Edward was gone and so was my soul. Of course, I can't help but think this is my fault.
He wouldn't have left if I was better, prettier and smarter, like Tanya. I was shocked when he told me that he liked her more than me and that I needed to be with humans instead of dating him, a supernatural creature.
He said that they are feared by us for a reason. And of course me being me, I denied anything like that. But he left anyway and took my soul with him.
I lie down on the forest floor near my house, and just lay there. No tears escape me; there would be no need for crying anyway. I knew he wasn't coming back for me. No, I was left alone with no one. Now, I know what you must be thinking; what about your friends?
Well, I hate to tell you, but I had no friends after the first month they got over me and Angela, the only one I considered my friend, moved away to a bigger town—not even in the state of Washington. So, I am pathetic and I know Charlie pities me, which is why I don't get up from the ground. I can't face the disappointment from Charlie, knowing that I will look like a foolish teenage girl who fell in love.
I, knowing I won't be able to lay here like an idiot forever, I pulled myself up. I didn't even know how much Edward had affected me; but I guess you don't appreciate things until they're gone.
I heard a rustling sound in the bushes which indicated that someone was there with me. For a split second, I thought that it was Edward, but the voice I heard was definitely not Edward's.
"Well hello there, love. How are you?" The man said in a British accent and I looked out at the forest in wonder. I didn't speak.
"A silent one I see. No matter. I can always use...other methods." He said and my eyes widened with fear. Fear so strong, I started to run running. I ran with no destination in mind. I ran just to get away from him. At one point, I bumped into what I thought was a tree, but was in fact the man I heard earlier.
"Where do you think you're going, my sweet?" He said and then I ran in the opposite direction of where he was. Somehow, he had caught up with me and was in front of me again. I bumped into him again and fell next to his feet. He grabbed me by my arms and lifted me up, and looks staring me in the eye.
"Now tell me why you are out here." He says and I complied.
"My boyfriend dumped me here and I fell. And then you came here." I said and mentally asked myself why I did that.
"How did you get to me so fast?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry about that right now, love. Right now, you're going to tell me about this...boyfriend of yours?" He said and I told him all about Edward, not even knowing why.
"Hmm, interesting. Well it seems you won't go back to your normal self, so I'll have to do that myself. But first – do you think I'm handsome?" He asked, smirking widely. I try to hold my answer but I can't.
"Yes." I said and he smiled, while I blushed and looked done down.
"Oh don't get shy now, love. We're just getting started."
