As I was trying to leave Edward in the forest, he kept grabbing at me. Finally though he let me leave.
When he let me go, I couldn't help myself I had to say it.
"Nice to see you again Edward".
I didn't know where I was running to, all I knew was I was running in the opposite direction. Once I was a couple of yards away, I heard a frustrated scream, coming from the direction I was just coming from, I soon realized that it was just Edward.
When I worked it out, I just started to pick up my pace. I didn't know how long I was running for, but somehow I ended up here.
Here I stood in front of a white mansion that belonged to him. I didn't know what possessed me to, but I had the sudden urge to talk to someone, and I knew who it would be, Esme.
I walked around the side of the house, through the side gate to the backyard. I walked straight up to the magnificent garden that centered the Cullen's backyard.
There in the middle of the garden was Esme, looking the same as ever. She must have heard my approach because all of a sudden she was standing up and looking at me. Her eyes travelled up and down my body until they rested on my face.
"Bella" she whispered, "Oh Bella, it's you, I've missed you so much" with that she pulled me into a motherly hug.
"I've missed you too" was all my reply.
"What brings you here, sweetie" she asked politely.
"Well, I just got this sudden urge to see you" Was all I could think up. Why was I here?
"Well I'm glad you got that urge, we have missed you terribly" did she say we?
"We?" I asked hesitantly.
"Yes we, Carlisle, Emmett, Alice, Jasper, and Rosalie started to miss you and I missed you, but most importantly Edward missed you the most, he was a walking zombie, lifeless, like he had nothing to live for." Wow what an explanation.
"Mmmm" was all I could say. Edward had missed me, but why?
Why I was asking myself this, I caught a smell. When I turned my head towards the scent I saw a figure heading towards me.
"Bella, this is Tanya" Esme introduced us.
Tanya didn't even acknowledge that I was there; instead she turned her attention to Esme and asked.
"Esme, may I ask, where is Edward, I miss him"
So he had moved on. Don't get me wrong, Tanya was very beautiful, I couldn't even compare.
"Um, Tanya, I think he's coming up the drive way now" Esme replied coolly.
"Thank you Esme" She replied politely. Tanya turned her gaze to be and shot dagger's through her eyes.
At that moment I heard her thoughts.
'He's mine bitch, stay away'
With that I turned my gaze to Esme said a quick goodbye and ran to the front of the house. I ran towards the river so I could get home sooner. Once I reached the river I skidded to a stop and placed myself behind a tree.
There in front of me was Edward holding Tanya in his arms and Tanya kissing his cheek.
Wow, don't they look good together. I knew he didn't like me, I told you I was just plain old Bella.
I let out a small gasp at something that just hit me. He never liked me did he? Maybe he thought he liked me.
As soon as I gasped, saw Edwards's eyes widen and he turned so that his body was now facing me, but it looked like he couldn't see me, which was good, I had to escape like right NOW.
I saw Edward turn is posture back to Tanya and with that I broke through the bushes to make my escape. But as soon as I was out in the open Edward looked over his shoulder, the same time that I looked up and right then I knew that he could see the pain written all over my face.
I quickly turned my gaze to the ground and made my way over the river.
As soon as I thought I was further enough away, I broke down – not like a human, of course – its times like these were I wish I could cry my heart out. Just to let the pain escape and its worse now than before because vampires feel more than humans, I should know.
I just collapsed and pulled my knees up to my chin and wrapped my arms around my knees and curled myself into a ball. I was trying to keep myself together by holding myself in that position, but only seconds later I was on my stomach, my face in the grass and I was dry-sobbing. My body shook with dry tears.
At that moment it started to rain and I could feel my clothes getting drenched and that my hair was soaking.
I started to get up, when i heard a familiar pair of footsteps heading my way.
I looked up to see to golden pair of eyes staring into my golden eyes.
Edwards's eyes looked pained. But so did mine.
"What do you want Edward? Haven't you caused me enough pain? I asked angrily.
"Bella please, can you explain why you are upset" he asked with a strangled voice.
"No Edward I cannot explain why I am upset, but I need to ask you something" I Replied.
"Anything, Bella" he answered cautiously.
"How are you and Tanya, how long have use been….together?" I struggled with my choice of words.
"Together?" He asked.
All I could do was nod my head, not knowing what my eyes would show.
I looked up to his face and all I could see in his eyes were confusion.
"Bella" his voice sounded strained. "I think your misunderstanding something, Tanya and I were not together" He sounded so sure.
"You're not?" I asked confused.
"Were not, I'm in love with someone else and always have been" he said this while looking straight into my eyes.
Before I could answer I heard footsteps, and along with the footsteps I started to hear her thoughts.
'I said stay away from him'
And before I could defend myself I felt impact on my cheek, I just been punched.
As soon as her fist made contact with me, I lost my balance and fell to the ground, the next thing I knew I could see Edward hovering over me and Tanya was nowhere to be seen.
Before I could stop him his lips made contact with mine. But I didn't try to stop him; instead I put my hand to his hair and pulled him closer to me, wanting to feel him against me again.
He broke the kiss first and looked me straight in the eyes, which his eyes were filled with love and said.
"Are you okay, love?" When he said love all I could do was melt at his words. I then realized that he was waiting for an answer.
"Yes" And then I pulled him down for another kiss.
