Memories Never Fade... They Resurface
Prologue
.
"Sorry Edward. I really am sorry." I said tears forming in my eyes.
.
"It's okay Bella. I-I understand." Edward responded. A pained almost dead look, was on his beautiful face from all the pain my words and I were causing him, I couldn't believe that he was still forgiving me!
.
"It's not your fault Edward, you should know that…" I responded shaking, this was more difficult than planned. I couldn't believe I was actually doing this, Why was I causing both of use so much pain? … Oh that's right! Because this is the how it's supposed to be! I bitterly thought to myself.
.
"I can't do this Edward the pressure is too much, I need time… more time because I'm starting to feel like I'm going to blow up. I love you. Always remember that." I said taking his face in my hands, all the while shaking hard. "Promise me something."
.
"Anything" He said fiercely after a moment.
.
"If I don't deal with this soon, p-please, please promise to forget about me and move on." I said fiercely while looking into his eyes, my voice not shaking for the first time during our conversation.
.
"No!" He said fiercely, shocked at my request. "I won't do it Bella! I will always wait for you! I Promise! I love you too much to do that!
.
"No! Edward don't promise anything to me! Just promise that you will move on!" Knowing in the deepest part of my breaking heart that he most likely would, a single tear fell from the corner of my eye at the painful thought.
.
"No!" He said determined.
.
"Fine then, do whatever you want!" I said exasperated, I was still shaking. I would have to leave soon, or I wouldn't be able to leave him or his family. I knew that they could hear everything I was saying to him, even at the great distance we were from the house. They were going to hate me after this, I almost panicked, but I calmed down as fast as I could.
.
"Sorry about that… Bye Edward tell your family I said good-bye for me… please. With that I turned my back to him and everything he had ever offered me; Love, protection, happiness, and the rest of eternity with him. I was practically running to my truck, I turned it on quickly and turned around the way we had come. Leaving Edward standing there like the statue of a beautiful god in pain, a few moments later I saw a flash of white out of the corner of my eye, but when I turned to look, nothing was there but the ancient trees and coming darkness.

Chapter 1: The Returning
.
It has been five years since that painful day, and now I was parked in front of Charlie's house, he was the only reason I'd returned to Forks willingly, but it was only for two months. The two months would begin in about nine days, because first I would have to go to a business meeting, but I had come two days early to visit Charlie. And I really wouldn't be staying at Forks. Just near it, because I had a house about forty-five minutes out of town. Well … only if you wanted to take a paved road, if you didn't the journey would take 30 minutes. I had been able to commission my own house because life had been kind to me financially, which living the way I did was very good.
.
I wondered idly if Charlie was already expecting me. Well it was time to find out. With a sigh I got out of my car, and walked slowly –for me- to the door and knocked. After a few seconds Charlie opened the door. Many emotions crossed his face; surprise, curiosity, confusion and … um awe.
.
"How can I- I um… help you?" He asked, clearly at loss of words, and trying to be polite. I felt a bit sad, Charlie -my own father- didn't recognize me, but I couldn't blame him. After all I had changed a lot in the past few years, both physically and mentally. I was now beautiful; well that's what everyone told me, I really didn't care. Would anyone else not recognize me? I thought to myself.
.
"Recognize me?" He looked like he was trying to remember very hard. "It's me… Bella" I said after a minute.
.
"Bella!?" he asked astound. I only smiled.
.
"Hey, dad."
.
"Oh! Bella I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you. You've changed so much!" He pulled me then into a tight hug and I hugged him back just as fiercely, while trying not to hurt him.
.
"Missed you." He said happily, after letting go.
.
"Me, too dad." It started to rain then.
.
"Get inside Bells before you get wet." He reached for my hand and pulled me inside, and closed the door. I looked at my surroundings; nothing had changed since I left. "I thought you would have arrived in a few more hours."
.
"I decided to stop by early, and surprise you."
.
"Well you certainly did." I smiled smugly to myself.
.
"So how's life been for you without me?" I asked truly curious.
.
"It's been okay I guess, but life's a bit duller, and the food's not as good either." I laughed at the face he made at the end.
.
"If you want I could go by the store and buy something to make you lunch?" I asked him seriously.
.
"No don't waste your time on me, I'll order pizza or something instead."
.
"If that's what you want." I said sighing.
.
"Yes, it is." He shot back as he walked toward the phone.
...
1 hour later.
...
"So Bella, how have you been these past few years?" Charlie asked me when we were done eating, and washing the dishes.
.
"I've been okay." I said as calmly as possible, I didn't need him to get suspicious.
.
"Hmm… what have you dedicated most of your time to?" He asked serious.
.
"Work, college, work, and the kids at the orphanage back home." I responded suddenly nervous.
.
"And what is your job?" he asked suspicious.
.
"To locate, retrieve and dispose of unneeded objects." I cringed internally it was true… in a way.
.
"Hmm… I guess that okay." He said trying to sound uninterested, but failing miserably.
.
"Yes, actually it is. I get to travel all around the world in my job." I said, hoping that that would catch his attention and make him less suspicious. It worked.
.
"Really?" he asked unsure "Where exactly have you traveled?"
.
"Well I've gone to Italy…" -Once was not enough for me apparently- "…Greece, Egypt, England, Russia, Spain, Australia, Germany, and France. The cities there are beautiful. The coliseum in Rome was magnificent, and the view from the acropolis in Athens was amazing. I wish you could have seen it! Paris is very beautiful, especially at night with all those lights!" I babbled on about the places that I had gone, and some of the thing that had happened there. And soon he forgot all about is suspicions, he truly seemed excited about what I told him and I was glad.
...
2 hours later
...
"I was good to see you again dad." I told him getting up.
.
"Yes, it was very nice." he said pleasantly, probably still thinking about what I had told him.
.
"I'll be back tomorrow afternoon. And I'll make dinner too." I smiled.
.
"Okay." He said happily.
.
"Bye Dad."
.
"Bye Bells." He said as I bent down to kiss him on the check, because he was sitting on the couch, getting ready to watch I game I bet. I walked to the door got out and closed it. I quickly got inside my car. Turned it on and headed toward my house and away from my past….
... and I knew that I wasn't alone anymore.
