Chapter 1 Ultimatum

BPOV

It has been three months since he left, since they left me. Three months of feeling empty, just letting the days pass by. Every morning I wake up feeling exhausted but numb at the same time. Looking at myself in the mirror I saw the same thing every day no life, no spark just empty, doll brown eyes. I lost weight, haven't comb my hair for what seems like an eternity. I just didn't care anymore. Every morning and every night my mind would wonder off to the day he left me, alone in the woods completely heartbroken.

¨I don't love you anymore, you are not good enough for me.¨

¨Edward, please don't do this.¨ I sobbed

¨Goodbye Bella.¨ and just like that he ran off. I tried to follow him, I yelled his name and nothing. He left his heart and soul behind, buried deep within me. I snapped back to reality when I heard a knock,

¨Bella, I have to talk to you¨ Charlie said. Suspicious of this I put my robe on and let him in.

¨What is it dad? ¨

He walked around the room for a minute, trying to gather his thoughts. I looked down at my feet waiting for whatever to be said. I heard him take a deep breath and what I heard him say shocked me to my core.

¨I talked with your mother, Bella. We are worried and terrified of what's happened to you. A boy leaves you and you cut everything out, your friends, your family and yourself. You are doing all of this just because of some boy. Imagine when you leave this house and you deal with the world around you and it's so much for you, how are you going to handle yourself Bells? This situation has shown me you are not mature enough to handle conflict.¨

Each word was like a punch in the gut. I just sat there silent, tears streaming down my face. I didn't know what to say all I knew was that he was right, partly. He didn't know the whole story but I couldn't tell him. It was the secret I had to burry deep within me until the day I die.

¨Your mom and I made a decision together, you have two options¨ He took a deep breath ¨You move back to Florida with your mom¨ I was about to interrupt but he cut me off ¨or stay here but seek counseling. We are giving you a chance to choose Bells, please don't make us chose for you¨ and with that said he gave me one last sad look before going to work.

I wanted to scream, I wanted to tell him everything but what came out was a pathetic sob. Ugh! In my head all I did was scream and scream but my body didn't respond. I was still like a statue for what it felt like an eternity. I couldn't believe this! I know I asked for it, I've been mopping around, staying in my room, just acting like a zombie. Of course my parents will eventually get involve, I just thought they would let me be. Boy how wrong was I. Checking my watch I realize it was 6.30 a.m., with a deep breath, I stood up and started getting ready for school.

On my way, I thought about what Charlie said to me. I didn't want to move to Florida. I liked Forks, yeah it was cold and wet but I got used to it. This the place I feel in love, it means so much to me. What if they come back and I'm not here. I need to stay here! Also I like living with Charlie, he is a lot like me but for me to stay here I need counseling. Ugh! I can't tell a psychologist that my vampire ex-boyfriend dumped me and his vampire family left me without a single goodbye. Dammit! He will lock me up for good!

I need a plan. I need to change in order for me to stay here. I have to hang out with my friends, if I have any left, go to the movies, shopping ugh! maybe with Angela. I can call Jacob, stay out of the house, smile more, and talk with Charlie. I'll do anything to stay here, this way I can avoid counseling or moving with my mom.

That is the plan! Charlie wants to see a new me and his going to get it! I just hope I don't screw up.
