Can't Forget

by Pen2Computer

When Edward leaves Bella the first time, in Twilight, he manages to stay away for a whole year. However, even with only one encounter to remember, neither of the two can forget each other. Will fate remain the same, even if it's delayed? R&R please.

1. One year

Disclaimer: If I actually owned anything, would I really be writing it here? Hint: Answer is no.

Chapter One:

Bella Pov:

One year.

12 months.

365 days.

8760 hours.

One year seems like a long time when written out on paper.

One year is a long time.

It's enough time to graduate from your junior year, lose and gain new friends, and even time enough to adjust to your new home.

It's enough time to appreciate your dad, turn down multiple date attemps from certain guys with blonde hair, and to find 10 new ways to cook fish.

But there are some things that you can't do in one year…things that you can't even try to do.

One year has gone by since I moved to Forks, Washington, but I can't stop missing my Mother, and I can't force myself to like the rain or the snow.

But what I really can't do is forget.

I only saw him for a day.

I never spoke to him.

He sat next to me in Biology, once, but by the next day he was gone.

I don't know where he went, and I probably never will.

So, how come my mind can't get rid of Edward Cullen?

Edward Pov:

One year.

12 months.

365 days.

8760 hours.

I left that day.

I went to Denali, and never came back.

Eventually, my family came too.

I kept seeing her face in my mind, but I was too afraid.

Too afraid of the things I could do.

I only saw her for an hour, watched as she watched me.

It was only one single, solitary hour…but a lot can happen in an hour.

You can lose your self, your soul, your sanity.

I could have killed her in that hour, and everybody else around her.

I could have…and that's why I had to leave.

But now, one year later, I can't resist anymore.

I'm coming back home.

I'm coming to Forks.

I don't know if she'll still be there…and I don't know what I'll do if she is.

But the one thing I do know is, I just can't forget.

Thanks for reading! This chapter was extremely short, but it was almost more of a prolouge than anything. The other chapters are formatted in more of a story-esque way.

So anyways, if you liked it, review!

And if you didn't like it, review so I can get better!

Thank you! I'll try to update soon!
