"Just come out with it" Bella said.
"I'm sorry" I replied, knowing that it wouldn't be enough but still hoping it will help.
"What are you sorry for" She said in the most innocent voice she could muster. A wave of rage ran through my body.
"Why do you do that Bella?" I asked through clenched teeth.
"Do what Edward" she said in that innocent voice. Even though it infuriated me, I couldn't help but find her voice so cute.
"Do that" I yelled as loud as I could. Bella cringed away from my yelling, making me wish I had never yelled.
"Bella" I said in a soft voice.
"I have to go" Bella said as she turned to walk away. I grabbed her arm before she could get away from me again. I spun her around, thinking that now she was a vampire, her balance problems would be long gone. I was shocked to she her trying to regain her balance, without success. With a loud thump, Bella was on the ground. I tried to hold back my laughing, but I could help it. I let out a loud laugh.
Bella stood up, holding on to every ounce of dignity she still had.
"Good bye Edward" she said as she turned around again, but, like before, I grabbed her arm and turned her around, this time holding onto her, so she didn't fall.
"Edward, let go" she said as she tried to escape my hold.
"You haven't said weather or not you accept my apology" I said, even I could hear the smile in my voice.
"Well, you haven't told me what you are apologizing for" she said in an annoyed voice, causing my body to tense with anger.
"You know what I'm apologizing for" I said through clenched teeth.
"No Edward, I don't know. Now if you mind, I must be going" Bella said as she tuned around, this time I let her leave. She was almost out of the clearing when she turned around to face me.
"Nice to see you again Edward" she said with something that sound like sorrow in her voice, before she turned around and walked away. I couldn't help but scream, as loud as I could. Then it hit me, I still couldn't read her mind. Weird.
****************
I had no intentions of going home so fast, so I remain in the clearing I was, just a minute ago, talking to Bella. To eighteen year old Bella, not 88 year old Bella like it should've been. 'How? Why? When', then I realised I knew the answer to when. It mustn't have been to long after I left. Typical Bella. I leave and she goes and finds the first vampire she can.
"AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" I screamed, letting out all my frustration. I closed my eyes, thinking it might help calm me down, only to find that when I closed my eyes, all I could see was her. All I could think about was her, her eyes, her face, and her lips. It feels like the first time I met her, without the urge to kill her. My Bella was now a vampire, just like me. 'How could I be thinking my Bella? She isn't mine, but how I wish she was again'. Again I let out a frustrated scream.
I don't know how long I sat there, thinking about Bella, weather it had been minutes or hours, but I knew I had to go home. Esme was probably worried sick. I stood up and took a deep breathe, 'Time to go face Carlisle, and after I talked to him like that, I don't want to know what he is going to do'.
*****************
I wasn't paying attention when I jumped over the river, landing in our yard, so I was startled when I heard someone scream my name. I looked up to see Tanya running towards me with opened arms. I automatically opened my arms, the fact that Tanya was running towards me wasn't exactly sinking in. The next thing I knew, she was in my arms, giving me a very tight hug. She gave me a kiss on the cheek, which also shocked me. I heard a gasp from somewhere in the distance. I turned but couldn't see anyone. Then the scent hit me. 'Bella'
"Edward is everything all right" Tanya asked as she looked at me with worry filled eyes.
"Oh, um… Yea everything is fine" I said, forcing a smile onto my face.
"Ok, everyone inside" Esme called from the veranda.
I looked over my shoulder one more time, hoping that, I don't know what I was hoping for, or what I wanted to see, but Bella face, full of pain and misery certainly wasn't it.
A/N: So sorry for the wait, I was swamped with assignments and homework, and also I became a little stuck on this chapter. Hope you like, and please review, unless you don't want to, I mean you don't have to. OK, whatever.
