"You don't seem excited about getting married, Bella"
"I'm not."
"Is it Edward, or the wedding, or…?"
"Meh." I shrug, trying to shake off Rosalie's persistent line of questioning.
"Seriously Bella, you don't seem to give a shit so why the fuck are you marrying that prick?" Rose is pissed now, she doesn't understand my ambivalence.
"Rose, he won't change me unless we're married. If he doesn't change me, the Volturi will come and we will all die. Sue me if I'm not excited about marrying an asshole to save your life."
"Shit." She gets it.
I have no choice.
Edward really has no sense of responsibility for his actions, this is one of the things that bugs me about canon. He gets involved with Bella even though he knows the risks to himself, his family and her. Then he abandons her, while a psycho is after her, then he tries to isolate her from the people who would protect her, forces her into a marriage she doesn't really want, refuses to compromise, and then calls his unborn child a monster. I mean seriously Eddie. This is all about Bella taking responsibility for Edward's actions.
