Bella POV

I had gotten back to my room, put on a new shirt, and when I turn around, BAM! He's there. Knocking the wind out of me by his god-like beauty. My personal miracle.

Edward, my Edward.

"Edward" I breathed, both in happiness and agony. This was the worst thing I could imagine. It was going to hurt do much tomorrow. Tomorrow. When I have to return to Jacob. I shuddered at the thought, and Edward hurried to my side.

He grabbed me and held me to his chest, as if his life depended on it.

"I'm so, so sorry I left you." He said it with such honesty, such urgency, I was almost convinced it was all real. I held on to this beautiful dream with all my strength, crying into his chest.

"Shhh, Bella, shhh. It's all right. I know what happened. You're okay. Everything's okay." He started to rock me gently, and with a sudden realization, I saw the truth.

If this was a dream, Jacob never would have raped me.

If this was an illusion, Edward wouldn't be able to hold me this tight.

"Oh my God! Oh my God, you're really here!"

"Of course I am. Bella, why would you think differently?" He sat down on the bed and pulled me onto his lap, kissing away the tears. "Bella, you didn't honestly believe what I said that day, did you?"

"Of course I did! We never made sense! You're way to perfect for me… I never deserved you." My voice broke at the end as I felt despair wash over me.

Edward grabbed my face with both hands and turned me to face him.

"Bella, don't you dare think like that! I only left to protect you! You need to understand! I couldn't bear to put you in danger any longer. I never would have left if I knew this would happen. You are the most important thing to me!" And then he kissed me. He kissed me hard, with all the emotion he had and I kissed back just as eagerly.

He ran his tongue over my bottom lip, something he had never allowed. I granted him entrance and our tongues battled for dominance (I know they can't kiss like that what with his teeth being sharp and covered in venom, but go with me here). He ran his hand down my arm, and down my ribs. When his hand touched the black bruise on my ribs, I gasped and cringed away in pain.

"Bella, what's wrong?" I looked into his eyes, seeing nothing but concern. Considering the fat that he already knew what had happened, and knowing I couldn't hide it forever, I grabbed the hem of my t-shirt.

I pulled my shirt up, stopping at the top of the bruise and watched his reaction as he looked at the wound.

He stared at it, then he looked at my face, his eyes black with rage.

"I'll kill him, I swear to you. He never should have done this."

With that, he pulled me into his arms, rocking me in his arms, kissing any part of me he could reach, and told me he would never leave me again.

Not for anything.

Okay, I promise the Fight is in the next chapter!! But I'm not updating until I get at least 20 reviews, okay?! At the time that I'm writing this, there are 754 views on my story, and only 15 reviews.
