Chapter One:
My heart raced and my face flushed as I raced to the cliffs. Like a drug addict, I desperately climbed onto the tallest cliff, fraught and anxious just to hear his voice.
Him.
Edward Cullen. The love of my life who no longer loves me. It was about time; after all, how long could a mere human sustain the interest of a perfect god? Edward was gone, enjoying a new and exciting life, while I was left in Forks, to feel the consequences alone.
A slight rustling in the woods caused me to glance quickly over my shoulder toward La Push. So I wasn't necessarily alone. Jacob and his pack brothers have served as the string that has barely held me together over the last couple months. If it wasn't for them, I would be a complete mess right now, in an even worse state that I was in now.
Going to La Push provided me with an escape. Occasionally, Jake would bring up the Cullens, usually to remind me of how he was here helping me while they were gone. Those not-so-subtle reminders were painful, but sometimes, I would go for a couple minutes without remembering the vampires, a couple minutes where I could forget my broken heart. However, the best part of hanging out with Jacob was the danger, for when I was in danger, I would hear Edward's voice, cautiously warning me to be safe.
I lived for hearing his voice; as long as I had some piece of Edward, I knew I had some hope. This hope is what kept me alive.
I slowly inched out toward the edge of the cliff and waited. Nothing. Where was his voice, telling me to turn back? I glanced around; this was definitely dangerous why wasn't I getting reprimanded?
After taking more tiny steps, I finally gave in and took a huge stride; I was right at the edge of the cliff. I almost lost my balance and teetered on the side of the ledge-- I threw myself backwards to save myself from falling off into the dark, murky waters. Nope. Still nothing.
Suddenly, I realized what was happening. I lost Edward's voice. I had almost fallen off a cliff and I still didn't hear my angel's words. His voice was gone; Edward was gone.
Edward was gone.
And I was alone.
