"Bella, whats wrong with you?" I yelled back.
"You know Edward - leave me alone. I now need time to prepare for my date to come round"
That hurt. "Who's ur date?" I asked.
"I said leave me alone - or i will avoid you completly" she threatened.
She got out the car and into her house without another word. I drove silently home, fighting tears all the way.

Chapter 10: Missing & Flu
EPOV
A week has past and still Bella hasn't spoken to me. She hasn't repiled to me at all. Frustrated I whipped up my phone and sent her a text:
Bella, can you plz answer me? Can you at least tell me how u r? Why are you angry at me? What have I done? wrong? :( - Edward
I got a reply quicker then I thougt possible:
Edward - Nothing is wrong, See you tomorrow at school. - B
I smiled. At least she had responeded. I kept trying to think what was wrong with her. I turned over and my eyes darted staight for my angel's photo, but it wasn't there. Panicked, I fell off the bed and moved around serathing for it. Relived when I found it...in the bin beside the bedside table. I picked it up and beamed at it. I stroked her in the photo and then kissed the photo. I missed her so badly. I poundered until I realised I was running out the door and to my car.
BPOV
I felt so guilty, so guilty. I had nooo idea why that one photo disturbed me so much. I kept replaying on how and what had happened;
F L A S H B A C K
I managed to get a break from Edward's family and went upstairs quickly to find the bathroom as I really needed a pee. I passed many doors on the first floor. All the doors had name plates on them and my curiosity poked at me. Why not? I thought and read them as I passed by:
Alice, Emmett, Bathroom, Esme&Carlise, Roaslie,Jasper and... no more doors on this floor. I looked around and I spotted another set of stairs. I felt like I was inturdining, which truth be told, I urmm..was.
My mind made up, I jogged up the stairs. This landing was smaller than the one below. There was a bathroom and then one which read 'Edward's Room'. I grinned and walked towards the door slowly, careful no to make any noise. They were all downstairs including Edward. I turned the doorhandle and walked inside, closing the door so it wasnt closed completly, but closed enough for me to not turn the handle and make a noise. I turned round and looked at the room. It was tidy - for a boys room. There were clothes on the floor but not out of control like my bedroom sometimes.
He had a massive super king-sized bed, with compfty pillows and a soft duvet cover. It was mainly light blue colour. I grinned deeper but then I saw his shelves of Music. I laughed aloud, it was so EDWARD. He had pictures of his family and little things amoung the gaps on the shelves. I saw pictures of Esme & Edward when he was a little boy aged about 7, then one with all of the them all arms round him with a medal around his neck. I looked along the shelve and it was a medal for piano soloist. I figured I'd ask him about it later. I was looking at pictures and how young he was until I looked at his photos on his bedside table - well ONE photograph in a gold frame with hearts around it.
I reconized her imediantly, my heart thumping harder and harder as my breath came much more often. It was Tanya Denali, from bitch city. The popular bitch, who was in leuge with Jessica and Lauren, the slags. She was sitting in Edward's lap and looked...pretty and comfortable, not bitchy and showing off at all - she seemed really happy, her smile proving that. She had two bunny ears poking up out of Edward's bronze hair forset. The expression on his face was...priceless, you couldn't name it. He looked amazingly happy. He was happily beaming into the camera, holding her with his hand on her waist...like he did with me when I was with him.
I suddenly felt sick, sick to my core. To my extreame embarrassment, I felt tears welling up in my eyes, threating to burst through. I stumbled back a few steps, as in stunned by the photo. I knocked the photo over, pushing away their happy looks. Some small pasrt of me was telling me that if he loved me, he would of replaced this picture with the one I gave him. I felt selfish thinking it but my back was up. I wiped my tears and dashed back downstairs. Nobody seemed to realise I had vannished.
End of flashback
I pulled myself away from the mental image and wiped even more tears from my cheeks. This was getting ridiculas, stupid, I didnt want to be crying the time. Maybe he still cared for her?! I shrieked with the agony and grabbed my phone, dialed his number and waited.
He didn't answer. I phoned serveral times. What the fuck? He'd just texted me! I called his home number and Esme answered.
"Hello Bella dear! How are you?"
"Hi Esme, I'm ok, where is Edward?"
"He was in his room but then he seemed in a hurry to get away - the determination in his eye, I remember. He grabbed his keys and got into his car."
"He won't answer his cell"
"Bella, I'm sure he's fine. I'll call his car phone"
"What on earth is a car phone?"
"A phone built into his car, like the stereo is, darling"
Didn't know they exsisted. At, All! I was pannicking again.
"Bella, I'll call you back"
"Thanks Esme"
I hung up, feeling sick. I went to the kictchen and grabbed a pork pie from the fridge. 10 minutes later, I was puking it up in the toliet. Gross. Charlie looked alarmed when I almost fell out of the bathroom. "You alrite?" he asked.
"No, I think I've got flu - bad flu."
"I'll call Carlise to check"
"Ok"
I got dressed for bed and go into bed, Then Charlie came back, "Phone's busy. Don't worry Bells" he walked out. Shame I DID worry.
ESME POV
After I put the phone down, I went to Carlise's study. He was reading when I poked my head round the door. He beamed at me "What is it dear?" he asked, putting the book down on the desk. I walked over. "Where's Edward's car phone number?" I asked franticly "because Bella says he's forgotton his cell and he's gone out."
He frowned, "Thats unlike of Edward to forget his cell. Go check his room while I try to find it."
I obilged. His cell was on the messy double bed and sure enough, 15 missed calls from 'Sweet Bella' (aww) and serval texts as well - she must be desprate. I noticed that his picture of Tanya was on the floor. I picked it up, Edward looked so happy! But he was in love with Bella now..that was the look he gave her all the time. I grabbed his cell phone and went back to Carlise. He picked up the phone and dialed. We put it on loudspeaker and waited until somebody answered:
"Yes yes who is it?!" said a very busy and emotional Edward. I frowned.
"Edward Cullen - thats no way to greet your parents when they call you - you left your cell and Bella really needs to speak to you."
"What? Who is this?" a female's voice - not Bella's and definatly not Edward. I looked at Carlise, panicked.
"Tell us who you are please" Carlise asked polietly.
"Oh it that you Esme? and Carlise? Its MEE! Tanya Denali!"
