As the plane descended from its 13,000 foot height, the thoughts of the past two years flooding my head. When I had left forks those two short years ago, I was broke. I had thought that I was beyond repair and could never find myself again. Which all happened to be complete bullshit. I had lived thorough the worst heart break Id ever experience. It had taken time, but I had accepted that it was not my fault that Edward and his family had left me.
They had just left, without a single goodbye, well with the exception of Edward. He had made a big drama of taking me the in woods just to tell me that I was unworthy of his love. What a crock. But I had gotten over that bitterness; when I realized it was him that wasn't worthy of my love. After I came to this realization, all the hate, pain, and bitterness faded. Then I was able to live again.
I began to talk. To feel. To laugh. You know the feeling of find something that you had lost after a long time? That was the feeling I had when I found myself. It started with simple things like listening to music again. I remember being in the kitchen with Renee, baking of course, when she turned on the radio. The familiar tune filled my ears and my heart. I closed my eyes, as my hips started to sway, and the lyrics of Mud On The Tires by Brad Paisley filled the room. Its funny how Id forgotten things like what I got for my fifth birthday, when I lost my first tooth, and yet I remembered every word to that song.
I started to sing the that on the top of my lungs. Boy was Renee surprised, but I could see the relief in her eyes. And the smile that spread across her face? Ill never forget it, and even now I smiled at the memory.
Hello, this is your pilot, thanking you for choosing American Airlines as your travel service. We are preparing for landing, and are asking everyone to return to their seats and buckle up. Once again thank you.
I bundled my seat belt and prepared for landing, I always hated this part. As the plane began to shake, I squeezed my eyes shut and focused on my breathing. When I felt the tires touch the runway, I breathed a sign of relief. Exiting the plane was a blur, because my thoughts were flooded with a certain tan colored boy and of course charlie. I had made good to my promise to both of them and called once a week. At first me and charlie didn't have much it say to each other, but that changed when I started to heal. I began to tell them about all the activities Renee insisted dragging me through. Which included but certainly weren't limited to: the beach, rock climbing, and shopping. We spent almost every week of the summer lounging on beach towels under the Florida sun. It was definitely called the sunshine state for a reason. Even I, who was considered an albino, had developed a nice glow. I had to admit, I would miss the sun, but it was time to come home.
So as I exited the terminal, I smiled and silently told forks, I told you so. Because this was later and I was back.
