Bella's old pain was still there.
Edward Cullen.
(A/N: PLEASE READ AUTHOR'S NOTE. VERY IMPORTANT!! HAS IMPORTANT INFO!!)
The man who had stolen her heart, broken it into millions of pieces, kept half, then gave it to someone else. Her one and only love. She had thought he loved her. And all this time, he had secretly been with Tanya.
*Flashback*
Bella had been out shopping with Alice and Rose. When she arrived at their house, giggling and laden with shopping bags, she had stopped dead, the bags dropping silently on the floor.
Edward...
He had had his arms encircled around another girl, gently pressing his lips against hers. From her beauty, she appeared to be a vampire. She opened her eyes, and Bella immediately recognized her. Tanya. Alice and Rose noticed Bella and followed her gaze, and shocked, saw Edward with Tanya. Tanya saw them, and immediately pulled away. Edward grabbed for her, but she dodged.
She said quickly, "My sisters are probably worried about where I am. I'd better return home." Her figure was blurred as she ran at top speed away from Carlisle's house. At that point, Edward had noticed Bella. His eyes flashed with pleasure.
He said mockingly, "Oh, I'm sorry Bella. But it's not my fault you're ugly and she's beautiful. It's not my fault she perfect and you're flawed. I don't know why I ever picked you over her, but I realized my mistake last month. I've been cheating on you ever since, you know." He had smiled, but then Alice had screamed at him as Bella dropped to the floor, her eyes wide with shock. Alice told Edward to get out of Washington State if he wanted to stay alive. Edward laughed, slowly walking upstairs and packing his stuff. He left eagerly, probably heading off to Tanya's home in Denali...
Edward...
*End Flashback*
Bella was different now. Her brown hair was beautiful and shiny, her eyes a beautiful shade of brown, rather like chocolate, and she was thin and pretty. Her eyes were beautiful, but always, no matter what, if you looked into her eyes, you could see her pain, buried deep, but still not covered enough to not show.
It had been 5 years, and Bella was still hurting. She was in Dartmouth now, with Alice and Rosalie, newly transformed only a year ago. Bella had amazing control, though, so everyone had decided to go to college. Of course, they all stayed with Bella, comforting her, and swearing that if they saw Edward again, they would make him pay for Bella's sorrow.
Bella POV
I walked to class with Alice and Rosalie. We shared every class. We even managed to get a dorm room for three and only three. We stayed together. We were like, the group that no one ever dared talk to, the untouchable popular group.
You see, I didn't get that. I mean, yeah, we're vampires and all, but seriously. We won't bite. Well, we might, but we have enough self-control not to. Of course, I still keep in touch with Jess and Angela and Mike and Eric, but I mostly talk to Angela. She understands me. She doesn't push, she lets you talk. She sympathizes, and asks because she cares, not for gossip, like Jess. I told her about Edward. She's angry about him too.
The thing is, I'm still hurting. He's left a huge hole in my heart. He stole my heart, broke it in half, broke my half into a billion pieces, then gave the good half to her. Beautiful, perfect, strawberry blonde Tanya. The pain he's left, it's, indescribable.
It's like, you were cut into a million pieces, you were put in a jar of alchohol, the kind that stings really badly, then burned in a white-hot flame that's even worse than the three days of transformation. I'm bright and laughing on the outside, and dead on the inside. Only Alice, Rose, Em, and Jazz keep me from falling apart. I still love him. I need him, like, like a fire needs heat, like the earth needs the sun, like humans need air. That was Edward. I couldn't exist without him. He was my air, my protector, my partner, my best friend and the shoulder to cry on. We loved each other. Or at least, I loved him.
I still need him. I've tried to get over him, but he just lingers in the back of my mind, reminding me every waking and sleeping minute of my never-ending life about him and Tanya.
It's complete torture.
