I will never be with you.
Edward's POV.
She was beautiful.
And nothing could ever describe how I felt for her. I had everything in life. Money, girls, success, luxury. But something that I lacked was love. Yes, I had many girlfriends whether it was in college or high school but I never truly loved any of them.
But with her, it was love at first sight.
And the most heartbreaking thing about it was that she belonged to someone else.
From the distance I was sitting, I couldn't hear their conversation but it definitely looked like they were fighting. She didn't deserve him. Heck, she didn't even deserve me but I wanted her.
I watched as she gave him one last look with tears in her eyes and walk out of the restaurant.
I saw her again a week later at a ballroom party. Thats good news but the bad news? She was with him.
And they looked so happy together that it hurt me to the extent where I was thinking of suicide.
She is so going to kill me one day.
I watched by the bar as she danced with him.
She looked beautiful.
"Bella Swan. Nice choice, Cullen." My date and best friend Rosalie said.
"That's her name?" I asked, stupidly.
"You've been checking her out for weeks and you don't know her name? Your such an idiot." She rolled her eyes and continued. "Aren't you gonna ask her out?"
"She's taken." I said with my voice slightly breaking.
"Well then get her, you idiot. Fight for her. You love her, don't you?"
"I do. I love her so much. But, Rosalie, she's happy with him. Can't you see? She loves him as much as I love her." A tear dropped from eye as I spoke.
"Well, atleast dance with her. Look, shes coming towards the bar. Go, come on Cullen! I know you can do it." And with that, Rosalie left.
"Good evening." Bella said.
"Uh ya, um, good evening." I stammered. Oh ya Cullen. Go screw it up. "Would you care for a dance?"
"A dance? I don't know..."
"Please? It's not everyday I get a chance to dance with beautiful ladies like you." God, I hoped she didn't get angry at my very bad attempt at flirting.
But she did opposite. She laughed. And oh God, did it sound like bells...
"Ok. If you insist."
I took her hand to lead her towards the dance floor and as soon as I touched her, I felt something I had never felt. I looked at Bella to see if she had felt it too. By the look of her face, I guessed she did.
James blunt's 'You're beautiful' started playing.
As the song went on and as we danced, I realized the lyrics were very similar to what I was going through.
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end...
We definitely did share a moment. It was amazing. I could see she felt the same too.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
Someone tapped me on the shoulder as we were dancing. I turned around and saw it was him.
"Jake." Bella muttered.
"Yeah hi. I'm sorry to disturb here but can I have my girl for a moment?" He asked with a smirk on his face. That bastard.
"Of course." I said as I let go of Bella. "It was nice dancing with you." I told her.
"You too." She gave me her beautiful smile.
"Lets go love." Jake said and he kissed her in front me.
Again, that bastard.
And with that they left.
Rosalie came behind me and asked, "So how was it?"
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
"It was... incredible. But the truth is Rose, she will never me mine."
