I slowly walked toward the corner of the alley, making sure to keep in the shadows. I could not ruin my plan now. I looked around at the scenery of the city of Volterra. These poor people. They would witness my death. And my appearance in the sunlight would be the last they ever saw of me.
But none of this mattered. I would be with Bella soon. She died for me. Now I get to return the favor. I have been alive for too long anyway. I truly did think she would have moved on by now.
I
never said I'd lie and wait forever
If I died, we'd be together
I
can't always just forget her
But she could try
I had taken our time for granted. I tried to focus on her face instead. It was more pleasant. Everything that dealt with her had been pleasant. Even now, when the forsaken festival of the vampire slayer St. Marcus, who was a vampire himself, took place, I still felt relieved that I'd be with her soon.
At
the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never
coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the
things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are
ever ever...
Ever...
My memories of her rushed forward that caused me to lean back against the alley wall. The one that caught my attention is when we were in that dance studio, when I believed her to be dead. That feeling would feel relief compared to the on that I had been feeling since yesterday.
Get
the feeling that you're never
All alone and I remember now
At
the top of my lungs in my arms she dies
She dies
Suddenly, Alice's thoughts penetrated my own? She was near. Her voice rang furiously in my head. I sighed and reluctantly began to listen. I would have to do this before she came. I wouldn't want Alice to witness this.
Edward! Edward! Edward, listen to me! Bella's all right! Bella's alive! Bella's here! Please, rethink what you're doing.
I stopped listening. I couldn't endure much more of this. I didn't want to her to say her name. It caused me pain. Bella…her face came clear into my head. But she wouldn't come. I had to come to her.
At
the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never
coming home
Never coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the
things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are
ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could
I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For
all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me
I stood up slowly. I took off my shirt and carelessly threw it at my feet. Bella…I closed my eyes. I could almost hear her voice. The Volturri were coming.
"No! Edward, look at me!" she screamed. I smiled. So close… she was so close. I took my step that would bring me to her.
At
the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never
coming home
Never coming home
Never coming home
Never coming
home
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the
smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never
coming home
Could I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever
gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna...
My arms closed around the best thing I could ever wish for. Bella. "Amazing, Carlisle was right," I said and tightened my hold around her. I felt better because I was with her, and everything was fine.
A/N: This was my song fic in Edward's point of view right before he walked out into the sun in Volterra. The song was "Ghost of You" by My Chemical Romance. I think it fits Edward perfectly. Since Topaz Fireheart Storm was the first one to review my "Bleeding Love" Bella Song Fic, this one is dedicated to her! Thanks!
