Prologue

6 years. 6 years have passed since I was last with my husband. Well now I guess he's not my husband. He's my ex- husband. We were perfect for each other. Soul mates. Well at least I thought we were.

We had married young. I was 18 and he was 20. Childhood sweethearts too. When I met him, even at 3, I knew he was someone I'd have in my life forever. Our parents knew it too. They were planning our wedding even when we could barely walk. I guess we were all wrong.

Chapter 1:

"Andrew?" I asked my boyfriend.

"Yeah?" he called from down the hall. We shared an apartment in downtown Miami, Florida. We had gotten together about 6 months ago. One of our friends introduced us 2 years ago.

"Can you order some take- out? It's too hot to cook." Cooking in 98 degree weather is not something I look forward to.

"Yeah! What do you want?" he called.

"Umm… Just get something Chinese. Pizza doesn't sound good," I said putting clothes in the washer.

"Kay!" he called again. I could hear him on the phone in the kitchen.

I walked into my room to fold clothes. I was almost done when my cell phone rang. Alice. My best friend in and my former husband's sister.

"Hello."

"Hello my best friend in the whole wide world!" she yelled.

"Inside voices Ali."

"Sorry Bella. So watcha doin'?"

"I am currently folding clothes and Andrew's ordering take- out," I answered.

"That sounds boring!" she whined. "So how is Andrew?"

"He's good. His job's going well."

"That's good. I miss you Bella. Remind me why you live across the country. Forks is no fun without you," she complained.

"I moved after the divorce Alice. I couldn't stay there anymore. Too many memories," I reminded her.

"Oh yeah! Sorry Bella. I just forget sometimes. It's hard to think that you're not here anymore."

"I know. Sometime mornings, I wake up thinking I'm back home. Then I look around and I'm not and my dreams are shattered," I said softly.

"Edward misses you too you know. So does the rest of the family and I'm sure Charlie does too," Alice said. I winced when she said his name. I could feel my throat closing up. I couldn't say anything.

"Bella? Bella? Are you still there? I'm sorry I didn't mean too. Talk to me. Come on say something!"

"It's okay," I gasped.

"I'm really sorry. Here why don't you talk to Rose? She wanted to talk to you anyway." Rosalie is Emmett's fiancée and Emmett is my former husband's brother.

"Hello Bella! Is Ali bothering you about coming home again?" Rose eventually answered.

"Yeah just a little bit."

"Just ignore her. She's just an annoying pixie." We both laughed.

"So Ali said you wanted to talk to me."

"Oh yeah! I was wondering when you're coming down for my wedding. I mean it is in three weeks and I can't do it without my maid of honor," Rose said.

"Yeah I was thinking of heading back this weekend. Andy, Jacob, and I are going surfing tomorrow and I was thinking of leaving the next day."

"Honestly Bella I can't picture you on a surf board."

"Hey! I've changed. I have tanner skin now. So it looks normal. My balance has improved and I'm actually pretty good at surfing," I defended myself.

"Ha! Okay then. Hey? What's your hair look like now?" she asked.

"Umm… It's shorter now. Like chin length. Oh! I have bangs now!"

"Sounds cute! Is it still curly?"

"Yeah. I love it!" I said.

"Aw! It sounds adorable! So how's your job as an editor going?" I was a book editor. I love my job. I get to read people's books before they are even on the shelves.

"It's wonderful! Right now I am editing a book by a new author. It's amazing!" I said.

"Well that's good!" Rose said.

"Do you mind if I bring Andy?" I asked.

"No! Not at all! I've been dying to meet him!' she squealed. "Tell me all about him! I want to know everything! Wait! Let me go get Alice! She'll want to hear this too!"

A/N: This is my first story hope you all love it!
