Edward reached for my hand. The cool touch of his fingers made me shiver slightly. His cold marble fingers stoked the back of my hand.

"Bella, please?" he tried again.

I couldn't bring myself to look up from where our hands met. My eyes slowly drifted up his gorgeous body. I close my eyes and took a deep breath. Just as I opened my eyes Poppy began to cry.

"I-I need to check-ck Poppy." I insisted as I pulled my hand away. I jogged over to Edward's car and swung the back door open.

"Bella," Edward called my name "please, just believe that I have gone out of my mind."

I tried to ignore Edward's broken words.

"Shh, Poppy, Mummy's here." I hushed Poppy as I picked her up into my arms.

"Bella, I will take you home now, I'm sorry." Edward's velvety voice was behind me. "Sorry." He said again as he climbed into the car. I strapped Poppy back into the back seat. Then walked around to the passenger seat, I climbed back into his wonderful scented car.

We were back on the main road when I decided to speak.

"Edward, I really love you!" I exclaimed dully.

"So why aren't you with me?" he asked in a confused, irritated voice.

"I don't want to lose my Jacob," I moaned, "I love him too." He clutched tightly on to the steering wheel.

"Bella, please, I know we can work this out."

"I don't want anything that will make me lose Jacob." I reminded him.

Edward turned down my road. Then came to a halt and cut the engine outside of my house. I climbed out of the car, and pulled the back door open to reveal Poppy's little giggling face.

I unstrapped her out of the chair.

"Bella, please think about it." Were the last words he said before he pulled away from the kerb and drove off down the street. Then I saw Jacob's car parked in the driveway.

"Oh Poppy, daddy's already home, quickly now." I sung to poppy as I ran across the road. I opened the white garden gate and walked up the pathway.

JACOB;

"Bella, is that you?" I shouted as the door slammed shut.

"Yes." Her voice shouted back. Poppy came running into the family room and jumped on the couch next to me.

"Daddy!" she shrieked as she settled in between my legs. I placed the beer I had held down onto the table next to the couch.

"Hello, Sweetie." I sung to her in delight, she seemed to like it when I sung.

"Jake, what would you like for tea?"

"Anything." I muttered back.
