"Bella? Please?"he begged, attempting to dazzle me."No." it didn't work."Pleeeeeeeeease????" he whined, trying harder to dazzle me."NO!"I shouted."Bella!"he yelled."DID YOU HEAR ME THE F---ING FIRST TIME??"I screamed, a slight smile playing on my face."ISABELLA MARIE SWAN!" he pretended he washorrified that I had used that word, but the corners of his mouth twitched."WHAT?" I yelled, exasperated."I AM GOING TO MARRY YOU, AND YOU ARE GOING TO LIKE IT!!" he was trying so hard to look menacing, and not make me laugh.Iburst out laughing.
After I was finished laughing I could tell by the look in his eyes that he wasn't going to let the subject go, so I immediately thought of how to get away.
"Edward, honey, um, I'm going for a quick hunt and please don't follow me" I said to him without looking at him, and running out of the house as soon as possible.
"um, alright." He was still smiling, but looked a little hurt.
"I just need to think." His face sunk, and hit rock bottom.
"I love you, be back ASAP." I kissed his forehead, and human-sprinted out of the house.
I had been out for a few hours, thinking about Edward's proposal. I had a grizzly bear, and a few squirrels, but I really didn't want to go back just yet.
The look on his face haunted me as I ran aimlessly, and I cursed myself because what had happened the last time I did that. I stood on the cliff, watching the waves crash. I had no idea how I had crossed the border, and how I had not noticed. The stench of werewolf should have been so strong! But there was no bounder line anymore, I remembered. Because there was no more treaty.
The waves below started crashing harder, and growing bigger as high tide approached. And bigger. Suddenly, a woman who was walking along the beach got sucked in, and did not resurface.
The waves roared, and the woman struggled. I thought hard, and the waves quieted a bit. I pushed out, using the full force of my mind.
A head broke through, and didn't think twice. I dove off of the cliff.

Bella…wanted…to think? Did that mean she didn't love me anymore? That she had lied to me so I wouldn't (or would) feel bad about leaving her?
Was she going to leave me?
Was that why she wouldn't marry me?
But…I was so sure…she even said it as she left, didn't she? "I love you"? So why did she need to think about spending the rest of her existence with me?
All of these questions were booted out of my mind as Alice threw my door open, and said, "Edward! It's about Bella!" in a frantic, yet defeated voice.
"WHAT HAPPENED?!?!" I yelled. Did she run in to Paul? Or worse yet, Victoria?
"She...jumped, Edward. Again." Alice looked down at the ground, and walked over to me.
"Bella…tried to kill herself?" I said, not comprehending.
"I don't know. I really don't know." She shook her head. "I can't see her future, Edward."
My heart broke in to a million pieces. "BELLA!!" I cried. The pain was horrible, terrible, and my non-existing heart just couldn't take it. I ripped open, (metaphorically, people) and it was like being chopped in half with a rusty axe.

I was under the water, swimming. I reached her in a number of seconds, and grabbed her. I held her above the water, and swam with one arm as fast as possible back to shore.
I laid the woman down, and stopped breathing, then felt her pulse. It was normal, and I was relieved. I made sure she was breathing normally, (check) and took a tiny breath. I realized she smelled like…werewolves.
I did the only thing I could think of, which was sling the woman over my shoulder, and run as fast as I could to Sam's house.
Paul opened the door, and looked surprised to see me there. Then he got his wits back.
"Blood sucker. What are YOU doing here?" he said harshly, and then he zeroed in on the limp body over my shoulder.
"What, you suck a corpse dry and come to drop it off here? I don't think so, leech." He started to close the door, when I said,
"Shut up. This woman was drowning, and when I pulled her out, she smelled like dog."
Paul's face changed from a smug expression to one of curiosity.
I quickly ran at vampire speed in the living room, and then quietly and gently laid the woman down on the couch.
"Do you know her?"
All the werewolves, including Sam, were gathered around the small blue couch.
"It's Mary." Quil whispered.
"Who?" I asked. I saved her life, I had a right to know.
"Paul imprinted on her." Sam said, quietly. I doubted anyone else besides me could hear it.
"Alright." I said, slowly."She's unconscious, but should wake up in a few hours. If she doesn't wake up in 24 hours, take her to the hospital, or bring her to our house."
Ok, a chapter? Maybe? I know it's short, but there's not much I can do about that!
