A/N:
SO ABOUT THE STORY I WANT TO WRITE. THERE ARE TWO OPTIONS.
1- Bella is Edward's best friend's girlfriend. They meet, not even aware of such fact, they click and then they find out their situation. How can they be together? … you'll see.
2- Bella is at Vet school and Edward is in Med school. They meet, and once she tells him what she is studying he makes his ideas about how Veterinary medicine shouldn't even be considered a degree pretty clear. Bella tells him studying Veterinary is just as hard as studying medicine and he, being a stuck up jerk, laughs at this. They both hate each other's guts. While they try to show the other just how wrong they are, will love appear between them?
I love both of them… if you've seen any of this plots in another twilight fan-fiction please let me know! I don't want people to think I copied their ideas. Then, it would take me quite some time to start writing any of these but I'll write both, of that you can be sure.
The problem here is which one should I write first, and don't worry I'll still update THIS STORY EVERY SATURDAY. Thanks for everything, read and review.
cullenlady-foreva this chapter is specially for you, hope you can read it before you leave.
Disclaimer: Psh! like I could ever even dream about owning Twilight.
Alice POV
I watched with worry as Bella entered the car, she was beyond anger. I had expected her to be sad, disappointed, but anger was something I wasn't prepared for. She closed the car door rudely and I frowned, it was my baby's door she was slamming, but I guess I deserve her rudeness. She can't see it now, but the fact that she's leaving is what's best for her. I know it will help her improve so much, I can just sense it.
Bella is the most talented figure skater I have ever known, and believe me I know a lot. The only difference between her and professional, participate-in-the-Olympics skaters is they believe in their talent, something Bella dont! That and the fact they had professional trainers that would remind them of such fact every time they fall or try to give up. That's something Bella lacks, I know Angela is a great trainer, who reminds Bella of her talent every chance she gets. But Bella, being so stubborn, believes that Angela says this out of kindness and the fact that they are friends more than skater-coach. Seriously Bella needs to get some sense knocked into her, and training professionally is the perfect way to do so.
I shoot one last glance at the building before opening the driver's door. What I saw made my stomach drop, Edward was still standing in the same spot. He hadn't moved and inch, he was staring right at us, or so I think. I couldn't see his expression for I was too far, but something made me think I didn't want to see it. I shook my head and entered the car. Apparently what seemed like minutes to me were only mere seconds since neither Bella nor Rose commented on my lateness to enter the car. I quickly revved the engine and it purred sweetly, I headed to my house while I dialed Charlie's phone number. I was making Bella stay with me tonight, I needed to be right beside her, to show her how leaving to train was the best option at this very moment.
Bella noticed we weren't heading to her house and quickly moved to ask about it. She lifted herself, in between both driver and passenger seat, with her hands.
"Alice can you-" She began to say, clearly angry. I held up my index finger for her to shut up, she stopped immediately. I pointed to the cell phone I held to my ear with the same finger that had shut her up. She crossed her arms and looked at me while I waited patiently for Charlie to pick up. Finally he did.
"Oh, Hi Charlie!" I said happily into the phone, Bella huffed and rolled her eyes at this. I turned to smile at her, returning my eyes to the road quickly. I talked Charlie into letting Bella sleep over for the night and he obviously agreed, no one could deny me anything once I gave then my convincing tone, and if it was too difficult to convince maybe even a pout.
We arrived to my house and Bella got out of the car in less than a second, not slamming the door this time, something I was overly grateful for. She entered the house and Rose and I watched in awe, we had seen Bella mad before, it wasn't precisely a nice view. You definitely don't want to get anywhere near her when she's angry.
"I hope this works" Rose said in a both hopeful and resigned tone.
"I hope so too" I answered as I stared at the door Bella had just entered through.
Bella POV
What the hell was his problem!? First he goes all sweet and mellow, saying I'm beautiful, saying he likes me. Then he decides he doesn't want anything to do with me! I knew I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up, I knew he was way too perfect for this to be real but I still acted so stupidly. He was such a… a… a jerk! That was it he was a jerk! Just as I had first predicted, he turned out to be exactly as I had foreseen.
But if there was anyone to blame for this, it was me, I looked past his jerkiness and ignored it to the point I thought there was no such thing.
I allowed myself to believe in him, to believe every single stupid thing he'd say. I want you to stay with me… I really like you, and I certainly hope you do too… Have I told you you're that most beautiful girl I've ever seen? Psh! I should have known better! How could I be so stupid as to believe any of this words?!
He was too perfect, from the very beginning he was sweet and charming all the time. I should have known that wasn't possible, at least not for me. I was angry, angry with Edward of course, but most of all I was angry with myself… what the hell is wrong with me?!
I had just entered Alice's house, on top of it all she had convinced my parents to allow me to stay for the night. In any other situation I would have thanked her, but right now all I wanted was to be on my own and drown on my own anger. Seriously all I'm going to do here is make them feel bad only because I feel bad. I walked directly to her room, opened the door and let myself in closing the door behind me.
Once inside I walked to the edge of the bed and began to take my skates off. Feeling still angry I pulled my skates off and threw then across the room, not bothering to take any of the ice off the blades. I looked around for something I could throw or break and then spotted a ball, a tennis ball. I took it in my hands and threw it against the floor with all my strength letting out a frustrated scream. It crashed with the walls, roof, and furniture before finally stopping right by my feet.
I had calmed down enough to look at the situation from another angle, the more realistic future-oriented angle. Edward didnt want me he never did nor never would. He was only playing with me and my feelings. How could I be so stupid?! Why would anyone as handsome as Edward want me?! Why would anyone as perfect as Edward pretended to be, want to date me?! I was even angrier with myself now!
Just then I realized something so obvious my mind had blocked it out, maybe for the pain it was causing. I didn't had Edward anymore! I was alone! No boy, except Mike, ever wanted me! I would never be with Edward on a date again! He'll never hold me again! I couldn't continue thinking about it, I just sank on the bed, brought my legs up and wrapped my arms around them as I allowed all the sorrow and regret wash me over. A tear escaped me and hundreds followed, they just wouldn't stop falling. I began sobbing as the realization hit me.
Edward was never mine, and never will be. Nobody wants me.
Alice POV
I entered the house and headed to my room the door was closed and a bumping sound was coming from the inside. I turned to look at Rose and she seemed to be hearing the same bumping sound, trying to decipher what it was. Maybe, a ball? No, were would she get a ball. The annoying sound came to an end and Rose motioned for me to open the door. I raised my hand to the doorknob and allowed it to rest there, not really looking forward to opening the door.
"Okay remember to tell her she should leave, but not that obviously." I reminded Rose. She rolled her eyes at me.
"Like I could ever forget" She said.
"Okay, lets go." I said cautiously. I forced the hand resting in the doorknob to turn. The door cracked open and I pushed it a little. What I found wasn't what I was expecting. I hd expected Bella to be throwing stuff around, specially after the bumping sound we heard. I was mentally prepared for her rage. Instead I found something completely different. Bella was sitting on my bed, her legs bent and her arms around them, she had her head down. But what surprised me the most was how her shoulder shook with what appeared to be sobs. Maybe she hit herself that must have been the bumping sound. No way, Bella doesn't bounce. Then why was she crying?
I walked to the edge of the bed and sat beside her as did Rose. Bella didn't even moved, she mightn't have noticed us. I raised my hand to her back and rubbed it comfortingly. I looked up at Rose ad she did the same, both of us trying to help our friend.
"Bella, honey, tell us. What happened?" I asked as if I was clueless. Bella had no idea we knew exactly what happened, so we had to play it off.
"He… he-he dumped me!" She answered without lifting her head from her knees. I sighed dramatically, keeping up with the facade.
"Why? What did he said?" Rose asked Bella and she did sounded truly curious. I mean we were aware he broke up with her, but what he told her was still a mystery.
"He said he-he didn't want a-any relationship with me-me" She answered again, her sobs making it hard to understand her. I hadn't expected this, he had told her what? Suddenly she started to cry even harder, like that was possible. She continued like that for a couple minutes, us rubbing her back and she sobbing. I was thinking about ways to bring the training topic up when she said something I wasn't expecting. "I-I loved h-him." She sobbed. Oh my god! A big wave of guilt washed over me,I forced him to break up with her and she. she loved him? No maybe she is just confused. Yeah that's it! She doesn't mean what she's saying.
I raised my eyes to look at Rose and found her looking back at me. We were both trying to communicate with our eyes. Hers showed confusion, surprise and a ting of regret, and I'm sure mine showed just the same. I was trying to find something to say to Bella, and I'm sure Rose was too.
Suddenly I recognized one of my visions. Bella was sobbing on my bed and Rose and I were exchanging what-should-we-say glances. That's exactly what my vision showed. I was the one to make the decision that brought us here. I felt both relief and worry. Relief because finally one of my visions was coming true and worry because I still have to decipher the others and this meant nothing. For all we know Bella can still be planning to stay.
Bella POV
I was sobbing like crazy. But I had to tell my friends the reason I was crying. I told them barely, before breaking down again. Why did I even care that Edward didn't want me? There had been lots of guys that didn't want a relationship with me. What was different about Edward? Why was I really crying? My mind was trying to tell me something that escaped me. Suddenly it hit me, like a huge wave in the ocean. But not one of those that move you around while you laugh at yourself. No this wave was drowning me.
I love Edward. Even with such a short time of knowing him I already loved him. I had never loved anyone before, of course I loved my friends and my family but I had never loved anyone romantically before. That's why I'm crying. I began to cry even harder, why was it that the one time I truly care about someone they don't care about me? My heart was shattering as I realized this, I love him and he doesn't love me back. "I-I loved h-him." It took me a few seconds to realize I had said it out loud, for I don't stutter like that in my mind. I didn't care what Rose or Alice thought about me. They probably think I'm going mad, who loves someone after a mere week and a half of knowing them? But I could feel it I loved Edward.
I loved him and he didn't want me. I was broken to say the least. I continued sobbing as I thought about ways to forget everything about him. I wasn't having any luck with that, forgetting him would be a crime. But still I have to deal with this. I don't think I can handle seeing him again, my heart would shatter into a billion pieces if I do so. And it's already quite broken. But how can I avoid seeing him, we train in the same ice rink after all. I was void to see him soon, but I don't think it would be bearable.
Suddenly it occurred to me. I can leave, I can escape this heartbreak. I can escape and become a better skater, leaving is the best option I have. That's it, I can leave to train…but Alice, Rose. Remember they were okay with you leaving before. That's right, they should be okay with it now again. I've already talked to my parent about the offer I rejected and they agreed I should have left, that it would have been good for me. Angela had been mad when she found out I gave up this opportunity. I had my friend's, my parents' and my trainer's support. The only one missing was that of the one I love, but he surely wants me miles away from him if I repulse him enough to tell me he wants nothing to do with me. So there it is, I'm doing him a favor. He won't have to look at me and regret ever starting dating me, for he wont have to see me for a long time.
I'm leaving.
Alice POV
I was still rubbing Bella's back absentmindedly, thinking about something to say, along the lines of 'hey you should go away to train'. I was turning this same words in my head trying to make it sound more subtle, but I definitely couldn't find the right way to achieve it. I think you should leave to train, no too obvious… Maybe what you need is to leave for about six months, too obvious as well. I was thinking of this when all of the sudden the image of Bella training in the unknown place flashed through my mind. But this time she wasn't only speeding as I had first seen her, in this vision, which surroundings were also hidden, Bella was training what appears to be an I-spin. I have never seen her done I spins before. Y spin of course, but I-spin is totally another level. (a/n: for me at least I-spin is harder than Y-spin… links to both on my profile)
Although this showed me she had decided to improve, to become a better skater. This helped my plan perfectly if she had decided to train more until she achieved an I-spin then it wouldn't be that hard to convince her to leave. Unexpectedly the image shifted again, but this time Bella wasn't the change. Her surroundings began to shift, the light that was blocking my view lost most of its power and therefore I was able to see where she was. Bella was in an ice-rink I have never been to. I know all ice-rinks look practically the same but you can tell the little differences. More specifically the amount of light the ice-rink received. I was trying to memorize this image when it shifted again, well Bella's surroundings changed like she was in another ice-rink. Then they shifted again and then back to the first one. They began flashing so fast that I couldn't see any details. I was becoming dizzy. Why was Bella changing her mind so quickly?!
Bella POV
I couldn't seem to stop sobbing although I now knew what I was going to do. The pain of being rejected by Edward was too crushing for anything to bring it down, even a little bit. I continued shaking with now silent sobs but the tears wouldn't stop falling down my cheeks, I probably look like a mess. What was wrong with me?! Why didn't he love me back?! Were things that flashed through my mind every now and then, making me sob and cry harder every time. Which were the options again? Minnesota, Colorado and California.
I have to call the agency! I need to feel that I'm already out of here, I need to now I'm escaping. I took my cell phone and looked through the dialed calls and looked for the unfamiliar number, it was the only unknown number that I had dialed so it was really no problem. Alice and Rose were staring at me, confused. I gathered my courage and pressed send. I held the phone to my ear, waiting for someone to answer from the other side of the line.
"Good evening, how can I help you?" An unfamiliar voice picked up. Evening? I looked quickly at the clock and was surprised to see it was merely 4 in the afternoon. Wow it had merely been an hour since… I pushed those thoughts away in order to stop myself from sobbing again, tears were still streaming down my face and I had to force my voice not to sound weak.
"Hi, is this the training agency office?" I asked biting my lip, what if I had dialed the wrong number.
"Yes it is, Who are you looking for?"
"Um… I don't really know, they called me."I answered, I really had no idea how the guy was called. There was a moment of silence and then she spoke again.
"Okay if you give me your name, I'll track the one who called you." She said in a professional tone.
"Isabella Swan." I answered quickly, my voice a little more controlled.
"Isabella Marie Swan?" She asked again but more to herself. "Let me connect you with with Austin" She continued. Hmm so Austin is his name.
"Thank you." I said and then waited for Austin to pick up, I heard a couple beeps and some static. I was actually pretty surprised they would work Sundays, almost none companies did. Finally someone picked up.
"Hello, Isabella?" He asked
"Hi, yeah its me." I said, and was happy to notice my voice sounded ever stronger.
"Oh, how may I help you?" He asked kindly, I couldn't speak, more like I couldn't find my voice or the courage to say it. "Have you changed your mind?" He asked hopefully.
"Yes" I said finally finding my voice, it was still weak, but he'll probably think its because of the phone. "Yes, I've changed my mind." I said more to myself than to him.
"I'm glad you called, I was about to give up your spot. But I knew you would call." He said truthfully. "I even got you a place in Seattle." He added. Seattle? That was what I might have wanted but now I need to be as far away as possible, I need to be unable to visit forks for the time I'm training.
"Um… I'd rather go somewhere else." I said. There was silence, he probably thinks I'm bipolar.
"Where would you like to go? Minnesota, or California." I noticed he said Colorado no longer, maybe it was already taken.
"I think California." I said. It was the best option. It was close enough that my close friends would visit me and it was far enough to make me forget everything about Washington for a while.
"Okay then you'll train in San Francisco." He said simply. I almost laughed, I felt so relieved I was leaving this place for good. Plus I was going to live in San Francisco, I've always wanted to go there. "Your spot has been ensured, don't worry. We need to meet along with your parents to sign some papers, and that's it."
"Okay sure" I said. He gave an address, it was located in Seattle. I guess it's the nearest place to us. I thanked him and he explained how it'll work. I'll study during the morning in a public school near the ice rink and I'll train during the afternoons. I'll have access to jump simulators and I'll be assigned a trainer. I'll even stay at the building by the ice rink, it was perfect.
"Thanks." I said after he set a date for our meeting, this Wednesday.
"See you soon" He finished before hanging up. I smiled despite myself, tears had stopped falling and I was now more calmed. I raised my gaze to find Alice and Rose smiling sympathetically at me. I kept my smile in place.
"I'm leaving to San Francisco to train." I said halfheartedly, I didn't want to leave them, but I have to. They smiled wider and hugged me.
"I'm so happy for you Bella." Rose said truthfully. "This will be great for you." She continued.
"Yeah, it'll be great." Alice agreed, but it sounded kind of forced, turned my head to look at her. She hid her expression from me and I became worried. Was Alice mad at me?
