Almost Impossible Chapter 34

Epilogue

It was freaky to say the least, which is actually funny considering everything I have been through. My dreams have always been vivid. It's what made the nightmares so horrible, but this? It shouldn't have been a surprise really, but it was ridiculous. I knew Jake thought I was crazy. The entire thing was odd, but I think everyone has experienced something like that at one point in their lives. Dreams you think are real, then when you are finally convinced that's what they are, you find out there not…

Maybe I should explain.

The whole thing made no sense, but at the same time it did. It was all pretty unreal, but that was just how my life went after moving to this rainy little town.

Almost Impossible Chapter 33

Chapter 33

The past few weeks have been kind of a blur. It was quiet, calm and relaxing, but I didn't remember much of it. I was starting to think that having everything be over and back to normal was having a weird effect on me. Since I moved to Forks, I had never been able to just sit back and not have to worry about something, or someone. It felt… unnatural.

I had just got home from Emily's where we had a nice little dinner with the pack and family members. It was a bright day, something Forks seemed to have more of recently, and it was a very happy time. Most of the family members didn't know what had been going on, but with was clearly visible to them that something had happened and it was over. We were all able to relax, it was nice.

Almost Impossible Chapter 32

Chapter 32

After Jake had left, I was a little hesitant to go downstairs. I wanted to wait until after Charlie had left, but I had a feeling that he was waiting for me. I was also curious as to why he was home anyways. I decided to suck it up and see what was going on.

When I got downstairs, it was really quiet. I rounded the corner into the kitchen and came to a stop when Charlie was leaning against the corner deep in thought. I took a deep breath and let it out loudly to let him know I was there. I walked to the refrigerator to get some juice.

Almost Impossible Chapter 31

Chapter 31

When I awoke the next morning, I felt more rested than I had in a long time. I even had a smile on my face, which was a shock even to me. A few moments before I opened my eyes, I suddenly knew I wasn't alone. I wasn't expecting anyone so I was a little afraid to open my eyes. I sniffed the air a little to see if I could catch a scent and my smile returned, wider than before, once I realized who it was.

"Good morning beautiful," Jake said as he moved to sit on the bed next to me, bent down, and kissed my lips softly.

Almost Impossible Chapter 30

Chapter 30

About an hour after Charlie and Billy had returned, everyone started slowly drifting home for some much-needed rest. They are all able to enjoy the fact that it was all over and they were finally going to be able to catch up on sleep. Everyone except for me.

I knew wouldn't be able to sleep, but that didn't stop me from trying. I had decided to head home with Charlie and he was happy to have me home for once. As soon as I got home, I went upstairs and took a very long and very hot shower. I decided to go downstairs and watch whatever sports game Charlie had on TV. He was surprised that I was down there, but happy. I could tell from the smile on his face.

Almost Impossible Chapter 29

Chapter 29

The fighting had gone on for not too much longer. When I was done with Aro, I wondered off in the forest thinking. After I was sure they didn't need me, I blocked the pack out so I could have my thoughts to myself. I was told that Alice had gone to get the pieces of Aro.

I sat on a huge rock next to a cliff for about forty-five minutes before I had gotten tired of my own thoughts. I didn't feel guilty for what I had done and that's what had me feeling sort of uncomfortable. I didn't really know how I should have felt. Overall it wasn't too bad. At least it wouldn't have been to the rest of the pack, but the Cullen's, they would be going home without one of their family. That part was what got to me most.

Almost Impossible Chapter 28

Chapter 28

The time I had with Jake was cut short as usual. We were just relaxing enough that we started to dose off when we heard yelling coming from outside. Since Jake was still in a lot of pain, I told him to stay where he was and that I would go check it out.

The yelling was louder the farther I had gotten outside and ended up running most of the way. I could tell who it was by the voice. Paul was lying on the ground behind Jake's house, Emily was standing over him trying to get him to lay still so she could wrap something on his knee.

Almost Impossible Chapter 27

Chapter 27

I knew I was about to die. I could feel it creeping up on me as the vampires grew closer. I closed my eyes tightly and braced myself for the impact, but what I heard instead, was not what I was expecting.

I must have blocked the pack out again, because I hadn't known they were that close to me. They stepped out in front of me just in time and were instantly busy with fighting off the guards. I tried to snap out of my frozen state and Sam's voice broke through and helped me.

Almost Impossible Chapter 26

Chapter 26

I didn't know what to do, or what to even think, especially since that I had gotten away from him. What would he do to Edward? What might he have done already? I couldn't bear to think about any of it. Things between him and me may have changed, but I still couldn't stand to think about anything or anyone hurting him. I did not want to imagine him not existing anymore. Before the thought had officially sunk in, I was on my feet and running. I had to get to Alice.

Where are you going? Jake asked.

Alice. She has to know something, anything will do. They took him to get to me, I'm not going to let them hurt him.

Almost Impossible Chapter 25

Chapter 25

I was standing out in the middle of the meadow. The sun was shining the brightest I've seen it since I was in Phoenix. The breeze blew my hair lightly across my face. I closed my eyes, enjoying the warmth of the sun on my skin; smiling. In one quick moment, it all disappeared. The warmth turned into a violent wind. As my body shivered in alarm, I heard a familiar voice calling out my name in panic. My knees hit the ground and eyes flew open as I gasped for a breath to respond.

Almost Impossible Chapter 24

Chapter 24

We stood there in silence for a little longer as we continued to think. I couldn't come up with anything except just making sure I was doing my blocking thing, though I'm not really sure how it worked against others. Maybe I don't even have to try. I may have to test that out with Edward before it's too late. I still couldn't believe that my brain had the ability to do such a thing.

I don't know how anything still surprised me.

After I was deep in thought, I could feel Sam and Jacob's eyes on me. It wasn't until Jake said my name that I snapped out of it and focused on them again.

"Bells?" Jake whispered.

Almost Impossible Chapter 23

Chapter 23

I controlled my breathing and thought positive thoughts.

It could be anything, really, I told myself, but nothing worked.

After what seemed like hours, I slowly got out of bed and walked to the window. Before I had even gotten a chance to see what it was a familiar voice yelled my name, causing me to squeal a little.

"Bella! Open the window," Jake yelled, quietly as he could.

Almost Impossible Chapter 22

Chapter 22

When I woke up, the sun was shining dimly into my room. I blinked my eyes a couple times before I glanced at the clock and was relieved that it was just barely noon. I rolled onto my back and stared at the ceiling, thinking about what I was going to do. My days seemed only to consist of being at Jake's house or running around with the pack. I was in need for a little change, though had no idea what there was to do anymore.

Almost Impossible Chapter 21

Chapter 21

After talking to Leah, I decided to go back to Jake's house. I was surprised to see him sitting on the front porch when I got there, half asleep.

"Jake," I said, walking up to sit next to him.

"Yeah? Oh hey," he said with a yawn. "I didn't know how long you would be, so I just thought I would sit here and wait for you. I was just about to go make sure you were still alive," he laughed.

"Yep. I'm just fine," I said with a smile.

"So you're ok now?"

Almost Impossible Chapter 20

Chapter 20

After such a long and emotional night, I had woken up feeling pretty well rested for once. It was a little comforting knowing there was still a little while before the Volturi would come. I wasn’t quite sure how I able to and I knew it wasn’t good, but I did it anyways. There was so little to really find comfort in lately. None of us were able to.

Jake and I were hardly able to really be alone and I missed the old days when we were so comfortable with each other. After everything has happened the main focus was pack stuff and when it’s not neither of us could stop thinking about pack related things.

Almost Impossible Chapter 19

Chapter 19

The phone call had gone better than I thought, at least on my part. Finding out it was in fact the Volturi who were coming was an entirely different thing. I was terrified, not just for myself, but for everyone. One stupid incident led to more stupid ones and that leads to possibly many deaths. It took me a while to calm myself down enough to go home.

Once I did finally get home, it was easy to stay calm while distracting myself. I cooked dinner like normal, but this time watching how much I made. Didn't want Charlie to start thinking again. It all felt pretty normal; I could tell Charlie was ready to ask me another question, but he never did and I was glad.

Almost Impossible Chapter 18


Chapter 18

Edwards POV

It was the last thing I could have ever imagined happening. It was the last thing I thought was possible. Here I had been worried about what I would turn her into; never in all my years would I have ever thought he would turn her into a monster too.

I guess the only real way to look at it is that, at least she is still somewhat human. She can grow old with him and have babies. Only now, they really would be puppies. She wouldn't have to fight the constant urge to kill an innocent person, she would be protecting them instead.

Almost Impossible Chapter 17

Chapter 17

I was officially slipping into a panic. I had no idea why I hadn't thought of it before. It's almost obvious and I couldn't even begin to think of anything worse than the Volturi. I didn't want to try, they were bad enough.

Jake was just standing there looking at me, his arms halfway around me, completely confused. I took in a few more breathes, wiped the tears out of my eyes so I could see better, and was finally calming down a little bit.

"Who?" Jake finally asked.

"The Volturi," I repeated, not expecting him to know who I was talking about.

Almost Impossible Chapter 16

Chapter 16

Right when we got to the house, and was just about to phase back, Quil popped in and he was upset about something. Suddenly after a moment of trying to figure it all out, I realized it had to do with me.

What's going on? Jake asked him.

Charlie is here Bella and he's mad.

I couldn't think clearly enough to move at the moment. The only thing that broke me from my thoughts was Jake's startling laughter.

What? I snapped at him.

Almost Impossible Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Once I had gotten to Jake's, he let me know there was a meeting and he was able to go this time.

"Are you really sure you are healed enough?" I asked him.

"Yep. Nothing even hurts anymore," he said with a smile and I couldn't help but smile back.

He pulled me into his arms and gave me a tight hug that a week ago would have crushed me completely, but now it just felt wonderful to have him that close. We sat down on the couch to wait for a while and my nerves went overboard again. Jake could tell and he knew what was wrong.

"Everything is ok Bells, really. It's just a normal meeting," he told me.

Almost Impossible Chapter 14

Chapter 14

I couldn't get away from Leah fast enough. I wasn't used to talking to her, much less her actually caring- if that's what you called that. I didn't know if she was going to try and become friends or bite my head off, but either way I just wanted out of there. I would have thought she might have enjoyed the fact that she wasn't the only girl werewolf, but I guess that all depended on who the other one was and she never did like me. Oh well.

I was happy that Jacob wasn't too far away from Leah's so it didn't take long for me to get there. I walked amazingly fast, and I didn't even fall once. I was proud of myself, but I guess I had the, uh, werewolf in me now to thank for that.

Almost Impossible Chapter 13

Chapter 13

After the meeting ended I was walking away with Jake when I realized that I had to go home with Leah and I let out a heavy sigh.

"What?" he asked.

"Why Leah's?"

"I don't really know," he answered. After thinking a little bit. "I'm sure Sam would have said you could stay at his house with Emily, she would have liked that, but he still gets scared letting her around the new members," he said, looking ahead.

Almost Impossible Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Jake and I sat up against a tree. I was leaning against him, still tired, but awake enough to pay attention. I didn't want to be the focus of the attention anymore, though I knew that was unavoidable. After a while people started to look away from me and I felt a little better. One look I couldn't forget though was Emily's. She didn't look at me quite as friendly like she had used to and it hurt a little. I'd thought, she of all people would have accepted this. At least better than most, but I guess I was wrong.

As everyone stopped talking and started focusing to the grouping up front, Old Quil, Quil's grandfather, started to talk.

Almost Impossible Chapter 11

Chapter 11

I didn't really know what to expect, didn't think so much of the pack would have been there, but I don't know why I thought otherwise. I wished Jake could phase so maybe he could have helped me, but he still wouldn't be able to for a while. I also didn't want to phase again to try harder to hear them. It hurt really bad and I hoped the second time wouldn't be so bad, but I didn't care to find out any time soon.

Sam had walked away and then returned in human form. The pack members separated and walked back into the trees. It was time to take things seriously again.

Almost Impossible Chapter 10

Chapter 10

So there I was, standing the middle of the road still angry, but more than that, I was terrified. There was no denying it now. I felt huge, hot, and... hairy. I was a wolf. I couldn't believe it only took a few seconds to get to this point, it was the longest seconds of my life. And it actually did feel like I had exploded. As if this wolf, that I was, had literally exploded out of my skin. It was... Wow.

Almost Impossible Chapter 9

Chapter 9

After I had finally left Jacob's house, once again taking longer than it should have, I was going over everything in my head while I drove. I was definitely looking forward to that nap and some Tylenol, but as I drove a little further I realized that wasn't going to happen any time soon- just my luck.

As I was turning around a corner, just leaving La Push, something shining up ahead caught my eye. I was too far away to tell what it was, but I knew and there was no doubting it. Edward. The day was just about to get even longer.

Almost Impossible Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Sam continued to stand there and stare at us. The rest of the guys must have left, because I didn't hear them outside anymore. After a few seconds of him apparently thinking, he decided he was ready to talk and walked over to stand in front of me.

"I'm actually surprised you've been able to stop yourself from phasing two times now, seems you've found a way to focus. But I don't want you pushing your luck, you might end up phasing at the wrong time and you could end up... I think you get my point." His voice drifted off.

Almost Impossible Chapter 7

Chapter 7

I have no idea how long I was passed out, but when I woke up I was still in Jacob's room, still on his bed. The only thing that had changed was that there were more people in the room. After I decided to open my eyes, I started recognizing them, and I gasped when I finally knew who they all were and why they might have been there.

Sam and some of the other pack members whose names I can't quite remember at the moment, were there in the room. Some standing, some sitting, but all staring at me. I decided to lie perfectly still and wait until someone started to speak. I just hoped they weren't expecting it to be me who started.

Almost Impossible Chapter 6

Chapter 6

After a while, when Jacob didn't say anything, I excused myself to the bathroom; the silence was getting to be way too much. But, while I was in there, I heard Jacob walk into the living. I stopped before opening the bathroom door and I could hear him talking to his dad about the conversation we had just had. I was mad. That was supposed to be personal and he's just going to blurt it out like that? Before I could really get too mad, I could tell something was wrong. It was their tones and it made me really nervous. They sounded almost scared.

Almost Impossible Chapter 5

Chapter 5


I think I got maybe another hour of sleep before I heard the phone ringing downstairs. I jumped up and ran down to answer it, actually reaching it in one ring. It was Billy.

"Hey Bella, I'm calling for Jacob. He uh, wanted to stay in bed," he said while laughing.

I wasn't so sure that was the case. I kind of wondered if maybe Jacob was afraid to call, maybe thinking I had changed my mind or something. Hah. Like I could!

"Oh, hey," I replied, still thinking.

Almost Impossible Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Once I got home and was in bed, I laid there for a while thinking before I had fallen asleep. I thought about everything that had happened, starting with the kiss. I thought about how Edward had went to get Jacob for me after what he heard us talking about, our engagement. I felt horrible again, but then I thought about the kiss itself and the warmth. I felt all those feelings all over again and I tried to define it, but I couldn't. I had no idea what it could mean-and maybe it meant nothing. Maybe it was just finally becoming clear to me; though it wasn't clear at all. Except for Jacob.

Almost Impossible Chapter 3

Chapter 3

It was about an hour later that we were woken up by sudden voices in the doorway. I opened one eye to peek towards the door, only to see my dad standing next to Billy. I knew Jacob was definitely awake, he caught the same image and laughed. I however didn't find this situation very funny, maybe more on the embarrassing side.

Almost Impossible Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Once I got home, I had to explain to my dad the story for the weekend that Alice and I came up with. The story was of shopping and exaggerating on how much I had hated it, which I knew if I really did go, I would have. He seemed to believe it, though I have a hard time explaining it. I hated lying and I wasn't very good at it. He seemed to understand that something was bugging me and he looked worried, but he didn't ask.

Almost Impossible Chapter 1

Chapter 1

When Jacob kissed me, it was the most amazing thing I had ever felt. So warm, so electric, so... alive. There was no other way to explain the way it felt. The way he touched me, the way he made me put my hands on him, I could not find one reason, at that moment, why I had been so firm on not wanting to kiss him. If I would have know then, when he first kissed me, what I knew now, I wouldn't have hit him; I would have let myself enjoy it. I felt guilty for thinking that. Guilty because the vampire I loved was out there getting ready to fight for me and I was kissing my best friend. Could I even think of him like that anymore?
