THE FIGHT- CHAPTER 2

BELLA'S POV

I woke up and winced at the pain in my arm. I had fallen asleep with my arm behind my back, lying on it. Ouch. I rubbed my eyes and winced at the pain once more before shaking it off. Glancing at the ceiling, all the memories of last night came back to haunt me. I hit my head with my palm, sitting up. What was I thinking? I was rude, mean, and even tortured Edward with my crying. "Stupid, stupid!" I murmured to myself and looked around the room, expecting to see Edward with open arms, ready to forgive and forget. No Edward. Hmph. Interesting. I crawled out of my bed and threw on my light blue fuzzy robe. Edward bought it for me. I opened the door to my room and walked down the hallway.

Against the wall of the hallway was a note. At first I expected it to be Edward's note, telling me he went out hunting, but I noticed Charlie's sloppy handwriting. I sighed, disappointed, and peeled the tape of the wall, letting the note fall into my open hand. I looked at the piece of paper and was a little scared to read it. What would Charlie need to be telling me? I shrugged it off and looked down at the words.
Bella,
Good morning sweetheart. I just wanted to tell you I had to take off for work early this morning. I'll be home around 9:00. Please leave me a note if you are going out. I worry. And don't worry about ME. I can make my own food for once. Also, lastly, Edward called. He said that he wanted to meet you in the forest beside the Cullen house. Be careful. I love you.
Dad

I sighed and crumpled up the note and looked at the clock. 9:00 am. Wow. I hope Edward didn't expect me early. Surprisingly, I rushed into the bedroom to get dressed. Edward owed me an apology, and I owed him one, too.

I finally walked out of my house around 10:00 and stepped into my red truck. The sun glared through the front window as I turned on the car. Before I left my driveway, I made the final adjustments. Seatbelt on, sunglasses on, window rolled down, and my special CD that Edward made me playing loudly in the car. I could hear the piano play, and if I listened carefully enough, I could hear him occasionally draw in a breath. This is exactly what I liked to hear. And he knew it. I pushed my foot on the gas and carefully pulled out of the drive. By the time I hit the road, I was already humming along to my favorite part. My favorite part was the chorus of the song. I had made up my own lyrics to it in which I though fit the tune and message of the song. I sucked in some air and started to quietly sing the lyrics I made:

"And so the sun sets so carefully, so quietly, so peacefully.
We dance and sing so carefully, so quietly, so peacefully.
And the world, well nothing seems to exist when we are together
and you know I could stay like this forever
because nothing even matters anymore
when I'm with you, and only you..."

I held out the last note and let it drop when Edward hit the next key. This song was like my heaven, if I didn't have Edward. I had been meaning to talk to Edward and see if he could take my lyrics and actually make a complete list of lyrics to the song and maybe record and sing it for me. But I couldn't think of that right now. I pulled into a little patch of dirt beside the forest next to the Cullen house and stepped out of the car, still humming.

" Bella? Bella?" I heard an urgent voice call out. It almost sounded like what my mom would say, but in Edward's all too perfect voice. I nearly fainted at the sound, but I was so excited and nervous to see him, I moved forward. "Edward, I'm coming," I called out. I ran, but soon realized I had no clue where I was running. "Edward? Where are you?" I yelled. "Right here," I heard a smooth voice whisper. I spun around to see Edward's tall, slim body towering over me. "I'm sorry," I blurted out and began to cry, pulling myself against his chest.

Edward stroked my hair out of my face. "Sorry for what, love?" he asked me. "I'm sorry for kissing Mike. I'm sorry for yelling at you. I'm sorry for fighting with you. I'm sorry for crying so loud last night. I'm sorry for kicking you out. I'm sorry for-"Edward raised a finger to my trembling lip. I glanced up and saw Edward smile. "You silly, silly, silly girl!" Edward exclaimed, laughing. I frowned and pushed away. Edward pushed me back towards him and whispered quietly, "I was the rude one. I should have dropped it. And, also, I didn't leave your house until 5am. I was listening to you sleep to calm me down, and I also wanted to see if you would awake". I sighed and kissed Edward's head. "I love you," I whispered. "I love you too," he whispered back and we kissed with enough passion to make the whole city explode.

The End
