'I hate this, you did this to me' a female voice said
'its al your fault. You killed me.' She said again
That's the third time I've heard that voice since I've been out of the facility. I could hear the sadness and anger in her voice. I thought if I left then everything would be better for her…
X Flashback x
"Ummm, hi. Uh..Tanya..?" I said to her in the school hallway at her locker.
"Hey Edward, what's up?" She said
"Well, I was wondering, you know since, we've been hanging out a lot. And you know I really…"
I couldn't help it I froze on the spot. I didn't know how to tell her. My best friend Demetri just said 'Go for it man" wow wise words of encouragement. I mean how do you tell the most prettiest, popular girl that you want to be the one for her. I mean 'the one and only soul mate'. I've had a crush on her since elementary. We've been friends since we were kids. I mean, wouldn't you be nervous too? Ugh, what if she rejects me? I can't blow this. How do I tell her how I feel without ruining our friendship…
"Uh huh…Edward what is it. C'mon just spit it out." She said.
"Well, maybe if I did this you'll know…" I said as I got closer, and closer to her. Staring at her lips. I'm pretty sure she got the idea. I leaned in and kissed her. Hrmm. I've never kissed a girl before. Her lips were soft, and I tried to be as gentle as possible being inexperienced.
I leaned out and opened my eyes to see her reaction. I was bracing myself for a slap in the face when she said "Finally…"
"Huh?" uhh, what does she mean by that?
"I've been waiting for you to do that since, middle school." She confessed.
"Wait.. what?" I'm so confused right now. "wake up dumbass, she likes you!" a tiny voice said to me.
'Edward, I understand your feelings toward me and I-" I interrupted her
"So, you like me back right?' I asked with a smirk
She smiled, 'Yes Edward!" She said in the cutest voice, and patted me on the head like I was a dog
I laughed and held her close to me and she hugged me around my waist and looked up at me.
"I've always loved your eyes, they seem to dazzle me every time you look at me." She reached up on her toes and I bent down a little to meet her lips with a sweet kiss.
'Uhh, Finally!" Demetri said from behind us.
Me and Tanya looked at each other and busted out laughing
"That's what I said!" she said loudly.
"Yeah, I dazzle her."I said with a smirk.
TPOV (in the hospital, waking up from a dream)
Green eyes. Where have I seen those green eyes? And I keep hearing this velvet voice in my head. Wow! I sound crazy, better no tell Dr. Gibson about that.
Maybe the voice belongs to the eyes. Maybe its some one I knew before the 'accident'. No one will tell me anything. Why isn't he here? Every time I hear his voice, it's always saying soothing things to keep me calm. His voice makes me feel safe. I don't know why, but every time I ask my Dad and Demetri about before the 'accident' they say the same thing. "it's all in the past, you shouldn't worry about it."
Weirdos.
One way or another, I will find out what happened before, and I'll do it all on my on.

Afterschool when I got home
"Edward, did you take your pills?" Esme asked me,
I almost hesitated but, if I were to keep the ruse I had to hide it.
'Yes."
"Okay." She said with a weary look on her face.
I don't want her to worry about me but, If I were going to be with Bella some day I and to be myself. Not numb Edward. The facility really helped me, but I think I need to do this on my own.

"How long will you be staying?" the receptionist lady asked me.
"As long, as it takes." I said in a sad voice.
"Please sign this form, and I'll give you your room key. Would you like a single?"
"Yes." I prefer to suffer alone
'No amount of suffering will erase what you did' a voice said…
After the 'incident' with Tanya, I went to the police and turned myself in. People might say I did the right thing but I don't think I paid for my actions. Later on I found out that Tanya had been in a coma since…what happened. After that my Uncle took me to the Doctor, they did a series of tests which I didn't really understand. Then a week later I look up 'solutions for troubled teens' on the internet and that's when I found 'Volcano Institute'.
I signed the forms and the and got my room key. After settling in I went to the cafeteria to eat lunch. And that's when I met the girl with the spiky hair. Who knew she'd change my life forever.

Dinner
Esme, Carlisle, and Emmett are a really nice. I like it here. I feel like I'm apart of a real family.
Back in Oakland, I lived with my Uncle Al since my parents died, it was different. Sometimes I miss it there. But then I look at what I've done, and think its better that I moved here.
"Hey Edward you wanna play video games later?" Emmett asked. He's like the brother I've always wanted, being that I was an only child
"Yea, sure!" I said
Across the table I saw Esme give Carlisle a smile, I guess she likes that I'm here too. Maybe some day we'll all be a happy family.
'You'll never be happy.' She said…
