Disclaimer: I wish I owned Edward, I would do naughty things with him. :p But! I don't! Stephanie Meyers does...

Edward's POV

Today is always a bad day. It is the anniversary of the day I left her, Bella, my beautiful angel. The day I destroyed my life, to save hers..

How I had managed to survive seventy years without her is beyond me. Everyday felt like a year, every year felt like a century. I was in constant sorrow, a shell of who I used to be. Most days I lay curled up in a ball, letting my misery have me. On the off chance I got up, I would hunt, my thirst never seeming quinched. Something was always missing...and I knew what it was...her.

I couldn't bare to be around my family for very long, only coming home a couple of times in a year. I never stayed long though, I couldn't bare to see them miserable too.

But on this paticular day, I was home. We were somewhere in Canada, not that it mattered to me, I would be leaving again in a couple days.

Today I would most likely lay in my room all day, letting memories of the past float back to me. The grief would consume me..

Alice had other ideas however.

"Edward." She whispered, peeking her head into my room.

"What." Normally I wasn't so rude to Alice, but I knew what her intentions were, and they annoyed me.

"Edward." She pleaded. "Look..you can't sit around all day. Come to town with Jasper, Emmett, and me. It might make you feel bet..."

I sat up, really annoyed now, and cut her off.

"Alice, do you know what day it is?!" I growled.

She winced, and nodded.

"Then you must also know, nothing, and I mean nothing, could make me feel better today!"

Her expression was hurt. I sighed.

"Alice, I'm sorry for yelling. It's just.."

"I know." She said. She walked over and put a hand on my shoulder.

"I miss her too ya know."

I sighed again. I hated to upset my sister. "Alright I'll go with you."

She squeeled and gave me a tight hug.

"Oh Edward, you will not regret this!"

She bounced out of the room and started singing.

I stood up and glanced out the window. The most beautiful sunrise greeted me. It reminded me of Bella. I watched its glory, until the pinks and oranges slowly faded into grey.

"Alright Alice, where are we going?" I said flatly, as the four of us got into my Volvo.

"Town." She replied in a sing-song voice. I rolled my eyes and pulled out of the driveway.

As we rode into town, my thoughts slowly filtered back to my Bella. Her beautiful smile, the gorgeous colors in her eyes, her delicious pink lips. None of my memories had faded, it was like watching my favorite movie. I could faintly hear Alice and Emmett laughing about some prank they pulled on Rosalie earlier this morning.

I sighed and thought back to Bella again. I wish I had never left her. Why couldn't I have been selfish, and just given in to my desires? I would give anything to see her beautiful face, even if only for a moment. No. I reminded myself. She was better off without you. By now she must have grandchildren, maybe even great-grandchildren. Maybe she married Mike Newton, or maybe Jacob Black. My brows furrowed.

We weren't very far from town now. I could make out the thoughts of the people there. How simple all of their lives must be, I thought. Not having to worry about killing your loved ones.

"Pull into this parking lot Edward, were going to hit a few of these shops nearby." Alice commanded.

How had I known this was going to turn into a shopping trip? I regreted coming already.

I pulled into the nearest spot, right next to a nice Audi R8.

We all got out. I was in the middle of thinking about Bella, when I heard a strange sound. A sob came from the car next to me. How odd? Was there someone in the car? I focused on trying to hear their thoughts. Nothing.. Hmm..maybe I imagined the noise...

Alice looked to me and then the car. She was thinking of getting a red one and sharing it with me.

I studied the car more closely. I'm sure I heard something. I listened closely for a heartbeat...nothing. I guess I did imagine it after all...

Just as I was about to advert my attention, I heard another sound. I was definately not imagining things, someone was in there! They had let out a huff of air, in what I picked up as...annoyance? Hmm..how strange.

And then I remembered with a shock, there was no heartbeat coming from that car.. So this was no human, it was a vampire.

I now focused every bit of attention I had on this car. Who could be in there? Why couldn't I hear their thoughts? Maybe they had some sort of blocking power? A vampire had no reason to hide...unless they were up to something. And even in that case, why hide if you had a blocking ability? Very confused, I kept staring.

"Edward whats wrong?" Alice thought.

I looked up to Alice for a moment and then back to the car. I didn't care about anything right now, except for this car.

I was trying to see through the window, trying to find the slightest movement, when I heard yet again another noise, a gasp.

I narrowed my eyes, now very frustrated that I couldn't hear thoughts. So I did the first thing that came to mind, I bent down and knocked on the window. I heard a muttered "Crap, crap, crap!"

Shocked, I peered harder towards the direction of the drivers seat. They obviously didn't want my attention. But, why? This caught my curiosity even more. I was going to find out who was in there. Very determined, I reached down and tried to open the door. It was locked. I looked up and knocked again, and with a little force I asked.

"Excuse me? Could you open up? I have a question."

I didn't have a question, but waited none the less for a reply. None came. Jasper's thoughts caught my attention briefly.

"Woah! Where did this panic suddenly come from?..."

That was all I heard before I focused back in on the car. So whoever this was, was panicking. That means I have the upper hand. I smirked and thought of what I would do next. Hopefully my actions wouldn't provoke a fight, but my curiosity soon won me over. No turning back now...

I reached down and tore the car door off its hinges.

I heard a gasp from my siblings behind me.

Shock hit me like a brick wall. Bella was sitting in the driver's seat. Not an old, what should be 88 year old Bella, but my Bella. My young and beautiful Bella. She was here, right in front of me! Love started to overflow my heart, it was radiating out of me, I was so happy. It's as if I never left, we could be together again! Would she forgive me? Maybe if I explained...

And no sooner had I seen her, was she gone. Gone, disappeared right on the spot.

I stood stunned, staring at the empty spot where she had just been. What just happened? Was my mind playing a terrible trick on me? She never really had been there, had she? I started to panic at the idea, and was once again filled with sorrow.

"Edward, calm down, don't panic. We saw her too." Jasper said.

I let out a rush of air, not realizing I had been holding my breath. I had seen her, I really had! Oh how perfect she looked! Perfect.. That word brought out the rational side of me. Bella shouldn't have looked like that...

And as if Alice had read my thoughts.

"She...she was...she was.." She stuttered.

"A vampire." I finished for her.
