He's not the one 5

Chapter 5

Saying Goodbye

"Bella, please you need to know—"

"Save it, Edward. Just don't. Please, don't." I plead. I can't take anymore.

The next thing I know, I hear giant boulders collide and I look to see Jasper tackling Edward to the ground. Ferocious growls are let loose and now they circle each other in a wicked dance.

Jasper leaps first and is about to snap at him but before he can, Edward bites him in the shoulder instead. Jasper screams in agony from the burning of the venom. I want to comfort him but I know I can't. I am only human.

Carlisle grabs Edward and then Emmett grabs Jasper from behind and they both are locked in an iron grip.

"I will kill you Edward! Do you hear me?!" Jasper growls while snapping his teeth once more.

"No, no brother. Let's cool down first." Emmett chides. Carlisle then takes Edward inside and I walk up to Em and Jasper. "Are you ok?" I ask him. I look at his shoulder and his shirt is torn from Edward's bite.

"Yeah" he shrugs it off. "It just stings a little.

"You may be an empath, Jasper but vampires don't always have to be the strong ones." I wrap my arms around his middle and lay my head on his chest. He wraps his good arm around me and buries his head in my hair. "I was so scared" I whisper.

He chuckles. "Don't worry darlin', I wasn't going to hurt him that bad."

I laugh lightly and pinch him even though it does no good, "No silly, I was worried about you. As soon as he bit you, I wanted nothing more than to rip him to shreds myself."

He looks surprised. I must admit I am a little surprised at my confession as well.

"Let's get inside and talk to our exes, shall we?" I nod.

Jasper grabs my hand and squeezes it reassuringly. Both of our loved ones hurt us and with each other. The pain for Jasper and I is excruciating, how will we ever survive?

We walk inside and take a seat next to Rose and Emmett while Carlisle and Esme stand in the middle of the room. Edward and Alice stand in the corner huddling together as if they got caught stealing in a cookie jar.

Yeah, Alice stole from my cookie jar, alright. Pfft.

"Due to... recent events..." Carlisle begins but Rosalie lets out a snort and which he ignores her, "Edward, Alice and I have come up with a few decisions we all think may be best. I do think they owe you two an apology. We are all very disappointed in their behavior but as they have said, we cannot control..." he lets the sentence hang in mid air as he tries to find the right words to say.

"Urges?" Emmett blurts. You can count on Em for that one and we all roll our eyes.

"Being a ho? Rosalie adds.

"Fate" Edward finishes. "We couldn't control fate".

"Ha! That's a load of crap!" I yell.

"Virgin my ass" Emmett mutters.

I lean forward and rest my elbows on my knees. I decide to mock Edward using the famous lines who told us thousands of times. "'Oh, I want to wait for marriage because I have morals and I am so old fashioned' Blah Blah Blah. You're an idiot, Edward Cullen."

"I want a divorce" Jasper blurts out.

"But, But Jazzy. I don't want—ok, if that's what you really want" Alice tries to plea but she knows it is no use by the hard look on Jasper's face. She nods her head and looks away.

"It is, Alice. Did you honestly think that I would stay with you after this? This is bigger than a little problem." Jasper defends himself as he grabs my hand once more. I lean back into him and rub soothing circles on his thumb.

"You're right. I know I couldn't stay with you anyway. I love Edward too much." She takes Edward's hand and squeezes it. "I'm sorry Jazz, but I really did love you, but this was so much bigger."

Jasper is on the verge of tears that will never fall and I rest my head on his shoulder to give some more sort of comfort.

"Bella?" Edward. Great. Insert eye roll here.

"This better be good, Edward" I say.

"I am sorry."

I just huff and look away. He could say it over and over for the rest of his existence and it still wouldn't be enough.

"It's the same as Ali said. I love her so much, Bella. Please just let me go. I am so sorry, but I can't help it. I never wanted to hurt you."

"Yeah, ill let you go. Ill let you go right on out that door and want you to never come back!" Rosalie yells as she glares at the two Unfaithful lovers. "You're an evil pixie and you, Edward are a man whore!"

I turn my head into shoulder so they won't see me cry.

"Bella, I never wanted to hurt my sister, my best friend. I love you."

"Fuck you Alice" I mumble.

"So I take it we're leaving Ali?" Edward asks. "Ok go pack your bag, love"

Love? He used to call me that. I sob more and Jasper growls. I know who it is directed at.

"Yeah, I have to go pack" Alice says.

"You wont much to pack thanks to Bella." Jasper laughs. I look up to see Alice glaring at us but I don't care. The bitch deserved it.

As Edward and Alice go upstairs to pack Rosalie comes and sits next to me. "Oh, I am so sorry you guys. I don't know what the hell has happened. I can't believe them."

I stand up to stretch my legs and walk over to the fireplace that they never use. I lean my hand against the mantle and stare at the wall.

Who knew Edward leave me for my best friend? Who thought Alice would cheat on Jasper?

I look over to the couch and Emmett and Rosalie are giving him a group hug. "We love you", "I hate her", "I'll kill them both", "Im here for you" are a few things they say to comfort him.

Not wanting to get even more depressed than I already am, I deicide to step outside and get some air. I admire my handiwork on Edward's car and realize it only made me feel good for that moment. It won't help me in the long run. How do I get over him when I love him to pieces? Sure, I can be a bitch and try to hurt him as much as he has to me but I really do love him.

I feel someone come up behind me and turn to see Alice and Edward with suitcases and bags in hand. "Don't worry" I smile evilly at him, "I won't tell anyone you left me for your sister." I then laugh at my own joke. Laughing is better than the tears that want to escape my eyes. Laughing is easier to mask the pain.

I turn around and walk back into my house. I hear the yellow Porsche drive away and I realize that there is no turning back. Edward really is gone and he really did leave me for Alice.

I cried the last tears I would ever cry for him in that moment.
