Five Years Gone By
Intro:
5 years gone by. And I still felt as empty and as cold headed as before. Since he left me to look for better distractions and fool some other girl's mind that her scent was better, I had ended up at rock bottom. The only reason I had 'survived' was through my best friend, Jacob. But now I feel other feelings coursing my veins, feelings of negativity and hatred. But love is a powerful thing which cannot be put out easily. Did I still care? Did I still love him? There's only one way to find out.
Chapter One
Bella
"Bells?" my dad, Charlie asked "How are you feeling today honey?" He looked concerned and fearful, the way he always looked when he first saw me every morning. "I'm fine dad, I don't feel any worse, I promise" I said as I walked down the stairs. "I'm gunna have a bite to eat then go to work." He cheered up then. He liked that my job was improving and my mood along with it. When I'd stumbled home the night……he broke up with me in the depth of the forest Dad had since been paranoid that I would be…messed up. Not right. Insane. But I had pulled through quite quickly and my mood along with it.
I ate my breakfast quickly and easily and put my plate in the dishwasher, a present from me to Charlie. He needed something to clean the dishes while I was away a lot. I said goodbye to Charlie, grabbed my bag and briefcase, out the door and walked down to the driveway. Jake was there already waiting for me. "Hey Bells!" He chorused when I descended the steps. "How are you?" He took my bags storing them safely in the boot.
"Hey Jake, I'm fine." I went over to him and gave him a hug. "He held me for a while then breathed into my hair "Want a lift again?" I laughed stepping out of the hug. "Hmmm" I said acting out a very hard decision. "If you wouldn't mind Jacob I would indeed need a lift to the office." He grinned showing his fantastic bright white teeth. "Then let's roll!" and he got into his car, A Volkswagen Rabbit as I grinned at his eagerness. My fingers were just about to touch the sliver handle when suddenly I paused. I was getting my increasingly frequent sense of déjà vu. Bella for god sake RELAX! Its been five years! Take a chill pill!
I looked around widely, starting to panic slightly. Jake had his radio on and was too busy to notice my moment of worry. I quickly got into the car and didn't look back at my house surroundings at all. Instead I was focusing on Jacob swinging his long musky smelling hair around his face and he danced to his favourite rock song. I started to laugh when he pretended to do a guitar solo on the song. He grinned again and backed out of my drive and off towards town. As we drove away from my house like we did every morning so far this week, I was glad to get away. Every morning I got that familiarity of my front garden and it freaked me out. I decided to relax and focus on the files I was meant to hand in today. Being an assistant for a highly respected news magazine in Forks was good pay and helped me not to think about ….him. I sighed and sank into my chair and watched the world go by out of the window.
