Chapter Five

Thanks for your reviews :)

Thursday:

My pencil rested lightly on the page and I frowned as I contemplated on what to draw. Drawing was one of my favourite pastimes, but I didn't do it very often. One, I never knew what to draw, two I couldn't even draw very well, and three, I never had much time anyway to strengthen either of those points.

At a lack for anything else to do, I doodled aimlessly on the blank page and gazed out the window, watching a young girl and her Labrador stroll past my apartment building. The timer went off on my iPhone and I sighed, knowing it was time to go out and buy the groceries for dinner. I'd be eating alone of course; everybody else I knew had their own families to eat with. The thought was slightly depressing. I tossed the pencil lightly so it landed with a clatter on my desk and was just about to grab my sketchbook when I froze.

Drawn so lightly that it was almost invisible, two pairs of eyes, identical to Edward's, stared up at me from the seemingly innocent sheet of paper.

Great, so now even my subconscious was obsessed with him?

Should I even bother tomorrow?

Friday:

'One more day, one more day,' my inner voice kept chanting. I was trying very hard not to remember the reason why tomorrow was so important, but such a thing was proving very difficult. I was going to try and forget about him for one more day, because after tomorrow it would be pointless; I might as well have peace for one more day.

I should've known that this would be impossible.

This time, however, it wasn't my fault.

I woke up groggily in the morning to the sound of my phone ringing incessantly.

'Oh, go the hell away,' I muttered, but wiped the offending, gross, nameless thing out of my eyes that formed whenever I slept, and answered the phone anyway.

"What?" My tone wasn't generous today, and it wasn't just my early wake-up call that I was pissed about.

"I'm sorry I called so early but I'm just so excited." One of my good friends, Kate, squealed from the other side of the line.

Perfect.

"Tomorrow is going to be so fun! Alice only told me just now, being a bridesmaid is going to be awesome! You're so lucky that you're the maid of honour, although I'm glad I don't have to face Rosalie's wrath. Boy is she going to be pissed."

"Oh I know." Was all I could manage to mutter.

"I'm so glad I've got Garrett for a partner. I mean, imagine having a total stranger as your partner. How awkward would that be?"

"Yeah," I said, my voice as monotone as I felt.

"What's up? You sound… tense?" she asked. "Is it because Edward is your partner, because I know you had a total obsessive crush on him in high school."

"Shut up!" I hissed.

"I see you're not in the mood to talk…" she trailed off.

"Can you call me back later? I have some stuff to do," I lied.

"Sure thing." Her voice had lost its previous zeal and I felt a little guilty for stealing it from her.

I sighed in relief. "Thanks, bye."

"Bye."

I ended the call, a grimace present on my face.

It seemed I needed to face reality, I couldn't pretend otherwise any more.

I was going to see Edward Cullen again.

Saturday:

Oh shit, it's the day.

I gave you guys a pretty long chapter (for a drabble that is). Please be awesome and review!
