BPOV
The few weeks after school dragged on slowly. I almost wished it would go fast.
My parents were still fighting about something of the unknown. They hadn't slept in the same bed since the night I came back from Edward's. I never said a word about it, not wanting to make something arise.
My birthday came and went like anyother birthday, though I was now a legal adult. Edward said that I could buy him cigarette's. Funny he is. This year my dad didn't even stay home, he made an excuse to have to work, on Sunday. My mother stayed home for a little while, giving me my presents. Which were some movies, a few cd's and a new digital camera. In truth, I didn't want gifts, I just wanted the fighting to stop.
But I spent my birthday with Edward. He made me feel a little better. Though he forced me to go shopping, buying me a few shirts and making me another one. This one was a bazooka bubble gum shirt. It had a peice of the bubble gum ironed onto it, he actually drew the little boy and got that on it, then he signed it in the corner. He seemed to like the bazooka theme. He got me a few shirts of my choice and one of his. He bought me a pair of converse, despite my protests, they were black with little blue stars.
Flashback
After I saw my moms car drive away Edward popped out of nowhere holding the keys to his Volvo, I smiled when I saw him.
" Happy Birthday, my love." He said.
I wrapped my arms around his neck tightly and kissed his lips quickly. After I let him go he grabbed my hand and started walking me to his car. When we got in I turned to him.
" Where are we going."
" The mall." he said simply.
" Why?"
" Because it's your birthday and you deserve presents."
In the same moment he brought out something in a small box, it was wrapped it blue sparkly paper. He encouranged me to open it and I slowly ripped it open. It was a plain white box, a clothing box. I crumbled the paper in a ball and put it to the side. I lifted up the top of the box, Edward watching me warily. I smiled when I saw what was in there. Another shirt!
" I made this one also." he said
I picked it up carefully and laughed at the logo and the familar signature in the corner of it. My smile widened and I leaned over the console to kiss him again. He kissed my back a moment before pulling away.
" Do you like it?" he asked
" I love it, Edward. Thank you so much."
He smiled and kissed me again, I rested my forehead on his and sighed.
" You spoil me too much."
" This is nothing compared to how much I will in the future. When we are married I will shower you with gifts, so get used to it."
When he thought that we would be married in the future it made me happy. He wanted to marry me eventually, he wants me. Nobody else. I sat back in the seat as he started up the car. I was used to hearing the purr of his Volvo rather then the louder noise my mercedes made.
He drove quickly to the mall while I clutched the arm rest. One hundred and twenty was on the speedometer, he was leaning in his seat smoothly, a smile on his face, one hand on the wheel.
" How can you drive that fast." I said
" I like driving fast, it's easy."
I pried my arms from the arm rest and set them shakily in my lap. He reached his hand out to hold mine and gave me a smile.
When we reached the mall I reluctently got out. Edward was all smiles, such a weirdo...
----
After we walked out of hot topic I grabbed his hand and started back towards the car.
" Where are we going."
" Home."
" But..Why?"
" You have spent enough on me."
He scoffed " Ninety four is hardly alot."
Edward pulled on my hand to release his. I let it go and let my hand drop to my side.
" I just want to go home and watch a movie with you or something." I whispered, knowing that if I said that it would reel him in.
He sighed " Fine, I give. Let's go."
----
We did get to my house and put on a movie in my room, Pirates of the Caribbean Deadmans chest. But it wasn't all on focus at the moment. Edward had his head turned towards me, his hand on my cheek and was kissing me. He was too sweet and careful for my liking but he refused to be rough with me because of the cast.
Did he always have to be so nice?
End Flashback
Today was the three month mark of having my cast on. My mother was going to be taking me in to get it off. I was excited that I would finally be able to get it off. After having it for three months it really was starting to get annoying.
She was quiet in the car, I attempted to make conversation but she gave me single word answers. It was really starting to get on my nervs. When we arrived at the hospital we went in and I requested my doctor, who soon came and brought us to a room. My mom stayed outside claiming that she had calls to make...I knew that was a huge lie.
" So Bella. How is your leg?"
" Fine, I don't really feel pain in it."
He nodded " Alright. Well lets take it off."
The doctor ripped off the velcro and when it was loose he slid it off my leg and disposed of it, thank god. He picked it up and started rotating my ankle and bending my knee. I didn't feel any pain really. The bruises were mostly gone, there were a few small blue ones but other then that it was fine.
" Well it seems to be fine. It will be normal is you feel a little pain if you walk alot. It should only last for a week, if longer then contact me. Other then that, I think your fine."
I shook his hand and smiled " Thank you."
I stood up and grabbed my other sock and shoe. I slipped both on and started to walk, it felt a little weird because I was used to the walking cast, but it was better and easier.
When my mother saw me she stood up and said nothing, we walked to the car and got in. On the way home it was way to quiet, my mother normally always had something to say, she was actually quite the chatterbox. Now she was quiet. I wanted her to talk, so I asked her about the situation.
" Mom, whats going on with you and dad?" I questioned.
" Nothing, Isabella." she said with vemon.
She pulled up to curb of the house and I got out quickly and slammed the door the hardest I could. I was pissed off at her, she was either silent or pissy. When I got in the house I went for my bedroom. I took a quick shower, shaved both of my legs, shampoo and conditioned my hair, washed my body and then got out. I put on the shirt Edward made me, my jeans, I missed wearing them, and blue star converse. I threw my hair in a high ponytail and jogged down the stairs. When I got downstairs my father was home and they were bickering, again, in the foyer. I took a deep breath and clamped my mouth shut.
Their heads snapped up when they saw me. I grabbed my white hoodie from the hook and slipped it on and zipped it up halfway.
" Your going out now? It's seven and you have school tomorrow, Isabella." my father said.
" Whatever, I'll be back. I would appreciate it if you would stop yelling by the time I get home." I said angrily before walking out of the house and jogging towards Edward's house, ignoring the slight pain in my leg.
When I reached his house I ran the doorbell. Dr. Cullen answered the door, looking annoyed to see me. I knew Edward was home, his Volvo was in the driveway. Dr. Cullen moved to the side and I walked through.
" Good evening, Dr. Cullen." I said polietly.
He nodded. I knew that he still didn't like me around, but I wasn't go anywhere anytime soon, he would get over that sometime in the future, I hoped. I walked up the stairs to Edward's room. When I opened the door he was laying on his bed, his Ipod earbuds in his ears. I shut the door quietly, not wanting to disturb him. I walked over to his bed and sat down, when he felt the bed dip he looked up and saw me. I laid next to him and rested my head on his chest. He reached up and took his earbuds out, staring at me worriedly.
" What's wrong?" he asked me.
" My parents...dont mind me, just listen to your music. I only needed to be by you."
His hand rubbed up and down my back soothingly and I leaned into him. He put his earbuds back in his ears and I played with the hem of his shirt. Every few minutes he would drop a kiss ontop of my head.
After a little while he turned off his Ipod, he wound the earbud wire around the black Ipod and set it on the end table next to his bed.
"What's going on in that beautiful head of yours?" he questioned.
" Too much." I mumbled against his blue button up shirt.
Edward didn't question me furthur, he just kept rubbing my back.
" Sweetie, I have your laun-"
He sat up and looked by his bedroom door.
" Oh, mom. Just set it on the dresser, I'll take care of it later." Edward said quietly.
I heard shuffling for a few minutes before Esme spoke.
" Is she alright, Edward?"
" She'll be fine." he answered her.
I heard the bedroom door close.
" So you got your cast off?"
" Mhm."
He shifted me around and pulled me up to look at him.
" Smile. I don't like it when your all sad."
I gave him a weak smile, he didn't like that. He frowned at me.
" I'll give you a kiss if you smile."
With a deep breath I gave him my best smile, teeth and all. He smiled back and kissed me on the lips quickly.
" Hey! That smile took effort. More." I complained.
" Greedy."
I rolled my eyes " Damn straight. Now plant those here."
He kissed me again, longer this time. When he was about to pull away I tangled my hands in his hair and kissed him deeper. I felt his hands run up and down my sides, over my waist to my hip, then up further to rest in my hair, tugging slightly. I moved infront of him so I was staddling his lap, he let out a loud moan when I accidentally shifted wrong. I stayed still a moment but still kissed him, almost testing.
" Your dangerous." he murmured against my lips.
" And your a lust ridden seventeen year old." I retorted.
" I blame you for being so damn sexy."
Just to prove his point I swung my hair over my shoulder and peered down at him under my eyelashes. He groaned.
" If I had a camera to capture this... Your crazy."
I moved my face so my lips were by his ear " But you love me." I answered.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me flush against his body. He smashed his lips against mine and kissed me hungrily, his hands roaming over my back and waist. Edward deepened the kiss and his tongue danced skillfully with mine. I cocked my head to the side and pushed against him. His hands traveled down shoulders and over my chest. He unzipped my hoodie and threw it somewhere in the room, a small laugh escaped me but I kept kissing him.
My body felt like a live wire, everywhere his hands were left a blaze of fire in it's path. His touch was electric on my skin.
"I'll leave you home if you don't
leave me at the front door. Your
bodies cold but girl were gettin'
so warm. And I was thinkin'
about ways that I could get
inside. Now were falling in love,
here we go now. This feelings
turning me up."
The sound of my ring tone echoed through the room. I dug into my back pocket and took it out, pulling away from Edward. He groaned as I answered my phone.
" Bella, hey. I know it's kinda late but I was wondering if you would help me after school tomorrow for birthday party invitations again?"
I took a deep breath before answering " Yeah, sure." I answered
Every year Angela had a birthday party and had to hand write out addresses, I help her out each year because there is too much for one to handle.
" Thanks, Bella. So what are you up to."
I rolled off Edward and rested my head on a pillow.
" Nothing really. Just chillin' with Edward." I replied
" Oh, did I interupt something again." she said, kinda loudly.
" No." I said just as Edward yelled " Yes" next to me.
I laughed
" Sorry Edward." she yelled into the phone as I pulled it away from my ear,
" Don't worry about it Ang, I can be with him whenever."
She laughed on the other end " Alright, well you two can fun. But not too much, bye."
" Bye, Angie." I said, using my nickname for her.
" Bye, Bellerina." she sang before hanging up.
I canceled the call and put my phone in the front pocket of my jeans. Edward curled up next to me and placed kisses on my neck. I let out a girlish giggle and shoved him.
"Edward! Baby, I need some water. "
When I tried to sit up he pulled me back down.
" Seriously, Edward. I'll be back."
I pried his hands off me and he made a weird whining noise before I slipped out of the room. When I got downstairs and into the kitchen it was dark and quiet. I grabbed a water bottle from the fridge before walking back towards Edward'd room. I ran into Dr. Cullen on my way up, he quirked a brow at me.
" Shouldn't you be heading home?"
" Soon." I said quietly before walking upstairs, Dr. Cullen walking behind me.
I slipped into Edward's bedroom quietly. It was now dark in the room, I heard Edward's even breathing though. After taking a few large gulps from the water I laid on his bed. I felt Edward's arms wrap around me tightly.
"Mmm, tired." he mumbled.
" I should head home, I'll see you later though."
He kissed my cheek " Okay, I love you."
" Love you, too."
I gave him one more kiss before standing up and grabbing my water bottle. Edward was over the covers, but half asleep wearing shoes. I slipped his shoes off and put the covers over him before leaving. When I got outside I grabbed the key from under the mat and locked his front door.
Luckily when I was home it was somewhat quiet, but lights were on in the kitchen. I walked in, gripping my water bottle. My father and mother were both talking quietly.
" What's going on?" I asked
Both my parents lifted there head to look at me. My dad opened his mouth to answer
" It's never happening Charlie so don't even." my mother said.
My father ignored her and stood up to look at me. " I'm moving to Forks, Washington, I got a offer to be cheif of medicene and I want you to come with me." he said sternly.
In that moment, my world came crumbling down. I stared at him.
" What? But this is home, what do you mean just me. What about mom?"
" We both want different things, it's not working." my mother said quietly.
" A divorce! What, why?"
She shook her head and looked down.
" I have to be there by the twenty eighth and I want you to come with me, Bella."
Edward passed through my mind. No way in hell I would willingly leave him, never.
" No! I'm not leaving. Edward...I can't. No!" I exclaimed.
" Your coming with me, Bella. It will be good for you."
This was all to much to handle at one time. My parents were fighting about me leaving, my mother didn't think I could handle not seeing Edward, while my father didn't care. He just wanted me to stay away from Edward.
Then they were getting a divorce. I would have never thought that in a million years that my parents would even consider getting a divorce. They always took vacations and went out together when they could.
" I can't leave him. I wont. You can't make me." I yelled at him.
" Don't raise your voice at me."
" The hell I won't. If you think for one fucking second that I would consider leaving Edward then your out of your fucking mind." I retorted before spinning on my heal and leaving.
No. I was never leaving Edward.
" If you take one more step, Isabella then I will ship you ass all the way to China. You don't speak to me like that."
I turned around and stared at him. " I love him and you don't like that I have someone else that makes me happy. You only think of yourself. You don't want Edward here because you have a problem with his family. It always goes back to you, your so selfish and can't you ever think of me for once, or how I would feel."
" I am doing this because of you. I want to take you for you because he will only cause a heart break." his loud voice echoed through the house
" If mom stays here then you can't keep me from her. I am a legal adult now." I said.
" All I want is for you to stay with me for your last year in highschool and next summer."
Tears dripped down my face and sobs ripped through my chest. I closed my eyes and turned away from him. My shoes hit the hard floor as I walked away from him, he called my name behind but I ignored him. I climbed the stairs quickly and went into my bedroom, I slammed the door and locked it. I dropped on my bed sobbing.
I couldn't live without Edward. He was apart of my inner being, it would be like my whole heart was ripped out and missing. I wouldn't see him until next August if I left. That would be eleven months without Edward, without my love.
Without my heart.
