Chapter 9

Bella's Point Of View

If only I could believe that. Nate's thought echoed through my mind.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I demanded.

"It means that it's hard to believe that you love me and that I'm enough." Nate snapped

"God! Why are you so insecure all of the sudden?" I hissed, "We've been married eighty seven years and you've never so much as questioned my love until a week ago."

"I never had a reason to!"

"It's nice to know you trust me." I muttered sarcastically.

"Bella, I just want to know that you love me and you won't leave me. I can't compete with your first love."

"You already now that I love you and won't leave. And there is no competition."

"I know." He mumbled.

"Nate, why can't you just take my word for it? I won't leave! I can't. I can't live without you!" I exclaimed.

"You keep saying that. I'm just waiting for you to mean it." He mumbled.

"Why are you doing this? Why can't you just be happy and stop being so overdramatic and insecure!?"

"Stop. Bella, just go. Be with him. I can tell you want him. Just go."

"Nate, I –" I started but he cut me off.

"But keep in mind, I'm not picking up the pieces when he breaks your heart again." He murmured, "You'll have to find someone else who has waited centuries to find their mate and have them deal with all of this shit. They can spend years getting you back to normal, they can deal with the nightmares and the crying, because you know what?" he asked, exasperated, "I'm done."

"What?" I whispered, afraid that if I spoke louder my voice would crack and I'd start to sob.

"I. Am. Done."

I was trying to hold in the sobs but I couldn't. I was in too much pain.

"Don't act like you're upset. I know you've been waiting for this." Nate snapped, "You don't want me. You never have."

I was shaking with the force of my sobs.

Nate turned and stalked out of the house.

I fell to my knees and let the pain consume me.

My mind ran through different ways to stop the pain. I stopped at the solution I had been at before I met Nate.

I stood shakily and picked up a pen and paper.

And with a broken heart, I wrote letters to the people I love.

Nathaniel,

I love you so much. Words can't even describe. I'm sorry you had to deal with everything like the nightmares and the crying. Please understand that I never intended to hurt you. I love you more than I've ever loved anyone or anything. I'm sorry I hurt you and I'm sorry I've put you through so much. Please forgive me. Please forget the fight we had, I don't want your memories of me to be like that. I want you to remember our life together and our love, not a stupid fight that I was stupid enough to start.

I'm sorry I have to do this but I can't live without you. Now you know I mean it.

I love you.

Forever Yours,

Isabella Marie Delsin

I wrote my last letters to Shadow, Emilee, Holly, Cody, Stassi, Edward, and the Cullens.

I walked slowly outside to the backyard and pulled out my lighter. I placed the flame near my granite skin and prepared to end my eternal existence.

OOOO!

Weren't expecting that were you?

What will happen?

Will Bella do it?

Or will someone stop her?
