He never returned. I know I've been saying this a million times since last year, but I still can't believe he left! I thought he loved me. I guess he didn't care. I don't care anymore. I'm graduating tomorrow, leaving high school in the dust. Maybe I'll have better luck at Yale. My counselor says I need to give him up. That's what I'm going to do. I'll be better off.
One Year Later…..
"Hey Iz!" A voice behind me yelled, "Wanna go out tonight? There's this awesome party over at…." I roll my eyes. Nataleigh. I should have known. Since I started school here she's been after me to go to all of these parties with her. "No, Nat. I have homework to do. It's the middle of the semester, remember?" I reply. "But Bella! It's at the Cullen's! You have to come with me! It's going to be the biggest party of the semester!" Did she just say…….no, it's not possible. They left. No. I can't think about it. "Even more reason for me NOT to go. Don't you remember what I told you about WHY I have to go to a counselor?" I tell her. I'm even on medication because of that bastard! I do miss Alice though……"Okay. I'll go. But only on ONE condition." I finally reprieve my protest. "What's that Iz?" She asks curiously. " We need to find Alice."
Five Hours Later…..
"Bella? Is that you? You look so….different." She answers, "What will Ed…….." I cut her off, "Alice! Shut up! You need to cloud your thoughts! Please?" she hugs me, "Yay! Bella's back!" I scratch at my scalp awkwardly, "Actually, it's Isabella, Iz, or a very, VERY select few call me Bella now. But, we'll chat later. We need to catch up. I am coming to the Cullen's party tonight……and I kinda need something to wear…..got any Ideas?" Alice zones out for a second, "I have the perfect idea!"
A/N::Yup. I just left ya hangin. Kill me, threaten me, do whatever you will, but I plan to update once about every two weeks. REVIEW ME!
