"What?"
"Who do you choose? Some who would protect you, someone who
could let you have a normal life, who could do things with you the
other can't… at least not without killing you that is." Jacob
flashed a smile.
"Jake!"
"No, I couldn't have said it
better myself. But you know…pup, in the end, the feeling is all
that matters. When you truly love someone, you would sacrifice
anything for them, including your life." He paused to smile
at me, and Jacob rolled his eyes. "Of course, I'm not saying that
I ever will hurt you, I really hope you know that" he continued.
"No, I know you wont hurt me, that's the thing, your too
delicate and careful with me…"
"In a bad way" Jacob added
cutting me off
"No, not in a bad way, but.."
"Yes in a
bad way" Jacob cut me off again.
"can you tell the pup to
shut his mouth?!" Edward was mad, yelling at him now.
"Jake,
can you step out for just a second?" I asked politely.
As
Jacob got out of the room, I stepped closer to Edward.
"Edward,
it's just that…" I was trying to find the right words to say.
"I want you. In every way. I wouldn't love anyone else the same
way, and no matter who I'm with, there's always going to be that
hole in me that wont be filled without you. That piece that makes me
whole." I was starting to sound cheesy and stupid, but I kept going
anyway. "I just don't want you to be too careful with me. I know
I'm not as strong as you, but I'm stronger than you give me
credit for" I smiled.
"don't confuse strength with bravery,
Bella" he said in a serious tone. "it would kill me if anything
happened to you, whether it was my fault or yours or that dog's." his voice was calm but I could sense anger in his voice. "just tell
me one thing, and don't tell me what I want to hear, I want you to
tell me the truth."
"Okay.. What?"
"Do you .." he
paused to take a deep breath. "do you still feel the same way about
me as you did before… him.." I could tell this wasn't easy for
him to say.
"my feelings for you haven't changed at all, and
they most likely never will." I admitted
"Bella…." his
voice was a whisper, and he didn't continue what he was going to
say.
He bent down and kissed me, our lips were moving together,
and I didn't pull back this time.
"made up your choice yet?"
he asked with a smile as he pulled away.
"I think so…" I
said smiling back.
