Hey everyone! I actually really like this chapter, I hope you like it too. I will no longer be able to update as much because of how busy I've gotten over the past months, but I will update at least a few times a week or just once… I'm really not sure right now, but I'm just not inspired to go on, I'm kind of having writer's block. I just hope this helps…

Summary: What if Bella didn't meet Edward in 2006 in Forks, but met him in 1917-a year before Edward got sick from the Spanish Influenza and got turned into a vampire-in Chicago… This is what happens when they meet almost a decade later-both 'vegetarian vampires'…
Bella's POV
I heard them step into the empty house, they saw us, wrapped in each others arms and looking at each other. Like we were hopelessly in love. That's when out of the corner of my eye I saw Esme and Carlisle, together, happy.
They really did love each other, I could see the joy in their eyes. They just need time to figure everything out and I'm more than glad to give them that chance. I smiled and looked up at Edward, who was smiling at Esme and Carlisle.
"Sorry, we've interrupted your time," Carlisle said, looking at Edward sincerely, "we'll leave you two, to resume your night." Carlisle and Esme smiled.
"It was no problem," Edward nodded, looking at Carlisle sincerely, "there is no need for an apology, Carlisle." Edward said, sternly.
"We do apologize children," Esme smiled, brightly, "for the interruption and the fight," Esme whispered, looking agonized, "we shall leave because it is the right thing to do." she said, seriously and sternly.
"Esme, there is no need for an apology," I stated, firmly, "there is no need for an apology from both of you." they nodded, a little more relaxed. With that, they left us alone once again. I relaxed into Edward's arms as he stiffened.
"Edward?" I asked, confused by his sudden reaction.
"Alice and Jasper are back," he said, sighing and shaking his head, "Alice had another vision."
Alice and Jasper rushed into the room and sat down across from us. Alice was concentrating, hard, while Jasper looked exhausted. I stood up and walked over to Jasper putting a hand on his shoulder and nodded.
"Jasper-," I started.
"I'm fine, Bella," he tried to reassuring, but I could tell in his eyes, that what he said wasn't true.
"But, Jasper, you look exhausted!" I whined.
"Bella," he smirked, "I'm fine," he said, sounding more sure, "I just need to be with Alice, is all." With that, I nodded, letting it go.
"Alice," I started, I remembered that she had a vision, "your vision… is it…"
"No, it's not that," Alice assured me, I sighed with relief, "Bella, do you talk to Mike a lot?" she asked, sounding slightly irritated.
"Well, I guess, that is only because he is my friend," I shrugged.
"Well, according to me, going out on a date alone with him, isn't exactly 'just friends' Bella," Alice smirked, grinning wildly.
"What do you mean?" I asked, irritated, but Jasper looked more interested now than tired and restless.
"That was my vision, you…Mike…date," she said in between laughs.
"There is no way, that I'm going on a date with Mike Newton!" I shrieked out, saying his name in a repulsive tone.
"There is no way," Edward said, darkly, "there is no way I would let that repulsive Mike Newton go on a date with Bella." he said, his face twisted in pain and his voice strained.
"Oh, Edward, we don't know how it will happen or if it will happen, the vision was ever so blurry!" Alice said, laughing against Jasper's chest while Jasper was grinning from ear to ear.
"Oh, you guys are absolutely horrid!" I screamed at them, running to Edward's open arms.
"It's not as horrible as it can be, Bella," Jasper said in his southern drawl.
"Oh, to you, but what if you had to go on a date with Jessica Stanley?" I retorted back at him.
Jasper and Alice's faces fell. I laughed at their expressions. "See, both of you guys don't enjoy that thought do you?" I asked, teasingly.
"I don't think any one of us would want to even be with Jessica for a day," Edward teased, kissing me lightly.
"You're right," I agreed, "she's not the most trustful person or the most reliable." I sneered.
"Oh, Bella," Alice laughed, "you do know she is just jealous of you, right?"
"Why would Jessica be jealous of me?" I asked, stupidly.
"Well, you have all the boys at your feet, you're way more prettier than her, well basically anyone is prettier than her since Jessica wears 10 pounds of makeup on her face," she giggled and continued her list, "you're smarter, nicer, reliable, trusting, and everything else she isn't," I would've blushed if I could, "how can you not see that?" Alice exclaimed.
"Alice!" Edward scolded.
"Sorry, I get a little frustrated sometimes," She explained, she would've been blushing furiously.
"So when is this going to happen." I asked carefully, trying not to irritate Edward more.
"I said this is not happening!" Edward screamed.
"Edward," I said calmly, carefully placing my hand over his, "there has to be some reason I said yes to him, or I'm going to say yes to him," Edward calmed down and nodded, "it's not like he can do anything to change the way I feel about him or you." I assured him.
"I think he's going to ask next Friday," Alice said, unsure.
"Today's Saturday," I breathed, "so I have 6 days?"
"Well, you should know your days," Jasper smirked.
I stood up and pushed him against the couch. He laughed and pushed me on to the ground. I stood up, with a playful scold on my face. Edward growled and spun me into him, his hands on my waist and my hands on his chest, he sat back down.
"Edward!" I whined.
"Bella!" He mocked me, grinning wildly.
There was a sudden knock on the door and we all froze. A human. A certain human. I cautiously got up from Edward's secure arms and headed for the door. I opened it and was stunned to see him.
A/N: Sorry again for the delay. BTW I'm betaing now, so if you want a beta… just ask me!
