Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight. But I do claim any characters that you do not recognize.
Ok I know I have other stories but I needed a break, and lately have been gravitating back to the Twilight genre. Right now I'm not a big fan of Bella as you will come to see, but I do love all of the other characters. Let me know what you think and if I should continue. So I will finish this note here so I don't bore you here is "From Whole to Broken".
Enjoy!
Prologue
"What do you want from me," he asks as if he is straining for control.
"I want you, Jake. I just want you," I say brokenly trying not to cry in front of him.
"You have me," he sighs and puts his hands on my shoulders.
"No, I don't," I say softly knowing he can hear me. I slowly pull away from him and turn away. "She has you and she always will."
"I don't know what you mean," he lies causing me to turn back and look at him.
"Sure Jake and unicorns exist," I say sarcastically as his jaw clenches. "But you know what? I'm going to do something for you she never has had the guts to do."
"What do you mean," he asks looking confused.
I slowly walk up to him not able to hold the tears back any longer. I look into his beautiful dark eyes and begin to say the hardest words I will ever say. As I stand in front of him I look down and take in a deep shuttering breath. I look into his eyes and say, "Have you ever heard the saying if "If you truly love someone you let them go" Jacob?"
"Addie," he says in a strangled voice. I reach up and place my finger over his mouth telling him I'm not finished.
"I love you with my whole heart, but I can't let you hurt me anymore. I know that if we continue on like this you will end up hating me more than you already do."
"I don't hate you Adelaide," he says taking my hand in his and holding it between us.
"But you resent me," I say and he looks away ashamed. I look back into his eyes and say in a firm tone, "You once told me that as your imprint you would be anything I need you to be. You would be a brother, friend, boyfriend, anything. Right," I ask.
"Yes," he whispers.
"Right now I need you to be," I begin to sob, "I need you to be a memory. What I am giving you that Bella never will is freedom," I say ripping myself away from him. I need space because if I stay close I won't be able to do what he needs. "I hope that one day you will find someone who can give you what you need that I can't. If that person is Bella I hope the two of you will be happy. You see Jake; you aren't the only one concerned about the happiness of your supposed soul mate. I worry and have tried to make you happy. The only thing I can say to ensure yourhappiness is the only way for me to be happy is for me to not see you again."
He just stares at me in shock for a moment. I realize that he isn't going to say anything; he isn't going to come after me, so I turn and begin to walk away. As I get further and further away I begin to feel this unbearable pain in my chest. It gets worse and worse, but I know I can live with it. If Jake is happy then this pain I feel will be worth it.
