Sensual Inamorata: Bella's Story
This series of outtakes is Bella's life before Edward (in my story Sensual Inamorata), everything about Demetri, Ethan, and her heartache.
GRAPHIC WARNING: These outtakes contain emotionally graphic material. Involves, but not limited to drug use, suicide, sex, violence, mature language, rape, and emotional turmoil. Also there is a section that involves the death of a child, it does not go into detail and is not graphic.
Important Note: These time lines may not line up perfectly with things that I have said in my story line, but it is most accurate this way. Sorry, I am not perfect and the math when writing didn't line up perfectly when I put it into words.
First Semester at NYU
August - December 2002
I stood before the brick building with my bags in my hands, a new world and new life before me. I was nervous and anxious, but it was all a dream come true. New York was way bigger then Forks, the people were way different and I loved it. I made my way to my dorm room to find out that I didn't have an assigned roommate yet, which was alright with me. I was an only child and didn't really care for the idea of having a roommate. Plus I could decorate the room any way I wanted. I covered the walls in racing posters and my favorite bands, plus tons of pictures of my parents and Jake. I missed home and them already, but I needed this experience. My father and I hadn't left things on good terms-he had his dreams and I had mine-, but I hoped one day he would understand. I had to do this for me. I had to find myself outside of the tiny town of classes were interesting and challenging, but I made my way through them. I called my parents twice a week, but dad seemed to never be around or he was busy. I called Jake almost every night and he always made me smile and laugh. I was getting really home sick since I hadn't made any friends, it seemed like everyone else in the dorm was buddied up with their roommate. Which made me wish that I had one. Right before Thanksgiving my father finally decided that he wanted to speak to me again, it was awkward and strained, but he was trying. I figured my mother had something to do with it when she started badgering me to come home for the holidays, I had planned on it, but I had some exams between Thanksgiving and Christmas break. So Jake flew in and spent Thanksgiving with me. We bought a bakery turkey and watched old movies, it was a great day. We flew back together once all my test were taken care of. The first few days home were tense, dad still wasn't happy about me leaving, but I did my best to show how happy I was to be at school. By the end of the trip he started to warm up to me and told me that as long as I stayed in touch and came home for the holidays he would go along with it. Also I had to do a few races this summer, because he didn't want me getting out of practice. I agreed excited, because I really did miss racing. I was such a happy go lucky girl with the whole world at my feet. I was stupid. I thought the world was a beautiful place that would always treat me right, I was so wrong.
