Chapter 12
The ride in the limo to Forks High School was short but quiet. I expected myself to start hyperventilating. Jacob seemed at ease, but I just wanted to get this night over with. As we pulled up into school, I saw that they had outdone themselves this year with prom. The decorations were fantastic and well, it actually looked like they finally spent money to make it nice.
We got out of the limo and Jacob went to go buy our tickets. He seemed pretty comfortable with it, but I was about to break down and start crying. First of all, Jacob was taking me to prom, not Edward as he did last year. I tried to keep my spirits up, just for this night. I realized that there were a lot of distractions meaning I wasn't remembering something I knew I shouldn't.
I saw Angela and her boyfriend Ben and I walked over with Jacob to introduce him to them. After the introductions, the DJ just so happened to put on a slow song… great.
Jacob looked down at me expectantly and he slipped his arms around my waist and I, shakily wound my arms around his neck.
I honestly did not want this to be happening. This was all wrong! Jacob was the wrong guy, I was at the wrong place, and I just wanted Edward back.
We had gone through the night without me falling way to many times. I only fell, oh… you know… 10 times? Not that much compared to last year. It was almost the end of the night and Jacob led me outside saying he had to show me something.
When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done, help me leave behind some reasons to be missed… don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty, keep me in your memories, leave out all the rest… leave out all the rest.
There's my phone ringing. I had set the ringtone to Leave Out All The Rest by Linkin Park, and soon developed an addiction to the band. (AN: Like me! lol)
I took it out of my clutch and pressed it to my ear.
"Hello?" I said.
"Bella? Bella!! Bella?!?!?! Where the hell are you?" Alice's frantic voice shouted in the phone.
What the hell?
"Alice! Calm down! I'm at prom with Jake, remember?" I said to her, disgruntled.
"No, no, no. Bella I don't know what decision you made, but suddenly, you just blacked out!" Alice screamed.
"Alice! I'm safe and sound! Calm down!!! There is nothing wrong! I'm just outside with Jake... he said he had to show me something. Alice, can I get back to my night now? I promise I'm safe. Now please leave me alone." I said and hung up.
"What was that all about," Jacob asked.
"I don't really know. There was an emergency phone call and… well yeah. No biggie," I replied.
"Ok… so here we go," He said.
"BELLA! GET OVER HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" Alice screamed, running over to where Jacob and I were standing.
"What the hell is going on, Alice!!?" I screeched, my voice going up an octave.
She dragged me over to her and decided to just push me in the car and take me home. I got my phone out and called Jacob, apologizing for the night and telling him there was a family emergency. He bought that story, and after I hung up, I glared at Alice.
She was driving fast and explained to me that my future was abruptly lost, and we didn't know why.
I sighed and got out of the car stiffly as I walked up the front porch steps.
I didn't want to talk to anyone right now and just wanted to fall asleep. I walked into my room and was startled.
It was him. It was Edward. Oh, my gosh. This cannot be happening. I started hyperventilating and tears gushed down my face for some reason I didn't know of. I fell and kept crying. Edward slowly stood up, probably not to startle me anymore, and took me in his arms. I was shocked to see him here. I missed him terribly. He let me soak up his shirt with tears for a good 5 minutes or so. Slowly, my crying stopped. He didn't say anything, and neither did I.
After a little more silence, I went over to my bed and lay down with him by my side.
"I love you," I croaked, my voice thick with tears.
"As I love you," he replied, making me cry even harder.
But then I remembered I was still in my prom dress and went to the bathroom to quickly change. I ran back to my room and walked into his arms.
I fell asleep in his arms that night and dreamed blissfully.
