I had to do it I had to leave her; it was for her own good. I was a danger to her and my selfishness and love for her kept putting her in danger. This Jasper incident was a real eye opener. (In New Moon, where Jasper attacks Bella)
If I truly loved Bella I would leave her, I would leave her to save her life.

Edward has been acting so strange since the night of my birthday, I don't like it, and im scared. His hardly spoken a word to me, I miss my Edward so much.
I was thinking in my own little world when I heard Edward speaking, it zapped me back into reality.
"Bella, would you come for a walk with me?" (This is different from the book)
"Of course! Did he really have to ask? If he asked me to jump off a bridge, I probably would, and that's just because I know that he'd be there to save me.
We started walking along the track going through the trees. Edward suddenly stopped walking, I instantly followed suit.
"Bella..." He started to say something but then stopped. He seemed at a loss of words. And his face looked, well kind of sad, but I can't imagine why. He seemed to shake the sadness off, because then he was impassive. I couldn't read any emotions on his face. He was a mask of blank.
"Bella my family and I, we're leaving"
"Why? And when? Can't you wait for a little bit longer, at least until school finishes? Then I can tell Charlie that im leaving for College"
"No Bella. You misunderstood me." He took a deep breath. "Bella YOU are staying here. My family and I are leaving." I was beginning to understand, much to my distaste.
"Why? I don't understand. Why leave me here, when you are gone? I want to stay with you"
"You're not good for me Bella. What we had was fun, but it's over now. It's time to move on." I wasn't going to let him leave me so easily. What we had was fun!! Is he joking?
"How can you say that? Edward I'm not going to just let you walk out of my life. I LOVE you. I'm in it for the long haul, not just some flimsy fling. And you love me too"
Edward looked up at the sky, and took a deep breath. When he looked back down he looked different again, not so impassive but a little cold. Like he just wanted to leave, and was bored.
"Bella, I tried to say it as nicely as I could, but you're just not getting it. You couldn't just hear what I said and walked away. Now you're going to make me hurt you. Do you want the truth Isabella?" One he said Isabella instead of Bella and two what truth? Has he been lying to me?
"You know I do Edward"
"Fine, but you asked for it. What we had wasn't even fun. All we could do was stupid little kisses where I could barely touch you. And when I did touch you I wanted to rip your throat out. I have to fight with my sister just to keep you around, and my brother can't even come inside his own house because your there. You're clingy and the simple action of holding my girlfriend results in a blanket separating us. Oh yes our relationship is fantastic. Im scared im going to hurt you all the time."
"Well if you feel that way why do you even care?" I said with tears in my throat.
"I may not love you anymore but I still care." There he said it. He doesn't love me. There was nothing I could do now. He saw the defeat in my eyes.
"Good-bye Bella. Take care of yourself, may you live a long, rich life fulfilled with happiness."
He leaned down and kissed me on the forehead, and then he gave me a sad smile. I felt the tears run down my face. I didn't know how I would survive without Edward. He turned his back from me and began to walk away. I choked on a sob, and Edward paused for barely a second. I probably imagined it.
I was watching him walk away, his body becoming smaller and smaller until I could see him no more.
I could barely hold myself up, the tears racking my chest hurt so badly.
But through all of that I heard something in the bushes. I think a big part of me was still listening out hoping that Edward changed his mind and realized he was wrong about his feelings and he does still love me, so he came back for me. But when I turned around I wasn't so lucky.
My heart stopped in my chest, and the tears on my cheeks froze. I was in shock. I was just staring at the figure in front of me, terrified for my life, because now there was no one here to save me.
So I did the only thing I could think of hoping somebody would hear my helpless screams.
I screamed so loud I probably tore my throat. It was a scream that scared even me.
In that second I knew how scared I was but once the initial shock was over, I realized that maybe this wasn't a bad thing. Did I really want to live without Edward? I already knew the answer to that. Of course I didn't.
Maybe the person who had come to kill me was actually my savour.
There standing in front of me, victorious as ever was none other than..... Victoria.
