Bella's POV:
I stepped through the threshold of the foyer and let all of my defenses down knowing that I was going to get bombarded with all of kinds of memories and feelings just by walking back into this house. Off to my right was the large living room that housed Edward's piano. Everything was still the same, they did not take much with them as far as furniture because they were not suppose to stay in London more than two years then they were all coming back. I kind of threw a wrench in that plan for them but they left everything still so when Emmett or Alice would come back for a week or two they would have some furnishings here for their stay. As I walked in to this room I could still hear echoes of their voices from all of the times we had sat in this room listening to Edward play the piano or talking on the couches about what we were going to do that night. I smiled a little thinking about them. I went further into the house and walked down the hall to the family room. I stopped in this door way remembering the last sleep over we had here. It was all six of us camped out in this room two days before they moved. We were so young and naïve that night thinking nothing would come between any of us. We were not going to let an ocean and another country stop any of us from staying in touch with each other. We were a family and families stuck together; I grimaced at that thought when I needed all of them the most none of them were here.
Flashback:
We were in the family finishing up watching Serendipity a great love story and I sat and looked at all of my friends and realized this would be the last time we would all be together. I tried to ingrain all of their voices and faces into my memory so I just sat back and watched them all with each other. I could help that my eyes started watering in two days time they were all leaving. Jasper and Rose were in college and had transferred to a small college near the Cullen's new home in London so they could be with Emmett and Alice. I was really going to be on my own for the first time in my life and the thought of that terrified me. Sure I had other friends at school and around Forks and La Plush but I was closet to the five other people in this room. I sighed and knew tomorrow would be even harder for me. I was saying goodbye to everyone else but Edward he had convinced his parents to let him stay one extra day so we could have that one together just the two of us.
"Bella what are you thinking about? You look so lost."
"Alice I was just sitting trying to put all of faces into my memory so I could hold onto the memories."
"Oh Bella stop fretting I told we will only be gone for a short while and we will come back to visit."
"Rose you and everyone else will be together still and I will be here all alone it just finally hit me that is all."
At that moment I think it hit all of them also that I would be by myself for my senior of High School. They all looked at me with wide eyes and no one said a word for a few minutes. The next thing I knew I was being engulfed by five bodies all hugging and kissing my head. They all promised me that day they would always be there for me no matter where they lived in the world just call they would all come back.
End of flash back
I wiped the tears from my eyes and turned my back on the room and went back out to Edward's piano. I sat here for a moment and lightly brushing my hands over the keys so they would not make a sound. Well it was now or never, I got my cell out of my pocket and called my other partner in crime.
"Hello"
"Hey Emmett I am here. I am ready for you to give him the letter."
"Are you sure about this Bella, I mean once you do this there is no going back."
"Em this is something I should have done a long time ago, and you know this."
"Alright do you want me to keep you on the phone while he is reading it?"
"Yeah I want to know what his reaction to the letter is and whether or not he will take the plane ticket."
"Okay let me go see where he is "
It was quite for a few moments and then I heard his voice for the first time in almost five years. It still took my breath away and I knew Emmett heard me gasp on the phone I just could not help it. He had a voice that just made you swoon.
Emmett's POV:
"Hey Edward, can I see you few a minutes up in my room I have something I need to discuss with you before Lisa get's here."
"Sure Emmett what is this about?"
"I will tell you once we get up there."
I knew this was going to rock his world hell it was not even my situation and when I found out I was totally dumb founded and crushed for Edward and Bella. I knew she needed to finally tell him but a part of me wondered would it be better for him to never know and just move on with his life. Once we entered my room I shut and locked the door and picked up my cell that was sitting on my bed. Edward just gave a funny look but I gestured for him to sit on my bed. Went to my desk and pulled open the draw and handed him the letter that would change his life.
Bella's Pov:
"Okay, I just gave him the letter."
"Oh God, is he reading it yet Emmett."
"No"
"Tell him to read it please"
I listened as Emmett told him to open the letter and read what was inside. He asked who it was from and Emmett told him he would find out once he read it. I just sat and listened and waited to see how Edward would take this. This letter could possible change my and Edward's lives from here on out I was a nervous wreck and started pacing in the living.
