AN: Thanks to Arabella Whitlock, who has been and is a great help to this story. Thank you so much! Oh, and the POVS are now gonna be bold so they're easier to follow. Bye!
Jasper POV
"No need to be hostile," Emmett said on the other end of the line. "This is important. Apparently, both of Bella's parents are dead, and Phil got arrested."
"What? So Charlie's not out of town?" "Oh he is. In fact, he's out of world!" I sighed. "Emmett, not the time." "Right. Sorry. Anyway... they died a few weeks after Edward left. Just thought you should know." "Yeah, but how do you know?" I asked. "The obituaries were sitting out here," Emmet said.
"Oh. Hang on Alice is calling." "Hey babe." "Hey. Come home for a quick family meeting ASAP please. Love you!" And she was gone. ALright then. "Emmett? We're supposed to go have a family meeting ASAP." "Right. See you there," Emmett said. I snapped the phone shut and got back in my car.
Edward POV
I paced the living room while we waited for Jasper. Emmett had gone here a few minutes ago. I paced, my family glared. At me, that is. Maybe I should have told them the truth. "What you should have done was stay with Bella," said Jasper, entering the room. "You should stop feeling guilty for lying to us and start feeling guilty for hurting the girl you claim to love." I sighed. "What's done is done. And so is this family meeting. I'm going to Portland. This my fault, I'll deal with it," I said, heading torwards the door.
Deal with it? Is that all she is to him? A problem to deal with? Emmett
Thought he loved her. Jasper
I thought we raised him better than this. Esme
I don't even like her that much, and I feel bad for her. Rose
I can't believe he hurt my best friend! Alice
I can't believe Edward would lie like that. Carlisle
I couldn't take any more. I left, not bothering to take a car. I ran all the way to the Portland Mcdonald's that Bella was at. I burst through the door, scanning the tables for Bella. I finally saw her sitting in a corner by herself. "Bella-" That was as far as I got before she stood up and walked outside. "Bella wait!" I ran to her bike and grabbed the handle bars. "Bella, listen. Please." "No, you listen! I can't believe you could lie to me and your own family like that! Is that all you do is lie? 'They don't want to make this any harder'. ' I love you'. Is there anything you don't lie about?" Bella shouted.
"Bella, I wasn't lying when I said I loved you. I do! And I lied about leaving because I wanted to make it easier for you. I was just rying to help!" I pleaded with her, desperate. She shook her head. "You don't love me. I may be your singer, but I'm clearly not your mate. Love doesn't lie, no matter what. Love doesn't say words that leave unhealable wounds. I don't know what you call this, but it isn't love. And I'm done with it." She mounted the bike and started it. "Bella please! Please stay here!" I could've made her, but I didn't want to keep her against her will. Besides, the others would free her. Bella glared at me, and pulled away. As she drove, I realized she'd left her helmet behind. I picked it up, and inhaled. I will miss her. I know she won't come back, at least not to me. But I will keep trying, keep begging for her forgiveness. I ran back home, knowing my family was going to be devastated and angry when I told them she was gone.
Bella POV
I drove fast, desperate to get as far away as possible from Edward. It had started raining, and the water combined with my tears made it almost imposible to see. I slowed down and stuck to the side of the road. Then I heard a horn honking urgently and the squeal of tires, many, sliding out of control. I saw the semi come out of nowhere, and all was dark.
Garrett POV
I was in the middle of a hunt when I felt it. A pull that could only man one thing. My true mate was near. I ran torward the pull, and as I got closer, I smelled blood. Lucky for me I was full. Don't want to steal my mates meal. I ran to the side of a highway. A wreck had just occured, but I didn't see any vampires nearby. The pull was drawing torwards a semi that was flipped on its side. When I walked to the other side, I thought I was going to be sick. My subconsious thought ' nobody said my mate was the meal. Then I went back to being sick. A beautiful girl lay lifeles on the pavement. The semi was on top of her lower half, a bike tire on one of her arms. She lay in a puddle of blood. I had to save her.
I moved the bike first. Then, slowly so it wasn't noticeable, I lifted the semi. With my free hand I pushed her out from underneath it. I scoped her up and looked around. Everyone was on the other side of the semi. Idiots. Then I ran. As soon as I got her away enough that no one could hear her, I bit her wrist. I stopped quickly, so as not to kill her. Time to take her home, and wait for three days for my love to come to life.
