Summary- Bella Swan used to live in Forks, Washington until she got a phone call that her mom was divorced from Phil and planned on moving to L.A. and wanted Bella to come live with her. She has big dreams that can come true in the famous city, but on the other hand in the town of Forks she has everything else she could have ever dreamed of. Amazing friends, her overprotective yet wonderful bear of a brother, and most importantly the love of her life. No matter what decision she makes her life will be changed forever.

Disclaimer- I unfortunately do not own anything except the plot line.

I was on the phone with my mother while sitting outside trying to comfort her over the phone because of her now finalized divorce. When she first called over 30 minutes ago she said that she had some other big news and a request but she had yet to tell me what either of those were.

"Mom what was the big news that you had to tell me?" I asked her.

She sighed and said, "My news is that I'm moving to Los Angeles in a few weeks. I already picked out a house and was wondering if you would like to come and live with me there? And if you wanted to maybe we could look into getting you an agent."

I didn't know what to say. I mean on one hand it was L.A. and she was even offering me an agent. On the other, Forks held many people that were close to my heart but most importantly Edward was here.

"Sweetie, I know this is a big decision for you and I don't need an answer right now. You can let me know within the next few weeks. Good-bye, I love you honey."

"Okay. I love you too, mom. Bye." With that I hung up the phone.

I was sitting on my doorstep,I hung up the phone and it fell out of my hand,But I knew I had to do it,And he wouldn't understand,So hard to see myself without him,I felt a piece of my heart break,But when you're standing at a crossroad,There's a choice you gotta make. I didn't know what to choose. I couldn't make my decision right now, that much I knew for sure. This would take a lot of time to think over and right now I wasn't sure if I was even going to be able to make a decision at all. My options were huge. The first one being, leaving everything I have here behind and chasing a dream that may not even work out in a city full of people all aiming for the same thing. My second option was staying here in this small town and wait and see how things played out between Edward and I.

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,I guess I'm gonna have to cry,And let go of some things I've loved,To get to the other side,I guess it's gonna break me down,Like falling when you try to fly,It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,Starts with goodbye.

I had finally made my decision. It took me three whole weeks but I had finally done it and it was all but easy. The only ones that know what I planned on doing were my brother, Jasper, and our father. I just hoped that this wasn't all for nothing and that everything worked out because I would be breaking a few hearts.I know there's a blue horizon,Somewhere up ahead, just waiting for me,Getting there means leaving things behind,Sometimes life's so bitter sweet. My decision was that…I was going to try things in L.A. with my mom. I couldn't just keep living in this small town not knowing whether or not I could have made it in that world. This might end up as one of the worst mistakes of my life but I needed to take this chance and there was only one way I could think of to do this without changing my mind. I was going to runaway. Well not really because Jasper and our dad would know where I was but when asked they were going to say that I ran away to live with my mom in a new state.

The worst part of it all was that I wasn't going to tell Edward anything in person. I had decided that I was going to call him to tell him that me leaving was all for the best, that I had to do it. I at least owed him that much.

I guess it's gonna have to hurt,I guess I'm gonna have to cry,And let go of some things I've loved,To get to the other side,I guess it's gonna break me down,Like falling when you try to fly,It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,Starts with goodbye.

I kept trying to convince myself that it was all for the best and that I would regret not taking this chance. I guess it would just take time.Time, time heals,The wounds that you feel,Somehow, right now.

I actually left. I couldn't believe that I had gone through with it. The whole entire flight to Los Angeles I stared out the window and silently cried. Once I arrived at my new home my crying just got worse and I new I couldn't call Edward yet, that I would have to wait a few days 'til I could talk to him without crying. I guess it's gonna have to hurt,I guess I'm gonna have to cry,And let go of some things I've loved,To get to the other side,I guess it's gonna break me down,Like falling when you try to fly,It's sad, but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life,Starts with goodbye,I guess I'm gonna have to cry,And let go of some things I've loved,To get to the other side,Starts with goodbye,The only way you try to find,Moving on with the rest of your life,Starts with goodbye,Na na na na na na na.
