Chapter 3: Visitation
BPOV
First semester flew by.
Emmett and I were still dating and so were Alice and Jasper. Rosalie was still single though. Edward Whitlock had never asked her out.
I kept asking Alice to point him out to me but whenever she "saw" him in the hall, he would magically disappear behind another kid or into a classroom. I seriously think that he doesn't exist.
"So Bella. What movie do you want to see tonight?" Emmett asked me during lunch.
"Something Christmas-y. It's like the 21st already! I can't believe that school is going to be out for Christmas break in a matter of hours!" I said excitedly.
"I think that we should stay home tonight." Jasper said. Damn party pooper.
"Come on Jazz! You're ruining all the fun! I mean like, I still love you, but just let loose a little! Have some fun once and a while!" Alice said to her boyfriend. Jasper was never really one for parties and such. He was too much of a home body.
"I know I'm ruining your fun but hey, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is on t.v. tonight! It's a tradition to sit with the family and watch it. Plus, Edward's probably home now."
Jasper was right. It was a Cullen tradition that they get together with the Hale's and sometimes me and watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. We would sit in pyjamas and drink hot chocolate.
"You know what Jasper? That sounds like a great idea!" Emmett said. Yes! An entire night with him cuddled on the couch in comfy pyjamas snuggled under a blanket on the couch. Sounds good to me!
--
"Bye mom, bye dad! See you tomorrow afternoon!"
"Have fun at the Cullen's place! Oh and honey, could you tell Esme that We've decided to skip the party at Aunt Marie's house so we will be staying over there on Christmas eve?" Yes! I get to wake up on Christmas morning and see Emmett! My wish came true!
"Sure, mom."
"Thanks."
I went back outside and hopped into Alice's Porsche. Rosalie had already gotten her overnight bag.
When we arrived at the Cullen's Emmett was in the living room with Jasper and another boy. He was pretty tall, about Jasper's height. He had green eyes and reddish-brown hair that was almost copper. It was messy. I must say he was one of the hottest guys I'd ever seen.
"Oh, Bella. Do you remember my brother, Edward?" Alice asked. I just nodded my head. The Edward I remembered was never this hot.
"Well, that's him!"
"He's g-grown up a LOT." I managed to get out.
Alice just giggled. Rosalie said, "Yes he has." In a voice that would be used to say "he's mine". It made me slightly jealous, which scared me. I have Emmett already! I kept telling myself. But somehow, Emmett didn't seem like enough right now.
"Bella? Is that you?" Edward asked. I just nodded my head.
"Oh my god! You've grown up quite a bit since I last saw you!" He said.
"I could say the same about you." I said coolly.
He chuckled and walked away. Emmett came over to me. I hugged him lightly but he pulled me into a big bear hug.
"Emmett…can't…breathe!" He put me down and said sorry.
"What was that for?" I asked while giggling.
"For being the greatest girlfriend in the world!" He chuckled and kissed me softly on the lips. I guessed that he was trying to show Edward that I was his and he was mine. He was pretty much saying, "Keep your hands off her."
"So Edward, got any girlfriends?" Rosalie asked. God, she's known him for what, 2 minutes?
"Nope." He popped his lips on the p.
"Nice." Rosalie said grinning.
--
All 6 of us were ready to watch the movie. It was supposed to start at 9. It was 8:45 and we were figuring out where to sit. I was with Emmett on the couch, Alice and Jasper were on the loveseat. Edward came down the stairs in sweats and a tight white muscle shirt. He plopped himself down beside me on the couch. Rosalie automatically got off the chair she was sitting on and sat herself beside him. I don't think Edward noticed.
During the movie, Rosalie looked around at all of the couples sitting together. Emmett had his arm around my shoulders. My knees were bent and my feet were on the couch. My head was on his chest. Alice was lying with her head on Jasper's lap. He was stroking her hair.
Rosalie automatically acted because of jealousy. She leaned her head onto Edward's shoulder. Edward looked at me and Emmett and gave us a look that said "What the hell is she doing?" We just laughed. Edward just scooted closer to us and gently pushed her away. Rose looked pretty pissed.
--
I was soo tired after the movie! We just said goodnight to the boys and went to Alice's room to sleep.
"I think Edward's gay." Rosalie said looking worried.
Alice and I burst out laughing.
"Why.. w-would y-you… (peals of laughter)… think that?" Alice asked. We were now hysterically laughing on the floor. My stomach hurt so badly from laughing. It felt like I had just done about 500 crunches.
"Because he didn't seem interested in me at all!" Rose pouted.
"Rose, I think Edward's not interested in you because you just met him like a few hours ago." I explained calmly. I was almost over my fit of laughter.
"So you're saying that I should talk to him more, get to know him?"
"Yeah." Alice and I said at the same time.
--
Emmett and Jasper had gone out shopping with Alice and Rosalie. I hated shopping. My parents had gone out and Esme told me that I could stay and keep Edward company. So here I am with Edward, Emmett's godlike brother.
"So, how long have you been dating Emmett?" He asked.
"Well I guess just 5 months now. He asked me mid-august."
"Oh. Well I'm happy that you and him are happy. He's never had a girlfriend before, and I'm glad it's you."
"How would you know? I could be a total freak by now."
"Listen Bella. I'm really sorry I didn't keep my promise when I moved to my new school." He apologized.
"Edward, you were my best friend. I was so hopeful! You told me that you would call me with your new number and address, but you never did!" I was on the verge of tears by then.
"I'm sorry Bella! I know, I was a jerk for doing that, and it won't happen again."
"Damn right it won't." He looked hurt. "Look. I'm sorry for bringing that up. I'm just really pissed that you never called or anything. I lost my best friend. It made me feel like I wasn't good enough to be your friend."
"I didn't know you felt that way." The tears started streaming down my face. "Oh, Bella! Don't cry." I got up and walked into the guest room. "Where are you going?"
"I just need to be alone for a minute. I'm sorry."
Flashback
Edward and I were going into grade 5 in September. He and Emmett were my best friends. I was going to see them today. We only had 2 weeks of summer vacation left.
"Okay, Edward. Here's the last suitcase." Carlisle's voice came from Edward's room. Where was Edward going that he needed suitcases?
I ran up to his room to see him packing up his clothes.
"Hey Bells! Remember that school that I told you about for really smart people?"
"The one that you sleep over at? Yeah. I remember that."
"Well they asked me to go there! Isn't that exciting?"
"Yeah. Really exciting." A wave of sadness came over me. I felt like I needed to cry. "I'll be right back." I ran into the bathroom and started crying. There was a knock on the door.
"Bella? Can I come in?" It was Emmett's voice.
"Sure. It's unlocked." I said in a thick voice. He opened the door and was instantly at my side.
"What's wrong Bells? Are you okay?"
"Yeah. I'm fine. Except for the fact that one for my best friends is moving away to go to some smart kid school."
"Oh. Yeah, my mom wasn't too happy that he decided to move out either. She kept asking him 'what about Bella?' It's gonna be hard Bells, but I'll still be here for you. Your bear of a big brother is staying." I laughed at the name that we came up with for him.
I hugged him, he wiped my eyes and we walked out of the bathroom.
--
Edward was leaving today. We were standing on the Cullen's front porch saying our goodbyes.
"Call me when you get there. I want your number and address! I also need your e-mail. We can talk on msn when you get it."
"I promise you I will. I'm gonna miss you so much Bella!"
"I know. I am too." I promised myself that I wouldn't cry but I couldn't hold back the tears any longer. When he saw me crying, he started crying too. I hugged him. Then he got into the car and left.
--
When I got home that day, I was so sad. I went to my room and locked the door. I put on my headphones and played my favourite sad songs on while crying on my bed.
--
It's been 2 months and Edward still hasn't called.
End Flashback.
Okay so that chapter was a little bit surprising. I had no intentions of writing it that way. My hands just kinda knew what to do and wrote it.
So, the sad song from the Flashback is called Dancing by Elisa. It is an amazing song. I was listening to it while writing it and I had the idea and just kept replaying it while I wrote. So if you can, look it up on like youtube or limewire or something because it's really good. I'll add a youtube link on my profile. I'll also add the link to Lacey and Cameron dancing contemporary to it on So You Think You Can Dance. They were AMAZING!! It was a really good routine! (yes as you can tell I love dancing, and contemporary is one of the many styles I love). I wish I was that good at dancing!!
Okay so check out those videos and review!!
