Pain

by magnificentX

The shortest thing I think I've ever written. I was thinking about Bella's lowest points without Edward, during New Moon, and came up with this.

I slammed my foot on the breaks.

My truck came to a complete stop.

Searing tears spilled over, streaking my face.

I screamed.

"Damn it, Edward! I need you!" The words came out with such wrath, such angst, I scared myself.

"I need you…" I said again, whispering softly to no one.

I was still alone, he still didn't want me.

I looked out the window, coming home from Jacob's was always my lowest point. No one was there to help me pretend my life was worth living. Without him, everything hurt.

The tears still came, I curled myself up in the seat letting the darkness of the night, and my heart, blend together, becoming one big reminder of my emptiness.

I didn't blame him… I couldn't.

I blamed myself… For thinking he could ever love me.
