The way I loved you By Taylor Swift
Summary: Edward and Bella and a strong relationship but they fought, constantly. When Bella ends it for the best, she and Jacob get together. Jacob is incredibly polite and kind, but she doesn't feel the pull towards him like she did with Edward.
I was sitting on my porch waiting for Edward's Volvo to pull up. It was raining, the perfect setting. You see, Edward and I have been together for a few months, but we argued over meaningless things, so I am ending it. I love him, but it won't work out like this.
I sighed and my heart floated down. His Volvo drove into my driveway and he got out, looking amazing.
He ran up the porch stairs, to avoid getting very wet. He smiled at me, then stopped when he saw me expression. My expression was worried and nervous, his was hurt.
"Alright, just get it over with" He whispered
"Edward, I think it's best if we take a break from each other, we fight constantly and we are getting nowhere" I said
"If that's what you want, but please know that my heart will always belong to you" he murmured, softly. That sentence made my heart clench, but I just repeated to myself it is for the best. My mind says so, but my heart doesn't.
I got up from the porch swing kissed him lightly on the lips and he closed his eyes and walked to the rain. He tilted his face up and said "Bella, when it rains I want you to think of me; to think of us" he whispered lightly, painfully.
I nodded my head once and watched him leave.
The next week after the break up Jacob, the ladies man asked me out. I wanted my heart to move on, so I gave it a shot.
He picked me up not a second before or a second after when he said he would. He opened the door for me and smiled.
Then, my parents Renee and Charlie came out, stopping us.
"Oh, so this is Jacob, Billy's son." Said my dad
"Oh yes, Rebecca Black, his mother talks about him constantly at the book club" said my mom
"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Swan." He said light and perky
"Oh, please call us Renee and Charlie" said my mom
Jacob nodded and smiled warmly.
We held hands as we walked to his Rabbit. Billy, his dad is a mechanic so he fixes up ancient cars like these all the time.
Jacob and I officially became a couple on our third date.
I was currently sitting at the lunch table, around my friends.
"Oh, Bella! I am so jealous! I wish I had a Jacob as a boyfriend" gushed Leah, my single friend
"Yeah, that would be amazing" said Jessica, dreamily.
I smiled, a fake one Iike I used with Jacob. I can see it in his eyes that he honestly believes I was smiling.
I looked out the window to distract myself, but regretted it instantly. It was raining. I watched as the water dripped onto the window sill. Drip, drip, Edward, Edward. Just like it was taunting me. I felt the urge to cry hit me like an ocean.
Then, I saw James. He was the bad boy of our school. He was smoking weed. He knew it was bad for him, but he loves it and does it anyways. Then I suddenly had an epiphany. I loved, wait no scratch that, I love Edward. I did and always will. I knew it was wrong fighting with him, but I guess my mind wasn't ready to give all of my heart away, so it made me believe that if I fought him and argued I wouldn't love him anymore. But, no my heart realized that I loved him with every fiber of my existence. He loved me back. But, I let him go. I looked over at his table and saw a blond sitting next to him talking. I felt a pang of jealousy and hurt blast through me. He turned his head and looked in my direction. I tear slipped out from the corner of my eye and I looked away.
Being with Edward was like a rollercoaster kind of rush. I missed screaming and fighting and I also missed kissing in the rain. There were two sides of Edward, the soft caring and compassionate one and the protective and reasonable one. I loved both. To other people, Edward wasn't perfect. But to me, he was perfect. Even if he wasn't then that's the way I loved him.
I remember our biggest fight yet. I don't even remember what we fought about. I woke up from a horrible nightmare at two A.M and I cursed his name. Now, I wake up from nightmares of the day we broke up. But I knew somewhere inside me wished I would have those dreams more often. I would see his face more. He was amazing, incredible.
Then there was Jacob, he is incredible and sensible and all my single friends are jealous. He opens up my door and I get out of his Rabbit and I feel perfectly fine. My heart isn't breaking but I'm not feeling anything at all.
Jacob is close the Renee and talks business with Charlie; he got along so well with them. But not with me, I mean we do get along but not like a couple, we got along like brother and sister. There was a part of me that loved him, like a brother that is. Now, I miss Edward. A lot.
I was sitting on my bed all alone, in my room. I was bored and was sulking. Edward. Edward. Edward. Was all I could hear.
Then, I acted on impulse. I took out my phone and scrolled into the E section of my contacts. I clicked on the one number I thought I would never call again: Edward.
I pressed the green phone icon and it started ringing. I looked down at my fingers and saw that I had subconsciously entwined my middle and my pointer finger. I crossed them. I was hoping he would pick up. Then he did.
"Hello?" he asked
"Um, E-Edward" I stuttered, now horrified and nervous. What do I say?
"Uh, Bella? Is that you?"
"Yeah, Hi" I said quickly. Hi? Really Bella? So cool.
"Sooo. What's up?"
"Um.- I was tempted to just say I pressed the wrong one, but decided against it- I wanted to tell you something" I said
"Sure. Yes?" He said lightly
And so, I spilled my heart out on him. I told him about Jacob, my epiphany-everything. He didn't interrupt me only to say "Keep going" or sigh sadly.
When I was finished, he said "I feel that way also. Tanya is fine, but I miss you more than anything"
Then we got back together. I couldn't talk much after my phone call. My heart had floated to the top of my throat, blocking it.
The next day, Jacob showed up at my door and he broke up with me. He said, he found chemistry with Leah. I was thankful and we broke up, cleanly with both of us happy.
Now Edward I and are together and happy. We don't fight, but sometimes we playfully reenact some of our many quarrels but it was all very light and playful.
I never had been so happy. Edward is compassionate, loving, caring, protective and just incredible. And that's the way I love him.
