I bit my lip as the cold rain stung my face and whipped my hair. Suddenly I regretted not accepting Charlie's offer. Odd as it was, I was never one for cold. I hugged my self tighter trying desperately to get warmer. The dirt crunched beneath my feet , a sound I would never get used to , even though Forks had changed me greatly. I felt guilt as I wished he was here with me , I could remember his smile, my smile. I was glad Edward couldn't hear my thoughts , I didn't want to hurt him anymore. For right now , I wishing for the wrong person. But nothing had changed , I couldn't be with Jacob , it was impossible, but not for the fact that he was a werewolf. But I would not , could not live without Edward. My mood changed dramatically as anger roared inside me. Anger at Jacob , for being so childish. Maybe I should just leave , the pack would find him , heck they probably already did. But Jacob's Bella held me back tied to Forks. Unbelievably I was sad to leave. The town I once detested was now my home , and it always would be. I wanted to be with Edward forever, but I couldn't leave Jacob behind. I angrily brushed my tears away. Just moments ago , when Billy came to out door to report that to charlie that Jake had been missing for two weeks, all I could think of was him. All worries of Edward and the wedding disappeared. I remembered the only word I could say , "Why?". Billy turned his gaze away from me and stared intensely at Edward. His hand reached into his pocket and he dropped an envelope in front of me. I recognized it as the wedding invitations ,Alice had picked out ,right away.
I considered turning back , to apologize to Edward for storming away. I was surprised I had not yet heard another pair of footsteps behind me indicating he had come after me. I hope he would understand I wasn't mad at him. After all it wasn't his fault, so I thought. I made up my mind and turned around to walk the other way. I stared down the long road and realised I had absolutely no idea where I was . In my anger and confusion I had ran away in who knows what direction. Great. I let out a long sigh and started down the unknown road. Snap. I stopped breathing and turned toward he side of the road. I stared intensely into the green , dense forest searching for blazing red hair , even though I knew it was impossible , the fear was still hidden inside me. A large pale figure appeared for the forest. His snow white skin standing out against the green background. He moved faster and more graceful then possible. His shirt clung to his chest and his bronze hair fell slightly over his eyes. Over all , he was perfect. Before I could blink I was in his arms. Unlike Jacob, Edward held me gently. "Thank god you're okay." he said pulling me back to look over me.
"Edward I'm so sorry." I cried, pulling myself back into his arms. But to my disappointment he grabbed me once more and pulled me away so he could read my face.
" Sorry for what? " he asked puzzled . " I'm the one who should be apologizing Bella."
" But I walked out on you and Charlie. " I argued. Edward tilted his head .
" You mean your not mad at me?" he said.
I frowned " No." His eyebrows pulled together with confusion.
"But you know I-"
"Yes." I replied truthfully.
"You should be mad . Any normal person would be." He teased.
I was shocked. " Edward , you didn't know he was going to do this , its not your fault." I reached up my hand to his face to gently stroke his cheek. He looked unconvinced.
"I'll make it up to you Bella. I promise we'll find him." With those words he pulled me into his arms and started back to Charlie's house.
