Chapter 6
Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't updated for AGES!! I have had so much on, first exams, then I got my first boyfriend (yay!) and so on, as well as having serious writers block :p But anyway, I am going to try to write another chapter even though it is probably not going to be great; but I promise the next one will; this is just to get me back into the story. Thanks though for all of your support; especially; , Anne Kingsmill, Edwardcullen1379 and Cullenluv01.
Bella POV
Previously;
I
kicked my legs into action. I was amazed at how fast I could run. All
I could see was green flashing past me as I ran; tree branches
caressed my body, rocks and undergrowth were softest velvet under my
new feet. I marvelled at how free I felt.
Edward's
beautiful honeyish scent had left a clear path through the woods.
Every now and again, the mouth-watering smell of human hikers would
cross my path, and it took all of my self-control not to break off to
hunt them down. But my hurt and anger were too strong, and it kept me
on track.
Before long his scent became more intense, so much that
I could make out where he had hesitated, or stopped to think, or
where he had increased his pace. In the far distance, I could make
out the shape of a beautiful cottage, white against the black night
sky, ivy creeping up the sides like long spiders legs. I slowed
slightly. It was clear that Edward's scent led straight to the
cottage. I wondered why Edward had gone to this strange place. What
had drawn him here? I approached the cottage cautiously, padding
lightly towards the walled garden to the side of the cottage, to
where Edward had gone. I could hear a murmured conversation, then a
breathy laugh. I pushed open a white Pickett fence which led to a
secluded garden. Rose bushes and beautiful red and white flowers
lined a stone path, leading to a well-crafted willowed shelter,
delicate looking pink flowers hanging decoratively from the willow.
Seated on the bamboo loveseat under the willow shelter, was Edward
with his arms wrapped around another woman. She had long glossy black
hair which fell in ringlets around her waist. A white flower was
pinned casually in her hair. She had a delicate face; huge eyes the
colour of butterscotch, a sharp, slightly pointed nose above full red
lips which contrasted beautifully against her pale coffee coloured
skin. But then they both leaned towards each other. As I in slow
motion, their lips touched. A gasp torn itself out of my throat
involuntarily. NO! That was not MY Edward sat on that bench… it
can't have been…! But it had been! I stepped forward, my mouth
opening automatically as I thought desperately of something to say. I
suddenly decided against it, so I turned quickly and ran.
I ran. And ran. And ran.
I
didn't care where I was heading, as long as I could get as far away
from…him...as
I possibly could. NO! I still could't believe that my Edward could
have done that to me…there must have been a reason… but he had
made no attempt to pull away… or even acknowledge me…
I
stopped. And only then did I realised where I was.
The airport.
I knew then what I had to do… wanted to do…
I walked to the ticket desk and quickly booked a one-way ticket to Volterra.
