LOST PIECES

Note

This whole book is based on alternate universe. I have no rights on the original stories. And all the rights belong to Stephanie Meyer for the Twilight Series. I am just using their characters and my imagination. And I also want to thank P A Lassiter for helping me get Edward's Point of View.

Chapter 1

Ending is just a beginning.

EDWARD POV

"I don't understand what you are saying, Rosalie."

A long pause, the length of a few human heartbeats.

"She's dead. Bella's dead, Edward."

The phone went dead. It took me a few seconds to realize that I'd shut the power off.

I sat in the dusty darkness for a long, frozen space. It was like time had ended. Like the universe had stopped.

Slowly, moving like an old man, I turned my phone back on and dialed the one number I'd promised myself I would never call again.

If it was her, I would hang up. If it was Charlie, I'd get the information I need through subterfuge. I'd prove Rosalie's sick little joke wrong, and then go back to my nothingness.

"Swan residence," answered a voice I'd never heard before.

"This is Dr. Carlisle Cullen," I said, perfectly imitating my father's voice. "May I please speak to Charlie?"

"He's not here," the voice responded. "Well, where is he then?" I demanded, getting impatient.

There was a short pause.

"He's at the funeral," the boy finally answered.

I shut the phone again.
