Goodbyes
BPOV
I'm getting changed today! I'm so…I can't even explain it. The thought of me being with Edward for the rest of eternity is so overwhelming but everything I want. I thought as I looked at myself in the mirror.
"Bells you're going to be late for your own graduation!" Charlie called from downstairs, sounding a bit agitated but probably because Renee was here and the sooner this was over the sooner she would be gone. It's so sad they don't really talk but they used to be in love.
"I'M COMING!" I yelled back once I gave myself the final look over before I went to my last event as a human girl.
We all piled into the car, Charlie, Renee and I and headed for Forks high school. All during the drive all I could start to think about was how much I was going to miss my parents once I changed. This thought saddened me so much I started to tear and of course being the overbearing mother she is Renee saw it.
"Oh honey! What's wrong? Sad that it's graduation?" Renee asked
"Yeah" I replied weakly and attempted a little smile as she patted my head.
The Graduation Day
We finally arrived to the school where we met up with the Cullens. For once thankfully it was not sunny out because had it been I wouldn't have been able to share this wonderful day with my Edward. We were first greeted by the always cheerful Alice.
"BELLA MY LOVE! Aren't you so happy this is over! No more school!" Alice said while putting me in a death grip.
"Y-e-s and c-a-n-t BREATHE!" I said trying to gain some air.
"Sorry chica"- Alice replied
"Since when do you say chica?" I laughed.
"Since I started watching MTV" she said
"You watch MTV?" I inquired
"WHAT'S WITH THE TWENTY QUESTIONS!?! I just said chica jeeeez…chica" she managed to get out through laughs.
"Twenty questions? I thought we were past that game" My looking every bit like a Greek god boyfriend said.
"I can't a girl just ask a question?"
"I suppose" grabbing me and holding me close he whispered in my ear "Today is the big day, are you ready?" as he looked over at my parents as they were trying to find their seats.
"As ready as I'll ever be" I sighed.
The ceremony was long, tear filled, and very liberating. Afterwards, my family and Edward's family took many pictures and I got some with Jess and Angie too. Because of course my mom wanted this day documented, such a mother thing. After all of the pictures, hugs, and tears I left with my parents to have our last dinner as a family because later I would be going out with Edward and stage my death before the transformation.
Dinner was great. We went to this great Italian restaurant in Port Angeles. Renee and Charlie actually talked gasp. Renee was leaving in the morning back to Phil so I helped her pack as I waited for Edward.
"Sweetie, I'm so proud of you." My mom beamed.
"Thanks mom" I said quietly because I was about to cry, so choked up with emotion.
"Aww sweetie, don't be sad I'll se you over the summer. Remember you and Alice are coming to visit me in Jacksonville remember?" she sad hugging me
"Yeah, I love you mom"
"I love you too"
"Hey bells, can you help me get some fish out of the freezer" Charlie said standing in the doorway.
"Sure dad" I said giving my mom one last hug.
We walked down to the freezer.
"Bells, there was a time I didn't think you were going to make it to this day, after Edward left. But now, I am so proud to see you happy again, even though I don't completely trust Edward, I'm happy he came back and your whole again." He said pulling me into a hug.
"Yeah, I didn't think I'd make it either. Cha-Dad, I just wanted to thank you for trying to help me when I was sad, that meant a lot to me, I love you."
"I love you too Bella"
The doorbell rang, it was Edward. It was time to go. We left with few problems, my parents were just so happy about the day. Although, Charlie thoroughly warned Edward about my curfew.
"No worries, your daughter is safe with me" he said nuzzling into my neck.
"Bye, mom and dad" I said weakly
We walked out to the Volvo. Inside I broke down and wailed like a banshee. I couldn't help it, I was leaving my parents. But then Edward held on to my, running his fingers through my hair rocking me back and forth. I finally composed my self and looked his dazzling topaz eyes.
"I love you Bella, but you don't have to do anything you don't want"
"I love you too, and I'm doing everything I want, I want to be with you forever." I said with a blush.
"I'm going to miss that blush" he said with a bit of sadness in his eyes.
We continued to the Cullen house where everything was being set up. When we arrived we were greeted by Carlisle and Esme.
"Hello dear" Esme said embracing me
"Never been better" I said
"Well everything is in place, is there anything you want to do before we proceed with this" Carlisle asked thoughtfully.
"Nope, I'm ready for this" I replied.
"Alight then, come along"
Showtime?
This is what I wanted. It's finally time. Poor Edward he looks distraught.
"Everything is going be ok" I said reassuringly
"I know, I'm just…you know worried as always" he said somewhat sad
I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
We finally reached Edward's room where they had a queen sized bed and stuff to restrain me.
Well this is it. We went over to the bed and I sat there with Edward. He looked into my eyes and gave me smile. I couldn't help it but I got dazzled. He started to kiss me then slowly moved to my neck. Then he bit into it. Oh my, owww ,owww shouldn't I be blacking out? Aaahhhhh…then Blackness came.
EPOV
Control. Yourself. Don't take too much. Her eyes are still open, what's going on. Finally her eyes closed but then…
"SHE'S CONVULSING! What's going on? I know the transformation is painful but I've never seen convulsions. Carlisle" I cried
"I don't know what's going on maybe…wait they've stopped. This isn't going the way it should" He responded perplexed.
"She looks so calm, it's eerie." I said.
"I know this seems strange but maybe because she is so different than other humans is why. Come along Edward lets go join the rest of the family and inform them she's doing fine."
"Ok" I replied looking at my angel
We went downstairs and joined everyone. I felt calm wash over me from Jasper because I felt so nervous and overwhelmed.
"How is she" Rosalie asked
"Fine I suppose, it's strange, she's eerily calm." I said
"Well everything will turn out fine" Alice said with uncertainty looking worriedly at Jasper.
"You don't sound to sure about that, what do you see?" Edward asked curiously
"Nothing, it's blank, I'm trying but nothing!" cried Alice.
"Alice, it's ok, everything will be fine" Said Jasper trying to calm his wife.
Then they heard it THUD...CRASH!
"WTF…wait…it came from upstairs!" exclaimed Emmett.
"BELLA!" Edward roared running at vampire speed up the stairs, stopping almost tripping over himself as he saw the most beautiful thing in the world.
