Chapter 2: forks
CPOV

One year. It had been one year since I saw her. I couldn't stop thinking about her since that night.

Esme.

My Esme.

I ran a hand through my hair. She wasnt my Esme. She never would be. I could never see her again. Not if I wanted to keep her safe from the volturi. She already noticed I didn't age. Last time I saw her she was 10, had a broken arm. Now 10 years later and I havent changed at all! I shouldn't have stayed and talked to her, but I couldnt stop myself. Something about her, I had to be near her. To feel her warm skin, her soft lips, her caramel colored hair.

No!

I shook my head, I can't think of her, the more I think of her the more I want to go to her. I did go back once after that night, but she never saw me. I saw her, she was with a man, she looked happy. I couldn't take her away from that. Edward had told me that if she felt the same way I did, she could not be happy with someone else, but I just couldn't bring myself to take her from her life, her human life.

I stood from my desk and walked out of my office. The hallway was empty aside from a few nurses. Forks Washington wasnt a very large town. The hospital wasnt very big either. My shift was almost over, I just wanted to check on my overnight patients before I went home. I was walking down the hall when I heard her. She was here? Now?

I listened intently, it wasn't hard to hear with my vampire hearing. "excuse me, i'm here to see dr cullen?" she said, she was looking for me? I wonder how many hospitals she had been too before this one. "do you have an appointment?" the nurse asked, I frowned, I didnt like where this was going. "well, no but~" the nurse interuppted her "i'm sorry dr cullen is very busy today" I growled to myself, this is a nurse who has been here for years, she knew better then to turn away a patient looking for me "I understand but my son-" Esme tried again, the nurse interuppted her again "i'm sorry miss, if you would like to make an appointment for another day I can help you, otherwise I am sorry" she said, I heard a baby start crying then, it sounded slightly different then a human childs cry "please if you would just-" she stopped talking then, I heard her murmer something.

I rounded the corner then and saw her holding a small child. The nurse wasnt even looking at her.

I was about to call out to her when she rushed out of the hospital. I frowned. "Melanie what was that about" I asked the nurse, she jumped and looked up at me. "umm i'm sorry dr cullen, that woman was asking for you and I told her-" now I interuppted her. "that I was busy, yes I heard. I also heard her say something about her son. You know better then to turn away a patient who has requested me, especially one with a child."I told her sternly. her face paled. "i-im sorry dr cullen I-" I held my hand up, I didn't want to heard her weak human excuses.

Instead I rushed out of the hospital and into the street, it was pouring rain, something that was common here. I looked around searching for her, but I couldn't see her. and the rain made finding her scent much harder. I frowned to myself. I have to find her.

And this time I wasnt letting go.
