Forgotten Promise
Part 8: Looking for what doesn't want to be found
Edward's point of view
New York is a big city, and I've always liked that. All the rush and commotion around you felt exhilarating. Th at wasn't how I felt today, no today I hated the fact that there was so many people is New York City is huge.
Why? Well it's making it so much harder to find Bella.
I've tried everything; I googled her, looked in the phone book, and I even started calling apartment buildings in New York and I didn't even know if she had an apartment...
I couldn't find her.
I went back on her website to look at her blog. She had updated from the last time I read it. (Link on my profile)
"Alice dragged me out to a bar yesterday. I hate clubs and bars and anyplace that serves liquor. Alice met someone there, which got me thinking about something that I really use to believe when I was in high school "you can only fall in love once" what if that's true what if I never fall in love again? Maybe you just can't fall in love with someone when you still might be in love with someone else. Does that make any sense?
'Marie White"
It made my heart ache and jump for joy at the same time.
I hated to see (well read about) her hurting. Then I was happy because she might still love me after everything I did to her unintentionally.
After forgetting she existed.
That's not something anyone wants to hear.
I sighed and laid down on my bed, I was never going to find her.
I don't know how long I stayed like that till the phone rang.
"Hello?" I answered
"Hey Edward" Jaspers voice said from the other end. "I just wanted to remind you that you have a concert at the hospital in a few days."
"How many is a few?" I asked not even remembering that I had a concert.
"3" He answered, I sighed I was going to be playing for a good cause, but this isn't what I wanted to be doing.
"Okay, so what did you do last night? You said you were going to be going out."
"I met a girl." Was all he said.
"Jasper I need more information then that. Where did you meet her? What was her name?"
"I met her at the club a few blocks from my house." Jasper said "her name is Alice"
"Did you get her number?" I asked
"Yes but I almost didn't though, she had to bring a friend home that was drunk."
"Oh"
"So, have you found anything new about the mystery girl?", He asked curiously
I had already filled him in on everything my mother had told me. At first he didn't believe me, it's not a very believable story anyway. Then after I showed him all the websites and explained everything and Jasper finally believed me.
"No, I've looked everywhere I just can't find her," I sighed
"Well she's somewhere in this city, don't give up yet."
"I know" I said then realized something "weren't you telling me before that I should just forget her?"
"Ya…well that's before I learned everything else"
I chuckled, and then said my good-byes to Jasper.
After a few minutes of sitting and thinking I went back to looking for Bella.
Looking for her felt like I was looking for someone that didn't want to be found.
AN: Yes I'm aware that this is the most stupid short chapter and is fillerish but it is needed for the story. I'm also aware that jasper is a bit OOC but he has to be this way.
The title to the next chapter is 'Breaking into someone else's house.'
It's going to be longer then this one I promise but I might not get it up for awhile because I'm starting my volunteering work soon. An d it's summer I'm never home in the summer. Once school starts up again in September I'll be back on track with the updating.
Please Review it'll make me want to update faster.
I'm going to put a sneak peek for the next chapter on my web page which you can get to from my profile it's my homepage.
Any questions PM me or review.
