Chapter 15
BPOV
We arrived at Emmeline's house – or mansion rather. It was huge, great and incredibly ugly. The sweeping towers were white and flowing, and everything painted in pastels – pale pink, pale blue, pale green, pale yellow, etc. As I stared up at the great structure, I felt a sudden sense of loss, and longing for the cozy house of the Cullens, which I had begun to refer to as home. Then came the sharper pain, the one that hit my heart directly for Edward. I gasped suddenly as the emotions, love for Edward, the loss of my father, the gratefulness I had for Esme and Carlisle and Alice… all swept through me, the impenetrable barrier of Edward now, impossibly, gone. I choked back my cries, and stumbled blankly into the great, white, blank house.

I stared out the window – it was raining. Typical, I suppose, but today it irritated me, as if some combined forces were out to make my day as miserable as possible. Glumly, I admitted it to myself. I was sulking. Me. Edward Cullen. Sulking. Usually words like that didn't fit into the same sentence – well, at least not since Bella came. I groaned at the thought of our last words. I told her I loved her…
"Stupid," I mutter to myself, "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" Anger abruptly inside me, I jumped up. "UGH!" Everything was so annoying!! The birds too loud, my arms to itchy, my fingernails too short and flat, the urge to jump up and down like a kid overwhelming. I had to move!! But suddenly Alice was there. Her presence was enough to calm my slight fit down… temporarily at least. She stared at me, concerned. Then frowned.
"Edward. Stop sulking." I pouted. I thought (well, hoped) no-one had noticed.
"It's not fair!" I'm whining and I know it. She grinned.
"Well, go get her then, you idiot!" I stared blankly.
"Go get her?" The thought had never even occurred to me. Hmmm. She shook her head sadly.
"Well, hurry up then!"
