1 The End
This had to be the worst day of my 109 years as a vampire. I don't know how I can do it, break her heart and mine. It has to be done no matter if I want it to or not. All night I worried about today, hoping she won't buy my lies and I can stay. If I love her I will let her go, for this is what is best for Bella. I had a flashback to the day Bella was in the Phoenix general hospital as I was driving the Volvo into Forks High school's parking lot. I would stay in Forks, Bella. Or somewhere like it. Someplace where I couldn't hurt you anymore. I remembered telling her seeing the look in her eyes killed me. I would rather be torn in half and burned then to see in her eyes today.
I am going to break my word today, I'm not going anywhere. I'll be right here as long as you need me. This is Bella I am talking about. When we go away she could get hurt. She will need me. Won't she? If vampires aren't in Forks then nothing will touch her. She can grow old, get married and have kids.
I don't seem to be strong enough to stay away from you, so I suppose that you'll get your way… whether it kills you or not. It can't kill her, and if I am not strong enough it will. I can't let that happen. I'll be the first to admit that I have no experience with relationships. But it just seems logical… a man and woman have to be somewhat equal… as in, one of them can't always be swooping in and saving the other one. They have to save each other equally. I remember her saying and she did save me in so many ways but one can't always be swooping down and saving the other well, this is me saving her. School was too quickly today; my hours with her were number now. I was in my car on my way to the Swan household driving a slow speed for once, 10 mph to make sure I took my time.
When I finally got to her I walk at human speed, looking into her worried little eyes. This is going to be hard. I put on my poker face and slid my hand in hers. "I was hoping you would take a walk with me." I said with no feeling in my voice as I walked her to the woods, the one place I told her not to go without me and I was dumping her there. knowing without a doubt that she would stay there till someone or something picked her put off the cold, hard. ground.
