BPOV:
I closed my eyes and moved so I was laying on my side facing the wall. I knew Rosalie didn't like me but to leave her family just because I was here, she must really hate me. I closed my eyes and must have fallen asleep because the next time I opened my eyes, it was dark. I stretched, making my shirt expose my stomach. I was just about to pull it down when a cold hand touched my stomach, making me jump. I looked over to see whose hand it was, Edward was laying on his side facing me with my favourite smile on his face. My breath caught in my throat, I could feel my heart speed up just at the mere sight of him. I know he heard my heart since his smile turned into a smirk.
He
still had his hand on my stomach and started rubbing smooth circles
with his thumb, enjoying how my heart reacted to this. I leaned over
and gently kissed him before pulling away. I heard him sigh in
frustration and I smirked, before hoping of the bed and going into
the bathroom for a shower.
I quickly washed my hair and just stood
under the water, enjoying the feel of the water on my skin until I
couldn't put off getting out any longer. Even the shower cap I
still had to wear for the stitches couldn't stop me enjoying the
hot water. I had made my decision I couldn't make Edward choose me
over his family.
EPOV:
I
heard Bella turn off the shower and knew I had to go upstairs soon. I
had already talked to Alice and she had confirmed that Bella had
heard our conversation last night. I could tell Alice was keeping
something from
me. I had repeatedly tried to find out what it was
but she kept focusing on what clothes she will be getting the next
time she went to the mall.
"Alice just tell me" I snarled at
her
"Who says I am hiding anything?" Alice asked teasing
me
"Alice" I growled louder this time.
"Edward" She
said, taunting me
I turned my back on her and raced upstairs to
find Bella already dressed and waiting for me on our bed. I smiled
and joined her wrapping my arms around her waist and brining her
closer to my chest. She rested her head on my chest moving her face
so her lips were on my neck. I felt her breath tickling my neck and
shivered involuntarily. I saw her smirk and heard her stomach growl
making her blush. I moved my hand so I could feel the heat on her
cheek before picking her up and running downstairs with her in my
arms. When we got downstairs Alice was waiting in the kitchen with
breakfast for Bella, with a huge smile on her face. I gave her a
suspicious look as Bella started eating. I walked over to get Bella a
glass of orange juice and was just about to sit down when I heard
Emmett calling me. I kissed Bella softly and told her I'll be back.
BPOV:
As soon as Edward left I knew Alice must have seen my decision and wanted to talk to me about it. I slowly finished my breakfast wanting to put it off as long as I can. "Bella I know what you are doing and it's not going to work. I was hoping to keep this from Edward, but if you want I can just tell him" Alice threatened.
I
quickly shook my head and looked at her not surprised to see a
determined look in her eyes. I looked at her expectedly and was
surprised that she picked me up and ran out of the house. I realized
it was out of hearing range for Edward. I knew I was in for it now;
she didn't want Edward to intervene. She ran with me in her arms
for about 10 minutes before putting me down on a rock and facing me.
I didn't want to look at her so I stared down at me feet.
"Bella
how dare you think about leaving Edward, leaving us, your family..."
Alice said in an angry voice but I could hear the hurt as well.
"Alice I am doing this for my family. I couldn't live with myself
if I was the case of breaking up your family" I said, feeling the
tears streaming down my cheeks
"I heard what happened last night, I know Edward would choose me over Rosalie and I can't let that happen. You guys have been together for longer than I have been alive." I said surprised that Alice hasn't interrupted me. I looked up to find Alice gone.
