This is a new fanfic of mine, the italics are New Moon and once they end my story begins. My chapters will be longer in the future. This is NOT another Edward never comes back and Bella gets changed...well maybe it is but I guarantee it isn't similar to other's except for the beginning.
Please review if you want me to continue. Feel free to give criticism, constructive or not.
I do not own Twilight, New Moon, or Eclipse.
Bella's P.O.V-
"Wait!" I choked out the word, reaching for him, willing my deadened legs to carry me forward.
I thought he was reaching for me, too. But his cold hands locked around my wrists and pinned them to my sides. He leaned down, and presses his lips very lightly to my forehead for the briefest instant. My eyes closed.
"Take care of yourself," he breathed, cool against my skin.
There was a light, unnatural breeze. My eyes flashed open. The leaves on a small vine maple shuddered with the gentle wind of his passage.
He was gone.
With shaky legs, ignoring the fact that my action was useless, I followed him into the forest. The evidence of his path had disappeared instantly. There were no footprints, the leaves were still again, but I walked forward without thinking. I could not do anything else. I had to keep moving. If I stopped looking for him, it was over.
Love, life, meaning…over.
I walked and walked. Time made no sense as I pushed slowly through the thick undergrowth.
Night was falling as I stumbled forward, nearly blind in the dark forest.
I tripped and hit the ground, hard.
I was numb, unfeeling, falling into a bottomless chasm of despair.
My eyes closed, I was not sleeping. No, sleep would be a relief.
After what seemed like hours of nothingness, I felt someone gripping my arm, trying to stand me up.
As they brought me to my feet, my eyes blinked open.
I saw a red blurry shape. As my eyes focused a spasm of horror racked through me.
Victoria…
