Chapter 4: Coming Home

GEORGIA

THE BARwas just as she remembered it. She walked into the front door, and the sights and sounds immediately assailed her, familiar to her as drawing breath from all her years of living and working there. "Sissy!" People ran up to her and greeted her like the old, long lost friend she was. Here, she wasn't a superstar. People in these parts didn't think of her as Bella Swan, famous singer. To these folks, she'd always be Sissy, their friend, and their waitress.

She laughed and cried and hugged everyone in the place. She served them their drinks and their food, just like back in the old days. Some of the guys challenged her to pool and darts, just to prove she was still one of them, and she took their challenge, beating a few of them soundly. No one questioned why she was back, everyone was just happy to have their old friend Sissy home again.

Finally, the place closed, and she was able to go see her old apartment in the basement. Taking a deep breath, she unlocked the door and let herself in. Everything was exactly as she had left it. Her albums and CD's were untouched. Her posters were still on the walls. My apartment,she thought as her eyes darted around the room. Her gaze came to rest on her bed, the bed where Edward had made love to her the first time they had ever been together, the first time she had ever been with a man at all. Her eyes watered at the memory of that day.

She had shown him her recording studio and told him about her daddy. They had recorded together, something she had never done with anyone before except her father. She had given him her heart, her love, and her trust. She had given him the gift of her virginity. She went to the bed and lay down on it, pulling her old, worn comforter over her and hugging her pillow close. You came back for me once my love, she communicated to Edward telepathically. Will you come back for me again?
