Chapter 10: If This Was A Movie
"Come back, come back, come back to me, like you would, you would, if this was a movie. Stand in the rain outside till I came out."
-Taylor Swift
It's pouring rain here in Forks, like usual. It's been a whole thirty years since you left. Charlie's death anniversary is coming up in three weeks. I don't know how I've survived this long without you.
I know for a fact that you're going to be down here for Charlie. I feel bad for using Charlie as an excuse to see you again. Don't get me wrong, I want to pay my respects to him, but I want to see you more. Rhia is encouraging me to go visit him.
"What if I run into Bella?" I asked her. She shrugged and said, "Oh well, it's been 30 years. I'm sure you guys are over each other. Besides, you have Mara, don't you?"
I could really kill Rhia sometimes. She sounded so condescending, like she doesn't believe my relationship with Mara is real, despite the fact that I've asked Mara to marry me. We've been together for almost two years. I thought it was about time I actually settled down.
Then why is it that I still want to see you? There's this irrational part of me that still wishes we would get back together. I walked by your old house yesterday. I remembered all of the memories we made together there. It was where you gave me the guitar that I still treasure today. It was where your neighbor caught us making out. I remembered how you reacted when Charlie met me for the first time.
I still miss you so much.
I don't think I could ever stop loving you. If this was a movie, you and I would have gotten back together already. You would fight Mara to the end just so that you could have me back.
Wishful thinking can kill a guy. I do actually love Mara, though. She helped me pick up the pieces that you left behind. She's always so patient and loving. She knows about the girl that broke my heart. She just doesn't know that it's you necessarily.
She does know about a Bella Roux, though. The girl that's close to everyone's heart. The girl that Cassandra adopted, but wanted to live on her own. At least, that's what the family told her.
She hopes to meet you someday. It doesn't help that you're all the family ever talks about. It's like they want Mara to know that she can never replace you.
Although I hate them for it, I'm glad they haven't stopped loving you either.
Well, I've finally written on the last page of this notebook. How fitting. I finished it just around the same time I realized that I've finally moved on.
I'm done writing to you, Bella. It's helped me a lot. I don't know where I would be now if it weren't for you. Even though it wasn't really you, in some way, I still felt like it was.
Adieu, Bella.
Maybe we'll see each other. Maybe we won't.
All I know is that you'll be here in three weeks. You're finally going to be within my reach. I've waited for this moment for so long. Now that it's here, I don't know what to do.
After everything I've been through, there's only one thing that I know.
I still love you.
Oh, shit. So how's that for a last chapter? Muahahaha, cliff hangers rock!

And this is a short sneak peak of what the sequel entails:
"Come on, Bella!" Mandy yelled.
My eyes snapped open and I immediately got out of bed. I walked into my bathroom and sighed when I saw my reflection in the mirror.
Once again, my eyes were red and swollen and my face was incredibly pale. I rested my forehead against the mirror and exhaled slowly.
I turned on the sink and washed my face. It's been thirty years, Bella. Get over it! Besides, it was your own fault.
I bit my lip angrily and pounded the granite counter.
Whoo! I'm so excited to share the sequel with you guys. March 15 is my target date, but who knows, I just might bump up the date, depending on how many REVIEWS you guys leave me for this chapter.
So, what are you waiting for? REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!
I'll see you guys soon!
