AN. My Alternate version of New Moon. It has always slightly bugged me how Bella acted when Edward left, I mean, I understand why she was like that, it makes sense, but I can't help but not like it.

Please Don't Leave Me

BPOV

"Alright, lets talk." I said, sounding braver than I felt. I had my suspicions about why Edward was acting the way he was, but I knew all the options I had presented myself with, were unexceptable. I would not live through them. Maybe I was just being paranoid.

Edward led me a few feet into the forest, and turned, blocking my path. Why were we here? He had long before made me promise that I would stay out of the woods, and now he was leading me into them? Maybe it was because he was with me...

"Bella we're leaving." What?!? I was going with him. Wasn't I? His eyes were cold, uncaring. Yet somehow even as hard as ice, his eyes still smoldered, burning me from the inside out.

Da da da da, da da da da
Da da da da-da da

"Why?" I said simply. "You know very well that anyone will believe whatever you want them to. Even a lie." He knew I was right. If they said they were a certain age, everyone would believe them, no matter how unbelievable the lie was.

"Bella, I'm not right for you, I refuse to take your soul from you, and it's dangerous for you to be near me when your human." At the word soul, I snapped. I wasn't going to let this happen, and he was not going to leave me because of some stupid conversation that we had held hundreds of times previously.

"Have you ever considered that your worth it?!? That I love you enough that I'm willing to give up everything?!? Even if you are right and vampires don't have souls, I would be willing to give it up for you! I don't care anymore! Take it, it's already yours Edward!" I screamed.

I don't know if I can yell any louder
How many time I've kicked you outta here?
Or said something insulting?
Da da da da-da
I can be so mean when I wanna be
I am capable of really anything
I can cut you into pieces
But my heart is... broken

He seemed mildly shocked that I had yelled at him, but I didn't care. I wouldn't let him break my heart. "Bella. I won't let that happen. You don't know what the first decade is like. I won't put you through that."

That was it. "Shut up! Shut up about my humanity already! Your worth it, and I would be willing to go through it for you, so just drop it!" I yelled, stepping closer to him. I knew the volume of my voice was overwhelming for him with his vampire hearing, but I truly didn't care.

His eyes widened. He was surprised. I had never before raised my voice or said any negative thing to him, let alone telling him to shut up. He chuckled almost silently. How dare he?!? I was mad as hell, and he was laughing at me?!? That arrogant, pigheaded... wait, this is Edward...

Da da da-da da
Please don't leave me
Please don't leave me
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this
Please, don't leave me

"Bella, where I'm going, it's not the place for you." He said, his eyes once again hardening, solidifying from the previous molten gold.

"Where you are is the place for me, Edward! Don't try to deny what you already know! I love you, Edward, and I won't let you leave! You can't decide what's right for me when you don't even know what's right for yourself! Just stop arguing with me and stay in Forks!" I put my hands on his chest, almost as though I was going to push him away, though I knew I never could.

He shook his head slightly, and it was almost as though I could see into his mind. He couldn't believe how stubborn I could truly be.

How did I become so obnoxious?
What is it with you that makes me act like this?
I've never been this nasty
Can't you tell that this is all just a contest?
The one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest
But baby I don't mean it
I mean it, I promise

He twisted his previous words, making it harder for me to argue. "Bella, your not right for me." Those simple words though strengthening my anger, shattered my heart. For the briefest instant, I knew the pain flickered across my face. He saw it.

"Then why did you save me? Why did you place yourself in my life, when you didn't love me?! Was it all just some game to you then?!? Was that what it was?!? I thought you really loved me! But I was wrong, wasn't I? You just wanted to see how long you could play with the little human girl before you got bored again, then you'd break her heart!"

"I understand, and I'm not falling for it anymore! I love you, but I can't take it. If your just going to play with my emotions I can't trust you! Tell me Edward, how can you love someone you can't trust?" My voice broke on the last word, and an emotion passed over his face, lasting long enough for me to see, yet not identify.

Da da da-da da
Please don't leave me
Da da da-da da
Please don't leave me
Da da da-da da
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this
Please, don't leave me

I put one hand on Edward's arm, and gently shoved him out of the way. Gratefully he took the hint. I moved past him, and then ran down the path, desperately wiping the tears from my eyes.

Within a second, Edward had moved himself in front of me. We were much deeper in know, and he wasn't going to let me go any farther. The wind had shifted his hair, fanning it down and across his eyes. His eyes were deep, intense. I had never seen him look more beautiful.

When he did leave, I didn't know what I would do without him. He had stuck with me through all of it. He had been my confort, and my source to go to when all was awry. He was the only one that would be able to help me when he left, and the purpose would be destroyed.

I forgot to say out loud how beautiful you really are to me
I can't be without, you're my perfect little punching bag
And I need you, I'm sorry.

"Bella..." Edward said, a deep emotion stirring in the topaz of his eyes. I closed my eyes, and spun slightly, pressing my back to the closest tree. I couldn't look into his eyes. If I did, the fire that was burning within me, the anger, would die.

"Bella, you have to understand. I still care for you in a way, but I don't think it's the same anymore. I want you to be safe and happy, but I think we would be better off apart." Every word rang with sincerity. When I opened my eyes, his eyes were filled with clues that led me to the words he had spoken, yet I didnt' trust them. They were too wide, too innocent, too believable.

My voice was stronger now that the tears had stopped, but I kept my voice at a whisper, afraid that it would crack. "What if I don't want to understand? What if I don't want to be apart? What if I want you to want me?" I asked, my voice getting thick at the last question.

Da da da da, da da da da
Da da da da-da da
Please, please don't leave me

"Then I'm sorry. I can't change anything. The wheels have already been set in motion, and I can't bring my family back. Nor would I." It all clicked into place. They were gone. All of them. I wasn't going to see Alice, Jasper, Carlisle, Esme, Emmett, or even Rosalie again, and it struck me on some unknown level. This was just adding insult to injury.

My eyes flew closed once more, and Edward stepped closer. "So I guess this is goodbye." I whispered.

"Goodbye Bella. Take care of yourself." He whispered. There was a light unnatural breeze. My eyes opened. The leaves of a small vine maple shuddered with the gentle wind of his passage. He was gone.

Baby please don't leave me
No, don't leave me
Please don't leave me no no no
You say I don't need you but it's always gonna come right back,
It's gonna come right back to this.
Please, don't leave me.
No.
No, don't leave me
Please don't leave me, oh no no no.
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this

I turned, and walked deeper into the forest, Once again finding the small seat that I had once taken while pondering the possibilities of Edward being a vampire. I sat here once again, though this time in anger and despair. I tilted my head back, leaning it against the tree trunk, and let out one scream. I knew he heard me.

As his name carried on the wind, I tried to let go. Let the memories disappear as quickly as the echo of my scream had. I couldn't. The anger got more powerful, and the clues that I had previously believed to be confirmation, I now saw as a denial. He was lying to me, and I wouldn't allow him to continue. I would give him his lie for now, but I would learn the truth.

For now, I let the pain wash over me, drowning me in its shallow depths. Only my upcoming adventure consoled me. Edward had won this battle, but he would not win the war. With that last thought on my mind, the world went black.

Please don't leave me

AN. So, how did you like it? I enjoyed it, and trust me, this with be kind of a drama/adventure/romance/angst/hurt-comfort story, but for now I'm putting it under adventure/drama. By the way, each of the chapters in the story will be entitled, and have a song, from Pink in them. Mostly from her new Cd Funhouse.

Song Disclaimer- Please Don't Leave Me belongs to the amazing singer Pink, and I have no claim on it whatsoever.
