"What am I supposed to do?" I asked Carlisle.

I had explained everything to him about Bella. He remembered her and at first he even smiled when I spoke of her.

"Edward..." Carlisled paused for a moment. "We might have to leave."

"No!" I gasped. Carlisle looked a little confused. "I mean... I don't really know why I just did that."

"Do you not want to leave Bella?"

"What? No! I hardly know her!"

Carlisle didn't by it. "Well if you'll excuse me, I am taking Esme out to see a movie. Don't wait up. You're bed time is eleven thirty," Carlisle joked, standing up.

I rolled my eyes while he chuckled. "Not funny!"


"Daddy?" I whispered, walking into the kitchen.

He was holding two suitcases and frowning sadly.

"Bella, darling. What are you doing up?"

"Where are you going?" I asked him.

"I have to leave."

"Why?"

He hesitated for a moment before answering. "It's comlicated."

"You're leaving us?"

"No... I mean... I'm sorry sweety. I just... I have to go. But I'll call you."

"No!" I gasped. "How can you do this to me?"

"I don't want to have to-

"Then why?"

"Bella-

"Daddy! please don't go."

He shook his head, quickly kissing the top of my head and then turning towards the door.

"Dad!" I cried. "Daddy! Don't go!"

I felt arms wrap around me from behind and hold me back while I watched him leave the house.

"Let me go! Please!" I cried.

"Bella," a voice whispered gently, shaking me. "Bella."

My eyes shot open and I gasped as the darkness filled my eyes. I saw Charlie standing there, watching me with concerned eyes.

"Daddy," I whispered, not even realizing what I was saying.

And then reality hit. This wasn't a dream anymore. I quickly shook it away.

"Charlie!" I gasped. "What are you doing in my room? Knock much?"

Charlie sighed, looking at the gorund. "Bella, you were having a nightmare. I heard you screaming. I came to wake you up."

"Well I'm awake! You can leave now!" I growled.

Charlie sighed and turned around, leaving the room and slamming the door on his way out.

Was her angry?

I shook away the thought. So what if he was angry? Who cares!

I rolled over and closed my eyes, quickly falling back to sleep.

The next dream I had was about Edward. I was chasing after him, but he just grew further and further away.

I woke up again gasping later that night, and to my surprise I thought I saw something in my room.

I quickly turned on my light and turned back. But no one was there.

I had walked to her house and stood outside when I heard her calling my name.

I froze for a moment until I realized that she was sleeping and then I climbed up through her window.

She was laying there, tossing and turning and still calling my name.

"Edward please!" she muttered. "Please! I love you!"

I froze.

She what?

She hardly knew me. Except for thw one time when she was five...

It all began to make sense.

I was the only one she would stop crying for. She didn't want to let go of me for a second.

But did I love her back? I didn't understand how that was really possible.

I was a vampire. She was a human. I was old enough to be her great granfather.

And yet... when I looked into her eyes...

There was a loud gasp from the other side of the room and I realized that Bella had awoken. I dissapeared through the window and saw the light flash on from inside her room.
