Full Moon

Preface--

What if Edward never came back in New Moon?

Edward Cullen never came back to reclaim my heart after that extremely eventful eighteenth birthday of mine. And so the gaping hole in my chest in place of my heart never healed.

I moved on with my life, however. Though it was extremely hard. That spring before I graduated, Jacob and his pack took out Victoria. I continued in the way of extreme sports for a year or two, with multiple injuries, to indulge the voice in my head, but eventually it started to fade as the months and years continued.

I somehow graduated high school with honors and I forced myself to leave Forks to attend the university in Seattle.

Though I do find myself more in love with Edward with each passing minute of each passing day, and the pain in my chest never lessened, I found myself growing in love with Jacob Black. He could never compete with Edward in my love, but he was safe and stable and warm. My sun, my best friend.

After my second year of college we got married, and soon after I found out I was pregnant. So I put college on hold and moved onto the tiny reservation in La Push with Jacob.

Money was tight, but we found that we were relatively happy. Jacob knew I was always in pain, but we constantly made jokes about how neither of us could hold are shape for very long.

After our daughter, Bailey, was born, I returned to my education at the local community college and eventually got my degree in teaching.

I soon became the English Literature teacher at the high school on the reservation. Books no longer tormented me anymore, so I found I could read the classic again. I also found that music wasn't so appalling, either.

It took years to overcome the pain of getting reminded of Edward. But I think what lessened it was my love for Bailey.

She grew up in La Push with Jacob and me, the pack, and Charlie. We were pretty content. However, Bailey never knew her father was a werewolf. She knew the legends, but that's all they were to her, legends. And she never found out about my first true love. I never spoke of him in front of her and everyone respected the fact, and they never utterd a word.

However, things change, and my radiant sun, Jacob, imprinted on a young lady from the Makah reservation. I knew this was a possibility. Jacob tried to fight it, in his love for me, but in the end I told him to go to her.

This happened when Bailey was fourteen.

We're still a family, though. Jacob only lives a few miles from where I now lived and we are still best friends, which I know helps Bailey.

Now Bailey is seventeen, almost eighteen and heading to college in Seattle.

And though twenty years have passed, I don't look a day over twenty-five. And somehow I think that had to do with Jacob. Who will forever appear to look in his twenties, until he controls the change. He still looks the same as always.

I am forever grateful for the light and warmth Jacob and Bailey filled my life. But Edward has always crossed my thoughts and I was always holding myself together. I still hear his fading voice on occasion, but I'm always filled with hope that he will someday come back and reclaim my heart.
