A New Beginning

Chapter Thirty-Two:

Bella POV:

I was better. I think. Deciding what I finally had to do, messed me up again. I didn't want to do it; I just knew that I had to.

I never wanted to finally decide to cut Danny out of Leo's life forever. I never thought I would decide to do that, but after everything that has happened just recently…well, let's just say it was an impulse decision.

I didn't need to do it; I just wanted to do it. If that make's any sense at all.

For the last few days I had been thinking up every way possible I could go about this.

I could just say to Danny: "Look this isn't working, please just go away and leave me and Leo alone." (But thinking about that it probably wouldn't work.)

I could go to court. (Did I really want to have too put myself through that?)

I could get a restraining order. (I liked that idea, although it seemed kinda drastic.)

I thought that option two was probably the best way of going about things. I think that's what you had to do. Obviously I had never considered doing anything like this before and so I needed to really think it through. Hard.

It was February 5th now. So that would make it Wednesday. I like Wednesdays, they always seem like half-way through the week. I was absolutely dreading Valentine's Day. I know that seems really mean, but in truth I didn't actually want to 'celebrate' it. It was just so tacky and Ew.

But of course, Alice was literally forcing me to 'suck it up' as she put it. That obviously meaning something had been organised.

I'd met Jess in the parking lot on Wednesday morning. Angela wasn't with her, but she hadn't been here all week. She must have been really sick.

"Hey Bella!" She scuttled over to me and hugged me slightly. I hugged her back. It was Jess' morning routine. Act like she hadn't seen me in about three years and then run over to me and hug me.

"Hey Jess." I smiled at her.

"You look confused?" She cocked her head to the side a little bit, looking confused herself.

"Sort of. I have just been doing way to much thinking recently. I think my head might explode." I laughed.

"Did you get any acceptances yet?" Jess started walking so I followed.

"Yeah."

"Well? Where to?" She sounded more enthusiastic than me.

"Dartmouth and Alaska."

"That's really good Bella!"

"Sssh! You're the only person that knows."

"You haven't even told Edward?" She asked shocked. I shook my head.

"I don't know why I got accepted into Dartmouth. Like they would ever take me. But I don't want him to know anyway. Not yet."

"Bella. You really should tell him." She linked her arm through mine and we walked into English.

"I know. I'll tell him later." She looked like me like she didn't believe me. "I promise! Jeesh! You like to nag don't you?" I giggled.

"I'm only looking out for you Bella." We sat down at our desks.

"I know thanks." The lesson started then. I liked English, but it was pretty boring at the moment.

The majority of the school day was pretty boring actually. I was on my own in Math, which was joyful.

I was in the parking lot at the end of the day with Jess when Alice ambushed me. I mean literally, she kinda jumped in front of me and scared the crap outta me.

"Alice! Don't ever do that again! Unless you want me to have a heart attack! God!"

"Oops. Sorry Bella!" She grabbed my hand and pulled me towards her car.

"Bye Jess!" Jess just giggled. "Alice?"

"Yes Bella?"

"Do you wish to tell me where we are going?" She kept dragging me to her car and almost pushed me into the backseat. "Hey Rose." Rose was in the front seat.

"Hey Bella." She laughed. "You didn't tell her did you?"

"Tell me what?" I folded my arms.

"We are going shopping Bella." Alice looked at me. "Don't even think about trying to escape either!" I groaned.

"But why? And what about Leo?"

"Suck it up Bella. We need this shopping trip. Edward is dealing with that. Stop fussing."

"Fine." I sulked the whole way to Port Angeles. Alice knew I hated shopping and yet she still demanded that we go. All the time!

"You can stop sulking now Bella." Alice giggled as we arrived at the mall.

"I wasn't sulking I was just…" I tried to come up with a good excuse. "Fine I was, but you still make me come here! All the time!" I let myself out of Alice's car and walked round to stand next to her.

"Just never disagree with her Bella." Rose warned. "It has awful consequences." I nodded.

"Come on. Let's go." Alice linked her arm through mine and dragged me along.

We spent the next 2 and a half hours trawling through what seemed like every single shop in the mall. We were all carrying about 10 bags each. I didn't even want to know how Alice afforded all of this. She probably got like $200 a week allowance or something!

"Are you still trying to boycott Valentine's Bella?" Alice asked me.

"No. Because you keep nagging me about it, I am 'sucking it up'." I quoted her.

"Good. We aren't doing anything any more." She pointed to herself and then Rosalie.

"Why?"

"They didn't organise anything." She must have been referring to Jasper & Emmett. I couldn't help but giggle.

"You were so sure they had as well! Aww. What are you doing then?"

"A movie night. Except it's all about sad, romantic films. Titanic, etc. etc." She smiled. "They are just going to have to put up with it."

"You know what I'm doing as well don't you?" Both Alice and Rosalie nodded. "And you're not going to tell me, are you?" They both shook their heads that time.

"You are joining us for the movie night afterwards though." Alice smiled at me.

"Cool. Save Titanic until I get there please."

"Of course. We can all cry together then." Alice laughed.

We finished shopping and eventually got back to my house. Edward's car was there, (Bless him.) and so was the cruiser.

"See you tomorrow Bella." Alice called as I got out.

"Yeah, thanks for shopping. It was okay in the end." I walked up to the house and walked in.

"Momma!" Leo came sprinting at me and jumped into my arms. It's lucky I'm a good catcher.

"Hey, Baby." I smiled. "Are they in there?" I whispered to him.

"Yeah. Grandpa is in there talking to Daddy." I winced. I still wasn't used to Leo calling Edward that. I know that Edward is okay with it, but it still shocked me.

"Okay." I put Leo down on the floor and walked up to the living room door. Which was closed. I couldn't hear anything, which I didn't like. I moved back into the kitchen, so I didn't get caught eavesdropping.

"Guess who." Edward came up behind me and put his hands in front of my eyes.

"Hey." I spun round and wrapped my arms around him. "I missed you."

"You saw me like three hours ago." He kissed my hair.

"I know, but three long hours shopping with Alice makes it even worse." He laughed.

"It can't have been that bad." I coughed.

"You try doing it." He let go and I walked into the living room just as Charlie was coming out of it.

"Hey Bells."

"Hiya." I smiled. "Going somewhere?"

"I'm going to the Black's place for a while."

"See you later then." I sat down on the couch, next to Leo.

"Momma. The phone rang for you earlier."

"It did?" I looked at Edward. He nodded. Oh, fantastic. I got up and walked into the Kitchen and checked the answer machine. There was one. I pressed the play button.

"Bell. It's me. But you probably knew that." This is bloody fantastic. "Please, call me? I have to talk to you." He hung up.

"Idiot." I muttered. I deleted the message. I had no intention whatsoever of calling him. He could go to hell. Woah, my attitude had suddenly changed since this morning.

I sat down next to Edward. Who wrapped his arm around me.

"You heard the message didn't you? It's okay. I'm not calling him." I sighed. "I don't want to call him." Edward tightened his arm around me.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure. Like I said. I don't want anything more to do with him." I looked over at Leo then, who was asleep. I stood up and picked him. He was to far out for me to want to wake him up, so I just put him straight into his bed.

"I love you Leo." I kissed his forehead. "Nothing will ever change that." I sighed, and walked out of the room. I decided to go and put my pyjama's on. It was easier. I walked back downstairs and sat next to Edward again.

"Alice keeps bugging me about Valentine's." He stiffened. Hehe, this is why I was doing this, to see if I could get anything out of him.

"Really?" His voice broke at the end.

"Mm-Hmm." Hehe, this was fun! "It's annoying me."

"Why?" He sounded scared. Why was he scared? Bless.

"I don't know. I don't really like Valentine's day, but she keeps telling me something is happening."

Edward POV:

I was going to kill Alice! She knew exactly what I was planning for next Friday and she had told Bella that we were doing something? Ugh, so much for:

"Of course I'll keep it a secret Edward."

It wasn't going to be anything that special. I knew that Bella didn't like surprises or Valentine's day. Which was pretty annoying.

I had begun to have second thoughts about what I was going to do, I was thinking that everything had just been moving to fast recently. Well, I didn't really think that, but I was afraid Bella might get scared.

I had braved up today and actually talked to Charlie about it. He seemed okay with it, although he was worried that I was taking things too fast. In the end he seemed okay with it. He knew how I truly felt about Bella, and that I saw Leo as mine, even though he wasn't. He knew how Bella felt about me as well, and in the end I suppose I had nothing to worry about.

"I know you don't like Valentine's."

"You do?" Bella squeaked. She squeaked when she was surprised, or worried. I guess it was both now. I wasn't stupid, she had been trying to get me to tell her what I was planning. Not. A. Chance.

"Yep. I'm not telling you what we are doing either."

"Dang!" Her hand flew up to her mouth. "Shit." I laughed.

"I knew that's what you were trying to do." I hugged her tighter. "You're so cute."

"Sorry and Thank you." I stood up. I had to go home, as much as I didn't want too. I basically lived with Bella (pretty much) now anyway, but I think I got missed at home. So I had to spend some time there. "Going already?" Bella asked.

"I have too, love."

"Fine." She stood up too, I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her hair.

"I'll see you tomorrow."

"I hope so." She laughed.

I let go and walked to the front door. Bella followed me. I kissed her before opening the door.

"I love you." She reached up and kissed me again.

"I love you too." Forever. I knew that I was making the right decision. Next week would be perfect.
