I didn't really like how Jacob got all the sympathy in the fight, so I decided to write this. Edward is cut short a few times, so I tried to even him out.
I hope you like it!

All of the story is in Bella's POV- Sorry for any confusion. I am still pretty new at this.
I walked around the tent and climbed slowly onto his back. I knew that Victoria was not coming back, but that wasn't what had me feeling this way.
"Bella, love, you can relax. It's all over and everyone is okay. Calm down." He murmured.
As he ran down the steep hill, he held me a bit tighter that usual, not that I was objecting or anything. He still didn't know…about the kiss.
I stared at his innocent body and felt the guilt wrack through me. Why had I done that? Why couldn't I just let Jacob go!
He ran faster until we reached the clearing. Everyone was still there. He lifted me off and took my hand. A wave of guilt seized my heart.
"See," he whispered, "Everything's-" he cut off.
A newborn was edging his way from the forest. He looked at us. Edward leaped away from me and jumped on the newborn. I knew Edward wouldn't lose to this newborn, but I still shrieked as he jumped away from me.
Alice gasped, "Edward! No!"
I looked up to see my Edward fighting. I hated it because there was a chance he could get hurt.
The next few seconds of my life were in slow motion. Edward-who was completely involved in the fight- had turned his head. His attention snapping him out of the fight. I wanted to scream at him. TO tell him to turn around. Edward had a pained face staring at something beside me. All that had only taken a second. This time I did scream and the newborn wrapped its arms around Edwards chest and squeezed. His teeth sunk into the side of his neck. I heard Edwards faint groan, but then Emmett and a wolf were both on the newborn.
All I could see was Edwards lifeless body sag toword the earth. I ran over to him. Screaming his name. Jacobs arms came around me.
"Get away from me!" I yelled, " Don't touch me!"
He immediantly let go, as if my words stuck a nerve or something. Good I thought.
What had caused Edward to be so careless. He had had on that same look when Jacob tortured him at Forks highschool. Jacobs thoughts. The kiss. Oh god. Oh god. Oh god.
"Edward!" I screamed so loud it hurt my own ears.
Carlisle and Esme were around Edward now. Esme was sobbing tearless sobs. I was crying real ones. What if he never…. No! Never even think that!
"W-w-w-what hap-p-ened! " I cried. Alice took me in her ams and whispered, "I will tell you that later,"
I nodded and leaned closer to Edward.
"His chest and most of his ribcage is chattered," Carlisle had panic in his voice. That scared me.
"Why isn't he awake!" Emmett yelled from one of the near by fires.
Carlisle shook his head, "I am not sure. Maybe some nerves were damaged. They will need to heal first before the rest of him does. So he will be asleep for a while,"
"Hopefully he cant feel any pain." Esme whimpered.
"I doubt that," Carlisle whispered and I cried harder. I pressed my hand against his cheek, hoping that maybe he could feel its warmth.
I sat with him for a while. Crying and talking to him. Telling how sorry I was. How he never should have tried to be with me. He didn't deserve a monster like me.
"Bella," Alice whispered, "I need you to stay calm, but the Volturi are coming."
I gasped. Now? What!
"It's okay," she assured me, "they are just here to clean up. Everything is going to turn out fine."
I shook my head. I had heard that before. And now the love of my life was in critical condition and we couldn't tend to him until the Volturi left. I sobbed into the grass beside him. Careful not to touch his torso. I stoked his soft hair and traced his perfect features.
"Please be okay, please, please, please!" I whispered in a begging voice. I don't really think my mind had time to process the fact about the Volturi, and now that they were coming, it felt unreal. How many terrifying things could happen in one day? I probably broke the record for that.
I started shaking, my hands trebling as they worked through his bronze hair. Edward honestly was in pretty bad shape. His face did not look peaceful. His hair was everywhere, and I tried to smooth it down, but had no luck. Some of his clothes were shredded as well.
Esme must have seen me in my horrid state as I stared at the person I loved the most. She came over and sat next to me. She murmured soothing words to me. I glanced over once to the opposite end of the clearing and saw the black cloaks. I instantly averted my eyes to Edward.
I realized something then. He didn't know. He didn't know how much I loved him. His last thought could've been of me kissing Jacob! I started to cry as I realized that he thinks I chose Jacob. What could I possibly say to him? I had given him so many reasons to believe that I didn't want him.
I cursed myself. How was I now finally starting to understand how much I had hurt him? Was it because he might possibly be…I couldn't think the words. I have always known Edward had his insecurities. He thought he was mean, cruel and a monster. He made himself belive that he wasn't worthy of my love.
But he was.
