It was all too much, that is the reason I left. Of course now I have no place to go but I did it. Even though it kills me to think of how I hurt her, I got out. Mom and I have been really rough on each other and I had finally had enough, which is why I sit here, alone and in the dark.
I turn on my phone and see I have three unread texts. I don't even read them before turning my phone back off. I can't stand the dark, all I see is my mom screaming and talking of suicide. I try to distract myself by thinking of Edward but that thought hurts even worse. The wind blows and its cold against my bare skin, I shiver. 'I will not go back' is all I can think. I look down at my phone and in defeat I turn it back on. Two of the texts are from mom and one is from Alice, intrigued I open the text.
Hey Bells, u need to go home. It is not safe. Go back be4 it's too late. – Alice
I want to laugh because I have been out at least 15 minutes since she sent that. I look around and all I see is complete darkness. The direction of the wind changes and I am afraid. I hear the rustling of leaves from behind me, so I turn around. Nothing is there.
" Hello?" I call out hoping it is my imagination. The rustling of the winds pick up once more. The images and thoughts of my panicking mother are now replaced with me, dying alone near a dark graveyard. I hear a beep and I look at my phone, a new text.
Get home Bella!
It's a number I don't recognize so I ignore it. The tree branches sway back and forth with the wind and I am so scared I can't move even if I want to. I hear my mom's yells and screams in the distance the horrible feelings that come overwhelm me. Suddenly, I am grabbed by two arms and without thinking I scream at the top of my lungs.
" EDWARD!!" My voice echoes on and on. No answer, no help, nothing. I can't see anything and I am to the point of hysterics. I hear a beep and its new text. My hands are free so I take a look at the message.
Damn it Bella!
It's the same number that I don't recognize but the writing is oddly familiar. Its then I realize its Edward and Edward is on his way.
