"Wanna know a little secret?" I motioned him closer until I was close enough to whisper. "I DIDN'T UNTIL NOW. NOW I WISH I HAD DIED. WHAT'S THE POINT OF GIVING ME ETERNITY WHEN YOU'RE GOING BACK TO THAT SLUTT?"
"YOU KNOW WHAT?" Emmett roared, his frame shaking with fury. "I'M SICK OF YOU NOT TRUSTING ME. EVERYTIME SOMETHING HAPPENS YOU ALWAYS THINK OF THE WORST POSSIBLE SCENARIO. NOT EVERYTHING'S MY FAULT. EVER SINCE I STARTED DATING YOU I HAVE BEEN A TROUBLE MAGNET." He closed his mouth, then opened it again.
I sat quietly, digesting what he had said. "You're right."
"No, no. Bella I didn't mean that. It slipped." Emmett clasped my hand.
"You're right." I repeated, losing all the feeling in my body. "And I'm sorry. I wish you'd never changed me." I stood up, taking my hand out of Emmett's. Suddenly everything felt claustrophobic, like the walls were inching in. "I need to go…."
"Bella, don't leave me again!" Emmett shouted as I bounced out the widow. I needed to go…think…do something that didn't include any of the Cullens. Because right now…I wish I'd never met them…
I ignored the words that everyone was yelling, I just ran, ran towards the forest. Or anywhere that I would be alone before someone found me. I ran my hands through my now soft and long hair. So this had been my dying wish. What a waste of words. I let out a loud laugh, letting the sound echo of the trees. I sat down and hid my head in my knees. What could I actually do? A) I could run away B) I could stay with the Cullens but ignore Emmett…and Rosalie….and Edward. C) I could forgive Emmett. I shook my head at the last one. I couldn't just forgive him. I had tried…but my heart couldn't really be mended again. No matter how much I loved him. But why forgive Emmett anyway? He didn't need forgiving he had Rosalie. Even hearing her voice made me want to throw up. Not that I could anymore, anyway. That was one other thing I couldn't do now. YAY! Or eat…or sleep…I had never realized how much I was giving up. But I hadn't been giving anything up, I would have died. Which was about as bad as this…almost.
"Bella?" Called a worried voice as I quickly stood up, my body barely a flash in the trees. I could see Edward coming through, running towards me. I made a split decision to stay where I was, wanted to hear what he was going to say. "Please Bella don't leave," His god like voice spoke quietly, breaking into my heart. Here was another person I had hurt. He ran towards me, pulling me into a tight hug and landing a kiss on my forehead. I broke away, holding my head down.
"There's another reason." I muttered. Another reason to just leave. I'm hurting everyone.
"Bella, it's okay." Edward murmured quietly, pulling me down on the grass with him. I stared blankly.
"What's okay?"
"I'm not another reason to leave. And you're not hurting everyone." He insisted as my mouth dropped. I hadn't said anything. He paused, his eyes widening. "I can hear your…." Edward let out a crooked grin. Great, he could hear me now too. "Bella, that's not what I came here to discuss with you. Please sit." He begged, motioning towards the plush grass. I rolled my eyes and followed his suit.
"Go ahead… I don't have all day." I glared down at my palm until it hurt to stare.
"Emmett loves you…more than I ever probably could." I could feel my mouth dropping in anger…sadness….everything.
"Shut up Edward!" I growled, surprised at the fierceness in my voice. "He loves Rose. I walked in on them twice, I'm not gonna stand for it again." He pulled my hand into his, holding it so I couldn't move.
"He loves you…he sat there hating himself…for three days and then Rose came…" A picture filled my mind. I could actually see Emmett sitting there. His face in his hands, curled up outside his room. I gasped in surprise.
"What are you doing?" I questioned and Edward glanced at me awkwardly.
"I'm just telling-"
"Why can I actually see what you're telling me?" I closed my eyes, ignoring his deep grin. Had what I seen been true? Was it actually Rosalie's fault? He loved me. I realized finally. I took off running towards the house. I couldn't let him think I was leaving..not for another second. I was finally coming home. I ran into Emmett's chest, pulling him into a tight hug. "I love you…" I whispered. And I knew that more problems would occur, but we were together and I'd do my best to keep it that way.
Well…sorry for the delay…I got writer's block and then I got really busy. Unfortunetly…this is the end of the story…I couldn't draw it out any longer, it has finally run its course. I want to thank all the faithful reviewers who have been here since the beginning and my faithful beta BiteMeEdward7 (who by the way writes awesome fanfics)…who totally rocks (I LOVE YOU!!!)….I love you all…
And I hope you liked the ending…could I have 40 reviews? Tell me if you liked the ending!!!
