Because I love her-

The rain pounded a steady rhythm on the ground. The gloom settling into her heart and the cold burrowed into her soulless state. As she cried tearless sobs, I could only hold her. Her not being there for him broke her heart. Her heart which held mine was for her to do whatever she wanted. She could shatter it to a million pieces or smash it with her hand. But she chose to cherish it, to love it. To become one with me. To give up her soul to be with me for eternity. But if her soul would've still been there, it would've been broken to shattered pieces of glass.

She laid her head on my chest as another round of sobs ripped through her. I gently rubbed circles onto her back, in hope that it would soothe her. But so far, that hope was in vain.

I looked back at the tombstone which marked the grave of the person she loved. The person that loved her back.

Charlie Swan

A great citizen,

and a loving father.

It was too much for her to take. I was beginning to wonder if she regretted the decision she made. If she had chosen differently, I would've respected her decision. I would never stop loving her, but if she was happy, it was enough.

Why had I been so selfish to take her away from her only father? The time they would've spent together would no doubt make this day harder to take, but what about those lost times when they could've been together. My selfishness had destroyed her happiness. If she wanted to go, she could.

I was willing to do anything to make her happy and to make her smile again. To see the excitement and laughter fill her now topaz eyes. I would give her the world. She has already gotten my heart, but that's not enough. I want to give her everything that I can offer. I would give my dead life. Give up everything for her happiness. But I am too selfish. If she left, I would die again. But if she was happy, that was enough.

Because I love her.

Edward thinks he's so selfish, but he's not. Well, in a way he isn't. He stubborn though. Hah. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. It was just an idea I had. Well, bye bye for now.
