September 15, 2005 Diary, Everything seemed to be going so great when Edward finally met his love Bella. However, a vampire dating a human has its consequences, and our family has faced some of the worst. My Edward is miserable, first the encounter with James, and then the birthday party. Here, let me tell you everything from where I left off last time. A few days after my last entry, Bella and Edward came home from Phoenix. She had a walking cast on her leg. Her and Edward hadn't been able to see each other very often, but Alice was able to go over to the house to see her whenever. Charlie loves Alice. After some time had passed, Edward called Charlie and asked him to sit down with him to talk. Charlie kindly agreed, and Edward went over to ask his permission to take Bella to the Prom that was coming up. Alice had seen that they would need to surprise Bella with this because she was not going to go willingly. Edward and Alice formed a plan. The night before the Prom, Alice invited Bella to spend the night, informing her and Charlie that Edward was out of town for the night with Emmett and Carlisle. Of course they were hunting but Alice did not tell Charlie that. Charlie had called me to confirm, he is a really good father. Edward had a bed put into his room just for the night, so that Bella would have something to sleep on. She was amazed by that, she is so modest. Alice had some how managed to convince Bella the next day to let her give her a makeover. Alice did her hair, her makeup and even gave her this light beautiful blue dress (Edwards favorite color on Bella) with matching heals. Bella was not to happy about the heals, but we all know how Alice is. Shortly before Alice was finished with Bella, the boys arrived home. Edward was already dressed in his suit. He patiently and politely waited at the bottom of the stairs as Alice announced that she was finished. She had to practically drag Bella out of the bathroom, as she had figured that something was going on. When they got to the top of the stairs and Bella looked down and saw Edward in his suit, her cheeks turned a deep scarlet red. Alice carefully lead Bella down the stairs, practically carrying her so she would not trip. Once they got to the bottom, Alice handed Bella off to Edward and he lifted her in his arms and kissed her. She was shocked and seemed to be speechless. Edward guided her out to his car and they took off. Edward later informed me that Bella had thought that he was going to change her, which he kind of laughed at. She was not to excited to find out that they were going to the Prom. But she did eventually have fun. Edward was not to happy to see Bella's friend Jacob Black there, seeing as he did not even go to school with them. Edward was polite however and allowed Jacob a dance when he asked. After the prom had ended Edward was a gentleman as always. He drove Bella home and walked her to the door step. He kissed her goodnight and returned home to tell me all about his Prom. He smiles so big when he talks about Bella and when they are together he lights up. It makes me SO happy to see my first son so happy. That is why is saddens me to continue telling you everything that has happened. Everything went fine for the next few months. Edward and Bella spent as much time together as they could. However the tables turned a few days ago on the 13th. It was Bella's birthday and Alice had decided she was throwing her a party. No surprises there. While the kids were at school I set everything up as Alice had instructed. She can get kind of bossy when it comes to her parties. We had a beautiful cake made just for Bella, there were streamers, candles and flowers everywhere. There was a punch bowel filled with bright red punch, some kind of joke I guess, and the presents from all of us were stacked on the table next to the cake. Alice had brought her present, a dress, with her to school to show Bella and help break the ice about the party. Bella was not to happy about it, seeing as she had asked for us to not give her presents and especially not a party. But we all know there is no denying Alice once she has her mind set on something. Bella quickly gave in and agreed. Bella drove her self to the house after school while Edward followed behind her, when they arrived he ran her around to the backyard and they came in the house through his window, to avoid her seeing the decorations before we were ready for her. Everyone got dressed in their best quickly and returned back downstairs. Emmett even sneaked out to Bella's truck to install her present from him and Rosalie. They got her a new stereo system for her truck. Once Bella was dressed in her new dress from Alice she came out and slowly made her way down the stairs. Edward went to meet her half way, but Alice had beat him to it. She wanted to show off her dress pick, and to feel Bella's excitement when she saw everything. Once they reached the bottom, Edward took Bella's hand, and Alice quickly snapped a photo with Bella's camera. Bella looked around and took everything in. When she saw the cake she looked confused, she asked why there was suck a big cake when none of us will eat it, only her. We all laughed and I just told her that Alice is unstoppable and we don't do anything small in this family. Soon it was time for presents. First she opened the empty stereo box from Rosalie and Emmett, she was confused until they told her that they had already installed it, she thanked them and moved on to the next present. Carlisle and I had gotten her two open tickets to Jacksonville to go see her mother. One for her and one for Edward to go with her if she wants him to, which we are sure she will. Her final present was another from Alice and Jasper, as she was opening it she cut her finger on the paper and that is where everything went wrong. The scent of her blood wafted towards us, and Jasper snapped. He is new at this vegetarian thing, and the smell was to much for him. In a split second he leaped towards her, but Edward stopped him and simultaneously threw him forward, while pushing Bella backward. However, with everything that was going on, he was a little to strong with Bella and threw her into a wall of photo frames and a table of dishes. Something had gotten her and sliced her arm open, which sent most of us into a frenzy. Everyone but Carlisle rushed to get out, while Emmett and Edward dragged Jasper out. Carlisle cleaned Bella up and wrapped her arm. Once all the blood was cleaned up and the rags were burned, everyone but Alice and Jasper returned. Rose, Emmett and I went to work cleaning up the rest of the living room, while Edward apologized profusely to Bella and they came up with a story for Charlie. Edward quickly drove Bella home in her truck and ran back home to talk to us. That incident was to much for him, he has decided that we need to leave, to keep her safe. My poor Edward is entirely heart broken, but he strongly believes this is what needs to be done, for her sake, that it is the only way to keep her safe. Edward has been avoiding seeing Bella since the party, and he has decided that we will all be leaving Forks tomorrow. After school he is going to meet Bella at her house and tell her that we are leaving, and that she can not come with. No matter how much we have all tried to convince him, he has it set in his mind that this is what is right, that this is what he needs to do, for her. He is very strong, I could never do what he is about to do. It is very sad for all of us, Forks has been our home for so long, and we all have grown so fond of Bella. And even more fond of seeing Edward with a smile, truly happy, in love. Carlisle has already let the hospital know that he is leaving, and I have gone to the school and withdrew all five kids. For now we will be going back to Alaska with our cousins the Denali family. We have made arrangements with them, and the moving trucks will be ready tonight. I can't believe this is actually happening. I really do not want to leave my home. I have never felt more at home that I have here in Forks... Well, I guess I have stalled long enough, I should finish up packing, that includes you. I will update you again once we get settled in in Alaska. I really hope things can work out some how. Always, Esme
