The Cullen Chronicles
The 87 year old Bella laid in a hospital bed holding the hand of her 70 year lover. Her skin sagged while his was firm and strong. She smiled warmly, dizzy from his dazzling.
He knew he was "dazzling" her, he was trying to make her comfortable for the last minutes of her life. He could hear her heart start to slow and her breathing go shallow.
"Edward?" She whispered, her voice deeper and softer from when she was 17.
"Yes, love?" He whispered back, fighting back the tears that pushed his eyes.
"I love you, I always will." She smiled weakly and the light faded from her eyes.
He leaned down and kissed her on the forehead for the last time. He glanced at her and escaped through the window, to never return. The doctor entered after hearing the machines go off trying to revive the 87 year old. The attempts were futile and Bella Swan passed away on September 19.
Sorry for the short chapter but more is to come. Just need to set the stage as we call it in Theatre!
