Chapter 5: Trips and awkward moments.
"But Bella, why do you want to go on this trip of yours?" Aro asked for the hundredth time.
"I just think it will be a great experience, I've never been outside of the Volturi, or Forks" I said as I dashed around my room packing. Aro stood at the door.
"Bella, I'm sorry, but I wont let you go, I don't want you to leave" Aro said quietly. He didn't want to admit it, but he was telling the truth.
I gave him my best puppy dog eyes.
He stood there staring at me. He finally caved.
"Fine, but you only get two years" Aro said.
"But everyone else gets at least ten" I wined, hoping for more time.
"Yes but everyone else isn't you" He said all fatherly and mushy.
"Fine" I said in my stubborn voice.
"Do you want me to come with you?" Felix asked, to over excited.
"Um… no thanks Felix, I've got to do this on my own" I said as Felix excitement deflated. I swear he thought we were married or something.
I was done packing.
I picked up my bag and walked over to face Aro.
"Well…" I said not sure of what to say.
"See you in two years" Aro said as he opened his arms for a hug.
I hugged him tightly before walking out of my bedroom. I looked over to see a very disappointed Felix. 'What? Did he expect me to hug him?'.

When I arrived at the airport, I realised I had no idea where Edward lived. Oh well. I'll go visit home first, then go looking for him.
******************
I left my stuff in the forest, just wanting to walk around for a while. I had no idea where I was, I was just walking. All of a sudden, I got a small hint of the scent of vampires. I followed it, firstly walking, then slowly picking up my pace.
I ended up standing in front of a rather large white house. I walked up to the door cautiously.
I knocked then stood back.
Mumbling came from inside the house.
"Geez, can't anyone get some privacy around here", then the door opened, revealing the one I believe to be Rosalie in unbuttoned jeans and a frilly pink bra.
"What?" She practically hissed at me.
"Um… Is Edward here?" I asked shyly, but can you blame me, I was talking to a girl with no shirt on and unbuttoned pants.
"No" She said as she closed the door and, by the sounds of it ran upstairs.
I walked away from the house, just wandering.
I didn't know where I was, but it was beautiful.
It was a little meadow, with flowers, and sunlight coming through the trees.
I sat down in the middle of the little circle, and stared up at the sun, engrossed in my thoughts.
'He's here, somewhere, and I'm going to find him'
