"Shit I'm gunna be late." I vented to Jessica, my best friend.

"No you won't. The magazine loves me so they will have to love you." She encouraged.

"Alright then... I don't wanna be late for the interview so I'll see you when I'm back here at our apartment and if I get it...I'll see you later." I smiled as I ran out of the building with my briefcase and purse in my fall jacket. A little cold for Forks weather. I moved here when I was nineteen.

I ran into Lolo's Fashion Magazine building and went to the front desk.

"Hello." I said politely.

"Isabella? Right?" The young girl asked.

"Bella. Bella Swan." I smiled.

"Ahh yes. Floor seven and Angela will assist you from there. I'm Rosalie by the way."

"Thanks."

"Good luck." She grinned.

I nodded and ran towards the elevator and pressed floor seven.

As the doors opened I went to the desk where a brunette was humming away at the computer.

"Hi. I'm Bella. I have an appointment with manager of Lolo." I explained.

The girl looked up and her eyes widened. "Bella? Bella Swan?" She confirmed and I nodded.

She stood up and smiled shyly. "Right this way." She said pointing down the narrow hallway. "Turn left than left than right and straight passed all the desks and passed people and the kitchen then left, right and straight and you are there." She smiled.

"What?"

"Here." She said writing it down. "Have fun and good luck." Everyone was so friendly here.

I smiled and stared at the paper, that's it when I bumped into something and hot coffee spilled all over me.

"Crap." She voice said.

I looked up at the guy who was looking down at his shirt that had spilled coffee and so did mine. I bumped into him while I was zoned out in my own little world trying to find the office. Kill me.

"I am so sorry." I apologized.

"It's alright. I'm just about to go into an interview." He mumbled, still looking at his shirt and all I saw what his bronze hair facing me.

Crap. He was the manager.

"Oh. I don't mind. I am the one being interviewed. Bella. Bella Swan." I laughed it off lightly and when I said my name his head shot up and his emerald green eyes met with mine for the first time in six years.

"Edward?" I asked, shocked.

"Bella..."

"I have to go." I said walking away right then and there.

"Wait."

"What?"

"At least let me interview you."

"I can't be here."

"Please."

I turned around and nodded my head and he escorted me to his office.

I sat down in the chair after he was in his.

"Isabella Marie." I chuckled. "What brings you here. To Lolo...fashion...to Forks!"

"I always wanted to live in a small town. Remember? And my friend, Jessica told me about it and I needed a job. Plus I remember a lot from Alice."

"She is the creator of Lolo's." He stated.

"Oh." I shouldn't be here.

"She'll be thrilled to see you. She didn't talk to me for two years when I insisted on leaving."

"Can we not talk about that?"

"Sorry." He mumbled. Wasn't he supposed to be in charge?

"Why did you leave?" I asked.

"I was embarrassed." He confessed.

"About what?"

"My actions were wrong...stupid."

"I didn't think so." I admitted quietly.

"What?" He ask, not having have heard.

"Nothing. Look, this is a waste of my time. I have to go."

"Say hi to Alice at least. Stay. We could have coffee."

"If she was my friend she would have contacted me sooner or later. Not have waited for me to find her accidentally. Please stop trying to get in my pants."

"Bella. I'm not trying to get in your pants. Could you be somewhat professional." He told me.

"You left me!" I accused.

"I know."

"Fuck it. I have to go." I said storming out of his office bumping into another thing.

Alice.

"Bella? Bella Swan?"

"Alice..."

She dropped everything she was holding and pulled me into a hug. The whole office gasped.

"Where have you been hiding?"

"In my room for half a year being home schooled when the Cullen's left Arizona."

"Oh." She whispered. "He wouldn't let me go back."

"Alice. You were my best friend. What happened?"

She pulled my arm and into her office and shut the door.

"Here is what happened."

Flashback

APOV

Edward came storming into the house and ran up to his room and I followed after him.

"Edward? What happened? Do you and Bells get into a fight?"

"Come in." He said not wanting to yell through the door.

"Well?"

"I kissed her and she kissed me back."

"Really...that is what you're being a baby about."

"I shouldn't have."

"Why?"

"Because...you know."

"No...I don't-" Then I stopped, remembering. "Oh. That shouldn't hold you back."

"You don't understand! Bella and I can't be in a relationship."

"Because you are friends, really? And why the fuck are you packing."

"I convinced mom to let us move."

"You WHAT?"

"You are coming and you can never say goodbye to Bella."

"I refuse." I confided.

"You are never seeing her again." He yelled.

"How are you gunna stop me, huh?"

"I'll tell mom and dad."

"Tell them what?"

"About you and Jasper."

"You wouldn't."

"Man, you are PREGNANT. If you don't come with us and see her. I'll tell them."

"Edward, no."

"Yes."

"Dude! WHAT THE FUCK? Stop overreacting."

"I have to go. Come on preggers."

"You won't tell them."

"But I will. Come."

"What is the big deal? So you kissed her. She kissed you back! You and Bella like each other. Why is that so hard for you to understand?"

"Alice," He was crying now. "Please,"

"Is there something I don't know Ed?"
