Give Me A Reason:
By JME
B & E are your typical high school sweethearts. Things change their senior year in College when Bella becomes pregnant and the two struggle to make ends meet. She can't take the pressure and disappears for 4 years leaving their child and Edward behind. What will she come back to after abandoning her family? Is it enough to stay or will she abandon?
I own nothing but the story line.
Prologue: The fear, the self doubt, the abandonment.

Is this really where I see my life going and is this really what I want for my life? Is it wrong to feel like leaving the situation I helped create? For the lousy life of me I cannot disregard the fight building up in me to just leave.
I wanted more for myself, more for my relationship and more for my child. It's no longer just me I have to worry about, or Edward. We created a life together, and that innocent life never asked to be here. It's up to us to build and shape a life worth living for, for him/her. That doesn't seem like a hard thing to do, but for two young college students who have no clue as to what to do? Well that's a different story my peers.
I only want to do what's best. I only want what is best for my unborn child. If leaving is the best option for his/her upbringing then so be it. Not even Edward could keep me from making this decision. It's not that I don't love him, because I do, I really do. There is and will never be another man for me like he is.
Do I really want this? No not really, but what do you expect from a woman who's lied about her entire life, for her entire life? A woman like me doesn't deserve those who are in my life. No I am left with the only option that's doing right by those I am dragging along with me. I have to leave them all, and I have to do it after that baby is born.
The question is, can I really do it?
(A/N) This idea came to me randomly last night via dream. Only difference was that it was more personal, and characters were not those of the ones written here. The idea won't leave my head, so here it is. Sorry it's short but hey, gotta leave ya hanging to spark that curiosity and need for more. So please, tell me what you think because your encouragement makes me want to continue, plus I'm flying solo on all this.
Just… be gentle ;)
