Bella gasped as she woke up in her empty bed, clutching the empty sheets.
"Edward?" She murmured in the darkness surrounding her bed.
"Edward?" She said more firmly.
He's not here… She thought sadly. He had promised to stay with her tonight. Just then she felt a pain in her stomach. She recognized the feeling… Cramps. She was on her period again. She grunted as she got out of bed and groaned when she saw a little blood stain where her body had been.
"Great…" She muttered sarcastically and balled up the sheets in her hand and put them in the hamper that she had in her room.
She walked to the bathroom before realizing she had forgot to buy tampons… Wonderful… She picked up her cell phone.
Who to call?
Edward?
… Alice?
Charlie?
She sighed and dialed Alice's number. No way was she having this conversation with a boy.
"Hello?" A male voice answered on the line.
"Jasper?" Bella guessed
"Bella? I'm sorry, Alice Is letting me borrow her phone… Mine got destroyed when Emmet thought it would be a good idea to see if it could withstand the blender. Blender 1 Phone 0."
Bella giggled a little at the thought "Oh. Okay, I just needed to talk to Alice... Sorry Jasper."
Jasper finally let his curiosity take over him. "What did you want to tell Alice? Perhaps I can pass the message?"
Bella blushed a little. "Oh… I just needed her to grab me something…"
She blushed deeper. "Girl things..."
Jasper finally got the gist of what she was saying. "Oh. Oh."
If it were possible, Bella would blush EVEN deeper. "Well, talk to you later Jasper." She didn't want it to get any MORE awkard, if that where possible.
Bella's cheeks burned a bright red as she hung up the phone. She would have to go get it herself.
Great… She changed clothes and stuffed some toilet paper in her underwear before walking out the door and jumping into her truck.
She drove to the small store and walked in. She quickly made her way to the women's products and grabbed some tampons. She began to walk toward the counter when she saw Carlisle picking up groceries. Carlisle noticed her despite her attempts to hide and walked up to her.
"Hello Bella." Carlisle greeted her very politely.
"Hi Carlisle." She suddenly realized she didn't have any money…
GREAT. Could this day get any worse?
"… Carlisle I hate to ask this of you, but I seemed to have forgotten my money at home… I will pay y-"She began and he cut her off.
"No no, Bella, you're family. You don't have to pay me back." Carlisle took out his wallet and swiftly took out a hundred dollar bill.
"No no, I think a 20 will suffice" Bella said blushing even deeper because of the situation she had gotten herself in.
"Bella, I insist." Bella sighed and took the money.
"Thank you Carlisle. I will pay you back." And with that she hurried off to the counter, paid for her tampons and drove home.
Most embarrassing day ever.
