Prologue
I don't own Twilight, -sigh- .
I am dazzling, but not that brilliant
Sooo sorry if this has
already been done. If it has, hopefully our ideas are a bit
different.
I gazed unseeing at the sea of red in front of me, seeing nothing but here face. Adults, children, all celebrating. It all seemed so pointless. Didn't they know? Didn't they know that the reason for my being, the purest, most beautiful creature in the universe was gone? The thought of her somewhere, happy and well, no chance that I would lose control and end her life was all that had kept from coming here before. All the self-sacrifice, the pain, had been for nothing. She was gone anyway, and in a sick, twisted way, I had killed her in my attempt to keep her alive.
I could almost imagine her voice. Almost imagine her smell, so tempting in its beauty. I wondered if it would have been different, if I hadn't left. Stayed with her, changed her, as she so desperately wanted. The taboo thought crossed my minds before I could stop it, and I moaned softly at the thought of being together, with her, forever, with no danger. But I had sworn not to hurt her anymore, and I wouldn't. If I had loved her enough, I would have been stronger than this.
I looked at the clock. The two hands were almost aligned. I felt a strange sense of peace wash over me as I realized that it would all be over soon. The pain of being without her, the pain of losing her would leave me and I could be in peace. I imagined her by my side as I closed my eyes, and took a step into the sun.
