"We don't need to talk about anything. I protected myself when danger came. I did nothing wrong. I am completely normal. You saved me Edward." I said adding charm speak on the last two sentences. He seems to accept the answer and lets me go. I wave at them and run back home.
"Apollo!" I scream as I run through the house "APOLLO! WE HAVE A SITUATION!" I feel him appear next to me and I turn around. "Where were you!?"
"I didn't hear you. Geez relax." He says as he snaps his fingers and a soda appears. He sits down on the couch and looks at me. "So what's the situation?"
I look at him with annoyance. "I had to shoot Jasper." Apollo looks at me alarmed and starts to speak. I put my hand up and continue. "No he isn't dead. He attacked me and I had to defend myself. The Cullens… I think they are suspicious and I used charm speak and I…I don't know what to do." I say as put my head in my hands. I hear Apollo get up and start pacing.
"So we have two options Artemis." He begins as I look up at him. "One, we kill them or two, we leave." I watch him as he watches me.
"I don't want to kill anybody." I say after a few minutes of silence. "It's not right." Apollo looks at me.
"Then let's go."
THE NEXT DAY
I woke up exhausted. After making a few Iris Messages and packing up almost every box we were ready to leave. I would go to school today to give them my leaving notice and Apollo is going to give the police his resignation letter. After saying bye to Apollo I made my way to school hoping to avoid all of the Cullen family.
I drove to school feeling joyful. I parked in the parking lot and took notice that none of the Cullens were here. Good. I thought to myself. This will be easier than I thought. I walked quickly to the main office ignoring the questioning stares of my classmates.
I opened the door to the overly warm office and greeted the secretary Ms. Cope. "Bella! What a surprise! What can I do for you?"
"I'd like to transfer out of the school. Here are all of my credentials. There should be no problem in completing these actions." I say to her. She stammers a little bit before nodding her head and taking my files.
"When will you be leaving?" She says after calming down.
"After school will be just fine." I say with a sweet smile and walk out of the office.
I walked to my first couple classes and told my teachers I was transferring out of the school. By 10:30, the entire school knew about my leaving. Edward and The Cullens weren't in school.
I walked into the cafeteria and was immediately swarmed by my "friends."
"OMG Bella! Why are you leaving us?!"
"Dude! We're gonna miss you!"
"Don't go!"
"Why are you moving to New York?!"
"Guys!" I say in an exasperated tone. "Can we just sit down please?" They all nod and we go to the table.
"So Bella, why are you leaving?" Mike Newton asks me in a glum voice. Ah, mortal love is so stupid.
"My Dad was noticed by the NYPD and they offered him a job. It's a huge salary. We really couldn't refuse."
"Oh but we will miss you so much!" Jessica says practically throwing herself on top of me. Everyone says their agreements.
"Yeah…" I say. I really just want to go back to Olympus for a little bit, take a nice long shower and then go back to hunting all things from the underworld. The bell rang and I said my last goodbyes to my "friends". I drove home quickly ready to sprint to the house and quickly take Apollo's chariot back into New York. Unfortunately, fate had other plans for me.
I pull into the driveway and notice Edward Cullen standing on my porch. I look up and see Apollo sitting on the roof. I glare at him and he gives me "the shush" and winks. I roll my eyes and look to Edward. I get out of the car and look at him. "Edward… Hey what's up?"
He looks grim as he forces a smile. "Come take a walk with me." I look at him confusingly before I agree and follow him into the woods. We walk for less than a minute when suddenly he turns around and stares at me.
"What?" I say with a confused smile after a few minutes of silence.
"Bella…" Oh here it goes. Something about my safety. "We're leaving." What.
"What do you mean?" I say desperate. I don't want to go anywhere with him. "I can't just leave…" Wait. The look on his face becomes sad once again. "Wait when you mean by we?"
"I mean my family and myself." Is he breaking up with me!? No fricking way. How dare he just abandon a human defenseless! "I don't want you to come with me."
"You… don't want me?" I say a little too distressed for my liking.
"No." He says firmly. Asshole. "Of course I will always love you in a way..."
"Don't" I interrupt him angrily. "Just don't even go there." He looked at me pained for a second and then continued his monologue.
"Please for my sake, for Charlie's, stay safe." Oh no promises Mr. Cullen.
"Fine." I say in a bored tone. He seems even more upset. He leans forward towards me and kisses my forehead.
"Good bye." He whispers. And then he's gone.
…
…
"SO LONG ASSHOLE!" I scream as loud as I can. I do a happy squeal and run towards my brother. He and I meet halfway and hug. "We are finally getting out of here!" He and I both laugh and transport ourselves back home.
NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE UP SOON!
