Two updates in the space of one day? I know.. I'm surprised too! The next chapter will be up either later on tonight or tomorrow! Enjoy!
I'm on edge as I walk along the icy streets of Seattle; my eyes darting around for any sign of familiarity.
I have no clue as to what I would do if I bumped into Alice or, God forbid, any other member of his family.
I sigh heavily as my mind races with all the possible outcomes of encounters with Esme or Carlisle, Alice or Jasper, Emmett or Rosalie.. or Edward.
I am overwhelmed with the way just thinking his name makes me feel.
I think back to the first day I met him, I was the new girl in Forks High School and he was the rich boy who kept to himself. I was drawn to him as soon as he said, "Hello." I fought my emotions, realising he was too good for me, but it turned out fate had different ideas.
I hate fate sometimes.
Was it fate that made me leave him? Was it fate that made me break his heart, whilst sacrificing my own happiness, and my own heart?
I am so lost in my thoughts I don't see the box laying on the ground in front of me, and I trip over it, hitting the ground harshly.
I gasp in pain as a stone digs into my palm and I hear people crowding around me, and one friendly man grabs my arm and helps me to my feet. I cradle my sore hand to my chest, turning to thank the man who helped me up.
I inhale sharply as I stare into the familiar eyes, and the crowd around me disappears.
My heart is pounding in my chest as I stare at him, my entire body frozen in fear.
He smiles slowly, looking at me with shock and surprise in his cerulean eyes. "Hello, Bella."
I close my eyes in defeat, whispering a reply, "Hello, Jasper."
