I don't own twilight
Like every day for the last two weeks Isabella went to the post office hoping for a letter. Her money was quickly running out and Mrs. London was pounding on her door daily demanding the room and board payment. She walked into the little building and looked at the young woman at the counter. "Angela please tell me you have something for me." She almost pleaded.
"Why yes I actually do." Angela smiled. She rifled through her pile of mail and pulled out a slightly damp letter. It looks like it's been rerouted a few times. She handed the letter over to Bella who looked down at the envelope with many directions scratched into it. She smiled in thanks at Angela before running out of the office. She tore the letter open the second she was outside. She gasped as money and a ticket fluttered to the ground. She quickly bend down and scooped them up. She scanned over the letter and rushed to the telegraph office.
"Can I help you Miss?" the man behind the desk asked.
"Yes." Bella said almost frantically I need you to send a telegram to Emmett Cullen Cistine Colorado to tell him that I will be leaving Boston on tomorrow's early stage and that it should take me a week to reach him.
"Of course miss that will be one dollar." Bella handed over the precious currency and the Telegraph operator tapped out a message. "He should have it soon miss." The man smiled and Bella nodded her head as she turned away and hurried back towards the boarding house. She hurried up to her room thankful not to run into Mrs. London and she slipped into her room. She quickly packed the few belongings she possessed. Her fingers slipped over a picture of her parents the only one she owned. As she wrapped it in one of her cotton dresses. She slipped it into her bag and closed the latch she sat it by the side of the bed where she would place her dress she had on now and her night gown in in the morning. Along with the brush she would use in the morning she had so little it all fit in the medium size bag. She looked around the room. As she splashed some cold water on her face and pulled her dress off and pulled her night gown on over her head. She dropped the pins holding up her elaborate hair onto the desk and brushed her hair out. Braiding it she then climbed into bed.
That night she dreamed of what her new life may bring her. She wasn't sure but she figured it had to better then this place. The next morning she woke with the sun and she pulled out the tiny amount of cash she had to her name along with the money Mr. Cullen had sent her. She put a stack of bills and coins in one pile to leave for the land lady as she placed the rest of her worldly belongings in her bag. She grabbed it after closing it and walked down the stairs. She left a note saying she was leaving for good and on top of the note she left a pile of money. Enough to have covered her room and board. She slipped out the door and into the misty Boston air. She clutched her bag to her as she made her way to the stage couch. The money Emmett had given her safely pinned in her dress along with her stage ticket.
She walked up to the stage driver who tipped his hat to her. "Miss."
"Hello." She clutched her bag with one hand as she took her ticket out and handed it to him.
"I'll take your bag for you miss unless you'd rather hold it I'm not expecting to many people this route." The man said.
"I"ll just hold it Bella said as the man opened the door for her and she climbed into the stage. She looked around the plush interior that was peeling with age. She settled down and took her last glimpse at Boston. It felt like hours but soon the stage was on it's way it was just Bella and an old woman who had fallen asleep almost the minuet she'd entered the stage.
"Here I come Colorado." Bella breathed.
