Hello! So, Chapter 5, I've decided, I would make into two parts because I'm mean. There's a part that I really wanted to end it at but if I did Chapter 5 would be really short.

So the average age that was guessed was 15. No one got it right and the average age was wrong as well. I'm actually 13! Please let me know about what you think by that in your review.

On to the chapter.

Dream On

Chapter 5

Confrontations Part 1

I weighed the two options in my head. On the one hand, I'd get to talk to the one I'd missed so much to the point of almost death. But, on the other hand, if he decided he still didn't… love me and then he left again, I don't think I could live through it this time.

"Please, Bella?" he pleaded again.

It really wasn't fair when he did that to me, pleaded the way he did. I spun around at a leisurely speed. "What?" There was too much acid in my voice.

"I want to apologize for everything, for Alice being as annoying and persistent as always and for Rosalie's little 'visit' last night." He seemed to be weighing his next words. "And… for everything I've done to you. For hurting you, for leaving you" He whispered. I flinched at his last words. He lifted his hand to place it against my check but I moved before he could touch me.

"Edward…" I cautioned. "Please. Don't."

He frowned, dropping his hand.

"Edward, I can't do this. I'm sorry. I don't want to hurt again." I said, looking into his dark golden eyes, he hadn't fed in a while. "You should hunt." I blurted out, pointing at his eyes.

"You should too." He pointed to mine. "Why don't we go now? We'll ditch and hunt." He offered.

"Edward, I can't." I wouldn't. I couldn't even allow myself to wait for his answer; I turned around and stalked off to class.

"Bella! I know I hurt you, but please! I won't hurt you again. I promise you, I won't hurt you!" I could only imagine what his face looked like; it would be plastered in pain.

"Edward," I turned my head, looking him dead on in the eye. "I can't!" I murmured.

He grabbed my hand with what used to be a too strong grip. "Please, Bella, don't you hurt me." He whispered.

I tried freeing my hand but that only made him tighten his grip. "Bella…" he whispered my name several times.

Suddenly he wrapped his arms around my torso. On instinct alone, I leaned mu head down and bit the inside of his elbow.

He hissed.

"Sorry, Edward, but you need to let go!" I hissed back at him.

His arms dropped to his side.

I kept walking towards my original destination, which I no longer remembered.

"Bella…" I heard Edward mutter sadly under his breath. "I love you."

Had I heard correctly? I wasn't sure. I had the sudden urge to turn around and kiss him, but I ignored it.
