Horizon: Chapter 1 - Rain and More Rain, Yay

It wasn't that I didn't like Forks. I loved Forks, most of the people I loved lived here, but holy crow did I hate the rain. I think the only thing that prevented me from choosing to live with my dad was the stupid weather in Forks, Washington. Well, that and the fact that I was almost entirely certain that Renee couldn't take care of herself without me there. But she has Phil now and I have. . . extremely soggy boots. I hate wearing boots but they're pretty essential in a place as gloomy as Forks.

I missed Charlie though, as well as Jacob. We haven't spent nearly as much time together as we did after his mom died. And now that Rachel and Rebecca are off and living their own lives, I'm basically the only female family member he has left. He used to be somewhat close to Leah, the ex of the current werewolf Alpha, Sam, but their relationship ended when Sam imprinted on her cousin/best friend Emily. No one could blame Leah for being closed off after that. She was always traveling around nowadays and when she was in Forks, it was never for very long. Though, she seems a lot happier and more upright in the new life she's leading. I admire that.

Being in Forks long-term after three years was surreal. It was a complete 180 from my toasty and dry Arizona. There's so much more moisture and green here, it was messing with my vision. Or maybe that's the difference in air quality, it made me want to lay on the gravel roads and list all of the differences, but that's considered impractical.

Charlie was ever silent next to me and if I didn't know any better, I'd think he was uninterested. But no, my father was just as awkward as me and doesn't know how to start conversations. I get a lot more talkative when I'm nervous, but I've learned to enjoy the quiet around Charlie. Out of everyone, ever, I've never felt out of place or overstimulated by his energy. Mostly because he didn't have much outside of sports and fishing.

I knew living with Charlie would be a simple arrangement, which I was looking forward to. I didn't have to do our taxes or pay all of our bill or make sure he had a steady job after quitting the old one. We could simply co-exist, and I could just be responsible for myself. Though I would take control of the kitchen. One thing Renee and Charlie had in common, the only thing they had in common, was that neither of them could cook for shit. I loved cooking though, so it would be nice to have control of a kitchen that wasn't tainted by Renee's failed monstrosities and Phil's flavorless "sport's diet". I have no problem with Phil, it's just his "cooking". No soul, lack of flavor, plus he'd make Renee and I follow it to make sure he stayed committed in the off season.

As we neared the house, Charlie got this secret smile that was wholly foreign on his face, and I noticed the corner of Billy Black's truck in our driveway. I was immediately suspicious and turned in my seat, fixing a wide-eyed stare on Charlie. I sat completely still and slowly leaned forward without blinking. Charlie tensed and leaned away.

"Bella, distracted driving is the number one cause of vehicular deaths," he recited in his police chief voice. I rolled my eyes, noting the roof and window of the car. the green was making me dizzy.

"I'm aware. What's going on?" I widened my eyes further and leaned in closer. I started to breathe obnoxiously loud to irritate him further.

"You'll find out when we get there. Girl, get the hell away from me," he exclaimed. I bet he was wishing he could just get out of the car at this moment.

"I don't like surprises, old man", I grumbled as I sat back in my seat correctly.

"Then don't think of it as one, think of it as a couple of homecoming presents," Charlie retorted sarcastically as he parked on the curb outside of our house. I didn't see Billy or Jacob, but that was clearly their truck in the driveway, which another vehicle was hitched to. It was covered with a tarp so I couldn't see anything but the bottom of the wheels.

"I don't like presents, either. Daaaad", I whined childishly to let him know of my disproval. He very pointedly rolled his eyes at me and turned off the cruiser.

I wrestled with the seatbelt, trying to free myself from the confines of this cage to go argue with my father some more. However, I got distracted by the flash of flushed russet and inky black barreling into my window. Before I could even register why the cruiser was groaning and shaking, I was yanked out of the car and spun around in the air. The combination of the overwhelming amount of green, the fast paced movement of my assailant, and the spinning was getting to be too much and I felt like I was going to hurl my guts out.

When I was finally put down, I immediately crumbled to my knees, closing my eyes and laying my spinning head onto the cool, damp grass. At least it was good for something, dumb green grass.

“Oh crap! Bella! Are you okay?!” Jacob. I was gonna kill him if I ruined this shirt, it was nice despite the fact that it wasn’t one of my summery blouses that I loved and missed dearly. Fucking Forks.

“Isabella Marie Swan! What’re you doing yoga poses on the lawn for?” I heard a shout from the porch. Charlie.

At the same time, someone bellowed, “Jacob Black, you better not have had anything to do with this!” Billy.

Rough hands cupped my armpits and hauled me upright. I shoved my hand in Jacob’s face, not forcefully, and I held it there until I felt better. When I did, I shoved him away by his face.

“Dude, what the hell? I almost threw up,” I said, finding my balance and walking up the porch.

“You okay, Bells?” Charlie asked, laying a hand on my shoulder and helping me inside.

“Yeah, glad to be home”, I muttered as I leaned down to hug Billy and greet him.

“Glad to have you home, sweet girl”, Billy said fatherly. It was like having a second dad, which is surely the way Jake sees Charlie as well.

“So what’s with this surprise y’all had in mind?” I asked diplomatically. I could mouth off to Charlie, because he knows better, but Billy and Jacob took time out of their days and put effort into helping my dad.

“Well, we know you have money saved up for a car, but that’s taken care of. Give or take a few minor repairs you might want”, Jacob explained, jogging over the tarp-covered vehicle.

I winced lightly. “That’s really considerate, you guys, but I really wish you hadn’t gone through all that trouble just for me.” It wasn’t that I wasn’t appreciative, but I liked earning my possessions. And I always felt guilty when people bought me things. Renee loved to give sob stories about being a single mom to get things out of people and I felt as though I was doing the same thing when people gave me things.

“Don’t worry sweetheart, it’s not anything too special. The damn thing used to be a little father-son project for me and Jacob. Now we’re putting it to good use and saving you a bit of money,” Billy dismissed casually.

It made me feel worse. That must have taken months, if not a couple of years of work and effort and here they were, handing it to me after three years of my absence.

“Don’t start that”, Jacob huffed while untying the tarp. “It was just lying around, unused and uncared for, and it’s easier for all of us not to go car shopping and making sure you ain’t getting a shit deal.”

“Jacob! Language!”

Jacob rolled his eyes and in one very exaggerated move, pulled off the tarp.

My mind was blown.

Sure, it was super fricking old and the paint job was a mess, but something about this behemoth truck reminded me of Arizona more than any of the little knick knacks I packed. And a helluva lot more useful. My eyes welled up a bit, but I ducked my head bashfully to cover it up.

I ran to Jacob and hugged him in gratitude before excitedly opening the door to get a feel of my new baby. God, he was perfect. Warmer than I was expecting. Cool, if not chapped, leather seats, a bit of frostiness on the edges of the window. It was perfect. It was…Bella. I loved it.

“This is perfect! Oh my god, thank you so much!” I hollered out the open window that took me a bit too much effort to roll down.

“We’re glad you like it, Bells. Now come inside for your other surprise”, Charlie said while rubbing his hands together to keep warm.

I hopped out the truck, actually looking forward to this next gift. I never really how well they truly knew me. Renee and Phil always did their best, but I had the feeling that the main motivation behind their gifts to me was to show how much money they spent on me. Or they’d just plain gift me things that they like, rather than what I liked. It was a unique, welcome feeling to receive things that have actual thought put into them.

I ran up to the porch, almost tripping and busting my ass, and Jacob didn’t do a damn thing but laugh at me for almost eating shit on the walkway.

Charlie in particular seemed very animated about this particular gift. He kept glancing at me in anticipation for my reaction when I saw it.

It was beautiful.

He had opened all of the cabinet doors, the pantry, as well as the fridge and freezer. Everything, too to bottom, was absolutely filled with various types of food and spices and herbs. Veggies and fruits that weren’t even in season. Meats, cheeses and so many condiments. I was in heaven. Ever ingredient for every recipe I wanted to try was right there for the taking. This time, a tear did slip down my cheek.

“Oh, Dad”, I whispered, still in awe.

“You like it right? I told your mom to send me ingredients for the recipes you’ve made or wanted to try. Took a couple of months, but I finally got a long enough list and got to work. You like it, right?” Charlie asked once more when I didn’t say a word.

Honestly, I was a bit choked up. “I love it. I love all of this. Being here with you three. The truck. This kitchen. It’s better than I could’ve ever imagined. Thank you so much, Dad.”

He dug his feet into the wooden floor a bit, mumbling a response. His cheeks were bright red and his hands fiddled with the nervous energy from the attention.

“Welp. Me and Jake best get going before the sun sets. Don’t wanna run into any trouble out in the dark”, Billy said ominously. Before I could ask for clarification, he continued. “Glad to have you home, Bella. Take some time to settle in and get ready for school.”

Ugh, school. The one thing that could put a damper on my mood. But I wouldn’t let it ruin my first day. Forks was looking better and better every minute.

I guess the green wasn’t so bad after all.

~*~

End of Chapter One! Any feedback or anything like that? Apologies for any spelling mistakes, I’m like super tired and dealing with a blood disorder.

Hope yall like everything and here’s a small summary of chapter 2:

Bella’s first day at Forks High!

Bella goes to school and hears about the strange family that recently moved in. Later, she meets a couple of them.

She makes some new friends, too. Good for her.

[alika-de-kler]

It is

Oneshot with possible continue with Rosalie Hale/Male!Bella Swan! (By the way, it is Bella "Bulat" Swan)

Summary:

"Bulat Swan had only one rule, which he religiously followed: do not love. It was almost his own religion.

And then she has came and baptized him."

[lavender-at-heart]

Could you write Bella swan x tall fem vampire reader? I need reader to feed on humans that are criminals and almost always smokin a cigarette

Omg yes gay Bella is the best version of her. THIS FIC IS NOT COMPLETED, I FELT BAD FOR TAKING SO LONG SO HERES A SHORT VERSION, I WILL ADD TO IT SOON WOTH A MUCH LONGER ENDING!!!! if you want to be tagged in the finish product lmk. Also there are themes of sa (think alleyway scene in first movie) and I know that's an uncomfortable subject so I kinda glazed over and left out detail for that part.

Bella Swan let out a huff of boredom as she walked down the dreary street. An attempt to regain her friendship with Jessica ended up with Jess being spooked. Bellas new tastes were too "extreme " for her and now Bella was left alone, outside the movie theater in Port Angeles. A little miffed but not unpleasant to be alone again, she decided to not make waste of the evening out. Unsure of where to go, she headed forward, down the dark path of concrete, narrowly missing a chance ride on a motorcycle. Bella was in a dark place. Mentally, always, but right now her mind led her to enter a particularly dingey alley way. Her heart seemed to pull her towards the dark abyss before her, much like how her heart pulled her towards biology class on her first day at Forks High.

As she neared a turn in the path a sinking feeling began to creep up her spine. A feeling she had not felt since...

There was a man. Smoking, head turned pointedly towards the ground. He stood there like a beacon to Bella.

Something to make him see me

The man looked up, with that familiar look. Sinister comments laced with something sickly sweet, and Bella knew he'd come running. He had to have, surely he would. The man was not shy in his approach, and Bella did her best to stay calm. Every seccond her safety grew thin. Every minute she took one apprehensive step back. Until there were no more steps to take. Just keep it up for a little while longer, she told herself. He'll be here any moment.

But that moment never came. The sinking realization that Bella was alone with this man, and Edward was nowhere to be found made her stomach drop.

Just when she was about to really try to scream and run, the man was shoved to the wall opposite to Bella, the speed of it whooshing in her face. She knew what it was, the who was not certain. Her headt skipped wildly.

He came! After all!

These thoughts were cut short after she quickly realized her saviour was female. Maybe Alice had seen her in danger and come to the rescue. But this was not Alice. Not Alice, not Esme, not Rosalie, not even Victoria.

"Didn't anyone ever tell you it's impolite to harass pretty girls?"

The metallic tone dripped from the vampires lips, before a crunch was heard. This was no vegetarian, that's for sure. Bella stood, stuck to the wall like flies in a glue trap. Not afraid as she once was, but she knew how crazed normal vampires could be.

Once she was done drinking she turned around with a cool look on her face.

"Thanks" the human girl replied with ample sincerity.

The vampire held a quizzical expression. No fear? No running? No concern or confusion? Seeing this, quiet Bella made an attempt to explain.

"I've been around vampires before"

"Ah" was all the ethereal woman said. The way she said it reminded her of him.

She reached into her old denim jeans and retrieved a cigarette of all things. How odd, Bella thought. She let out a huff of laughter. The flame from the lighter contrasted with cool toned skin, followed by a drag and blow of smoke. The woman looked at her cigarette and spoke again.

"Started as a human, was never able to kick it. Not like it can kill me anyway." She outstretched her hand and offered Bella the cigarette. Bella looked meek and wide eyed. Not wanting to seem "uncool" She took it and gave it a try. She inhaled wrong, she exhaled wrong and then coughed too much. The woman laughed and gave her a pat on the back, red eyes crinkled with amusement.

"you're just a baby aren't ya?"

Bellas face turned beet red. "No I'm not, I just, just never had one before." She stuttered out.

"Breathe in a little, hold, breathe out."

Bella tried to listen to the advice given to her but all she could focus on was the way her voice hit the air. A warm feeling filled her despite the cold weather. A parasitic curiosity filled her. Who was she? Where was she from? How old? Name? Favorite this? Favorite that? Bella wanted to know everything and anything about her, immediately. She knew she would follow this woman to the ends of the earth, and Edward could go fuck himself.

[panlight]

Do you think switching the main plot of new moon and eclipse would make better sense plot wise in the rewriting of Forever Dawn? Twilight happens, and during the summer we don't see, Victoria gets her idea about a newborn army and Edward pushes Bella towards her human friends which leads her to forming a friendship with Jacob. Jacob and the others turn because there are even more vampires close to them, newborn battle happens and Edward realises that every second he spends with Bella is dangerous to her so he decides to leave. The family are still not that close to her and are dealing with the fact that they murdered a bunch of innocent teenagers so they don't particularly care about leaving Forks. And then a few months later Edward thinks Bella is dead goes to the Volturi, Bella runs to rescue him, they realise they can't live without eachother, Bella agrees to get married if that's what Edward wants before he turns her and then Breaking dawn proceeds as planned. While Bella's relationship with Jacob and the pack would be very different (no love triangle in my mind), and the pack itself would need to be rewritten, it would give the newborn fight consequences that don't exist in canon.

That's an interesting idea!

The newborn fight has always been so fascinating to me in that it's the whole thing the book is leading up to and then the narrator isn't even there to see it. I am firmly in the camp that Bella wanting to be at the fight is ridiculous and never really understood why she would think that was remotely a reasonable idea. I mean I get it's about her abandonment issues and how worried she will be about him if they are apart but a human at a fight-to-the-death between vampires and giant wolves is just an immeasurably foolish idea. And it's not like she's the only person who will be worried; Billy and Sue and Old Quil know about everything and can't be there, either! Emily and Kim will be worried about Sam and Jared. But again, from Bella's narration she's the only one who will have to be away and worrying and she's can't bear it so Edward sits it out (which is what leads Victoria to finding them, which they should have realized because that was the whole point of sending Bella with Alice and Jasper in Twilight!).

And then of course there's also no fallout because we have to get into FD/BD wedding mode almost immediately.

So having the newborn threat first and THAT being the catalyst to Edward leaving would at least make the newborn fight matter. And it also neutralizes the common critique of "how could they leave when they knew Victoria was out there?" because presumably Victoria is dead.

And the Cullens leaving perhaps make more sense here, because not only was Bella in danger, the whole town was. Rosalie was right, this was dangerous, and not just for them.

Would make it harder to have wolves at the newborn fight but since again, it doesn't matter to anyone's relationship or character development, it could be rewritten and nothing would meaningfully change in BD.

It would give us more space between the fight to the death and the fairy tale wedding which would be a plus.

Summary: Two instances when your curiosity gets the best of you and Jasper has to distract you from the truth. And one instance when he's not there to do so. Curiosity might just be the thing that kills you.

Words: 1768

Note: I like this part a lot more, so I hope you guys also enjoy it! I tried to do a quick but believable process of discovery. Longer note at end.

Also @little-miss-loves-fictional-men your comment on my last post almost made me cry. Thank you for that.

“So you’re not related to your siblings, right?”

A month into the semester, and Forks feels like home already. Largely in part to Jasper, not that you’ll ever tell anyone that, especially him. It took only a few days for you to become fast friends. Being around him felt easy, maybe because he never seems to judge you for your odd habits, or maybe just because he’s one of the kindest, most empathetic people you’ve ever met.

Whatever it is, your friendship quickly breaks from the confines of the school. Whether it be studying at you new favorite coffee shop - though you’re thinking of going somewhere else since he rarely wants a drink or anything - or going on a walk through the woods as you’re doing now.

Jasper offers a wry smile as he helps you over a large log, “Just Rosalie, I’m afraid.”

You shoot him a disapproving look, though he catches the glimmer of laughter in your eyes, “Don’t be mean, Jasper Hale. She doesn’t seem that bad.”

It is strange though. Except for their matching gold hair, there’s not a singular similarity between him and Rose. They’re honestly the most different out of the family, personality-wise at least. Maybe that’s normal for siblings though.

“No, I suppose she’s not,” Jasper murmurs, looking up at the sky, which is practically hidden behind the canopy of pine needles. “Though I’d much rather listen to Edward go on about Bella than her talk about herself.”

Bella Swan. The girl who moved to Forks just one year before you. You have a class with her, and you honestly like her quite a bit. While you’re both awkward, it’s nice to know someone else who’s close with the Cullens.

And she might know things that could answer your growing list of questions.

Like why are they all so pale? Why do they avoid most of the school? Why do you never see them on the rare sunny days Forks gets?

“So why do you ask about my siblin’s darlin’?” Ah. Right. You weren’t being too subtle, you guess.

“I just think it’s crazy how similar you all look,” you explain, keeping your eyes glued to your shoes. Mud sticks to the sides, both dry and wet. You’ve been walking for a while now. “I mean, you all look different, obviously, but you all have the same eyes. And you’re all gorg-”

You bite down hard on your tongue and come to a stuttering stop. 

That wasn’t supposed to come out.

Jasper stops right beside you, lips drawing into a wolfish, slanted smirk. You stand completely frozen, eyes wide as he steps closer, too close, leaning forward against the tree behind you. Your heart flounders wildly in your chest. Sometimes you forget he’s so tall.

“I’d sure like to hear you finish that declaration, miss (L/n),” he hums, tone bright with barely concealed mirth.

“Nope!” Your heart lurches as you duck under his arm and scuttle away. Heat burns across your cheeks despite the chill in the air. His laughter echoes behind you, warm and deep and lovely. Too lovely. Your face goes darker. “You didn’t hear anything. I didn’t say anything. Oh hey, look at that tree!”

Jasper watches you dash away, relief warring with his amusement as he follows close behind. You’re observant, more observant than he expected. He’ll have to be more careful. At least he was able to distract you.

This time.

---

“Do you always run this cold?” You poke Jasper’s shoulder as you pass him on the way to your desk.

The blond glances up from his textbook, eyes narrowing as if he’s trying to figure out where you’re going with this, “I suppose I do.”

“Maybe it’s cause you don’t eat enough,” you muse, reaching for the bag of chocolate you keep hidden in the bottom drawer. You hold it out to him with a conspiratorial smile, “I always like to keep a secret stash, want one?”

“No thank you, darlin’.” Jasper smiles, though it’s tighter. Maybe you only see it because you’re looking for it, but you swear he looks uncomfortable for a split second.

“I feel like I never see you eat,” you admit, putting the bag back in its hiding spot, “Even at school. None of you eat.”

Jasper’s brow furrows. He can feel your concern, but also your curiosity. They radiate off you in equal degrees, so he can’t tell how carefully he should tread.

“My siblings and I are on a…special diet,” he explains slowly, eyes falling back to his textbook. He can’t hold your worried gaze while he lies to you, even if it’s not really a lie. “We prefer not to talk about it.”

You tilt your head, pouting softly, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to push.” 

Guilt. Jasper can feel it biting at the back of his mind. But he smiles and murmurs a soft, “Thank you for understandin’.”

You nod. It still seems strange, though. The more you think about it, the more questions you have. You’ve hardly seen him even drink water, and that can’t be normal, even more for a special diet. But it’s not like he looks unhealthy. No one can look that good if they’re not eating enough.

A sudden heat creeps up your neck. Coughing awkwardly, you turn your attention to your own homework, trying to not focus on just how good Jasper always looks. The man is surprisingly fit under all those sweaters -

Then why does he run so cold? The thought comes back to you, like an annoying fly circling your head. You’ve noticed the same thing about Alice when she gave you a hug. Their touch is like ice, cold enough to leave you shivering after the smallest graze. It’s the kind of cold you read about in your murder mysteries, when someone is dead.

Curiosity burns hot in your chest, making you all but forget the slight warmth in your cheeks. Some things just don’t add up. And you know you shouldn’t pry, it’s none of your business and you don’t want to push him away. So why does it matter so much to you?

“Do you need help with that problem, darlin’?”

You jump, glancing up to find Jasper looking over your shoulder at the worksheet in your lap. You didn’t even hear him get off the bed. It’s almost like he’s a ghost.

“Um, sure, yah.” Your growing anxiety seems to slip away with him so close, and with it goes your curiosity. Shaking your head, you cast him an apologetic smile, “Sorry, I’m a bit distracted I guess. Did I space out?”

Jasper squeezes your shoulder warmly, voice tender with something fond, “You were starin’ at it for a few minutes. I figured it might have been givin’ you trouble.”

“Yah, yah, I guess I’m stuck.” To be honest, you don’t even know what worksheet you’re on. Help can’t hurt though. “Thanks, Jasper.”

“It’s my pleasure.”

Another successful distraction.

---

“Huh.”

You pause in your reading, jaw dropping a little.

To end the quarter, your U.S. History teacher was allowing you to do a report on anything that has been covered in class. You decided to do research into the Civil War, specifically the confederate army since you felt like it was often dismissed in class discussions. Understandably, since it’s an uncomfortable topic for most.

But you were curious, as always. There’s no doubt they were on the wrong side of history, proven by how things ended. Even if you hate what they stand for, you want to know both sides of it.

So you dug up some old books. And by old, you mean old. Written very close to the time period of the war old. They’re only digital copies, since there’s no way you could afford them otherwise, but still. And it took searching some obscure website to find them.

It makes this all the more confusing. You double check the publication date. The copyright. All of it. They all confirm the age of the book.

So how are you looking at what seems to be a carbon copy of Jasper?

It’s an old photo, dated 1862. Black and white and a bit fuzzy. A young man sits perched on a horse, decked out in a full confederate uniform and a cowboy hat. His hair is longer, light, brushing his chin, just like Jasper’s. But that’s not it. No, it’s something about his face. About the lopsided grin on his lips.

You quickly skim the few paragraphs next to the photo, eyes going wider with each word you read.

‘Jasper Whitlock, born in Texas, became the youngest man to earn the rank of Major in the Confederate Army. Major Whitlock was labeled missing in action in the year 1863, when he disappeared while evacuating U.S. citizens who were at risk in the wake of the war.’

Jasper.

They even have the same name. Different last names, but still. Can that be a coincidence? Maybe they’re related, you try to reason. That wouldn't make sense, after all. It’d be crazy. Absolutely crazy. 

You decide to google this man, Jasper Whitlock, but only a few generic results for ‘jasper’ show up. Nothing about the young Army Major. You lean back in your chair, brows furrowing. That doesn’t make sense either. Unless-

“What are you reading?”

You shriek, slamming your laptop shut.

Bella holds her hands up, eyes wide. 

“Oh my gosh, you scared me!” You press a hand to your chest, laughing breathlessly. “I thought you were Jasper.”

The brunette looks at you strangely, “Why? Are you hiding something from him?” 

You flinch. That’s straightforward. For Bella at least.

Trying to give her an easy-going smile, you explain, “No, he just has the tendency to sneak up on me. I’m working on a history project, that’s all. He knows all about this stuff and I definitely don’t, so I’m trying to spare myself some embarrassment.”

You hate lying. It makes you feel gross, but you don’t want to freak Bella out. There’s a lot of ways this could be explained, you’re sure, and you’re probably overthinking all of it. 

Yah. There’s no way that this Jasper Whitlock could be connected to your Jasper. It’s impossible.

Right?

This time, Jasper isn’t there to blow out the spark.

---

Unless.

The word rings around in your head.

Ringing and ringing and ringing until you jolt up in bed later that night and snatch your laptop from your nightstand.

‘cold skin’

‘doesn’t eat’

‘avoids sun’

‘doesn’t age?’

You click enter and only one word comes back.

‘vampire’

---

Next

So! I was so excited to incorporate the whole history thing! My headcannon is that Jasper would have been recorded in history because of his accomplishments (I mean, the real youngest major of the confederate army was 36 so him being 19 is crazy) but the Cullens have worked to to keep his name off the internet somehow. I'm sure one of them could pick up some computer skills with all that time.

And that's why you only see him mentioned in old, written text. I don't know, I think it's something really cool to think about! And what a cool way to do a reveal!

Anyways! I hope you guys enjoyed this!

Hello! Been reading your twilight posts recentlt and was wondering what you think might have happened if James had killed Emmett in the ballet studio, particularly how it would have affected Rosalie/her dynamic with the Cullens?

Bella feels horribly guilty to learn that her stupid plan to save her mother (who had not been kidnapped) as well as the fact that she drew James's attention in the first place (which would not have happened had she not intruded in the Cullen's world where she feels she doesn't belong) got someone killed. Not just someone, either, but one of the Cullens, Edward's beloved brother, and Emmett who seemed so nice for all she didn't know him that well.

Bella is devastated and feels increadibly guilty and horrible.

This is made worse by Rosalie's (understandable if not ideal) reaction where I imagine she blames Bella to her face. This never would have happened if Bella had not been involved in their lives, not come to that baseball game, or if they hadn't saved her from that stupid van/killed her the night after like Rosalie wanted to. Rosalie feels as if she's traded Emmett for Bella and she hates that.

Edward of course blames Rosalie for having the worst reaction possible and actively driving Bella into a depression.

I imagine Rosalie leaves, Edward clearly isn't leaving Bella (as I imagine he'd want to hold on a little longer/this wouldn't be the New Moon wakeup call for him) and she wants time on her own to grieve/not get into fights with Edward over whose fault it is that Emmett died. No doubt Rosalie also blames the family somewhat as if they had sided with her and chosen not to protect Bella, Emmett would be alive. It's understandable why they wanted to protect Bella but it also was dangerous and risked someone dying for what. Rosalie needs some time to process alone.

Bella now feels she's driven Rosalie out of the family, this makes her guilt even worse.

I imagine Bella actively tries to avoid the Cullen household that summer (unlike canon) as being there reminds Bella of what happened/she believes it reminds the Cullens of what happened...

Honestly, I think Bella dumps Edward. She tries to hang on to him but as the weeks go by and his family is clearly falling apart, and it's all her fault, and he's sitting there being so sweet when she just effectively murdered his brother...

I don't think Bella could do it, it'd be too much and she'd double down on "Edward deserves better than me". Especially when she can justify that Edward can't read her thoughts, he's clearly too good to ever blame her when she deserves it, and she can say to herself "Edward doesn't realize how awful of a person I am."

So, Bella breaks up with him so that he can have someone better, his family can move, and they can heal. Edward is shocked and horrified but in the midst of his despair and depression remembers that this was what he wanted, he wanted to leave Bella eventually and her doing it versus him might be better. So, Edward leaves immediately and steals all her pictures/every gift he ever gave her.

Bella sinks into her New Moon depression immediately (made worse by Emmett's death and the fact that Bella did this herself and now is weak for wanting to take back her decision and oh god she's the worst person on the planet).

The Hallucination Edward times are even more fraught as Bella feels doubly guilty in that she shouldn't want to summon Edward and yet she can't live without him. I imagine this results in even riskier behavior as Bella genuinely thinks she should die and gets closer and closer to actively wanting it.

Bella probably succeeds in killing herself.

(The Jacob thing here... I don't know if he could help because the thing is Bella despises herself so much/feels so guilty and Jacob has no context for understanding this even if he becomes a wolf (added that Bella now is responsible for people dying because Victoria is actively hunting her) that I don't think Bella can use her friendship with him to claw her way out of depression.

He'd probably just make her feel worse given he shifted because of Victoria which is because of her and have we mentioned Emmett is dead?)

I imagine Alice does not tell Rosalie in part because Rosalie's not near her when it happens also because... well... bad history and Alice blames Rosalie for this mess.

This means no one tells Edward.

Edward's suicide is thus put off for as long as he feels he can live without Bella. When he breaks and goes to check on her, he discovers she's died and goes to Volterra to kill himself where no one is able to stop him from breaking the law.

Siren’s song (intro headcanons)

A new vampire moves in Forks and decides to change the narrative.

This is so self indulgent: reader is gender neutral, reader is a newborn vampire and owns a cat (mentioned once as Tina), is reader a bit of Mary sue/Garry Stu ? Maybe, it’s not very long but I wanted to post something before I had to concentrate on my final exams.

Siren’s song: A powerful ability that can charm any creature as well as nature (human, Vampire, werewolf, animals, plants) by singing. It is able to 'breath life' into things.

* At the same time Bella had to move to Forks, a new vampire appeared out of nowhere.

* The shapeshifters were furious and the Cullens had no idea how to approach you.

* On one hand, you were on their territory, as well as the wolves, surrounded by vulnerable humans.

* On the other, you literally moved in. Bought a house, lived in it, and haven’t proved agressive in any way.

* Alice had visions of you and Edward getting along, but he had no intentions of getting involved in this mess.

* But then you showed up at their high school.

* Since you and Bella were both the « new kids », you were able to bond pretty easily and become friends.

* She, of course, asked questions about you: Why were your eyes red? Why were you so cold? Why did you avoid sunlight.

* You pinned it all on a mysterious illness and Bella felt embarrassed about asking, but you assured her that she was allowed to ask questions.

* You became a bit of a duo, hanging out at the cafeteria, bookstores and even taking walks through the forest.

* And that’s when you started to feel followed.

* One look at your eyes made the Cullens understand that you were a newborn, and potentially very dangerous.

* Though, you seemed to have a lot of control over your thirst. Having no issues being around a lot of humans at once, let alone having the occasional physical contact with Bella.

* Today, Edward and Rosalie were tasked with following you around the woods. You were on their territory after all.

* Edward started to feel some sort of admiration for you. You felt so… human still. You were a loner, but seemed approachable.

* He could hear your thoughts clearly:

* « I hope there’s a big animal nearby. »

* « Should I buy Bella a friendship gift ? »

* « I need to get more food for Tina. »

* « Someone’s following me. »

* Edward had to grab and hold back Rose to keep her from getting spotted by you. She mentally cursed him off and both of them waited for you resume your hunt.

* But then, everything became blurry.

* They both remembered a voice, and woke up to two dead deers in the middle of the clearing, with you nowhere to be seen.

So You Wouldn't Get Married?

Jasper x reader ~ So you wouldn't get married?

Summary:

You we're sitting with The Cullens + Bella, your sister (You're adopted), at lunch time. And the topic of marriage came up and Jasper was a little displeased with your answer.

It was slowly becoming normal for you and your sister Bella to sit together at the Cullen's table during lunch. You've slowly been building a relationship with each and every one of them. Alice as always is the sweetest so it was no surprise that the two of you are friends. Your relationship with Rosalie was instant. Which was surprising because she basically hates your sister Bella and just about everyone else.

You don't know why though. Edward he was always kind to you, You could always talk to him and not feel uncomfortable. Emmett to say the least is fun to fight with, It's a very entertaining friendship. Now Jasper.. Your relationship with him you can tell it is not going to be on the lines of friendship. If anything that is Your Lover, Your Man, and Your protector. But none of that has been said out loud for all anyone could tell that was your homie.

You and Bella have been going to Forks High for about 4 weeks now. You both were immediately captivated by The Cullen's. Or precisely her Edward and You Jasper. Jasper was very quiet and reserved. It didn't help that you were the same but that all changes when you get comfortable with whoever the person is. With Jasper it didn't seem like it would change.

Everyone found him weird and strange. But you found him mesmerizing and a little… Addicting. You find it strange that from the first time you've laid your eyes on Jasper Hale, You've never been able to take them off of him. He's always on your mind and if he's not the first thing on your mind he's in the back of your head but best believe he is there. If you didn't have it like that there was no way you would be able to get anything in your life done.

"So y/n and Bella my parents are getting married this friday and I was wondering if you guys would come, Oh and the rest of you are invited as well!" Jessica said standing next to Bella with a fake smile on her face. I never liked her. I feel she only talks to us because the Cullen's talk to us and they showed interest in us and not her.

"I- I don't know Jess, we might be going to visit our mom this Friday." Bella said, sending Jessica a small sympathetic smile.

"What about you y/n?" Jessica turned to ask you. Annoyed that she asked you when the question was already answered for you by Bella.

"Didn't you just hear Bella answer you? We're going to go visit our mom on friday. And plus even if I was available I wouldn't go. I don't do weddings." I replied, turning my attention back to the window taking a bite of my cucumber sticks I chopped up this morning. After those words fell out of your mouth you felt eyes on you.

And you knew exactly who it was.

She scoffed, turning her fake smile into a real one looking towards the Cullen's. "What about you guys? Please can you guys come? It would mean everything to me." She asked once again.

"We have a camping trip on Friday, I'm sorry." Alice replied, smiling back at Jessica.

"Can't you just reschedule? You guys go camping every week!" Jessica practically yelled out at Alice. 

This brought you out of your trance and made you glance at the rest of the Cullen's. Bella was sitting in front of you and Edward was on the left of her. Alice was on the right of her. Emmett was on the right of Edward. Rosalie was on the left of you and Jasper on your right. You two always found each other sitting next to each other no matter where you sat.

"Unfortunately we can't." Rosalie replied in a firm voice. That basically said shut the hell up and walk away before I make you. Shooting her and an ice cold stare Jessica walked away mumbling something under her breath that made you raise an eyebrow. 

"What was that?" You said loud enough for her to hear you making Jessica walk away a little faster. 

Her actions made Emmett laugh as he wrapped his arms around Rosalie as she glared at Jessica's retreating form.

Alice looked sympathetic. Meanwhile Edward looked like he was having a conversation with himself but he had a sly smile on his face. And Bella was just playing with her found as she voiced earlier not really having an appetite for anything.

"So what do you mean by ya don't do weddings?" You hear a southern voice beside you. Turning your head to look at Jasper golden eyes. You felt yourself wanting to melt from just his gaze.

"I mean basically what's the point? Half the people who get married get divorced like 3 Years later. They just leave the marriage with less money, heartbreak and trust issues. And that all comes free with life so why would I ever go through with it?" You answered.

While Bella was nodding in agreement Edward shot his stare at her in confusion as a frown soon settled on his face.

Jasper now too had a slight frown on his face.

"What about soulmates?" Alice asked, smiling a genuine smile at you.

"I love the concept of soulmates, I believe that everyone has one in some form. Some one more than others. But me? Nah I don't think I do." You replied with a shrug.

"And why's that?" Jasper asked, turning your attention back to him. His southern accent just did something to you fuck the accent. His voice. 

"Because I'm too much to handle. I don't believe that I have the personality to be someone's soulmate. I'm not the nicest if anything I'm mean. I don't like alot of people. I tend to shut down and Block out the people I love when things get hard for me. I have attachment issues which also makes it hard for me to love. It's either I wanna be by your side 25/8 or I don't wanna be in your presence at all like I want to love you from a distance. When I love someone I love hard. The other person tends to never be able to handle it. Which is also why I don't do weddings." You said, Looking back outside noticing the raindrops on the windows.

"So you wouldn't get married?" Jasper said with a frown on his face as if it pained him. Edward was intensely staring at Jasper for some reason. And everyone else was watching the dispute between me and Jas.

"I mean if I were too it would have to be in Switzerland and most can't afford sooo." You laughed it off biting into another cucumber stick.

"And if he could afford?" Jasper questions with a sly smirk on his face tilting his head a little.

Looking at his golden eyes you squint just a little as if to tell him you're suspicious of him and his questions.

"If he could afford it would be difficult for him to get me on the plane. Because who knows if I'll even like him like that." You replied with a little flirt in your voice.

"I'll tell ya what doll if you end up not getting on the plane with him, just know that my jet will be waiting for you. And I'll be waiting for you at the end of the corridor." Jasper winked. 

Flabbergasted by what I just heard and saw I didn't have time to reply as the bell rang. I reached down to grab my bag looking up to try to respond to Jasper; I realized that he was gone.

"What the fuck was that" I breathe out in a small whisper.

Jasper Cullen just flirted with me.

[queenofglassbeliever]

Dream Rosella fic. Set in Eclipse. Starts around the sleep over and Rosalie telling Bella her story. Canon diverges at the graduation when Renée does show up for it.

Rosalie somehow sees how narcissistic Renée is. It sparks a deep conversation between Rose and Bella about the later's upbringing. Bella reveals some hardships from her childhood, things she's never told anyone even Edward. Through this conversation, Rosalie begins to understand that Renée was negligent. Rose also gets a better understanding of Bella and of why Bella can be okay with not having children. Because Bella spent most of her life being forced to be a parent to herself and to her mother.

The conversation is the start to of new friendship between Rosalie and Bella. The time they spent together is filled with small talk. Rosalie shows Bella some mechanical stuff. Rose also talks to Bella about what the later's life might be like if not for superior interference. Bella talks of her original plans to be come a teacher. At some some point the come across the topic that's always divided them. Bella becoming a vampire.

Rosalie puts emphasis on the points she's made before. Her desire to grow old and have children. Her regrets of a human life unlived. Bella expresses her desire for a family, but not the kind that Rose describes wanting for herself. Bella wants a mom that can actually take care of her and put Bella's need before her own. She wants a dad with more emotional depth than the length of a casted fishing line. Bella wants siblings that are also her friends. People that she can lean on and come to for advice. She wants to be in a family where she is responsible because she can be, not because she has to be. Bella also points out the practicality of her becoming a vampire. What with all the danger she finds herself in. And the looming threat of the Volturi that puts them all in danger.

After that conversation, Rosalie begins to rethink her vote. She still thinks being a vampire is the wrong choice, but maybe it's not the wrong choice for Bella. Rosalie understands Bella better now. She re-evaluates her reasons for being against Bella's transformation. Rose realizes that her reasons are based on her own desires and regrets and not on Bella's. She starts trying to see the situation from Bella's perspective.

Along the way, Rosalie begins to see Bella in a new light. She sees Bella's kindness and unique humor. And the more she gets to know Bella, the more she starts to fall for her. Which causes problems because Rose is with Emmett and Bella is with Edward. In private, Rosalie asks Emmett if he's happy. They have an important conversation about their relationship.

Meanwhile Bella, unaware of Rose's feelings and convo with Emmett, is thinking about her own relationship with Edward. She thinks on one of there biggest problems. Her rejection of his marriage proposal. Through self-reflection, Bella realizes that she's worried about Edward's commitment. She wants to be with Edward for eternity, literally, and she views marriage as something temporary due to her parents very short lived marriage. And even her maternal grandparents divorce. Edward as been adamantly against Bella being a vampire sense the start of their relationship. How can Bella commit to marriage when Edward, in Bella's perspective, doesn't seem to want forever with her? After all, he's left her before. He's promised to never leave her, but he made that promise in the hospital in Phoenix. It's a promise he's already broken.

Two nights before the newborn battle, Bella brings up her revelations with Edward. He doesn't seem to understand her and proposes with Elizabeth's ring. Bella turns down the proposal again and breaks up with Edward. The day of the battle comes and Edward fights Victoria and Riley. After the fight is over and won, Edward retreats from the campsite. Leaving Bella alone. Again. Rosalie seeks out Bella, carries her down the mountain and brings her home. She fills Bella in on what happened with the newborns. Bella in turn tells Rose of her break up with Edward and how he left her stranded in the mountains.

Bella still intends to be a vampire. Alice confirms this when she says that her visions of Bella being a vampire and a member of the family have not changed. Though Bella's future as Edward's mate has become extremely blurry. Edward contacts Carlisle to let him know that he's staying with their cousins in Denali for a while.

Charlie is worried that Bella will fall into her depressed state, but she's much better this time around. Mostly due to Rosalie's presence in her life. Rose spends much more time with Bella, which doesn't go unnoticed by Emmett. He may be a himbo, but he sees more than people think. Emmett sees the way Rosalie looks at Bella. It's the way she looks at him, but different, more intense.

If you love someone, set them free. Emmett decides to break up with Rosalie. They have a long conversation about this. Rose does admits her love for Bella, but has know idea if Bella feels the same way. Emmett loves Rosalie and wants her to be happy even if it's not with him. He thinks she'll regret it if she doesn't give it a real chance with Bella. Rose and Bella are both important to him in different ways and he wants them both to be happy.

One night at Bella's house Rosalie comes over while Charlie is working the night shift. Conversation is easy for the girls at this point and silence is comfortable. Rosalie finds herself looking at Bella constantly and finding excuses to be close to her. Which isn't difficult because Bella is very comfortable curled up against Rose as they watch a movie on the couch. Rose can't take her eyes of Bella's face. She studies the human intently, especially her lips. Rosalie very much wants to kiss Bella. Bella, more observant than given credit for, looks up to meet Rose's eyes. No words are spoken. Like magnets their lips are drawn to each other. Before they touch, Rosalie asks in a whisper "Can I kiss you?" To which Bella replies "Yes." Finally, their lips meets. Moving slowly and softly against each other. Rose has far more confidence in her control than Edward did, but she does not want to frighten Bella. So ever so slowly she deepens the kiss by tracing her tongue along Bella's lip. Bella gasps, letting in some much needed air, before kissing Rosalie again.

Rosalie and Bella's friendship during Breaking Dawn >>>>

[thefantasticreader]

Accidents happen (Alice Cullen x reader)

Summary: Alice has a vision of her best friend (You:Y/n) Getting hurt by a vamp. Instead of telling you she keeps you occupied through the whole day making sure it doesn't happen. But when the vision comes true it troubles her what she finds on the other side.

Warnings: Angst, Fluff at the end, blood, cursing

F/N means friends name, Y/H/C means your hair color, Y/E/C means your eye color, Y/F/F means your favorite food

Y/n had no clue why her best friend was all over her today, two days ago she was avoiding her with all her might, and now this? She was so confused and even more confused when her friend suggested she stay over at her house for the night. "Alice you know I can't, I promised F/N that I'd stay with her tonight. You know how hard it is for her right now Alice, I need to go see her. I'm sorry I'll stay over this weekend." She shook her head fiercely. "Y/n! You have to stay tonight! I need you to stay over tonight!" Y/n groaned but nodded.

"Fine! FINE! I'll just have to go home to get my stuff." Alice shook her head. "NO! I mean, no, I'll let you borrow some stuff, or steal it, you can have it." you looked at her with wide eyes. "Alice what's going on? Why are you being like this?" you questioned the poor girl. She thought about telling you about her vision, of the vision she had of you falling into a bookshelf and getting hurt from an arm pulling you. She hadn't seen who it was or what they had been doing before that, just that you'd be badly injured and need a lot of stitches, and as your best friend she was not about to let that happen to you.

She shook her head, "I just, I need a friend." Alice was pulled aside by her mate as he had overheard the conversation. "Darlin, what's going on? Why are you so upset?"

You couldn't hear what was said but you just saw her mate whom you knew as Jasper nod firmly. "I'll see you later Y/n, enjoy your time with Alice tonight." You looked at him questionably but shrugged it off as you felt at ease again for some reason.

By the time school had ended you realized you had spent the whole day with Alice and her siblings. You were never popular until Alice met you the first day of sophomore year, she had sprinted over practically jumping for joy. She introduced herself, and began talking to you as if she had known you for her whole life, which made it a bit easier as you were a bit shy and you fell into a light and airy conversation with her.

She introduced you to the other's not long after that, and when you found out what she was after a party she had avoided you for weeks. Until you had mustered enough courage to drive to her place and confront her, saying you still wanted to be friends with her, which resulted in the amazing friendship you two had.

"Alice, I really need to go eat my lunch, and I promised Nikki I would sit with her." she clung onto your upper arm and tugged you closer to her table. "You can tomorrow, Come on." it wasn't gonna kill her to let go right?

You shot Nikki a soft 'I'm sorry' look and walked over with Alice to her table. You ate most of your food and watched the other's stare at you and pick at the food in front of them. Not a lot of people got to sit with them, much less anyone besides the siblings sat at that table.

At one point you had thought you had heard Alice whisper to Rosalie how you were gonna get hurt and she wanted to make sure it wouldn't happen. Rose just nodded and eyed you gently, at least she didn't stare at you like she did to Bella. Poor girl got death stares from Rose for no reason.

When the time came you made your way to the Cullens house and was greeted by a happy and bubbly Esme who was just as elated to have you over. You had always thought of her as another mother in your life, and Carlisle a father. "Welcome Y/n, thank you for coming." You nodded at her words "Thank you for having me, Alice must be upstairs waiting on me?" She nodded and chuckled a little.

You met Alice in her room as the tv was going, Jasper walked out as soon as you were in the room. "Where is he going?" you asked as you were tugged down onto the bed. "To get the nail polish, I thought that we could paint each other's nails and just watch movies and gossip!" She seemed to be hiding something but her smile said otherwise.

After the second movie and the second coat of bright blue paint was done you looked at the girl beside you as she sat there watching you intently. "Seriously Alice what is going on?" You began as she frowned a little, "What do you mean?" you sighed. "You've been attached to me like you're going to die without me!" The anger now boiling in your system. "I mean I missed going to see my friend for you! You wouldn't let me see Nikki at lunch!? YOU'VE BEEN ATTACHED TO MY HIP THE ENTIRE DAY! YOU EVEN WENT TO HISTORY WITH ME EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T HAVE THAT PERIOD TOGETHER!" You yelled at her.

The sound of tiny yips were heard from the girl as she tried to calm you down. "Y/n! I'M SORRY! I didn't mean to make you upset!" The girl never really raised her voice, so it wasn't a surprise when the gentle voice came from her. "I'm going home, I need to go see my friend, you're clearly fine alone and you have Jasper and the others to help. As much as I want to help Alice this whole vampire thing is new to me and I don't know what you want me to do to help! I'm leaving, I'll see you at school tomorrow."

Grabbing your coat and pulling it on you made your way to the door. "Y/N! WAIT!" She reached over and grabbed the edge of your sleeve as you went to slide it on. However she underestimated her strength because she pulled the whole sweater off and you went tumbling forward. Hitting the glass bookcase in front of you, you hit the ground with a thud. Looking up at the shocked face in front of you, you knew if Alice could cry she would be sobbing right now. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." She muttered as she left the room dropping the jacket. The other's were already on the scene as Carlisle held your bleeding arm, "Jasper go check on Alice," he said as he helped you to your feet.

Jasper nodded and him and Rose left the room to go make sure their sibling was ok. You felt guilty immediately, this is what she was trying to prevent from happening and you went at her and it ended with her vision happening, you felt really bad. Carlisle took you to his office and began cleaning the wounds with some alcohol wipes before giving you some shots to numb the wounds and stitching them up. It was a pretty long process as there were multiple little shards that needed to be removed before he could stitch the larger area.

After around an hour of a rotation between shots, cleaning, and stitching you were finally wrapped in a thick gauze bandage on your arm and on your right leg where you landed on the glass.

You made your way to Alice's room where you hoped she would be, sure enough she was sitting on the edge of the bed fiddling with the necklace around her neck. Clearing your throat you made it aware you were there, she turned to you with wide eyes at your scraggly nature and gauze wrappings. "I'm so SO SORRY!" She cried out as she hurried to your side. "No! I'm sorry, I should have just let it go, I'm sorry, it shouldn't have gone this way." You said as she gave you a quick hug. "You ok?" She asked looking to the gauze. "Yeah, yeah Carlisle said it'll need some time to heal but I'll be alright." she hugged you again. "What do you say we finish the movie?" You asked as she laughed and nodded.

I've been binge-watching the BBC Ghosts series and it reminds me a lot of what I liked about the concept of the Cullens (not necessarily the execution because they are side characters in a romance so didn't really get to the chance to shine). The gist of it is that there are all these ghosts who died in or around the same old manor house from different time periods who are sort of stuck together and form a kind of found family. Some of the ghosts even have specific 'powers.' They can't normally be seen by humans or interact with objects, but one can affect electricity, another can move things a little, etc.

That's . . . that's not totally dissimilar to the Cullens. They're not ghosts, but they are "dead/undead" and from different enough time periods that without them being immortal/frozen in time they wouldn't have ended up all together in this way. The younger ones are close in age chronologically, but the vampirism angle and life experience made them different. They're obviously less 'stuck' than the ghosts because they can leave (as Edward did, and Rosalie and Emmett sometimes do to live as a married couple), and travel, and humans can see and communicate with them. But that basic idea of people from different time periods--and in the Cullens' case, different geographical areas, too, although somewhat US-centric--coming together, bringing all that baggage and somehow forming a family anyway? That's the Good Stuff.

I love this trope. Whether it's a group of people in a work place, or the crew of a spaceship, or a coven of vampires, survivors of some apocalypse, or a house full of ghosts, people thrown together from different backgrounds and forming bonds of friendship and even family despite their wildly different perspectives is just the best.

Just wish we got more of it in canon. And, again, I get it. It's a Romance. It's Bella's story. But it has so many more side characters than a romance needs and I think that's part of why it's so ripe for fanfic and headcanons.
