Jacob and I were walking on a path in the forest. Suddenly, he stopped and turned to me.

"Bella, we have to talk." Jake said, his face carefully composed.

"Yes, baby?" I asked quietly, my eyebrow furrowing in worry.

He seemed to take a deep breath, and I could see that he was faintly trembling.

"I have something...to tell you."

I laughed. Didn't he just say that? But instead of joining in the laughter, he remained quiet. That usually meant he had bad news...oh no. This was exactly how he - I didn't allow myself to remember his name.

Bella! I scolded myself. Jake wouldn't do that; he saw how I was when he left me. He was the one who healed my wounds, most of them, anyway, and he was the one who promised me eternity at the church. Jake would never leave me.

Ireassured myself that, and I immediately felt relieved. How could I think such a thing?

"Yes...go on." I urged him.

"Two days ago...I imprinted, Bella." Jacob said, face still calm.

Oh...oh. "It's ok Jake, I can still love you." I said with a half hopeful voice, hoping he wasn't doing what I thought he was.

"No, Bella. When Sam said it was powerful...I didn't think it would be anything like this. I can't love you too, it would be wrong; I'm sorry." Jacob said, his tone unrepentant. My heart shattered into already broken pieces.

"Jake...please...please..." my plead was half strangled by the sobs threatening to come out any second now.

"Bella, this was wrong from the start, I shouldn't have used you this way. I'm no better than that bloodsucker, but imprinting..." Jake trailed off.

I was too broken to care about Jacob calling him names. "S-s-s-so you're l-leaving me?"

Jacob seemed to know this was coming, and his face softened just a little. "I have the divorce papers...I'm sorry. You can go back to the leech...I won't stop you." Jacob said softly.

No...of course you're not. Because you'd be too busy shoving your tongue down the slut's thro-

I shook my head, trying to clear the image.

"I'm sorry, Bella, I'm sorry." he repeated, staring at me pitifully.

"I-it's o-" that just brought a round of fresh tears. "B-b-but w-here...you..going...live?" I said incoherently, broken but completely understanding why he wanted to get rid of my so quickly. I was a burden, a burden to Jacob, a burden to him, a burden to everyone.

"Bella...I'm sorry, but I...sort of packed everything up already. I'm living with her now."

That explains why he was out so late...

I couldn't take it anymore. I collapsed on the floor and started sobbing.

I could see his hand reaching for me through the blur of my tears, but he stopped, dropped his arm, and walked away. I lay there, sobbing my heart out, until I grew tired and slept. Who cares about a little dirt when you don't want to live anymore?
