I was on my way back to Washington. I hadn't been there in over four years. I still remember the day I left the only girl I ever loved behind to attend a stupid college. I'm just glad about one thing and that I got to give her my virtue. Now as I stand in one of the nicest restaurants in Seattle with my co-worker Tanya, who to me seems like she might sleep around a lot. Just as we were about to be brought to our table I see her coming out of an office. She looked different she looked happy I wonder what she's doing here she was supposed to be at Yale. Bella Swan looked up and saw me and she looked shocked, horrified and angry and I have no idea why. Both of us just stood there staring at each other, God she was so beautiful. I remembered why I feel in Love with her in the first place. God I still love her, she won't give me a second chance I blew it when I didn't answer her calls. I wonder if she's moved on. Just as I'm thinking this I see
Bella's brother Jasper coming up behind her with a little girl who looks t be around three or four years old. Huh...he had a kid with Alice, but then the little girl ran up to Bella and said ''Mommy'' to her. I froze so she had moved well crap. Shit I was a fool for leaving her. But something didn't feel right.
After I got a good look at the kid I know who her parents are because she has her mother's small nose and she has my eyes and hair. But why didn't Bella tell me she knew I wouldn't turn them away or did she. She knew I loved her with all my heart so why not tell me I have a daughter. I started to get angry when she said nothing on who was the father. When she finally admitted that I was in fact the child's father I was shocked to say the least. Then Bella went on to say how she tried to contact me but I never answered anything from her or our friends I felt bad straight away. I knew Bella wanted to talked to me I didn't pick up because I didn't want to feel any more pain that I was feeling, that hell I'm still feeling. While Bella is now ranting of about how stupid I was and I cant disagree with her because I was. And now I'm a fucking fool for not answering her phone calls. I stood there and all I kept thinking was that I'm a sad moron. My little girl grew up without father and it's my entire fault. Bella just turns away and leaves in the direction she came in.
Now as I'm on my way over to her house at nearly midnight I couldn't stop thinking about that little girl. Who's name I still don't fucking know yet! Just as I arrive at her home my heart starts to flutter for good and bad reasons. I muster up the courage to walk to her door and ring the bell, but stop quickly as it's late and the little girl would be asleep. Bella would kill me for sure if I woke her up. Crap what if she's asleep. I was about to walk away when I hear the T.V, so I knock and wait for her to come.
I heard her mumbling behind the door so I just stood there and waited.
''I can hear you mumbling Bella. Just open the door I just want to talk with you. Please just open the door. I'm not leaving until you do''.
''Shit! Crap!''Bella whispered but loud enough for me to hear. I chuckled.
''Cursing isn't going to help you open the door Bella.''
Finally she open it up. My breath hitched when I see her in a pair shorts and a small tank top. It made her look more beautiful from when I saw her a while ago.
''Come in, sit down whatever'' she whispered.
''Thank you'' God I want to kiss her right now, on her perfect lips.
I sat down on the sofa and Bella sat on the chair opposite me. We just sat there in uncomfortable silence. I spoke first breaking the silence.
''What's her name?''.
''Alexis Elizabeth Masen. She was born on the 22 July 2005 on a Saturday morning at was five weeks early, 'cause your doin the math in your head''. She was right of course, she always is. Alexis Elizabeth Masen. She named her middle name after my mother. And she gave her my last name.
''I'm sorry. I know that doesn't cover anything but I did call you once and a man answered. I asked who he was and he said he was your boyfriend. That was about two months after I got settled into Dartmouth. That right there broke my heart''. She froze when I said that I don't know why. I wonder if there still together.
''When exactly was this'' her voice was only a whisper and it broke twice.
''I can't remember. But he said his name was James? And that you were his had been for about two months, said he showed you a real good'' It made my heart ache when I said those ways. What can I say I still love the girl?
''That son of bitch. Stupid asshole''. She looked at me with pain in her eyes.
''What?''
''He was a sleaze who stole my phone so he could talk me. I was seeing him. How could you think that? You really think of me to get with someone so soon?''
''No. Shit I'm sorry, but still you knew where I was why not come to me?''
''I thought you were ignoring me''.
She looked beautiful just sitting there. ''Can I meet her?''I asked her nervously. I kept fidgeting waiting for her answer.
''Would you like to meet her as her father or a friend? 'Cos I'm not letting you near her if you're not goin to stick around. I won't put her through that. I won't let her get attached to you then you take off so tell me now are you goin to take off?'' Bella was rambling once again just like in the restaurant tonight.
''No I'm not goin to take off. Yes I want to meet her as her father. And I wont hurt if that's what your thinking Bella''.
''Fine you can meet her. How say 1, it is tomorrow's when I pick her up from the crèche. I suppose you'll be bringing your girlfriend with you to?''
What the hell was she talking about a girlfriend? ''I don't have a girlfriend, haven't in oh 4 years'' I saw something flash in her eyes.
''Then who was your friend tonight ya'll looked real cosy'' What that tramp Tanya she thought me and her, who that's funny. Haha she's a slut.
''Tanya and I aren't dating she's my co-worker I only got into town a few days ago she offered to she me around. I accepted. And besides she's a slut''.
At that Bella started to laugh. God I loved that laugh. ''Oh right well sorry. So is 1 okay for you?''
''Yeah it's fine. Will I meet you hear or what?''
''At the restaurant is fine. If it's okay with you to meet there?''
''Yeah that's fine. So do you work there?'' She started laughing again I didn't know what was so funny?
''No I don't just work there. I own it,'' my eyes grew wide as she continued ''Well me and Alice own it but really I run as she more focused on salon''
''You own it wow...that's...pretty good...cograts...so what now?''
''Em...I don't know, oh do...You um...want a drink or something?'' No a drink is definitely not what right now.
''Uh I think I should get goin...um can I call you tomorrow before we meet up?'' I cleared my throat God why was I so nervous?
''Yeah su...sure...um it's...oh wait you already have it. How did you get it so fast anyway?''
''Um I've had for a while now. About 2 weeks I was trying to muster up the courage to call...You...so yeah my buddy at the hospital got it for me'' I laughed in my head when I seen her chart and how many times she was in the E. R, some say she's on a first name basis.
''Oh...Okay ''
''Right well I get out of your hair now''. We walked to the door in silence.
''Goodnight Edward''.
''Goodnight Bell'' I saw her freeze when I called her my old nickname for her. I almost called her Love but caught myself in time. That wouldn't go down well.
I turned just before being fully out of the door and bent down to give her a kiss on the cheek. What happened next surprised me.
She turned her head and kissed me on the lips. I froze, but quickly recovered and kissed her back. I wound my arms around her waist as her hands went into my hair, just like old times. This kiss turned very passionate. I traced her bottom lip with my tongue and she opened up straight away. After a few minutes we both pulled away breathing hard. I rested my forehead on hers and looked into her beautiful chocolate eyes. I said something I've been dying to say since I seen her early tonight.
''I love you. I never stopped, I haven't had sex with anyone with knowing I was still in love you'' I waited for her to say something anything but she just stood there frozen. When she did speak up my heart went into over-time.
''What toke you so long?'' She brought her lips back to mine. She pushed me up against the door with a lot of force.
''I love you too! But what does this mean?''
''Could we try and be a couple?''
''I think I could do that. But were taking things slow. I don't won't to rush into anything''
''That's fine with me. Do you want to tell people or keep it to ourselves for now?''
''We might as well tell people, 'cos I'm guessing the pixie already know''.
''Okay well I'll let you go and sleep, and I'll see you tomorrow''
''Yeah see you soon''
''That I will Love''
She closed the after I gave her a kiss on the cheek. I can't believe this day. On my way back to my I think of all that's happened. First I see the love of my life, and then I find out that I have a daughter with Bella and now I have her back in my life and a little girl. I can't wait for tomorrow. Maybe we could take our little girl to the park. As I drifted to sleep I couldn't stop liking the sound of our little girl.
Our little girl.
