Hello everybody! This is something that I came up with listening to a certain song, and I think I'm really going to like this story. I hope you do too. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight. Stephanie Meyer came up with these wonderful characters all on her own!

Prologue:
I remember a time where I believed that my life was simple, and that I was happy in its' simplicity - that I had someone, warm and safe, to hold me at night. That while my erratic, wild mother lived far from me. that she was proud of me and that was all I needed. That while my father rarely showed affection besides awkward hugs, and pats on the back, was proud of who I'd chosen as my lifelong companion. He knew that while I was with Jake, I had everything I would need to be safe, and happy - emphasis on safe, as that was something he, as the Chief of Police, took very seriously.
And perhaps he was right. For a while, what I found in Jake was exactly what I needed. Stability, to know that someone was always there for me in -case I fell - which was very likely since I was so clumsy. I knew him like the back of my hand, knew what his expressions meant. who he was, what his dreams and aspirations were. I believed at a certain point he knew me just as well, but now that I look back, I wonder if he knew me, or just the person who he thought I was. The Bella that was always selfless, that would never make a rash decision that would hurt anybody she loved, the one that was simple, and happy, and constant. Although I suppose that a certain point that was indeed who I was, I also knew that I had unknowingly thrown it all away.
For one person.
I stare at the house before me, twisting Jake's engagement ring around my finger, before walking towards the man with the crooked smile, and green eyes.
This was our story.
