A week has passed since the funeral. I finally mustered enough strength to go to Danny's apartment.

When I pushed open the door and tears started swelling in my eyes. The place was the same as he had left it. His jacket was laid on the couch, his school books scattered on his desk, there were dishes on the counter. It felt weird to be standing in his apartment knowing he wasn't coming back.

I walked around his apartment, thinking of all the moments we had shared together here. I noticed the remote to the stereo and turned it on. He had been listening to the mixed cd that I had made him months ago.

I went into his room and a few minutes later I walked into the living room, dressed in one of shirts and a pair of jeans. I picked up a photo and crawled on his couch. I squeezed my eyes shut and bit my lip, trying to stop the uncontrollable sobs.

***********

I just laid there and cried for what seemed like hours. I finally got up and made my way around the apartment again. I wanted to grab a few things before I left.

Twenty minutes later I was walking towards the door. I looked back once more and pulled the door shut, my hands began to tremble. I was going to lock the door for the last time. I took a deep breath but the tears streamed uncontrollably down my face. I felt a hand on my shoulder and jumped.

"It's just me Bella."

I turned, wiping the tears off my face. "You scared me, Alice. What are you doing here?

"I saw you standing here, crying. I thought you might need a friend." She wrapped her arms around me.

"I can't do it, Alice. No, I don't want to…I can't lock the door."

"I know." She grabbed the keys from my hand and locked the door. I just stared at the door, I couldn't bring myself to move.

"Bella." Alice whispered softly.

I nodded my head and followed her out the building. I climbed in the back seat of the cab as she put the stuff in the trunk of the cab.

When Alice sat down next to me, I looked at her. "Alice, will you …."

"I already told them you needed to talk. They're waiting for us at your apartment."

I nodded my head and leaned back in the cab, clutching his jacket in my arms.

***********

We walked through the door of my apartment and Jasper immediately came over and took the stuff from Alice hands.

I walked into my living room and saw everyone waiting for. Esme got up and came me a hug. "Bella, honey, are you alright?"

I pulled away and smiled her. "Yes, I'm fine."

I sat on the couch in between Alice and Jasper. I sat there a minute before I spoke up. "Umm…there is something very important I want to talk to you about."

I looked down at my lap. "I can't do it, I can't stay here anymore, it's very painful. When I open the door, I still expect Danny to be standing there waiting for me. I wake up in the mornings, hoping that it was all a bad dream but I get up and he's still gone."

I took a deep breath, I was ready to cry but Jasper sent a wave of calmness. I turned and smiled at him. "Thank you Jazz" I looked at everyone else. "So I decided that I am moving back to Forks.

"Bella, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes, I am sure." I looked the photo of Danny and me. I stayed silent for a minute before I took a deep breath and continued. "So I was hoping you helped me, Carlisle."

"I will help you anyway Bella, what do you need?"

"I was hoping you would sell my apartment. I am going to take certain things with me but everything else stays. I am not selling Danny's apartment, so I also was hoping that you would find a qualified and respectable service to clean and air out Danny's apartment every four months."

"I can do that. When do you want to leave?"

"The sooner the better."

"We'll be gone by the end of next week." Alice said.

EPOV

I watched her as she and Carlisle talked about the arrangements for the move back to Forks. I knew she was pain, everyday she suffers more. Her hair was tousled, her eyes were red from crying and had dark bags under them, her face was stained from her tears, and she was paler than I ever had seen her.

Bella's face was filled with pain, I knew she was devastated about Danny's death. She was in so much pain and I could do nothing to stop it. Every second I watched her suffer was torture, I would pay anything, do anything to take her pain away. I wanted to pull her into my arms like I used to and comfort her. I wanted to be her protector, make her feel safe, like nothing could hurt her. Unfortunately I couldn't do that, all I could was comfort her whenever she needed me.

I know these last few chapters have been slow but I figured she need a grieving period. Keep filling my in box with reviews. It makes my day! :D
