                The house came into sight through the trees. I smiled to myself, home. I jumped out of the way as Jasper and Emmett leapt out of the trees to either side of me. I let out a laugh.

                “You think you can beat me?” I taunted, agilely side-stepping Emmett as he tried to tackle me.

                “Are you betting against Alice?” Jasper said in a quiet, deadly voice. I just smirked and darted around him to tackle him to the ground. He ran out or my ranger and broadcasted feelings of fear to me. I tried to ignore the, conjuring Bella’s face in my mind. I heard Emmett’s thoughts and jumped out of the way, but Jasper was ready and tackled me to the ground. This seemed far to prepared, obviously Jasper had formulated a game plan. My mind went through the possible ways to beat them as I wrestled out of Jasper’s hold. Finally, I heard the plan in Jasper’s head although he’d been trying to conceal it. I grinned, flashing my teeth, and darted away from them. We circled each other.

                “What’s the matter Em? Scared?” I taunted like a child. He growled at me. “Don’t think you can beat me?” He started towards me. Jasper held him back. I continued to taunt him until he could no longer restrain himself he lunged forward; ignoring the plan that Jasper had laid out for them. I lunged forward and tackled him. My teeth had a clear path to his neck which meant he was out of the running. He slumped sullenly away to watch. Now I just had to tackle Jasper, but while I was deciding what to do, Jasper tackled me. I had lost. We got up good naturedly.

                “Good to have you back.” I told him, smiling. I felt just like old times. Jasper rounded on Emmett, glaring.

                “You can never stick to a plan can you?”

                “It’s not my fault.” Emmett protested. I laughed. Jasper and Emmett joined in. We ran the rest of the way home. Jasper went to sit with Alice in the living room. I followed him. Rosalie was sitting on the couch. Emmett sulked over to her and sat on the floor so that this head as in her lap, like a sad puppy. She stroked his head idly. I smiled. The world was back to normal.

                “Edward Anthony Mason Cullen.” Esme said. I winced. She sounded angry.

                “Esme…”I said cautiously. I turned to see her standing with Carlisle in the doorway. She studied Jasper and Emmett. Finding them unharmed, she appraised me for a moment.

                “What were you thinking?” She said finally. I just shook my head.

                “Sorry, Mom.” She smiled and hugged me. “Carlisle, can I talk to you for a minute?”

                “Of course.” He gestured for me to precede him to his study.
