Edwards POV
I hopped out of her window, if I could cry, I would be crying a river right now. The wind was flowing in my hair, the cold breeze caressing my face. I didn't want to explain this to Charlisle, for once I don't know what to do. I was standing near the lake wondering what to do. I don't think I will ever forget her; she was my first love. I thought I would be with her forever. I guess she got scared of me…. I could hear footsteps coming towards me.
"Bella?"
A cold voice spoke, it sounded a bit like Bella, maybe she got a cold?
"I am back Edward. But I don't love you. I never did. I never will. You are the biggest monster I ever met. Nobody will ever love you!"
She laughed like a maniac. Did she really think that of me?
"But Bella? I thought we were meant for each other. I thought you loved me, for who I was?"
"Loved you?" She scoffed "I just wanted to play with someone's feelings. You were the best target."
The corner of my mouth turned downwards. I was in disbelief; after spending so much time together, she chose to end it like this.
"Do what you want to, just keep yourself safe."
I waited for a while, I got no answer. I grabbed what I thought was her shoulder.
"Bella!"
Did she just run off? Or was she never here?
"Bella?"
I can't be here anymore. I can't live without my Bella, or she's not mine at the moment. We live in the 21st century, so I also can't just marry her because of my status. I guess I don't have a choice other than ending myself… But who could do it for me?
"I got it!"
I can go to Italy and create havoc again. No. They would probably find out. I figure something out when I am there, maybe pleading them will be enough? I ran to the airport, I bribed the air hostess to seat me in the next flight to Italy, and there I was, in the airplane, awaiting my death.
*In Italy*
It was dawn, nobody was outside. But I still can't run to the Volturis, it will be obvious for any human to identify me. I broke into a yellow Porsche, I never thought I would do this, but here I was. I didn't bother parking the car, I just ran out of it right into their house, or "museum". I was at desk where their new "prey" was. She looked a little too pale to be a human, but so was Bella. I can't just assume things, everything reminded me of Bella anyways. I was running with all my might towards Aro. I barged into the room
"Aro, we need to speak. Now."
I looked at him with pleading eyes, and he nodded with a kind smile, he excused himself and came out to the hallway.
"Hello Edward. I wasn't expecting you, how is Charlisle?"
I tried not to think of what happened recently, I just replied quickly
"He is doing fine, I actually came because I want to-" I had to sink the lump in my throat to speak properly.
-"I want to die. Before you ask any questions, I just can't be a vampire anymore"
That was the lamest excuse I ever heard!
"Is that so?" Aro asked looking at me with eyes full of questions that had to be answered. I can't answer them, that would put Bella in great danger. I looked him in the eyes seriously, I contemplated if I should tell him everything. No. I can't.
"I turned Bella into a vampire and now miss being a human very badly. I am no longer around humans, and Bella was the only one closest to me, now that she also is turned, I can't live through her eyes."
Aro looked at me with a surprised face, looking at my face, as if he was scannning it.
"Are you sure Edward? It would be such a waste of potential… You are just throwing your great powers away? You could use them here. And you will also see plenty of humans. You can become a body/security guard for us."
"No!"
I realized what great trouble I could put my family through if I was so impolite. I fell down on my knees.
"I beg you Aro! Please… Kill me already! End it all."
I looked at him with eagerness I have never felt before. He looked dissatisfied.
"Edward. Son. Don't do this. You will either do this by choice or by force."
What did he mean "by force"? Was Aro going to force me into this! I shouldn't have come here. I looked at Aro while pondering in my own thoughts. I could have ended myself, why did I come here? Maybe that's what Aro realized…
"We could really train you, and we will order your vegetarian meals for you. We could train you in combat and much more. If I was you I would accept the offer."
He smiled his smug kind smile again, this time with more meaning behind it. I had no choice in this, it's better than going back to her.
"Alright. But I will have to make a call with Charlisle, so they know where I am and that I won't come back."
He looked at me with more confusion
"Did you come here without telling them?"
I instantly regret saying that, my face became tense and so did my body.
"Yes. Aro I am not a child"
He began laughing
"Well you are soon going to be a teen again! You're almost 108 years old!"
At least he wasn't threatening me anymore. I quickly said
"Well I have to make a phone call"
I ran to the front desk and ran Charlisle's number up
"Sir, you can't just take the phone- I was having an important conversation."
I didn't even bother looking up.
"EXUSE ME SIR"
I guess I had to shut her up on my own. I made her sit down and taped her mouth shut, I didn't have time for this.
*muffled sounds*
"Edward. Where are you?"
Why was that the first question! Why not 'are you okay Edward?' or 'Are you safe?'.
"I am at the Volturi's. I couldn't live without Bella, but Aro talked me into sanity, I am now a bodyguard here. I will make phone calls though. Bye."
I ended the phone call. As long as they knew where I was it's fine. I just realized I didn't take the tape of the lady at the desk. Oops.
"Sorry for the delay" I grinned without feeling much happiness, just a feeling of relief that I won't think much of her or see her again. I looked at the lady thoroughly. She didn't look human at all.
"Exuse me, but what are you?"
She rolled her eyes as I took the tape off.
"A girl, duh!" She laughed "No I am also a vampire"
I felt more at ease with one of our kinds.
"What are you then doing here? They usually eat the ones at the desk first!"
We talked for a while and I made my first friend here.
