RECAP – Previous Chapter
"Isabella Marie, huh?" I said to myself. "Well, I think I prefer Isabella." I said as a few of the people stormed from the room.
What is going on here?
"Isabella it is then." The blonde man holding my hand said and i smiled back at him, and looked around to see who had fled the room. The bronze haired man, the pixie girl, and the blonde who i guess was named Jasper had all stormed out.
"What can i call you?" i asked the man holding my hand.
"You can call me Damion." he said with a smile.
"Damion." i repeated and smiled back.
DPOV - (Damion Point of View
Bella sat at my side on the couch, which is where she has been since she woke up. By my side. I looked down at her as her face turned up at mine and we exchanged a smile. I know that what I have done is unforgivable, but it beats having no Bella at my side at all. Her personality wasn't exactly the same but it's still her. The Cullen's are not exactly welcoming to me here, in fact they make it perfectly clear that I'm not welcome here. Though they seem to realize that Bella is quite attached to me, and would not stand for me being gone.
Rosalie, the blonde, seems very passive about the whole situation with Bella, though I had learned through observations that her relationship with Bella was never strong or much of anything at all. Her mate, whose name I believe is Emmett, is very cold towards me, and mourns as if Bella is dead, and feels as though he's lost a sister.
Jasper, the blonde male…he's not seen around much to my knowledge, though I've also learned that he can feel everyone's emotions around him, so this house is probably hell for him right now, especially when his mate is the causing him a lot of his pain. She's the worst of all of them. She hasn't left her room since that day, and she never talks to Bella, it's like she can't stand to be near her.
I felt a slight movement and I smiled as I noticed that Bella had laid her head on my shoulder. For being as dead as I was, being with Bella made me feel warm. Many times since her changing we are able to just sit here and say nothing, absolutely nothing, it's comforting.
Esme walked through the room and offered us both a small smile as she passes through which we returned. She has been the most…accepting of me here, though I know she's very indifferent to my presence. Her and her husband, Carlisle, they are very accepting people. They make no effort to go out of their way for me, though I never hear them speak ill of me, it's also very comforting.
Edward was another story. He was hell bent on making sure that Bella remembered him, and every second that he was able to pry her from my side he had her reliving moments from when she was human and they were together, and he would tell her stories, none of which would jog a memory, or any of which she would believe.
"Say, Damion, you said that I lost my memories of my human life, what was I like then?" she asked curiously looking up at me again. I looked down at her a little shocked, not once had she asked about her human life, and voluntarily wanted information about it, not with Edward spoon feeding it down her throat since her change.
I had only known Bella for a few days in her human life, and in all honestly, in my heart I knew that the Bella that I had met at that time wasn't the real and true Bella.
"Ah…what you used to be like…" I said slowly and as I was about to speak another person walked in. Edward.
"I don't really think your fit to answer that question, Damion." Edward half growled as he sat himself on a chair opposite us. Bella possessively wrapped her hands around my arm.
"Why isn't he?" She asked boldly.
"Well, in actuality, in your human life, he only knew you for a part of it, say…less than a week." Edward replied calmly. Bella looked a little taken aback then looked up at me.
"Is that true?" she asked then without waiting for a reply looked back at Edward. "How do you know that?" she asked.
"Because, Bella-" he was cut off.
"Isabella." She corrected.
"Isabella, I knew you for almost two years, and…you never once liked being called Isabella…you preferred Bella." He spouted out randomly and I looked at him a little shocked at first then let the emotion pass over my face and it was gone.
"Well, people's tastes change…" I said cutting him off and looked down at Bella.
"You never answered me Damion, did I really only know you for less than a week?" she asked.
I looked down at her and I sighed. I couldn't lie to her, so I nodded and looked away. "That's it!" She declared, and I looked back at her shocked.
"Huh?" I asked shocked looking over at Edward who was just as confused.
"My human life is over, dead, gone, in the dust. I don't care if I only knew you for 43 seconds before I was changed! You are important to me Damion, and nothing will change that, ever." She promised squeezing my hand in hers and I smiled. Edward's lip twitched into a scowl that I knew was directed towards me and I smiled back politely.
"Honestly, Isabella, I did only know you a short few days before your change." I laughed humorlessly. "Beg my pardon for saying this, but, my behavior those few days its rather embarrassing, so I have slightly okay feelings with you not recalling it." I said patting her hand.
She sighed and stood up gracefully. "I think I need to hunt." She said calmly looking about the room. I stood up as well and took her hand, which she hesitantly slid out of mine. 'I am sorry Damion, I think I need to speak to Edward on a more serious note right now.' She said smiling at me. "We'll talk when I get back." She said, then she looked at Edward. "If you wish to accompany me, that is.' She said
Edward seemed as though he couldn't muster the words and only managed a small nod. She smiled and squeezed my hand and preceded to walk out the front door, followed by Edward.
The whole situation put a bad taste in my mouth, I didn't want her going and I knew nothing good was going to come of it. Though I trust her. I sighed as I sat back down on the couch and waited. It seemed I was getting good at that where Isabella was concerned.
