Song -
No air by Jordan sparks
This song is really amazing and totally inspired me to write bella's point of view from chapter eight.
B.P.o.V.
May 6th
I couldn't believe the week I had been having, I was so swamped in work, We had recently recieved a flow of orders, and bad enough monday I was suppose to meet with some new client. I didn't hear his name from anyone. Appparently Tanya was keeping it a secret. I hated working for her, but it's not like I had a real choice. It was saturday and I finally had a day off. I hadn't bothered checking my eharmony profile. To be honest I just really didn't want to. I think I was too afraid to get any messages. But Alice seemed to plead and beg for me to try and be happy once more. I don't think she ever really believed that I forgave her for suggesting setting me up with James. To be honest, it wasn't her fault to begin with. I took the blame alone. Though Alice said she could make it up to me in many ways in the future.
She'd been doing just that, she's truely an angel. I let out a soft sigh as I relaxed in my apartment's sofa. I had recently rented out a much better looking apartment compared to the wreck I had lived in for a long time. It was time for a change. It was a nice single bedroom apartment with enough space to throw a small party. It was nicely decorated thanks to Alice and Rosalie. I glanced at my laptop and gave in. I didn't bother to check my messages, it said I have four. How could I have four messages from people with the boring profile I have. I don't even have any information about myself on there. Let alone it was purely dull and I have no profile pictures.
People sure are strange. I barely signed in and received an instant message from some person that had added me to their friend's list i guess. I glanced at the username and thought nothing of it. It didn't ring a single bell, I could only assume the Vanquish was some car cause driver was right next to that word. I let out a sigh, I had never been good with car names. I'm even surprised I still remembered the car that he drove.
Vanquish.Driver: Hello?
ClairDeLune: Yes.. ?
Vanquish.Driver: How are you doing today?
ClairDeLune: Fine, yourself?
I had quickly typed yes as a state of question instead of a statement, I didn't want to come off rude. Though I quickly checked my messages and read his. I didn't even bother looking at the name, I just wanted to read the simple line he had wrote. I don't know what this stranger found interesting about me, but I quickly closed the message and typed with haste.
ClairDeLune: Oh, I just read your message, I'm not really all that interesting.
Vanquish.Driver: My day was looking a bit down until you signed in.
ClairDeLune: Oh stop, your gonna make me blush.
Vanquish.Driver: Your last name wouldn't happen to be Swan would it?
I paused right there, once he asked about my last name. Panic shot through my system. What if this guy was some crazy psycho sent from James to finish what he had started?! If I remembered correctly Vanquish wasn't exactly the nicest word in the dictionary. I typed after a couple of thoughts and hit send. But before he could finish whatever he was typing, I signed off. It wasn't just because of the fear that I felt...It was because I heard a knock on the door.
ClairDeLune: ... How did you know my last name? Are you stalking me?...
Vanquish.Driver: No, no, not at all, it's just that I knew a girl named Isabella Swan and I don't think it's a common name...So I was just wondering if-
ClairDeLune has signed off.
After I closed my laptop, I walked over to the door to see someone I hadn't seen in a while. It was Jacob, I smiled lightly and then opened the door. He crushed me a bit with his hug and once I said I couldn't breathe he released me and said a quick apology. Sometimes these big guys just didn't know their strength I guess. Since Emmett had the same problem. Now that I think about it I hadn't seen Emmett in a long time which made me a bit sad.
But I guess he had more important things on his list of activities then bother with me. As my free day was soon occupied thanks to my dear friend, we sat together on the couch and watched a couple of movies he had brought over. I ended up falling alseep due to lack of rest and the next morning I awoke in bed. I guess Jacob must of let himself out since he wasn't there with me. Sometimes when I feel asleep when he came over he'd sleep on the bed next to me, keeping a safe distance of course. I didn't like really having someone wrapping their arms around me. Not ever since that incident with James.
Nevertheless, Sunday was dedicated to doing a simple project for the previous client. Then to my dismay, monday came. We had a new client scheduled for a meeting. But no! Thanks to my luck I forget those bloody documents in my car and have to make a trip back. I took the elevator which went much slower then I expected. Of course Tanya makes us wear monster heels to work so it gets caught somewhere and I end up tripping. Though when I went to fall, I expected to meet the floor pretty hard. Only arms caught me before I could hurt myself. Why did this seem so familiar? The touch, it was enough to sent an electric shock through my system, or was it just because I was fearing Tanya's wrath for being late? Who knew, My hair was in the way so I didn't get to see who the stranger was. Once he put me back on my feet, i felt his arms leave.
That's when his scent hit me, it was so familiar, it was his. It had to be, i turned around a bit slow, but I got a glimpse of his face, his body, the way he stood. That had been Edward... My Edward. I must of looked like I just saw a ghost! How could I had let him slip away. He must of been here to see Alice! Why didn't she tell me this? Maybe he didn't want to... maybe he saw my face and ran... I probably caused him to leave again. I walked down the hallway after recovering from shock only to be yelled at by Tanya for 'missing the client's appointment'. It wasn't my fault! Well okay it was...But I let out a sigh and got the scoop from Alice.
" So who's this 'big client' I missed?... "
" Urm... "
" Alice...What aren't you telling me? "
" It was Edward... You know, Edward Cullen. "
" He's the client!? Then that was him I ran into! "
" He ran into you? He didn't stop you or anything? "
" I don't think he actually saw me... Can you talk to him for me? Please?... You know... how much... I miss him. "
" Of course Bella! He wants to hang out soon anyways, I'll tell him then about you. I'm sure he'll be happy to know that he's still on your mind. "
" I can only hope... "
There's chapter eight in Bella P.o.V. i plan on writing an actual chapter nine soon, hopefully the flow continues and I please ya guys! Don't worry, she'll have Edward soon. I know you were probably hating me for making this encounter happen. But it happens in real life! Sometimes people don't notice the little details that can make a huge difference.
