The Break-Up

Bella's POV

Sitting in the stands watching Emmett play ball wasn't so difficult. But having to turn away every time Edward walked on the field was unbearable, watching him play as if nothing had happened. Had he even noticed I wasn't at school today? He was probably too preoccupied with Ashley to notice. I took a steady breath, looking on as Emmett went up to bat.

I felt weird sitting there in the stands alone. No one I knew sat beside me. I felt like a loner. I also knew every one's gaze crept upon me once and a while. Everyone had seen what had happened yesterday. I tried my best to erase the memory that was permanently burned into my brain. I didn't even cheer as Emmett jogged around the bases. I couldn't do much more than sit there and feel the endless pit of nothingness that took place inside of me.

I saw Edward walk onto the field towards the pitcher's mound. I immediately looked away. I got a sickening feeling. I turned and watched the horizon instead of the game. It made me feel somewhat ominous. I couldn't take this anymore, I had to leave. I took a long steady breath and stood up. I made my way to the isle, trying not to hurt myself or anyone else. I started down the stairs. I heard a few people chanting Edwards name and I couldn't handle it. I let a few tears fall down my face. I wrapped my arms around my chest and walked towards the parking lot where my father waited in his car. I was confused when the chanting of Edward's name stopped, I didn't really care, though.

"Bella! Wait!" I heard the sound of pure velvet. I didn't have to turn to see who had called my name. I simply began to walk faster. I couldn't face him, not even now. He called out to me again.

"Bella, please wait!" his voice sounded out of breath and saddened. I didn't turn I just walked faster to my father's cruiser. I was about half way there when I felt a hand wrap around my wrist. I pulled me to a stop.

"Bella, stop!" he ordered. I spun around to face him. He was trying to catch his breath. He looked at me with pain struck eyes, his hand still wrapped around my wrist, I hissed, "Don't touch me!" I tried to pull my hand back, I failed.

"Bella, just… stop." He breathed I ground my teeth together, I stopped struggling. I watched as he took a steady breath, why couldn't he just leave me alone? Did he think that he hadn't hurt me enough?

"Don't you have a game to play, Cullen?" I sneered his name, trying to make it sound like I hated it, but the truth was it was just really hard to say it. His eyes turned to mine.

"Bella, that doesn't matter right now. The only thing that matters to me right now is you." He whispered in the most perfect voice. I scowled at him.

"Bullshit." I muttered in a low whisper. He must have heard me, he sighed.

"Bella… please just hear me out. Let me explain." he asked questionably, his voice was pure sweetness. It made me mad that he thought he could still talk to me like that. Why should I even listen to him? After what he had done? "Why should I? I snapped letting the bitterness leak into my voice. He grabbed my wrists holding them in his iron grip.

"May I have 3 minutes of your attention, please?" he looked into my eyes and I assumed that gave him the answer he wanted because he kept talking. "Bella I know that you'll never believe me and I know that it's not enough but I'm truly sorry. From the bottom of my heart. But I swear, I had no intention of hurting you like that. Ashley practically assaulted me. She threw herself at me. I didn't even realize what was happening until after it happened and you were gone. It meant NOTHING to me! Please, please, please, please forgive me." He said in one long breath. He took a deep breath and started again. "I know that you probably hate me, but I swear it's the truth. I would never try to hurt you intentionally." He stared into my eyes, his green orbs were apologetic.

"Edward…" I murmured. I wanted to believe him, but my heart just wouldn't let me. I knew Ashley's reputation was some-what like Edward's but I just wasn't sure. I took a deep breath. "Edward, I want to believe you, but I'm not sure if I can. I know Ashley's reputation and well she was mu best friend so I knew her pretty well, but I don't think that I can just forgive you just like that. I think I just need some more time. I'm really sorry. Now, go finish your game, Emmett can't afford to lose. He needs that scholarship. Please. Don't ruin his life because of me. And don't ruin yours either. Goodbye." I pulled my hands free of his weakened grip and turned on my heel. I walked as steadily as I could to Charlie's cruiser. As soon as I closed the door I burst into tears. They didn't stop until we were at the house and I was in my room. I took a few steady breaths and the tears stopped for a little. Then I thought of what I had just done and they came back again.
