Chapter 9
I miss him… so much… This day is dragging on forever without him home… but I guess with him going to med school and working a part-time job on the side, he only has so much time for me. I got up and cleaned my room, the house, and made some brunch. I was enjoying my food when the doorbell rang.
"Coming!" I shouted. "Who is it?" I asked through the door.
"UPS Delivery ma'am." A voice said.
"I'm sorry, the owner of the house, Mr. Cullen, isn't here at the moment." I said as I opened the door smiling at saying Edward's last name.
"It's addressed to a Miss Isabella Swan… Is she available?" He said with an enveloped package in his hands.
"Um, yes, that's me…" I said as he handed me the package.
"Ok miss, I need you to sign here and I will be on my way." He said with a forced smile.
I signed and thanked him.
After closing the door I jumped on the couch to see who it was from. It had no return address… I opened it slowly and a tiny index card fell to the floor. I picked it up and saw no writing so I flipped it over and instantly froze. In black marker in said, "I know where you are Isabella, you can't hide from me for much longer… - J. Black". I threw the card and envelope away from me, I was afraid to even move. I ran into Edward room, locked the door behind me, and called Edward all at the same time.
Ring… ring…
Come on Edward, pick up… I need you
Ring… rin-
"Hey Bella, what's up?" Edward said cheerfully.
"Edward! You need to come home now!" I shouted, the fear apparent in my voice.
"Ok, I am on my way."Edward said tensely. "Hey, Mr. Carter, I have and emergency that I need to attend to, I'm sorry but can I finish my shift another time?"
I heard a voice in the back ground answer, "Sure thing Edward, take care."
Neither one of us spoke to again until he was in his car.
"What's wrong Bella?" He asked.
"It's Jacob! Edward, He knows I'm here!" I screamed.
All I heard from the phone was the screech from the car tires as Edward slammed on the gas to get here as fast as he could.
I know this short but I wanted to build up the suspense… so if you really want to know what happens, Review, review, review!! Thanx guys!
