Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight Stephenie Meyer does and Your Guardian Angel belongs to The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
I was driving to the Cullens house to spend the day with Rosalie and Alice while Edward, Emmett, and Jasper went hunting. It was raining hard and it looked like my windshield wipers would come off from their force of hitting the rain away. The road reminded me of a river and I had trouble seeing it. As I drove through town I slowed down trying to be more careful. The radio was on and a new song came on.
"And this is Your Guardian Angel from The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus." The radio announcer said.
"When
I see your smile
Tears roll down my face I can't replace
And
now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold
and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me
I can be the one
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up
for you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if
saving you sends me to heaven
Seasons are changing
And
waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow
longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one
I
will never let you fall (let you fall)
I'll stand up for you
forever
I'll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even
if saving you sends me to heaven
Cuz you're my, you're my, my,
my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz
I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and
Please tell me
you'll stay woah, stay woah
Use me as you will
Pull my
strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my
skies are turning gray
I will never let you fall
I'll stand
up for you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if
saving you sends me to heaven
[to

The song ended and I was lost in thought. The song reminded me of Edward and mine's relationship. A rap song came on so I turned off the radio and stared out of the windshield. I was on the road where the houses grew farther apart and the forests spread out more when my truck started making a high pitched noise. It started slowing down a little so I pushed slightly harder on the gas pedal. The sound grew louder so I took my foot off of the pedal but it didn't come up with my foot.
I tried stepping on the brakes but they wouldn't go down. I was getting panicky now because the rain was coming down harder and the rain was picking up. I was still trying to work the brakes when I heard the loud horn blaring. I looked up just in time to see the headlights of the tractor trailer barreling toward me. I realized that I had swerved into the other lane while trying to stop the truck. Both vehicles collided and I threw my arms in front of my face.
I heard the crashes and trucks skidding. I then felt the pain. The smell of blood was strong even though the rain was falling on me. I passed out and started feeling numb.
When I woke up I heard screaming and sirens. I opened my eyes and saw people running around everywhere. I saw the remains of my truck and the tractor trailer. There were police and paramedics and other people who had driven by.
"What's happening?" I asked the nearest person but they ignored me. I walked over to a police officer and noticed him as one of Charlie's friends from the station. "Mark, what's going on?" but he ignored me too. "Someone answer me!" I shouted but no one seemed to hear me.
"Bella!" I heard the one person that would answer me. I turned and saw Edward, Alice, Carlisle, Emmett and Rosalie hurrying towards my truck.
"Edward!" I yelled running over to him. I was surprised that I didn't trip but that didn't matter. He didn't turn when I yelled though, none of them did.
"Excuse me, you can't go over there," a police officer said as they got closer to the truck.
Edward growled at him and walked around the now stunned man. I followed them to my truck.
"Edward I'm right here. Edward?" he just went over to the truck where a few paramedics were loading someone onto a stretcher. "Edward look at me!"
But he just kept walking to the paramedics. When he got to them he turned to one who was supervising.
"How is she?"
"She's dead. Died on impact." He said sadly.
"What? No!" he looked around desperately at his family. Rosalie sobbed into Emmett's shoulder and he held her close with a look of deep sadness in his eyes. Alice held her face in her hands and Carlisle had his arm around her shoulder.
I walked over and saw what they were looking at. On the stretcher with so many cuts was my body. There was blood everywhere and my face had a large bruise on it.
"No Edward I'm right here," I held my hand out to touch his shoulder but instead of feeling his icy shoulder I went right threw him. "No, I'm not dead. No!" I said to myself. "Alice, Carlisle, Rosalie, Emmett! I'm right here I'm not dead!" but I knew that I couldn't have survived that crash and how else would I be able to see my body. "No, no," I sobbed.
My funeral was three days later. Half of Forks came. In the front row with Charlie, Renee, and Phil were the Cullens. Edward sat in between Alice and Esme who cried dry tears through the whole thing. There were speeches made by Mike and Angela then Alice went up.
"Bella was like a sister to me. She put up with my craziness and let me dress her up even though she hated it. She made my brother the happiest I've ever seen him and probably ever will see him. She was an amazing woman and there is no one in the universe like her. What happened was the worst thing that could happen to her and I can only hope that she wasn't in any pain and that she knows how loved she was and always will be."
She walked down from the podium her walk not dance like for once. Jasper put his arm around her as she took her seat. Next was Edward. I had been standing at the back of the church but for this I walked up the front and stood against the wall.
"Bella was my life and my only love. She was a comet in my life lighting up my life. She was the most unselfish person I have ever met and one of the most stubborn. She stayed with me through everything and never got angry even when she had a good reason to. There will never be anyone like her, no one could be that kind and loving and still be able to act firm and stand up for what she wants. Bella, I love you and I will always love you."
He stepped down from the podium and sat back down in the pew. Esme held his hand through the rest of the ceremony. Afterwards my casket was taken to Forks cemetery where my body would stay for all eternity. As it was lowered Edward had to look away. When it was over everyone gave Charlie, Renee, and Phil their condolences. Everyone left after that until only the Cullens were left.
"Your speeches were beautiful, I'm sure Bella would have loved them," Esme said.
They all placed flowers on my headstone and then it was Edward's turn. He had a rose that was white but at the ends it turned to a bright red.
"It's beautiful Edward." Alice whispered.
"It reminds me of her blush, how her skin would go from ivory to red in an instant," he murmured before placing the rose delicately on the headstone. "Can I have a minute alone?" he asked his family.
"Of course, we'll see you back at the house," Carlisle said.
They left and Edward knelt down so that he was eyelevel with the gravestone. He traced the words that were forever carved into the stone.

"Bella love, I want you to be here with me. I don't think I can survive without you." He whispered his voice warped from his emotions. "You are the only one I will ever love, please know and remember this."
I knelt down beside him and brushed my hand against his cheek. I then gave his cheek a light kiss and he looked up as though he had felt it.
"I will always be your guardian angel," I whispered in his ear.
