The halls of Forks High hadn’t been this full of whispers in a long time. Even the faculty was at a loss as the Cullen family seemed to reappear out of no where after their disappearance. Bella Swan paid no attention to the rumors, not until she walked into the cafeteria briefly hearing the conversation between Lauren Mallory and Jessica Stanley.
“They’re back!”
“Well, with one missing.” Lauren snapped seemingly irritated by the absence of one. “Now that he’s fair ga-“
“You really think that he’s going to give the rest of us a shot now?”
The two gossips failed to notice the expression of amusement on Rosalie Hale’s face as she held onto her husband’s arm.
No, the two girls couldn’t be farther off of the mark.
“You know this is my entire fault Emmett,” Rose spoke in whispers and Emmett shook his head. “All you did was make a phone call Rosie, granted it might not have been the best idea but none of us could have counted on Edward’s reaction to it, we hadn’t seen him in months.”
The Cullens were most definitely back and it wasn’t with good laughs and stories. No, Alice had gotten a vision of Bella jumping off of a cliff (well, the vision kept changing as if Bella couldn’t make her mind) and then her vision just went blank. Unsure of what to do Alice had told her family and in a desperate attempt to save her family and her brother, Rosalie called Edward.
She hadn’t expected him to hang up the phone.
Alice hadn’t expected Edward to go to Italy.
And Jasper and Emmett had never expected that they would have to travel to Italy and grab his brother before he could do something as stupid as commit suicide while Carlisle and the girls tried to calm down a frantic Esme.
…
“Bella, please just come speak with us for a moment.” Alice Cullen had a grip of Bella’s hand before the silent brunette could protest and was dragging her over to the table. The five of them sat in silence before Rosalie finally spoke up. “Bella, I have something to apologize for…It’s not the beginning of all of this, but I want you to know how sorry I am.”
Bella Swan stared wide eyed at the Cullen family as they began to clear up things that she couldn't even begin to imagine.
