"It's time Bella! Get in the car, let's go," my mom yelled to me from her car while I stood on our front step refusing to let go of my dad.
"Please daddy, don't make me go. Don't make me leave," I cried to my father, Charlie.
He bent down to my size, gently pulled my chin up so that we were eye to eye, wiped away some of my fallen tears, and told me, "Bells, honey, this is not for forever. I wish more than anything in the world, that you could stay here with me, but right now your momma needs you. I'll call you everyday, see you as much as I can, and try to get you back home soon".
"BELLA LET'S GO!," my mom had gotten rather impatient as I said good bye to my dad.
"Bells, I love you," Charlie told me as he wiped away a traitorous tear that had fallen down his cheek. That was the first time I had ever seen my father cry and it was
not something that I liked.
I gave him one last hug, patted Emily, my new puppy, grabbed my backpack that was full of things to keep busy in the car, and walked to the car refusing to look at my mother.
She was the one that was forcing me to go. Forcing me from my home, tearing up our family, and taking me away from Edward. I was not happy with her in the least.
I sat in my seat, holding my backpack, thinking about everything, when all of a sudden I saw a little copper head run to my door and open it.
"Hurry up Bella! Get out! Come on I'm gonna save you." He was trying to catch his breath and talk at the same time, so I couldn't really understand what he said. But when his words didn't work, he grabbed my hand and we ran. Just like we had when we were 5, we ran to our safe spot, which recently had become a big willow tree with droopy branches that almost touched the ground, at the very very far corner in Edward's gigantic forest-like backyard.
We stayed hidden for what felt like days, the whole time Edward trying to calm me down with funny stories, funny faces, playing UNO, which was kind of difficult because while we were there Edward never once let go of my hand. When I had finally calmed down enough to talk, I asked him why he did it? Why did he save me?
"Silly Bella," he told me, "I had to save you! I don't want you to leave, if you leave we won't be friends anymore because we will never see each other. So you have to stay here with me."
"I don't want to leave Edward, but my Mom is being mean and says that I don't have a choice," I told him as more tears rolled down.
"Please don't leave Bella," Edward said, "Promise that you'll try to stay?".
"I'll try my hardest Edward, I promise," I told him.
We were both emotionally and physically exhausted, so he wiped the tears off my face, and held me close to him, while we waited to be found.
I was awakened by a bright light being shone in my face, I looked up to see my father in his police uniform shining his flash light in our direction. Looking at the sky, I could tell that it was dusk, so we had been out here for about an hour.
"Renee! Esme! I found them. They are right here and perfectly fine," my dad yelled to my mother and Edward's mother, both of who started running towards us.
"Bella! What were you thinking? I'm so glad that you're okay," Renee yelled as she grabbed me into hug.
Then all of a sudden, she let go of me and turned to Edward who hide in Esme's arms.
"This is all your fault," she told him in her coldest voice, "Bella was perfectly fine leaving this horrible little town, until you came and practically kidnapped her-"
"RENEE! That is enough!," Charlie told her as he stepped in between her and Edward. Edward watched everything from the safety of his mother's arms, with his bright green eyes flicking between my parents. Esme, who had always been incredibly nice to me, was the only one who was looking at me to make sure that I was okay.
"Charlie, don't start. Bella hates it here, so I'm saving her from a horrible boring life living here. If she stays here, her and that boy would probably get married straight out of school, she'd get knocked up as a teenager, and her life would be over!," my mother said angrily.
"Don't even try to say any of that, Renee! Isabella is not you! She will not make your so-called stupid mistakes. I can't believe you," my dad told my mom.
"Well you can believe what you want to believe, but it still changes nothing. Bella will be coming with me, and we will be leaving here," she turned to face me and said, "Bella get your bag, we are getting out of here. Esme, you really should learn how to control that boy of yours."
Esme stood there looking like she had been slapped. I couldn't believe how my mother was acting. Esme had always been so kind to my mother, Charlie, and me, and Edward was at our house practically everyday. And now she was treating them as if they should be cleaning her shoes and worshipping the ground she walked on.
I wanted to yell and scream at her, tell her that I was not leaving, tell her that she was the one who was acting horrible. I wanted to put my foot down, but I never got the chance. She turned to where I was at, grabbed my bag and then my arm and dragged me to the car. I was put in the car, locked into my seat, and then locked in the car before I could even understand everything that had just happened.
My mother hurried to get in the driver's seat and take off, while I looked out the car window through my blurry eyes, to see my father and Edward both standing there looking at me with tears rolling down their own faces. Esme waved sadly at me as my mother started the car and pulled out. I quickly turned around to look out the back window to see everyone one last time, only to see Edward running to try and catch the car.
"Don't go Bella! Please," he had yelled as my mother only drove faster.
"Out of sight, out of mind," my mother had told me when I wouldn't stop crying, "Don't worry sweetie, you will forget him, just as he will forget you. It'll all be better at our new home. You'll make lots of new friends, and be happy."
That was when I promised myself that I would never forget. I would never forget my home and my father Charlie. and I certainly would never forget Edward, my best friend.
But of course, time changes everything...
Thanks for reading! Please review! It'd help a lot!
