Return

It had been ten long agonizing years without my one true love. The pain that burnt a permanent hole in my still heart swallowed my heart whole as I drove into the small town of Forks.

It had all been Alice's idea to move back to see the progress Bella was making in her human life. It was such a stupid idea since she could see the future anyway. Alice claimed to see nothing. Carlisle decided to call this investigation a "vacation". I just wanted to turn the car around and drive into the cold, dark night to just remember the good times we had together. Something stopped me though, curiosity maybe? I wasn't sure. I really didn't know what I wanted any more. My life was just one black hole. Life has no meaning when the only one that makes my heart beat, was not with me. We arrived at our old place, the place I was planning to propose to B... her. This house had too many memories of her nestled in every corner. This was going to be harder than I thought.

"Edward," Alice called from her car, a yellow Porsche with a black streak down the middle, "please get the mail, if there is any." Muttering under my breath, knowing her sharp ears would hear it I go trudge down to the letter box and check it. To my surprise, there were two letters , both addressed to me.
