I don't own anything. Twilight and it's characters belong to Stephenie Meyer.
This takes place right after the kiss shared between Bella and Jacob before the newborn fight, when Bella had to say the words.
As I watched the dark haired children run into the forest, something happened. I don't know if it was my vision of my could-be future or the kiss that made my knees weak but I suddenly knew. I knew I couldn't do this. I couldn't leave Jacob behind after what we'd been through. I couldn't pretend anymore that I didn't love him. That I didn't need him to hold my hand sometimes when I was scared, that I didn't need his obnoxious teasing to make me feel better,...that I didn't need his love to go on. No matter how much I knew I loved Edward, Jacob would always overcome that. When Jacob saved me from myself, he had become a part of me. A part I realized, I wasn't ever going to forfeit. I gasped at my split second epiphany. I knew today I was going to make my choice, and I would let go of my first heart-shattering love and say hello to my destiny.
I opened my eyes and he was there. Our foreheads touched and our lips centimeters apart, his eyes were still closed. I felt his hot breath of my face. I unwound my fingers from his hair and placed them on his warm cheek. His eyes opened and it clicked. I saw everything in his dark brown eyes. His love, his fear, his excitement and lust. It was us, only. I didn't remember the newborns that were setting out to kill me, the others who fought for me and the towns' safety. It was Jacob and I, and our beautiful future waiting for us. And then I saw shock in his eyes.
"Bella...I...," Jacob said, his voice higher with excitement, and I think...fear?
Okay, so I know that's extremely short, but I did this because if people read this and aren't interested, I'm not going to keep writing it. So give me your opinion and if I get even just one reviewer saying keep on going,...I will.
