Chapter 3

WITHOUT HER (part 1)

I get into the car and drive to my "house", left it in the garage and run faster than I ever had…

After that my life become the same, I run day and night, trying to escape to the infinite pain and misery inside of me until it catch me and I threw myself to the ground and let them have me…

Every time I close my eyes I saw her beautiful face, smiling at me, but then it changes to an extremely sad face and it made me scream and cry tear less-and actually louder than before- it feels like my dead heart was gone, that it lies with my love, and left a huge hole in my chest who make, if it is possible, more unbearable the pain.

Like two months has passed since I left my sweet Bella – I don't have idea how I know it, I just did, somehow…- I was running, as always, when I caught a familiar smell, I stop and inhaled at the top of my lungs, as I recognize the scent my view fill with a red undertone and my mind ran through memories... and not a pleasant ones.

They were about last spring, when I almost lost forever my Bella in the hands of James...-my breath become uneven at the thought, and the hollow flutter in my chest- and how his girl, Victoria had helped him. I really never thought as Victoria as a menace for Bella but she owe me allot, because she was the one who tell James how to find my love, how to threaten her; and she was the reason she almost died…I suddenly felt an unbelievable rage and ran, following the scent…I will kill her with my own hands, piece by piece and with the greatest pain possible.

I followed the trail for almost ten miles when it ended abruptly, I look both sides of the road and find nothing but a tires trail that lead me to a sort of town, very small one with just a few people.

"What a weird young man… come on baby, don't look at him…I hope he won't stay for long… eww, he's scary…" the people around beginning to think- it was so long since I don't hear others thoughts…- worry about my clothing all mess up and dirt and my wild rage features the best I could because the deep pain still there, when I realize about this I rearrange my features to a most polite expression and look around, sniffing, testing the air, trying to find her. There was a faint trail of her but nothing resent, it was like three weeks ago…

-Can I help you?-"he seems so sad, I hope he's alright" ask me a girl that won't be more than 13 years old at my back. I turn around to face her.

-Mmm… maybe…-how to ask her…-have you seen a woman allot like me, pale, white skin, with red hair…-as I describe Victoria, the little girl become to shudder and a picture of Victoria came to her mind, and there was also fear, a lot of fear

- Yes, she being here like a month ago, she was weird and scary, and like a four part of the town suddenly disappeared… it was awful…- she said to me in a shaky voice- But since she's gone, everything become normal… well, almost normal- and she looks around. When I did it too, the few people I saw had disappeared and there was only five men with guns in their hands, and of course this little girl- are you here to hurt us?-now there was fear in her eyes.

- No, of course not- I heard a sigh of relieve in their heads- actually I'm following her to take her…-I hesitated, looking for the right word, of course they wouldn't notice-prison-I thought it was the best one- she ran out there six months ago and she's very dangerous- the girl was about to tell me something when a man walk through us- I can tell you all what you want, why we don't get into my house?, and by the way, I'm John and this is my daughter Bella- and put his arm around the shoulders of the girl. I contain the causing pain of the name and nodded.

I follow them to the farthest house and we walk in. There was a beautiful woman with a baby in her arms, mumbling a lullaby, and I couldn't avoid imagine my Bella like that, with a child of mine in her arms, on a rocking chair, always smiling; at first, this thought made me smile, but then I realize that this was never going to happen for two very good reasons: first, I leave her, I left my beautiful girl behind me; and second because I couldn't have children, I wasn't human, there wasn't that possibility for me. This thought made so sad that I could have cried. This happen so fast that they don't even realizes.

She lifts her head and meets my gaze, the fear in her face and in her thought were out of discussion, she held close her baby and walk backwards. John, her husband almost run to her and hugged her close.

-Don't worry Mary, he won't hurt us darling- he comfort his wife and make me want Bella's back, to comfort and care her; this was beyond what is bearable, but then, the image of Victoria's face came through my mind and I recover myself- He's here to find that evil woman. Please, don't be afraid-She calm down and sit back on the couch but still holding tight the baby.

-Please, sit down, do you like something to drink or eat? - John asks politely.

- No, thanks, I'm actually in a hurry; I hope you don't mind.

-Of course not, what would you like to know?

-Well, I would like to know how long she was here.

-Three weeks for now.

-Does she have some kind of company?

-No, but… well, maybe. She talks allot by phone-and I saw what he minds. I saw Victoria interrupting in their house violently grab the phone and talk fiercely with some one- but we never knew with whom. Sorry.

-Don't be. Do you know where she goes then?

-I think so; she said something about going the south, Texas I think…

-Well, thank you very much, that's very useful. Take care of you and if she appears around here again, please, call me- and I give them my cell number- Thank you again.

- Your welcome, and don't worry, if I saw her I will call you mister…

-Edward, Edward Cullen- and we shake hands. He walks me through the door and when I was out of sight I started to run to the nearest city. But first I need to hunt; it was over a month since the last time I did it and can't allow myself to be surrounded by humans and thirsty.
