-What do you mean someone is after Bella?! - I was freaking out pacing back and forth in the hotel room we were staying on.

Rosalie had just got off the phone, while in the call she was talking so fast and low that I could only tell she was talking because her lips were a blur. After she was done talking to Maggie the first thing that she had told me is that a vampire tracker was after Bella.

-My family was playing baseball and Edward invited Bella to come- she took my hands in hers and pulled me to sit with her on the bed, rubbing her hands up and down my arms trying to comfort me but I was starting to hyperventilate -Mid game three nomads came in, the ones that I told you were lurking around, the leader of the coven took a sniff of Bella's scent and he decided to hunt her down, Edward read his mind and reacted to protect her but instead of backing off, James got more obsessed with your sister-

I was trying really hard to keep my breath steady but I was failing miserably. It was also really hard to concentrate on what Rosalie was trying to explain to me.

-Bella's scent? - I frowned, not getting how this was such an important detail about this particular issue.

It then came to me that Rosalie had never mentioned a thing about my scent, even if she fed off animals and not human blood, I was like a steak walking around her constantly, did it bother her?

-Everybody has its own unique scent, some humans have stronger scents than others, Bella's is particular strong- she tried to explain to me giving me a worried look- Your scent is also strong but not as much compared to your sister's-

-Does it hurt you? - I gasped realizing that I was constantly putting Rosalie thru pain -Am I a constant temptation? -

-No- she quickly shook her head- Your scent is marvelous, like sandalwood and lavender, but still I have a really strong resistance to blood, I have never tasted human blood-

-I didn't realize... -I tried to keep the tears rimming in my eyes at bay, this was just too much. I was such an idiot.

-Soff please- Rosalie hugged me, she sounded a little desperate to make me feel better- Really, it doesn't bother me-

-Is my sister gonna be okay? - I finally sobbed in her shoulder not being able to hold myself together any longer - Where is she? -

-Calm down- Rosalie instructed me, she disappear for just a second before appearing again this time with my inhaler in her hands, I shook my head no I didn't need it just yet - She left with Jasper and Alice to Phoenix, they are hiding her in a hotel; Esme is back in Forks protecting your father while Maggie, Edward, Emmett and Carlisle are trying to distract the tracker by leading him in the other direction-

-Wait, how did Charlie let Bella go with Jasper and Alice? - I asked confused, Charlie will never let either of us leave that suddenly.

-She deceived him- Rosalie grimaced - She said something about not wanting to get stuck in a town like Forks and moving back with Renee, Charlie thinks she broke up with Edward and she took her truck to drive all the way to Phoenix to wait for your mother to come back-

I gaped, Bella did what?

-Oh my god- I covered my face with my hands mortified - Charlie must be heartbroken; we have to go back to Forks-

-No- Rosalie growled, I gasped. Her eyes were black and her lip was slightly curved in a snarl, she realized how scared I was and she took a huge breath to recompose herself -I'm sorry, is just that James and Victoria don't know about you just yet, even if they go by your house and pick up your scent it is not as strong as it is in person, but if you go back they could get you as well, we have to stay away until they find James and kill him-
