Edwards POV
I was kissing her. Fuck. I was really kissing her. After for so long I could taste her, hold her, kiss her again. No luck. She pushed me away.
"Don't ever do that again in you want to stay my friend and keep me around." What?
"Why?" I was surprised. Is this was movie there will be – Happily ever after.
"That-" she pointed between us "-made me leave the town. Remember? Before we started dating I told you that nothing good was going to happen. And I was right. We were like cat and mouse."
"I don't get it. You left town so things come easier for us and now you are saying that there will be us?" Was she fucking kidding me?
"I want 'us' but as and friends Edward." She said and squeezed my hand. "I'm sorry but I won't let ruin this stupid thing – love – and let that shit ruin our relationships." She said and walked away leaving me there confused, surprised and I wanted to run and catch her, but I knew Bella, she means that.
I walked to back to bar and was stopped by the same blond chick – Charlotte I guess. I need to fucking forget that cold hearted bitch. Bella does nothing but ruin me. "Hey sexy." Blond said brushing my hand up and down with her palm.
"Hey." I said and gave here that crooked smile. She gasped. That fucking worked all the tame. Girls just can't resist the Cullens charm.
"I saw you talking to Bella. You know each other?"
"Yeah."
"You two have something?"
"What it is to you?" I asked her. I really don't like when people ask me questions, especially personal.
"I know Bella and you should stay away from her. She's bad news." WTF? Bella ? Oh yeah –she's SATAN. I laughed. And looked at her.
"What do you say we stop talking about Bella and do something much better?" I suggested and she smiled wildly.
"I will go and get my stuff."
"Take your time."
I said and turned around. My smile faded. There was Bella laughing with other guy. She was fucking happy without me. Who is he?
"Peter." I heard voice. I turned around and saw Jasper. He looked at me and smiled. "What?"
"What?"
"You asked – who is he." Did I say that out loud?
"Yes you did." Jasper nodded.
"What?"
"You just said – did I said that out loud." He said and shook his head.
"Who is he?"
"Peter. Bellas…Ex I think. They dated but then he needed to leave town. He said it will be for years. So they kind of broke up. I don't know why he is back. " Bella had a boyfriend?
"Are you ready to leave?" Blonde came to my other side.
"Hello Charlotte." Said Jasper.
"Hello Jasper."
"Look whose back in town."
"I don't care." She gave him sarcastic smile and he laughed. "I will wait for you outside." She said to me and walked away giving Jasper dirty look.
"What was that about?" I asked him.
"Not exactly my place to say you this. Just when time is right Bella will told you." He said and I nodded.
"Edward." I turned around and saw Emmett. "Can you please take home Alice. I have to leave." He said and I wanted to say no, but being a good friend I told I will take Alice home. Screw the girl.
I looked over Emmetts shoulder and saw Rose with her new boyfriend. I understood why he had to leave.
"Be safe man." I told him and he nodded.
Bellas POV
I left Edward standing there. I tried to hold my tears back. I h ate hurting him, but I was right. Last time I said yes to him we ended up with me running away.
I walked to bar and sat down. Jake glanced at me. "What's wrong?"
"Edward." I simply said and he nodded.
"Hey my favorite girl." I froze. I never thought I would hear his voice again. I turned around and saw Peter.
We meet about 2 and half years ago. I met him actually in this club. He walked in looking all miserable and sat by down the bar. I asked him what's wrong and he told me about his relationships about this girl. I actually knew the girl and was sure she got other boyfriend. Apparently she cheated on him.
I told him my story and why I and Jazz are here. Since that night we met here every Friday. After year and half we started to date. He never tried to push me anything. He was good to me. Before about 7 months he told he has to leave the town for years. I was shocked but I wasn't going to stop him. I was his job, so who I am to not let him go, right?
"Peter. What are you doing in LA?" I said and hugged him. He laughed.
"Need to do stuff. How are you?" He asked lettering go of me.
"Edwards in town." I told and he widened his eyes. "Yup." I nodded and took a sip of my Cosmo.
"How? Why? Did he find out you where here?" He asked. "Did you tell him about…?"
"No. I couldn't."
"You should. He has right to know Bella." He said and drank his beer.
"Oh just please Peter. You're not my dad. " I told him and he chuckled. "Oh I have to tell you this funny story." I said and stopped. He looked at me. I giggled. Yeah I fucking giggled. "This morning I went to Charlottes. Remember you told me to get that's stuff?'' he nodded. "Well I was about to knock when doors opened. And guess who was at the door?" He waited. "Edward."
"Why was he there?" He asked and narrowed his eyebrows.
"Probably just fuck her. I coughed him sneaking out of house." I said and he laughed.
"You told me he's saint." He was. Edward actually never did those things in high school. He was always gentleman and respected the girls.
"People change honey." I winked at him.
"So you two still singing?" He asked and I nodded. He asked me to go and sing but my eyes coughed something I would never expected.
There stood Rose and Royce in the middle of the dance floor fighting. He was grabbing her wrist and spun her around when she was about to leave. I quickly looked around and saw Edward looking at me. I jumped of the chair and made my way where the Rose and Royce are.
"I saw how you look at him." Royce yelled at Rose. I saw Edward fallowing my movement and he coughed the action too.
"Royce what's going on?" I asked looking at Rose.
"Stay out of it Bella." He yelled at me. I grip his arm and pulled it away from Rose when he showed me.
"Don't you ever dare to touch her or Rose again likes that!"Edward yelled at Royce.
"Who are you to tell me how to touch my bitch?"
"Because I'm her best friend. And that's not the way you speak about your girlfriend." Edward said and punched him in face. Royce grabbed his nose and let go of Rosalies arm. I wrapped my arms around her and held her. Royce took his hand off of his face and tried to punch Edward but he was faster and coughed his fist in air and punched him in stomach.
I took her outside the club while Aro was throwing Royce in cab.
"Where is Jasper?" Rose didn't responded and Edward said that he was dancing with Alice moment ago. I glanced around and didn't saw them.
"What happened? Are you alright Bella?" said Peter putting arm on my back. I nodded.
"Can you please wait for Jasper that tell him I left and told what happened and say him that I'm taking Rose to our house?"
"Yeah sure."
"Thanks." I said and tried to catch the cub.
"Bella I can take you home." I glanced at him. "Although I think it should be better for you two stay at my house, Since Royce knows where you live."
I thought about all the possibilities. Yes Royce knew where I live. I knowing Royce he will probably will be coming looking for her. Saying no to Edward maybe bring trouble. I sighed and nodded to him. He nodded back and walked us to his car.
"Still?" I asked him looking at the Volvo.
"New." He told and opened doors for Rose and then for me.
"Why would you buy new car the same as your old one?"
"I was in car crash with my old." He said and put on seatbelt. Car crash?
"Car crash? How long ago? I never coughed Alice mention it to me."
"It doesn't matter." He told and started the car. I sat silent all the way to his apartment.
The way there wasn't long. He actually lived close to me. He was moved in his own house. I remember Alice told me that yesterday.
We went in and I Edward put Rosalie in sleep. I stood in doors and looked at him. He was sitting on the edge of Rosalies bed looking at her.
"She missed you too." I said and he jumped. He looked at me and shrugged.
"I missed you too Edward." He laughed sarcastically. "No, I really missed you."
"I wanted for you to call. To write. I even hoped that you stood the other side of doors when someone knocked at them. Fuck Bella I was out of my mind. I missed you like crazy." He said and sat down in couch. We were now in his living room.
"I can't make it go away Edward. And you sure didn't wait for me. I know about your womanizing ways while you were in college." He looked up at me surprised, but then he probably remembered that Alice wrote me couple of years.
"It was the only way to get you out of my mind. While I was high and girls were around me I thought of you less." He admitted.
"I was pregnant." His looked up at me with horrified eyes.
"What?" he said in low voice.
"You heard me." I told him and he squeezed his eyes shut and then opened them again.
"I don't understand. When? How? Okay that was stupid question. "
"I found out in March when I had miscarriage." I told him and he tensed.
"You mean…it was mine? It was back in school?" he looked confused.
"I went to look for you after my biology class, I couldn't find you anywhere. I walked to gym thinking you probably were there." I paused remembering the feelings that took me in the moment I went in gym. "I saw you with Tanya. She kissed you, she was all over you and you didn't push her away. I know you always were gentleman, but it hurt my feelings. I run away as fast as I could. I cried. I thought I'm no good for you so that's why you always seemed distant in past year. I though you thought you mad mistake dating me. I didn't told you that I saw you two because I was afraid you will tell me that it's over. I wasn't ready to lose you." Tears were now in my eyes. Edward looked sad.
"I cried for days. You never showed up. I was all alone. In next week I heard rumors about you fucking Tanya and I believed them, because I saw you two kissing. So I run as fast as I could."
I took deep breath. "Alice found me covered in blood. She called the hospital. Doctor told me about baby. " I let out breath. Edwards jaw was clenched.
"I made Alice promise to never tell you."
"I fucking hate myself." He said and sat back in his seat. "Now I understand why you left me. I was fucking jerk to you. I was never there to help you. You lost..Our child because I was an ass and you thought I don't love you." He covered his face with his hands. "I should have died in that fucking car crash." He said and stood up.
"Don't say that. It wasn't your fault." He looked at me like I had two heads.
"You are kidding right? Not my fault? I crushed you Bella! I ruined you. I was never there for you. I even didn't know you were pregnant." He dropped on his knees in front of me. "I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry, love." He said and hugged my waist resting his head in my lap.
"It's past Edward. That was faith. It had to happen. I told you from the start that we aren't mean to be. So that only proves the point."
"No. Stop with that bullshit. If we aren't meant to be than why faith brought us together? There were so more place I could or you could go but we ended up in the same city. I won't let you go. I will be there for you. I will be there and will never let anything like that happen to you ever aging."
"I thought that you will hate me for losing your baby." I said and he looked up cupping my face in his hands.
"Sometimes you can be so stupid Bella." He said and kissed my forehead.
"Can we not talk about that topic anymore?" He nodded and hugged me.
Next morning I woke up founding myself in Edwards arms. I snuggled closer to him. I missed this feeling for so long. I remember how in first year I sneaked in to Jaspers bad. He never complained about it.
Edward smelled the same. Like Edward. I can't believe I told him last night, but he got right to know and its better he hears it from me not fro Alice or Jasper.
I thought that he would hate me, but he just seemed to care for me more. We talked a lot last night. We decided that it's time to forget all that shit and live our lives, be friends again. I promised that I won't go and talk shit about faith and he promised that he won't push me in to anything.
I leaned up and kissed his lips. He smiled and opened his eyes. "Morning." He said and his grip tightened around my waist. "How was your sleep?" he asked and stroke my hair.
"God. I haven't slept this good in years." I admitted and he chuckled.
"We should get up and go check on Rose." He said and I hold him tighter.
"One more minute please. It's just feels so fucking good to be in your arms. I know I'm such a bitch playing these fucking games with you, but I missed you terribly."
"It's okay Bells." He kissed my forehead. "No matter what you do I'm forever yours." He said and I smiled.
