Chapter 13

BPOV

Last night was the most restful sleep I've had since the attack. I felt as if I was ready to face Edward and the Cullens again. Maybe even ready to continue our relationship. That is if he would still want me. I know Drake and I was wrong and I hate myself for hurting Edward like that. As easy as it would be to hide this from Edward I know it would be a million times worse if he found out on his own accord.

Hoping that things wouldn't be weird when I woke up with Drake, I open my eyes. I'm not sure when he left, but Drake was nowhere to be found. I guess he was just as nervous at the confrontation as I was. Holding the blanket up to my chest, I move to get up. On Drake's pillow is attached a piece of paper. Grabbing it I scan my eyes from left to right of it.

'Good Morning Beautiful Bella! Don't think that I was trying to skip out on you, I just thought you would be more comfortable not waking up to me. If you want to talk, I'll be at the bar/restaurant around the same time. If I don't see you again, I just want you to know that Edward is a lucky man to have you in his life. Take care of yourself Bella.

~Drake'

Edward? How did he know about him? I know I didn't mention….oh no! I said his name before drifting off to sleep last night. Well I there was no use in fretting over it know. Getting up I walk over to the shower, I'll decide whether or not I'll meet up with Drake later.

EPOV (Starts right before Drake and Bella are together)

It's been two weeks since Bella has left and I wasn't any less frazzled. I just hope she is okay, it is literally taking everything in me to not get up and run to her. But we had agreed we would give her the time she needed, we owed her that much. I owed her that much and so much more. I should have stopped this, everything that happened was preventable. But I failed my Bella. I would understand perfectly if she decided she didn't want me anymore.

Alice was sitting across from me, she had been practically begging me to look into Bella's future but I wanted to give Bella some privacy. It's not like I wasn't curious but I needed to do the right thing for Bella as much as possible. Alice grudgingly agreed. Emmett and Jasper were playing their Xbox and Alice was using her visions to help Jasper get the upper hand.

"Oh No!" Alice bolted out of her seat and screamed. Her mind was a tangled mess and didn't offer me any answers. Running over to me, she jumbles out what bothered her.

"Edward, I swear I wasn't looking, but Bella's in trouble!"

"Wait a minute Alice, what's going on?" I try to calm her down so I can understand her better, looking at Jasper for support.

"You're right, sorry. I saw Bella in some ratty motel and this man was on top of her!" Alice said, now she was hysterical again. As soon as I heard that, I flew out the door with Alice and Jasper tailing me.

"Where is she?" I shouted in a frenzy. Alice throttled her Porsche and shot forward.

"I'm not sure exactly. I saw a motel near a Welcome to Montana sign." Alice answered. The rest of the car ride was relatively quiet. I know I said that Bella was a danger magnet, but I wasn't quite serious. I hoped that this wouldn't damage her recovery that much or push her farther away from me, as selfish as that may seem.

By the time we got there, the sun had long since dunked under the horizon. The motel was shabby and nothing like we were used to. With all the resources that Bella had at her disposal, this is what she settled with. That was part of what amazed me about her. She wasn't impressed by material possessions in any way, she is thoughtful and kind-hearted. To me she is just perfect.

"There in that bar! Her emotions are…confusing. I can't quite label them." Jasper pointed out. What Bella would be doing in a bar was beyond me, but I was anxious to make sure she was okay.

BPOV

It was half past seven and I decided that it would only be right and proper for me to meet with Drake. I didn't want him to think any less of me. Throwing on a simple outfit consisting of a knee length skirt, and a button blouse. One thing I was certain of, there would be no more drinking for me. At least in the immediate future.

Walking into the bar I look for Drake. I don't see him at all, maybe he changed his mind. I wouldn't be shocked at all. I was ready to give up but my eyes fell on a table in the background. Smiling, he waves me over.

"Hello Drake. For a minute there I thought you were going to skip out." I joked.

"I would never do that to you Bella. Now you must be hungry, go ahead and order something." Drake insisted.

"Uh, Drake I wanted to talk to you about, about Edward. I don't know how to say this but you should know…" This was definitely uncomfortable. I'm sure it was for him as well.

"I should know that Edward is the love of your life and that last night can and will never happen again. I understand Bella, and I hope everything works out with Edward." Drake took my hand in his and smiled. If everything didn't work out with Edward, I don't know what I would do.

The creaky door swung open. I didn't have to turn around to notice the scents that permeated my senses. I wasn't expecting to have to deal with this so soon. My chest is throbbing and I'm sure that Edward is going to be through with me now, if he wasn't already. Looking at the floor, I saw Edward's legs come to a stop at my table.

Taking in a deep breath I bring my face up to meet his. "Edward! Hi, it's good to um, see you." The moment I say it I feel like an utter fool. There is little I can do to escape the fact that I've been caught red handed. I feel myself calm down dramatically for some strange reason. Looking over Edward's shoulder I see Jasper smiling at me with reassurance.

"Hello Bella. Alice has been dying to see you, do you mind speaking with her for a bit while I talk to your, friend?" Edward spoke with a soft tone and smiled with warmth in his eyes. Maybe everything would work out after all.

((AN: I was hoping to put the Drake and Edward interaction in this chapter but I just couldn't fit it in. Well…I could have but I would have had to update the story tomorrow instead of tonight and I didn't want to do that. I've been neglecting my other stories terribly, so I have to give them some tlc tomorrow, so look for an update around Sunday or Monday.

Now how about some….reviews? Please and thank you!))
