Hey everyone! So I'm back, and this time with a one-shot. I was listening to this song by Evanescence called 'My Immortal'. It totally made me cry and I got an idea for a short story. Hope you like it. This is just a one-shot. A section of this story is just gonna be a repeat of New Moon when Edward is saying goodbye in his P.O.V. So if you want you can just skip that part, it's kind of long. Oh and I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!! S.M does and she's awesome for that!! Now here is the story!!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Gone (E.P.O.V)
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
This can't be happening. This must be just a nightmare. I told myself, but of course it wasn't a nightmare. I can't sleep.
It was about a week ago that I decided I was going back to Bella. I was tired of trying to live without her. It just hurt to much.
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seen to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
I had left Bella about four months ago. I had to. I didn't want to, and it pained me to even think about leaving her. But I wanted to keep her safe. So I left.
'Bella, we're leaving.' I remember telling her. We were in the forest but not to deep in, I could still see her house.
I closed my eyes and sighed as I remembered that day.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years.
But you still have
All of me
Flashback:
"Bella we're leaving." I told her. She took a deep breath. It surprised me that she looked clam.
"Why now? Another year-" I cut her off. She misunderstood, she thought she was coming with us.
"Bella, it's time." I said. "How much longer could we stay in Forks, after all? Carlisle can barley pass for thirty, and he's claiming thirty-three now. We'd have to start over regardless." I told her, hoping she would understand.
She looked completely confused. I saw her trying to figure this out. She stared at me as to figure out what I meant and I stared back, coldly, I might add. I didn't want to look so mean but I had to. I saw my words slowly sin in to her head.
"When you say we-" she whispered.
"I meant my family and myself." I said each word separate and distinct. She shook her head slowly back and fourth, as if to clear it. I waited for her patiently. A couple minutes passed before she could speak again.
"Okay," She breathed. "I'll come with you." Okay new, plan.
"You can't, Bella." I said quickly. "Where we're going…It's not the right place for you."
"Where you are is the right place for me." She said with her stubborn face on. I mentally groaned. This is going to be harder than I thought.
"I'm no good for you, Bella." I said, trying to make it clear that I was dangerous. She didn't budge.
"Don't be ridiculous." She said, sounding broken. My heart broke at the sound of her voice. I just wanted to pull her into my arms and comfort her and tell her I was here. But I controlled myself and kept my expression blank as she continued. "You're the very best part of my life."
"My world is not for you." I said, sounding grim. She exploded then.
"What happened with Jasper - that was nothing, Edward! Nothing!" She shouted. I winced internally.
"You're right, it was exactly what was to be expected." I agreed.
"You promised! In Phoenix, you promised you would stay-"
"As long as that was best for you." I interrupted.
This time she shouted, furious, but she somehow still sounded like she was begging. "No! This is about my soul, isn't it?! Carlisle told me about that, and I don't care, Edward! I don't care! You can have my soul! I don't want it without you - It's yours already!" She looked in the verge of tears but she didn't cry. I took a long, deep breath as I stared at the ground. I didn't want to do this. It's going to rip me apart. But it's the only way to get her to let me leave. I grimaced a bit. Then I composed myself and looked up at her.
"Bella, I don't want you to come with me." I spoke slowly. I watched as she understood what I was saying.
"You…Don't…Want me?" she asked a bit confused. I didn't like the way those words sounded together.
"No." I said simply.
End.
You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
I reopened my eyes and tried to shake those painful memories away. We left and I never saw her again. I was a mess for several months. I tried to distract myself by tracking Victoria. Turns out I'm not really good at it.
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seam to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When I finally decided to go back to Bella, I told my family. They looked glad I was going back, but I saw sympathy in their eyes. I tried reading their minds but they blocked me.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
When I told Alice she didn't even smile. She looked sad. I tried to ignore them and took the first plane to Forks.
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though your still with me
I've been alone all along
When I landed I hurried to Bella's house, happy that I was going to see her again.
Flashback:
I was so glad I was back. I got out of the taxi and paid the man, then I hurried up the steps of her house.
Bella.
I was going to see Bella again! I knocked on the door impatiently. I heard footsteps inside the house coming to the door.
Who the hell is at the door at this time! I heard Charlie's thoughts. The door opened and the poked his head out.
His eyes, already red and puffy, widened. Had he been crying?
"Hey, Chief Swan." I greeted.
"Edward?" He gasped.
End.
My poor Bella. Why was I so stupid? This wouldn't of happened if I would've stayed!
Flashback:
I stood there, in the middle of the cemetery, in front of Bella's stone. No, no, no, no, no. Why her? What did she do to deserve this? I fell to my knees and sobbed.
"Why!" I shouted. This couldn't be happening. This has to be some kind of sick joke. I was hoping Bella would come out jumping shouting "Gotcha!" in my face.
But of course, nothing changed.
I sobbed again
End.
Charlie had told me she jumped off a cliff in La Push and when a guy named, Jacob Black, went in and brought her out, she was already dead.
My Bella.
Dead.
I was currently in Volterra, seeking my death. I had asked Aro to kill me but he refused. So now I was here, standing shirtless in the sunlight. All the humans around me gasped. I saw about three vampires coming at me. The last thing I saw was Alice running to me, yelling, "No Edward!" I smiled sadly at her, before whispering to myself,
"I love you Bella, I'm coming for you." Then everything went black.
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me.
Afterwards:
I was in this place, I didn't know where. I looked around me all I saw was white.
Where am I?
Then I heard it. Someone calling my name.
"Edward." I looked around and spotted her. My angel, running to me. "Edward!" I smiled and she crashed into me.
"Bella." I sighed into her hair. My arms wrapped around her.
"You came." She whispered. Tears pooling in her eyes.
"Of course." I said and crashed my lips to hers. When I pulled away I whispered to her,
"I love you." She beamed up at me.
"I love you too." I smiled and kissed her again glad to have her back in my arms. And this time I wasn't letting go.
The End
