I had this idea that waiting wouldn't be too bad. But I hated it. I hated the fact that every day was emptier than the last. I wake up after a fitful sleep filled with nightmares and waking up with a pillow over my face so I wouldn't disturb my father. I'd go to school and look for him or even his family. I'd look on the streets for his car. I'd get myself hurt to see his father at the hospital, but no they were all gone. And now after I had given up hope, I see his dad's car. After I launch myself off the side of a cliff. After I crash into the water and see the vampire of my nightmares. After I crash into rocks with white foam. After I get saved by my best friend. After he tells me he loves me. After I let go of him. After I decide to give in. After my dad's best friend dies. After I get attacked by Victoria. After Victoria gets killed by my boyfriend. After I grow up, and actually attend classes. After I graduate. Right before I say, "I do" to my best friend. Then, I look away and look into his eyes and say, "I do" without hesitating. Maybe he was right, or maybe not, but I will never know. Because I am happy to grow old. And I will grow old. Because I chose Jacob instead of Edward.
