BELLA POV
**************************************

"Emma!" I screamed at the top of my lung. I felt my heart pounding against my chest with a rhythm that felt as if it would rip through my shirt. She was gone. I took my eyes off her once, just once and she disappeared. I could feel the warm tears streaming down my face as I ran through the airport screaming her name.

She was the only thing I had, the only part of him I still had, and now she was gone. I ran as fast as I could until my feet got in the way. The floor came closer and closer to my face until everything went black. I let all my tears spill over the brims of my eyes. They pooled around my face as I lay there letting my anguish engulf me.

I feel a light tap on my back and before I knew it I was being lifted into strong arms. My head was spinning.

"Miss, are you okay?" I heard a deep voice asked.

My sobs were still ripping me open from the inside out. "My….. Daughter" I sobbed into this man shirt.

"Its okay" He soothed. "Let me bring you to the security office. Alright?" He asked with unnecessary concern leaking through his voice, I must look worse then I thought. He set me back onto my feet; through my tears I could see that he was wearing a uniform. I felt another round of hysterics about overcome me.

"Okay" I rasped in a tight voice afraid of letting any more tears spill over. I felt him grab me by the arm and began to lead me back the way I had came; and before I knew it we were standing in front of a door the read security in bold black writing. I pushed open the door as he escorted me to seat were he relayed my story to the other officers. I sat in the chair, crying my eyes out and making a complete and utter fool out of myself. What if she were to be kidnapped and I were never to see her face angelic face light up again on Christmas morning, or to never feel her crawl into my bed at night after she had, had a bad dream. This only made me cry harder and harder until I hurt too much to breathe. I felt someone place a small hand on my back. I looked up through my tears to see a woman's sympathic face gazing down at me.

"What's your name sweetheart" She asked in a soothing tone. She looked to be in her early forties. She had kind eyes and almond coloured hair.

"Isabella Swan" I choked out. She flashed her white teeth at me.

"And what your daughter's name, Isabella?"

"Emma Alice Swan, she four, and she alone and….and…" I broke. I placed my head into my hands a let the full force of my sobs take control of my body.

I over heard mumbles on how to approach the situation I had put them in. I could feel them all coward around me with desperate attempts on trying to sooth me, but all fail. The hysterics had consumed me and I knew that I wouldn't be able to come out of them until I had my little girl in my arms again. Safe and sound.

I tried to look at the people who surrounded me but their faces had become a great blur. Flesh tones mixed together. I tried desperately to wipe the tears from my eyes but they just kept coming back, spilling over the brims.

I scanned the same security office with my blurry eyes. My eyes met the door. In my head I said I silent prayer. I had never exactly believed in God, but it seemed like the right thing to do in a situation like this one.

God,

Please let my see her face once more. I promise I will be a better mom. I love her, I need her. Without her I have no reason to live. No reason to exist. Please let me have her back

Amen

My gaze was fixed on the door as I said the silent prayer over and over again in my head. I close my eyes as I felt a strange breeze blow across my face. When I reopened my eyes, and there she was. There was my baby, her face a glow with happiness when she saw me sitting there. My tears turn sorrowful to joyful in a matter of minutes. She slammed her tiny body into mind. I hugged her with every muscle in my body. I my gaze rose I saw the man who had helped her find me. Who had given me my life back.

My heart dropped. Because there he was looking at me with a perplexed expression upon his stone craven face.

"Bella" I heard him whisper in a strained but still magnificent voice. My tears began to fade as my eyes melted into his.

I felt my stomach tie into knots.

"Mamma" Emma said pulled on my tears soaked shirt. "This is Edward, he helped me find you." Emma smiled up to Edward, but he didn't notice, he was looking at me.

I swallowed my freaks. "Thank you." I said. Had he noticed the resemblance between him and her? Had he asked her about her father? My throat clenched making it hard for me to breathe. I tore my gaze away for his saddened eyes.

"Come on baby we need to get going if we want to go and see Grandma." I rasped at Emma. She slid her tiny finger into mine as I slip out the main door into the crowded terminal.

"Thank you" I called back to all the security men and women. I had to get away from here before Edward could get a better look into Emma's all too similar face. I began to walk at a quicker pace dragging Emma along behind me.

"Bella!" I heard someone yell from behind me. I knew it was him, so I increased my pace.

"Mamma, slow down, plwease" Emma begged.

"Baby, we're going to … um miss the plane." I lied, I knew we had already missed it.

"Bella, wait" I heard a velvet voice yell, and before I knew it he was standing in front of me panting like a dog.

"What do you want Edward?" I asked with an unnecessary amount of anger in my voice. I shocked him as much as I shocked myself with all the emotion in it.

"You…. You…." He stuttered looking down at Emma.

"Spit it out Edward" I said in a hard tone. Still trying to keep up my fast pace, going absolutely nowhere.

"Would you slow down?" He begged grabbing hold of my free arm.

"Let me go" I mumbled. He released he grip and threw his hands up into the air as if to pose no harm.

"Would you please just talk to me?" he muttered in a voice thick with sadness. My hands twitched out to touch to comfort but I quickly moved them back to my sides.

"What do you want to know?" I asked still in a hard tone.

"You have…. a daughter?" He asked. I rolled my eyes.

"Well, what does it look like?" I said pointing down to Emma who stayed crouched behind my legs as if hiding from a war.

"How old is she?" He said looking down to her.

"She's um…. She's …. Um…. Four." I stuttered scared about the information I was beginning to give away. Something flashed through Edward's face to fast for my slow eyes to see. But there was something their behind his cold hard face some sort of long lost feeling, which I desperately wanted him to show me.

"Four." He said in a tone that nearly broke my heart. "Who the hell were you sleeping with Bella?" He said in an almost hurt sounding voice.

Who the hell do you think I was sleeping with Edward? I though to myself.

"Is it Mike's" He asked. I looked with a puzzled expression upon my face. "Mike Newton, remember him? The boy you always flirted with." He said looking back down to Emma.

"Are you kidding me? Edward can you be so utterly stupid. I never liked Mike, I never like anyone bu-" I began to say, but sadly caught myself before I could blurt out any more of my unnecessary feelings to him. I looked up into his eyes.

"Then who's is she?" He asked. Was he joking, could he seriously not see the apparent resemblance between him and his…. Daughter. The resemblance that pulled on my heart strings every time I looked into her beautiful face.

"Mamma" I felt Emma pull on my hand again. "I want to go to Grandpa's" She looked up with longing in her eyes. A longing that I had prayed she would never posses.

"Not right now baby." I whispered to her. She let out a deep sigh and looked back up to Edward's face, her oblivious' father's face.

"Answer me Bella" He said in a hard tone.

"Edward, I have only ever slept with one person in my whole life." I choked out. Telling him something, giving him the answer to the secret I had wished to keep for as long as I lived. I tighten my grip on Emma's hand and began to stalk away. I increased my pace until I came to the doors leading out to the parking lot. I ran out into the rain and toward my ancient truck, not knowing where the hell I was going. I opened the passenger's door and buckled Emma in. I ran over to the other side of my truck, but before I reached the door he stood in front of me. I quietly shrieked under my breath.

Rain pour down onto our faces make it hard to see each other. But even through the down pour he still looked beautiful. To my eyes the rain seemingly looked to be almost like… tear drops

I mentally slapped myself over thinking anything of the fact, why would he be crying?

"Bella" I heard him whispered. I had to strain my ears to hear him through the rain.

"What are you trying to tell me?" He asked, with worry wrapped into his voice.

I looked at him with tears that now filled my pain stricken eyes. "She's yours Edward, she's all your." I whispered, just loud enough for him to hear me above the rain I turned away from him, as I saw all the questions within his eyes answered. I opened my door but subtly looked back at him once.

"I have a daughter" He said. I didn't sound like a questioned it sounded more like a statement. I felt my heart break as I saw a small smile spread across his face.

I needed to leave.

I needed to get out of here.

He was engaged he was soon going to start a family of his own with Tanya. He didn't need Emma and I hanging around. I didn't need anything from Edward. He had given me everything I needed to survive. A beautiful daughter.

My mind told me this, but like always my heart told me other things.

I needed him, I craved him. But he was something I knew I could never have. And I knew that would probably never have him in my arms again.

He was out of reach.

So close, yet so far, far away.
