Chapter 3
Vanessa's POV
Jeff and I always used to listen to the same radio station every day. We loved the music on that station.
So maybe Jeff would be listening to it. I had to try. I would try anything to get him home.
I loved him.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I plastered a smile on my face, walking out of the house with Feefee following me.
The other Cullens were all inside gathered around… something.
I closed my eyes and listened in to what they were saying.
"Holly crap!" Rosalie whispered.
"What will we tell Jeff?" Alice asked.
"Nothing!" Bella said.
"We can't do that," Edward said. "If I were in his position-
Carlisle interrupted him. "I agree with Bella. We can't do that. If he heard her voice…
I zoned out the rest.
Vanessa!
They were talking about Vanessa. They just had to be.
I ran in there so fast that I took them all by surprise. "Jeff," Esme said. "You shouldn't-
"Let me hear it," I cut her off, sternly.
"Jeff?" the voice said on the radio. "I don't know if you can hear me right now… we always used to listen to this radio station together every morning so… I really wish… I just want you to come home." I close my eyes. Vanessa was sobbing. "Please Jeff! Please!"
I looked up at everyone else and felt my throat grow dry.
"I'm going home," I croaked out. "I'm going home to her."
I turned and walked out of the house, heading outside.
"No!" Bella yelled.
"Where's he going?" Emmett asked innocently.
Smack! "Emmett, you idiot!" Rosalie yelled.
"What'd I do?"
"You never pay attention!"
I ran as far as I could away from there before I just needed to stop and cry for a moment.
"Hey," a soft voice said.
It turned around to find Alice. "I thought you'd be Bella," I admitted.
"Bella doesn't have powers that can let her see the future. She couldn't see where you went to, now does she?"
I shook my head. "Alice. You don't have to worry about me. I'm having a horrible time here."
Alice's face fell. "I like you here," she said softly.
"Look," I said. "You guys are awesome. You're great. I just miss the love of my life; Vanessa."
"You can't go back to her. She wouldn't understand-
"And why not?"
"Look at yourself Jeff! You aren't you! You aren't a human anymore."
"Well I wish I was!"
"Jeff, think about it. You'll fall in love," Alice said softly. "Maybe it will be with a vampire! You two could live together for the rest of eternity!"
"No!" I nearly shouted. "Not unless it's Vanessa! And why the hell would I want to live for eternity? I don't want to live! I hate my life!"
"Jeff," Alice said so softly. Her voice was calm, but sad. "Please don't be sad. I know it's all going to be okay. I had a very blurry vision. You were happy… and hugging some girl. You said you loved her."
"Don't make stupid things up!" I warned.
"Jeff," Alice said softly. "You should talk to Edward. He knows what it's like. He thought he lost Bella."
"He tried to kill himself Alice," I reminded her.
Her eyes became sad and if she could she would be crying.
"I know," she whispered. "And it killed me." I looked away sharply. And Alice walked forwards. "It killed me because he had to go through it! It made me so sad! I thought I might have lost him and I love him so much."
Alice looked down and I turned away from her as an idea hit me.
If I couldn't have Vanessa… then what point was there to live?
I turned and ran away fast and Alice was smart enough not to follow.
I ran and ran with the wind for hours and I froze, realizing that my body had taken me somewhere besides where I was headed.
This wasn't Voultera, it was my old town.
I stood behind Vanessa's house and I knew that I had no choice but to go inside.
I had to see her.
I walked slowly around to the front of the house and sighed as I heard Vanessa turn in her sleep.
I could hear her deep and even breaths, her beautiful heartbeat.
I missed my heartbeat.
I slowly lifted myself up the side of the house and in through Vanessa's window. I climbed into her room and watched her take her deep and even breaths.
"Oh Vanessa," I whispered, sighing in relief.
Her beautiful curly brown hair was splayed around her. Her hand was rested on her face and he took a deep breath as she turned over abruptly.
"Jeff?" she whispered in her sleep. And then suddenly… her eyes snapped open, and something seemed to hit her. "Jeff!" she gasped.
Using my vampire speed I flew out the window and dropped to her front yard, sobbing.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Vanessa's POV
I rolled over in my bed and flicked the light on, my eyes roaming the room.
There was a faint sound coming from outside. It sounded like sobbing.
But it must have just been me.
He was gone.
But he had to be real.
