I am going to get my answer one way or another.

I couldn't handle it, too much pain, too many horrible memories at once. I couldn't function because the next thing I knew I was falling to the ground, but never made it.

Chapter 10

Today was the day, the second day we spent in Disney World in Florida. I was celebrating my 5th birthday, and even get to spend it with my parents. It's a good thing that they are happy; I don't like it when they fight.

I opened my eyes for the first time, something was different. I don't remember being here. This place was new, I don't like it, I wanted to go back to where things were happy.

"Momma" I yelled with tears in my eyes, trying to find my way out.

That's when I turned into a beautiful kitchen, whose kitchen is this?

In the far right corner of the kitchen, my mother was there looking scared and confused.

I ran to her hugging, with fear that will not go away. One day you were in Disney, and the next day you wake up to a different place.

"Momma I want to go back to Disney" I said with tears in my eyes, tears that continue to spill.

"Sweetie, what are you talking about?" my mother said in a different tone.

Something was different about her, her voice, and her face. She is not my mother.

I pulled away from our embrace that is when I knew she was my mother, my real mother, the one who loves me, who cared for me, to make me happy.

"Mommy, can we go please go back to Disney. I want to visit Minnie and Mickey. Please, pretty please with a sugar on top." I said jumping up and down, and pouting.

"Bella, we haven't been there in so many years".

I was confused, we were just there.

"We were there yesterday. We had dinner with the pretty princesses in Disney world. Mommy they were beautiful, they even signed my book."

I ran to get my book, but then I remember I left it in my room.

How come she can't remember we were there yesterday?

I wore a nice blue dress, with flats, and my hair loose.

"Bella, can you go back to the room, while I talk to the Cullen's."

Who are the Cullen's?

I had never met them.

I wonder how many are there, if they are anyone who is my age. I would love to play with them.

Ya ya I might make a new friend, who might be my best friend, and my age.

I had left to the room, but I didn't make it, instead I listened to the conversation.

What can I say I am curious?

Can you blame me?

"What's wrong with her?"

It's hard to explain. She experience trauma, and sometimes that can trigger other memories, or loss of memory. That is different for everyone, I going to need time with her to get a better understanding what is going on with her."

I was confused, so what does this all mean?

I am only 5 years old.

I left the spot, making my way to where my mother was.

I hope they didn't know I was listening, that would have been weird.

There were people that I have never met. They were seven of them, and my mother and a guy who looks rather familiar.

I ran to my mother and whispered.

"Mommy, their beautiful. Who are these people?"

They were beautiful. How was that even possible?

"Hi Bella, my name is Carlisle Cullen, and this is the rest of my family. Here is Alice, and her husband Jasper, and my wife Esme, and here we have Emmet and Rose, and last we have Edward." he had pointed to every one of them.

When he introduced Emmet, I was scared, more terrified than ever.

"Hi Bella" was said from every Cullen, extending their hands, I flinched.

I was scared, I had never met them, and they are still considering strangers to me. I wasn't supposed to talk to strangers.

Mom always told me "Don't speak to strangers."

"What's wrong?" the pixie one said, who happens to be Alice.

"Nothing, I am not supposed to talk to strangers. I don't know you guys, even thought I know your names. I don't know you."

It was the truth, I was always taught to be safe, and never trust stranger.

"You don't remember us?" Emmet said with pain.

"No, I am sorry."

I hope they don't think I am rude, because I am not.

"So you don't remember this?" He came closer; he was scarring me in a way.

He embraced me in a bone crushing hug, which was soft.

I didn't know him, I don't like it.

"Get away from me. I don't know you. I don't remember. Leave me alone."

I ran and cried to the forest. I wanted to be at ease, and calm down. Why everyone kept telling me to remember.

What is so important that I need to remember?

"Bella, don't be scared. It's me Edward."

Someone said coming from behind me. This voice made everything go away.

'I am sorry for my behavior earlier. You see I don't know you guys and it kind of scared me, but you on the other hand everything seem to get better. I am only 5 years old and I am not supposed to talk to stranger, but you don't feel like a stranger. I feel like I have known you for so many years."

He came closer and say next to me trying to comfort me some more.

"Edward you are cold. Don't you need a jacket, because mom always said, when someone is cold, they need a jacket."

"No it's okay. I am fine." He tried to reassure me.

"It's a miracle, I ran without falling. I am always getting hurt. I have scars to prove them." He chuckled, he thinks this is funny, always being in the hospital for getting hurt, and even people know who I am. That is not funny, it is an embracement.

"I got these 3 weeks ago, I was running and tripped over my feet, and started to bleed. I hate the way blood smells. It smells like rust and salt to me."

"I was playing on the monkey bars, and fell hitting my head in the process."

"I am one big klutz, and always getting hurt, and I hope that changes when I grow up.

"Let's get you back because I think your mom is worried about you."

He was right, mom always worried about me, and that will never change. The only way to stop this was to go back home. I had followed Edward so I won't get lost, knowing myself I would get lost.

'Hello, Bella."

"Sorry, who are you?" I was curious.

In reality I did forget his name, and seemed to forget everyone else's, who seemed to be in the same room.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to yell and run from you." I said looking at the scary guy. I didn't know, what came over me.

I gave him hug, letting him know that I am not scared.

"Bella, we need to talk."
