Charlie and I sat there in silence, thinking about mom. It's been a long time since she died but right now, it actually feels like she died just yesterday. I guess none of us actually healed from the loss. Even though she died when I was so little, I could remember that mom was always smiling, laughing. Nothing could bring her down.
The silence was getting awkward, so I decided to break it.
"D-Dad? Why have we stopped talking?" I asked him, looking up at his brown eyes. He looked away, trembling.
"I don't know... I guess it's because you reminded me of her. You had her smile and laugh, it made me... Feel like she died just a moment before. I couldn't take it. You also look like her; you had the same eye color. Well, she had gold and green eyes; you got the brown from me. I don't know where you got the blue though. And before she died her hair that brown color, she had pitch black hair," Charlie murmured.
So, I reminded Charlie of mom, and he stopped talking to me because it would hurt him more... Bullshit! What about me? I needed my dad there to help me, to support us through the hard years. I needed my father there and he wouldn't talk to me because I reminded him of my mother!
I glared at Charlie and he winced.
"I needed you. And you wouldn't talk to me, you wouldn't look at me, and you wouldn't comfort me all because I had a resemblance to Mom?" I hissed, standing up. My fists were clenched by my sides as I glared at Charlie.
"I-I-I..." he tried to reply but I didn't stay to listen. Instead, I ran out of the house and into the forest, which has always been my home. I went along a trail, anger fueling my pace, making me keep going. I came across a river and followed it, walking along the bank.
The river was calming and soon I was singing quietly to myself, hands in my pockets.
Hey, Dad, look at me
Think back, and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
And do you think I'm wasting my time
Doing things I want to do?
But it hurts when you disapproved all along
And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for
You can't pretend that I'm alright
And you can't change me
I looked at my feet and sang quietly, shaking my head. My voice broke slightly, but then repaired itself as soon as I finished singing the chorus.
[Chorus]
'Cause we lost it all
Nothin' lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
And we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore
And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's all right
Lifting my face up to the sky, soft rain drops pelted down my face, making it look like I was crying. Thankfully the rain wasn't bad, or I would've been drenched.
'Cause we lost it all
And nothin' lasts forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late
And we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Nothing's gonna change the things that you said
And nothing's gonna make this right again
Please don't turn your back
I can't believe it's hard just to talk to you
But you don't understand
[Chorus: x2]
My voice quieted down at the end, becoming just a whisper. I looked around wondering where I was. The river was still flowing beside me but I didn't recognize any of my surroundings.
I sighed and sat on a boulder, my blue bangs falling into my eyes. Brushing them away, I noticed that my dark purple nails were chipping and groaned. I dragged my fingers over my tattoo on my left wrist and smiled. Standing back up, I continued walking.
I felt a pull coming from the left and looked over, noticing a familiar white house. Edward. I smiled, and then frowned, keeping a neutral face. He probably doesn't want to see me right now, but I'll go and check if he wants to hang out. I walked towards his house and took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Esme opened the door and a small smile showed onto her face.
"Oh hello Bella, I didn't get to ask you how your trip was, you left so suddenly earlier," she greeted softly. I nodded and looked down.
"Yeah it was nice. Thanks for asking. Um, is Edward okay with some company?" I asked.
"Oh sorry dear, he and Carlisle just went out for something," Esme replied looking behind her.
"Oh. Then I guess I'll be going then," I whispered, turning back and walked into the forest. I heard the doors close behind Esme, and then with my sensitive hearing, I heard someone speak. It was too deep to be Esme, and velvety.
"Thanks Mom, I didn't want to be around her," the voice said in relief, the voice of Edward. I stopped and tilted my head towards the voices.
"I don't know why you hung out with her in the first place. She looks like a damned freak," another voice sneered out, I recognized it as Rosalie.
"Honestly Edward, everyone knows that she's so weird," a deeper, more masculine voice put in, Emmett.
"Children that's enough," a softer, motherly voice cut in, Esme. I looked down and ran into the forest, but not before hearing Edward's last words.
"Yeah I know she's weird, but I felt sorry for her. I even lied to myself and her saying how much I loved her and shit," Edward laughed. That hurt, that killed me.
Disappearing into the forest, I got out my phone and called my uncle. I got him to have me graduate early, like now. He sent my diploma to the house and I hurried over, gathered somethings and got into one of my many cars, and drove off.
I called Travis and he agreed to put off my career for a while, to let me travel a bit. I sped out of town and wasn't paying attention to where I was going. I didn't notice the eighteen wheeler until it was too late.
It crashed into the side of my car and I heard a scream. Blood was everywhere and my head cracked against the steering wheel. The last thought I had before I blacked out was one thing.
Finally, relief.
CPOV (Carlisle)
I knew when my son lies, and he lied to his siblings about the girl, named Bella Swan. They were talking trash about her when he came home and Edward, well; he never was accepted by his brothers and sisters, even by Alice. So he tries so much to be accepted by them, even if he has to lie about not loving the girl who obviously has his heart.
I looked out the window and saw a young woman running, her hair black with green and skull extensions, red tips, and neon blue bangs. She was dressed in dark clothing. That must've been Bella. And from the looks of it, she heard everything.
Looking down, I was filled with disappointment. My children hurt the woman running and she probably heard Edward's lies. I stayed in my office. I was then called.
"Hello?" I answered, holding the phone to my ear setting down my pencil. Today was my day off and they only called me if there was a dire emergency.
"Dr. Cullen, hurry! There's been an eighteen wheeler accident, it rammed into the side of a car, and a young woman is close to death. We need you down here NOW!" That was all that was said before the person on the other end hung up, but I could hear the commotion in the background.
Grabbing my bag, I ran downstairs, everyone already there. They stared at me, but I paid no mind, I had to get to the hospital!
"Honey, what's wrong? Where are you going?" Esme asked. I turned to look at her, but for only a second.
"There's been a car accident, eighteen wheeler involved, and young girl dying. I got to go!" I yelled behind me, getting in my car and speeding off as quick as possible to the hospital. I didn't notice the others getting into their own cars and following me.
After parking, I wasted no time running towards the ambulance that had arrived a minute after I did. The stretcher was unloaded from the back and my eyes widened when I noticed neon blue bangs through the blood.
"BELLA!"
ChPOV (Charlie)
I sat there, thinking after Bella ran out. I must have fallen asleep because I was being woken up by the phone. Grumbling under my breath, I answered.
"Hello?" I mumbled.
"Mr. Swan, you need to come to the hospital, your daughter, Isabella Swan, has been involved in an accident," the person on the other end replied, speaking urgently.
"WHAT?" I shouted. I dropped the phone and ran to my car and drove to the hospital. Not again, please don't take my daughter the way they took my wife and mother of my child.
I arrived and ran in, only to be stopped by another doctor. "My daughter! Let me through I need to see my daughter!"
"Sir they are in surgery, she was rushed in as soon as she got here," a doctor said calmly. I thrashed trying to get through until I was sedated.
"No..."
Well there is the end of the chapter. What will happen?
