Bella POV
"Happy Birthday Bella"
Wow, my eighteenth birthday seems so far away now. It's been almost 250 years since I last saw that piece of scum and his perfect family. Today would be my 268th birthday, and also one of the most depressing days of the year. Laying in my bed, that I can never sleep in, I am pulled into a memory from when I was human, when I was still whole.
FLASH BACK
The final bell rang through the grounds of Forks High telling students that the end of the school day has arrived. I gathered my Calculus books and left the classroom. It was my one class without Edward, and I hated it. I walked out of the warm classroom and into the cold rain. I was surprised not to see Edward by the door but I continued to my aging truck. Mike noticed Edward's absence to and quickly rushed to me.
"Hey Bells, do you have to work tonight?" He asked me, fully knowing my schedule, seeing as I worked at his parents shop.
"No Mike, I do not. This is my night off. Since Edward and I don't spend too much time together after school, we are going out for dinner." I lied to him, but I made sure that I put emphasis on the word Edward just so he would get my drift.
"Oh, alright. I guess..." Mike left towards his own car with his head down. I knew I had hurt him in a way. Mike and Jessica were in their post-breakup stage of their relationship and I didn't want to endanger my friendship with her because of Mike's actions.
I saw Edward standing beside my truck, leaning on the bed of it. I ran towards him, and knowing me, tripped on the flat black asphalt. A pair of white, strong arms caught me before I hit the ground and I saw a smile on the face of the man I loved.
"In a rush, are we?" he asked me, laughing silently.
"Well, someone wasn't at the door like usual, so I got worried." I stated.
"Bella, don't worry about me. I decided to wait by the truck today to speak with you." he spoke now with no humor. I was somewhat scared, but I wouldn't let him know it. "Shall I come over today?"
"Of course. I don't need to work, so meet me at my place. I just need to drop off the package at the post office. It's for my mother." I told him. He opened the door for me, and quickly snatched the parcel before I could say anything.
"I'll take it. Besides I bet I can deliver the package and still beat you to your home." He laughed and left for his Volvo.
I got into my truck, grumbling about the fact that he always managed to find a way to put down my vehicle. I like my truck, it had personality. I started it, and with a deafening roar, drove onto the highway, heading for home.
I drove into the driveway, seeing the Volvo parked where Charlie usually parks. It meant he was not going to stay. I turned off my truck, and sat thinking. Edward was going to head home after the chat. This isn't right!
Edward opened the door, and helped me out, grabbing my book bag with him. He disappeared from my side, only to return a moment later after putting my bag into the house. The rain had taken a momentary break.
I looked at him, waiting for him to speak. I analyzed his features, hoping for some clue as to what he was going to say to me. His face was calm, with no expression to give away something to me. But what scared me was that him eyes were hard and cold.
"Come for a walk with me," he suggested.
Since when does he decide to go for a walk? A walk doesn't sound bad, but it just seems wrong today. It is usually him, sneaking in my room (Charlie not knowing of course) and staying the night, to protect me. This is bad, this is very bad the voice in my head repeated. I am going paranoid.
We'd gone only a few steps into the trees when he stopped . Nice walk.
"Okay, let's talk," I said. I hoped that my fears would not come true.
"Bella, we're leaving," That's not bad, of course we had to leave when I was going to be changed. I didn't think it would be so soon, but if Edward was there, everything would be alright.
"Okay, I'll come with you"
"You can't , Bella. Where we're going... it's not the right place for you." What? He's lying. He must be.
"You are in the right place for me, Edward!" I told him, my voice not seeming like my own. It was quiet, the only noise was the wind going through the leaves. Edward stood before me, as cold as ever, deep in thought.
"I'm no good for you, Bella. I don't want you to come with me." He said. I felt my heart break. Edward... didn't want me to come. I felt like my dream was slowly becoming more of a nightmare. Please let this be a horrible dream.
"You... don't...want me?" I heard my voice break, but I wanted to stay strong.
"NO" The simple two letter word made my world break. I felt the tears trying to break through. He was leaving me. "I would ask one favor, though, if that's not too much" He continued.
"Anything," I vowed.
"Don't do anything reckless or stupid," he said.
"I will!" I would jump off a cliff to keep him with me, didn't he know that. He turned from me. He was going to leave.
"I will make you a promise in return," he said, "I promise that this is the last time you will see me. I won't come back. I won't put you through anything like this again. You can go on with your life without any more interference from me. It will be as if I never existed."
He than continued, "Don't worry. You're human –memory is no more that a sieve. Time heals all wounds for your kind." And with that he disappeared, and my world went dark.
End Flashback
But he didn't get it. I am a danger magnet. I was doomed for the life of a vampire. He was my soul mate. Was...
Cliffhanger, but the story just came out of my head! This is the fixed chapter for those who don't know what is going on! I promise to update with not so short chapters next time. Appreciate a review! THANKS ^_^
