Lullaby in the Dark.
this is a story i just randomly decided to write. It takes place when Edward leaves Bella in New Moon. But what happens when he can't stay away? He needs to be there to protect Bella, but he is determined not to let her find out that hes there. Will Edward be able to survive the torture?
Disclaimer: Stephenie Meyer, the god that she is, owns everything! (obviously lol)

It's been exactly five hours, twenty minutes, and four seconds since I left my precious Bella. I could still see her tattered expression, it was forever engraved into my memory. The way her words rang into my ears... it killed me to think she actually believed me.
Her eyes that I could stare into forever, that told a story like no other, fell the second I told her that ugly lie. The glistening brown-orbs turned dull and flat at the words I had said.
"You don't want me?" I remember her saying flatly
"No." the word still stung on my tongue. I told her how I needed her to forget about me... about my family. I remember how she pleaded for me to stay, for me to take her away and love her, forever. That was her request... but I couldn't do it. I refused to damn my angel to an eternity of darkness. To take her away from Charlie, from Renee. No it wasn't right.
Alice has tried to stop me twice already. She called my cell phone, telling me about the vision she just had about My Bella.
The woods were dark now. I looked carefully to see a figure crumpled near a log. I heard her sobbing, the angel that I had-- still do-- love with all of my heart, her body shook violently. Her convulsions matched the wetness that fell down her face. Her hair matted and tangled with evidence of the musty forest
"EDWARD!" I heard the angel scream my name. I winced with the amount of pain behind it. "NO! I know you love me... please, Edward... don't leave me."
I stopped my connection with Alice at that point. My dead heart could not take it anymore. My running had slowed now, for the first time in hours. I broke into tear-less sobs. But I felt at that moment, I would have done anything to feel the salty tears fall from my onyx eyes and down my stone hard cheeks. I wanted to cry for my Bella. Cry for her like she was crying for me, screaming for me... How in the world would I ever survive without the light of my life. The person who showed me that I was not only a monster, but someone capable of love. The one thing I never thought possible. But now... it was all ruined.
"I am truly a monster... dear god, Bella. What have I done?" I huffed to myself, picking up speed again, leaving my one true love behind, but with the way I feel now, I won't be gone long...
Thank you for reading. Please tell me if it sucks and I won't continue, but review please. First fan-fic! Any help is appreciated
