An: 'Ello! For those who read my Degrassi Ipod story, this will be similar. Just you know, not. If that makes any sense at all...? No? Okay, well just read s'il vous plait. Oh, and I'm more familiar with these characters, so this one might be better just because it's easier.

Bella's POV

I could really blame my bad mood on the ever present rain, but I really knew it was just me. It was February and it was dark, which naturally didn't make me the happiest person alive. The only happy spots in my day were when Edward was with me. When he was with me, it didn't matter if I had to spend another day or another year here, just as long as I was with him, it was fine. Despite his ice cold skin, a fire always lit in my heart whenever I saw him, and it felt as if flames smoldered under my skin whenever he touched me. But I'd much rather me on fire than be without him.

"So Bella," I heard Jessica half shout behind my ear. I internally cringed, but I forced myself to stay with her and not run towards the parking lot to be with Edward. In his car. Yesterday we had gotten, ahem, carried away in there, so I was hoping for a repeat today.

"So, what do you think I should do?" I heard Jessica ask from behind me. We were out in the parking lot and I was looking for Edward, so needless to say I wasn't really paying attention to anything she was saying. Well, in truth I would have tuned her out anyway.

I saw his Volvo in its regular spot, but he wasn't in the driver's side waiting like he normally would. No, today he was talking to someone. Quite heatedly, I may add. As soon as some people moved I could see who it was; Jacob Black, the guy who used to be my best friend. That was before Fate had intervened and split us apart with Edward coming back.

Trust me, I wouldn't -couldn't- trade Edward coming back for anything. But the falling about between me and Jacob had hurt.

"Edward, what's going on here?" I asked quietly when I stopped beside him.

"Jacob wants to talk to you. Do you want me to leave?" Even though it probably would have been better for all of us if I had asked him to go, I wasn't that selfless.

"No, I want you here," I told him. Jeesh, could I be a little bit more gooey? "So what do you want to talk about, Jacob," I asked before I dragged Edward into the car for a repeat of yesterday. I looked over at him, and his jaw was tight.

"Look Bella, I know that we haven't been close since you're leech here came back," he gestured towards Edward and my eyes narrowed. "But I really miss you. And I think that it would be better if we were together. Because I know that you were happy whenever you were with me" Okay that's it! I'm not putting up with any of this bull shit any more!

"Goodbye Jacob," I told him, shocking the hell out of both of them. "Yeah, I was happy with you, but I wasn't complete. I've moved on. Or back I guess, because I'm with Edward. But I wouldn't trade him for anything." I pulled my eyes off of Edward, even though it hurt to take my eyes off of his face as he smiled his brilliant smile at me. He was happy now, because I knew that he was always afraid that I would tire of him and go to Jacob. Yeah right.

"It was fun hanging out with you and thinking that someone other than Edward may care for me. But that's over now. I'm not mad and I really don't feel bad, as horrible as it may sound, because I know that you will move on."

"Why, because Fate or some shit like that wants that to happen?" he scoffed. I shook my head.

"Nope, I think it must be karma. Anyways, back to by epic monologue before you interrupted me; We may have had the possibility of being something more before, but that's over and now we both just have painful memories that will never leave. Well, I heard that the Change might make them difficult to remember, but that's beside the point." I had apparently gotten through to him, because his hard mask was gone.

"So you've really gotten past everything we've been through. And you're ready to move on to you're bloodsucking leech?" he asked brokenly. I nodded and leaned into Edward, who had put his arm around my waist without my knowing it.

"Starting with getting married to him," I said rashly. Both of them looked shocked at my statement.

"Wait, you're actually accepting my proposal?" Edward asked, stunned. I snorted.

"You didn't think I could say no forever, did you?" I threw my arms around his neck and held on tightly as I could and his hands went under my shirt onto the skin of my lower back. When I let go, I turned and noticed that Jacob had left sometime when I was blissfully unaware of anything except for Edward.

I could almost feel the page of my life that I was on turn onto the next beautifully unexpected page. And somehow, that didn't really bother me.

You are the fire, on my apartment floor
sixteen stories, i'd rather burn then fall
it isn't fate, that took us all by storm
it's just the turn of a card
