Chapter 7:
Bella's POV
It's been 4 days since I last saw Edward. Which made me both happy and sad. I hope now he is being faithful to Alice. I'm sure she deserves better than to be cheated on. Another part of me wanted him to have some kind of contact with me. I missed him, which is crazy I've only known him for four days, I think I might have fallen in love with him.
He made me happy in that little time that he was in my house. We laughed, played together, I even slept in his arms. And it was the best sleep I have ever had. It was also the last time I had a really slept. Every night I have nightmare about Alice and Edward, they were married with three beautiful children together. I woke up crying. It's so not fair, everyone I love leaves me.
I decided to right Esme a letter to apologize and let her know I can no longer work with her. I hate losing Esme over this, but I know every time I near her I'll think about Edward. It's like he came my whole universe. I set at the kitchen table and write her a small letter.
Dear, Esme,
I'm extremely sorry for my sudden departure that last time we were together. Clearly I shouldn't have let my emotions get the better of me. It pains me to say this but I can no longer work with you. I will always love you, you have been a better than mother my own mother. I hope one I will be able to be a half as good as a mother as you. But that doesn't look like it is going to happen. I probably just spend the rest of my days alone. I appreciate everything you have done for me, you treated me like I was you own. So thank you. I included a check in this envelope to help with any upcoming projects that new funding.
Sincerely, Bella Swan
"Oreo, let's go for a ride." I yell. I know he is here somewhere. I pick my keys up and jiggled them that drive him crazy. We ran to the garage door, surprisingly enough I didn't trip. I open the back door to my 2002 Cadillac Escalade to let him get in. When your baby is only 2 years old and he is of seven feet tall on his hind legs, you need a big car. That's only reason why I bought it.
Once Oreo was in the car, I ran around the front of the car and got behind the wheel. After opening the garage door, I back out and head to the post office. Looking in my rearview mirror, I see a canary yellow Porsche behind me. I have never seen one in that color before.
At the post office I decide to just drop it in the outgoing box. Looking in the rearview mirror, I see that same yellow Porsche. Still feeling down about myself for losing Edward I decide to go to Wal-Mart to get the help of my two favorite men.
I park as close to the door as could get. I crack all the windows for Oreo since he is too big to go in the store. "Be a good boy," I said, rubbing his head before getting out of the car. Walking into the store, I quickly grab a cart and walk over to the freezer aisle.
Finding the ice cream aisle, there they are my two favorite men; Ben and Jerry. They are always there with me when I'm not feeling that well. In my peripheral vision I see and small pixie like woman. She is very petite, she couldn't be any taller than five foot. Her short dark hair is framing her beautiful face. I could tell by her outfit that she had money. I also noticed she was holding hands with a tall blonde man. His golden locks were all the way down to his shoulders. Clearly he was handsome, but nowhere near as handsome at my Edward. My Edward? He is not my Edward, he is Alice's Edward. I chastised myself. Ignoring them I reach in the freezer and grab a pint of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. It save me from buying cookie dough too, why not kill two birds with one stone?
"Wow, she's beautiful." I heard the pixie-like woman whisper to the blonde man.
We were the only three people on the on the aisle, I know she was talking about me.
"She is," He said back to her.
"She is perfect, I can feel it." The pixie woman said.
Perfect for what? I hope I mean really hope that are not about to proposition me. They are both beautiful but I not into threesomes. Plus the only person I want to see me naked in Edward, but has Alice. I hated to even think her name. I drop the ice in the cart, I stop on the pet aisle and got Oreo some beggin' strips; it's his favorite. I notice that pixie and blondie are still following me. Rushing to check out, and get out of the store as soon as possible.
In the parking lot, I see that same yellow Porsche parked right next to mine. In the car, I speed out of the parking lot. I don't want them to follow me home.
Pulling up to the security gate outside my I warn the guy, I think his name is Demetri. I tell him, he told me to stay in the house and only go out in emergency and to make sure I tell someone at the security gate before I leave.
Pulling in to the driveway, I run into the house leaving Oreo in the car. I come back out, to get him out of the car. We will take our walk now so we can, pig out later.
Already know how my night is going to go, me cried into Oreo's fur.
