Chapter Three, Painful Goodbyes. Bella's POV
We, Charlie and I, were on our way to the airport to drop me off. I wanted to leave Forks so bad, but at the same time, I wanted to stay, to hold on, and wait for- No. If I think… about him, it'll only cause me pain… and if I'm in pain, Charlie will start to worry, and won't let me go anywhere for who knows how long. I sighed, burring the painful thoughts as we pulled in to the Airport.

Walking in silence over to the ticket lady from the waiting room, Charlie suddenly came to a stop, and pulled me into a tight hug.
I looked my dad in the eye, not wanting to say my painful goodbye.
"Well…" Charlie started.
I smiled, "I'll see you soon dad… Bye."
"Bye Bells." He said, wrapping me into another hug. I laughed, and then waved as I disappeared out of the door behind the ticket taker, after –ofcorse- giving her my plane ticket.
"Bye." I whispered few minutes later before the plane started down the runway.

"Miss, it's time to go.." Said a kind voice, its owner shook me until I was fully awake.
"Huh?" I said, still drowsy.
"You're here. The plane has landed." She said.
"Oh, thanks." I got up, and walked out to where I would wait for my next plain that would take me to Italy. From there I would take a cab in to Voltera, a place in Italy. The reason I was in Italy instead of let's say… Arizona or France or whatever, was because I had won a scholarship to a College in Italy. And I was Going so soon because; A) I wanted to get away from Forks as soon as possible, and B) I wanted to look around before school started.
When… they left, I started to get buried in my work, hoping that I would be able to block them out completely… especially him, since he was the most painful one to think about… And then I met Jacob and it had already become a habit. He didn't seem to mind though. For a while there, I did other things than study, but I was still hurting… Then me and Jacob broke up, and the freakin' cycle started ALL over again.
But, the studying did seem to come in handy. That's how I managed to escape Forks, and-hopefully- some of the painful memories that it holds. I won a scholarship to a school in Italy. Charlie was happy, but worried, as always. But he let me go, if that's any constellation.

I looked out the window at the scenery passing by my window. It was all so beautiful, making me feel out of place. I sighed, turning back to the front of the cab. That's when I got my first glance of Volterra.
A/N: sorry that it's so short, I had more but….. well, I'll try to make the next chapter a lot longer!
