Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight...but I own several Twilight posters.
I couldn't believe it. Five days had passed. No packages, no letters, no nothing. Maybe it got lost in the mail, I told myself. But then again maybe it didn't. Maybe there wasn't anything he sent me at all. No, I told myself. No, no Edward wasn't like that. Well, what did I know? He could have changed over the years. Over the years I had spent alone.
At the moment I was at home by myself. My mom had went to the store and Charlie was at work. Just then the doorbell rang. I raced down the stairs to get the door. The person at the door was male. And boy, was he gorgeous. He had bronze hair—an interesting color not quite red but not exactly brown either. He had perfect features. His eyes were wide—wait! His eyes. They were the most shocking color of green. And I would know them anywhere, and I was sure that in that moment my eyes were even wider than his.
"Edward," I gasped.
"B-bb-bella," he stuttered.
"I-uh-I-I-um-uh...," I sounded like an idiot. I flung myself at him. He returned the hug immediately.
I started crying, "I-I m-missed you s-so mu-uch, E-E-Eddie."
He hugged me tighter."I missed you too, Bellsie," he whispered. I let go of all of him except for one hand. I dragged him to the couch and he shut the door behind him with his free hand. I sat down and patted the spot next to me, I folded my legs Indian-style and turned to face him, I smiled a slight smile when I saw that he did the same. I looked down, I noticed I was still holding his hand I blushed and let it go. He was the first to speak, "So Bells, your looking good."
I laughed, "Hey, you too. But you know I was kind of expecting something in the mail," I stressed the word. Now it was his turn to laugh. "Edward Anthony, don't you dare laugh! The anxiety was killing me!" He quit laughing.
"Sorry, Bells," he apologized.
"It's okay, I wasn't really mad, I just like watching you squirm."
"Thanks," he said sarcastically.
"No prob buddy," I said.
"So..."
"So..." I mimicked him.
"Well I would ask you to play '100 questions' with me, but you don't seem to have changed much, except in looks," he said.
"Same for you," I told him.
"Well, just want to, you know, start off where we left off, pretend I never moved? 'Cause you know the whole family is here permanently yet again." he asked.
"Really?! Yay, I'm so excited!" I cried.
"Yeah, we'll have to go see them later. I would say right now but, I would never get a chance to hang out with you," he stated.
"Okay! So what do you want to do now," I questioned.
"Um, how about we...watch a movie?" He smirked. I knew why. Because whenever we watched a movie we would pick out one character, that looked the most like someone we know personally. We always did that.
"I would love that," I told him. We sauntered over to the place where we kept all our DVD's.
"So...hey, how about Stick It? Yeah, I know it's a chick flick my parents told me, but my dad said it had some funny parts," I asked.
"Hey, it's up to you, so pick whatever."
"Okay, Stick It it is," I said smiling. "I'll be right back."
I walked into the kitchen, and opened the pantry door. I found the popcorn—Orville Redenbaucher. I stuck it in the microwave and pressed the button that said "popcorn". I peeked my head around the corner, and looked at the television. The previews were still playing. I heard the microwave ding and I opened the door on the microwave. It smelled like butter. I grabbed a bowl from the cabinet and poured the popcorn in it. I walked back into the living room. And plopped down on the couch beside Edward. I placed the bowl of popcorn on the coffee table at the foot of the couch.
"So, did I miss anything," I asked.
"Nope," he said popping the "p" in nope.
The movie started then and as soon as we saw the character Frank we both said, "There's Emmett!" at the same time. We looked at each other and started laughing. As soon as Stick It ended, almost as if it was planned, my mom opened the door and came in with her arms full of plastic bags that said "Walmart" on the outside. She looked over at the couch saw me and Edward, and she had a very confused look on her face.
"Hey, Mom," I greeted her.
"Hello, Renee," Edward did the same. Recognition brightened her face.
"Edward Cullen?" she questioned.
"The very one," Edward assured her. Mom dropped her groceries, and ran over to Edward, and engulfed him in a hug. "Oh, Edward how's Esme?" my mom asked.
"Mom's fine, she's much happier to be back in Forks, much like I am," he said, and looked over at me.
I blushed.
"So, Mom, me and Edward were just about to go see the rest of the Cullen's want to come with?" I asked. She smiled when she heard the evident happiness in my voice.
"No, Sweetie you go on ahead with out me, I'll see them all later."
"Okay," me and Edward murmured at the same time. We all three laughed.
"Bye, Mom," I called at the same time Edward called "Bye Renee."
"Bye kids," My mom yelled after us.
There was a silver Volvo parked in the driveway. I climbed in the passengers side. He toyed with the radio and a familiar song came out, as we set off down the road. We Are Broken by Paramore. It didn't hurt anymore, I don't think songs will be able to make me cry again. Now that he's back.
"So what's your favorite band," he asked.
I smiled, "Paramore."
"Oh. They're one of my favorites. I think my all time favorite though would be Blue October."
"Really? I love them."
"What's your favorite song by them?"
"Hmm, probably Hate Me," I told him.
He smiled, "Me too."
"Well, what's your favorite Paramore song?" I wondered.
"Brick by Boring Brick. You?"
"Fences," I said. He nodded. We didn't say much after that. He pulled up to his house. Whoa, it was the same one! "Hey! How did you get the same house back?!" I asked.
"Huge stroke of luck! Victoria and James were moving out the same time we wanted to move back in. Lucky huh?" he said.
"Yeah," I told him. The house was beautiful just like I remembered. (Pictures on profile).
He walked me to the door and before I could even walk in I was attacked. "BELLA BELLA BELLA!" someone with a very high voice yelled. Obviously Alice. I hugged her back then mimicked her,
"Alice Alice Alice!" I said in a horrible imitation of her high soprano voice. I then went back to my voice, "Hi Alice!"
"Oh, Bella I missed you!"
"I missed you too, Ali!"
She looked me over.
"Oh I love your outfit Bella!" she exclaimed. I looked down at my outfit, I was wearing a blue and white plaid shirt. With short, shorts folded a little at the bottom. Some blue Converse that went well with the shirt and some accessories to match. Cute I guess. (Pictures on profile)
"Well I love yours, Ali!" I told her. And I really did she was wearing the cutest little plaid mini skirt it was pink and brown, she was wearing light brown knee highs and dark brown uggs. She was wearing a hot pink head band with a bow on it, it looked nice with her oh so spiky black hair. Her brown shirt had a big dip in it and it was netted over. She had on a beaded hot pink bracelet. And a necklace with a hot pink lightning bolt on it. (Pictures on profile). She grabbed my hand and skipped—yes skipped—to the living room. Everyone was there, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie, Carlisle and Esme. They were standing in a line I walked up to Jasper. He was first in the line.
"Hey Bells," he greeted me.
"Hey Jazz," I said then I hugged him. "Missed you," I said.
"You too Bells, You too."
I decided to play with Emmett a bit.
I stood in front of Emmett. He held his arms out like he was about to hug me. I took a step back and shook my head. He looked confused, I could barely keep the smile off my face.
"Um, yeah, well Bells, I missed you," he said uncertainly.
"Aw, you poor, poor, thing. I didn't miss you at all," I lied. He looked hurt. I grinned ear to ear, and said, "Just kidding Emmett!"
He engulfed me into one of his signature Emmett-bone crushing-hugs.
"I missed you Bells," he told me again.
"I missed you too Em," I said.
Next up was Rosalie. "Hey Rose," I greeted her.
"Hey Bella," she said. She pulled me into a hug.
I turned to Carlisle and Esme. "Hey Mom and Dad #2, I missed yall!" We went in for a three people group hug. This really was my home away from home so I plopped down on the couch and said "What's shakin' with yall?" then more serious I sat up and said "Hey I never got to here the story of why you all moved back."
Edward sat next to me and said "Well, Carlisle's pay was the exact same there as here, and all of us wanted to come back so we just did,"
"Yall are the bomb!" I said. Then I said in a voice of mock horror, "Oh no! I sounded exactly like Emmett right then!"
We all laughed. And the Cullen's were back. For good.
