Third person POV
After that fateful day Edward and Bella fell more in love with each other then anyone expected … Today was the June 16 and Edward was saying goodbye to his girlfriend for the summer, he and his family were going on vacation to Mr. Cullen's home in London. This meant Edward wouldn't really be able to talk to Bella very much. "I'll be home soon okay Bells." Edward said hugging his love close "I'll be home before you know it."
Bella hugged him close trying to hide the tears. "I'll miss you baby." Bella whispered, "Let me say goodbye to your sister then I'll come sit with you till you have to leave." Edward nodded and Bella walked out of his room and into her best friend's room. "Hey Alicatt.." The words barely escaped her mouth when the tears started to fall quickly.
Alice quickly engulfed her best friend in her arms. "Shhh, It'll Be okay, no matter what happens over the summer just know, things will go back to normal. It'll be okay Belle, Shhh…" Deep down Alice knew something big was going to separate everyone and there wasn't anything she could really do… All she could even do is warn her anyway she could. "NO matter what Bells Remember I will always be there at a drop of a problem…Okay?"
Bella's tear strain eyes looked up at her best friend and nodded...
That night was the hardest night of Bella's life. She felt like it wasn't just a goodbye for the summer she felt like it was more than that.
July 13th
Bella had just finished her shift at the mall and was finally home. She did her normal routine cooked herself dinner, emailed Emmett, Rosaline, and the Cullens, showered then walked up to her bed, and once in bed she always tried to get ahold of Edward and it was the same thing each time this number your trying to reach has been disconnected. Sighing she closed her eyes.
A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
July 13th 3:30 am
Bella was in peaceful heaven in her mind until a phone goes off. Awoken from a peaceful dream she realizes it's her phone. Not sure who it is she answers anyway. "Hello?"
"Bella? It's Billy Black your dad's partner, I need you to come down to Pomona Vally Hospital right away."
Bella could hear the sadness in her uncle's voice. "Billy whats going on?"
"Isabella please just come!" he hangs up the phone
Bella grabs her keys and her wallet and runs to her truck and races down to the hospital. Her heart barely keeping a steady beat.
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face
I'm here without you, baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you, baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you, baby
Pulling up to the hospital Bella feared the worst. She met her uncle at the front and from her her uncle's face she knew the truth. "No…No…NO!" Tears filled her eyes, and poured down her face. She hit his chest in angry rage "Don't you dare tell me he's gone! Noooo!" She slowly fell to the ground in a flood of her own tears.
"I'm so sorry Bells," Billy engulfed her into a tight caring hug. "We tried, to save him…The gunmen shot him to close to his heart…I'm so sorry Bells, We called Emmett. He'll be here as soon as he can, we couldn't get ahold of the Hales, but Rose is going to fight tooth and nail to get Jasper home from Austraila."
She didn't care about any of that all she cared about was the fact that her father was dead, her mother was gone, her brother wasn't here, her second family couldn't be reached, worst of all she needed Edward now…
July 19th
Bella sat in her room avoiding leaving it, afraid that once she did she'd have to be faced with the fact that her father was really gone. Emmett true to his word came on the next flight back to California with Rose, Jasper finally got back to us ten hours after Emmett and Rose got home, the Hales got back from Mr. Hales business trip to Japan yesterday, but none of that mattered…Her father was still dead. "Bells?" She turned to see Jasper at her door. "Mind if I come in?" Bella shook her head softly. "Alice flew down for the funerial, Mrs. Cullen is still trying to get ahold of Edward, His grandfather took him on a trip to Brazil and they cant seem to…"
"I don't care Jasper… I don't care anymore…His phone is disconnected, he wont return my emails, god he has even been on Facebook since a week after he left... I need him Jazz, I need him here, to get me through losing my dad… He said he'd be there for me. He promised jazz" Tears flew at a rapid pace down her face, her heart in shambles, her head is spinning… "How'd you find Alice?"
"I had a lay over in London and I knew you'd need them, so I went looking everywhere…I found Alice and her parents, and explained to them what had happened, Carlisle paid for a privete plane to get us here faster…Carlisle is going to Brazil after the funeral to find Edward, they think his phone is broken so they'll try to go through the credit cards and such, Bells he will come back…I won't stop till we find him." Bella shook shook her head.
"I'm leaving after the funeral with Emmett and Rose, I'm going to go live with them, and never want to hear from or about Edward Cullen… I will never forgive him, he could've stayed in contact with me when he left for London, he could've told me what was happening…I-I will still talk to Ali but only if she never tells Edward where I am." Bella wasn't sure what was the reason Edward fell off the Earth but she didn't really care. "I need to finish getting ready do you think you can help me pack before you go back to london with Alice and the Cullens." He nodded and exited the room.
July 23rd
It hadn't taken them much time do all the cleaning up of the house. Bella stayed quiet most the time and everyone was beyond worried about her. Today was finally the last day in this town, she was going back to New York with her brother and future sister in law. "Bells I'll be a call/ plane ride away from you if you need me okay?" She nodded and hugged her two best friends tight trying to hold in the tears that treaten to fall. "We love you Bellycakes…" Alice whispered holding Bella close.
She waved goodbye as they got on Carlisle privete plane, the Cullen and Hale families hadn't left Bella's side since they arrived back into town. Carlisle and Esme left the day after the funeral to look for Edward hoping he'd return to Bella's side, but knew Bella couldn't be around after feeling abandon when she needed him the most, they promised not to tell their son where Bella would be hiding out for a few years. The Hales bought Bella her own apartment down the street from where Rose and Emmett were and promised they'd pay for all her things as long as she promised to never give up her dreams.
August 13th London: Jasper's POV
As I laid here with my love I couldn't help but feel guilty that I was here with Alice and my best friend was alone sad somewhere. We really haven't talked since I left to come here with Alice. My parents moved away from Clarmont because of the painful memory of Charlie not being there anymore, so my dad is paying for me to go to school here in London with Alice. "Do you think Bella will be okay Jazz?"
I shrugged, "honestly Ali, She'll get through it, but as for her being okay…no I don't think she will be. She lost her mom, Edward and now her dad, she's feeling abandoned. I talk to my sister last night she says they haven't seen much of Bella in awhile, She only goes to work now, and goes to the studio and sings, Emmett is worried, I'm going to fly down for her birthday next month, I'd love if—"
I heard the door open and a few voices come closer to the living room. "Edward I'm very proud of you, I cannot wait to see the movie at the festival…" Son of a bitch that asswhole has been filming a movie.
"Jaz don't.."
Ignoring her plea I walked into the other room and could see the shock on Edward's face "What are you doing here Jasper?"
"What em I doing here, where the hell have you been? Your sister and your parents have been searching for you! Fuck my parents have been looking for you! And now you waltz in here like its nothing, do you have any idea what you've done?!" I couldn't contain my anger. "I warned you Edward, that Bella's heart was fragile but you didn't listen you fucking left!"
"What the hell are you talking about Jasper whats going on!" I couldn't take it I punched him square in is stomach, I did this a few times.
Alice grabbed me and held me back, "Jasper please for me stop, this wont bring him back please stop!" She started to cry which made me cry and hold her close… "Jasper please don't do this to me…" I started to cry hard holding her close. She was my savor, I needed her more than ever now. "Don't you dare leave Edward, I'll deal with you in a minute. Come on Jaz go to our room please, I'll be right there," I shook my head and held her tighter.
"Alice what is going on?!" Edward growled I could tell he was getting mad we weren't telling him what was wrong. "Why did Jasper attack me? Who isn't coming back? What the fuck is going on here?"
Alice looked at her brother with tears flowing down her face, "Charlie died a month ago…" Edward looked at his sister and I like we were crazy. "He was killed in the line of duty, and the only person Bella needed was you, and you wouldn't pick up your phone, you wouldn't answer my phone calls, emails, we needed you Edward…"
"Where is Bella?" when neither of us spoke he growled and yelled at us once again "WHERE IS BELLA!"
"She doesn't want to talk to you, she left… we haven't talkin to her since the funeral, have you even talked to your parents?" I knew where she was but I wasn't going to tell him shit. "You broke my best friend, and you better pray Emmett doesn't find you…" I pulled Alice away from her brother who at this point had fallin to the ground in tears.
This is probably the hardest Chapter I have written. I went through something simlar when my cousin passed away, so all the emotion that these characters went through is simlar to what i dealt with after her death, So i hope you understand this chapter was probably one of the hardest to write...The song is Here without you by 3 doors down
