Hi guys! I thought I would give you an EPOV, so you maybe get the story a little bit more.
it´s a pretty short one, but like I said, it´s just so you get it. His side of the story I mean ;)

so yeah, let´s read then! :)

EPOV

I watched her walk up the stairs and close her bedroom door. I sat back down on the sofa letting out a sigh. This wasn't suppose to happen, not like this.

When I had found that box on the attic back home, I thought this was my chance to meet her again. But it turned out different than what I had imagined. She didn't even recognize me!

What had happened to her?

Sure, my mom told me a little about her, how she had changed since we left, since her mother left. And that was years ago. But, yes, she seems so much better, she seems happy. And I'm glad that she is, that's all I ever wanted. I mean I was only five at the time, but I remember what I have been told through the years. And by that, maybe I shouldn't be surprise about Bella not recognize me, she was only six, but still.
But when I walked through that front door yesterday, I thought I saw a glimpse of recognizing. Like she actually saw that it was me.

I thought back on when Charlie found me;

I opened my eyes slowly, feeling the sting in my right eye, I shout them close fast again.

I tried again, slower this time. I looked around me, taking in the view. Where am I?

In an alley?

Oh, that's right, I was in a fight yesterday or was it today? But how did I end up here?

I remembered the night briefly, my head hurt a little. I remember Emmett, Jasper and I sign in on a hotel, or it wasn't like a hotel, not that fancy at all, more like a Bed and Breakfast, yes like a Bed and Breakfast. God, I hate those.

We were taking a road trip to our old hometown, well Emmetts and mine. Jasper is a long time friend from Seattle, born and raised there. Anyway, we were on our way to Forks but it got dark so we decided to sign us in on a hotel, in this case; an B&B.

But I was so eager to find her...

She was all I could think about since the day I helped my mother clean the attic, when I found the box with my childhood stuff. The little white bunny with a little blue outfit. It was from her. My mother told me, I got it on my fifth birthday from her and that I always carried it with me. When she told me the story about it, I remembered her…so I did what any kid would have done, I asked my mother more about her, where she is today, etc.

So one thing led to another, I decided to take a road trip with two of my best friends to find her again.

And maybe I was stupid leaving the room we were staying in and find her on my own…

I tried standing up, it went really good, nothing broken there, noted.

I heard a car coming closer, I looked up just as the, how was driving, stopped.

Shit, a cop.

"What are you doing here, kid? Isn't it over your bedtime?" the man said with a very dark and maybe a little old voice, if that makes sense.

"I'm…I…I don't know…" I stammered. Because really, I didn't know. I remember standing outside a dinner, and from the smell of it I could tell that I was now behind it.

And that's what I told the officer. That I was asking a guy for some direction and in the next second I was hit in the head and everything went black.

"What's your name, son?" the officer asked. His eyes in a little pad in his left hand and a pen in the other. Ready to write down the information, I guess.

"Edward, Edward Cullen."

He then looked up and had a weird look in his face like I had just slapped him. He looked at me as he recognized me. He then tilted his head and asked more to himself than to me.

"Cullen, huh?"

But I nodded anyways.

"Well, I don't know if you recognize me, son. But I'm Charlie Swan. I'm an old friend of your parents when they used to live here."

Swan? As in Bella Swan?

I look in to his eyes and had my answer; she had her father's eyes. Chocolate brown, just as I remember them.

"Yes, sir. I remember you."

"Well, what are you doing here, back in old charming Forks?" he smiled and added,
"and what on earth are you doing back here,
" he slapped out his hands to wave them around, to prove his point,and continued " with an black eye? Does it hurt?" he squeezed his eyes and looked a little closer.

"Actually…I was trying to find your daughter, Bella, sir." He blinked a little at that statement." And to answer your other question; I have absolutely no idea what I am doing back here. And no, it doesn't hurt, not much, really." I smiled.

"You are here to see Bella?"

"Yes, sir."

"Well, that was a surprise" he muttered to himself. He quickly looked up and smiled.

"You look good, kid. except for the black eye. Are the whole family in town?"

"Uhm, no. It's just me and my big brother Emmett and a friend of us. You remember Emmett?" I asked.

"Oh yes , of course." He said and laughed a little.

I laughed along with him.

But the laughter soon died out and his face turned serious.

"Where are you staying, then?"

"At a small B&B by the highway."

"I hate B&B´s."

"I couldn't agree with you more." I laughed.

"You should stay with us, Edward. And you will be seeing Bella a lot more if you did."

I smiled at the idea. Being in Bella's house after so many years. But then I remember my brother and Jasper.

"I don't know, sir. I don't even think my brother knows I'm here. I should really call him. Do you have a cell phone, I can barrow?"

"Of course, son. Here you go." He gave me an old phone, that looked more like a brick than a cell phone. I turned and walked a few step, so I could talk in privately, I then quickly pushed in the number to our room and after only just a few tons Emmett picked up.

"Edward?"

"Yes, Emmett, it's me."

"Oh, thank god. Where the hell have you been, dude? When I got out of the shower you were gone and Jasper said you were just down in the dining hall. But when I got down there to get you, you weren't even there! I almost panicked, man! And after that, all I could think was what to tell mom. That I lost my baby brother in a town, you probably don't even remember! I mean…"

I couldn't take his ramblings any more so I shouted his name in to the phone,

"EMMETT!"

That silenced him, because it got really quiet on the other end of the phone.

"Geez, dude. Want to make me deaf much?" he laughed a little.

"Sorry, but you wouldn't stop talking."

"Well, you know how I am under pressure, little brother."

"Look," I said and took a deep breath and told him all about the night. All from the fight to the police chief Swan.

"Shit, man. Are you sure it's him?" he asked after a few minutes of silent.

"Of course I'm sure. I mean how many has Swan as their last name here in Forks? They all have to be related, right?" I chuckled little to that.

"Yeah, probably. So are you going to stay with them? It will spare you some time."

"Yes, I think I will. Is it okay with you guys?"

"Dude, you don't even have to ask. This is why we drove down here for. Go get her, tiger!"

I laughed and said my goodbyes I then turned around and walked back to Charlie.

"Mr Swan?"

He looked up at me,

"Yes?"

"I would like to take you up on your offer."

He smiled and led me to the car.

I smiled a little to the memory. He had asked me halfway through the ride why I was here and I had told him everything; the attic, the box, the bunny, the story my mother told me. I remember how he just nodded as I talked, but when I told him about the story mom told me, he flinched a little, as to a bad memory.

I heard a door slam upstairs. I guessed it was the bathroom door because after a few moments I heard it again and then another door, which has to be Bella's bedrooms door close.

I lay back on the sofa, pulled the blanket up to my chest then placed my arms back behind my head.

I began thinking about when I first saw her yesterday after twelve years apart;

I followed Charlie up the stairs at the porch. I took in the house, and saw that it looked exactly as in the photo at home with us all there; my mom and dad, Emmett and me. Charlie and Renee, Bella's long gone mother, and of course Bella.

He opened the front door, and we heard some noise from the kitchen along with a voice saying;

"Hi dad. How was work?"

Charlie turned to look at me and smiled, I returned it. He then muttered something like,

"Hmm, well, it was interesting…"

She then appeared before me and, shit…

It looked like she was checking me out and when she then met my eyes I saw that they were exactly the same. All of her looked practically the same, but her hair was a little longer and her body was about to turn very female. Under her black top you could see the curve of her hips. I had to smile and I heard her gasp.

I smiled. She really was beautiful. She always has been, I guess. And this afternoon had been great, more than great actually, it was perfect. She told me what Charlie had said to her, and I was a little bit relief to hear that he hadn't told her everything.
We then made dinner, my favourite, lasagna. In my mom's recipe. She told me it was disgusting to ad coconut milk in the sauce but I saw he eyes spark when we ate, she liked it.

I chuckled at the memory but the chuckle turn into a yawned and I closed my eyes. It wasn't many moments later that I fell into to a dreamless sleep.

that´s chapter 4!
please review, it would mean a lot! please, please, please? :D
