Chapter two: Changes

It's not long before I'm home. As I approach my back door I begin mentally preparing myself for my mother sat there drinking a bottle of wine, crying at the wedding album. My father's boxes scattered all over the house as he hasn't exactly found somewhere permanent to live just yet. As I approached the door I could hear laughter I slowly step in to the kitchen and see my mother and father dancing in the kitchen like they used to when they were happy.

"Bella you are late for dinner" My father pulls me into a twirl and I begin wonder what's going on. Not only have we not eaten dinner as a family in six months but when I left this morning my mother was opening her first bottle of wine.

"Dinner? What are you guys like back together now?" I frown at them not understanding the situation at all. They both look at me with shocked looks on their faces.

"Back together…when were we ever apart" my father speaks so casually I look at them blank faced for a moment, waiting for one of them to laugh or something.

"Is this some kind of sick joke?" I blurt out and they both take a step back from me. they looked about as confused as I was "The divorce papers came in yesterday and now your all happy, whats going on?"

"Divorce? Who's getting a divorce?" My mother looks at me concerned.

"You are" I yell at them and they laugh as if I've just said the most absurd thing ever.

"That's enough joking around for now Bella, Jake will be here soon you should get changed" Jake did my mother just say Jake?

"Jake…as in Jacob Black? As in the guy I used to date a few months back?" I say my mouth drops open.

"You broke up? But he was only here yesterday and you both looked happy? He even called to confirm dinner?" She rushes over to me. something strange is going on here.

"I'm going to my room" I could not wait to get out of there and find out what was going on. I race up the stairs missing as many steps as possible. When I get to my room I shut my door to block out the sound of my parents. I plug my phone into the charger and wait patiently for it to switch on.

As I wait I notice my bedroom window is wide open, I walk over and look outside into the woods, it had gotten dark fast my phone beeps letting me know its coming back to life. I turn and on my window chair I notice an envelope, had that always been there I pick it up and it had my name on it.

Dear Bella,

By now you may have noticed some strange things. I want you to not question it and just go with it. I want you to be happy promise me that you will not come looking for me. This is everything you ever wanted.

Edward.

Even the writing was handsome. Did he not want to see me again? I guess I read him all wrong. Does he know what's happening here? I need answers, I need….what's his name to give them to me. I look down at the note once more, what strange things? Who is Edward? I should get ready for dinner Jake will be here soon. I place the note in my pocket and have a quick change of top, looking in the mirror my brown hair was looking wind swept…wait brown? I dyed my hair Blonde? Didn't I? I blink a few times and my entire room has changed what was happening.

"Bella, Jake is here and dinner is ready" my father yelled up the stairs. I quickly pat down my hair gently and then make my way down stairs. "Are you feeling better Bells?" my dad asks giving me an awkward hug, I just nod not knowing what he was talking about. I see Jake walk in his dark hair styled like a member of a boy band, his features where dark but I liked that about him. He smiles at me and gives me a big hug. Something doesn't feel right though.

Dinner was worse it was all full of empty conversation about things we have done together that I can't remember. It wasn't long before it was over and Jake and I headed to my room to study. We sat on my bed and Jake leans in for a kiss. I could feel his breath against mine, our lips lock together with passion I close my eyes, bronze flashes through my mind, he's kissing my neck gently nibbling his one hand is tugging the hair at the nap of my neck. I close my eyes again as his hands run slowly down my back to the top of my jeans, I see dark black eyes flash in front of my eyes. Jakes hand moves to my bum and he slides his hand into my back pocket. He stops for a second and squeezes I shut my eyes and I see a boy sat in the rain with a smile that could melt a thousand hearts. Who was he. Jake sits back for a moment it was at this point I noticed he hadn't said anything since being up stairs.

"What is this?" He asks holding a piece of paper, it looked familiar like something I had seen I a dream. "Who is Edward? And what's strange and why can't you go find him?" Jake frowns at me and I read the note again. I close my eyes the cliff flashes in my head.

"I have to go Jake, I don't know what this is but I need to find out" I jump off of the bed but Jake catches my arm.

"Don't do this Bella this could be fine leave him" it was this point I realised he didn't sound like Jake anymore. "Stay" he whispers.

"I have to go it's just something I have to do" I could feel the memories fading this time like someone was pulling them out of my brain. I had to go before I forget what I was doing. I pull free from Jake and make my way downstairs and out the back door into the forest.

I ran past a tree, and another. Why was I running? Where am I going this late at night? Before I know it I stumble into the opening by the cliff and I look out to the sea. Why had I come here and with no coat its so cold.

"Bella?" a deep voice startles me, I turn to see a boy with perfectly messy bronze hair stood near a fallen down tree. "I was hoping you would come back and find me" he smiles at me who was he an how did he know me. He begins frowning "What's wrong?" he looks familiar like a dream I once had is that possible.

"Do I know you?" I whisper, before I knew it he was in front of me looking into my eyes "Look, I think you have the wrong girl" I say shoving my hands awkwardly into my pockets no way could he be thinking I'm the girl he wants. I feel a sharp piece of paper in my hand and pull it out to read it.

"What's that?" he snatches it from my hand "I didn't write this where did it come from? Where did you find it?" he asks me franticly.

"I-I-I don't remember, who are you again" what was happening to me it's like my memory was a puzzle that I couldn't solve.

"Bella, you're not safe you need to come with me" he grabs my arm I feel a surge of electricity go through my body. I begin following him.

"Bella what are you doing?" I hear Jake shout from the woods. The boy pulls me behind him.

"You, you've done this haven't you?" the boy growls, "Who are you?" he pushes me back.

"I'm death" Jake chuckles "She will stay here forever" what was he talking about? I look at the boy and his eyes widen he picks me up and carries me at what feels like super speed through the woods, why was he doing this.

"Put me down!" I scream at him kicking my best we stop and I have no clue where we are. "Tell me what is happening" I frown at him, he sighs.

"It's complicated but from what I can see this place where we are isn't real and if you stay your real life will be lost for ever…Bella I need you to trust me and I need you to fight this for me please" for some strange reason I trusted him he made me feel safe I know it's stupid but I feel there is some truth in what he is saying.
