It took me a while to figure out how to handle the time-skip, or I would've updated yesterday.

Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of Twilight, or the plot in any way. If I did...well, you can probably figure out how the story might've gone.

Let The Sunshine In 2 Bitter Parting (BPOV)

~*~X~*~

That night I fell asleep against Jake's chest. I half expected him to be there when I woke up the following morning, but it came as no surprise that he wasn't.

I slowly stood up, and drug myself into the bathroom. I jumped when I looked in the mirror-I looked terrible! Well, that shouldn't surprise me since I just spent half the night crying…

After I finished my shower, I walked back into my room to find a few small boxes lying on my bed, as well as noticing that the window was slightly ajar. As I approached the boxes, I noticed a cream-colored envelope lying on my bed in front of the boxes. I slowly opened the envelope, and pulled out the note that it contained. It was from Alice.

Don't be sad Bella-this had to happen. -Alice

I slowly opened one of the boxes, to find it packed with summer clothes. The other box had winter clothes. I left the boxes on my bed, and went to my closet.

"I'm leaving now Bells!" I heard Charlie call from downstairs.

"Okay!" I called back as I quickly got dressed.

I ran down the stairs, almost tripping on the last step, and ran out to my truck.

It was going to be a long day at school today.

Edward wasn't at school, nor were Alice, Jasper, Emmett, or Rosalie. I knew better than to get my hopes up. I drug my feet through all my classes, not paying attention to any of the lectures they gave today. All I could focus on was why the Cullens would leave me.

September flowed into October, and October into November. November slid into December, and Autumn into Winter. Each night I had the same nightmare that I had the night he left me. December gave way to January, the old year left and the new year came.

The temporal winds blow-they never stop.

They're blind to your tears, your sorrow,

They're ignorant to your pain, your suffering.

They don't care how much it hurts,

They just keep on blowing.

For the first few weeks after that night, I would drop my dad off at Charlie's then go somewhere with Quil and Embry. I just couldn't face the fact that Bella was still in love with the person who dumped her in the forest like she was a broken toy.

I refused to enter their house, and I refused to tell my dad what was wrong. Dad and Charlie could both see that something was wrong between us, but they figured we just had a small argument that would heal over time.

We had no argument, and the wound will never completely heal. My heart can be pieced together, but the only one who can truly repair it is Bella.

I focused as hard as I could in school, but my mind always wandered back to Bella. I really tried not to let my depression effect me, but my grades were starting to drop and my dad was starting to notice.

I'd just gotten home from school, when my dad intercepted me at the door.

"Jacob, tell me what's going on between you and Bella."

"I already told you-it's nothing."

"If it really was nothing then you wouldn't be avoiding Bella and your grades wouldn't be slipping."

"It really is nothing dad."

"I'll believe you only if you see her the next time I go to Charlie's."

"Fine."

That weekend we went over to their place to see a football game. My dad reminded me of our deal before we got out of the car.

As soon as I walked into the door I saw Bella sitting on the stairs. Her eyes were red, her hair was a mess, and she just looked half-dead.

Dad went to join Charlie in the living room, while I sat down next to Bella. "You look terrible Bella."

"I know."

We talked for a while, before I helped Bella cook dinner. She gradually cheered up, but I saw her face fall again as dad and I left.

"See ya later?" I asked hopefully.

"Sure." She replied.

I couldn't help but notice her face brighten a little before I turned around.

This really took some hard thought.

I watched New Moon and Eclipse last night before I figured out how to handle the time-skip.

Please tell me what you think!
