I WAS HAVING A BAD WEEK.

　　I knew that essentially¹ nothing had changed. Okay, so Victoria had not given up, but had I ever dreamedfor one moment that she had? Her reappearance had only confirmed what I’d already known. No reason forfresh panic.

　　In theory. Not panicking was easier said than done.

　　Graduation was only a few weeks away, but I wondered if it wasn’t a little foolish to sit around, weak andtasty, waiting for the next disaster. It seemed too dangerous to be human — just begging for trouble. Someonelike me shouldn’t be human. Someone with my luck ought to be a little less helpless.

　　But no one would listen to me.

　　Carlisle had said, “There are seven of us, Bella. And with Alice on our side, I don’t think Victoria’s goingto catch us off guard. I think it’s important, for Charlie’s sake, that we stick with the original plan.”

　　Esme had said, “We’d never allow anything to happen to you, sweetheart. You know that. Please don’tbe anxious.” And then she’d kissed my forehead.

　　Emmett had said, “I’m really glad Edward didn’t kill you. Everything’s so much more fun with youaround.”

　　Rosalie had glared at him.

　　Alice had rolled her eyes and said, “I’m offended. You’re not honestly worried about this, are you?”

　　“If it’s no big deal, then why did Edward drag me to Florida?” I’d demanded.

　　“Haven’t you noticed yet, Bella, that Edward is just the teeniest bit prone² to overreaction?”

　　Jasper had silently erased³ all the panic and tension in my body with his curious talent of controllingemotional atmospheres. I’d felt reassured⁴, and let them talk me out of my desperate pleading.

　　Of course, that calm had worn off as soon as Edward and I had walked out of the room.

　　So the consensus⁵ was that I was just supposed to forget that a deranged⁶ vampire⁷
