A\N- This just a short little one shot that I made up one day when I was board.
Summary- All human, Bella and Edward have been together for 2 years and their senior year is coming to an end but there is one thing that is killing Bella, Edward has never said I love you, Bella has but never has she heard it from him, she finds out something that is about to change her life forever.
Bella's Pov
About a month ago I had figured out that I had terminal cancer the doctors
said that I didn't really have a chance so I decided not to do chemo, why
do something that will just make me sick when I'm going to die anyway.
I decided today to tell Edward about my illness are school was about to go
on a 1 week vacation and the doctors said I had two left so if I
tell Edward tonight then we would have two weeks left to spend together
before I tell him I need to here three simple words I love you. Whenever I
would say that to him he would frown and say we are only in high school
and we shouldn't get so tied down and it hurts so much. He is my first for
everything I gave him my virginity and he cant even say I love you.
Maybe its just me. I slowly out of my Porsche ( my mom got it for me and
when she found out I was dying) when I got to Edwards I walked up the
steps and knocked on the door and answered the door he smiled
sadly at me he was the only one besides my parents that know about my
sickness. You can go right on up Bella he is in his room. I smiled gently at
him as I walked in. I walked up the stairs and knocked on Edward's door. I
heard him call out "enter" and with my heart pumping and palms sweating
I opened the door. "Hey Bells" he got up and walked over and gave me a
kiss "what's up babe". I sat down on the bed next to him and looked up into
his eyes I gripped onto one of his hands and said " Edward I need you to tell
me something and I need you to really mean it do do you love me"? I felt his
hand go slack in mine and he pulled back from me. Bella we have been
through this we are to young to be that attached next year when we go to
college we might meet other people and who knows we might not want to
be so attached. I let out a small gasp a one of pain this hurt so much just to
here him say that. He looked down at me and sighed. Bella I think we
should break up because you want more from a realsonship then I can
give. I got up and said a quick "bye" and ran down the stairs. I tried to go
Past Carlisle but he stopped me by putting his hands on my shoulders.
"Bella what happened did he break up with you because you are sick?"
"No I sobbed out I didn't tell him I asked him first if he loved me and he
said no". "Oh Bella I'm sorry" "Me too" I whispered. I went out into my car
and went home I wished I didn't say anything because maybe my last weeks
could have been happy ones.
Edward's Pov
I watched as she ran out of my room, she looked so heart broken and hurt
that I felt a pain in my heart. I just don't think I'm ready for love but hey
maybe since were going to the same college we could get back together
when I am ready. I just hate how much pain I caused her.
5 DAYS LATER STILL ON VACTION
Edward's Pov
I decided on getting back together with my old girlfriend Tanya she was fun
and hopefully can help me get over Bella I'm kind of afraid of Bella finding
out at school and hurting even more but hey were only 18 we have plenty of
time.
Back to school Bella's Pov
I walked along the halls feeling kind of crappy that day almost like I was
dieing. Hahaha I love my jokes. Then what I saw then shocked me and
made my heart even rip even further, Edward making out with Tanya
against the lockers. Edward looked up at me and looked a little
apologetically in his eyes. I just walked away and went to my first class. At
the end of the day Edward had caught up with me. "Hey Bella so sorry
about you having to see that". "Whatever I mumbled trying to hold back
tears." "Bella I don't get you were seniors we have tons of time". I snapped
"No Edward we all don't have a bunch of time in the world things catch up
to us."
I took off and went home deciding I didn't have to go to school for the
rest of the week.
WESDAY
EDWARD'S Pov
I had just gotten home from a date with Tanya, I had missed
Bella terribly but I hadn't seen her all week. When I walked in the dinning
Room I saw mom and dad sitting there looking very sad and depressed.
"Mom dad what's going on did someone die" I half joked, with a smirk.
My dad looked up sharply and narrowed his eyes at me "this is no time
to joke son now come sit down." I was really confused but I sat down.
My dad looked up at me, "Son a little over a month ago Bella found out
she had cancer. She had a bunch of tumers all over her body and she decied
not to do treatments because she knew she was going to die. I'm sorry but
she's dead". I looked up at him "what are you talking about I just saw her
she was fine and she would have told me". My dad shook his head slowly
I sorry son but she really was sick here she left you a letter.
Dear Edward
My dear Edward, you were my first and last love, my best friend, and my first and last lover. I will always love you even though you don't feel the same for me and that's fine don't beat yourself over it. You are the best guy in the world and any girl would be lucky to have you. The reason I didn't tell you is because maybe I'm selfish I just needed to here those three big words I LOVE YOU and I guess Iwasn't good enough for your love, maybe some day I'll see you again in a higher place
Yours always Bella.
I couldn't believe it I was in total shock she was gone we wouldn't have any
time to get back together, I couldn't wait to give her the three words she
needed to hear from me. I knew I loved her but I just didn't want to tell
myself that. DAMN IT !!! I broke down onto my knees crying.
I couldn't believe it I would never see Bella again. I could feel the
numbness wash over me and I could barely feel it when my mom and dad
wrapped their arms around me I would never feel again.
Epilogue
Edward's Pov
I am 72 years old I am an accomplished writer and musician. I was right I
Never did fall in love after Bella but I did adopt a little girl I found
wandering the streets after her parents left her. Her name is Maricanna and
she married an great man. I gently passed away during my sleep tonight and
when I reached heavens gates I looked like I was 18 again and their
standing by the gate was Bella. I had missed her so much. I ran over and
pulled her into my arms sobbing into her neck. "I'm sorry I did love
you Bella I just couldn't tell and I'm so sorry". She smiled her angelic smile
and said "I know honey I was just waiting for you." She held her hand out to
me and said "ready to start eternity with me" she smiled. "Iv always been
ready" I vowed give her a chaste kiss on the mouth and we turned and
walked through the gates of heaven finally together.
