Stolen Things and Floor Boards
Bella POV
I drove home quickly, trying not to think about how serious this was. It was impossible that I could just go back in time, loosing everything I ever did the past two years. I needed to prove it to Alice though. This was all dealing with time and my future and who better to go to than a fortune teller?
Alice POV
I arrived home quickly and slowed down at the front door. I took a deep breath and tried to clear my thoughts. It was useless. I knew once I entered those doors Emmet or Rosalie would bombard me with questions about the "human" and Edward would pick through my mind. After failing at getting todays events out of my brain I resorted to singing "So Long, Farewell" from Sound of Music in my head and then translating it between various languages. I walked in the door, humming the rhythm and sure enough Emmet is there waiting for me.
"Why was that Bella girl wanting to talk to you so bad?"
"Um, she didn't want to talk to me, she just got worried when I wanted to talk to her. Apparently Edward had issues around her today and she was a bit freaked out." I was proud of my lie, it seemed believable.
"Oh, so nothing interesting?" Emmet seemed upset.
"Nope," I was grateful he wasn't pressing for details.
"Damn!" Emmet stomped out of the room.
"Wait, is Edward here?" The question got Emmet to stop. He turned around and pointed toward the ceiling above to Edward's room.
Bella POV
I fumbled with the car keys as a pulled them out of the ignition. It was moderately sunny now and no longer rainy. I stumbled out of the car toward the front door. I pushed the keys into the lock and opened the door. I looked around the house. Things looked the same, but it's not like Charlie changed the house much since I first arrived. I walked up the stairs to my room.
I turned on my computer, checking my emails.
I almost cried when I saw Renee's three emails asking how my second day in Fork's was and how my first day of school went. Everything was repeating. I remembered my mission for the proof which was going to be the wedding ring Edward had given me to wear on my ring finger. I hadn't taken off between the time I received it and my fall. I looked down at my finger, stupidly expecting it to be there. But nothing could be easy, and it wasn't there. I sighed. I looked around for anything from before, the scrap book, the c.d., the stereo system. All of it was gone. I went to lay on my bed, too tired and upset to pursue in anything requiring consciousness. Thankfully there was no homework assigned to me on my first day so I am able to just fall asleep, hoping to wake up from this nightmare.
Edward POV
I had set Claire De Lune on repeat on my stereo system. I was hoping to go into a dream like state, to get away from the world, to just run away. My life had just gotten so much more complicated when one pathetic little girl enters my 5th period class. It wasn't fair. Her blood was addicting, her thoughts unpredictable. I craved her company like I craved her blood. Though her company wasn't wanted just so I could bask in her intoxicating scent, but because she was a mystery. I wanted to find out more about her. Everything she did caught me off guard. I was sure, if I ever could here her thoughts, they wouldn't be the ones constantly coming from the average girl's mind. No, they would be different, unique, exquisite. Just like her. I had never once wanted to be with someone, let alone someone so dangerous to me. It, was a new feeling, an unimaginable high that made me feel human again, I loved it. I loved her.
Bella POV
I woke up in the morning to the annoying buzzing of my clock, I sat up abruptly looking at the date on the digital display. Great, my second day of school, relived. I groaned as I remembered my promise to Alice. If I showed up to school empty handed she might just think I had been following them which might resort in some dangerous consequences.
I rotated my body so my legs were dangling off the bed, and slid off.
I yelped out in pain as my foot came in contact with some sharp, jagged object. I looked down under my bloody foot. A bent nail was jetting out of the floor board. I kneeled down, careful to avoid the rusty nail, and swept the dust off the board. I wedged my fingernails between the board with the bent nail and the rest of the board and pulled up freeing the piece of wood.
I laughed in happiness at what I saw. My things, my lovely things from my past life were here. My wedding ring, photos, C.D. and attacked stereo were all in the dark hole. I saw the light reflecting from my charm bracelet that I received from Jacob that held his and Edward's charms. I sat there, just laughing like an idiot proud of my discovery and that I had proof that none of this was made up. I placed the ring on my finger and the bracelet on my wrist. I carefully slid the polaroid pictures of my and Edward taken on my birthday into the C.D.'s case on top the C.D.
I happily skipped down the stairs, stumbling, and catching myself on the banister. Then carefully made my way down the rest of the stairs and into the kitchen to eat breakfast. I quickly at a piece of toast and headed to my car.
Edward POV
I sat up from my couch getting ready for another day of school. I turned off Debussy and sighed, still depressed. I opened the bottom door of my dresser pulling out a small wooden music box. Inside I kept my most prized possessions. Things from my human life. I saw my parent's smiling faces looking up to me from the cracked glass. I sorted through the box scanning over everything. My eyes widened, something was missing. No, not something, two things. One, a crystal heart pendant and most importantly my mother's wedding ring, the one I was to give to my fiancee. They were gone.
Alice POV
I stumbled out of the car, trying to avoid Edward's arms that were trying to shove me out. I had been questioning about his mood. He seemed so upset, depressed, different. My gift wasn't like it usually was today. I could see nothing about Bella. No one's future involved her, not mine, not Edward's, not Mike's, not Jessica's. It was like she was off my radar. I was a bit anxious to see Bella's proof. She seemed confident yesterday about it and it should answer a lot of questions. I sat on the bench I had been so rudely forced to yesterday and waited for Bella. I didn't have to wait long before I saw her rusty red truck pull up into the parking lot. I skipped over to her door and opened it and pulled her out. She seemed a lot less surprised then I would have expected. I pulled her over to a near by picnic table and sat her down.
"Proof please," I asked.
She pulled her hand out onto the top of the table and raised her sleeve, I saw a beautiful wedding ring and a charm bracelet. I raised my eyebrows at her.
"You have proved nothing," I was disappointed.
"Oh, I guess he's never showed you the ring before then..." She seemed a bit embarrassed but then bent over to her back pack and started digging through it.
She pulled out a C.D. player and a C.D. case.
She opened the C.D. case revealing a Polaroid photograph. She handed them to me. I was in awe.
There, in ink, was a picture of my brother with his arm wrapped around a awkward Bella. They were both smiling, looking anxious to get out of the pose. I looked up at her, my mouth hanging open. She just nodded then put the CD player's headphones on my ears. Music started to play. I did not recognize the song, but I knew Edward was the composer because the song being played was too complex for any human. I listened intently. The song soon ended, and then a new one started. This one I recognized. It was Esme's song. This girl wasn't lying, she really was part of our family. Not in the literal term, but we had loved her as though she was. The ring, I realized, was her engagement ring, the bracelet must have some importance too. I started to laugh. Bella just looked at me questionably.
"Why are you laughing?" She seemed worried, like what she had given me proved nothing.
"I just never thought Edward would fall in love,"
----------------------------------
Uhg i hate this chapter, i got the character's all wrong. I had no idea HOW to end it, so i just ended it with that last line. I don't think it works but I don't know. UHG wow that was a lot of typing. I know that whole "under the floor board thing" was cliche' and unimaginable but i was worn out and couldn't think of anything else. BUT don't worry, this doesn't end the story, There is MUCH MUCH MUCH more. I repeat THERE IS MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MORE TO COME! So please continue reading, regarding this crappy chapter. And remember all reviews are welcome, critiquing only makes me a better writer!
Well thanks!
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night
Yes that does mean goodnight, i have updated 4 times in one day, i deserve a good rest. So goodnight!

BTW, ALICE can't see bella's future because to bella it is her past so (cause she's already lived it) and cause Alice can't see the past, there is nothing for her to see.
