2. Broken Puzzle

My semiconscious mind had come up with two possibilities- A, I was dreaming or B, I was dead. Both seemed very likely at this point. I was starting to wake up, so I must have been dreaming. I didn't want to wake up. I liked this dream. I could see his flawless face perfectly clear- his golden eyes, his perfect nose, his dazzling crooked smile… The empty space in my chest burned in response. It was dragging me away from my only reason for ever living. As if trying to make my suffering worse, I felt two cold, strong arms around me. Why would my imagination torture me like this? It was as if I am "forbidden to remember, but terrified to forget" (A/N: Stephenie Meyer owns this quote. It was just one of my favorites, so I incorporated it into my story. I do not own it) The marble arms felt so real. And I remember falling onto the hardwood floor, so why was I on my bed?

Nothing made sense, but all the puzzle pieces fit together. Jacob was a werewolf. He was a vampire. Werewolves and vampires are mortal (or immortal) enemies. Jacob acting strange, his odd grimace when he called me 'honey', my too real hallucinations, the arms around me, oh, oh, oh! I knew it had to be true. I was just too terrified to look. If I was dreaming, I would only feel worse when I wake up. And my chest was already unbearably tearing me apart.

"Bella, love? Are you awake? It's okay sweetie I'm here." A familiar velvet voice whispered. It was so much better than my imagination. The cold breath that tickled my ear only made me believe he was actually here. It was too real. It had to be real…

"Edward?" I opened my eyes. He was actually, really, physically here. In my room holding me in his arms. "Edward are you really here?"

"Yes love, It's really me. Are you okay? You hit your head really hard." (A/N: Sorry to ruin the moment, but I just thought it was ironic that I had a SPLITTING headache when I was writing this chapter)

"I did?" Now that he mentioned it, I did feel a throbbing pain in my head. "Oh Edward," I began to sob uncontrollably.

"Bella?" I could hear the agony in his voice. "Bella what is it? Bella? Bella?"

I wanted so badly to answer him, but I just couldn't. I couldn't find the words to explain how I felt. Even if I could find the words, I wouldn't be able to find my voice. I just continued sobbing into his chest- his pullover soaked with my tears.

"Bella, sweetie, will you listen to me please? I obviously have to explain myself. First of all, Bella," he pulled my face up so I was looking at him. "Bella, I love you. I just want you to know that. I showed up here tonight to beg for you to take me back. I will understand if you want me to disappear forever, but I came back here to see if I was too late. Bella I am so sorry I broke you, it broke me too. I would spend day and night moping around only thinking about you. If you have moved on, I will honor your wishes. I just want you to know that I will never move on. Bella?"

What was he saying?! How could he ever think I would want him to leave forever? I shook my head on his shoulder and hugged him closer to me. I could NOT let him leave me. I breathed in his mouthwatering scent- so I could remember him more clearly.

"Edward," I choked out. "Edward how can you possibly think I moved on?"

"The boy you were with-Jacob I believe, don't you love him?" My head snapped up and his eyes destroyed me. If looks could kill, I would be dead. Not from hate, but pain. His golden eyes were in agony, along with the rest of his face. I reached up and stroked his cheek, as if wiping away a tear. "Bella? Do you love that dog?"

"Of course not! I have never loved anyone but you! I will never love anyone but you! But you apparently didn't believe that! How could you leave me Edward? How?" His body began to shake. He was sobbing tearless sobs almost as violent as mine are.

"I only did it because I wanted what was best for you, Bella!" his voice broke on my name. "I didn't want you hanging around with a monster! But then, you go and start hanging out with a monster! I love you Bella! Do you want me to go away? Just say the words and I'll go away." That caught me off guard.

"Edward, why would you go away? And how could you ever think I don't want you?! It's you who doesn't want me."

"Why do you not believe that I love you with all of my heart? I have told you I love you millions of times, and I have meant it every time I've said it. I will always want you Bella."

"And I will always want you Edward." My entire body was shaking. My sobs, his sobs, and my shivering body were basically creating an earthquake on my bed.

No one said anything after that. Although I fought my eyelids almost all night, I ended up falling asleep. For the first time in God knows how long, I had a dreamless night.

A/N: Well??? If you liked it, tell me! If you hated it, tell me! Oh yea! Merry Christmas Eve!!
