Can't Let Go

~ I ~

EPOV

It was after dark when I finally passed into the boundaries of Forks, Washington. I was going home after being away at college for a year. I was remembering the last time I came home; it was Christmas and I met the most beautiful angel I had ever seen. She really was like an angel. Bella was beautiful, smart, funny and incredibly clumsy. I spent most of the time over those days with her; I even perked up the courage to kiss her on my last night there. Just like when we kissed; I heard a phone ring near me. It wasn't Bella's this time, my phone kept ringing; snapping me out of my thoughts of the sweet angel I longed to see again.

I checked the caller ID. "Hey Emmett, what's up? I'm about five minutes away, just passed into Forks."

"Dude, hey. Look you need to hang back a bit. We have sort of a situation. Something's happened. Bella is moving in with us and we have to protect her. She just got here so give it an hour before you come home so she isn't freaked out more than she already is ok." Emmett rushed into the phone I only caught half of what he said. Something about Bella moving in? Could my luck really be that good? Wait why would she be moving in with us? Didn't she have a boyfriend?

"Um. Sure Emmett. Is she ok? Wait, why is she moving in with us? What happened?" I asked confused and slightly worried.

"Dude, no time to explain. I got to go, but just hang back for a while ok." Emmett ordered. "We'll explain when you get here later." He said, hanging up before I could respond.

"Well that was weird." I muttered to myself. What the hell am I going to do for an hour? I knew the answer as soon as I though of it. I sped off towards the path that led to the secluded meadow I had found so many years ago.

It didn't take me long to find the hidden place. I remember when I first found the meadow before me. I was so angry at Emmett over something and had stormed off trying to calm down before I broke some of my mothers furniture. I didn't know exactly where I was going, I had been walking around in the forest for hours when I came across the beautiful meadow. Ever since that day, I would always come here if I needed to get away and be alone with my thoughts for a while.

I thought the meadow was beautiful during the day; it was even more breathtaking at night. I stayed in my own little place away from the world for well over an hour, just thinking about what Emmett had said about how we have to protect Bella. What did she need to be protected from? What was going on? What had happened to her that led to her moving in with us? Was she ok? I hated not knowing.

After I first met Bella, I couldn't get her out of my head. I don't know how to explain it; I just felt a connection, a sort of pull towards her. I even tried to get her out my head by getting with the campus slut Tanya. That was a huge failure. She was so clingy I didn't even like her like that, and she couldn't even get me up. I only had one girl in mind that I wanted and I couldn't wait 'til I would hopefully see her again.

I couldn't take it anymore; I had to know what was going on. I jumped up from where I was lying down and rand through the forest back to my car. As soon as I was in, I sped away towards home. I stopped just in front of the steps and bolted into the manor, leaving my bags.

"Edward." Esme; my mother, sighed.

"Mum. What. What happened? What's wrong with Bella? Why is she moving in with us?" I stammered out.

"It's more her place to say." Carlisle; my father, said. "But she's moving in with us because she left her boyfriend James and needs a place to live. Edward, James was abusive with Bella." He told me.

I was too shocked at first to respond. How could anyone hurt this angel? How dare he!

"She's very fragile and vulnerable right now. I know you have feelings for her Edward, but just be careful with her. She's just come out of an abusive relationship. Be there for her, support her and give her time." Carlisle told me seriously. It's good to have you home son."

"Yeah, I'm not leaving for that long again any time soon." I laughed slightly.

"Good. That means you get to help with the wedding and everything." I heard Rosalie; my brothers fiancée, say coming down the stairs. "Welcome home by the way. We were planning a dinner for you but we had a situation so yeah. Everyone is in bed now but we'll go out tomorrow for lunch while Bella's at the hospital with Carlisle yeah." She said giving me a quick hug before heading off towards the kitchen.

"I'm just going to go grab my bags and head up to bed. It was a long trip." I said.

"Ok Edward. Check on Bella when you get up there." Esme said.

"Sure thing mum. Night." I told her heading back out to the car.

"Be careful with her Edward." Carlisle said when I walked back in with my bags. He walked off as I continued up the stairs.

My room was on the third floor and had a conjoining bathroom with the spare; well now Bella's room. I dumped my bags in my room and chucked on just a pair of trackies. Just as I went to get into bed, I heard someone scream out.

Bella.

"Shit!" I swore. I forgot to check on her when I came up.

I ran into her room and there she was; still beautiful like I remember but her face was full of pain and she screamed out again.

I didn't think as she kept screaming, I just got in the bed and held her close to me. She woke up and screamed even louder.

"Shh. Bell, shh. It's ok. You're safe. I'm here." I told her, rubbing her back a she sobbed clinging onto my chest.

"Edward." Bella sighed.

She remembered me. "Shh. I'm here." I told her.

Sta.. Stay." She sobbed.

"I'm not going anywhere." I told her as she started to calm down. I kissed her hair and forehead softly as she drifted off back to sleep.

"Edward." Bella breathed in her sleep. She curled in closer to me. I kissed her forehead again and held her close as I fell asleep with my Bella safely in my arms.
