Chapter 3

Losing Battles

The past few days have been really tense, especially since the rest of the Cullen's went hunting, while Edward stayed. Edward has been really distant and stoned-face. He wouldn't even give me a kiss or hold my hand anymore. I hope we get over this rough patch so we can just go back to the way we were. Before Jasper lost control everything was perfect, but since that night its been like we hardly knew each other.

"Ronnie, let's go back to your house. I need to talk to you." Edward said as we headed for the parking lot.

This doesn't sound too good. "Um. Okay."

The drive back to my house was tense and awkward especially since no one talked.

I parked my truck in front of my house and got out slowly, delaying the important thing he wanted to tell me so badly. Edward walked over to me stone-faced still. "Let's go for a walk." Before I could answer he started off towards the path in the woods next to my house. I followed him, not knowing what to do.

When we finally stopped, we were far enough into the woods just so you couldn't see my house. Edward turned to face me looking at me.

"We're leaving Portland." Edward stated.

My brow crinkled, confused. "What? Why?" he didn't answer. "What Jasper did wasn't his fault, Edward. Please."

He clenched his teeth. "It just made me realize how much you don't belong in my world, Ronnie."

My temper flared and I stood my ground. "You can make me apart of your world, Edward! And don't even say that you don't want to take away my soul, because you already have it!"

"This isn't about your soul. I just don't want you to be in my life." He said looking angry and pained.

"You promised you'd stay." I said simply. My walls were already crumbling down and tears brimmed in my eyes. "What we had-have doesn't mean anything to you?" I asked in disbelief.

"I just wasted my time here. I knew it would never work out."

"You don't care about me?" I asked, a tear slipping down my cheek. "You don't love me?"

"No." I inhaled a sharp breath and wiped the tear away roughly.

"Where's Alice, everyone?" I asked hoping at least I would have someone to depend on.

"They already left." I looked at his face knowing he was telling the truth. "This will be the last time you'll ever see me. It will be like I never existed." Edward cupped my cheek and placed kiss on my forehead. "Goodbye, Ronnie."

Then he walked away, and soon turned into a blur and disappeared into the trees.

"No! Edward!" I yelled walking in the direction he went. "Please! I need you!" I kept on walking, but knowing I was fighting a losing battle.

Before I knew it, the sun set and night set in. I kept walking, almost in a daze. The one line he said kept repeating in my head. 'It will be like I never existed.'

I didn't see the tree root sticking up from the ground, and fell hard on my stomach. The pain I felt on my ribs was like a pinch compared to the huge pain I felt in my chest where my heart used to be. I couldn't even stand up, I was so exhausted both physically and emotionally. I just couldn't believe Edw-he left. Even thinking his name hurt. My eyes closed slowly, but not before seeing too big glowing eyes in the nearby bush. Who cares though? Death would surely be better than this pain I felt now.

The familiar hard ground soon turned into something very warm. My eyes flickered and looked up to see someone who was obviously Quileute caring me. He noticed I was awake and looked down at me.

"Veronica, I'm Sam Uley. Are you hurt?" He asked, jogging now.

I could barely speak because my throat still burned from screaming for Edw-him. I just ignored him and closed my eyes.

Everything felt like I was in a daze. The police cars, the people with flashlights, and my family with worried expressions.

I was soon carried into my house, my family and a few other people following me, but I could care less.

Sam-what's his face set me down on the couch and stood back as someone kneeled next to me. He started checking me for any injuries, but I hardly noticed him and the many people asking questions, then my dad telling them to leave and thanking them for helping with the search party. I just stared at the white ceiling and tried my hardest not to think about-

White.

Ceiling.

Blank.

Gone.

Forever.

Doesn't .

Love.

Me.

Empty.

Nothing mattered anymore. Nothing. No one could help me. I was broken. My heart ripped viciously out of my chest and left a huge, big, empty hole. How could I misjudge everything he said to me. He must be lying, my truth-meter is hardly wrong. I guess that's another reason for me being broken. I cant even tell from what's true and what's real. I'm empty, broken without my heart and he has it.
