Chapter 13
Bella's POV
"You want some coffee?" I asked Emmett. He was sitting at the table still grieving over mom's death.
"No thanks," he said and Rosalie came up and hugged him and Edward came up next to me.
"You want coffee?" I asked and he nodded. I grabbed 2 cups off of the counter and poured some coffee for both of us.
"It still doesn't seem real," I said and sat down next to Emmett.
"I know what you mean," Emmett said and Edward stood behind me and wrapped his arms around my neck. I was thinking about memories when I heard someone knock.
"I'll get it," Edward said and walked off. "I don't think she wants to see you," I heard Edward say then the door slam and someone walk in.
"Bella, I miss you," Mason said and I ignored him.
"Mason, please leave," I said and took a drink of coffee.
"I didn't know you drank coffee," he said sitting down.
"Well, I bet there's a lot of things you didn't know about me," I said and looked away from him.
"Bella, I messed up okay? I admit that but are you going to be mad at me for the rest of our lives?" he asked and I shook my head.
"No, but Mason, I moved on. You should too," I said and he looked at Edward who was now behind me.
"You have been planning this the whole time! You loser! You're a freak!" Mason said and I got up and grabbed Mason's arm.
"Mason, come on," I said and led him to the door. "Please leave, my mom just died Mason, it's hard enough and I don't need the drama that you're causing!"
"Drama?" he asked and moved closer to me. I knew what was coming.
"Yes drama!" I said and he had our foreheads touching.
"No," I said as he leaned his lips closer to mine. "NO!" I screamed and pushed him into the cold.
"Bella?" Edward asked coming in.
"I'm fine," I said and walked and sat down on the couch.
"No your not Bella," he said and sat next to me and grabbed my hand.
"I'm not, I just found out this morning that my mom died and Mason didn't help anything…" I said and Edward wrapped his arm around me and pulled me into him.
"I love you," he whispered in my ear giving me chills.
"Kiss me," I said and he nodded and kissed me softly sending chills down my whole body, it wasn't like when I kissed Mason, this was with love.
"I love you," I said and put my head on his chest and fell asleep.
Edward's POV
"I love you," she said and put her head on my chest and I heard her start to lightly snore.
"I love you too," I whispered to her and put my chin on her head.
"Bella," Emmett said coming in and I motioned that she was sleeping and he walked over and woke her up.
"What?" she asked tired.
"We need to talk about mom's funeral," he said and Bella shook her head.
"NO! You do it! I don't want to,"
"Bella, we're brother and sister, we need to do it together," Emmett said taking Bella's hand.
"Fine," she said and kissed me on the cheek before getting up and heading to the kitchen.
"Edward, you really like Bella don't you?" Alice asked sitting next to me.
"Yeah," I said and she looked sad.
"What are you going to do in May? When we go back?" Alice asked and I sighed.
"I haven't even thought about that, I've grown so close to her, I don't want to lose her," I said picking up a magazine that was on the coffee table.
"Edward, you have to tell her when you're leaving," she said and I nodded.
"I know but not now," I said and walked into the kitchen and Bella got up and I sat down in her chair and she sat on my lap and laid her head on my shoulder. I wrapped my arm around her waist and kissed her cheek.
"I can't do this," she said and I rubbed her back.
"I'm sorry Bella," I said and she looked at me and the milk chocolate brown eyes were full of tears.
"Edward, I'm so glad you were in the foreign exchange program," she said and kissed me before laying her head on my shoulder again.
"Me too," I whispered and ran my fingers through her hair, "Me too," I repeated and closed my eyes.
Bella's POV
Its January 23, my mom's funeral day. Edward is standing next to me and holding my hand.
"I can't do this without you," I whispered to him and he wrapped his arm around my waist. It was hard to believe that I hated him when he first came here now I was completely and irrevocably in love with him.
"I'm here, I won't leave you," he said and I sat down and saw Emmett talking to Rosalie away from everyone else.
"I know," I said and held his hand.
3 hours later and we were at home answering phone calls from friends saying how sorry they were about our mom's death.
"Guys, we have some pretty important news," Emmett said and Edward and I both looked up.
"I'm not going back to Britain because Emmett and I are getting married!" she said and Alice hugged her and squealed but I just looked at Edward.
"Going back to Britain? When?" I asked and he looked down and shrugged.
"Probably not until May," he said and I sighed and got up and went to my room.
"BELLA!" I heard Edward call but I slammed my door and cried. I didn't know he was leaving so soon. It was the end of January and he was leaving in May that meant I had 4 months left with him. I heard him knock on my door and slowly open it.
"Bella, I'm sorry. I was going to tell you but I couldn't. Not with what you were going through." Edward said and I smiled and wiped tears away.
"I understand, when are you leaving?" I asked and he sat next to me.
"May 7th," he said and I nodded and laid down on the bed.
