Prologue

I never thought this would ever happen. To be sitting on the floor, and having everything

I ever loved, ever cared for, gone. He was always there for me when we were younger,

And now its like I don't even know him anymore. The tears seemed to never stop. It has

Been five years since he moved away with his mother, but I couldn't seem to get over

Him. Why, why cant I? I was just my friend after all. Or was he?

Chapter one

It was just another Saturday that I spent alone. I was quite used to it by now. I haven't

Spent the weekend with anybody really since Edward and Alice moved away. They were

My best friends and my only ones really. I guess I wasn't really what you would call

'normal' since they left. I just started to shut people out. Afraid to let more people in, for

The possibility that they will end up leaving me too. So I now spend the majority of my

Time looking through old photos of Alice, Edward and i.

Flashback

"Ohh, come on Edward. Just grab the worm like this." I said as pinched the slimy

Creature in between my two fingers with just enough force to pick the creature up,

Without splitting in half, and let out a small giggle as I watched Edwards face transform

In to a mix of mock horror and real disgust.

"Right Bella, like I would ever touch that thing. Besides, I am way more mature

Than you."

Edward was two years older than me, I was even and he was nine. Our mothers were

Friends since high school, so we have known each other since birth.

"You are, are you? Right. And that's why you wont pick up a silly wittle worm." I

Made my voice sound all babyish for effect. That really pushed him over the edge.

"Okay, fine Bella. I will prove it to you that I am not a 'wittle baby' as you say it."

He tried not to but still made a face as he went to go pick up the worm. "EWWWWW,

GROSS. GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF!"

"I guess you pressed a little too hard." I could not help but burst out in laughter as

Edward freaked out. He ended up picking up the worm too hard, and the worm broke in

Half. One half of the worm landed in the grass, but the other half somehow made its way

To land on the bridge of Edwards nose.

"Gosh Edward, you are even more girly than Alice." I let out another snicker, as I

Picked the worm off of his nose and placed it nicely beside its other half.

End of flashback

It has now been nine years since that day, and I have only seen Edward twice since that

Day. Little did we know that that day would be the end of everything that we ever knew?

His mom got engaged, and moved away. And I only ever got to see them when they came

Back to see their dad. And that isn't very often, but tonight is new years, and I will finally

Get to see him again.

"Bella, they are here." My mom called from down stairs.

'okay Bella. This is it. It's just your friend, the one you have known since the

beginning of your existence. It's the same person. You can do this.' I gave my self a

mental pep talk while making my way down the stairs. I was only half way down the

staires when I herd new, unfimerliar voices.

"its good to see you renee. How are you?" my mother didn't have a chance to

answer the question before Alice butt in.

"where is Bella!?"

"now Alice, calm…" charlisle was cut off by one of Alice's famous squeals.

Fallowed by a very loud "BELLA!" just as I came into view. "ohh, Bella, I

missed you so very much. How are you? Gosh, you look really HOT! Wait, do you have

a boy friend?" same old Alice

"I missed you too Alice, I am good, thank you, and no silly."

"okay, well come on silly goose. Rase you upstairs!" I didn't even have time to

respond to that before she was pulling on my arm and already half way up the stairs. How

in the world did she do that. I was still hoping that Edward was still the same as he used

to be.

After a million of questions coming out of alices mouth before I could even think about

the answer, and new question was coming out of her mouth. She finally calmed a bit

down, enough to ask about Edward atleast.

"hey alice, so how is Edward. You pulled me up the stairs so fast that I didn't

even get a chance to see him."

"well see I wanted to talk to you about that…"
