After he left, I was completely shaken up. Did he just break up with me? No, that couldn't be, he's just upset. I knew it. I knew that if I read him the list it might cause problems. Damn
I started to pace up and down in my room. Forget the list. I don't want Edward mad at me or worse, leaving me. I had to make this right, fast!
I dialed his cell, no answer. I sent him a text and waited two hours for any form of reply. No answer. I was going out of my mind.
I tried calling 2 more times, still no answer. I knew he was ignoring me. I left voicemails too. I was about to drive over there but I thought better of it. The image of Rosalie smirking made my mood worse.
I didn't sleep a wink. I was too distraught to even attempt to sleep. I sat up in bed all night, staring at my phone, hoping it would ring.
When it was about time for school, I got up quickly, to go shower and dress, eager for something to do to distract myself. I looked in the mirror; my eyes were bloodshot red from all the crying and lack of sleep.
He said he'd never hurt me, never leave me so how could he have reacted like this? Initially yes, I wanted to forget the list but seeing as he didn't care to return any of my calls or messages, it seemed prudent to stick to the list.
As I parked the truck in the school parking lot, I looked over at Edward's regular spot, his car was there. I see he wasn't waiting for me as usual, that hurt.
He came to none of my classes, another blow. By lunch, I wasn't expecting anything good. I sat with the gang, which was a surprise to them. I looked around to Edward, he was still nowhere to be seen. Minutes later, the Cullens walked in and sat at their usual table, with Edward! He glanced my way, locked eyes then diverted his gaze.
Wow, I see he took my list as me saying that I "want space." How could someone so old, play these games? He could someone so wise; interpret things in such the wrong way?
I knew then, that he wasn't going to approach me for the rest of the day. Angela tapped me on shoulder and asked:
"Trouble in paradise?"
"I guess you can say that" I replied moodily.
"Cheer up, I bet you and Edward will be back showing inappropriate displays of affection in no time" she joked.
"I hope so," I said quietly to myself. "Where's Mike?"
"He's been missing for awhile, I tried calling him but his mom keeps saying its not a good time" replied Tyler.
"Ah, that's weird," said Angela.
"Yeah, she said something about him getting beaten up" said Tyler.
