Chapter Six
Memories and Smiles
(Normal POV)
Bella slowly walked out of the car and into the house, her mind racing on what Rosalie will do with her face inside. Thinking of Rosalie's first experience with make-up, her stomach began to hurt. Just then, an image popped into her head. It was of Rosalie when she was eight or nine. Focusing on the picture, colors swam around her. She felt a tingle in her legs. Lights, sounds, wave upon wave of sickness rang through, her ears were ringing. And then, it stopped. She was in Rosalie's memory…
(RPOV)
I was just walking in the house, dropping the bags in my room and I felt as though something was in my mind. Something like, tugging, but only smaller and not at all comfortable. It was like…remembering something from long ago. You know how you are remembering something and the memory just plays itself like a soundless movie? Well it was just like it. Even the light brown color! I fell onto my bed and just watched my memory play.
I kinda remember this. It was for my eighth birthday. My mom made me wear this pink frilly dress that went all the way up to my neck and all the way down to my toes. The only thing showing was my head and my white shoes. My hair was up in a painful knot right on top of my head with a flower crown around the bun and I had a pearl necklace on too. Needless to say; I looked like a pink angel.
Suddenly, my mother came into my room. Many people said that I looked like a smaller double of my mother back then. They were right. My mom had long blonde hair all the way down to her waist (in a bun of course) and had a very slender neck and was in a powder blue dress that matched her eyes. She was quite tall, too. She was tall enough so that her head was just two feet below the door frame. With the heels.
"Hurry up, my darling. The guests are almost here! Oh darling! You look splendid! Just like me when I was younger!" She said while clapping her hands together.
"Thank you, Mother."
"Yes well, thank your father for buying you that dress! We only have half of the money we used to have."
"Yes Mother. I will thank him once I lay my eyes on Papa. I am sorry that I made you spend so much on me." I said not looking directly into her eyes.
"Oh, nonsense! You should not concern yourself over it. Today is your big day! You are now eight! And since you're eight, you are going to get your first experience with…..MAKE-UP!" My mother squealed. My thoughts were running wild in my eight year old mind. I knew exactly what they were saying. Make-up? Why make-up? Why couldn't it be something else? Like new shoes?
"Make-up, mother?" God, I could even hear my voice dripping in fear.
"Yes dear, make-up."
We spent fifteen minutes just getting my mascara and lipstick on. My cheeks were naturally pink and the dress brought out the color. My eyelids were dyed to the same shade of blue as my eyes, only slightly lighter. And all the while my mind was screaming "Oh heavens! I hate make-up!" Hmmm…I thought to myself. Maybe that's how Bella feels about make-up…? Just as the thought passed my mind, the colors around me melted and the more vibrant colors came into view.
"So, Bella was looking into my memory again." I mused to myself. Standing up, I started pulling out our clothes from the bags. When I got to the last bag I hesitated. I knew what was inside. Make-up. I ran to my door, pulled it open, and looked to see if Bella was around. No one in sight! Perfect! I will get her in her room when she least expects it! Oh, Bella! You're in for the ride of your existence!
(BPOV)
My mind reeled back into its proper spot in my head. I felt so dizzy. Who knew the side effects to memory surfing was nausea? And happen to a vampire? Ha ha! Ooooh….note to self: don't laugh after looking into peoples memories…Walking upstairs, I heard Rosalie laugh manically. Something in the back of my mind told me to stay awake and out of my room, but, knowing me with my tendencies with following warnings, I went into my room (formerly Edward's), grabbed my favorite CD and headset, cranked up the volume, and rested my eyes.
I was having a lovely daydream. Edward and I were in our meadow, resting on the ground by the small stream. His hand in mine, we looked up into the sky.
"Edward?" I asked kindly.
"Yes, my dear Bella?" He replied.
"Why did you leave me?" I asked, looking into his caramel eyes. He tried to look away but it seemed as if he was hypnotized by me. I knew if I were human I would be blushing furiously.
"I thought it would be for the best?" He nodded.
"Yes…I thought I was protecting you. Saving you. I thought you would have done the same for me…" Edward said, finally looking down. A small smile appeared on his face. I wondered what he was smiling at, so I looked down too. A smile spread across my face. The sun was hitting our hands in the right way so it looked like we had a hallo over our fingers, our hands showed like sparkling snow with the lightest touch of blue and a wider smiled took form. You're probably thinking: "A wider smile? Don't you mean grin?" But, no. I don't mean it. Now then, think like this; you are just thinking about your crush or your perfect day or something on the lines of that. And you feel inside like nothing can ruin the moment and you look into a mirror and there's that smile. A smile that just means that you're happy and content at the same time. You are just in the mood and ready for anything, bad or good, and that smile will not disappear.
My gold eyes rested on my love's and everything past in that moment. Fear, hate, confusion, laughter, smiles and love. Fear, that we would not get together. Hate, for the things we did to each other. Confused, for what we just said. Laughter, for our stupid expressions and our own stupidity. Love, for the fact that we will never be able to smile like this without each other.
"This is the best daydream I've had yet." I sighed. Edward shook his head.
"Bella, you're not daydreaming. This is real…or at least to me." He said.
"Edward, this can't be real. You are not with me and home, you are not holding my hand, you never say things like you do here; we are never open like this. So tell me, Edward. Is this real or is my mind coming to the fact that the only way I can see you is by daydreaming?" I said, my voice rising by every sentence.
"I…I don't know if we or I am daydreaming." He said sadly.
"Well-wait…You don't know if you OR I are daydreaming? Edward! That is not possible! You and I can't be having the same daydream!" I shouted, appalled.
"But there are people who have the same dream." He said in the matter-of-fact tone.
"When their DREAMING and SLEEPING!" I yelled.
"Bella, calm down." Edward sighed.
"We can figure this out." But I cut him off half way through.
"NO WE CAN'T! We CAN'T be having the same daydream for we are still CONSCIOUS! And you are not with me, you are somewhere ELSE!" I yelled, dropping (more like throwing) his hand.
"You are NOT here! My mind is only thinking about you because of the energy drain I had earlier! I can't be with you! You LEFT ME! YOU DON'T WANT ME! I AM NOTHING TO YOU! I HATE YOU EDWARD! WHY DO YOU HAUNT ME EVERYWHERE?!" I said now in hysterics.
"Bella, please calm down! You have to stop!" Edward said with more dread than ever before.
"NO! I HAVE TO STOP THIS! I HAVE TO GET YOU OUT OF MY MIND!" I screamed clutching my head.
"Bella! No! Don't! I don't want it to end!" Edward said. I didn't know it was possible, but, as usual, Edward did it. His voice dripped with dread, fear, love and finally, deadness. He sounded like a robot programmed to feel and sound every emotion. But like all robots, he couldn't feel it for real. Like he was just a shell of nothing. No venom, no breath. Nothing.
His voice caught me off guard. I turned slowly and looked at him in the eyes for the third time. His eyes were mirroring his voice and it was like my heart was tearing all over again. With what I swear where tears I opened my mouth.
"Then why did you leave me?" I said with sorrow.
"Bella!" Edward shouted. But it was too late. My daydream melted in front of me, disappearing from my mind. And Edward along with it.
(EPOV)
I opened my eyes with a start. I daydreamed about my Bella. My true love. She yelled and screamed and shouted at me. And what she shouted was a hundred percent true. I was not there with her, I was not truly holding her hand, and I was never open like that. Just a silly daydream about someone that will never take me back. Thinking that, a sense of dread washed over me.
"Are you alright, Edward?" asked Jasper, coming down from the hills. We were just below the Rockies. Not as far as you'd think but still. Our next stop was supposed to be Canada, but something in me couldn't go over the border. Remembering Jasper was there, I turned back to him.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just having a silly daydream." I said shaking my head. Jasper nodded.
"Are you sure you don't want to head back now? I'm sure Bella would be willing to at least talk with you…?" Jasper suggested. I shook my head again.
"No, I don't want to go back…at least not yet…" I said looking at my feet.
"So, now we've gotten some improvement out of ya." Jasper elbowed me. Smiling weakly, I nodded. We sobered a bit. At least, Jasper did.
"When do you think you will be able to go back?" He asked me.
"Hmmm…" I never thought when, just how to come back. I'd never thought that I would go back, but that daydream…
"Tonight."
So how did ya like it? A bit dramatic, I think, but hey! So I've thought about it. I am gonna give a vote out to ya. If you like these previews, say yes to #1 or #2. Or yes to both and I will somehow put them together.
1st :
"Edward? What are you doing here?" Bella asked over the thumping music.
"I had to see you. Please let me talk to you!" Edward replied. She sighed.
"Fine, but you got ten minutes." She said nodding to her dance partner. As soon as he let go of her, Edward grabbed her hand and ran out the nearest exit.
2nd :
"Edward? What are you doing here?" Bella asked over the thumping music.
"I had to see you. Please let me talk to you!" Edward replied. She sighed.
"No Edward. You had your chance. But I will make you a deal." Bella said, walking slowly towards him, forgetting her dance partner. Edward nodded.
"If you wanna talk…you gotta catch me first." She said. Edward opened his mouth to ask why, but Bella was already out the nearest exit.
Good? Again, if you like the 1st one say, "YES #1 ALL THE WAY!" or something like that. And same for the 2nd. And if you don't like either, send me an e-mail (profile) with your idea! So Review and press that purple-ish button as soon as it says next chapter!
