Wow, I can't believe it. Today is the day. January 18th. It was exactly one year ago today that Edward and I first saw each other. I am so excited. I had gotten Edward the absolute perfect present!
I opened my eyes to greet this fabulous day and was surprised that Edward wasn't here. How odd. Maybe he was getting my present. Of course, that's why he's not here. If he knows what's good for him, he better not have spent a dime.
I had my human moment, I even took the time to blow dry my hair so it looked just perfect for Edward. I went back to my room and put on the blue blouse I knew he loved so much. I got in my old red truck and was off to the Cullen house.
It felt so right to drive through the thick mass of trees to get to the Cullen mansion. As I gazed in wonder once again, I wondered what I did to deserve such an amazing family. Such an amazing boyfriend. I pulled into the huge meadow that was the Cullen drive and stepped outside present in hand.
That's when I saw it.
It was a shiny, red sports car and it looked extremely fast. Every surface of it shined. Jasper and Emmett stood behind Edward gawking at it. Edward was explaining to them every detail about this car. He kept referring to it as either "My new car," or "My new baby,"
I knew he was in car mode, but this day was supposed to be about us, so I walked up to him. He didn't even notice me. I tripped over something on the way and expected his cold arms to catch me. They didn't.
"Edward," I said, love and adoration lacing my voice.
"Hold on, Bella," he said absentmindedly.
He stood there for a few more minutes with his brother's gawking over the dumb car. I was starting to get very annoyed he was doing this on our anniversary.
"Edward," I said with a little more emphasis.
"Not now, Bella!" he said. His voice sounded almost annoyed.
The anger spilled over. I couldn't believe it.
He had forgotten our anniversary.
I walked a few feet away and picked up a big rock. I turned around and threw it through the windshield with as much force as I could muster. The sound of shattering glass filled my ears. Now he looked at me.
"Bella, what the hell was that for!" Edward said. He actually yelled at me. He had never yelled at me before. I couldn't stop the tears from poring over. I placed this present in his cool hand.
"What the hell is this," he asked, the anger not leaving his voice. I couldn't take it anymore. I broke down and started sobbing.
I could barely get the words out. "Turn it over," I gasped
He did then read the words aloud. "From Bella, To Edward, Happy Anniversary," he slowed when he got to the end. He looked shocked.
"Oh, Bella, I'm s-" but I cut him off.
The tears were pouring now and they couldn't be stopped. "It's okay; you obviously want to spend time with your new car. I'm sorry I messed it up. Goodbye, Edward." He tried to grab my hand, but I shook it off. I ran for my truck and sped away, barely controlling the sobs. When I got home, I ran to my room, locked the door, and then slammed the window shut. I just continued to cry.
