"Edward, I'm sorry, I love you but I have to go. I…I just need to clear my head, you know? Think things through a little," I whispered.
I saw the pain spread on his face. "Okay Bella, I respect your decision. But just know that if you ever wish to come back, I'll be here waiting."
"Never doubt that I don't love you. I just need some time. I told Charlie I was leaving. Goodbye Edward," I leaned in and gave him one last kiss. Then I ran to my car. As soon as I was out of his view, I began to cry.
That happened two years ago. I left because I couldn't handle all the decisions that I had to make with getting married, possibly becoming a vampire, etcetera. I went to college, but I couldn't get Edward out of my head. After thinking about my life, I decided that I did need him in it so I flew back out to Forks. I am now twenty-five years old and I deeply miss all the Cullens.
I stepped off the plane and saw Charlie waiting. It seemed like it was just yesterday that I came to Forks for the first time.
"Hey dad, I've missed you," I said as I gave him a hug.
"I've missed you too Bells, but it's nice to have you back. Jacob has bugging me all day asking when you were coming," Charlie laughed.
I began to laugh too, but then began to realize the whole reason I left in the first place. I knew that saying goodbye to Charlie, Renee, and Jacob would be so difficult.
During the car ride home it was especially quiet. I wanted to talk to Charlie, but my thoughts were racing in my mind. Would Edward still take me back? Did he even miss me? Is Jacob still the Jacob I know and love? Are the Cullens angry at me for just leaving?
We pulled into Charlie's house where I would be staying until I could afford my own place. I stepped out of the car and took my bags up to my old room. Once I sat on my bed, all the memories of Edward and I came flooding back to me. I had to get out, now.
I dashed down the stairs and yelled out to Charlie, "Dad, I'm going to take a walk. I'll be back later."
I didn't even wait to hear his response I just started walking. I knew that walking in the woods by myself was extremely stupid, especially for me, but I just had to get away from my house. And of course, as fate would have it, I tripped about a minute into my walk.
"Typical," I muttered under my breath.
"Bella, is that you?" A voice called out.
I turned to see who it was, and I was beyond shocked.
I know you all think you know who it is, but it's not Edward. So who could it possibly be? I guess you'll have to figure it out. Well don't forget to write reviews. If you like it, then tell me, it makes me feel better XD Oh and this isn't your typical Bella goes away then comes back and gets changed by Edward, so don't worry!
