"Bella, are you home?" I heard James call from the hallway.
Yes, where would I be?
Me and James have been a couple since 2 years back now. I was madly in love with him when he asked me out for the first time. Who wasn't? Sandy blonde hair, baby blue eyes, perfect body? Well you tell me.
My big brother, Emmett, didn't like him at all. First time I brought him home, to introduce him to my father, Charlie, well let's just say that didn't work out to well. Emmett told Charlie about James and his past. I admit it, James was the popular guy, who slept with every girl he met. With that said, he didn't have a great past and when Charlie got to know that, he was pissed. James didn't even get to get in the house.
And when I told them about me moving in with James, Charlie told me to never talk to him again. I was a disaster, I already lost my mother, Renee. She died when I was 9, and Emmett 12. And to lose your father too, I was a mess. Emmett told me everything would be fine, but look how it is today.
I never spoke to my father since the day I moved in with James, two years ago. Emmett and I lost contact too, when he moved to live with his new girlfriend, which I don't know the name of. I was lonley with James in a little cottage. And I wasn't happy at all.
I loved James, too much, but by the years, he has changed. He isn't the same man he used to be. The loving, sweet, funny guy who always took care of me. Now he's a alocoholic, who's always out drinking with his so called "buddies". And you never know what kind of mood he is in, when he get's home. And I'm scared. But without him, I wouldn't have a place to stay in, a roof over my head, or food, or anything. I would be alone.
I saw James walk in to the livingroom where I was watching TV. He looked at me like I was a stranger. Looks like I haven't answered his question, like I thought I had…
"Oh, hi James."
"Why didn't you answer my question?" Oh, looks like this is one of the days, he's angry.
"I'm sorry James, but I didn't hear you call me or anything.." Oh, way to go Bella, I'm sure he belived you!
"Yeah right. What's for dinner?" Dinner? Dinner? Oh shit, dinner! I forgott about that!
"Eh, it will be done in 15 minutes" I stormed out of the room, on my way to the kitchen. What would I make for dinner? I didn't even think about that!
***
After a very messy dinner, James took of to the bedroom to sleep.
I cleaned the dishes, and sat down on a chair. My mind took of to another place.
What if I never met James? Would my life be better? Would I be happier? Would I still speak to Charlie? And Emmett?
Release me
Release my body
I know it's wrong
So why am I with you now
I say release me
'Cause I'm not able to
Convince myself
That I'm better off without you
I heard my phone ringing. The caller ID said: Angela
Angela is my only friend around here. She has always been there for me, and are my shoulder to cry on.
I picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Bells! Angela here. Just wanted to ask you, if you would like to go to the café with me?"
"I don't know Ang.." I wasn't sure..
"Oh come on, Bella! It would be fun!" She sounded like she really wanted me to go..
"Okey, I'll go." I sighed
"Great! I'll pick you up in 20 minutes! See you, bye!"
"Sounds great, bye."
Hmm... time to get dressed.
***
Angela came 20 minutes later, just as she said. She was wearing jeans, a purple top and black flats.
I was wearing my black jeans leggings, a red T-shirt and my red converse.
We walked to the café just around the corner and sat down in a booth. We ordered something to drink and had a small talk. That's when I heard it.
Some soft music, piano music. With a song I reconized very, very well. Clair De Lune, a song my mother always played for me when I was a little.
Angela seemed to notice my absent and asked me
"You know this song?"
"Yeah, it's Clair De Lune, my mum always played it for me when I was little." I smiled at the flash back it gave me
"Honey, you have to go to bed." My loving mother told me, smiling.
"But mum, I don't want to go to bed! Not yet." I was stubborn.
"Sweetie, you have to, it's school tomorrow. Emmett has to go to bed too"
"What!? I have to go to bed too? It's only 9 o'clock!" Emmett called.
"Emmett! Shhhh…!" Dad said.
"Oh… Sorry"
"Sweetie, why don't you want to go to bed?" Mum tryied again.
"Because I want to spend my time with you. I feel like it's over soon" I was looking at mum.
"Oh, don't be silly, it won't be over! Your only 9 sweetie, and I promise you, I will be here for forever." She kissed my forehead.
"You promise? Like really, really promise?"
"I swear, Bella, I swear" She told me
"Okey, but can you play that song you always play for me?"
"Sure, let's go and put you in bed, so I can play it for you"
We walked upstairs and I took my place in my bed. Mum sat infront of the piano in my room and started playing. It was wonderfull.
"Sleep my angel, sleep, and I will see you tomorrow. I love you, don't you dare forget that."
I slowly took of to sleepytown.
The only thing was, she broke that promise that night. And I never saw her after. She died in a car crash, when she was on her way to the grocery store.
I felt my eyes water, and a little tear slowly rolling down my cheek.
"Aw, don't cry Bells." Angela said.
"I'm sorry, Ang. Won't happen again" I brushed the tears away with my sleeve.
"I'll be right back, just going to check myself in a mirror" I said
"Okey, take your time."
I stood up and started walking to the toilets. On my way there I saw the piano. And a guy was playing on it.
The guy was drop-dead gorgeous! Bronz hair - that stood up in all directions and a body worth dying for!
Just as I passed the piano he looked up at me, and I could see his eyes. They were emerald green. And it was the most gorgeous eyes I ever seen.
It felt like a sparke went threw me, when our eyes met. Did he feel it too?
He smiled a crooked smile, and I couldn't do anything but smile back, and of course - blush.
I went to the toilets, looked in the mirror and went back to the booth.
But I still couldn't stop thinking about that sparke.
"Are you okey?" Angela asked me, when I sat down.
"You look like your blushing?" She said with a smirk, but it sounded like a question.
"Yup, I'm fine, thanks for asking" I took a zip of my coffee and blushed crimson…
