Equinox
You know that place inside you, where pain and suffering are just words to your broken heart? It's where you'll retreat when you see that there's no point living in an empty shell. And he's not coming back.
Readers!
I'm back, once more. Yay. More twilight stories coming your way, this time with a slightly more unusual pairing. I've decided to test myself with trying out story idea/pairing that are very much unused, and happens to be one that I absolutely adore.
Haha, you will have to wait and see….
Anyway, no real grand plans for this story, we'll just see how it goes.
This story starts in New Moon, at the start of Chapter 12: Intruder. It will probably follow the New Moon story structure and most characters will appear. All is from Bella's eyes.
Enjoy =)
Disclaimers: I do not own Twilight, Stephanie Meyer does. And, might I add, if I did own twilight, I CLAIM JASPER!!
Chapter One: Dead of the Night
I woke up instantly, unsure of what had woken me up. It was still dark, the quiet of the night.
I checked my watch. 2 am.
I groaned and lay back down. I wouldn't get to sleep, not now. Inside me, deep down, all the emotion I had been bottling up was about to erupt.
Jacob. My safe harbour.
How could he do that, to me? Was it so wrong for me not to like him like he wanted me to? Couldn't we just be friends, or was that never enough for boys?
Then the tears started. It wasn't Jacob's fault. I couldn't blame a friend like him. It was Sam. He was the problem, not Jacob.
Was it drugs? No, not that, never. The Jacob I knew would never be involved with that sort of stuff.
But… there was the nagging feeling. The Jacob I saw today – the Jacob that was suddenly so angry – that wasn't my Jacob.
Something scratched across my window, a high-pitched, nails-across-the-blackboard sound.
I shuddered, and it had nothing to do with the temperature.
I stumbled across the room to the window, lead by some instinct I had no control over.
A huge, dark shape hung over the glass, hands scratching at the window. I stepped back, terrified. This had to be another nightmare, I was sure. I couldn't scream.
Victoria? She'd finally come for me, to take her revenge for James. Only now, the Cullens weren't here to protect me. I was alone, defenceless.
I would die tonight.
And Charlie! My stomach backflipped. Not Charlie. I bit back a scream. No matter how much Victoria hurt me, I would stay quiet, so Charlie would have no reason to investigate. He didn't deserve my fate.
The lock on the window clicked, and the window started to slid upwards.
A figure stepped through, landing silently on the wooden floorboards. They stood up, easily way taller than me. They stalked toward me, quiet as ever. My breath was coming out raggedly, and my heart beat crazily. This was it. This would be how I died. I'd be one of those tragic headlines, a thrilling murder mystery.
I reached behind me, looking for something to protect myself with, even though resistance would be futile.
My hands hit the wall, and I backed up against it. No where to go now. I hoped it would be over swiftly. I knew there would be no point begging.
The figure paused by the lampshade. What was she waiting for? Dragging out my terror, no doubt. That was Victoria. My death would not be pleasant.
The light clicked on. The figure, now easy to see, smiled at me.
"Remember me?"

Watcha think?
Next chapter up soon, maybe…
If you don't already know, deadlines mean nothing to me. Chapters will be added when I feel like it. (hint: reviews = me happy. Me happy = better writing mood. Better writing mood = finished chapters. Finished chapters = YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!)
