Bella:
Once I'm in Rose and Emmett's apart, I remember the dreaded message Edward never got round to giving me.
"Oh, Bella, that's not important right now, sweetheart," Rose coos, hugging me tightly. I only start bawling harder though when she calls me sweetheart. Edward called me sweetheart. Well, he used to.
"Please, I want to know. It'll take my mind off things," I sob, wiping my eyes and sitting down on the sofa. Emmett sits next to me, both of us eating the ice-cream. Rose rolls her eyes at the both of us.
"Ok, well, we have news," Rose begins, beaming. "Emmett proposed!" Rose exclaims, holding out her left hand for me to inspect.
"Wow, that's amazing!" I grin, feeling a lot happier.
She begins gushing over all the wedding planning she's already done, excitedly speaking quickly. Emmett just nods in agreement, the love evident in his eyes.
"There's a reason I had an urgent message for you, Bella," Rose says, her tone becoming serious. Oh god, what? "Will you be my maid of honour?" Rose squeals loudly.
"Oh my god of course!" I jump up and hug Rose, squeezing her tightly.
For the rest of the evening, Rose orders two pizzas for us as we just watch films on TV. I try to forget about Edward and my argument with him, but I can't. My stomach clenches just thinking about him. I feel pathetic for missing him when he clearly doesn't miss me. I haven't received a single text or call from him. Not that I expected anything.
That night, I stay in Emmett and Rose's guest bedroom. I can't face returning to my empty apartment, yet.
It takes a while before I fall asleep, long after midnight. I've got used to having Edward's comforting arms around me. In the end, I tire myself out from crying and feeling pathetic.
After throwing up the next morning, I brush my teeth and head into the kitchen where I can smell breakfast being made.
"How are you feeling, Bella?" Rose asks. I just shrug, still feeling miserable.
"Sorry for being so depressed," I mumble in apology.
"You're allowed to be," Rose smiles at me.
Breakfast is fairly quiet, Emmett and Rose talking while I sit there, not really eating. Suddenly, we hear a pounding on the door across the way. My door.
My heart soars in hope that it's Edward, here to make me happy again. I run to the front door and wrench it open, stupidly not looking through the peephole.
Because, there, standing in front of my door, is Jessica Stanley.
A/N: What do you think of Jessica's arrival? And Rose and Emmett's news? :O
Review please! :) Can we reach 500 reviews with this chapter? That'd be so extremely awesome :D
