Thanks to all the people that review the lst two chapters :D This is a little shorter than the others, and if you want, I can re-write it. Your wish is my command. Pleeeeeease review!!!
Alice,
Charlie tried to get me to move to Jacksonville again. He said there was no point in staying since he wasn't coming back. I told him I was fine, but he didn't buy it. Then he said I needed a therapist at least, because I was a loner and never saw my friends. I told him I would see Jessica tonight, so now I have to.
I realised something today. Time passes. Even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does. Even for me. No matter how much I wish it wouldn't. No matter how much I wish it would go backwards to a time when there was no pain or loneliness or aching sadness. No matter what, time passes.
I miss you, I love you,
Bella.
The Cullen household was emptier than it normally was. Edward had said he was somewhere in Brazil, Emmett and Rosalie were in Africa, and Carlisle was working double shifts at the hospital so he was gone most of the day. Jasper tried as hard as he could to be there for Alice, while Alice struggled to conceal from him how much she was suffering. Esme missed being surrounded by her family, and was feeling lonelier every day. She hadn't seen Edward in months so she missed him the most.
Bella had affected the family much more than they had expected.
As the sun fell beneath the green canopy of the forest, the dwindling family received their sixth letter from their human friend.
Alice, read Carlisle. Charlie tried to get me to move to Jacksonville again.
"That's pointless," stated Jasper obviously. "She'll never go."
He said there was no point in staying since he wasn't coming back. I told him I was fine, but he didn't buy it. Then Charlie said I needed a therapist at least, because I was a loner and never saw my friends.Alice laughed harshly. "Edward really isn't the best at making plans. He wanted her to move on, it didn't work. He wanted her to hang around her human friends, and, surprise surprise, it didn't work!"
"Now Alice, we said we wouldn't blame him," said Esme kindly. "No matter how stupid his plans were."
I told him I would see Jessica tonight, so now I have to.

The four could not express how deep the sorrow they felt was for their friend. They admired her, for her strength and tenacity. The way she tried and tried to live her life and move forward while staying in the past and holding onto them. The way she would never let them go, they could never let her her go either.
