"No Strippers Emmet!" she shouted out the windows as she watched the three men disappear into the forest.
It was only 11:00, Bella set her alarm for 3 am. That would be her chance. The wedding was tomorrow and over the last couple of weeks, she had had a revelation. This was wrong. Her getting married now, was wrong. Her love for Edward was selfish and not guided by pure intentions. She was not well, and she knew it. Nightmares still haunted her and her decisions up till this point had been reckless. She hurt everyone around her in some way and she realized that she had no clue who she was anymore, if she even knew herself at all. She let one person become her whole world and became obsessed with it. Obsessed with a mirage of what she desired but what she desired was perfection. She desired immortality well, until now she did. But as bella watched the Cullen's day to day lives she realized, how horrible it truly was. To never have children , never eat, never sleep. To only look beautifulbut couldn't enjoy the sunshine and to have to move around year after year. What kind of life was that? To watch everyone you once knew die and you're the only one left. At one point in time, she would have given it all up. But not now, Not this time she would be selfish for good reasons. She continued to debated about her decisions, knowing Alice wouldn't see it because it would be too late. That's when she decided to wake Charlie, it was time.
The airport was full at 3 am. "are you sure kiddo? I mean I'm glad your not marrying that Edward guy but , do you have to leave now?" Charlie asked tears brimming his eyes. He was losing her too fast.
"I'm sure dad, if I don't do it this way, ill break my resolve and not stick to my guns. I have to live my life and discover who I am. I'm sorry I cant tell you where I'm going but I will call you as soon I find out. I love you dad. You've been the best and putting up with me."
"I love you kid, be safe out there. "
With that said charlie swan, hugged his daughter as tight as he could,. He didn't know when he would see her again.
It was five in the morning when Carlisle Cullen heard the knock on his front door. All six residents soon made their way to the living room, when they heard who it was.
"charlie?Its so early ? is everything alright? Please come in."
Charlie wiped the few tears from his already red and tear stained face. "Thank you, im sorry for being here so early but I wouldn't have come if it wasn't so important."
"charlie? Is everything ok? is bella ok!? " Edward asked coming into the living room frantic.
Charlie swan wasn't cruel, while he didn't like the boy he didn't wish this on anyone. While he agreed with his daughters decision, it didn't mean he didn't have a heart. So emphatically, he placed a hand on Edwards shoulders. "Bella fine. Its why I'm here actually. Theses are for you."
Edward felt his mother ring drop in his hand along with an envelope. He knew as soon as he felt the heaviness. He couldn't speak. "im sorry Edward. She wasn't ready. Um, whenever you want the car. It will be in my driveway."
Charlie turned to a sad and pained looking carslise. "well this is. Wow. I-"
"can I talk to her Charlie, is she at home?" Edward finally spoke interrupting carslise
"I'm sorry Edward. You cant. S- she left a couple hours ago. I don't know where. She refused to tell me."
"we understand Charlie. How about we contact you in a few days, while my family and I handle this situation. Don't worry about the wedding we will take care of everything but can call everyone Bella invited like um her friends and your friends in la push." Carsile requested as he walked Charlie to the door. "yeah, I can handle that."
Even after Charlie left, no one talked and no one moved. "I will call the caterer." Esme said to no one in particular. Suddenly, Edward was standing in front of alice. " DID YOU SEE THIS COMING! DID YOU SEE YOU SEE THAT I WOULD LOSE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!"
Jasper in attempt to defend his mate quickly shoved Edward away but that only made him angrier. Edward shoved jasper, but he couldn't do any damage because emmet had him restrained. "Attacking us , is not going to help you edward."
"everyone Stop! Enough. Emmet take Edward out to hunt. Esme and alice call whoever needs to be notified and Rosalie and jasper help me break down outside." Carsile ordered sternly but softly.
His family had been shattered.
