Midnight Sun AU, EPOV. "Bella, you have to go to Florida with your mother." I spoke slowly, softly, letting the words sink in. I prepared myself for her rebuttal, for her distress. But as always, her next words were the ones I was least prepared for. "I think you're right." Could a dead heart flatline again? It felt like mine just did.

Summary: Bella arrives in forks, completely different. Her mother and Phil, scared out of her wits when she went missing for a week, then showed up on her doorstep glittering like diamonds, pale and utterly beautiful. Charlie, good with weird, takes Bella Swan to forks where she will begin her life in a brand new way.

School teacher Bella sends a care package and letter to Army sergeant Edward, who is stationed in Afghanistan. They begin a relationship through letters, phone calls, and video chats. There's love, there's language, and there's adult situations, plus a strong, independent Bella and the Edward we all know and love.

A/U: What if Edward accepted Aro's offer to join the Volturi when he goes to them asking to be killed? What does this mean for Bella and the other Cullens? What does this mean for the Volturi? Try not to be intimidated by the length. I have done my best to keep the action moving!
