Chapter Two
As Bella drove home she kept fiddling with the radio. But to her dismay she could not escape the really bad break-up songs. Finally she gave up and turned on what was in her CD player.
I've been on a roller coaster
Since you said that we were over
Cause you didn't want to be tied down
I felt like a loser, wasted and used
So scared to move
without you around
I thought I was going to die
It turned out I survived
Hey, didn't need you anyway
I get better everyday
Don't you think it's funny how it all works out
Yeah
I finally got a life
I go out every night
Now I've got so much to say so much to do
This is life, life after you
Bella turned off the stereo when she reached the house she shared with Tristin, 'Drea, and Rae. She walked in and closed the door behind her. She placed her keys on the rack, kicked off her boots and made her way to the kitchen. Bella noticed that the answering machine light was blinking.
"Bella, it's 'Drea. We're on our way home, and then we can talk. Tristin and I will get the brownies you just get comfortable and don't DRINK anymore!" Bella laughed at the thought. She sighed and headed up the stairs to change into her pajamas.
When she came back down the stairs she went into the kitchen to grab some water. Bella really wanted a bottle of tequila but 'Drea was right he wasn't worth the hangover.
"Bella?" 'Drea and Tristin came in. Tristin was holding a pink bakery box.
"You got the brownies." Bella responded. Tristin moved the box out of her grasp.
"Want these? Talk in there." Tristin pointed to the living room. Bella sighed and stalked into the living room and slumped on the couch. 'Drea and Tristin sat on either side of her. He handed her a brownie.
"What did he want?" 'Drea asked. Bella bit into her brownie.
"Well?" Tristin asked handing 'Drea a brownie. Bella swallowed and answered.
"He's living here now."
"WHAT?!" 'Drea spit out her brownie.
"Let me continue, he moved here to apologize and to get me back." Bella said and bit again into her brownie.
"Do you want him back?" Tristin asked.
"Of course but…" Bella trailed off. "He called Charlie to ask where I was…"
"Which means?" 'Drea asked.
"He braved Charlie's wrath to find out where I was."
"But?" Tristin asked.
"I don't want to be hurt again, and he called me a slut." Bella said.
"WHAT?!" Tristin and 'Drea exclaimed.
"He didn't say the word, but he implied it and then he told me that he lied to me, and that he wanted to kill himself after what he did to me."
"Well, at least he suffered maybe you can forgive him?" Tristin asked.
"I want to…but he caused me a year of pain and heartache and…" Bella trailed off.
"How about we watch a really bad romance movie and not talk about this?" 'Drea asked.
"That would be awesome." Bella said and bit into another brownie.
The Next Morning…
Bella came down the stairs that morning with her hair down, a black camisole, and a white skirt. Rae, 'Drea, and Tristin had cups of coffee in their hands and were staring out the front window.
"What is the guy next door walking around shirtless or something?" Bella asked sarcastically as she put on her boots. Tristin handed her a cup of coffee.
"I wish. I swear that guy has great abs." Rae said.
"Then why are you three staring out the window?" Bella asked.
"Know anyone who owns a silver Volvo and can look like a total god while leaning on it?" 'Drea asked. Bella's eyebrows furrowed. She looked out the window and sure enough, there was the silver Volvo that years ago her heart would leap at to see.
Now…not so much.
"Great, what the perfect start to my morning." Bella said. 'Drea's car keys found themselves into Bella's hands.
"Just in case he doesn't move his car." 'Drea replied. Bella nodded and handed her coffee back to Tristin and walked out the door. She was barely able to breathe when she turned back around.
"Am I going to have to get a restraining order on you?" Bella asked. Edward grinned.
"Since when do you wear heals?" He asked.
"Since two years ago. Now what are you doing here?" Bella asked.
"We need to talk." Edward said.
"We talked enough last night. You called me a slut, I yelled, cried, and stalked off. So I think we're done talking, would you please move your car?"
"I did not call you a slut, Bella."
"You implied now move your car."
"No, not until we discuss this." Bella shook her head and walked to 'Drea's car. Edward followed her. "Bella, we need to talk!" She turned around her eyes flashing with anger.
Edward had never seen her like this.
"No we don't! Stay away from me Edward!" She exclaimed.
"We have to talk." He replied quietly.
"God, Edward! Stay away from me! If you don't I swear I'm going to run you down in the street. But you're not normal so it wouldn't do me any good but it would make me feel better." Bella said and drove off to her job.
At Bella's Job…
"Bella, sweetie you left the bar so early last night before karokee. And then that cute thing followed you. Who was he?" Mallory asked when Bella walked in. Bella sighed and threw her bag on the chair.
"That cute thing was Edward Cullen." She responded. Mallory's smile faltered.
"The Edward Cullen? Why is he here?" She asked.
"He moved here to apologize and he wants to get back together." Bella replied getting tired of explaining it again.
"And?"
"Of course I want to. But I don't want to go through that again. And he called me a slut."
"Wow he has nerve. So isn't that him?" Mallory asked pointing. Bella frowned and looked up. Sure enough there he was roaming the shelves, getting stared at by other females, and being a god.
"I don't believe this. I'm going to get a restraining order." Bella whispered in response.
"Should I cover for you?" Mallory asked.
"Please? I'll be in the back or reshelving." Bella muttered as he went to the back of the store.
"Miss I'm looking for…" A voice started to say to her. Bella turned around.
"You? Bella is that you?" The guy asked. Bella's eyebrow rose.
"Yes, I'm Bella and you?" She asked.
"It's Mike Newton."
"Mike Newton from Forks?" Bella asked surprised.
"Yeah, it's been three years. You look great."
"Thanks you do too. So what have you've been up to?"
"I'm married." Mike responded.
"Married to who?" Bella asked.
"Jessica. You?" Bella shook her head.
"Single."
"Really? Then what's Edward doing here?" Mike asked.
"Stalking me." Bella muttered. Mike stared.
"Are you joking?"
"No." Bella responded and watched as Edward turned and walked towards them.
"Bella?" Edward asked stopping in front of her.
"I got to get back to work." Bella said and turned to walk away.
" Bella, for the love of god stop walking away from me." Edward said.
"Cullen, back off." Mike said.
"Look Edward, if you really want to talk I'll meet you after work at Joe's." Bella said.
At Joe's…
"Bella, I know you really don't want to be here." Edward began. Bella rolled her eyes.
"Let's keep one thing clear. After this you don't come around my place or my work either." She said.
"Fair enough." Edward said.
"So what exactly do you need to talk to me about?" Bella asked trying not to sound pissed.
"About what happened three years ago." Edward replied. Bella winced.
"What about it?" She asked.
"I'm sorry for doing that to you…" Edward began.
"Kind of late for that isn't it?" Bella asked.
"Would you stop? I'm trying to make amends." Edward said. Bella laughed.
"It sounds something out of my rehab program." She replied and then froze. She wasn't supposed to say that.
"Your rehab program?" Edward asked. Bella shook her head.
"Never mind. Now why are you trying to make your amends now?" She asked.
"I was serious last night, Bella. I want you back." Edward said reaching for her hand. He needed her touch or else he would go insane.
"And I told you it would be too painful." Bella replied moving her hands.
"Why would it be so painful? Bella, if we get back together the pain would stop." Edward said.
"What if we break up again? The pain would intensify." She responded.
"Just give it a chance." Edward said.
"I did remember? And of course afterwards what happened to…" Bella trailed off. She didn't want to say something stupid.
"What are you talking about?" Edward asked.
"Nothing." She responded.
"Stop editing your thoughts." He said.
"I'm not editing." Bella said sternly.
"Yes, you are, now tell me what you meant earlier."
"No, see that's personal information. I'm not going to tell you." Bella said and got out of her seat.
"Bella!" Edward exclaimed.
"What we're done talking so I can leave." Bella replied.
"No, get down." Edward said taking her and pushing her body to the floor. A few seconds later gunshots were heard and glass shattering. Edward clung to Bella's body.
"Edward…" Bella's voice whispered.
"It's okay we're going to be okay." He reassured her.
"Bella?" A voice asked. Edward and Bella looked up. Steve offered her his hand to help her get up.
"Steve, what is going on?" Bella asked.
"Someone went mad and started shooting up the bar." He responded.
"How many?" Bella asked.
"Seven." Steve responded.
"Do you know anyone?" Bella asked. Edward looked uneasy he still had one arm around her waist.
"Yes, one." Steve said smiling. Bella stared at him confused. From under his coat he shot his gun right at Bella's shoulder.
"BELLA!" Edward exclaimed holding onto her as tight as he could.
"I'm fine…" She told him. Her breathing was coming hard.
"No, you're not." Edward told her.
"Says the cryptic ex." She laughed.
"Bella, don't you dare die on me." He said sternly. Bella's hand clasped his.
"I have no plans to…I got some unfinished business to attend to." She said before closing her eyes.
"Bella, don't die please." He muttered. Her hand was still in his own, she was still hanging on…
