Bella's POV
"Surprise." No, no, no, no I told them I didn't want a good-bye party. Yet here it was. Shock was visibly formed on my face. I looked around and there was the huge chocolate cake with the words Good Luck written on it in red. I had spent five years here and I kept aging without it being shown on my face. I still looked eighteen. It was about time I moved on but I would miss my friends here. Working for the music agency had been fun but I don't think I was going to miss it. It had been my what fifteenth job in over the last hundred years. Moving on seemed right I don't think I look over twenty-eight.
"Isabella, come here and hug me." Martin had been my friend since I first arrived at the agency. He was taller than me by three inches and I think the only male who didn't want to bed me. Of course having acquired a taste for the average male will shy you away from females, which brought on a friendship. He was one of the few males in my new life that I had been able to open up too. He knew everything about me. Well not necessarily everything but close. I had talked to him about Edward and what he had done to me. The heartache I endured…as much as it pains me still endure.
"Well now, leaving the big apple doesn't seem to be affecting you at all." He let go of me and held my arm. The good thing about New York is that the pollution allows me to walk around during sunlight hours without being noticed. It forms sort of a protection cloud if you will.
"You know I'm going to miss you." I gave him my best smile and how did he repay me. Leaving me defenseless as groups of people all hugged me and said their good-byes. I was going to miss him. Martin could always make me smile whenever he noticed I was depressed. In return I always lured men in his direction. He enjoyed my company when a cute guy came into the picture.
After the small party we returned to work and the day went on like usual. Before I walked out the door a pair of hands stopped me.
"So pincushion where are you off to? You never did tell me." Martin asked curiosity dripping from his mouth with every word.
"Somewhere I haven't been in a while."
"Which is?" I didn't want to tell him I wanted to go back to Forks.
"Seattle." I lied.
"What's in Seattle?"
"A better job." That sounded like a good response.
"You mean to tell me your cheating on me." He placed his hand on his chest in a grand gesture to bring effect to his words.
"You have been a great boss and I'll miss you terribly. I just have a different future playing in my head for me."
"This future doesn't involve the music industry?"
"No. I'm sorry. I love to write and a publishing company gave me a job so I have decided to go." Another lie.
"Fine. Follow your dreams and leave me behind."
"Thanks." I teased.
He walked away and let me leave. I got in my car and noticed my eyes were losing their topaz color. Everything was packed at my house and I wasn't leaving until night so I decided to go hunt.
I had been able to get a deer. It didn't satisfy me completely but hey I would be driving back to Forks so I could stop at a couple of places along the way. I reached my apartment and everything was in boxes. The only thing that wasn't covered in cardboard was the furniture. I didn't want to keep it so I just left it for the next person who came along. I loaded everything in my car said good-bye to my tenant then drove off to Martin's apartment.
When I reached his apartment I was greeted with a hug and then shoved in.
"So what time are you leaving so I can now how many hours I have before I lose my babe magnet forever."
"Two."
"Let's go to a club." He said with a devilish twinkle in his eyes.
"No I have a long drive ahead of me and if you don't mind I'd rather just watch a movie and then leave."
"Fine." He added a sigh to show his disappointment. "How about a classic?"
"What do you have in mind?"
"Romeo and Juliet."
We watched the movie without so much as a word. At the end we hugged said our good-byes one last time and then I walked out the door. Out of his life.
The drive wasn't long three days. I arrived at Forks and I had almost forgotten how cloudy this place was. The woman whom I had bought Charlie's house from was waiting for me at the entrance.
"Hello, you must be Isabella Cope. Nice to finally meet you." She let out her hand and I took it.
"Thank you. You must be Mary Cadman."
"Yes. Are you alone? I thought you were coming with you father? He signed for everything." My father was actually just Angel. Well named too. He was a vampire I had meet in Barcelona. Whenever I needed him he would come and help. Since I had decided to go back to high school he posed as my father to buy the house. About thirty years ago we lived together in Canada however that was short lived. We each had our own diet.
"Well he is bringing the truck with our stuff and he got delayed by traffic. I reached this place first but he'll be here in an hour or so." I gave her the most innocent smile I managed to make. Angel was coming just for a week to help me through the transition of being here again and convincing people I didn't live alone. I was expecting him tomorrow morning.
"Well let me show you around the house. It will take about fifteen minutes then I'll leave you."
We walked in and she gave me a tour of the house. It was not needed I remembered the house though remembering Charlie was difficult. I knew he was my father but I couldn't really place a picture in my head. To be honest I remembered very little. The Cullen's I couldn't forget my mother was in my mind but after that it was blurry. I can't remember ever having friends as a human. When Mary was done talking she handed me the keys.
The tour was done. I ran up to my room and sat on the ground. Everything I remembered suddenly came rushing into my head. The happiness and the sorrow fought within my mind and it took everything I had to not let myself collapse on the ground. I just stood there taking it all in. There was a knock on the door and I was pulled from my trance. I left my room and made my way to the door.
"Hello love." Angel smiled at me.
