"Bella! Bella can you hear me?" I faintly heard someone calling my name. I tried to open my eyes but when I did a bright light blinded me.

"Gah!" I gasped and squinted my eyes trying to find the person speaking to me.

"Oh my god Bella, are you alright?" I turned my head and saw Charlie, my dad, sitting in an ugly blue chair next to me. He looked scruffy and tired, like he hadn't eaten or slept for a few days. I observed the room and noted that I was in the hospital. My chest felt heavy and my head pounded. I touched the top of my head and winced, I guess I fell again. I may be really smart but when it comes to balancing I have the worst luck.

"My head kind of hurts but I don't think anything's broken." I tested my limbs as I said this. He sighed, relieved I'm sure, I am always getting hurt it seems.

"Bella hunny why were you in the woods? You hate hiking, you basically hate the outdoors."

"I was in the woods…?" And that's when it hit me. I shot straight up and glanced around the room frantically.

"Edward! Where is Edward dad? He's gone! Please tell me he's not gone!" I looked at my father who didn't say a word. He just stared at me until I cried. The man I loved was gone, he didn't want me anymore, and neither did his family. I cried in my father's arms for what seemed like the first time in my life.

Three Months Later

I wondered the Forks high school halls with my ear buds in. Now a days I don't even listen to music anymore, it reminded me to much of him, it was just an excuse not to talk to people. I sat at my usual table with Jessica, laying my head on my hand I toned out the people around me. The conversation between Jessica and Mike was boring to me. Where was he? Does he even miss me? I felt a twinge in my chest. I missed Edward so much, what was the point of living, of going on when the one person you loved disappeared.

"Bella! I'm so glad you sat with us today!" Angela smiled at me as she sat down next to me. Eric followed close behind her. The fact that those two started dating made me smile.

"I felt social today I guess"

"Well are you two going to the party tomorrow? Please say yes! It's been forever since you went out with us. You can bring Jacob! And some of his friends we met if it will make you feel better." Jessica pleaded with her eyes.

"Maybe" Angela said to Jessica and then turned to me "or we can stay at my house and watch movies" She finished under her breath. I smiled at her, she just understood me. I winked at her, accepting her proposal.

"Be there at 6!" She waved as she walked away, Erik following behind her. Well I guess it's time for another class. Entering my English classroom I noticed a rather unpleasant sight.

"Well hello beautiful! Will you look at this! You get to sit next to the king today!" Anthony smiled at me patting the chair next to him. I inwardly groaned. His obnoxious blonde hair swung into his black eyes. Okay they weren't completely black there was some brown somewhere in his soulless eyes, but to me, they are black. Him and his goon wannabes have been bugging me since HE left.

"Bella you know you totally want to sit next to me!" Angela shouted across the room while shoving Eric out of the seat next to her. "Sisters before misters" She winked at Eric while he just rolled his eyes smiling. Anthony was going to say something but Eric just gave him a look. God I love these two people so much. I blinked my eyelashes at Eric.

"My hero!" He rolled his eyes again. "No but really thanks guys; I didn't want to deal with that."

"Don't thank us yet Mike is my partner." He smiled evilly in my direction as Mike strolled into the classroom.

"Well shit. At least he isn't Anthony." We stopped talking when the teacher called attention. The rest of the school day went by rather fast, soon I found myself waving goodbye to Eric and Angela and returning to my beloved truck. I drove to the Ron's Super Market, which seemed to be the only super market in Forks, and jumped out of my truck. I stepped into the store and saw a flash of red, my heart started beating.
