BPOV: (two days later)

I pulled up to Charlie's driveway and was surprised to see Edward standing there looking extremely serious. I got out of the truck and walked over to him.

"Bella," he said with little emotion in his tone,

"Come take a walk with me." With that, he started to walk towards the woods behind the house and I followed him, unsure of what could be going on in his mind. Could he have found out about me and Jasper, and if so how? I thought unsure of how the conversation would continue. we walked along the forest path coming to a stop as Edward had sighed and looked down at the ground. Edward avoided eye contact keeping his eyes downcast at the root filled ground under his feet. ,

"We're leaving Forks." He whispered the words. My eyebrows furrowed. ,

"We as in…" My voice trailed off as I tried to remain calm my emotions slowly rising getting the best of me. ,

"I mean myself and my family. We aren't safe here. We were blind to the dangers we put the people of Forks in. The danger we put you in." He said his eyes still not reaching mine. ,

"What about us? I can come with you, Charlie doesn't need me here." I said grabbing his hand as he jerked it away. ,

"No Bella, you need to stay here away from us. You're just going to get hurt, we're dangerous." He said his eyes finally meeting mine, his eyes, those eyes that once glowed brightly with golden light were dulled, devoid of every emotion. ,

"You have to forget about me Bella, move on and don't look back." He said his voice even and composed. For a moment I didn't think about Edward and I, I thought about Jasper my southern soldier. He was leaving too. ,

"But Edward I-I love you, I love only you. How can I move on from that." I said as tears prickled my eyes. I thought of a world without Jasper's laugh, without his soft knowing smiles, without his arms around me. ,

"You're human you can move on with time. Goodbye Bella." Edward whispered his cool lips ghosting a kiss over my forehead, before he walked away. ,

"Edward! Wait! Please!" I said trying to chase after him, but he was too fast. I tripped over a tree root falling to the mossy damp ground, I didn't want to get up. Without Jasper there wasn't a point. I felt like my whole world was falling I sat up from the pile of matted leaves under me I curled up in a ball, not caring if I'm covered in dirt and debris of the forest. It was hard to tell how long I had laid there before I heard the one voice I needed to hear call my name.

JPOV:

"Bella..."I called out to the hunched over figure on the floor as I stood only a foot away. As obvious as it was I could tell that she had been crying, no doubt in my mind knowing Edward had told her what was going on. As I had gotten closer she tried to tighten herself into a ball as if to protect herself like she was a child scared of their nightmare coming to get them. It hurt to see her in that state and I know no words I could say right now at that moment could help but I knew one thing is that I just needed to hold her. I instantly walked towards and knelt down to her level, grabbing her shoulders as I held her close.

"I know, i don't want to leave either but i have no choice. However before I leave i want to spend as much time with you as i can before i leave and i promise to you with all my heart that i will do whatever i can to make it back to you" i pick her up and take her home to her room at Charlie's not wanting her to be at the cottage alone. I walked into the house and up to her room laying down on her bed holding her all through the night and all day the next morning. I held her all day until finally i had to go. I kissed her passionately and left knowing i would find a way back to her.
