The car went away flying 'Damn,' I thought 'I loved that truck!'
Well, perhaps not anymore, was my second thought, as the car I had just claimed my love to came towards me, his intention was clear: kill her for not washing me.
Run Bella, don't let it kill you! You can do it, the tornado will not sweep you off your feet. Run, run, run. And keep going. That's all your life is about ain't it? Running away when things get tough?
PENG,PENG, PENG.
I seriously love that alarm clock now, but sometimes, I just hate it. But now, now I just love it, it has saved me from another recurring nightmare. Don't get me wrong, the dream wasn't by any means pleasant, I'm just used to it. The nightmare was what was about to happen, I could see it already, the borders staring to dim, turning into the old hotel room where my marriage ended. The walls starting to slowly shade into the faded blue, generic flower print of the walls. The nightmare always started different, that's why it always took me by surprise, but kind of expected also.
I´m Bella Cullen, no, scratch that, I´m Bella Swan.
Aah. It was still difficult, and even though I tried acting cool about it, every time I had to be introduced and say "excuse me, Bella Swan, not Bella Cullen" I felt a pang in my heart that didn´t seem to care how much I tried to cover it, still fought to come out. And out it came. Every single time I said my name.
So, back to the nightmare shall we? 3 years ago I married Edward Cullen, my dream guy… actually, every girl´s dream guy. We had known each other since college and we became best friends. Once we graduated, we were already starting to feel attracted towards each other. We decided to work together chasing tornadoes, to let our dream come true. He had been dreaming about chasing tornadoes since he was 7 and I was obsessed with them since 20 years ago, when I was ten, a tornado came to my hometown and took away everything I cared about: My parents, my Lizzie doll and my dog Hunter. Just before I became an orphan, my aunt Esme and her husband Carlisle Hemingway found out they couldn´t have kids and as soon as my parents died, they took me in without a doubt and raised me as their own. Therefore I continued being an only child, it didn´t really bother me, but sometimes, when my aunt and uncle were in their room talking quietly I just felt so lonely and wished to have a brother and sister to talk to. Eventually, my wish came true…. sort of. I met Alice and we instantly clicked and became best friends, we became so close it was almost as if she were my real, biological sister. So, I married Edward when I was 26, after dating 6 years….. That´s right, 6 years. We were only married for 3 years though… its kind of sad, that we went out longer then we were married. It´s just that once we were married, we sort of thought we had to grow up, act more mature… so things changed. Our relationship suddenly had no more playfulness in it and he became way overprotective and if you work around tornadoes, it came be VERY annoying. Every time I called him out on the fact that he had to stop worrying about me so much, he got mad and told me he had to do so because he protected the ones he loved and I was his wife, that it was part of his role. I knew this but, when we were dating it wasn´t so bad. Eventually our stubbornness and frustration got the best of us and the marriage we´d so carefully built for 6 years broke. We just stopped making love, we rarely talked, every decision that had to be made was done with glares and frustrated sighs. One day he just came to me with the papers and said "This isn´t working. Can you please sign the divorce?" I was shocked to say the least, I mean, I still loved him with all of my being. I had secretly contacted and made an appointment with a marriage counselor for the following week, I was determined to not let the best relationship of my life go away just like that. He didn´t have the same determination though. So I signed the papers and as soon as I signed them said to him to have Emmett contact me in the morning to determine where would we meet to start our hunt. I went back home and cried in the lap of my aunt all night long. If the team was surprised, they didn't show it, but I would catch Emmett, who had come to be like my big brother, sometimes eyeing me warily and then turning to glare at Edward. Edward of course, didn´t notice.
Then there was Jasper. Jasper, being the calculative, sweet and observing guy he was came to me the next day after signing the papers after taking just one glance at me and wrapped me up in his arms and told me he was sorry and that whatever Edward had done to upset me, he woud come to the realization that he was a very stupid man for letting me go.
