Chapter 1
Bella POV
He did beat me home. He was parked in Charlie's spot when I pulled in front of my home. That was a bad sign. He didn't plan to stay then. I shake my head and take a deep breath, and come to meet me. He reached to take my book bag from me. That was normal. But he shoved it back onto my seat. That was not normal
"come for a walk with me" he suggested in a unmotional voice, taking my hand
I didn't answer. I couldn't think of a way to protested, but I instantly know that I wanted to. I didn't like this "this is bad, this is very bad" the voice in my head repeated again and again, but he didn't wait for an answer. He pulled me along towards the east side of the yard, where the forest encroached. I followed unwillingly, trying to thick through the panic. It was what I wanted. I reminded myself. The chance to talk it all through, so why was the panic choking me? We done only a few steps into the trees when he stopped. We were barely on the trail. I could still see the house. Some walk
Edward leaned against the tree and stared at me, his expression unreadable
"Okay, let's talk" I said. It sounded braver then I felt
He takes a deep breath
"Bella, we're leaving"
I took a deep breath, too. This was on accepted option. I thought I was prepared. But I still had to ask
"Why now? Another year"
"Bella, it's time. How much longer could we stay in Forks, after all? Carlisle can barely pass for thirty, and he's claiming thirty-three now. We'd have to start over soon regardless" his answered confused me. I thought the point of leaving was to let his family live in peace. Why did we have to leave if we going? I just stared at him
He stared back coldly
With a roll of nausea, I'd realised I misunderstood
"when you say we" I whispered
"I mean my family and myself" each word separate and distract
I shake my head back and fourth mechanically, trying to clear it. He waited without any sign of impatience. It took a few minutes before I could speak
"Okay" I said "I go with you"
"you can't, Bella. Where we going… it's not the place for you"
"where you are is the right place for me"
"I'm no good for you, Bella"
"don't be ridiculous" I wanted to sound angry, but it just sound like I was begging "you're the very best part of my life"
"my world is not for you" he said grimly
"What happened with Jasper, that was nothing, Edward! Nothing!"
"you're right" he agreed "it was exactly what has to be expected"
"you promised! In Phoenix. You promised that you would stay"
"As long as that was best for me" he interrupted to correct me
"No! This is about my soul, isn't it" I shouted in a furious voice as I started shaking a bit from anger, the words exploding out of me – somehow it still sound like a plea "Carlisle told me about that, I don't care, Edward. I don't care! You can have my soul. I don't want it without you. It's yours already"
He took a deep breath and stared, unseeingly, at the ground for a long moment. His mouth twisted the tiniest bit. When he finally looked up, his eyes were different – like the liquid gold had frozen solid
"Bella, I don't want you to come with me" he spoke the words slowly and precisely, his cold eyes on my face, watching as I absorbed what he was really saying these was a pause as I repeated the words in my head a few times, sifting through them for their real intent
So I started shaking real bad like I'm going to explode and I can't stop the shaking for some reason
"Bella, are you alright?" Edward asked in a worried voice as he saw me shaking
Before I knew it I exploded then I looked up to see Edward take a step forward with a smirk on his face
'what's with him' I thought to myself
'Hey, look we got a newbie' I heard an unfamiliar male say then he realised a leech was standing in front of me 'where are you? I come and get you'
So I showed him then I looked back to see Edward wasn't standing there anymore but before I knew what was happening I was pinned down by Edward who had a evil smirk on his face
'hold on, we are on our way. I'm Sam by the way and who are you?' I heard a male say in a deep voice
'Bella. Bella Swan' I told him
'What? But she isn't either Quileute' someone else butted into their conversation
I was brought out of it when Edward started laughing "you fell for it, I knew you were a wolf" he said to me which the others heard because they growled out "so I got hold of the volturi and they want you"
I let out a growl as he hit me hard to knock me out
'Bella, stay awoke till we get there'
'I'm sorry' I thought back to them as I closed my eyes
'No! Stay awake' that's all I got as I blacked out
