Never let me go
As I lay ther,trembling, with Bella in my arms,
my imaginary tears splattered over her cold,
still body.Why can vampires not cry?!
I thought angrily. I felt horrible.not just
because I wasn't crying,but because my
beautiful, kind,caring Bella was gone from
the world. and there was no way for me to join her.
Let me start the tale from the beginning. Six months
ago, Bella and I were going on one of our Friday night
dates.we had picked Chili's to eat at and we had just sat
down when she unloaded her news on me.i had noticed al
l night she wouldn't look at me.i was prepared for bad news,
but not this.
She took a deep shaky breath."Edward?"she looked up at
me."I have to tell you something.It's really hard to tell you
this,so please don't interrupt me.i can only say this once."
She had started to cry silently and I jumped out of my chair
to comfort her but she only turned away.i had no idea what to
say or do, so I just sat back down.
"Edward,"she tried agaun,"I have cancer and less than two
months to live!"it all came out in a rush, but I caught it all.or did I?
"What did you say Bella?I'm sorry,I'm afraid I misheard you,"I
sputtered.
"No,you didn't."
It's not true, It's not true, It's not true!She's lying IT IS NOT TRUE!i
thought.
"It isn't true,"I whispered.
She completely broke down now ,and everyone in the restaurant
turned to stare.i got up,glared at every last one of them until they
returned to their food, somehow knowing their life was about to
end,and then picked Bella up,threw money on the table,and ran us
to the privacy of my Volvo.Once their,I rocked her,stroked her hair
and gently kissed her lips until she calmed down a bit.as soon as she
stopped crying,I held her tight against me.
"Bella listen to me,"I said softly,"I will NEVER let ANYTHING
harm you in ANYway.that includes other vampires, yourself, or
any disease.If that means I have to turn you, then I will in a heartbeat."
She only shook her head.no.
"what do you mean no?!Bella I'm not asking permission!besides,
you've wanted to be a vampire for forever!"I said,enraged that she
would oppose to my saving her life.
"Carlisle is the one who told me I had it,he also told me you would
say that and that I should tell you no.He said with cancer, the venom
would,instead of making me stronger,would weaken me.he said I would
die before I fully transformed.Bitter irony.the thing I desired most,can now
kill me."
This could not be happening!
So?how is it?r&r baby! r&r!
