I don't own anything except my plot twist, everything belongs to Stephanie Meyer
I could feel myself sinking back into depression, my zombie state. I couldn't stop it. Jacob didn't even want to be my friend, and I don't blame him. I was broken and wasn't fixable. The hole in my chest pulsed painfully when I remembered his words and his face, it was hard and emotionless, he wasn't my Jake anymore, my sun and rock.
I faintly heard Charlie come in through the front door then hung his jacket and belt on the hook "Hey Bells," He said when he noticed my presence in the kitchen making dinner. I couldn't answer. I knew y voice would crack and I didn't want to worry him, at least anymore than he already was. He sighed and plopped down onto one of the chairs "Listen Bells, I understand your hurting, you were doing so much better with Jacob," I flinched at his name "But you can't keep going on like this. I think getting away from Forks for a while will do you some good." I narrowly cut my finger when he said that. I put the potato I was peeling down and looked at Charlie "I don't want to go to Jacksonville." I said, barely above a whisper. He nodded "I know, that's why I'm sending you to your Grandma Marie's, I've talked to her and she agreed to look after you for a while." "I don't want to leave." I said stubbornly, I couldn't leave "Just for a while, when your better you can come back. I know your 18 Bella but I'm not taking no for an answer, you will be leaving this Sunday." "What about school?" I asked, trying desperately to get him to change his mind, he shook his head "I've already talked to the school as well, you will be doing everything online until you come back." I silently went back to my peeling, fuming that Charlie was sending me away, of corse he could have sent me to a shrink.
Next Sunday
I was still mad at Charlie, I knew he was worried about me and I probably did need this but that doesn't mean I had to like it. It felt strange to be angry, I haven't felt angry for a while, just misery, numbness, and the occasional happiness that Jake brought me. I flinched as the hole in my chest pulsed at the thought of his name. I was on the plane to Wyoming, why Grandma Marie lives there I don't know. The flight is only about 3 hours long but I was already exhausted, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I was woken up by the flight attendant and hurried off the plane, it was getting too crowded for me. After getting my luggage I waited, I haven't seen Grandma since Renee moved out of her house, I admit I kinda missed her, she was a stern woman and very hard-working, complete opposite of Renee. Its a wonder how they are related. "Bella." I snapped out of my memories and looked up, she looked the same, maybe a few more wrinkles but other than that. Same pale brown hair in a bun, the same brown eyes, the me lightly tanned skin, and the same stiff posture. I realized she was waiting for me to reply "Grandma." I stood up, she frowned as she took in my appearance "He did a number on you. We'll fix that. Come along." She turned around and gracefully started walking away, I've always wondered where her grace came from. Compared to her I must look like I'm waddling.
It was silent in the car ride for about 20 minutes when she spoke "During your stay I'm going to make sure you eat and take care of yourself. I remember when I was young Bella. Don't think your alone or the only one to go through something like this. You will get pass this, alright?" She glanced at me when I didn't answer "Aright?" I barely nodded even though I seriously doubt she could do anything, and I doubt many humans have been dumped by a vampire, who was also your soul mate "If he left you Bella then he isn't worth your time." I gasped as pain laced through me at the mention of HIM "I understand you can't forget something like that, but that doesn't mean you can't get better." Anger surged through me and I snapped at her "You don't understand anything." She merely raised an eyebrow, not looking at me "I could." "It's none of your business." She shrugged "You don't have to hold everything on your shoulders Bella." I sighed "There not my secrets to tell." I replied looking out the passenger window, wherever she lived, it was in the middle of nowhere, grassy plains covered the land as far as I could see. It was silent once again, and stayed silent for another hour until we reached her house.
The house was beautiful. It had a ranch style but had no farm animals. It was 2 story with a wrap-around deck and had light tan walls and a cherry brown roof. There was no fence and opened right into the plains "The house sits on over 20 acres, I like my space." Grandma said and I nodded 'that's a lot of space jut for her' I thought as we got out and followed her inside. The house had a surprisingly homey feel to it, it was bright and welcoming, like THEIR house, but this one didn't have any white, it was all done in we colors with bits of blue or green here and there. She gave me a tour, the house had the same style and the kitchen was amazing, it wasn't top modeled like THEIR house but looked like a family kitchen, I never realized how, empty feeling and expensive THEIR house was until now. My room was nice, it had pretty blue eyes with white and black trim, cherry wood floors with a black rug. A full bed, desk and chair with a computer on it, a bookshelf, and 2 beanbag chairs. There were 2 doors that I'm guessing leads to a bathroom and closet "You can unpack while I start dinner." I was suddenly guilty, yes she agreed to take me in but I know I won't be easy "I can make dinner." I offered, she seemed to be thinking it over before she looked back at me "You can make breakfast, but for now you need to unpack." I nodded silently as she left. Just like when I first arrived at Forks I knew I couldn't cry until bedtime so I got to work unpacking what little I had. I know I don't deserve it but I hoped I could get better.
