The wind blew back my hair in a mane around my heart shaped face. I was running as fast I could, reminding myself that Edward might only be seconds ahead. I had lost his scent but if he was where I think he is, I would know if he still cared.
Edward
Bella… Bella… Bella… Why was she here? The first time we met Anastasia/Bella sent her dazzling, innocent smile my way, to the idiot who left her and broke her heart. She was my first love but I can't face her after I left her only to nearly get her killed and turned… I have to face her but I can't even begin to think about what would happen if she said she hated me, I couldn't live with her hate, not hers.
I hadn't realized it until I heard the graceful dance of Bella's footsteps along our meadow. I had stopped running and now Bella had found me, hiding like a child. She continued to walk closer with her shy, innocent smile, like she had just seen her lover come home from war. She was coming closer and all I wanted to do was to embrace her in my arms and run my fingers in her lush black hair. I didn't know how to face her after what I have done. She cupped my face in her hands and looked up at me with those beautiful gold eyes.
"I'm sorry Edward, I know you probably don't want to see me but I couldn't lie to Alice and I missed the Cullens so much. I don't want to intrude in Tanya and yours life."
I couldn't believe it, I could see no anger in her eyes just sorrow and warmth. Something I dearly missed in Tanya's eyes. I was lost for words, the wall around my heart to protect me against heartbreak again crumbled. I felt my arms move to hug her and I didn't stop them. My arms fitted perfectly around her, I took a deep breath taking in her scent. I felt her small arms wrap around me, my heart skipped a beat. Maybe she would forgive me and I promise if she did I would spend the rest of my life trying to make it up to her. I drew back and looking into her eyes I asked, "Isabella Marie Swan will you forgive me for leaving you and take me back?"
I saw Bella open her mouth to speak but words did not form. Seconds passed by like decades and my cold dead heat ached to reattach itself to Bella.
POV:Bella
I knew he was running away from me, I thought that just maybe, he might be so happy to see me he would embrace me in those beautiful arms and never let me go, realize that he made a mistake and take and fix my broken heart. I could feel the fearsome word vomit about to spill. I slowly walked over, every step taking an eternity. My fingers burned to touch his face and alas I could not stop them, I cupped his face in my hand and holding back silent sobs I said, "I'm sorry Edward, I know you probably don't want to see me but I couldn't lie to Alice and I missed the Cullens so much. I don't want to intrude in Tanya and yours life."
With a jolt I felt his arms reach around me, they fitted perfectly as if they belonged there. He looked me in the eyes and replied with the words, "Isabella Marie Swan will you forgive me for leaving you and take me back?" I felt my mouth open in hope to form a word but I just couldn't believe he still wanted me.. My powers of empathy told me he was sincere and I replied with the best answer I could think of. Our lips met in a never-ending passionate kiss. Our kiss was rudely interrupted by the sound of a heart piercing screech, looking around I found the owner.. Tanya…
