A/N: OMC guys I am so sorry it took this long for an update. I have barely had time to eat these last few weeks plus writers block. So once again sorry. Oh and for a little good news. I get to meet Stephenie!!!!!!
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or any of its characters for if I did I would not be writing this story. I would be writing about Edward whisking me off into the night. sigh….lol
I'm not sure when I fell asleep to the sound of the Forks rain against Alice's window and my own tears on her pillow. Earlier I had looked forward to the sweet escape of unconsciousness. That was until my dreams turned into nightmares.
Surrounded by the damp trees of the forest behind Charlie's house the rain was pouring down all around me. My clothes were soaked almost instantly but it made no difference to me. All I cared about was finding something. I didn't know what it was but I was sure that it was of great importance that I found this thing.
There was a long, winding path I did not remember being there but I took it figuring it was better then chancing anything else. That and I would probably break my neck off the trail but then again I could do that just as easily on the path. I stumbled my way threw the woods; my movements were slow and labored because of my rain drenched clothing. After awhile a sudden scent delighted my senses. It felt so familiar and made me want to melt right where I stood. Flashes of memory overcame me and I was back to that fateful night in Port Angeles where Edward saved me. It was the same comforting scent from his jacket. Suddenly I knew what I was looking for. Edward.
After that, it only took a few minutes to reach my goal. Edward stood in the middle of the path. I ran to him but instead of embracing me, he just stepped to the side. I came to a screeching halt; something was horribly wrong. Edward refused to look me in the eyes and sadly muttered. "I wish you would love me."
All thoughts instantly left my mind when he said that. Did he truly think I did not love him? "Edward, I do love you. I swear on my very soul my love for you is true and will last for all eternity. Don't you see that? I need to love you as much as I need to breathe."
"Don't lie to me." My heart sank he didn't believe me. "Good-bye Isabella."
I was frozen as he walked away. I wanted to die. He was leaving me again my love, my life, he was everything to me and he was walking away. He disappeared from sight after what seemed like forever and I sank to my knees in the pouring rain tears coming just as fast as the raindrops. I let out a sorrowful scream that cut threw me and ripped that hole in my heart wide open. Edward was gone and I knew I was not going to make it.
I bolted up right in the bed breathing hard. It was just a dream I repeated to myself. Finally, I calmed my breathing and lay back down. As I laid there listening to my soft breaths I heard the shallow breathing of another. Instantly I thought Edward and even after my recent nightmare, I was in no mood to talk to him especially when he obviously broke into the room.
"Edward now is not the moment." I spoke into the darkness.
"Bella," whispered a musical female voice, "Bella its Esme sweetie, can we talk?"
Ok she had my attention. Then again she would anyway I could never deny Esme her requests. She was like my second mother.
"Shoot… I mean sure Esme we can talk. What is it that you need to talk to me about?"
"Edward."
"Oh that." Why did it have to be that? Why not puppies or rainbows? Even though the picture of Esme and I talking about puppies and rainbows was odd and not in the least interesting to her, nor me it was better than the current subject. Esme must have noticed my frown because she hurried to explain.
"Wait, let me say this. I don't want you to forgive him unless you want to. Edward is in the wrong here and he needs to suffer a little." I was shocked those words had come out of Esme's mouth. She wasn't finished though. "Now eventually I believe you guys will make up or at least I hope. However, that's not what I want to really talk about. Edward is a jealous being always has been but never for a girl. Now he has you my dear and he lost it tonight. Believe me it was no excuse for what he did but he is new to this. When he thought you were with another man it hurt." I went to explain I was not "with" another man and never would be, but Esme cut me off.
"Not that I'm implying you were with another man. Oh gosh no! It's just jealousy is a cruel beast that changes who we are. It can take the sweetest man and twist him into a possessive idiot." I yawned and Esme finally to a break from talking. But that break was short. "Oh dear, it's so late I forget you aren't one of us…yet. Now get to sleep I am sorry I woke you. Just remember jealousy is a cruel beast and Edward is truly sorry."
With that, Esme stood and briskly walked out of the room. I don't remember Esme being that talkative, but she was right. I decided tomorrow I would forgive Edward and once again, all would be right with the world. When I drifted off to sleep I once again dreamed of Edward and…puppies and rainbows.
A/N: Ok I do not like this chapter at all but finally all will be right in Edward and Bella land. I wrote this chapter through writers block and lack of sleep (bad idea). Plus it sounds rushed sorry. I think there will be one more chapter, which should be up soon…hopefully. Once again sorry this chapter took so long and kind of sucks. So review and tell me how much this chapter sucks.
