Thanks for all the reviews! I'll try to put up a new chapter every night by 8:00 central time. I don't own Twilight, New Moon, or Eclipse.
Chapter 4: No Answer
I sat there for two hours, rocking back and forth, sobbing my heart out. Eventually I convinced myself to drive home, knowing Charlie would have a search party soon. As I drove home, the numbness, from when Edward first left, returned. Once I got home, I cooked Charlie dinner.
"Bella?" he asked.
"In the kitchen," I answered. He came in, and took one look at me face.
"Bella, are you okay?"
"I'm fine; Alice didn't show up for shoe shopping today, that's all." He frowned.
"I'll tell Billy that Jacob should call you," he mumbled. I knew he didn't mean for me to hear that, so I didn't say anything. Jacob was the last person I wanted to talk to, mostly because I hurt him so much, just a couple of weeks ago.
"I'm going up stairs." I called both Edward's and Alice's cell phone, but nobody answered.
Three days past by without an answer from any of the Cullens. Charlie got more and more worried, thinking about the last time the Cullens disappeared. I assured him it was nothing like that. I spent more and more time at the La Push beach. The cliff that I jumped off a couple months ago looked more and more inviting. Maybe it would bring him back.
No, I argued with myself. It only caused trouble last time.
But Edward wasn't with Alice. If they don't come back in two days, then I'll jump.
