I advise you to listen to Texas Angel by Honeybrowne while reading this. Me and my fam are good friends with the band. And listen to Forever and Always by Bullet for My Valentine. They help the mood. Ok your reviews made me want to write SOMETHING. So I stirred this up. so read………..
I ran my hand over her scars. It shook and I tried to figure out why. I didn't know if it was shaky because I was so furious that someone had done this to my love, I mean Bella. Or was I so ecstatic that she had trusted me enough to show me this.
She gasped from the contact, and then sighed from the coolness. I rested my palm fully on her right wound. I soon found that it was not just my hand that shook. Bella was shaking with sobs as well. I could not stand the painful sounds she was making. I turned her around and embraced her. And she hugged back.
"You don't hate me? She whimpered.
"No! Why would you ever think that?" I knew I was probably being too aggressive, but it was preposterous that I would ever hate her.
"I am ruined." She sobbed, holding on to me tighter. On different circumstances this would have been the best feeling. But she was in pain and someone had caused it.
"Who did this?" I said with venom toward the cutter. She did not say anything, but she did scream and hold on tighter. Each tear she cried each slash I wanted to take to this monster that did this.
I suddenly felt we couldn't be here anymore. I grabbed her tighter. I thought she would crunch.
"Hold on." I whispered. I began to run to the only place I could think of. She didn't even know when I stopped.
I sat her in the grass of my secret meadow taking my place beside her. The little time that I loosened my grip she screamed again.
"Don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me….." she chanted. "That's all they do." That I could promise.
"I will NEVER leave you." I promised. Her head snuggled into the crook of my neck. I could feel the sweet tears hot tears run down my neck as I inhaled the sent of her hair.
Should I say it? Should I say what I've known since I first laid eyes on her? Should I say what will piss my family off? Should I say what may send her running and screaming? And right then she beat me to it.
"I love you." She whispered. The felling that coursed through me was unnatural. I wanted to run around and scream like a homeless man that just won the lotto. Not even having to think, I answered.
"I love you more then you could ever know." I said, pulling her face up so that she could see the truth in my eyes. All though her face was tear stained she looked beautiful as always. Especially in the moon light as her face glowed.
And as she looked into my monstrous eyes she must have spotted something because her perfect full lips twitched up slightly.
"That's it smile." I coaxed. It's all I wanted to see at the moment. I was probably grinning like an idiot, but I was too lost in her to know.
And she did. It was troubled but it was there. I smiled so hard I thought my face would hurt. Then she began to sob once again. I began to panic.
"Bella-"
"I always knew I could see the dead. I had no idea I could see angels." She said holding me tighter.
ME! An angel? She has the tables turned on that one. But my smile came back involuntary.
"Shhhhhh…. I am no angel. I believe you have me confused with yourself my love." It felt good to finally call her that. I had always wanted to say that after hearing my mother and father all the time. She scoffed and I readjusted my grip on her while chuckleing.
My mother. What had she meant? Complete.
Flashback. 1914 Edward is 13.
"Mother, I do not wish to dance with the girls!" Edward yelled.
Not like he didn't like the girls. He was a full blood male with newly found feelings for girls, but they all seemed to be shallow and stupid. The only thing that gave him hope was his mother. She was the opposite of shallow and stupid. That's the only thing that kept him going.
"Oh really, and what do you wish to do?" Elizabeth Chuckled, trying once again to fix his messy mop hair.
At that question a wicked grin plastered onto Edwards face. "Battle! I want to kill, and defend my country!" Edward jumped off the stool and began making fighting actions. "I want to watch them bleed!" he yelled, throwing his arms in the air.
Slight giggles made their way from the door way. Sure enough two teenaged girls had made their way upstairs. Elizabeth shook with laughter and shoed them away giggling, as Edward blushed scarlet. God how he hated the giggling.
"Don't worry dear." Elizabeth cooed. "You don't need to worry with such things, like war." She said. Edward stepped back on to the stool so his mother could continue tailoring.
"One day you will find a young woman that will complete you." She sighed.
Edward blushed once again. "Ha! But I will be fighting-"
Elizabeth stuck him with a pin before Edward could finish his sentence. They both busted out laughing.
"Well Mother, lets get this over with shall we?" he jumped from the stool and out the door.
"Be a gentleman!" She yelled after him, shaking her head.
End Flashback.
That was it. Bella was it. Bella was what my mother and I had been waiting for. She was the young woman that completed me. Because that's exactly how I felt.
Corny as it may sound. She completed me.
The wind blew her sent toward me, but I had no thoughts of killing. Just thoughts of her.
But the wind did not stop and I felt suddenly cold. I looked down at Bella and she was once again glazed in that look she had before.
"Edward…." She began. "She is in peace." She finished. I nodded and smiled knowing who she was talking about. But at that moment I heard my name being called by a voice I thought I would never hear again.
There right in front of me was my mother. She looked just as beautiful as I remembered. She waved one more time before disappearing.
I squeezed Bella till I thought she would brake, but she didn't seem to mind.
"Thank you." I whispered.
And she smiled the true smile that I had wanted to see all night. The one were here beautiful brown eyes seemed to twinkle. She smiled till she fell asleep as a hummed her lullaby that I had written for her.
This is how I wanted to stay. Forever and for always.
But I knew, the peace would not last for long. I had a feeling all hell was about to break loose.
But Bella would not leave my side if even hell froze over.
