Chapter 6: Stupid, Interrupting Vampire

BPOV

I woke up and looked at my clock. The red numbers shouted 3:47 am. to my unsuspecting eyes. I felt oddly comfortable. It felt like when Edward had stayed with me at night before he left. What a dirty trick for my mind to play. I decided to try and go back to sleep, especially since I didn't have school, finally.

When I woke up again, I felt empty. It was ten something now, or at least that's what the clock said. I turned over to see there was no one beside me. Knew it had been too good to be true. I sighed and tried to hold back my lonely tears. I just wish that dream had been real.

I had been at graduation and I saw him. He brought me home and laid with me when I felt sick and sad and told me he'd never leave me again. My thoughts were going to be the end of me.

I sat up and pulled the covers off, but the voice that spoke up nearly scared me half to death.

“I see you're awake now.” the voice said from the dark corner of my room.

I walked over to it, curiously. There sat Edward, in my old rocking chair, just like he always used to do. It hadn't been a dream. He was really back. Either that, or I was horribly delusional. I quickly threw out that option knowing my mind would not do him the justice that I was seeing in him right now. He was perfect as always.

At first I was dazed by the revelation of him being alive and back, but then I grew confused, sad, and somewhat angry. Why did he leave me? What was that fire about? How could he have hurt me so much and expect me to take him back so easily? Well, that last one didn't count. I would've taken him back even if he had grown a second head and could only walk backwards.

“I know. I need to explain everything.” he said in a soothing voice, as he gestured for me to sit on his lap.
