It was a Sunday, I was at home with the rest of my family, except Edward who was with Bella at her place. Then I saw them both coming towards our house, Edward with an angry look on his face.

We all went to the living room to see what happened.

"What happened?" Edward demanded when they walked in. It should've been us to ask him that question. He was looking at Alice waiting for a response.

His hands were clenched, and he glared at Alice, who had her arms crossed.

"I have no idea. I didn't see anything." she answered.

"How is that possible?" He asked her. He was still angry with her.

"Edward." Bella spoke with a quiet voice.

"It's not an exact science, Edward." Carlisle interrupted in a calming voice.

"He was in her room, Alice. He could have still been there — waiting for her."

"I would have seen that." Alice said.

"Edward, you know very well that her gift is not always accurate, as we have seen around werewolves." I told him trying to make him stop attacking Alice.

He ignored me.

"Really? You're sure?"

"You've already got me watching the Volturis' decisions, watching for Victoria's return, watching Bella's every step. You want to add another? Do I just have to watch Charlie, or Bella's room, or the house, or the whole street, too? Edward, if I try to do too much, things are going to start slipping through the cracks." Alice said.

"It looks like they already are." he snapped. When he was stubborn he was the most unbearable person in the world.

"She was never in any danger. There was nothing to see." I tried defending Alice.

"If you're watching Italy, why didn't you see them send —"

"I don't think it's them. I would have seen that."

"Who else would leave Charlie alive?"

"I don't know."

"Helpful."

"Enough, Edward!" I said, he was already crossing the line.

Everyone was watching what was going on, Edward, Alice and I were always very close, but when we fought...

"Since you haven't been of much use yet, Violet, who knows, maybe we'll try your cards?" he said, in a more angry tone than before.

I was shocked by his words. Much use? Does he think I work for him now? Apparently I wasn't the only one who was surprised by what he said, everyone was.

"Even if I want to be of 'use', Edward, my cards will work about as well as Alice's visions around werewolves." I said coldly.

"Stop it, Edward." Bella whispered to him, making him stop whatever he was going to say.

"You're right, Bella. I'm sorry." He looked at Alice and me. "Forgive me, Violet and Alice. I shouldn't be taking this out on you. That was inexcusable."

"We understand." she answered for us both. "I'm not happy about it, either."

"Okay, let's look at this logically. What are the possibilities?" he asked.

While everyone was paying attention and in the vicinity of the couches in the living room, Rose was standing with her back facing the window. Bella went to sit next to Esme, who slipped an arm behind Bella to hug her. I was sitting on the other side of Esme. Carlisle, Alice and Edward were on the other couch.
