I'd known Bella Swan since we were in high school together. Of course, I was just a lowly AV geek back then, not even on her radar, but she sure as hell was on mine. Ever since my lens captured her performance as Juliet in the senior play, I knew she was destined for greatness.
I fell in love with her almost instantly and I my heart just knew we were meant to be together, forever.
Being a nobody in high school meant, quite often, people didn't even notice when you were around. The day I overheard her telling her friends that she had received early acceptance to UCLA film school. I headed straight to the guidance counsellor and filled out my own application to UCLA.
When I got accepted I was over the moon, not only would I be in the same town but the same school as her as well.
Freshman year was amazing I learnt so much, and I got to capture her on film twice. Once was in a performance of King Lear, the other was when I caught her and her boyfriend Jacob defiling each other behind the bleachers after a football match. I don't know what she ever saw in that dog of a boy. I was more man than he'd ever be. No one would ever love her like I did.
Bella scored her first real film roll after a talent agent saw her performance in King Lear. I was so jealous that some other cameraman got to film her. Up until then it was always my job to capture her on film and I was not about to let a career progression stop that.
Over the course of the years I'd amassed quite a Bella Swan film collection. I had every performance she ever made during high school and College both on stage and off. I'm sure she wouldn't be too happy if my collection was to go public. Her and Jacob's penchant for sex in public places was always my favourite.
Thankfully when her film ended up being the teen film of the year she dumped his dumb ass.
As her career skyrocketed so did my love for her.
I was so excited when I landed the job as head cinematographer on her latest film. I was finally going to get to see her up close again.
The first day of filming, I was so amped I could barely stand still. I was checking over all the equipment when I heard her Melodic laugh. "She's here," I thought excitedly.
Looking up to see where she was, my excitement immediately turned to anger.
What the fuck is she doing with him?
There, just inside the studio, was my goddess in the arms of that whelp Jacob. It took every ounce of my control not to storm over there, and demand an explanation as to why she was back with him. I knew now was not the time though, I would bide my time and when it was right she would be mine.
What I thought was going to be my dream job turned out to be and exercise in extreme restraint. Everywhere my Bella went Mr Grabby-Hands went too. More than once I'd been working on something on set, and come across the two of them going at it like rabbits.
While my days where a nightmare my nights were far more enjoyable. In our room I spent hours upon hours surrounded by my beauty, plotting ways to finally possess what was truly mine.
It was the last day of filming when I finally saw my chance.
Everybody was standing around at the wrap party, socialising with false enthusiasm, when I saw my angel and the wanker sneak out of the party.
Knowing that no one would miss me, I followed them; they headed into her dressing room locking the door behind them. Thankfully I had a copy of the key, so I let myself in quietly.
The site that greeted me made my blood boil. There on the couch was my girl naked and letting the boy do awful things to her with his mouth.
"Get away from her!" I screamed.
Both of them looked at me shocked at my presence.
"What are you doing in here? Get out," my angel yelled as she grabbed Jacobs shirt to cover her body.
"Don't panic my love," I replied as I walked over to my girl. "I'm here now; you don't have to pretend with him anymore."
"Listen freak, get the fuck away from my fiancé and get the fuck out." Jacob demanded.
Her fiancé? Surely he was lying, there was no way my Bella would marry someone else.
"She's mine," I growled. "She loves me, there is no way she would marry you."
"Listen, creep, I don't know who the fuck you think you are. But I never even met you until the shooting of this film and I'm sure as hell not in love with you."
I didn't know what Jacob had done to bewitch her, but he must have done something because my angel would never speak like that.
I knew then that I needed to prove my love to her.
Pulling my knife from my pocket, I fully intended to show my goddess how I was the better option, however, before I could lunge at Jacob, arms wrapped around me from behind pinning me in place.
"Let go of me," I screamed. "I need to protect my love."
"The only thing you will be protecting, is your ass in prison," the guy who had hold of me chuckled.
They hauled me out of the building and I never saw Bella in person again. Every time she smiled for the camera, though, I knew it was for me.
Thank you for reading please review and let me know what you thought.
