Summary: Y/N has been friends with the Cullen’s since she moved to town, and has had less than platonic feelings for Edward for just as long. When Bella moves to town and Y/N finds out that she’s Edward’s blood singer, she worries she’s at risk of losing her best friend and the person she’s in love with. But after a trip to Alaska, Edward reassures her that will never happen.

As cliche as it sounded, I’d had a terrible feeling in my gut when I’d woken up this morning. I didn’t know why, but my instincts were screaming at me to pull the covers over my head and go back to sleep. But alas, I didn’t listen, figuring it was just Monday blues. So I’d gotten dressed, crammed a cereal bar down my throat and waited for my best friend to pick me up like he did every morning. When he arrived, my mood lifted a little, as it always did whenever I was around him, but the feeling still lingered.

‘What’s the matter, honey?’ Edward asked as I fastened my seatbelt after greeting Emmett and Rose who were sat in the back seats.

‘I don’t know.’ I admitted, knowing it would be pointless to lie to someone who could literally read my mind, ‘I’ve just had a really bad feeling of dread since I woke up this morning.’

‘Don’t worry, I’m sure it’s nothing.’ Edward said, giving me a comforting smile that made my heart skip a beat in my chest.

‘He’s right. This is Forks, what’s the worst that could happen?’ Rose teased, trying to lift the somber mood that had settled over the car.

‘You’re right.’ I agreed, a small but genuine smile settling over my face. It was probably nothing.

I was in French first period with Jasper, Alice and Edward when the news reached us. A new girl had started today, Isabella Swan, though according to Ed, she’d been correcting everyone so far and asking them to call her Bella. I’d shrugged, not really that interested, but I’d felt a little sympathy for the girl starting half way through junior year in a small town— she’d be the talk of the school for the rest of the week at least. I didn’t envy her for that, but seeing as she was apparently Chief Swan’s daughter, I assumed she knew what she was getting into when she agreed to move here.

After that, Edward had distracted me with questions about the book— A Tale of Two Cities—he’d suggested I read. The rest of the lesson was spent with us discussing the ins and outs, the best parts and the worst parts in French. The rest of the morning flew by, and none of us had a period with the new girl, so when it came to lunch a few of the Cullens were curious about the new girl, while I had maintained my uninterested stance. We all joined the lunch line, I grabbed myself a fruit salad and a bottle of water, still not very hungry and took my usual seat in between Emmett and Edward at our table.

‘So, what does the new girl think of the school’s freaks?’ Emmett asked, his dimple appearing in his cheek as he grinned, ‘well freaks and Y/N.’ He winked at me and chuckled when I rolled my eyes at him.

Edward looked over to Bella at Emmett’s question, and for the first time today I look over too. I noticed the way she ducked her head and hid behind her long, brown curly hair as soon as Ed had looked over. I saw the girl next to her, Jessica Stanley, do the same thing and I saw the latter’s shoulders shaking, indicating that she was giggling. She was incredibly beautiful, but I could tell from her shy stature and her unwillingness to look back over here in case Ed was still looking at her, she wasn’t aware of it. I looked away when I felt Edward jerk so unexpectedly that the table vibrated a little.

‘I can’t read her thoughts.’ He sighed, frustration clear in his onyx eyes.

‘How bizarre.’ I mused, putting a piece of watermelon in my mouth and chewing.

‘Ooo finally, someone’s mind you can’t snoop on,’ Emmett’s voice was practically dripping with mirth.

‘I’ll bet the curiosity is killing you.’ Jasper teased, his southern drawl wrapping around his words and a rare smile appearing on his face.

I assumed he could feel Ed’s frustration as well as any other emotions he wasn’t showing on his expression or through body language. And for the first time since that morning, the dread returned to my gut with such ferocity that it took my breath away. My eyes moved between Bella and Edward, the former shy but clearly interested, and the latter gleaming with curiosity and whatever other emotions Jasper had picked up on to implement his teasing. This is what my body had been warning me about— I was going to lose my best friend to the new girl.

The day had taken another abrupt turn when Edward had stormed out of Biology with a look of murder on his face. We usually met at his car after sixth period because we had a free after, so we just went home earlier. I’d hastily climbed in when he’d unlocked the Volvo and had remained silent as he’d driven faster than he normally did, muttering under his breath too low for me to hear. I’d finally spoken up when we reached the hospital, needing to know what was bothering him so much.

‘Ed, what’s going on?’ I asked, my voice tentative.

‘Bella, she’s my blood singer.’ He managed to get out between gritted teeth.

I felt my heart both sink and squeeze in sympathy for his plight. It sunk because I remembered the other half of that legend— it was said that if a humans blood sung for a vampire, that human was the true mate of said vampire. If that was the case then my earlier suspicions were right— I was going to lose Edward to Bella and the stab of pain in my chest almost took my breath away, but I pushed it aside. This wasn’t about me, this was about him.

‘Is there anything I can do?’ I reached out, my hand enveloping his right, where it rested on the steering wheel. When my hand came into contact with his, he flipped his palm up and held my hand in a gentle but firm hold.

‘I need to get away, my instincts want me to go after her, to kill her and I don’t know how long I’ll be able to resist while I’m so thirsty.’ He explained, his thumb moving back and forth over the back of the hand he was holding and I felt my lips lift into a smile when I realised he was comforting me when it was supposed to be the other way around.

‘I’ll come with you.’ It wasn’t like I had any parents to dictate my actions— they died a year ago, but I’d emancipated myself at fifteen, they were lovely people and I had loved them, but they just weren’t ready to be parents.

Both of them worked full time jobs that took them away from home weeks at a time— the longest I’d gone without seeing them had been two months. I’d gotten tired of being raised by a nanny seeing as she practically just left me to my own devices as soon as I was old enough and did her own thing when she was supposed to be looking after me. So I’d looked into emancipation and after talking to my parents about it on one of the rare days they were home before they jetted off again, they’d both agreed without much resistance. I assumed me saying I’d still like to live with them until I could afford my own place had swayed them, as it meant that not much would change—I’d still be at home, I’d just have the ability to make my own decisions without parental permission. When they’d died in a freak car accident a few years ago, I’d inherited everything seeing as I was their only living family and I was the only one listed on the will. After it happened I decided to move to Forks, remembering the few times my parents had bought me here when I was a child. I’d needed a fresh start where no one knew me as the kid who became rich after her parents died, and this had seemed like the perfect place. I’d actually arrived the same time as the Cullens and it had been then that our friendship had been born and it’d only flourished from there.

‘You don’t have to do that.’ He insisted, but his grip didn’t waver, and his dark eyes were almost pleading for me to disagree with him.

‘Ed, I love you and if you need me, I’m going to be there for you so don’t bother arguing with me.’ I gave him a firm look and when he finally smiled I sent him a wink.

His dark eyes softened with an emotion I couldn’t identify, and he placed a chaste kiss on the back of my hand before asking me to wait in the car while he spoke to his father. I took the time to compose myself and by the time he returned we were off to Alaska to see his extended family. We’d stopped to fill his tank after about an hour, and he’d also grabbed me some food to eat on the rest of the drive. It was the longest I’d ever been in a car, minus bathroom breaks and stopping just so I could stretch out my legs, but after two days and ten hours we made it.

I felt like I needed my whole body cracked by a chiropractor, but we were here, and honestly it was beautiful! The Denali Coven’s home was similar to the Cullen’s in the sense that it was secluded and practically in the middle of nowhere— you wouldn’t know where to find it unless you knew what you were looking for. It was a mansion surrounded by snow and the early evening light was a mixture of pink and blue, it took my breath away. We never got sunsets like this in Forks, and I’d almost forgotten how beautiful it could be.

‘Wow, it’s beautiful here.’ I whispered, unwilling to disrupt the scenery around me by being too loud.

‘It is.’ Edward mirrored my volume, and I was so enamoured by the effortless beauty around me that I didn’t notice the bronze haired vampire was staring at me.

After a while, the cold became too much to ignore and Edward led me inside the house, introducing me to the family I’d heard of but never met in person. They were all of course extremely beautiful and the way Tanya’s eyes lingered on the bronze haired vampire next to me made that stabbing feeling return, but I pushed it down. Edward was my friend, I had no right to be jealous of the female attention he received, I knew that but it didn’t stop the stab of pain in my heart. I chatted with Kate and Garrett while the others and Edward went hunting, they were only gone an hour but by the time they returned I was ready to drop. I’d only managed to snag four hours sleep in the past two days as a car wasn’t the comfiest place to lay your head.

My vampire friend of course knew immediately and politely excused us both to lead me to one of the only rooms in the entire house that actually had a bed. At that point he went to leave me to have my human moments, but at the last second my body acted without his consent and grabbed his wrist. As soon as my hand closed around his wrist he paused without hesitation, his now golden eyes observing me carefully— I knew he was aware of what I was going to say, but he always waited me to voice it in case I changed my mind.

‘Will you stay with me, until I fall asleep?’ I asked, knowing that if he didn’t I probably wouldn't get any sleep, despite my current state of exhaustion. I had an issue falling asleep in new places that lacked the familiarity of my own bed, at the moment Ed was the closest to comfort I had at the moment; he made me feel safe and calm.

‘Of course I will,’ he answered, his eyes softening to molten, plonking himself onto the twin bed while I got myself ready to sleep.

I changed in the bathroom, brushed my teeth, washed my face and applied night cream before joining Edward in the bedroom again. He remained on top of the covers, but he’d shifted so that he wasn’t inhibiting any movement for me. I climbed underneath the thick duvet and snuggled into Ed’s side, happy that his natural coolness balanced out the warmth from the covers and the heat Kate had put on throughout the house to keep me from freezing to death. I inhaled his sweet scent and felt myself melt into him when is arm wound around my shoulders and allowed me to snuggle closer to him. I fell into unconsciousness quickly after that, but just before I completely surrendered to the darkness, I thought I felt Edward’s lips kissing my hair, but I was too far gone to fully process it or respond.

‘I need to talk to you.’ Edward said as we were a day into our drive back to Forks.

He felt much better now, and was determined not to let a stranger rule his life and the legacy his coven represented. He didn’t want to let Carlisle down and was prepared to simply not breathe in the single period he shared with Bella if that was what it took for his family to continue living in Forks until they were ready to move on again. Honestly, he’d told me that after the first night we’d spent there, I’d barely opened my eyes before he told me the conclusion he’d come to over his blood singer moving to Forks. It took me longer to process his words than it should have, because it was morning but mostly due to the fact that I’d woken up exactly where I’d fallen asleep, which meant he hadn’t left me once throughout the night and that revelation had done funny things to my heart and my ability to focus. Once I had, I’d been relieved, a part of me had been worried he would go as far to relocate to Alaska until Bella left Forks.

‘About what?’ I wondered, putting the bottle of water I’d taken a few gulps of back into the cup holder.

‘I’m not interested in Bella in any romantic way, and I plan to stay as far away from her as possible. While there have been some instances over the centuries of a vampires blood singer also being his true mate, that’s very rare. It wasn’t the case for Emmett, and it’s not the case for me either.’ I could barely hear his soft voice over the sound of my heart thundering in my chest, ‘you’re my true mate, Y/N. I’ve known since I first saw you, which is why we all became so close to you so fast, my family and I usually shy away from making contact with humans but I had to know you. I was certain I’d scare you off when you found out that we were vampires, and when it didn’t I was sure you’d leave when you found out about how much I love you. I tried to cheat and figure out how you’d react to the news by focusing on your thoughts, but you never really lingered on my family and I when you’re around us. So, because I’m a coward I kept my knowledge to myself, content with having you in my life even if it meant I couldn’t truly be with you how I wanted to be. But after hearing your thoughts about losing me when you learned about Bella, and how you felt unworthy of me when you met Tanya, well I just couldn’t bear to keep this to myself when I knew that you were hurting because of it.’

I was silent for a long moment after his speech, because well it was a lot to process, and a part of me couldn’t believe it even though I’d just heard it with my own two ears. But when I saw the look in Ed’s eyes, the soft look that made his orbs look like honey, I was able to recognise the emotion that had always evaded me when I’d tired to put a finger on it— it was love.

‘I love you too, Edward.’ My voice was so soft that I could barely hear it, but of course he had no problem and a grin took over his face, lighting his expression so brilliantly that my breath caught at the sight of his effortless beauty.

After that somewhat emotional conversation, Edward had taken his hand in mine, and we spent the rest of the drive exchanging occasional anecdotes. But for the most part we remained in a comfortable silence and relaxed in the bubble of love and contentment that settled around us.

Third person POV

When Bella entered the cafeteria that particularly miserable Monday morning, she’d looked over to the Cullen’s table out of habit, only to freeze when she saw that there six people sat around the table, not the usual four she’d grown accustomed to seeing. After she managed to pull herself out of her reverie, she grabbed a bottle of lemonade and hurried to the table she sat at with Mike, Jessica, Angela, Eric and others whose names she hadn’t quite been able to remember. The curly-haired brunette kept her head down for ten minutes, tentatively sipping her lemonade and avoiding conversation as she felt daggers piercing into the side of her head. It was another five minutes before she decided enough was enough; she wasn’t going to let herself feel alienated by a boy who didn’t even know her from Adam. So she turned her head, looking up at the table from underneath her lashes and the sight that greeted her made her fell relaxed and disappointed all at once. None of them were looking in her direction, so she lifted her head a little more so she was able to observe the family with more ease. Emmett and Rosalie were wrapped up in each other, the curly haired blonde vampire grinning at his love as she kissed his cheek and murmured something that made the brawny boy throw his head back and release his signature booming laughter. Jasper and Alice were sat side by side, the blonde’s hand holding Alice’s underneath the table, both content to sit in silence and observe those around them. Edward and a girl whose name she’d learned was Y/N, they were... close in a way Bella couldn’t quite describe. She didn’t know what had changed between now and last week, but there had obviously been a shift in their relationship. The bronze haired boy had his arm wrapped around Y/N’s shoulders, and she was looking up at Edward with a look of pure adoration and love in her eyes, but what was more intense was that he was returning it with equal fervour. Throughout the hour, their eyes never left one another, and they were always touching in some way, whether it was Y/N holding Edward’s free hand and playing with his fingers as they quietly spoke to one another, or whether it was the bronze haired boy brushing Y/N’s hair behind her ear and letting his hand linger to caress the side of her face— they never once shifted so they weren’t touching. It was as if they were in their own little bubble, impenetrable to even the other family members sitting around the table with them, and Bella felt her heart ache at the sight. She longed for someone to look at her the way Edward was looking at Y/N. If she were being completely honest with herself, she had found herself interested in the boy, despite his horrid attitude towards her last week, but obviously that was in vein; he was in love with Y/N, that much was obvious.

With a sigh, Bella returned her attention to her table mates around her, making an effort to engage in their conversation and forget about the mysterious family sat to the right of her. Jessica had been right— there was no point in wasting any time there.

A/N: So I had this idea pop into my head last night, and to be honest I’m not completely sure how I feel about it?? But I’ve purged it from my mind now and it’s out there. I hope you liked it!!

Kinda late to the party, but if you have time: #12, Alice/Bella

(Things you said when you thought I was asleep)

The girls cuddle a lot.

Alice, very much like a cat, is all but addicted to Bella's warmth and actively seeks her out. Like a gravitational pull, the pixie cannot help but reach for her human any time she's near - hands clasped together, a cool palm on the small of a toasty warm back, elbows hooked together, or the lazy human draped over her back and shoulders. The fact that the vampire cannot contain her purr of delight is just the cherry on top.

Bella, on the other hand, has a very strict personal space bubble and understanding with everyone in her life. Everyone but Alice, that is. She is, frankly, absolutely enamoured with the pixie and could never bring herself to say no, even if she did mind. Which she decidedly does not. If Alice wants to forget the definition of the word space, who is Bella to argue?

With this unspoken agreement, sleepovers are nightly. Official or the far more fun, less official version where Alice quickly and efficiently scales Bella's wall and climbs in through the window, or Bella needlessly and pathetically grunts and cusses her way up Alice's wall to flop in through the window and gasp for breath for an entire five minutes after.

"Those are my favourites," Alice muses to the sleeping human. Her chin in her hand, elbow propped up against the pillow while Bella breathes deeply against Alice ribs, hugging her like a giant teddy bear. The vampire runs her fingers over Bella's shoulder, up and down, tracing lazy patterns. "Watching you wiggle into the room, angry as a sailor... my, the things you do to me."

The room is soft and dark, with the ever faint glow of moonlight pouring in through that very window. The deep purple bedsheets are tangled around Bella's waist, her hair tucked back behind her ear only because Alice couldn't resist. She can't go longer than a few moments without looking at that face, peaceful in moments like these. A tranquility that she's never known, no recollection of sleep, of ever truly shutting down like that.

{Alice has never been jealous of the humans around them, never missed what she never knew. Not until she met Bella.}

"The things you do for me," she sighs into the quiet. "Honestly, darling, it's a wonder that my brother ever thought you might be interested in him. Must be the ambiguous silence from that extra thick skull of yours, but I know better. I know you, Bella. I know you like I have never known another soul."

It's a... delicate situation that they're in, to be sure. A marriage and an infuriating telepath that assumes he knows everything because he knows more than most.

Alice smiles softly and walks her fingers back up the human's shoulder. "I have a feeling it ends well for us. You are uncertain - and young, everything is so new to you. I can wait. Much as I like to tease, you're far more clever than anyone gives you credit for. One of these days you'll realize you're madly in love with me. And shortly after that? You'll realize I've been madly in love with you since the very first day."

Beneath a stone chest, Alice's heart echoes what she feels in silence. A phantom beat.

For one very oblivious girl.

"But my god, Bella, you sleep a lot. This is ridiculously boring. You're lucky you're cute."

Another quiet moment passes by and Alice scoots down further on the bed. She thunks her head into the pillow, settling down and in for another long night of waiting for her best friend to wake up. Complaints or no, she truly doesn't mind - particularly when the sleeping human readjusts. Shuffles in closer, their legs tangled together, and drops herself against the pixie to rest a warm cheek against Alice's collar, tucking her face into the cool neck.

The vampire hums, swallows her purr, and tugs Bella in just that much closer. So distracted by how cute it is, she barely registers the rough, grumbled words against her skin.

"I know you, too."

#no such thing as too late #just fashionably late #i'll do all of these #and a few times with different pairings if y'all want #also like 5 of you all asked for this pairing with this number #so if yours doesnt get answered #its because i already did it

Alright guys this has been fun! But that's my twilight viewing over. I had an itch, and i scratched it. Thank you for the love and support. To the person who sent me the terrifying ask about if vampires shit blood, i will give you an answer soon!

To summarise, i would fuck Emmett. When i first watched this series i didnt know like anything about american history so all the jasper shit went over my head and i am less enamoured this time round. Jacob is still boring as bat shit and i dont understand the appeal, but he is fit so there's that. The imprinting on a baby thing is very difficult to come around to.

I do want to be a vampire, that hasnt changed, but i dont think id live w the cullens like i used to imagine. I think id just get a night job and chill in melbourne. Theres enough of a gay scene i could go out some days, and the night life is fucking active here so im chill. I dont need to check i can confidently say that like 5 of my mates would be down so we'd get a vamp posse together and get some half and half diet going on

Rosalie is a great character. I wish alice were more weird, she just seemed kinda quirky but i want her to be fucking off the wall. I wish anna kendrick was in more scenes she was hysterical

Charlie is the best character still

Bella and Edward are dull and i hate them. The actors are wonderful and have improved like fine wine, but the characters are a fucking challenge. I adore kirsten Stewart so much now

I just wish they didnt sparkle yo

Aro was totally weird and all of his scenes were a joy cos he full activated my fight or flight

Ta very much, team

Twilight Secret Santa Gift Exchange

Hello, @randomdemi I am your Secret Santa for the @twilight-secret-gift-exchange

I’ve written you a fic of Jasper and Alice being cute and Christmassy and I truly hope you like it!

Happy Holidays!

------

Word Count: 774

Theme: Christmas and Romance.

Characters: Jasper and Alice

-----

You’re On Thin Ice, Baby!

The festive period usually wasn’t different from any other time of the year for the Cullens’.

But with the addition of Bella and Renesmee to the family, the festive period was taken on with a more enthusiastic approach… thanks to Alice, of course.

Jasper sat back in his seat and watched as Alice danced and twirled around the room paper streamers in both hands. The gold and red paper fluttered behind her before it was strung up across the ceiling and Jasper took a moment to watch his love, her excitement radiating off her in waves.

She had created a wonderland of Christmas in a matter of minutes.

Garlands of holly had been placed carefully over the surface of the piano, wreaths hung upon the walls, and the extra fun addition of hidden mistletoe was set about the house and had already caught many visitors and family members off guard.

Poor Carlisle had shared one too many cheek kisses and hugs with a myriad of guests including some very hungry and festive wolves who had taken it all in their stride.

The good cheer in the room put Jasper at ease and he decided that to say thank you to Alice for her dedication to the decoration he would take her somewhere just the two of them.

And he knew just the place.

It had taken some doing, dragging Alice from the house and the rest of the decorations, but Jasper had convinced her that the tree did not need to be perfect and that letting Renesmee decorate the tree with her parents was a nice family tradition that she did not need to help with.

As much as she had hoped to stay she could clearly see the eagerness in his expression and relented almost immediately allowing him to whisk her away out into the early evening.

The snowfall that year had been heavy and the cold that would usually bite at the skin of any normal person seemed only to dance over them as they moved with ease over the snowdrifts and through the woods.

“I’m surprised you haven't realised what is going on already.” Jasper teased, his gaze set on Alice while he dodged through the trees with ease all the while awaiting her answer.

Alice only responded with a smile but said nothing until they broke through the line of trees and into a clearing that usually housed a quiet little lake- in its place, due to the winter, lay before them a simple natural ice rink with a few non-natural additions.

With the aid of Emmett, who strangely had needed no convincing to help Jasper, hundreds of lit candles were set around the lake in small clusters a soft and sputtering glow emanating around them.

Music played softly from somewhere, almost undiscernable to any human ear but loud enough for the vampires, and Alice swayed gently to the melody as she took in the natural beauty of the frozen lake.

“Care to dance with me, my lady?” Jasper moved to Alice’s side lifting a pair of pristine white ice skates up almost to her eye level. When Alice plucked them from his grip they shared a long look and Jasper could feel the adoration for him coming off her in waves.

It may have been only something small and, perhaps to some, a lazy gift but Jasper knew his Alice well knew that it was not the simplicity but the thought that had gone into it. After all was said and done, they knew they had always been meant for one another and as he thought this their lips met in a short yet sweet kiss.

“A dance would be lovely, thank you for such a beautiful gift,” Alice could only whisper out her words still enamoured with her love and the scene that was laid out before her. “This Christmas has already been so perfect but this has made me so happy just like you do.”

“Let me help you into your boots and we can dance for as long as you wish, dance the night away until the stars begin to fade and a new day comes into play.”

The world around them scarcely existed as they twirled and glided over the ice the soft sound of Salut d’Amour filling the air perfectly accompanying the lovers.

When the snow began to silently fall again and the candles sputtered out the two still did not stop and when the world went dark their eyes were still so steadily trained upon one another.

At that moment it truly felt like love could never die.
