I had to leave. I had to go home and talk to Carlisle. He was the only one I could count on to help me through this. To give me some advice. I turned in the direction of home and started running. I climbed higher and higher until I was expertly jumping from one tree branch to the next. The wind whipped by and the rain hardly touched me as I glided silently through the tree tops. I was half way home when I noticed someone on the ground below. I stopped instantly and the tree swayed. It was Bella. She was crying and stumbling through the underbrush.

The sound of her sobbing made my dead heart ache. I did this to her. If I didn't lure her here, if I had control over my urges, she would have followed silently along behind the other kids from school. She would have gotten into her car and she'd be home by now.

I was overwhelmed with a rush of self hatred and I didn't know what to do. I wanted to help her but I wasn't sure how to be close enough without hurting her. I was dealing with my conflicting urges when I caught the scent of another human nearby. My head snapped up and I followed the scent, leaving Bella to her struggles.

I ran as fast as I could and when I reached the human scent I saw who it was. Mike Newton. He was calling to her but through the wind and the rain and the distance between them, she couldn't hear him. He was trying to save her. I returned to Bella and noticed that she was now walking in the opposite direction.

"Stupid Edward Cullen." She muttered to herself. I couldn't help but smile at the way my name sounded on her lips. She stumbled along and I knew I had to do something. Chances were she would run the opposite direction from me. So I took a deep breath and dropped to the ground about a few yards from where she stood.
