I read the letter twice. Trying to distinguish the truth behind it, I tried to look for reasons to believe, but I couldn’t, I was deep into the story behind, I wanted to know more about Clemence and William. Are they for real? How true is their story? What are the chances to make them represent characters in a story? And what’s with William? How legendary is he? I felt there were missing parts.

“Bella!” my thoughts were interrupted by Alice’s whispering voice from the window “Are you awake?” and sneaked inside.
“Alice?”
“OW… ermm… did I wake you?”
“NO… I was awake!”
“Why are you crying?” she asked with concern
was I crying?
“is it something to do with Edward?” she asked
I tried to hide the letter, but realized she hasn’t seen it as it was beneath the blanket
“no! I had a bad dream!”
“Ah … Okay!”
“what’s the matter?” I inquired further
“Edward told me to pick you up when you’re awake, he said we’re going to … ermm..”
“yes?”
“England!”
“England?”
“yes! That’s what he said! He’s waiting for us there, he gave me the address, and …”
“what’s in England?” I interrupted her, although I might have an idea what would bring us there!
“ I don’t know!! ”she confessed “I just saw that he’s preparing a story, it’s awkward! But…”
“A story?”
“yup! That’s what he said!” she confirmed ”Carlisle and the rest are waiting for us there, I think they should be there by now!
“okay! Shall we leave now?”
“well… we can wait till the morning, if you want…”
“NO! we’ll leave now!” I interrupted “but what about Charlie? You know he’ll get furious if I just ..”
“Don’t worry! We’ll be back before he notices!” she winked.
She’s right, he’ll wake up and think I’m still asleep, he won’t come home till dinner, and I hope I can make it home by dinner!

“You know exactly where we’re going?” I asked Alice while we are on the airplane
“It’s somewhere in Derbyshire!”
Derbyshire?? Is there where the house of William hidden? But why it sounds more familiar?
“What’s the matter Bella? You look puzzled!” asked Alice, looking worried as if I’m hiding something. I thought of telling her about the letter, but decided not to for now!
“Nothing…I’m just tired!” I lied.
