Chapter 3: Goodbye
Bella Pov
I have been traveling around for a while. But never looking for him. I decided that if he didn't want me, or love me anymore, than neither should I.
During my first few years as a vampire, I did nothing but remain in Forks. Mostly watch over my Dad. He was distraught by the actions of his one and only daughter. Isabella Marie Swan did not exsist any longer and has taken her own life by throwing herself off a cliff. The same one that Jacob told me about when those boys form La Push were jumping off.
Charlie really didn't beleive the story that was told to him by Sam Uley. But after a month of searching and hoping that I would return to him, my father realised the horrible... well lets say truth, before him.
Flashback
Charlie's POV
I was sitting down on the couch enjoying the game that was playing on tv. I checked the clock, and it 10:30 pm. That was odd, usually Bella would be home write now. She has been like a zombie for 2 months now, not doing anything. I really should call Renee and possibly get her to take Bella with her to Jacksonville with her. I can't stand seeing Bella like this.
A hard knock on the front door brought me to my senses. Why would someone be knocking on my door so late in the night. I konw being the Cheif of Police is somewhat of an important job but still, they would've went to the station first, and I didn't receive any prior notice of this.
"Coming!" I yelled. Stiffly getting out of the chair. Getting older really had taken a toll on me but at least I still had Bella, maybe she have kids and then I would be able to play with them and help her take care of them. All without the dumb moron who broke my daughter's hert. I swear that if i ever see him again, i will land his ass in jail. No matter what Carlisle meant to me, my daughter means more to me than anything in the world.
I unlocked the deadbolt, and slowly opened the door. To my surprise I saw Billy, his son Jacob, and Sam Uley. The all looked so sad.
"Come in guys, it raining outside." I said.
"Charlie, you may want to sit down," Billy started, "It's about Bella." What?? Bella, my girl, my friend, something was worng with BELLA.
"What about Bella!" I wass already starting to get emotional. "What's wrong with her... Where is she."
"Isabella Swan has perished, taking her own life by jumping off a cliff. We fear that the dangerous current had pulled her under, and brought her body out to sea. WE have many people looking for her, but nothing can be found, no blood, no hair, nothing at all."
"Bella's... gone." and thats where I blanked out.
End of Flashback
Bella's POV
I never actually saw his reaction when they told him I was dead. But my gift allowed me to read their minds. I serveral differnt parts of a gift, I could read minds, change them, and make illusions. Such as giving charlie the illusion that I had never exsisted. But I never did that, because once you have etenaty to live, I don't want to feel guilty of making my father think that I never had lived at all.
My father remained alive for the next 5 years, after I died. His life was taken by cancer, and he dided a slow and painful death. I kept my distance from him for the first 3 years after my death, because I still had to practice self control around humans. During which at this time I did night soures, online courses, and practiced to keep under control. I stuidied to become a nurse. Being a vampire has its advantages, and I finished medical school in 3 years only. I then went to the hospital where Charlie was in, and got my first job.
I couldn't have any better luck, because my job was to take care of Charlie when the doctor was not around. I would stay by his bedside. He was so full of cancer, he didn't recognise me.
Several time his heart had stopped, and i would have to restart it again. I just couldn't let him go.
"Nurse," A hourse voice came into my ear. I looked down to see Charlie barely seeing me through his tear-filled eyes.
"Yes Charlie," I kept my mask on, so that he couldn't see my face, and this was the first time he had awoken in 6 weeks.
"Nurse, am I dieing," asked charlie. If i could weep i would've. Me taking care of my father, and he not knowing who I was. "because if I am, I want you to put this on my daughters grave for me. " I looked down and in his hand there was a golden locket. The one that I saw in his room, but never looked into.
"Of course, sir." I couldn't help it, I removed the mask because I knew my father only had minutes left. He looked up slowly, and I saw his eyes close forever, but a smile was etched upon his face.
"Goodbye Dad."
