"Bella. You are my one and only love and nothing will keep us apart. Not our parents. Not our friends. Not even the distance that stands between us. I'll come back for you. I always will." Jacob gingerly lifted up his fingers to my cheeks and softly wiped away the tears which were now silently flowing down hitting my shirt leaving little wet droplets. I could hear the car horn honking outside of his house. I knew that my parents were waiting for me to leave and I was making them late.
I would never forgive them for uprooting my life and relocating me to a place that I would never be able to call my own. This was where I had grown up and where my life laid. I was meant to be here and nowhere else. I was leaving in the middle of my junior year and all because dad got a promotion in a town across the damned country. I had to leave behind my friends and the tight knit family I had formed while I grew up here. But what killed me, what really out shown everything else was the fact that I was losing the one and only person that I had grown so close to over the years, the only man who was ever able to work their way into my heart and hold it and protect it. Jacob was going to be staying here while I was going to be moving 5,000 miles across the country so that my parents could start their lives but I was going to be losing mine. It took all I had not to just completely melt into his tight and warm hug as my parents urgency began to increase. I was going to make us late for our flight. But honestly I really didn't care.
"I love you Jacob. I'll be waiting for you." He nodded and kissed the top of my head before opening the door. I reluctantly stepped away from Jacob unable to stop the quiet sobs that wracked through my body. He bowed his head not looking at me as I climbed into the car slamming the door behind me.
"Bella, this will be good for you. You'll like it there. Trust us. We wouldn't do this unless we thought we were doing what we thought was right for you." I rolled my eyes refusing to take my eyes off of Jacob as his tears dripped down from his eyes. There was nothing good that was going to come of this. Only bad was going to be in my future.
"I'm going to like nothing there. Everything I like and love is all here, this is my home and if you think that I'm going to find it better to where ever you're dragging me then you're in more of a delusional state than I thought." I hissed back. They both sighed and shook their heads.
"You're new home is called Forks Bella and there you'll be able to accomplish so much more than you would have ever hoped to accomplish here. It's a little blip on the map but the high school has some of the best teachers in the country and not to neglect the fact that they have the best writing program at their state college just 20 minutes away from our new house. You need to start thinking about yourself Bells. You need to do what's right for you now. This is your life." I fumed. I knew what he was getting at.
"No, why don't you say what I know what you want to say. You think Jacob is just a dead end and with him I would end up nowhere. Let me tell you something. I love Jacob and nothing is going to keep us apart. You have control over me for the next 2 years but after that I'm gone. I'll never forgive you for this. Never." I said finally looking out the window as the trees whizzed by. My mother frowned and I could see the tears welling up in her eyes.
"I'm sorry you feel that way Bella but I hope you change your mind about it. I think you'll find yourself loving it there if you give it a chance. We've known Jacob since he was a child and we love him like another son. But you have to remember Bella that you've never left Jacksonville before. You've never gotten out to see what else there is in the world. I don't want to upset you but who knows maybe you'll find someone new and someone who better suites you, in ways you've never even imagined." I just decided to drop the conversation because I knew that we were never going to see eye to eye on this one. Nothing was going to change their mind now so now all I could do was wait for my high school years to be over so that I could come back to my real home and to start my life with Jacob once and for all.
