Chapter 7:Bella POV

What should I do they are walking right towards us, it's not like we can run away. Or can we? This is when I notice Rose and Alice slowly starting to back up towards the doors. I look back up at Edward and his eyes are so fierce I can't even move. I'm stuck to my spot as the girls retreat and the guys just keep getting closer.

"Now where do you two think you're going? Hmm." For once Emmett's voice isn't filled with joy and laughter. It doesn't suit him well. Rose gasps as she comes to a stop just a foot behind me. Alice squeaks and steps up so she's next to me again and grabs my hand.

"We were on our way home. What do you want?" The confidence in my statement made them believe I was under control but inside I was freaking out. This was the conversation I have been trying to avoid. I don't want to forgive them even though they have tried to show us they changed how could they expect us to forget that easily. It'll take time and they need to understand that.

"Bella, could we please talk, I think there is something we need to discuss." Oh, Edward, if you keep looking at me like that I might just flew. The look of sadness and heartbreak is killing me. I should be happy he feels that way though right? I wanted to make him feel all the pain and sorrow I did all those years of growing up.

"You have ten minutes." Rose spoke quietly but with much authority I had no choice but to agree. Her eyes told me all I needed, we might as well get this over with while we are here.

"Fine" I mumble and don't think he really heard me. He turns and waits for me to catch up with him before we walk back up the hallway they had just came from. About halfway I notice he is looking at me. At first it doesn't bother me but then I get this weird tingling feeling in the pit of my stomach. I turn my head so I'm facing him and stop walking. For a minute we just gaze at each other, having nothing to say. Then he speaks softly but I'm not completely focused and miss what he says so he repeats himself.

"I'm sorry Bella." Just those words made one of the many crackles in my heart start to heal itself. I believed him but I couldn't forgive him just yet, sorry just wasn't enough right now.

"I believe you but it will not fix what happened Edward. You just need to give me time to get used to being in Forks again. It's been too long and I haven't seen any of you for so long I'm just not used to it. I-I just need time." I couldn't believe what I confessed.

"I know, I just want you to know that I regret it all. I wish I could take it back, even though I know I can't." He lifted his hand to brush against my cheek but it was too much, I turned away from him and started to walk back to the girls until felt a hand gripping my wrist. I gasped softly as thoughts of the past rushed around me.

~Flashback~

Where you going Ugly Duckling I'm not done with you yet!

Tanya was screaming at me to go back as I tried to get away. My feet slipped out from under me and I was on the ground face first in mud. I felt to slimy hands holding my ankles and looked behind me to see the Hulk Emmett holding my feet down as Tanya came up to me and turned me to face her. She sat on top of me as she started to swing her claw-like fists towards my face. I raised my fists to hit her back until I felt to soft calloused hands take my wrists and pin them above my head.

I had no defenses left but to let her punch me. With each swing it stung worse until I started to blank out. I heard the laughter of Tanya and the weight of her coming off of me. It was quiet for a short while until I thought I heard mumbling.

Bella? Oh, my sweet Bella, what have I done now?

~End Flashback~

"Bella? Bella can you hear me? It's Alice. Bella?"

As my eyes started to open I felt the warmth of a hand running throw my hair and the cold floor beneath my legs. I blinked as I tried to focus on the face in front of me until I realized it was indeed Alice.

"What happened?" All I remember is I went to leave and Edward grabbed my wrist.

"Bella you fainted." What? That's crazy. I moved so I was sitting up and noticed Rose next to Alice Edward on her other side and Jasper and Emmett standing against the closet wall. They all had the same looks of confusion and concern, except Edward. He had a look of pain and sorrow that I wish I could just get rid of. He made a move to get up but I moved so I was right in front of him. With parts of the past still spinning in my mind I had to know what happened.

"Edward. I think we need to talk."
