Can be read as any pairing....well one that involves Bella, but hell, every pairing has Bella in it somehow!

"I'll love you until the day I die," he whispered, pressing his lips to her scarred knuckles. His hot breath smelled of whiskey and other concoctions that she couldn't even identify.
Grunting to pull him up straighter with his arm around her shoulder, she managed to softly murmur, "Bet you say that to all the girls." But it still made her legs go numb, and her heart drop to the pit of her stomach.
"No," he grinned like a little child, "Only to the girls I really, really like." His smile disappears quickly as he struggled out of her grip and aimed his face to a nearby bush to rid the contents of his stomach. Groaning, he sat down on bench of the park and placed his head on the cool wood.
She sighed, landed down on the seat and positioned his head gently onto her lap. The soft cotton of her sweatpants made him smile in contentment with eyes still closed. There was nobody but them (why would there be at one in the morning?).
Great, she though as she pushed his bangs back slightly, I'm stuck here until morning I guess…no way I can drag him back if he's not willing to walk. At least it's a nice summer's night…
His voice jolted her out of her thoughts. "Bella," he whispered, eyes still closed, "I'm sorry. So sorry." He opened his eyes, and she can see the sorrow, pain, everything and nothing. "Please, I'm so sorry." he continued, pleading, reaching for her face and touching it gently. "Come back. Come back."
Her heart, twisting into a knot, throbbed in her chest. How dare he? How dare he do this to her? She choked back a sob and blinked back tears. Nodding, she gave a reassuring smile which he smiled back before removing his hand from her cheek and closing his eyes again. "I love you." He said and sleep overtook him once more.
And it took all her energy not to scream, not to throw him on the ground and leave, not to laugh uncontrollably.
Because her name isn't Bella.
