Chapter Two

Bella

E: Tell me to come back.

B: From the corner?

E: Yes.

B: No.

E: Then come to me.

I stare down my street, still stare, Edward's car a black blur through my tears.

He's just sitting at the stop sign.

Goodbye was hard...

So hard...

But he left.

He let go.

But now he won't.

Won't keep going.

Why is he making this so much harder?

He knows I wanted to go.

That I wish I could...

And he knows why I can't.

Or let him stay.

E: Please?

B: I can't come with you.

E: I know. But I need to see that you can come to me. That you will.

I promised him I would.

As soon as I could.

Wherever he was.

Anywhere...

No matter how far.

Wherever his dreams took him.

I'd go.

E: Please come to me, Bella.

And I can't deny him now.

I won't.

He needs to see.

While his eyes are still open.

So I run...

And because I'm me...

I trip.

Fall.

And because he's him...

He comes running.

Leaves his car running at the corner as he runs to me.

Picks me up.

"Are you okay?"

"I would have gotten up and kept going."

"I know."

"Did you see?"

"Yeah, I saw. I saw you come running. And I saw you fall for me."

"Again."

"I liked it better the first time. When you fell for me."

"So did my knees."

"I love your knees."

"I love you."

"I love you too, Bella. So much."

"I promise I'll come, Edward."

"I believe you."

"Don't forget."

"Never."
