Bella's POV

Charlie was shouting at me from downstairs to hurry up. We were running ridiculously late for the airport and there was a real danger I would miss my flight. I ran down the stairs and fell on the last two steps landing in a messy pile that sounded with a loud thud. Charlie came running to me from the porch which now contained my suitcase.

I held my hand up for his help and grinned, "I'm ok." I felt lighter this morning as though a world of new possibilities had opened up to me. I felt guilty about not saying goodbye to Angela but I was sure she'd understand. I will call her when I get there.

Charlie walked me to the Cruiser, dragging my case along behind him. I tried not to laugh at the spectacle but his lack of co-ordination; which I had gained from him was extremely amusing. I burst into a guffaw at his expense and was rewarded with a glare. It feels good to laugh.

We drove to the airport in silence, each slightly apprehensive at the new situation. My plane was already boarding so I kissed him lightly on the cheek before hugging him tightly to me.

"I'll miss you dad."

I would never have believed anyone if they had told me my future. Who would believe that I'd have a vampire boyfriend and that a bond would grow with my father?

He wiped a stray tear from his eye before telling me I was welcome back anytime. Taking my suitcase from his hands, I bid him farewell and made my way to the check in desk, alone.

Jasper's POV

I had been sitting outside by the cottage all night wondering what to do. I didn't feel as though I could forgive Alice and Edward but I did miss my family terribly. Should I go home? I feel so alone. I couldn't believe Bella was leaving, although I understood why she had made the decision. I wished I was going with her. In just under a week I had fallen for her which was completely unexpected. I felt that I could be content with her in my future; the notion that she was my only need kept floating in my subconscious.

I can't let her go.

I checked my watch, it was 9am and her flight was set to leave at 10am. She would already have checked in and would be getting ready to board the plane. I sprinted to my car and without a thought to anyone's safety, sped down the high way towards the airport.

I reached it in record time; pushing through the revolving doors and looking for any sign that she was around. I could smell her scent, it lingered in the air. She's here. I began to frantically search for her, hoping that I would find her soon.

I searched all the public access points but was left disappointed...she wasn't here anymore.

There was only one thing left to do.

I sped towards one of the desks, pushing in front of the queue and demanded a ticket. I am going after her.

I had no bags so there was nothing to check in which was beneficial in circumstances such as these. Boarding the plane I paced up and down the rows of seats twice but she was nowhere to be found.

Where is she?
