At the end of the week Charlie was back and he was coming to pick Bella up. If I said I wasnt going to miss that sweet, innocent, warm little girl then I would be lying through my teeth. I would miss her terribly, more than anything. More than anyone has ever missed anyone else.
She was apart of me now. She was my life. Atleast thats what it felt like. Felt like. Hmm. I havent felt anything in a while. Suddenly a three year old brings that out in me.
We told her everything about us. When we said we were vampires she tried to see my fangs but I dont have any.
'What kind of vampires dont have fwangs?' She scoffed.
'Real ones.' I replied laughing.
'Cool!' She squealed.
That was yesterday.
"Charlies here." Esme whispered to me. I woke Bella up and she rubbed her eyes sleepily.
"Your daddys here." I said to her. Her eyes brightened and she ran out to him.
"Daddy!"
"Bella!" He said and took her in his arms. He had a tear run down his face.
"Oh god, I though I lost you baby girl." He said and stroked her hair.
She looked back at me and frowned.
She ran to me and I picked her up hugging her tightly.
"I dont want to go." She said.
I took her around back and sat on the wooden swing Esme made. She was still hugging me.
"Bella you have to go."
"No! I will miss you too much." She pulled back her tears were falling down her tiny chin. I almost choked up right then and there.
"Bella, theres something I need to tell you."
"What?"
"We are leaving."
"What? Where?"
"My whole family is moving. Somewhere not too far away. But you will not be able to see me."
"No!"
"Bella, sweetheart I am going to miss you terribly."
"Dont go. Pwease." She plead and buried her head in my chest.
"I have too. But I will make you one promise." I pulled her chin back to look her in the eyes.
"This will not be the last time you will see me. I swear we will meet again. A very long time from now though. I dont think you will remember me."
"I could never forget you." She said and placed her tiny hand on my cheek.
"You will. And I wont be mad. I cant live without seeing how you have grown up. So like I said, I promise we will see each other again. Whatever happens then, happens. I have a few gifts for you."
I pulled out the tiny blue backpack and she opened it. Inside was a Cd with her lullaby on it, a golden locket engraved with her name, with vines around it. On the back it said 'I love you my silly Bella'.
There was also my black and blue hoodie, my copy of Wuthering heights, a butterfly charm bracelet, and the yellow tulip she gave me, I purchased a plastic case and set the dying flower in it, it said in gold letters 'Unlike this flower my love for you will never die'.
She hugged me around my neck tightly.
"I love you my Edward." She whispered and kissed my cheek.
"I love you too my Bella." I brought her out front and she cried the whole way to Charlies cruiser.
He strapped her in the back. She looked out the window at me and waved with her small hand.
I waved back and smiled. As soon as her car was out of sight I felt broken. Heartless. Although I always am. Bella brought the heart back out in me. And she just took it with her. It will always belong to her.
"Lets go." I whispered and slipped in my car. They all got in their cars and drove ahead of me.
Before I took off I leaned my head back on the headrest to my seat.
"Bella." Dry sobs shook my body as I started the car.
I will see her again. I dont know when. And I dont know where. But I made a promise. And I will do anything to keep it.
I know its short, and Im sorry. But I want to stretch this story out as long as I can.
Review!
Please and thank you!
