Just a Little Mental

Going Home

           Here I am sitting on the plain white bed that I have come to love in the past three years of being in this institute. I look besides me at the picture of my family before the accident. "Aria, dear are you ready to leave?" Miss Gorge asks. I've always liked her she let me be, never pushed me to tell her things. "Aria." "Huh? Oh yeah. I'm ready" I say a small smile on my face. I get up off the bed and take one last glance at the room before walking out. "Your sisters here with a friend." "mhm." I mumble looking all around. "She's really excited to see you again." I look over at miss Gorge and frown. "She hasn't seen me in three years." I say. "Well you know you weren't allowed any visitors." She says. "Yeah." "Come on lets go." I perk up and skip along behind her. We get to the end of the hall where the door of my freedom lays closed. "Are you ready?" Slowly I hesitantly nod my head. She takes out her key card and scans it on the door before pushing it open. I take a step out looking around in awe before my blue eyes meet my sisters warm chocolate brown ones. "Bella!" I yell out running into her embrace. "Hi Ari, it;s nice to see you." She says squeezing me before releasing and looking me over. "You've grown so much." She states. "Yeah." I say. I look next to her just now noticing the boy. "Oh um hi, I'm Aria." I stutter out holding out a shaky hand. "Hello Aria I've heard a lot about you." The boy says grabbing my small hand in his large and cold? hand. "Wow you sure are cold, oh well I had a friend who you remind me of." I say offering a smile. He returns it before shooting my sister a look that says 'We'll talk about this later.' "So..." "Oh I'm Edward." I let out a giggle. "So Edward are you my sisters boyfriend?" I ask tilting my head slightly. In the corner of my eye I see my sisters pale face grow red. "Yeah, I am." He says grabbing my sisters waist and pulling her close. "Awe." I say looking at the two of them. "A-alright lets go dad's excited to see you again." My eyes go wide and a smile breaks out across my face. "Really I miss him so much!" I rush out before running out the door. I hear laughter from inside but become to focused on the clouds and trees that I am currently faced with. Suddenly little droplets of rain starts falling down hitting my face. Smiling I walk out more and look up at the sky allowing the rain to hit my skin. "Ari! What're you doing?" I hear my sister ask. "I've missed this, it's been so long." I say spinning around, my dress getting soaked. "Ari! come on we need to leave!" Bella calls out. Smiling I run up to where the two are waiting and get in the car. "You must be cold, what were you doing?" Bella says nagging. "Bella it's been three years since I've seen the outside I was enjoying the weather." I say calmly. "Just please be careful." She says her eyes soft and voice quiet. "Yeah okay." I say. "Oh yeah before I forget guess what you get to have again?" Bella asks. I think hard before remembering. "My ring and locket." I whisper. "Yep here you go." She says handing me the two things that I have waited to see again "What's so special about the ring and locket?" Edward asks as we stop at the red light. "You'll see." Bella answers watching as I hook the locket to my neck and place the ring on my finger. "What do you-" Before he could finish my locket lights up the same with the ring. "Wow." He says staring at the jewelry in confusion and awe. "Battery?" "No it's hook specifically to me as long as I am alive it will stay lite." I say staring at the locket with content. "That's really amazing." He says turning his attention back on the road.

After about an hour and a half we finally reach the little old house that I lived in when I was young. "Hasn't changed a bit." I say in awe. "Nope and your room is the same except for some exceptions." Bella says helping me out. I grab my bag slinging it over my shoulder before tracking my way into the house. Once inside I taking in my surroundings. "Come on I'll show you your room." I follow Bella upstairs and down the hall. We stop at a light blue door. Slowly I open the door revealing my room. I let out a giggle and jump onto my queen size bed. "Do you like it?" "I love it. thank you." "Don't thank me you'll have to thank Alice, Edwards sister." "Okay." "I'm gonna let you settle in, dad should be home soon for dinner." Bella says walking out the door. "Wait!" Bella turns and looks at me curiously. "I missed you a lot." I say looking down at my hands. "I missed you too, now get unpacked and come downstairs." She says taking her leave. I let out a sigh before starting to unpack.

About an hour later I lay down on the floor exhausted. "Aria! Dads home!" I spring to my feet and run out of my room down the stairs and throw myself at dad who gladly catches me in his arms. See while Bella was closer to mom I was closer to dad, I guess you could say I'm a huge daddy's girl. "Hi baby girl." He whispers holding me to him. "Hi daddy." I cry out. After out little reunion we brake apart and look towards an awkward Bella. "Uh dinners done." She says walking back in the kitchen slowly. Smiling I skip after her. Once at the table I let out a gasp. "Is that lasagna and garlic bread?" I ask. "Yep. it's a little welcome home dinner." Bella says. I let out a squeal and sit down staring at the food. "Can I eat some?" I ask. "Yeah." Bella says letting out a small laugh. licking my lips I take a large piece of lasagna and two pieces of garlic bread. "Isn't that a little too much?" Dad asks. I just shake my head and start on my food.

After dinner I help Bella clean up. "Where do you put it?" She asks looking at my petite figure. "Eh boobs." I say looking down at my huge chest. "Yeah." She says looking at them also. "Welp i'm done. I'm going to go to sleep now." I kiss her cheek and walk out of the room. "we're going to Edwards house tomorrow!" "Okay!" I walk up the stairs after kissing dad goodnight and walk to my room. "I've really missed this place." I mumble getting into my bed and falling asleep.
