Edward's POV
It's been ten years since I've seen Bella or anybody else in Forks, Washington. But I just can't resist anymore.
Charlie is at the station, working, so I sneak into the house. It still smells like Bella, the scent assaults my senses. I look around, searching for any hints as to where Bella could be living now. I come across some mail on the table; I flip through it. Most of it's just junk mail, a paycheck in the middle, then, I finally see Bella's handwriting. Fifty-six Quiliute Terrus. I don't think of how it's on the reservation. I run, not quite caring if anyone glimpses me now.
I take cover in the woods as I find the road. I stop behind one house for a moment, to clear my thoughts. I see a man doing the dishes, a young boy on the phone, and a toddler playing with her dolls. I listen as the boy yells to his mother and gas as I see his face. He has my color hair and eyes the exact same green mine used to be. Who is this boy?
Then I hear his mothers response.
"Sure Mason, I'll bring you over around noon. Okay?" Bella's voice calls back. I can't breathe as I form millions of possible scenarios in my mind as I realize the man doing the dishes is Jacob Black.
I look through another window to see Bella brushing her hair. She'd just finished getting dresses. She pulled the brush through her hair once more and set the brush down. I watch as she walks back into the room with her family, but something's off about her walk. It looks slightly like a waddle I watched her waddle towards Jacob and gave her a quick once over. She was wearing a pretty blue cotton stretch that went with her skin perfectly with some black sweats. I stopped at her stomach, ballooning out into a five or six month pregnant belly. I felt a stab of despair in my chest as she hugged Jacob and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
He smiled and slicked water at her face as she stuck her tongue childishly out at him before laughing and going over to the boy.
"Mason, if you want me to bring you to Kevins' for noon, go shower and get dressed. Don't forget to brush you teeth and pack because you're sleeping over." she told him as he turned to do what he was told.
"Sarah, do you want to go shopping with mommy today?" Bella turned to the little girl.
"Yeah!" the girl, Sarah, yelled, dropping her dolls. Bella smiled and picked her up to go get her changed.
I couldn't stand this anymore. I had to leave. I tore my eyes from the happy family and sprinted back home.
"Edward!" Esmes' firm, warm arms caught me at the door. "What's wrong? Talk to me. What's wrong with my boy?" her maternal side took over.
"She's moved on. She's happy now." was all I said as I began sobbing tearless, gut wrenching sobs.
