Poisoned rose
Chapter three- change
*Bella's POV*
I decided not to tell Alice about Edward, I couldn't bring myself to talk about him. I could tell she knew something was up but I didn't care. He had hurt me twice. Why did he hate me so much? What did I do wrong?
I wanted answer's more than anything. How could we go from been best friends to nothing? To him completely avoiding me. I wanted to know what I had done. I didn't deserve this. It had been a few days since I had last saw him. I could still picture him know. His russet skin, perfect crooked smile, Cherry lips, chestnut eyes and soft golden eyes. I checked the alley every night in hope I would see him again. This time I wouldn't let him get away. I'd demand answers.
It was Friday night when I decided I couldn't just sit around, knowing he was in Forks somewhere. I just couldn't. I grabbed a warm coat and headed out the door. It was last and tickling freezing, my eyes watered when the wind hit my face. I began to imagine how cold and lonely it would get on your own. I couldn't bare to think of him freezing to death.
I walked and walked and walked in hope to find him. But it was like he had completely disappeared off the face of the earth. Again. Why was he homeless? His parents were pretty rich; when I knew him anyway.
Don't get me wrong Alice, Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper were amazing but I still longed for Edwards company. He was sweet, caring, funny, sarcastic and protective and just generally fun to be around. I had tried to move on and it was already virtually impossible. But now I know he is somewhere in Forks its impossible to just forget him.
After hours of looking in side streets, checking in at homeless centres there was nothing. It was getting late and I decided to go home. It was obviously he didn't want me to find him, or he would of made him self known. A part of me hated him deeply, but the rest loved him and wanted to catch up with him and chat just like the old times.
At ten o clock, I was back in my apartment, freezing cold, wet and confused. I'd been here six days and already my life was the same hell as it was in Phoenix. My past certainly haunted me. As soon as I entered my apartment, I undressed and headed into the shower. The warm water, covered my cold body and I started to relax a little.
I stayed in the shower for over half an hour, I let my self enjoy the warmth a little. I wrapped my warm towel and dried myself of and chose my favourite pair of pajamas- gray and baby pink top and shorts with the logo of superman on and flopped on to the sofa.
I wasn't paying attention to the television, in fact I was in a daze. Thinking of all of mine and Edwards memories made me even more depressed. Everything has been wasted. I never even got to say a goodbye to Edward and then wasted my second chance to speak to him again. Maybe this is my fault. Maybe.
After a few minutes I decided to go to sleep. Although I hadn't got work tomorrow, thank god, I was tired and needed a good nights rest. Although it was almost impossible to sleep. I tossed and turned for ages before finally dropping of.
I work up to my phone ringing. The caller ID told me it was Alice. I cleared my voice before answering.
''Hello…'' I stared sleepily.
''Its Alice!'' She replied, loudly. To loud, for first thing in the morning. ''Sorry if I woke you!'' She finished.
''That's alright, so did you want me then?'' I smiled, I had to love Alice. She was completely crazy.
''I was wondering if you would like to come shopping, with me and Rose? Please say you will come!'' She said in almost a begging tone. I chuckled again. She's the only person who can make me laugh in the morning.
''Well, I'm still in bed, and it takes me forever to get ready… I wouldn't want to keep you.'' I said truthfully.
''I'm not ready get, its only ten, we have all day!'' She giggled. ''Please!'' She repeated, I could almost hear her eyes blinking, making puppy dog eyes.
''Ok, what time? And where will we meet.'' I asked dragging myself out of bed.
We were meeting at the bus-stop, in a hour and a half. Which was fine by me, it took me around about an hour to get ready and took ten minutes to get to the bus station. I had a quick wash and change into my gray 'I love Rock' top; Skinny jeans with diamonds and my purple converse. I then fixed my hair by chucking it back into a pony tail with my fringe down and back combed my pony tail and did my normal makeup.
After having a quick sit down, I headed out my apartment door. I tried to put Edward at the back of my mind so I could enjoy myself.
''Bella…'' I heard a familial voice say. I swallowed hard, my heart stared pounding like I had just done an half an hour run and sick and dizziness rushed through me. I turned my head around, slowly. It was him.
''Edward.'' I whispered, barley been able to speak. Millions of thoughts rushed through my head. I couldn't speak. I opened my mouth to say something but no words come out. We stood there, In silence.
He came back to me, for a second chance or an explanation, all I know is that I will give him anything he wants. Anything.
''Edward, where have you been?'' I managed to say; breaking the silence.
''How long have you got?'' He sighed. I smiled. Hearing and seeing him was absolutely out of this world. I have waited over a year for this moment.
For a moment, I forgot about shopping, forgot about Alice, Rose, Emmett and Jasper. It was just me and Edward, nothing or no one else mattered. I was bought back to realisation when my phone vibrated.
''Bella, where are you?'' Alice asked frantically.
''Oh, Alice, something's popped up, I was just going to phone, can we do this next week, I explain later.'' I partly lied.
''Oh my gosh you have to tell me the gossip.'' She said excitedly.
''I will later, look I really have to go.'' I finished, and ended the call. I know she wouldn't of gave up asking and I couldn't cope with her excitement today!
''Come back to my place, you must be freezing, I think I have some of my fathers clothes you can wear.'' I smiled, putting my arm around him; leading him towards my apartment.
''I'm fine with the clothes I have on, but thanks Bell.'' He said quietly.
''No arguments Edward.'' I chuckled, he smiled nervously. I could tell him wasn't the same around me. I never expected him to be. I wasn't fully the same. It was pretty awkward as well. People can change in a year and I hope he is the same. I hate cancelling on Alice but I'm sure she will understand. I hope, I certainly don't want to loose Alice, Rose, Emmett and Jasper as friends.
I told Edward to have a shower, while I found him some of my fathers old clothes. They would do for the time been and anything would be better than the rags he is wearing know! I handed him a towel and laid out my fathers clothes on my bed. I had never got rid of my mother's and father's clothes. I couldn't. It would of just felt like I was trying to wipe them out. Sadness rushed through my body, looking at my fathers clothes. I wish I was back in phoenix when I was a child. I sighed, I couldn't stop thinking of my past and I had to stop it, or I would ruin my chance in ever been happy.
I headed back into the living room and tried to prepare myself about what to say to him. But nothing could prepare me. Nothing.
A/N: I Hope you don't feel this chapter was rushed… A couple of people have had some idea's of what's happening but my mouth is shut. There will be some twist and turns along the way, I think this story will be about 30 chapters long, I'm not sure… I have the basic idea of what is going to happen but it hard to word it all so bare with me… If I don't update in a while, I have just got writers block (:
