First off, this is a Fanfiction from New Moon...I have it to where instead of Bella going to Italy to get Edward back, she stays with Jacob and Edward eventually returns and tries to win Bella back. This may also be like the original book but I have put in my own twists to the story line. I hope you enjoy it and RATE AND COMMENT!!! Thanks!!!
The Begining Of Heatbreak
Bella's POV
The day that I thought my life was over, it had only begun. But like always I am getting ahead of myself and am skipping to where you are confused. Great. Ok, let's take this back a few months to when Edward and I were still together...
"Edward, why are you taking me so far into the woods? If you wanted to go somewhere private, you should take me to our meadow." That was the first thing anyone of us had said to each other the whole trip into the thick woods next to Charlie's house. But somehow, it was still on the path back to Charlie's house. The whole way here I didnt have a good feeling about this trip. If it was like any other trip Edward and I had taken, the trip would've been talking and laughing; maybe even arguing(we only did this when we began talking about him changing me sooner than he had planned. Which was never).But this trip was different, more awkward, more silient, and that's what scared that involved Edward not talking to me for big amounts of time scared me. And this was one of those times.
There was still no answer from Edward. It had been 10 minutes since I'd said anything. Finally, after another 15 minutes, Edward stopped. Where he stopped looked like a place in my nightmares. There was nothing around us but trees and a little smushed-down grass which was the path that Edward and I had just came from. The thing that really did me in about the spookyness was that it was almost sundown and since there was only trees around that almost covered the entire sky, it made it look almost as if it was midnight. And, there was an old fallen down tree that was right through the center of the clearing in which we stood.
Edward turned to look at me. It was the first time he had this whole time. The expression on his god-like face frightened me. It was not a look I had seen him wear before. It was a saddened look mixed with anger,rage,sorrow and unhappiness, if that is even possible. But with Edward, anything was possible. In my book at least.
"Bella," he began. The way he said it made it sound like he was dissappointed in me.",what happened with Jasper was something that was one hundred precent preventable, and I should've been there to save you instead, I helped you too late."
Edward was refering to what had happened at my last birthday. When I had accidentally scliced open my finger from a simple paper cut, Jasper let his senses take control and I, of course, ended up hurt with Carlilse stiching up my arm when I got cut by glass.
"You didn't help me too late." I protested. He was trying to be kind again. "What happened with Jasper was an accident. Remember that Edward. It wasnt your fault." I said putting my hands on the sides of his face that way he was looking right into my eyes.
He pulled away from me and turned around. I guess what he was about to say was something that would be painful for him.
"Yes it was my fault. I should've known that he would've done this. I read his mind. I knew it was coming, and I didn't protect you properly. Bella, I love you and I always will love you. But, after what happened with James and now Jasper, I have hurt you to much. So, this is the last time you will ever see me. This is what's best for us. I don't know where I'm going, but all I know is that you'll be safe and away from me. I love you Bella, but this is something I have to do."
Those were the last words Edward Cullen said to me. He kissed me quickly on the head and took off at vampire speed.
The woods around me started spinning. My head was spinning as well. My breathing sped up, my heart started pounding in my chest. Then, I collasped. I was lying on the wood's floor. Hyperventalating, heart pounding. It had to be a dream. But I was blinking, of course, and I felt a pain inside me that I've never felt before. I had to get up. I had to get out of here. I got up. I stumbled. I fell and I think that I cut my knees and scraped up my hands as well. I could see Charlie's house. But I couldn't make it. I fell again and stayed right where I was. It was late in the afternoon and I could tell that it was because I began shivering. I didn't lknow if i was shivering from the coldness or the shock. Then, everything went black and I fell asleep.
"Bella? Bella? Are you awake? Bella?" Someone was shaking me to wake me up. My eyes fluttered open. There standing over me was Jacob Black. A person that I havent seen in what seemed like years.
"Jake?" I asked. Him being here didn't seem possible.
"Yeah, Bella. I'm here."
"What are you doing here?"
"My dad and I came to watch the Mariners. But we saw Charlie wasn't home so we looked for you. I turned around and saw you here. What happened to you?" Jake asked. His eyes were wide with curiosity.
"Edward wanted to talk to me...Then he left. He said that he hasn't done good enough protecting me. That if he left I'd be safer. So after that happened, he left and I started coming back. Then I guess this was as far as I got before I fell asleep." I explained. The whole time I did Jacob sat there nodding in agreement.
"I'm so sorry Bella," He said then he helped me up.", On the bright side you are now apart of nature." He said laughing.
"Whadda mean Jake?" I asked. He was still laughing.
"You should see you hair. It's all covered in leaves, dirt, and moss. And, your face has dirt all over it." After he finished his sentence he stopped laughing.
I started cleaning out my hair. But I was unsecessful. I was beyond just a quick pick out. I needed a shower. After giving up, and Jake laughing a few more times which just made me grimmace, I noticed something. It wasn't about me, it was about Jacob. The old Jacob Black I knew was still there but he looked different.
"Jake," I asked. ",why did you cut your hair?"
"Oh, ummm, I thought it got to long. Plus I thought I'd give a new look a try."
"Oh. It looks...nice." Nice. That was all I could say? But I wasn't worried about what I said, I was more worried about what Jacob had said. He seemed like he made what he said up right on the spot. I was't buying what he said. I knew there was something more. Something deeper as to why he did it. And I planned to figure it out whether Jacob Black like's it or not.
