You Found Me - The Fray
I found God on the corner of 1st and Amistad
Where the West was all but won
All alone, smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?" He said, "Ask anything"
Where were you when everything was falling apart?
All my days were spent by the telephone that never rang
And all I needed was a call that never came
To the corner of 1st and Amistad
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late, you found me, you found me
But in the end everyone ends up alone
Losing her, the only one who's ever known
Who I am, who I'm not and who I wanna be
No way to know how long she will be next to me
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late, you found me, you found me!
The early morning, the city breaks
And I've been calling for years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never sent me no letters
You got some kind of nerve taking all I want!
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor, where were you? Where were you?
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late, you found me, you found me!
Why'd you have to wait to find me, to find me?
Soft mummers echoed in my mind, replaying the same sentence.
I'm you father.
I'm you father
I'm you father.
A frantic voice broke through my mind. "She's not is waking up Jasper. I've tried everything. Yes please. And hurry!"
"Will she be okay?" an unfamiliar voice asked, their voice laced with concern.
"She should be. She faints all the time. Usually takes her about two minutes to come back round. I just don't get why it taking so long!" She yelled in frustration. "Wake up Bella!" I felt a sharp sting on my cheek, instantly followed by a harsh thwack. Gosh that hurt. I attempted to open my eyes but I couldn't. They weighted the weight of the world and I couldn't find the strength to open them.
Footsteps tickled around the room and loud hums buzzed, flickering off the walls.
"Come on Bella, it's been twenty minutes! Wake up already!" Alice cried, sobbing into what I guess was Jaspers shoulder.
"Bella?" a soft, yet seemingly distant voice called. "Can you open your eyes, sweetie?" Rosalie. It sounded like Rosalie. My eyelids were heavy and my lips unmoving.
Open your eyes! I yelled at myself. Slowly, my eyes flickered open, before closing again with the weight. I could hear a series of gaps and a small yelp. Once again, I attempted to open my eyes, this time I was successful. Creating a circle around my head, my friends started at me along with my dad.
My dad?!
"Oh thank good Bella." Rosalie's velvet voice broke the silence, before pulling me into a hug. From the new angle, I could see Edward in the corner of the room, staring at me intently, and his eyes glassy.
"It is getting stronger." Edward and Alice chanted in unison. I looked over to Alice to see her face resembling Edwards. Distant and tormented.
"The connection is growing stronger with every second." Their voices sound robotic, like it wasn't them. Everyone stared to Alice, unknowing that it was happening to Edward as well. Moments past and they return back to normal, not before falling to the floor.
"Edward!" I cried, tears spilling down my face. Jasper ran to were Alice lay, as I sprinted to the corner of the room where Edward lay. Silence filled the room before Alice and Edward gasped simultaneously. Cries of relief filled the room.
"Thank god." I sobbed, latching onto the hard shoulder. I looked over to Alice, where everyone was hover around her hugging her. My dad stood in the corner of the room, his eyes on me. I turned back to Edward, staring at him intensely.
"What Happened?" I asked, still attached to his shoulder.
"I don't know. The la….last thing I remember is…….you was on the floor then it went blank." He said, breathing unevenly. His eyes widened, and his face rose to my face, cupping my cheek. Reflectively, I leaned into his touch.
"Are you okay?" he asked, stroking my face affectionately. I nodded, kissing him gently before pulling him off the floor.
"Alice!" I yelled, running across the room, Edward in tow. My body collided with hers.
"Are you okay?" I asked, grabbing her face between my hands. She nodded weakly and I could tell by her eyes she was not okay.
"Honey I think you should get some rest." I told her.
"I think she should come to mine Bella so you and your guest can have some privacy." Jasper said, pulling Alice into his arm. I paled at the thought of me and my long lost dad in the same room together, alone. I kissed Alice on the fore head before hugging Jasper.
"Thanks Jasper." I breathed, suddenly tired.
"No problem. Anything for my baby." He nodded to Alice, who was already asleep in his arms. He kissed my cheek before walking out of the room. Rosalie and Emmett followed them, kissing my cheek and hugging me tightly.
"If you need anything I'm just a call away." Emmett said, pointy glancing at Charlie. I nodded my thanks, kissing his cheek before turning to Edward.
"I'll go." He whispered. "But if you need me, just holler okay?" I nodded and he kissed me good bye.
"Love you." he breathed. I couldn't help the goofy smile that filled my face.
"I love you too." I smiled, waving bye to his fading figure. I turned reluctantly to where Charlie stood in the far corner of the room, his face frozen. I sighed, gesturing for him to sit on the sofa. He moved robotically and sat awkwardly on the edge of the sofa. Time passed in uncomfortable silence. We just started at each other. I could tell just by looking at him that he was my father- we had the same hair colour and texture and the same boring brown eyes.
"Are thing normal this hectic?" he asked breaking the silence. I paused biting my lip nervously.
"Not normally." I started. "But recently, yes they are." He paused for a long period of time and I could see the internal debate in his eyes.
"I'm sorry." He said, bowing his head in shame.
"Where were you?" I asked nervously. "And why now?" A deep v formed on this forehead.
"I guess the only place I can start is the beginning." He folded his hand over his lap, something that I did all the time. "I was eighteen when I met your mother. I was walking down the street when I saw her. I remember I just had to talk to her so I walked into her. I only meant to lightly tap her but she ended up on the ground. We started talking and we eventually grew to be great friends. But I can be very stubborn and I didn't give up without a fight and she eventually agreed to go out with me. She was beautiful." His eyes glowed at the memory. "When we were nineteen, I was planning on proposing, but your mum dropped a bigger bomb shell. She was pregnant." A small smile played on his lips. "And I was over the moon. I mean I was going to be a father." The smile slowly faded. "When she was seven months pregnant she ran away. Only left a note. I was distraught and made it my mission to find her and you. But it's harder then it seems. I mean I didn't even know your name."
"But my mum told me that you left me. That you didn't want me." I interrupted.
"I guess she was trying to protect you." he mused, running his hands through his thick hair.
"Isabella..." he started.
"Bella."
"Who were you talking to before." He asked and I instantly knew he was talking about Edward.
"Its complicated." I offered, hoping that he wouldn't prey. He snorted loudly, causing me to jump.
"That's what your mother use to say." My heart leap out of my chest.
"You mean this happened to mum?"
"Define this?" he probed and I knew I had to tell him.
"I… I have a gift." I started, wondering how to phase it. "A gift that lets me talk to the dead." I sighed abruptly. His eyes widened and his mouth gaped open.
"Bella. Your mother had the same gift." He edged. "At first she wouldn't admit it, but I knew something was wrong. She was always so secretive and often talked to herself. She reluctantly told me several months after we had been dating." In many ways I was surprised but yet I had always had a feeing that I had inherited my gift off her. Lost in thought, time passed in silence between Charlie and me. A lone tear tricked down my cheek, landing on my exposed skin.
"Bella, you do not know how I regret not being there for you. If I could turn back the clock, I would and I hope you know that." I nodded numbly, smiling faintly.
"I'm sorry. I'm not really myself at the moment." I resisted the urge to hug him. "Do you think we could keep in contact? I would like to get to know my dad." Charlie's smile was blinding.
"Of course. I was thinking that we could go for a meal; get to know each other better." He looked down at the floor, yet another thing I did when I was nervous.
"I would like that." I grinned sheepishly, pushing my untamed hair out of my eyes. He looked at me with an expression I could only describe as love.
"Isabella. My baby girl" he whispered, taking hold on my hand and squeezing it gently. I took that as an offer and launched myself into his body. I couldn't help the sobs that broke through my chest, ripping it apart. Everything that has happened recently caught up with me and I sobbed into his pale blue shirt. He stroked my back, trying to sooth my frantic cries. Eventually, my sobs died down and I pulled away. I chucked before smiling. "I am glad you found me."
