STEPHANIE MEYER OWNS TWILIGHT.
Chapter 6. I can still recall our last summer
BPOV.
"Bella!" Jasper exclaimed.
"Always knew how to make an entrance." Chuckled Emmett. I could feel the heat wash over my face. Those villagers could really get on my nerves sometimes. They'd actually shoved me through the trapdoor whilst I wasn't looking! I suppose it was payback as I was constantly pranking them. I glanced up to see Edward's dazzling green eyes gazing into mine. He had the most joyful look on his face you would ever see. But when I last saw him he looked pained.
"You need a hand?" He asked softly. Oh how I'd ached to hear the velvet voice when he deserted me. When he deserted me. No I'm not going to forgive him for the pain he caused me. He held out his hand patiently. He slowly dropped it when he seemed to feel the bitter vibes I was sending him.
"I'm perfectly capable of getting up myself." I replied indignantly. His face returned to pain when he absorbed my annoyance and my sharp snap. He thought I was gonna go and forget everything. Well he can think again. I picked myself up and I brushed myself down.
"Why are you here?" I began angrily. All three of them seemed to notice my anger toward them and Jasper's and Emmett's smiles swiftly became frowns.
"We were urm… Passing by! We thought we'd say hi … maybe um … catch up…" stuttered Jasper awkwardly.
"Oh really?" I questioned with my eyebrows raised. "All three of you?"
"Yes that's right" confirmed Emmett. My heart softened a little for Emmett. I had pretty much used him, although I know I had some small kind of feeling for him. But then again, it didn't mean he had to ignore me for 23 years and randomly turn up two days before my daughter's wedding! This fact made my fury boil even more.
"Well you shouldn't be here. Not now." I felt the tears welling up in my eyes. Come on Bella, knock it off, keep your cool a little voice whispered in my head. I tried my best to obey and to continue the conversation. All three of them stared at me, waiting for me to speak. It made me feel sick.
"Well, it was really nice 'catching up with you' you'd better set off now." I finally spat. I tried to be as polite as possible, but it was very difficult.
"Bella, don't be like this." Edward murmured. I couldn't help the warm feeling I always felt when I heard his voice.
"Don't you even talk to me. Anyway don't you have a wife to see to?" I couldn't stop the tears this time.
"Bella I'm not…"
"Save it Edward." I interrupted. "I want you out of here before the end of the day." I continued.
"Bella I…" Whispered Jasper. I didn't listen. I just climbed down the ladder and ran. I ran as fast as I could. I shot past Rose and Alice who were messing around outside.
"Bella!" They cried when they saw my tear stained face. I ignored them and ran into a toilet cubicle and secured the lock behind me. Then I just sobbed and wailed and snivelled.
Chiquitita
A: Chiquitita … tell me what's wrong?
R: I have never seen such sorrow
A/R: In your eyes and the wedding's … TOMMOROW! (In this case day after tomorrow…)
R: How I hate to see you like … this?
A: There is no way you can deny it!
A/R: Chiquitita tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend
I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together
Chiquitita you and I know
How the heart aches
Come and they go
And the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again
And the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky
And shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more
Like you did before
Sing a new song Chiquitita
B: Try once more, like I did before … Sing a new song…
"It's her dad." I sighed.
"Whose dad?" Rose gasped.
"Nessie's dad. Remember how I said it was Edward, Edward, Edward the business man who'd gone home to get married. But I'm not sure it was him because there were two others around the same time…" I burbled.
"Bella Swan!" Rosalie exclaimed with surprise. "You shady lady!"
"Why didn't you tell us?" Alice cried.
"Well I never knew that I would ever, EVER have to. I never imagined I'd see all three of them in my old goat house two days before my daughter's wedding!" I replied.
"The old goat house!" They gasped in unison, before dashing out the door. Oh crap. What had I gotten myself into?
NPOV.
I sped toward the old goat house to check if Emmett, Edward and Jasper had kept their promises. I shot up the ladder with excitement.
But it turned out they weren't the best at keeping their promises.
They were gone. C'mon Ness think! There must be a way to stop them, they can't have left too long ago, if I was lucky they might not have left the harbour yet. I jumped down the ladder and dashed in the direction of the harbour. As I was about to leave the villa I suddenly knocked right into Bree and Jane.
"Watch out Ness! Where are you going?" Bree asked.
"To. Stop. My. dad." I told them in between breathless pauses.
"What?" Began Jane. But I carried on my mad run toward the harbour. I heard footsteps padding behind me. I turned around to see them following in my wake. I shook my head and continued running, of course they had to be involved.
When we finally reached the harbour, I could see a beauty of a boat, not too far out from the shore. I could also see three silhouettes on board the ship. I didn't bother to wait to see if it was someone else, I unbuttoned my blouse and threw it at an alarmed Jane. Luckily I was wearing my navy blue swimsuit underneath my clothes. I quickly pulled down my shorts and flung them at Bree.
"Don't do it Ness!" Yelled Jane.
"I have to." I murmured. And I dived neatly into the turquoise coloured shallows.
Seeing as this was Greece, the water was comfortably warm so I didn't have to worry about that. Fortunately I was also a pretty decent swimmer, so it didn't take long to reach the boat. To my surprise, the boat was anchored. Hopefully they were dithering on weather they were mean enough to break my promise.
"Nessie!" I heard Edward yell. "What are you doing? Here take my hand." I swam towards his outstretched hand. When I was out of the water on the boat, Edward unbuttoned his shirt and handed it to me.
"Thanks." I shivered. I glanced up at Edward. I gasped when I saw his mind blowing body. I tried to feel disgusted at myself ogling at his body like this. He could be my father for all I knew!
"Why are you leaving?" I demanded. "You promised me you would stay!"
"We are … your mother kinda kicked us out…" Jasper explained.
"Oh… You didn't tell her did you?"
"No of course not!" cried Emmett. I sighed with relief.
We spent the rest of the afternoon on board the ship just well…catching up. I asked Jasper about the scars.
"I've been on many adventures in northern African jungles and many near to death experiences…" He briefly described.
"Wow…" Was I could reply. Well he would be an interesting father. I wandered over to Emmett who was strumming a very aged guitar.
"You play?" I wondered out loud.
"Yep. Bella and I used to write songs together." He replied thoughtfully.
"Really?"
"Yes. Actually, when I think about it … it doesn't actually seem that long ago…"
Our Last Summer
E:I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine
Laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass
By the Eiffel Tower.
Edward: I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret
J/E/Ed: Oh yes!
J: Those crazy years
That was the time
Of the Flower-Power!
Edward: But underneath
We had a fear of flying
E: Of growing old
A fear of slowly dying
J/E/Ed: We took a chance
Like we were dancing our last dance…
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
E: In the tourist jam
J: Round the Notre Dam
J/E/Ed: Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
I can still recall
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day
Worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play
Nessie: And now your working in a bank
The family man,
A football fan
And your name is 'Emmett…'
Em: How dull it seems…
Nessie: Are you the hero of my dreams?
J/E/Ed: I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam
Round the Notre Dam
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
: I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine
Laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
