Chapter Seven
Simon's P.O.V
I'd been thinking about Bella all day. Today had been her first day back at Forks High School; I knew it would be difficult for her – going back to the place where she had lived as a human, where her father had died, where her friends had died and where she'd meet him.
Over the years we had spent together, Bella had told me all about her old life and the beginning of her new one. She told me that she had experience of vampires long before she was turned, how she fell in love for the first time and how he had broken her heart and that's when she had been turned – during the lowest point in her life.
After decades of being together, Bella and I had become best friends, she was like the sister I had never had. I'd even trusted her with the secrets of my past. I didn't like to talk much about the past. Not my vampire past or my human past. My existence hadn't been a happy one not until I started to change and I meet Bella.
I remembered the day that I met Bella. I had been hunting in the forest when I came across her, she looked ragged and animalistic and her eyes were ruby red. I knew she was desperately trying to stay away from humans and ignore the urge to hunt them because I had found her in the deepest part of the forest. She had tried to sate her bloodlust with animals but she was finding it difficult.
I had known that pain. I could remember it well.
That day when I first saw Bella, she reminded me of the brother I once had. I don't know if it was the deep caring that I saw in her eyes or the sweetness in her face but something made me think of him. Up until then I hadn't thought of Galen in years, the pain of my past was still rare even then…
I picked up my phone and sent Bella a text asking if I could come and see her. I missed her and wanted to be there for her as she went back to Forks. Over the decade Bella and I had spent equal time both together and apart. I helped her fully adjust to this life and taught her the full potential of being a vampire.
I knew she would find returning to Forks painful because of what she has been through. I knew all about her 'relationship' with Edward. How he could treat Bella like that was beyond me, if I ever met him I would show him the real meaning of pain. I would inflict so much pain on him that what he put Bella through would seem like a walk in the park. I had hated a lot of people throughout my long years but he was the one I now hated the most. The only person who I may hate more than him was Katherine. He hurt my best friend and no one does that. Just ask Victoria…
My phone beeped alerting me to Bella's reply and I felt excited as I read her confirmation of my visit. I than ran round my room packing a bag quickly in my eagerness to get to Forks and see Bella. After I finished packing my bag I called the airline to book a ticket on the next available flight to Seattle – I should arrive in Forks by this time tomorrow.
Maybe (if I arrived I time) I would surprise Bella at the High school when she finished for the day. I could imagine the shocked look on her face now before her face changed and that lovely smile of hers emerged on her face. I picked up my bag, the smile still on my face as I left my room and headed to the airport…
