Julian's POV

I wait for Isabella's mother to leave for work impatiently, I wish she would just hurry up. I twirl the gift in my hand. I just know my Bella will love it.

Finally, her mother walks out the front door and pulls out of the driveway. I scan the area making sure nobody is around before running to her front door and picking the lock. I push the door open and close it behind me, the house smells just like my sweet flower. As I walk to her room my heart flutters as her scent grows stronger.

My cheeks feel heated as I open the door to her room, I sit on her bed and breathe in the aroma. I gently set the rose in the center of her bed before looking around her room a bit more.

If we are going to be together we should share everything.

I look at her pictures on the walls and scan her books quickly, she has good taste. I open a drawer and pick up one of her sweaters, I bring the sweater to my face and inhale once more calmed by her scent. I put it back and open another drawer.

Surely my Bella wouldn't mind me looking through her clothes.

I put one of her hair clips into my pocket.
After being satisfied with looking around I walk out of her house once more to await her return.
I sat in the car waiting for hours for Isabella to return

What if she got hurt? What if she got picked up by some stranger? What if she's lost?

The thought of my poor flower out there lost and alone almost brought tears to my eyes. Just as I was about to go looking for her she walks into view being escorted by a skinny young boy.

Who is this? Why is he standing so close to her? Why did he hand her a slip of paper? What did it say? Is this a new boyfriend?

A million questions run through my mind as the boy leaves, finally I take a deep breath. The boy is probably just a friend, my Bella would never betray me. She switches on the light to her room and I watch her smile as she smells the rose I gave to her.

"I knew she loved me too."
