I had finished packing now and was getting dressed to go over to the Cullen's.
"You ready Bell's?" Charlie called
"Yea coming" I replied. I walked out of my new room into the living room where Charlie was waiting.
"Okay let's go then" Charlie exclaimed suddenly after an awkward silence. I followed him to the front door, where we simply walked to the door right next to ours.
Charlie knocked on the door.
A woman I suspected was Edwards mum came to the door. She looked very loving and caring.
"Oh Bella, haven't you grown into such a pretty young lady". She gushed as she brought me into a warm embrace. I smiled at the complement. "You probably don't know me I'm Esme, Edwards mum"
"Hi" I said timidly
"Hello Charlie" Esme said looking away from me and up to my dad before hugging him too. "Come on in".
We followed her into the unit. Their one was exactly the same as ours. They were spacey units that had two levels and had new appliances and looks.
"Edwards upstairs in his room Bella if you want to go talk to him it's the first door to the left." Esme told me.
"Oh thanks I'll go up know" I said politely.
I walked up the stairs and walked towards the first door on the left. I was about to knock when I heard someone singing and playing the guitar from inside. I listened for a while entranced when it stopped. I decided now would be a good time to knock.
The door opened almost immediately. "Oh it's you Bella" he said "See I told you I'd see you tonight" He chuckled. I smiled; He was wearing the exact same thing he was wearing earlier today only he had a top on this time damn. Damn?
"Was that you playing just then?" I perked up the courage to ask.
"Oh you heard that? I thought you might of" He said looking away.
"It was really good" I said truthfully
"Thanks" He smiled "That's the secret side of Edward Cullen that everyone doesn't know so I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone" He said half heartedly.
"Why? Your really really good" I said "well from what I heard it was good"
"Because to everyone at school I'm the 'popular'" he said using air quotation marks with his fingers. "Edward Cullen who doesn't give a shit about anything or anyone." He said sitting down on his bed running his fingers through his hair "But I'm not that, that's nothing like the real me and I have no idea how everyone came to see me that way and now if I come out with this I'm afraid all my friends will ditch me."
"If their real friends then they won't leave you" I said sitting down next to him.
"DINNER" I heard Esme yell from down stairs.
"Come on dinner" I said standing up. He stood up as I opened the door and followed me down the stairs.
I walked into the living room where a blonde haired man, I assumed was Edwards dad was sitting next to Charlie watching the TV.
"Bella this is Carlisle, Carlisle this is Bella" Dad introduced us
"Nice to meet you" I said before we all walked over to the dinner table.
Esme had cooked a big bowl of pasta that looked delicious. She served us all a big plate full "thank you Esme this looks delicious" I said as she gave me a bowl.
"Oh that's okay sweetheart" she replied lovingly.
We small talked over dinner. Edward and I excused ourselves from the table, we took our plates into the kitchen and then went out onto the balcony.
"Your Balcony I like best you guys have a way better view ours is covered by trees" Edward said looking up at the stars.
"Well come over onto ours then" I said as I climbed over the railing and onto the ground where I walked over to my balcony and climbed onto it.
Edward did the same.
"See much better!" Edward exclaimed once he was comfortably positioned in the hammock.
"Okay I have to say our views much prettier" I admitted.
"If you want I can show you around town and introduce you to my friends tomorrow" Edward said after a short period of silence.
"Oh that'll be great thanks, I hope your friends like me" I said turning around so I wasn't facing the view but Edward in the hammock.
"Don't worry they'll like you, especially Alice."
"Alice?" I questioned
"You'll meet her tomorrow she's short and...Pixyish" I giggled. He sat up in the hammock as I went over and sat next to him in it.
Edward gently rocked us back and forth. It was totally silent as I looked up at the moon and started to think about my mother...where is she? My friends...do they miss me? My life...does anyone care anymore?
A silent tear trickled down my face.
"Bella you're crying." Edward said looking at me.
"You think I don't know." I said stubbornly.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" He asked patiently.
"Edward what do you think it's about my mum's missing I've just moved away from my friends that I've been with since I was 5 and I've moved away from everything that's familiar to me."
"What?" Edward said sitting up straight and looking down at me. "Your Mums missing?"
"You don't know?" I asked, confused
"No, everyone told me you were moving up here because you wanted to have a new start when did this happen?"
"Wednesday" I said looking away.
"Oh Bella I'm sorry I didn't know"
"Edward don't worry I can't change what's already happened, whatever happens, happens"
He sat back down and put his arm around me "It'll work out she probably will turn up in a few days with a brilliant story to tell"
Like it? Tell me what you want me to change or if there's anything you wanna tell me Review!
