that was only just in sight.
Go home then. I said in a stern voice. She nodded slowly; a
way a child would after being caught with their hand in the
cookie jar. She ran off with a slight sob, her departure
made me feel like I could breathe again. I heard the faint
heart beat of a bear; I followed the sound and saw the bear
clawing at a tree. I pounced onto its back, and felt itstruggle as I sunk my teeth through its fur. His ferocious
roar turned into pathetic mewls, as its blood flooded into
my mouth. I sighed happily in relief as I felt the warm liquid
trickle down my throat.
BPOVI lay panting, on Edwards toned chest.
Wow! He mumbled sleepily. I nodded against his chest,
causing him to chuckle throatily.
Can you even talk?He asked smugly.
Yes! I protested with a croak.
Good, he chuckled; and shifted me so my head restedagainst his shoulder. He gently pressed a kiss into my hair.
Night Bella. He yawned before falling asleep instantly.
Night Edward. I whispered into the darkness.
RPOV
I was woken up by Emmett who was currently kissing my

neck. I sighed happily and pulled him up to my lips by his
curly hair.
Good morning, he whispered, onto my lips.
Yes it is. I groaned as his tongue touched my bottom lip. I
shoved his head off of me, making him pout.
I want to go and buy a pregnancy test. I said, as I walked
into the bathroom in his shirt.
Will it work straight away? Emmett asked.
I have no clue! I shouted back as I stepped into theshower.
BPOV
I padded downstairs in my gray sweatpants, and one of
Edwards sweatshirts.
Morning sweetie, Esme smiled at me, as I started to make
myself some coffee.
Morning, I grumbled, and rubbed the sleep from my eyes.
Can I have some toast please? I asked, making Esme
freeze in shock.
S-sure, she stuttered out. She placed the bread in the
toaster, at the smell of the warming bread; Edward, Rose
and Emmett all came thundering down stairs.
Is that breakfast? Rose asked, her face showing her
disgust.
Yeah but I can make something else. I smiled at them all.
Yes! We get to eat! Emmett shouted in excitement, his

fist pumping the air in excitement.
Yeah, but you have to watch your weight, shave, get hairs
cuts, work out. All that before you change back. I said and
waved at James, who was still on the couch.
Well thats ok, I dont mind working out! Emmett said, as
he kissed his biceps making us all laugh. I grabbed the toast
from the toaster and started buttering it; the others
grimaced as I bit into it.
Bella? Edward asked, as he wrapped his arms around me.Yes? I asked, feeling awkward in his arms.
Whats good for breakfast? I looked up at him
questioningly, and then realised theyd been vampires for so
long; that they didnt know anything about food.
How about eggs? I asked, and giggled when they all
shrugged. As I started adding the milk to the eggs; Jazzwalked into the kitchen, with Alice following behind, in a
pair of sweat pants and I felt my heart swell with love. I
blushed, as he raised his eyebrows at me, and looked down
at the egg mixture.
Hey Bella, I was thinking that we could make a trip to that
hotel a monthly thing; what do you think? I stood looking athim in shock; and I felt myself nod.
Yeah, that sounds good. I smiled; and slid the eggs onto
the four plates Id set out. Edward, Rose and Emmett
picked up their forks hesitantly and studied the eggs.
Are you sure this is edible Bella? Emmett asked, as the
egg wobbled on his fork. I laughed and nodded at him. Jazz

groaned as Edward wrapped his arms around my waist.
Im going for a walk. He snapped and walked towards the
door, with Alice following him.
Alone. He spat at her; Alice nodded and then began to sob
uncontrollably. Edward frowned, removed his arms from my
waist and pulled her into a hug.
Ill go talk to him; I said and walked out into the garden.
Jazz, what the hell is up with you? I spat at him
venomously. He shrugged, playing the innocent guy; not theguy who just made Alice cry.
I dont know what youre talking about, Bells he smiled,
making my heart flutter a little. At the sound his eyebrows
rose, and he smirked at me.
What the hell is wrong with you? You just made the woman
you love cry! I shouted at him.No, I didnt. I made a woman, who I once loved, cry. He
said, and came closer to me. The woman I love is standing
opposite me. He stated and walked off into the woods. I
sighed and walked back into the house, where Edward was
still holding a sobbing Alice.
Hey Al, Itll be ok. Hell come around. I said rubbing herback; but buried deep into my soul was the feeling that he
wouldnt come around for her. That hed leave her, and
sweep me off my feet, and take me away to a romantic
island. Just me and him.

I walked from the woods; a stomach full of blood sloshing
around inside of me. Standing at the back door, was Edward.
His tall form; filling the wooden door frame, with a
thunderous expression.
What? I spat at him, not caring that my hate for him was
probably drowning him.
You cant just break her heart, and then walk off. He spatback.
You did it to Bella. I said smugly, as I felt his hurt roll off
him, as he flinched.
That was different! He said, a desperate edge starting to
appear in his voice.
Why was it? You broke Bellas heart and then walked away.Is it different because I PLANNED on coming back? I shot
at him, not wanting to hear his stupid reply; I barged past
him and walked into the living room. Alice was snuggled into
the white sofa watching television, with a dark blanket
covering her. James was sat in a large black arm chair, his
red eyes focused on a thick book. I walked up stairs,completely ignoring Alice, and heard Rose and Emmett going
at it upstairs; and the soft whimpers of Bella. I walked to
my bedroom door, and then heard Bellas whimpers turn into
screams. I rushed upstairs and flew into her room, and
pulled her into my arms. Edward flew in a couple of minutes
later; I forced waves of calm onto her shaking body.

Sshh Bella; its okay. Im here. I cooed into her ear quietly.
She stopped shaking and woke up abruptly.
What was wrong, Bella? Edward asked her, making me
growl at him inaudibly in jealousy.
You left me again. She whispered, upon hearing it Edwards
eyes filled with sadness.
Im not going anywhere Bella. I LOVE YOU. Im not leaving
again. He said, and pulled her from me so he could embrace
her tightly. I understood the message, shesmine! I walkedout the door when I heard very faint, thanks Jazz.
RPOV
Itd been three days! The longest three days of my life. The
tests were meant to have shown if I was pregnant by now.
All twelve tests had said negative. After Bella had
forgotten her nightmare; shed made an appointment at a
sexual health clinic for me and Emmett. We walked hand in
hand into the sterile building.
Names, please? The receptionist, Jessica, asked.
Emmett and Rosalie Cullen. Emmett smiled at her. She
fluttered her eyelashes at him, making me wrap my arms
around his toned, warm chest possessively.
DR Mallory will be out in a minute. She smiled coyly at him,
and then blushed when she realised I was glaring at her. I
dragged Emmett away from the slut, and over to the large
couch.
Are you possessive, babe? Emmett smirked down at me.

pointed out the attached room.
What? He asked staring at her blankly.
Go and wank into the tub, honey. I stated simply.
Can do, doc. He departed with a wink.
Ok, so no you. Sadly women have to be more complicated.
She sighed, and passed me a medical gown.
Ill you a minute to change, once youre finished lie on the
bed for me please, Rosalie. She smiled at me, and then
closed the door with a loud click.
EMPOV
I walked back into the room; and saw Rosalie sat on the bed
with big fat tears rolling down her face.
Hey, I cooed at her. Whats wrong? I asked, whilerubbing her back.
It just hurt so much! She wailed into my shoulder. I was
about to speak again, when I heard her whisper very faintly.
It reminded me of THAT night. (Night she was raped.) I
stiffened and wrapped my arms around her tightly.
Well then, just think about the child you could be carryingsoon. I soothed, and started rocking her gently.
BPOV
I woke up and looked at the digital clock that rested on my
nightstand. 10 am it read in big red block numbers; I
shifted and saw that Edward was snoring gently next to me.

I removed his arms from my waist, and threw on a shirt and
a pair of jeans. I swung open the bedroom door, and saw
that Jazz was stood outside my bedroom.
Hey, I said softly, and closed the door slowly.
Hey, you ok? He asked, scanning me quickly.
Yeah, are you? He nodded, and shifted uncomfortably.
Where are you going? He asked again.
To go and buy a pregnancy test. I whispered; Jazz
stiffened making me feel awful.Right, he said before stalking off into his room, and
slamming the door loudly; causing me to sigh. I made my way
to Edwards car, when Alice appeared in front of me.
Can I come!? She bounced happily.
Id like some time to think, alone. Is that ok, Al? Her
vibrant smile dropped, and she nodded slowly.Ok, tell me as soon as you know then. She smiled slightly
and let me get in the car. I buckled in and drove off quickly.
I pulled into the stores car park, picked up my phone and
purse. I opened the stores door and slipped in quietly,
recognising Jessica, and hoped she hadnt seen me. I picked
up a Clear Blue pregnancy test and a small loaf of bread.Bella! Jessicas scream startled me.
Jessica! I smiled at her, pretending to be shocked at
seeing her.
What are you buying? She asked looking down at the
pregnancy test in my left hand.
A loaf of bread. I smiled.

No! The other thing! She huffed.
You mean this pregnancy test? I asked looking down at the
box, and then smiled at her widely.
I think Im pregnant. I shrugged, but I felt a smile start
to appear.
Wow! Well tell me when you know the details; send my best
to Edward. I nodded and waved at her as she left. I threw
$15 onto the counter and walked out without getting my
change. Not wanting to face Alice, Edward and especiallyJazz; I headed down to the Quileute Reservation. I parked
by the cliff, me and Jake jumped off a life time ago. A grey
wolf appeared from the shadowed forest growling at me. I
held my hands up in a non threatening gesture.
Its me, Bella. I said, willing it was a werewolf and not a
real one. The wolf backed back into the forest, a loudscream and shredding sound echoed from deep inside; and
then Sam strolled calmly back out.
What did you do to Jake? He growled at me, his eyes
dark.
I didnt do anything. He did! I spat at him.
Well sorry, I dont know what he did; because hesdisappeared. He snapped back at me.
He fucking killed Renesmee! Ok, are you fucking happy
now? He killed my daughter! I sobbed and fell to the
ground. Sam looked down at me; his eyes soft.
Bella, Im so sorry. I didnt know. I stood, wiped my tears
and headed towards my car.
-
8/4/2019 A Little bit of Romance and A LOT of Complication
53/113
Bella, I am sorry. Why are you human though? He called
after me and ran to catch up.
I think I might be pregnant. I stated flatly, Sam stopped
beside me.
Er... congrats I guess! He said while dragging his hand
through his thick black hair.
Yeah, well gotta take the test yet. I said, as I climbed
into my truck. Sam stood awkwardly, and then waved slightly
as I drove off.Twenty minutes later and I was pulling into our long drive.
As soon as Id parked I was practically dragged out of the
car and into the cold arms of Alice; and was then pulled into
the warm arms of Edward.
Bella, where did you go? I saw you driving and then you
just, vanished. Alice asked accusingly.I was with Sam Uley, down at the Quileute Reservation. I
said staring straight at her; and ignored Edward stiffening
around me.
Oh, Alice said simply. I untangled myself from Edward,
and walked into the house with the shopping bag in hand.
Everyone, excluding Jazz, made their way into the livingroom and looked at me expectantly. I sighed and walked
into the bathroom down the hall; the Cullens trailed after
me, grinning at me when I spun around.
Guys! Can I please pee on a stick in privacy? I growled at
them, all the Cullens dispersed individually until it was only
Edward in front of me.

8/4/2019 A Little bit of Romance and A LOT of Complication
54/113
Can I come in with you? Edward blushed.
WHAT!? No! I screeched at him, and then blushed bright
red.
Sorry, he mumbled and sat on the floor outside the
bathroom. I crouched down in front of him, and kissed his
cheek.
I just need a bit of space and privacy, Edward. I heard
Jazz chuckle loudly from upstairs, making me smile. I
walked into the bathroom and locked the door, even thoughhalf the people in the house could break it down if they
wanted to. I took a deep breath, and took the test thatd
change the rest of my life. I sat, holding the Clear Blue
stick in my hand. Three minutes later and the word
POSITIVE popped up along with 4 DAYS, I stared down at
the stick in shock. I opened the door to the bathroomnumbly; Edward shot up at the sight of me.
Well? He asked excitedly.
Its positive; Ive been pregnant for four days. I smiled
weakly; my legs feeling like jelly. Edward kissed me tenderly
that then became a hard, passionate kiss. He pulled away
after a minute and then gently kissed my stomach.Youre pregnant! Alice, Rose and Esme pulled me into a
tight hug; and smiled down at me.
Youll need to get, and go to, a doctor Bella. Carlisle
smiled at me gently.
Why dont you be her doctor, dad? Edward said; before
Id even opened my mouth. I stared wide eyed and open

mouthed at Edward.
Er... Edward can we talk about this? I whispered to him.
What is there to talk about? Hell deliver your baby. He
smiled down at me.
Carlisle, know I love you so much; but you are NOT
delivering my kid. I dont want my father-in-law down there;
and YOU shouldnt want your father down there. I said
pointing at Edward; and then walking towards the phone.
RPOV
Bella walked over to the landline, calling a doctor when my
mobile rang. I sucked in a large breath as the word Doctors
flashed onto the screen.
Hello?
Hello? Mrs Rosalie Cullen; its Dr Mallory. We have theresults from your visit. I waved Emmett over to me; he
came immediately and pressed his ear near to my phone.
Im sorry to say that youre womb is to hostile to hold a
child. I felt tears run down my cheek at her words; and
Emmett pulled me into his strong arms. I could hear his
heart beating slowly; and I knew him, me and Edward wouldhave to change back soon.
Ok, well thank you very much. I managed to croak out; I
hung up before she could start talking again.
Hey! We can always adopt. I nodded against his chest, but
knew he was as heartbroken as me.
You, me and Edward need to change back. I sobbed out;
-
8/4/2019 A Little bit of Romance and A LOT of Complication

knowing Id miss his warm skin. He nodded and called
Edward and Carlisle over.
EMPOV
Carlisle, we need to change back. I can feel my heart
slowing. I said as James walked in from outside, holding a
blood bag.
You guys need to change back. He stated, and flopped onto
the couch.Were sorting that out now, actually. I spat at him, hoping
hed leave soon.
Emmett! Carlisle scolded. Ill bite you all then. He said
and made his way to his study; where he kept hospital beds
in a cupboard from our previous changes.
Ill just go and say goodbye to Bella. Edward said andwalked over to her.
Youre not dying Edward! I called after him, making him
spin around and raise an eyebrow at me, realising my
mistake I began to laugh hysterically. I walked upstairs with
Rose close behind me. I let Carlisle slide the morphine
needle into my arm and then bite my wrists and neck. Theworld fuzzed before turning black, and then bright red as
the venom started working. I screamed and thrashed on the
table in pain.
EPOV
My favourite brother was thrashing on one of Carlisles

hospital beds in pain. Rose was stood next to him holding his
hand and crying harder than before. Carlisle gently pushed
Rose onto a bed next to Emmett. He bit her, and then
looked at his daughter who was whimpering in pain. He
looked up at me next, and gestured to the next bed. I
climbed onto it and nodded at Carlisle.
Ready? He smiled sadly.
As Ill ever be, I said flatly, lay back and let him pour
venom into my body.
BPOV
Itd been another stressful week; Alice and Jazz screaming
at each other. Carlisle who was using all sorts of medication
for Edward, Rose and Emmett. James leaving. Esme thoughhad been the most supportive; shed hold me and my child
when Id wake up screaming from my nightmares. Id made
an appointment at the doctors on today, the day Edward
was supposed to wake up. Me, Jazz and Alice were all sat in
the lounge; waiting for the others to come down. I heard
the faint buzz of Carlisle and Esme talking upstairs andthen some growling. I blinked and the next thing I see is
Edward, Rose and Emmett crouched in front of me; teeth
bared and red eyes glowing brightly.
Bloody hell. I whimpered as the approached me slowly.
Jazz stood up instantly, and stood in front of me;
protecting me from them. Edward growled at him
-

58/113
menacingly.
Edward, remember me. Your wife, your kids mother. I
smiled hopefully, recognition flickered across his face and
he sprinted out the room. I sighed in relief, and got up
slowly. Jazz walked me to the Volvo, keeping his eyes firmly
on Rose and Emmett. He opened the door to the passenger
side and waited as I climbed into the car; his eyes
constantly shifting. He appeared in the drivers seat a
second later, and pulled out of the long drive rapidly.Hospital? He growled, his eyes still shifting. I nodded at
him, and pulled out my mobile. He picked up on the third
ring.
Hey daddy, I said, trying to sound cheerful.
Oh, hi Bells! Are you ok?
Im pregnant! I squealed down the phone, making Jazz tutquietly.
Wow! Thats great Bells! When did you find out? I think
heard him say good job Edward, but couldnt be sure.
About twenty minutes ago! So me and Jazz will come and
see you after Ive been to the hospital.
Great wha- JASPER! I heard him screech. I pushed myhair off my face, and sighed deeply.
Yeah, Edwards hunting down some food. I smiled as Jazz
let out a hearty laugh.
He couldnt drop it long enough to go to the hospital with
you? I heard my dad tut. Jazz pulled into the hospitals car
park; and placed his head on the steering wheel as I
-

59/113
continued my conversation.
No, dad I gotta go. Love you, see you later. I blew him a
kiss through the phone and hung up.
I was sat in the doctors office, waiting for her to arrive.
Jazz was sat in the chair near to the bed I was laying on.
He smiled up at me as the doctor walked in.
Hello, Im Doctor Wilson.
Im Bella, and this isJasper. I smiled at her.Ok then; Bella get on the scales for me please, and then Ill
measure your height. She smiled at me, and then Jazz. I
stepped onto the large scales, and watched the hand whizz
round; and stopped at ten stone and 3 and a half lbs.
Thats perfect Bella! Thats a great weight to start at. You
should add about 300 calories to your day for the baby. DrWilson smiled at me. She led me over to a different set of
scales, and started fiddling behind me.
Youre 54, thats fine as well Bella. Would you like the
blood test first? Or the scan? She smiled. Jazz stiffened
at the words blood test.
Would your husband like to leave the room while I do theblood test?
Im not... Hes not... Were not married. I stuttered out.
Oh sorry. Your boyfriend then? Her eyes flickered down
to my ring finger.
Hes not my boyfriend either. I looked Jazz straight in
the eye, thought about lots of decisions so Alice couldnt
-

60/113
see us, over the doctors shoulder.
Hes a very close friend of mine; and the more I spend time
with him, the more I fall in love with him. Jazz looked
straight back at me, and then began to smile.
Aww! She cooed, smiling at us both.
Im married and pregnant with his brothers child. I smiled
sadly.
Oh! I nodded at her shocked face.
And Im married to her sister-in-law.So not very complicated then. She smiled, and then
started laughing at her own joke.
Ill have the blood test first please; get it over with. You
can leave, go and get a drink and then come back in a bit if
you want Jazz. I smiled; he nodded his thanks and then
left hastily. I sat further back on the bed and closed myeyes as she started prepping the needles. I peeked open my
eyes and saw her putting three empty vials on a tray near
me; at the sight of the long needle I whimpered quietly.
This will only take about 3 minutes, Bella. I nodded, my
eyes still closed; and whimpered again when the needle
pierced my skin. As she said, about three minutes later shewithdrew the needle; wrapped the tiny wound with cotton
wool and medical tape.
The door swung open revealing Jazz, with his eyes glowing
neon gold. I smiled at him; and then gasped as Dr Wilson
put cold blue gel on my flat stomach. She laughed lightly;
and Jazz came to sit by my side and grabbed my hand. She
-

scanned my stomach, and then frowned at the screen. My
heart sped up.
Is something wrong? I and Jazz asked simultaneously. She
shook her head, and clicked on the keyboard.
Im seeing three. She said, still frowning.
Please say feet and not children. I said almost screaming
at her.
Do you not want three children? She asked, finally looking
away from the screen.I dont know. Maybe.
You could always put two up for adoption. She offered
kindly.
NO! I roared at her. She held her hands up in mock
surrender.
Sorry. I said sheepishly.Yeah, definitely three. Youre a mother of triplets Bella!
She said cheerfully.
Ok Bella, I suggest you dont drink any alcohol now, youll
need to bump you calorie intake by 900 calories. 300 for
each child. Drink lots; water would be the best. Dont smoke,
or be around anyone who smokes; as itll harm them. Wereall finished after that; we need to make an appointment
every two weeks for the first trimester. She smiled; I
nodded trying to remember everything shed said. Jazz
squeezed my hand, a reassuring gesture that hed help. I
wiped off the gel with paper towels shed handed to me; and
left me to get dressed behind a horrible curtain. Jazz
-

smiled at me and led me to the reception area.
Okay Bella. When would you like your nest appointment?
Dr Wilson smiled at me; looking in her diary.
You said youd meet Charlie that Thursday, apart from that
youre free. Jazz whispered into my ear.
Thanks. Tuesday, at four? I asked, she looked down at her
black book, nodded and wrote it down.
Bye. She called; and walked back into the room wed just
been in.To Charlies? Jazz asked once we were both in the car; all
I could do was nod. I was still thinking about the three
children Id have in nine months.
JPOV
I drove slowly, my eyes going from the road to Bella. Bellawhod admitted shed loved me, about an hour ago. I smiled
at the thought of Bella glowing, again, through the stages of
pregnancy. It was wiped from my mind when I imagined the
kids with HIS hair. I pulled into Charlies drive, and waited
for Bella to come round from her daydream. Her eyes began
to focus on the house in front of us; she looked at me andthen jumped; obviously forgetting Id accompanied her.
Come on, I said gently and I appeared at her door, took
her hand and dragged her to the front door. I knocked on it
when Bella sucked in a big breath, and nodded.
Hey Bells! Jazz. He nodded at me; his enthusiasm
disappearing as he said my name. He took her arm and
-

stared down at her soft, warm skin curiously.
So how was it? He asked, still walki
