I couldn't take it anymore. All those months alone has finally gotten to me. I had to see her.
After Charlie had left, and once Bella was awake, I walked slowly up the driveway, then the stairs, to her doorstep. I thought about turning around and leaving. I had kept a promise to Bella that I would never bother her again. But I had made my decision.
I knocked softly on Bella's door, listening to her footsteps as she walked to answer it. As her steps got closer, I grew nervous. What if she never wanted to see me again? I was about to find out.
