AN: hey guys. Here's the next chapter. Thanks to Dazzled17, NewTownGir, reina13, shadow kissed 4eva, BellaLeila87, Bellaangel383 and alicefan32 for the great reviews. Hope you will like it.
Bella's POV
He looked like him.
He had his name.
The age fit.
This man standing barely feets away from me was MY FATHER!
Jared looked at me. He probably came to the same cconclusion as me. I realize, I should say something. But I am not even able to think straight. Dad didn't die. He's here. Alive. Having a family. This was too much. I needed to get away from all of this. Just away. I ran. Out of the door, into the forest. Just away.
But it wasn't long until Jared grabbed both of my arms to stop me.
"Jared, let me go!", I screamed. I never screamed at Jared before.
"It's him, isn't it. This man... is your father, right.?", he asked, starting loud and getting quieter in the end.
"What am I supposed to do, huh?", I asked.
"Well, definitely not running away! You always wanted answers and now that you could get them, you act like a coward! Come on, I know you're braver than that. I know you're afraid but if you want to find piece you have to talk to him at least, damn it!", he said, running one hand trough his hair.
"But-"
"No buts, no what ifs! I know that this is hard for you, but I'll be with you the whole time. And I promise you that everything will turn out just fine. OK?", he said reassuring while looking me in the eye.
"OK.", I said, "So, should we go back then?"
"Yeah, we should.", he said, gabbing my hand and so we walked back. I was nervous as hell facing my father. What if he doesn't remember me? What if he doesn't want me? He had a new family after all. And I don't play a role in his new life. Jared held my hand tightly, trying to give me courage.
Soon (too soon for my liking) we came back to the house.
Jasper's POV
Bella's emotions during the song were longing and grieve. She really must have loved her father deeply. I wonder what happened to him. I made a note to ask her later.
Then Carlisle came home and after the song ended and Bella turned around... if I weren't sitting already, Bella's emotions would have forced me to sit down. Recognition, shock, disbelieve, and a lot others I couldn't name. It was hard for me to concentrate but the more Carlisle and Jared talked, the worse Bella's emotional condition got. And I swear, if she hadn't run, I would have.
After Jared ran after Bella, Emmett was the first one to speak.
"What was that?", he asked no one in particular.
I answered: "I don't know, but, I think Carlisle has caused this reaction."
Everyone was looking at me in disbelieve.
"When she first saw you, dad, and when you were talking to Jared, her emotions were like a whirlwind. It seems like she knows you. Have you ever met her before?", I asked.
Carlisle seemed to think hard.
"I think she looks familiar, but I'm not sure."
Then we heard Bella scream.
"Jared, let me go!" it was very quiet. They were barely in hearing range.
"It's him, isn't it. This man..." The rest was too quiet to understand.
"What am I supposed to do, huh?"
"... not running away... always wanted... get them... like a coward... braver than that...know you're afraid... find piece... at least, damn it!... know this is hard for you...turn out just fine..."
"OK, this has definitely something to do with you Carlisle. You must have left quiet the impression on this girl. And you really don't know from where you know her.", I asked.
"I'm trying but I just can't point my finger on it. I know her I'm sure of it."
While he said that I could feel Bella's emotions. Fear, uncertainty, and so many more.
Then Jared and Bella were in the living room again.
Bella went up to Carlisle.
"I'm sorry for my behavior. I didn't even introduced myself properly. My name is Isabella Marie Cullen."
Everyone gasped and realization hit Carlisle.
AN: I know I'm stretching the story pretty much and I'm sorry but it's pretty late again and I'm tired. But I'm trying to finish this story in the next chapter. Please review and tell me what you think.
