BPOV:

I can't believe my luck. Why didn't Jasper and Alice tell me Edward worked here? We both stood there looking at each other like idiots. Someone's beeper finally broke the silence. Edward broke his gaze as he reached for his beeper.

"I'm sorry I have to go" Edward murmured and walked off.

"Well that went well…" I said sarcastically and walked in the opposite direction.

I got home went to my room and let the tears fall. Why did he have to work at that hospital? He is just as handsome as he was 10 years ago. I finally ran out of tears and woke up hours later to banging on my door. I looked at the clock and noticed it was 11:30PM. I had slept for 4 hours. I got up and answered it and noticed it was Alice.

"You look horrible" She said, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you that Edward worked there."

"Why didn't you guys tell me? I am a big girl. I can take care of myself."

"I know. We were going to but we didn't want you to not come because of one teeny reason." She said, "We missed you." She said with tears in her eyes.

"Don't cry Alice. I missed you too."

We both sat there hugging each other for a few minutes.

"You don't know how devastated we all were when you left" She said. "I never really hated you. I was just hurt that you had left us all without a proper goodbye."

"I know and I'm sorry for that. I knew Edward would try to stop me from going and I couldn't stand to see his face like that. I would have probably changed my mind about going." I said.

"That wouldn't have been a bad thing though" She said.

"I was young and Naïve back then Alice. If it happened to me now I would have probably made a different decision. Yeah medical school was hard but I was lonely going through it except I had my dad. I know now that Edward and I could have made it through it together and have happiness along the way but I was too stupid to realize it back then." I said with tears in my eyes.

We decided to have a girl's night out Wednesday night with Rosalie and we said our goodbyes. I looked at the clock and saw it was already 1AM and I had to work tomorrow night so I went to bed.

I woke up in a horrible mood because I only got 6 hours sleep, but I couldn't sleep anymore because my mind was on overdrive. I went into my kitchen and made a big pot of coffee because I would need it. I heard a knock on my door and went to get it. I was raising the glass to my lips when I answered the door and when I saw who was behind my door it slipped from my fingers and landed with a BANG on my linoleum floor.

"Ouch" "Hot hot hot…" I ran to the kitchen to get something to clean up the coffee mess.

Edward was yelling, "Are you okay, Bella?" Totally freaking out.

Let's just say it was a pretty bad morning….even with coffee...

After everything was pretty much back to normal we both sat on my couch waiting for someone to talk first. I finally broke the silence and said,

"How did you find out where I live?"

"I kind of asked someone…."

"Alice" I said knowingly.

"Yep, Alice" He said.

"So how are you?" I said.

"Cut the small talk Bella. You know why I'm here" He said not looking at me.

I slammed my coffee on the table and said, "No I don't think I do Edward."

"Why did you LEAVE like that?" Edward said.

"I told you why" I said.

"You are a horrible liar Bella, one day you were fine and then the next I find this letter addressed to me saying you were leaving and didn't want a relationship holding you back" He said.

"IT WAS THE TRUTH" I yelled.

"Well until you decide to tell me the ACTUAL truth I think I will let myself out" He said and left the apartment.

"BANG" the door slammed shut.

I don't want his relationship with his mother ruined so I can never tell him.

My phone rang and I got up to answer it. The phone said "ESME CULLEN"

"Hello?" I said.

"Bella! This is Esme I was wondering if we could possibly have breakfast together this morning?"

I looked at the clock and saw it was 8AM.

"Sure! That would be great." I replied.

"Okay I will see you in an hour at the diner next to the hospital? Is that alright?"

"Yes, that sounds great. See you then" We hung up and I got ready for the day.

55 minutes later, I parked at the diner near the hospital and Esme waved to me and walked over.

"Hey Bella" She said while giving me a hug.

"Hi Esme"

We got a table and sat down.

"I called you here because I want to tell Edward the real reason you left."

I chocked on my water and said, "What!"

"I'm going to tell Edward why you really left." She replied calmly.

"Why though?" I asked.

"He talked to me earlier this morning and said that he was going to go over to your apartment and find out the real reason you left. I knew you wouldn't tell the truth and I don't want this to tear you guys apart before you can even try to be civil again. He will forgive me….I hope."

"Esme it's your choice but family is more important than Ex-Girlfriends"

"I know, but I want him to be happy." She said.

"Okay Then" I said.

We finished our breakfast and she invited me to the family dinner that Friday night.

"I don't want to intrude" I said.

"Bella, you are family to all of us, please?"

"Only if things between Edward and I are civil by then" I laughed.

"Okay they will be Bella" she laughed.

We said goodbye and I went home and watched a movie until I fell asleep on the couch.

I woke up at 5:30PM and got ready to go to work.

A.N: Well that was the next chapter. REVIEW PLEASE :)
