Loved, Left, Lost, and Loved Again

The Silent Treatment (Part 2)

(Back to Bella's POV)

I hurried back into the school, leaving Edward in the parking lot. I just don't get it. What makes Edward think that he can go

around kissing me where ever, and whenever he wants. If I wasn't angry before, well now I was. I am a grown woman. Why does my life seem like I'm in the middle of a teenage high school soap opera.

I guess my mood must've been written all over my face or something, because as I walked down the hallway to my next class some of the students had frightened looks upon their faces. Good.

I found Jasper walking shockingly by himself in the opposite direction as I was. The reason why I'm shocked is because he is usually with Alice at all times of the day. He had a worried look on his face as he slowly approached me, stopping me in the middle of the hallway.

"Bella, what's wrong?" Jasper kindly asked, placing a hand on my arm.

" Nothing, Jasper." I replied, trying to forget what just happened just a few moments ago.

" You may be blocking me with your shield, but anybody can tell that somethings got you troubled." he looked concerned as he stared into my eyes almost in a hypnotizing way.

" Well, it's just that..." I began to say as I stared back into his taunting, warm topaz eyes . But I quickly snapped out of it before I said too much. " Ugh, I've gotta go Jazz. I'll tell you later." I started to pull away from his embrace.

"Bella" he said in a warning tone

" I promise, I'll see you later." I said as I continued to hurriedly move down the hall.

Making my way down the hall to my next class I noticed that the halls were starting to clear out. Luckily, only Ara was in this class, and I made it just in time to make it before the bell rang.Taking my seat next to my awaiting daughter who looked full of questions.

Once class started, it was nearly impossible for me to concentrate.The Biology teacher,Ms. Francis, wasn't one of those tough, strict, teachers so she didn't assign us much work. Our assignment was to create notes on cell division and write a reflection on them due at the end of the period. Easy, right? Wrong.

I'd find myself just writing words instead of thinking about it. Whenever I'd try to concentrate, my mind would go right back to thinking about him. Edward. I kept having to go back and erase words that I wrote on accident,Edward...doesn't deserve me...still love him....the vision...forgive him... And when I did actually think about the work, I'd catch myself and start thinking about Edward again!

I looked beside me at Ara and saw that she was about done with her work. Usually I'm able to work fast but class was almost over and I only had half a page of writing. I figured I'd be able to cram and finish the assignment in a few minutes.

Okay,mitosis is the process by which a cell divides asexually and results in 2 daughter cells...Edward and I have a daughter...Edward...Can't believe him..Ugh! Focus Bella! Alright, meiosis is the process, that can occur in humans, by which a cell divides sexually...sex....I remember that magical night Edward and I had sex...it was amaz- Whoa! Wait! Bella stay focused.

I threw my pencil down on the desk in frustration." Here, mom" Ara whispered as she passed her now finished notes to me, "Just copy those"

I looked up at my angel "Thanks baby, you know I really appreciate you..you're about the only one that's really been there for me." I sighed, taking the notes and copying them.

"You're welcome. I'll always be there for you." Ara replied as she rubbed my back

The next class was dance. There was no way in hell that I would be able to handle this class, not with the way I was feeling right now.
