Chapter 7: Winds Of Change

Bella Swan lent against the door jamb of Edward's second room, her new room for the next year and three quarters. She sighed How time is flying these days. Soon a wind of change would come and she'd be living in Forks best friendless and living with Charlie again.

She wondered if there was a point to even bothering to come back to Seattle. Edward had spent the last four months emailing his column from Forks while he had his first bout of Chemotherapy which had amazingly not taken any of his hair except for a few grey strands that he'd laughed about. It was something of a normality at the moment.
Maybe that's his reason for returning? She mused The sense of something normal, something none cancer related?

Bella couldn't blame him nor could she imagine what he was going through especially after that bitch Tanya had dumped him in his hour of need.
I'd like to re-arrange her face for her or maybe make her bald first? Her mind smirked at the thought of those pretty strawberry locks falling to the ground and Tanya crying for them... Then Edward would be sad most probably and he doesn't need that right now. He needs to enjoy the time he has left. That thought made her shudder at the realisation of his little time left on this stop the trickle of tears in her eyes from falling she shook those thoughts form her head and walked into the room.

Edward and Emmett were placing her brand new double bed down on the floor arguing about where she'd like it best.
'Eddie just under the window is best women like that dreamy shit where they can look into the stars.' Emmett grumbled dropping the bed down with a bang.
'And when has Bella ever been that type of girl? She's not like the airheads you date.' Edward snapped back thrusting the bed towards the wall 'She'll want it under the book shelf dickwad.'
'Yeah and what does she read Eddie? Those classic girly novels by Jane Bonton.' Emmett said thrusting it back towards him.
'My name is not Eddie! I am not a pizza delivery boy who lives in Tim Curries shoe cupboard!'

Bella burst out laughing watching the two bicker and stepped into the room.
'Yeah but you were Pizza delivery boy for Pizza On The Fork when you were 14.' Bella said factually ignoring Edward's glare. This was a undisclosed truth from his youth in Forks of which only his parents knew. She pushed the bed with some effort against the far wall away from both objects.
'And actually I read Jane AUSTIN and Emily BRONTE thank you idiot which I know you knew because you have a copy of the first hidden in your magazine pile.' Emmett's smug face too evolved into a glare at this fact. With a smirk she toppled backwards onto her bed and watched both men continue to arrange her room with directions of course.

A Week Later

Edward Cullen had been back at work now for two weeks with the same enthusiasm as ever even when his boss was wary about giving him an over load of assignments however as Edward had stated it kept things, namely Cancer, from his mind. Plus his list was getting more fulfilled now his life was organised once again. He'd even met David Beckham the previous day!
Funny how the day seems less wasted when you're elbow deep in columns and interview questions Edward mused.

People he hardly spoken too up until now were bending over backwards for him throughout the day including his said boss Victoria. He even came into work to find a Star Bucks awaiting him each morning on his desk piping hot too although he had no idea to whom this was from...

Victoria had given him a second smaller column too now after a flood of sympathy letters from his readers when he announced his illness. This one was for the Health and Well Being page; it was a journal of sorts a day in the life of a Cancer Patient. Only a paragraph or so long but just to document what it was like; raise awareness and such.
When the idea had been proposed to him, although his family was not satisfied with the idea, he quickly agreed on the pretence that maybe someone would read it and nip their own illness in the butt before it could get any worse. He hoped that if it did the person would get in touch and tell him just so he could feel somewhat better about his condition.

Edward tapped his foot anxiously on the linoleum floor of his office staring at the opaque clock waiting for 5pm to hit. At present it was five to five and time seemed to just be tormenting him with its slowness. However deep inside him he was willing it to stop completely. This for once was nothing to do with his impending doom but due to his nervousness of the night that was to come. Tonight was the night a wind of change would pass by Bella and he causing either catastrophe or, as he prayed, a miracle. Only a week earlier had he been like this too awaiting Bella's arrival in Seattle.

He'd already handed in both of tomorrow's columns and both edited and proof read them so at five o'clock on the dot he could rush from the office and get into his car to get home. He'd need to take a shower and clean himself up first obviously but by the time Bella was home from food shopping; Every Thursday between 5 and 6 pm she'd told him, he'd already be dressed in his usual date attire.

Date Edward visibly flinched; Tanya had been the last date he went on and that had gone up in flames Tanya was the past he reminded himself She left when you needed her. Bella's right I need to just forget the bitch and get on with the more pressing issues in life.

The hour hand at last struck the five making Edward jump right up taking his coat while almost making his chair fly backwards.
'In a hurry Mr Cullen?' Angela Victoria's secretary chuckled watching him as she sipped her coffee.
He smiled crookedly 'I have a date tonight that I need to get ready for.'
Angela raised an eyebrow 'Well then I guess you'll definitely be needing you coffee tomorrow morning.' She winked. It was then Edward noticed the Star Bucks label on her cardboard cup.

'You've been bringing me the coffee?' He blinked.
'Yeah, when I go to get mine in a morning. I thought it would be a nice gesture with everything you've been going through the past few months.'
'Thank you. It's been a great pick me up.' He spoke genuinely 'I'll see you in the morning Ang. Oh and stop calling me Mr Cullen just call me Edward.' He told her as he walked out of the door I've got to do something for her in return...flowers or something? He made a mental note to ask Bella later before gulping and getting into his car nervously Home we go...
