I do not own anything Twilight...
While I cried on my bedroom floor I heard knocks on my door but ignored them. The first I heard was Edward and I sobbed harder.
"Bella please love what is going on?" he pleaded over and over again.
Hearing him on the other side of the door made me sob harder, so I covered my ears.
"Please talk to me Bella" he pleaded again but I kept ignoring him.
My heart had been so broken the last month that I just wanted to give up. I didn't have any energy in me left and I was scared of that. Scared because I promised to be strong and now I just…couldn't. I couldn't deal with this, it just hurt too much. And what was worst was that this time he couldn't my pain because he was the cause of it.
A little while later I heard another voice.
"Bells its Alice, please open this door. I'm alone honey please just open. I'm worried about you." she pleaded so I slowly got up and opened the door.
As soon as she saw me her eyes grew wider with concern. I knew that if I didn't talk to someone about it I would go crazy and a part of me needed to talk to someone. She shut the door and wrapped her arms around me pulling me to my bed "Bells what's going on?" she asked.
"He loves her..." I sobbed.
"Who loves who?" she asked confused.
"Edward and Bree...I saw it today. I've been feeling it but I just realized it today." I sobbed.
"How do you figure Bells? Edward loves you; he can't have any feelings for her."
"The way they were looking at each other. He's only looked at me that way. The look they had was the one we had when we were in our own bubble."
"Bella it has to be a misunderstanding. Edward is madly in love with you."
"No Alice I know its true, I feel it ..." I said as I held my hand on my heart. "I'm not wrong about this Alice."
"I'm so sorry sweetie. Maybe if you talk to him?" she suggested
"No I can't. Not right now." I said burying my head in my hands.
"He's worried honey. What am I going to tell him?"
"Just tell him that I'm not feeling well and need some time alone. I can't see him right now Alice. I need to clear my head before I talk to him."
"Alright, do you want me to stay with you? I can cancel my trip and be here with you. I can't leave you like this."
"No you have a plane to catch. Go have a wonderful time with Jasper's family. I'm going to be okay and plus I won't be here longer." I whispered realizing that I was leaving soon.
"I can't leave you like this Bella. I won't see you for two semesters. I have to know you'll be okay."
"You can and you will. I am a big girl. I'll miss you so much Allie." I said wrapping my arms around her.
"I'm going to miss you too. This is a great opportunity and maybe it came at the best time."
"I know. Now go meet Jasper and Allison. Give them a hug and kiss from me."
I wasn't going to mess anyone's life up. Alice and Jasper were going away for the holidays and I wasn't going to ruin that.
"Okay but promise you'll call me everyday?"
"I promise." I said trying to get her to go because she would miss her flight.
"And promise you'll talk to him."
"I promise." I told her the truth this time. I would talk to Edward but I knew what would happen when I did.
After she left I closed the door to my room once more and decided to take a shower to clear my mind. The pain that I was feeling would never go away but I had to figure out what I was going to do. Instantly I figured out my only option. With my mind made up I finished my shower, put on a pair of sweats and shirt and grabbed my laptop. I quickly wrote an email to the person that could help me and turned my phone off. I knew that Edward would continue to call and I couldn't deal with that right now. I got under my sheets and tried to get some sleep.
While I was lying in bed tossing and turning I suddenly heard my front door close and sat up in bed. I knew that the only person that had my house keys was Edward so I buried my head in my lap hoping he didn't come to my bedroom. When I heard the knob turning I cursed myself for unlocking it and laid down pretending I was asleep.
A moment later I heard him whispering my name but kept my eyes shut.
"Bella…" he whispered again and this time I knew he was in front of me because I felt his breath on my skin.
I kept pretending I was asleep though, because I knew I couldn't deal with this right now. But Edward knew me better then that.
"I know you're awake love, please look at me." He whispered cupping my cheek in his hand. "I'm worried about you, please talk to me."
I sighed cursing myself for being such a horrible actress. But I wasn't ready for this so I turned around on my bed. I felt the bed move and a second later I felt his arms around me.
"If you won't talk to me now you will have to eventually." He whispered placing a kiss on the side of my forehead.
As he squeezed me tighter against him I felt the tears falling from my eyes and shut my eyes tightly. My heart was broken and I felt like I couldn't breathe. I bawled my fist up tightly to hold in my sobs but it was to no success.
"I can't bear to see you like this Bella, please tell me what is going on?" he said and not being able to bear it he placed his arms around my waist and turned me to face him. As I looked into his eyes my perseverance broke and I buried my head in his chest sobbing. He ran his hands through my hair trying to sooth me but that only made my heart break more.
"If I knew what was wrong I would do everything in my power to make it all go away." He whispered.
"You can't." I sobbed as my body trembled uncontrollably. The pain was more then I have ever felt. I didn't know that one person could feel as much pain as I was feeling now. When they said that love hurts they were not lying.
"Why can't I?" he asked pulling me back to look at him.
Not being able to say anything I shook my head and looked away from him.
"Bella what happened?" he asked agitated.
"I don't want to talk about it Edward." I sighed trying to control my sobs.
"Did I do something? Did someone hurt you?" he asked trying to find out what happened.
Of course he was the cause of the pain but I couldn't find it in me to tell him that. If you don't talk about it you won't get your answer. My conscience was right and I knew I couldn't put off the conversation anymore. I had to get my answers.
"How long?" I asked because it was the only thing I managed to say at the moment.
"How long what?" he asked completely lost.
"How long have you had feelings for Bree?" I mumbled quickly because my heart was ripping and it hurt.
"What? I have no feelings for her." Edward whispered but I could hear the doubt behind every word and I felt a stab in my heart.
"Don't lie to me Edward" I suddenly shouted. He knew as well as I did that he did have feelings for her.
"Bella I'm not lying to you."
"I need to get out of here." I suddenly said getting up and throwing on a pair of sneakers.
I didn't care about my appearance or how dreadful I looked. I had to get out and get some fresh air so that is exactly what I did.
"Bella this is crazy! It is freezing out there! Where are you going?" Edward shouted trying to stop me from leaving.
"I need to walk Edward. Please let me go." I sighed.
"Fine but I'm coming with you." He said grabbing our coats.
I didn't fight with him coming along because I knew he wouldn't budge. He was as stubborn as I so I just slipped on my coat and headed towards my safe haven. Well it was my safe haven until this very night…
