Title: Not Quite The Same.
Summary: What if that shield that covered Bella was more? What if there was a reasonable answer to her questions? Well, there is. And it's not found while the Cullen's have their claws dug into her so deeply. The newborn battle over, Victoria burnt to ash, and Bella, she's fine, minus the reluctance to marry the vampire she loved. There is only so much one fragile human heart can take, and Bella's reached breaking point. New Moon/Age Of Ultron.
Pairings: Undecided.
Rating: M
Chapter Warnings: None
The house that resided in the small, almost nonexistent town in the state of Washington was silent. Almost too silent, no creaking footsteps on the second bottom step, no water dripping needlessly down the drain. Even the sound of breathing couldn't be heard, but what Bella Swan could hear, no one else could. It was the same line, on an endless cycle.
"This is the last time you'll ever see me." She could still feel the way his icy lips pressed into her forehead before he was gone. It was an endless stream, never ending, never leaving her in peace; it ached right down to her core. She was truly alone.
Months went by, everything he had said, she hadn't forgotten, everything he did was burnt into her brain. She wasn't angry, she wasn't scared. She was alone. Alice never returned her e-mails, her silence and her completely ignorant actions had pushed Jessica and Angela away.
October turned to November and November became December before that faded into January. She sat alone, she never ate, she never spoke unless spoken to by staff that worked at Forks High and that was it. That was her life.
It became as much that she didn't even flinch when Charlie raised his voice, threatening to send her back to her mothers, and Bella knew then and there that he was at his wits end and yet it still didn't break her out of her living hell.
It was the end of February before Charlie truly did something about it. She'd overheard him as he spoke from his room and hell, she knew where he was sending her.
"Laura, I don't know what to do? I'm not equipped for this." It was almost as if Charlie was ashamed to be calling his younger sister. Especially on the matter of his daughter, but he knew that even his ex wife was no expert at this, she'd never be able to break Bella from her funk. "Please you got to help me?"
Very few people knew where Laura lived, because of her husband, Charlie's brother in law, and he knew the reason for that as well, he was thankful to the man that joined his family for keeping her safe from what he was involved in.
"I know it's a lot to ask, especially with the new one coming shortly, and well, Clint's whole situation, hey—i watch the news." Charlies spoke, a somewhat amused huff leaving his lips at a small outburst from his sister. "Thank you Laura, truly, that means the world."
There was only one person in the world with a situation like her uncles and that was Clint Barton. She knew what he did almost daily; she knew of the Avengers, it was hard to miss it, splashed across the news stations, twitters in school and the like.
Bella knew there was no getting out of it. And that this was the last straw, she was leaving her home, Forks, for some countryside house that was half run down and a tractor that didn't work. She blinked a few times before she rolled to the side, sighing deeply.
"Bella?" it had been silent for a few moments, Charlie leaving his conversation with his usual goodbyes and moved through towards Bella's room. "I've made some arrangement for you to stay with Laura, get your mind off of things around here." He murmured, hoping for some reaction, but received none. "Cooper and Lila are there and little Nathaniel soon, maybe you can help out there?" he tried again. "I'll talk to the school, so you can finish out your school online?" he was searching for a reaction, anything to let him know that she was okay, that she would be okay, but alas, as usual, there was nothing. "Okay then." He gave up, leaving her in peace.
Dull eyes roamed the room from her spot on the bed as his footsteps silenced themselves as they left the floor and made themselves comfortable on the sofa. She was leaving, and she couldn't bring herself to care, he wasn't coming back. Not for her at least.
A/N: i decided to keep this relatively short to get a feel if people want more. So please, let me know, the sooner i know the sooner i'll smash out some chapters. i look forward to hearing from you all. - Maddie.
