-1Missed and Missing
Edward POV
I never thought I would hear myself say I was more than ready to go back to Volterra. I was ready to go back before I even left. Being away from Bella is killing me. I am missing her so bad the pain of separation from her is indescribable. If what I am feeling is the same for other mated vampires, I don't know how my father makes it away from my mom when he has to travel. I don't think I am going to make it.
Aside from the pain of being away from my mate making me miserable, these immature girls at this school don't help either.
When my family first arrived we were hit by waves of curiosity and I understood that. You would have thought after we had been here for a couple of years and the fact that we don't try to actively socialize with them would have given them a clue to stay away. I can assure you it hasn't Jessica Stanley and Lauren Mallory are the two most annoying and persistent girls on the planet.
If I have told them both no that I didn't want to go out with them once I have them thousands of times and still they don't give up. Here Jessica is like a lap dog barking trying to get my attention.
"Hey Edward, where have you been? I've been missing you these last few days.", she said sticking out her bottom lip in a pout.
Damn for her sake, I hope she didn't think she looked sexy like that. Bella on the other hand was just too cute for words and sexy as fuck when she does it. That girl could have anything she wants when pouts and looks at me through her thick eyelashes.
I know I haven't known Bella very long but she is my mate and I can't help that she has that effect on me.
"You might as well keep on missing me because after this week, I'm out of here for good. I'm moving out the states.", I informed her.
She looked like she was going to cry. Damn, what is it with these children?
"You're leaving me, but why? I thought we were friends and I thought maybe we could be more even. The summer is coming up. We could hang out and really get to know each other.", she said with a whine to her voice.
She was really grating on my nerves. I had tried to be nice and tell her in a nice way I wasn't interested but she wasn't getting the picture.
"Jessica, I have tried to be nice and let you know in a nice way that I am not interested in you or any other girl in this school. I have a girlfriend and when this week is up I am going back to her. Do you get it now? I am not interested in you.", I said nearly growling at her.
"Fine! It's your loss anyway. Go on back to your little hag and see if I care. When you realize that she isn't good enough for you don't come crying to me.", she told me as I was walking away.
I rolled my eyes and kept walking. Bella was everything I would ever need or want in a mate. It might take her sometime to realize but it would be worth it in the end.
Bella POV
Damn it! I thought to myself. Why is two weks taking so long to pass by.? I am missing Edward like crazy. Sure he calls me all the time but it's just not the same as having him here with me.
I miss his voice, his touch, everything about him. I'm going insane waiting for him to return. I can't help but wonder what's going on with him while he's away. Why am I feeling so possessive of him? Why do I feel like tackling him and never letting go as soon as I see him?
I know why. I finally have come to the conclusion I am in love with him and I have missed him being here and I will be missing him until he returns.
