Chapter 6
After I had collected myself and pushed all of the more frightening thoughts from my mind, I glanced at my old best friend. "Alice, why… why didn't you see any of this? Ean and Luke and me?" Her head snapped up, like she hadn't been paying attention, " Bella, I really don't know. Edward told me that we should leave you alone, and that I shouldn't check on you. Even though he is my brother, you are my sister, and I needed to make sure you were okay. Whenever I was away from Edward I would look for you, and for a while I didn't get anything, but almost a year after we left you I started catching blurry glimpses of you, smiling or laughing or studying. But, you were always the only one in focus, nothing around you was ever clear enough to distinguish. It was horribly frustrating, but I told myself that obviously you were happy, and I didn't need anymore then that." That seemed like a good answer to me. "When can I see everyone else? Angela got us passes for the weekend, but I can even explain to Luke that I need to talk to all of you and stay longer. Do you live around here?" "Well, actually we live a few hours away, but I don't know what we should do now. It is really all up to you, since we left you, and we are disrutpting your life. No one else has to know I saw you Bella, I left you years ago, and if you really want me to I can do it again. The way we left was horrible, and the last thing we want is to upset you anymore." I almost smacked her I was so upset.
"Alice, even though my story sounds happy enough, every day I miss all of you. And every day I wonder what it would be like if I found all of you, and Ean met his real dad, and got the family I had dreamed of him getting. Now that I found you I don't want you going ANYWHERE Alice. I honestly do not know what I'm going to do about Edward, but he deserves to know and get the choice to be in Ean's life. So does everyone Alice, because even if you did all leave your family, and family doesn't just go away forever. I would like to get a chance to talk to Edward, alone, very soon. Today would not be too early at all. I don't know what I'm going to say yet, but he needs to know. You can tell everyone else you found me, and they can decide if their interested in hearing the story from me. But Alice, don't you ever suggest something so insane as me telling you to leave forever again. I may have survived it once, but I will not make it a second time."
Throughout my speech, I could feel my eyes getting watery and my voice rising octaves, and Alice's eyes got more and more sad and guilty, and then finally relieved. After squeezing me so hard I almost lost all air supply, Alice said that she would go back to Emmett and Edward, while I sorted out everything else. Then I could meet her at a café down the street after I got some sleep and talked to Luke.
A/N Okay, thank you to everyone who reviewed before last chapter, but now I'm going to start thanking you personally. andys-lovelytwilight, Isabella4ever, patd122, jkmk, SilverAngel1234, and Mishelle20 for the awesome reviews.=)
Freakishly short chapter I know, but I hate changing thoughts in the middle of a chapter and so I can do what I want to next I needed to stop here. And I thought I made Bella ramble a lot, but I want to show that even if she understood why they left, it still hurts. Was it too much? I 3 reviews. =)
