Summary: All Human, Bella caught Edward cheating on her with Tanya and breaks up with him but Edward just can't seem to move on.
Nothing
EPOV
I checked my phone for the twelfth time in an hour.
No New Messages.
Again.
I rubbed my hands over my face, feeling the stubble on my chin and taking notice of the bags appearing under my eyes while rubbing my ring finger on my left hand, so close. Who knew a girl could break me this easy?
Who knew a hand could feel so empty?
A week after we broke up, if you could call it that, I had called her, been round to her house, left countless voicemails, wrote letters, asked her brother about her, been to her workplace. Heck I even sent her inboxes on Facebook but all my attempts were futile. She was impossible. All week I had been wallowing in self-pity, anything that reminded me of her would trigger me to storm back to my apartment to be alone so after the first couple of days I stopped even trying to get up and go out.
'Come on, Edward. Stop beating yourself up about it. You're EDWARD CULLEN, the guy all the girls fall for. So go clean up and get dressed, we're hitting the town tonight, my friend, and you WILL get lucky.' Jasper jumped up off the couch, he had stayed with me the past couple of nights, to make sure I didn't do anything stupid. Although he was good company, it didn't help he was engaged to my sister, who also happened to be Bella's best friend.
'Come on, you will forget about her!' He pulled off my duvet and picked up his phone. I guessed he was calling Emmett for reinforcement, but he wouldn't help, he was her brother, they looked way too alike as well.
'Emmett will be here in an hour, if you are not ready by then, that's it, we can't help you at all and no one will want you. Maybe if Bella see's you trying to get out she'll talk to you, at least be friends.' At the mention of Bella I muttered that I wouldn't get lucky tonight and that I didn't want to but I went to take a shower and shave anyway, hoping she too was out tonight.
'Edward, you ready mate?' Emmett popped his head round the corner of my room, they looked alike in many ways was all I could think, the chocolate eyes and the brown curls.
I nodded my head. I looked up at Emmett and forced a smile, it didn't feel right but I tried anyway.
I pulled on my leather jacket she had tossed at me when she kicked me out of her house last Saturday, it smelt of her and I didn't want to wear it too much to take off her beautiful scent but tonight it would be a comfort.
'I'm ready.' I muttered, dragging my feet as Emmett and Jasper flanked my right and left.
We started at our local bar.
'Hey Edward!' I got called over by Mike, Tyler and Eric, I gave them a small nod in acknowledgement, hoping my failure of a smile was tricking them more than it did Emmett and Jasper and found a seat in the back of the place, where it was nice and dark.
'Hey, Edward, What do you want to drink?' Emmett boomed, walking over to the counter.
'Beer? Budweiser?' Jasper asked me. I didn't realise I was staring at the door until he shook me physically.
'Wait a minute Jasper.' I got up and shifted through the small clusters of people, to get nearer to the entrance, and I was almost definite that I saw the soft, shiny mahogany locks.
'Edward?' I heard Jasper call but I ignored him as I came out the entrance. I looked around the now misty street, I was definitely sure it was her.
I reluctantly turned back to enter the bar.
'Coke please.' I answered Emmett, who gave me a funny look and Jasper looked concerned.
' I needed air.' I answered the unspoken question, they both nodded their heads.
We had been in the bar for near enough an hour and a half; I had turned on to stronger liquor, Whiskey, double and triple shots. Throughout the evening, as I became even more drunk and more out of it I kept seeing her, her chocolate eyes, her hair, the perfect shade of blue that she wore, her voice, her blushing cheeks, her full lips, even her smell. Everything reminded me of her and the more drinks I had, the more her presence would not leave, and I knew I would not forget her any time soon.
'Come on lets hit another club eh?' Emmett stood and helped me out of the door, Jasper behind. As soon as we hit the street, I saw her, I knew it.
'BELLA!' I shouted. 'BELLA, PLEASE I DIDN'T MEAN IT AND I'M SORRY. BELLA!'
Emmett looked alarmed at Jasper and then back at me.
'Please Edward, shush. No one is there.' I fought against him trying to run to her.
'Edward, come on, calm down now.' Jasper put a hand on my shoulder, pulling me back and I let my body sag, knowing it was no use to fight against them.
'Emmett, please let me go see her. I could talk to her and she will listen.' I slurred my words a bit but it all made perfect sense to me. 'I could ask her to take me back. I could apologise. I could – I could – try.' I stumbled and tipped a little over my own feet. I stopped and slumped down the brick wall.
Emmett took his phone out of his pocket and gave it to me.
' Give her a call. She might pick up if she knows it's me.' I searched through his phone
B...B...Be...Bella! I clicked the call button..
'Pick up, pick up, Please pick up!' I muttered, holding the phone to my ear.
Then I heard her lovely voice flow through the phone.
'Hey It's Bella, leave a message.' My heart cracked a little, as I left the message.
'Bella, I know I am the last person you would want to hear from right now, I get it but please, please talk to me, contact me in any way, I can't. I can't do this. I'm in love with you Bella. I always will be. It's always been YOU and only ever will be YOU. I am so sorry.' I clicked end call and passed the phone back to Emmett.
'She'll be in right?' I asked Emmett, Bella wasn't one to go out on Saturday nights, much preferring to cuddle up to a movie or a good book and a hot chocolate on her sofa.
'What? Edward that's not a good idea.' Emmett warned as I started to get up, Bella only lived a block away, but I could run that, drunk or not.
'No, she won't see me any other way.' I started what I thought was a light jog to get to Bella's, hoping she'd still be awake it was only 10pm.
My head and my feet weren't communicating properly so ended up stumbling past the park fences and as I got closer to her door, every step I take I hoped she'd open up and listen to me, take me back, I thought, when she sees how much this is killing me and how guilty I feel, she'll have to.
'Bella!' I called. 'Bella, it's me, please open up!' Emmett and Jasper shushed me, telling me it's late and I should be quiet and maybe I should come back tomorrow.
'No I have to see her.' I knocked on her door, full force, three times.
'Please Bella.' I could see her bedroom light on, even if the world was a little spinning now.
I saw Alice and Rosalie peek out the curtains, shrugging and sending me saddened looks as I gazed up at the window.
'Please.' I began to sob as I sat on her step, outside her door.
I fumbled getting my phone out my pocket, knowing she wouldn't pick up but hoping for something else.
It rang off. She had switched her phone off. She knew I what I was going to do.
My heart dropped in my chest as sobs racked my body.
Jasper and Emmett dropped by the side of me.
'Look I know breaking up is hard.' Jasper sighed.
'No, you don't Jazz. You have got Alice and Emmett's got Rosalie.' I moaned, pulling my jacket round me tighter. My hands were shaking, my head was spinning, I could hardly breathe and I probably looked a mess.
I tried a last time to knock on the door hopelessly, gaining no attention. Nothing.
'I love you.' I whispered as Emmett and Jazz helped me to my feet.
'I love you.'
