Hey guys :))
Sorry for the super late post, this week has been completely bizzare for me xP. I had a few major tests coming up, and I'm taking the PSAT's tomorrow..
Anyways, this chapter I reeeaaaally short, I know, but hopefully I'll update another short chapter in a couple of hours to make up for it :)
I tried ignoring him, but he just went on knocking at the door. "Bella.. please open up..." his voice getting rasp from shouting my name too much.
"Please... just leave me alone for a while.." I said, trying to hold back the sobs that were threatening to come out.
"But Bella, you don't understand.."
Didn't understand what? That he didn't feel the same way about me as I felt about him? I couldn't think of any other reason why he wouldn't say those three words to me. I decided not to reply; maybe he might leave me alone for a while so I could think about what just happened. While I sat there deep in thought about what has just happened, there was another knock on the door, this one even softer than the last.
"Please, just give me some space..." I replied to the knock.
"Mommy?" I heard Marie angelic voice come from the other side of the door, "Mommy, I'm tired.."
I couldn't not let Marie in, I knew that. As the mother of Marie, she always came before everything, even Edward. I wiped away my tears and walked over to the door and unlocked it. When I opened the door, I saw Marie holding Edward's hand in one of her own.
"Come on, lets go to sleep! I'm tired.." Marie whined as Edward just kept on staring intensely at me. "Mommy, will you help me change into my P.J's?"
"Umm.. sure honey, let's go put on your P.J's." I gave her a dim smile.
This seemed to please her, as she dragged Edward into the room and plopped him onto the bed. "Wait for me, daddy.", she ordered him.
"Actually, sweetie, I've got some things that I need to do so I'll come snuggle with you later, kay?"
"Awww, fine, but you have to sleep next to teddy, promise?"
"I promise sweetie." and with that, he left the room.
He looked like he wanted to be away from me, he left so quickly, not even making sure that Marie was tucked in. At that point, I couldn't control me tears any longer. I broke down in front of Marie, and started crying uncontrollingly.
"Mommy! Are you okay?" Marie rushed over in her little nightgown. "Do you have a booboo?" she looked at me with concern, checking my arms and legs to see if there were any 'booboos'.
"I'm going to go get daddy! He'll find your booboo for you!" I held her back before she could scramble off the bed.
"NO!" I shouted, a bit too loudly, scaring Marie, "Daddy can't fix my booboo.." I whispered.
"But he can fix anything for you! Grandma says that as long as you love each other, you can fix all of your booboos." She stated.
"W-what..? No sweetie, daddy and mommy don't love each other.."
"Yes you do! I heard you!"
I stared at her, shocked at how she would know. "Well honey, I said it, daddy never said anything..."
"Yes he did! He told me a jillion times!"
"W-what?"
"Yeah! When you're sleeping, or when you're outside, he always tells me!"
Was that true?.... I couldn't help but wonder. "What did he say?"
"Lottsa stuff! He always say that he loves mommy lots, and sometimes he says that he wants to put a ring on your finger! I don't know why..."
He wanted to marry me? "Does he say anything else?"
"One time he said that he want to keep me and you and we can live together for real!" Her eyes shined brightly as she mentioned herself being adopted by us. "He says that I can have a little sister and brother and lots mor-" she was cut off by the sound of the door opening.
"Hi Daddy! I was jus telling mommy about our secret because she was sad!" she smiled brightly at him.
"Is... Is that t-true?" I asked him, my eyes gazing straight into his.
That's it for now~
Again, super sorry for the late update.. but after I finish up with this story, I've got a really awesome new idea :)) Hopefully you guys will like it as much as I do.
It's a completely different type of story, but I think that it may be even better than this one~
R&R Please & Thank you.
