Chapter 1
Soulmates
Do they really exist?
I hope they do because that means I've found mine. It's you.
I hope they don't because you're not with me.
But that's my fault.
Because I let you go.
I let you walk away thinking you'd come back. That we'd find each other again. That it would be easy. As easy as falling in love with you. But it hasn't been. It's been years since I saw you last and the ache is still the same.
I wonder if you feel the same. I hope you do. It means you want me like I want you.
I hope you don't. I don't want you to feel this pain.
I love you.
I'm sorry I couldn't say it you. That you may never know how much I loved you. How much I love you still.
Are you happy? I can't deny that my life has been good but something always feels like its missing. A piece of me isn't complete. I wonder if it's you.
A/N: This story will be 30 short chapters total unless I add in anything else. It's all written from Bella's pov. It is a little sad but it does have a happy ending in my opinion.
