A/N: I know that this is short... but I have been having a crisis.. Yesterday i was actually freaking Charlotte out, because i threathened to delete the story. I was in a really, really bad mood... but know I'm in a better one. so here you have Chapter 10... maybe you'll hate us for it, maybe you won't, i really think that depends on how you see it.. But the short Chapter isn't Charlotte's fault, it's mine, so it's me you should be mad at... and just so all of you know, there will go some time before the next update will be here.. because we have finals coming up, so fanfiction really isn't highest on our list.. unfortuantly.. (;

10. It's Worth Dying For.
BPOV
I was gaping at him, with the mouth open and everything. Was this some sick joke, had I really ended in my own personal hell? Was Edward really standing in front of me? This could not be right, I was hallucinating or my filter was playing with, because this could not be the truth. This could not be right! I couldn't bring myself to look away from his face; it had been months since last time I had seen it. It was like finally seeing the sun after my long searching. He was here, in front of me, in Italy, ready to kill me. Was I missing something? I must be.
"Bella?" why did he sound so cheerful? It was so wrong, him standing here, seconds away from kill me, and then he was damn cheerful.
"Yeah," his smile just got wider. Charlotte was looking slightly worried, but the smiled was still on her face.
"Where is the vampire I'm going to kill? I'm glad Bella is here, but where is the one that I'm to kill?" he was now looking at Charlotte, he was smiling at her, but it wasn't just any kind of smile, it was that crooked one. It was my smile.
"Edward? She's standing right in front of you," Charlotte said while she gestured toward me, she actually looked at apologizing eyes. Edward looked at me and then charlotte and then he did something I really hadn't seen coming. He laughed out loud. And he kept on going. I just stood there, my feet rooted to the spot. After a long time with his hysterical laugh, he finally slowed down and soon it was just small chuckles.
"That was funny Char. But seriously, where is the vampire?" I couldn't look at the two of them. They looked like... like Edward and me, a couple of years ago... but in this picture the Bella was much prettier and this Edward looked so much happier, like he didn't have a care in the world, which he probably didn't. I could almost hear Charlotte roll her eyes at him, and when she sighed, it made me think of Esme, when Emmet had smashed yet another one of her crystal vases. The sigh of impatience and annoyance.
"She is the vampire you are going to kill," I turned my head to look at them once again. Edward snorted at her.
"Char. That joke is not funny anymore... it was only fun once.. where is the vampire?" she just shook her head at me.
"Do you really think I would joke about something this serious?" and there was that snort again.
"You did last month." She opened her mouth to say something, but thought better of it, and just stared at him. They were probably having one of the many secret conversations... it had always pissed me off. Because he always did that with Alice and... Oh my God. Alice?! She would be freaking out by now... getting all of them on a plane... she would... oh God no. This could not be happening. Why is this stupid shield never useful when I really need it? I heard Edward turn his head, so I automatically stopped thinking and stared back at him.
"You're here because you want them to kill you?" I was about to nod, but stopped myself, I nodded way too much for my own good.
"Yes," I said shakily. Why did he still have this effect on me?
"Really?" what was up with him today?
"Yeah... Really," why would I be here then? He was acting weird.
"Okay, so you came to Italy to get killed? Is that what you are saying?" I just nodded; I couldn't trust my voice anymore.
"Okay, then let's get on with this, so I can get out of here," I just stood there. Did he just say that? Did he mean that? Of course he did, he had the dark haired girl now.
"Edward?" It was a whisper, a horrified whisper. I looked at Charlotte, why did she look like she was in pain? She should be happy, getting the ex out of the way, having Edward all to herself. This was completely wrong.
"Charlotte?" he said with amusement in his voice, Charlotte glared at him, and he actually took a step backwards. She was like a mini Alice.
"Don't do that, don't make fun of everything. Don't kill her!" I frowned. What was up with this situation? I just wanted to die, why were they even discussing this?
"Char? You came with this job, and now you are saying that I should just give it up? That doesn't strike you as being weird?" she just shook her head at him. I agreed with Edward, what was going on.
"She's you wife!" She groaned at him.
"Ex wife," I came from both me and Edward at the same time. We both turned our head to look at each other. It really was over, and we both knew it.
"Ex wife, whatever… Can you seriously look me in the eyes and say that you would kill her and feel good about it?" at that he just smiled.
"Of course, I have you, don't I?" and he actually said that while he looked her in the eye. Charlotte sighed, and I felt the familiar pain come back, why now? ARGH! I turned my head and looked away from the two of them one more time. He was happy, he had found something new, someone ells to love and be with. He was happy, he really did deserve it.
"Edward…" and she stopped talking. I turned my head to look at them, but I really wished I hadn't, because there they stood, kissing each other. And it wasn't just soft kisses; it was a full blown make out scene. My legs turned into jelly, and I flopped down on the floor, the empty space hurting so much more than it used to. I thought they were going to stop, but no, no. they kept on going, and going. They were panting and moaning, and so many other things my empty space didn't feel comfortable about remembering or even thinking about. How could they do this in front of me? why not just kill he? That would have been the human thing to do, but then again, they were vampires after all. Why should they even be worried about my feelings, if they love each other they should be able to show it. I was making apologizes for them, and I knew that. Typically me. This went on… Until…
"Edward?! What the hell was that?" Charlotte yelled as she pushed him away from her. She pushed him so hard that he hit the wall. He was just smirking at her.
"Do I actually have to tell you what that was?" I clenched my fists together; if I had been human I would be bleeding right now. This was torture why couldn't they just kill me? I was still sitting on the floor, and I was pretty sure that Edward had completely forgotten I was even there.
"Edward you know what I mean! Why did you do that?" I shifted my gaze to the floor, looking after some distraction. This was too much, way too much for my little space.
"Because I felt like it, do I really need to have reason to kiss you?" he was amused and confused.
"Yes, you do need a reason, and it better be a good one 'Because I felt like it' isn't an explanation." He groaned.
"What? You want me to tell you I love you? Or that I want to spend the rest of eternity with you? Is that what you want me to say, because I will say it then. I will say it, and I will mean it," It's okay Bella. You knew this was going to happen, you knew that, so don't be surprised. Edward isn't a person who should be alone., and you never thought he was going to be.
"Don't… Don't say stuff like that, you don't mean it… you don't love me Edward!" I once again lifted my gaze to look at Charlotte. Her eyes were sad. Why were they sad? The living Adonis just told her indirectly that he loved her. She should be happy about that!
"I do, I do Charlotte.. I do l…" and I stopped him.
"Okay, you know what? You two can declare you love to each other another time. Right now you," and I pointed at Edward who was looking at me in annoyance, "Have a job to do, so when you are done killing me, you can go out with your girlfriend and say that you love her, Okay?" I didn't look at Charlotte; something told me that it would be a really bad idea. So I just looked at Edward who was nodding slowly at me.
"Yes, you are right, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. Now, are you ready for this?" I looked into his eyes. There was some emotion in his eyes, I couldn't really place. I looked wrong.
"Yeah… I'm ready," I couldn't say anything ells. I casted a glance at Charlotte and saw the terrified look on her face, it really made me want to comfort her, even if she did have my husband's heart, I looked back at Edward, and saw the look of concentration on his face.
I blinked and he stood in front of me. He leaned down so he could look me in the eye. "Don't worry it'll be over in a second," and with that he leaned down to my neck. I don't know what happened, but my shield expanded, and I closed my eyes waiting on the end.
A/N 2: Okay, so we have a couple of question we want you to answer.
1: What do you think should happen next?
2: Do you think we should kill Charlotte?
3: And what about Bella?
And as some of you might have noticed, we have a new profile picture. That's the new drawing Charlotte made. It's Char (the charaters) personallity, she's a mix of good and bad. AND... Charlotte wants to thank Rosa for coming up with the idea for the drawing.
