Forgotten Promise
Part 3:
Memories
It had to be him, same messy bronze hair, bright green eyes, and that mind blowing crooked smile that I haven't seen in 4 years, the smile of Edward Masen.
Slowly I reached out to pull the paper off the telephone pole, my vision started to blur as my hand touched the damp paper, but I tried my best not to let the tears fall. Hesitantly I pulled the paper, making it rip in the top there the staple was. My heart started to slow down as I looked down at the paper in my hands.
Looking at the picture of him brought back so many memories that I was trying so hard to forget, all from the time in my life where I was happy and laughing, where I was loved. Well, at least I thought I was….
-Flash Back-
"Bella, could I talk to you for a moment." A smooth silky voice said from behind me. I turned around slowly to see who it was. Who I saw shocked me, the newest edition to our school, Edward Masen. He came here about a month ago. The second he walked into our school he had every girl swooning over him, and following him everywhere.
"Yes" I answered quietly. I was shocked that he was even talking to me, plain, Isabella Swan.
"Well…I wanted…to know if you…" He stumbled on his words, which really confused me, every time I heard him talking to someone; he talked so politely and…well perfectly. "…would you want to go to dinner with me Saturday night?" His words were rushed; it took me a few moments to figure out what he said.
"Me" I questioned him, still not sure if I heard him right, maybe he actually asked me if I could asked someone out for him, like Jessica or Lauren. Because there was no way, no possibility Edward Masen was asking me out. No matter how many times I've wished that he would.
"Well…yes" Edward said. Edward Masen was asking me out? I must still be sleeping. Then I leaned to the side a bit, and my foot slipped under me, so naturally I fell to the ground with a loud 'thud' and well it hurt, so it could have been a dream. I looked up at Edward who was trying to hide is laugh with a cough.
He put his hand out in front of me to help me up. Of course I took the help. If I didn't I would have ended up back on my butt. Once I was up I looked up at him, his eyes looked nervous, then a thought accord to me, and of course I could help but blurt it out.
"Is this a bet?"
Edward looked shocked "No, it's not"
I looked at him questionably; I still couldn't think of a reason that he would be asking me out for. "Are you sure?" I asked again.
"Yes Bella I am," Then his face turned slightly red and he muttered under his breath "I really like you Bella."
"Oh…" I said, I was really shocked now, Edward Masen just asked me out. Sure I've been asked out before, especially Mike, he asks me out at least once a week, usually more. "Well. Yes I'd love to." I finally answered.
"Thank you! How about five o'clock?" Edward asked. I just nodded, and then the bell rang so I had to start to make my way to class. We both turned and went our separate ways. I started to think of everything that could happen Saturday night.

-New Flash Back-
Edward and I have been going out for two months now. Every girl in school would give me glares every time they see me pass. They all hated me, and I didn't care at all. This was because in these last two months I fell for Edward hard, like I thought I never would for anyone…and well I had to face it I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. (Sorry I couldn't help my self I love that line.) Most girls would still throw themselves at Edward were shirts that were way to low and skirts that were way to short, Edward just ignored them ever time.
Right now we were in our meadow (a beautiful meadow that Edward showed me on our fist couple of dates). My head was on Edward's chest, listening to his heart beat. While, Edward was playing with the figures on my hand.
Then suddenly he pulled up his, his face was inches away from mine.
"Bella?" He started but then stopped.
"Yes" I asked wanting to now what he wanted
"Can I kiss you?" He asked, I've been waiting for him to kiss me since the first date, but he never did, and I never had complained, it was good just to be with him.
I answered his question by touching my lips to his. Edward saw shocked at first not moving, I though I did something wrong so I started to back away, my face turning scarlet. Then he put his hands around me to keep me were I was, and then he kissed me back.
I melted into this body, it felt so good, and I never wanted it to end. Then sooner then when I wanted we broke apart for air.
"Wow," I breathed quietly, it was the only thing I could think of saying. Edward smiled and we went back to lying on the ground, my head to his chest. Every once in awhile he would kiss the top of my head, or turn me around and kiss me on my lips.

New Flash Back
"Do you play?" I asked as I ran my hand across the smooth white piano. We were at Edward's house, I was my first time here, and I could already tell that his parents didn't like me. They were glaring at me the second I walked in the door. Edward had warned me before we went inside that they would act like that, he also said just to ignore them, so I tried to but they were Edward's parents I wanted them to like me.
"Yes I do," He answered.
"Could you play me something?" I asked him, I would have loved to here him play. It was something I didn't know he could do.
"Sure," He said then took my hand, and he led me over to bench in front of the piano. He sat down and I sat right next to him. He started to play a song that I new very well, one my mom played around the house all the time.
"Clair de Lune?" I asked him, he looked at me shocked, but still kept playing.
"You know it?" He asked, I nodded "I never though that you would listen to classical music." Edward laughed.
"My mom loved classical music so I was always listening to it, though I only remembered my favorites." I sighed and leaned against Edward. The song was coming to an end.
"So do you have any special talents?" he asked me. I shook my head no. I didn't have any special talents, well none that I knew of anyway.
"No instruments?" again I shook my head no. "How about singing?" I hesitated and blushed before slowly saying,
"No!" I screamed. I've never been good at lying, and Edward was already good at telling if I was or not.
"So you can sing?"
"Well a bit, I mostly just write music," I answered. That was true I liked to stick to writing and have someone else sing my song.
"Do you know the song Hanging by a Moment, by Life House," Edward asked as he flipped threw his music. I told him I did; it was one of my favorite songs. I knew every word.
"I'm not going to sing," I said to him, as he put the music for the song in front of him. Then he started to play it.
"Come on, sing." He urged me. I sighed and started to sign the lyrics that I knew also well.
"Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
I'm closer to where I started
Chasing after you
I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you" Edward smiled that sweet crocked smile, my favorite smile. I laughed then continued
"Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me now...
I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
And I don't know what I'm diving into
Just hanging by a moment here with you" I stopped there not wanting to embarrass myself with my any more.
"That was lovely Bella," Edward Said and kissed my forehead.

Back To Present
Tears were flowing out of my eyes now, I really missed him. We have so many good times, and I loved him so much. Looking back down at the paper in my hands I noticed the bold words for the fist time. It read...
"All the way from England," I stopped myself from reading so I could take a deep breath to calm myself down. Then when I finally could I continue reading "The famous null Edward null" It was really him the person who gave me the beautiful ring that was still on my figure today. The person who broke my heart 4 years ago, the person I was still in love with.
I felt a hand lightly touch my shoulder; I turned around to find Alice looking at me with wide eyes.
"He'll here in New York, on a tour to raise money for hospitals." She told me sadly.
"You knew," I yelled at her, she flinched and nodded. I felt to betrayed, Alice knew how much I loved him.
"I don't want you to feel any worse then you already did" Alice yelled back at me. "I was the one who saw you when he first left, I saw what it did to you, and do you think I wanted that to happen again?," tears were started to form in her eyes too.
"I know Alice, I'null sorry." Now I was crying hysterically now. Alice held her hand out for me to give her the paper that was in my hands.
"No, I'm going to need this." I told her. She shook her head.
"Why would you need a picture of him," She asked
I pointed to the number on the bottom, "I need to know why he never came back Alice, I have to talk to him." I said as I fiddled with the ring on my fourth finger.
"That' not a good idea, not at all." Alice pleaded
"I have to," I said "I'll call the editors tomorrow to see if they have any tickets, backstage passes... anything." I sighed "I'm sorry Alice but this is something I need to do, and I will do it."
