This song is "You are the Moon" by The Hush Sound. I recommend that you listen to this song, because it is really beautiful and the sound works really well with the chapter. I tweaked some of the lyrics so that they better fit in the story, but it is mostly the same.

I lay in bed, wrapped in a cocoon of blankets, staring at the spot where Edward used to sleep. I hadn't touched his side of the bed, or his pillow. I hadn't moved anything from his cluttered nightstand, and I hadn't even moved his striped tie from the window seat. I remember he had worn that on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and I had tied it for him.

Alice and Emmet had both called multiple times in an attempt to get me out of the house, but I had no desire to leave. I was afraid that if I left, I would come back and everything would be different. I could feel Edward in the house; his presence was overpowering and calming. He was still here with me.

I blinked and suddenly I saw him. Standing by the doorway with his back against the wall; smiling at me. Unnatural shadows swirled around him as he stepped closer to me. "Edward." I whispered, getting up and holding my arms around to him. "I feel so alone, Edward." I cried as his arms encircled around me. "I miss you. Do you miss me?" He merely nodded as we stood together, locked in a warm embrace. "You're so close….but we're so far apart." I was being kept from him by the one thing I could never change. I was alive and living, but he was dead and gone.

Shadows all around you as you surface from the dark

Emerging from the gentle grip of nights unfolding arms

Darkness, darkness, everywhere, do you feel all alone?
The subtle grace of gravity, the heavy weight of stone

"You were everything." I murmured. "You were my light. The only thing keeping me from darkness." I sobbed. Edward's hand ran through my hair, but he didn't speak. "Don't you see how important you were to me? How beautiful you were?" I suppressed a sob and turned to bury my face in Edward's chest.

You don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear

It floods the sky and blurs the darkness, like a chandelier

All the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seas

The shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe

"You're gone." I whispered clinging to him. "But you don't have to leave." I was sobbing now, a complete mess. "Stay with me!" I begged, sinking to the floor. Edward slid down next to me, holding me against him. "Why can't you see how important you were to me? Can't you see how much I need you?" Edward's lips traveled up my jaw and to my ear, his breath cold. "Please don't leave me again."

"Let go, Bella." He whispered, and I closed my eyes. "Just….let me go." I opened my eyes, and he was gone.

I will bring the mirror, so silver, so exact

So precise and so pristine, a perfect pane of glass

I will set the mirror up to face the blackened sky

So you can see your beauty every morning that you rise

I stayed on the floor, staring straight ahead. I needed to feel him again. I started to climb into bed and was suddenly overwhelmed with the emotions that overcame me. I gently ran my hand over Edward's side of the bed, skimming the surface. Electricity surged through my arm, and I shuddered. How many times had we slept here, snuggled together? Made love in this very bed? Talked for hours, not bothering to sleep?

I stood up as fast as I could and bolted down the hall, bursting into the first door I came to. I almost threw up when I realized what room I was in. Edward's office. I fell to the floor, sobbing and curling up into a ball.

I don't know how long I stayed there, but I eventually fell asleep and woke up still huddled on the floor. Legs shaking, I stood and looked around. I never went in Edward's office. It was pretty boring, simple and basic. A desk sat in the corner, with a laptop in the corner. Almost every inch of the far wall was covered in pictures, mostly of the two of us. I smiled and ran my hands over the smooth, perfect glass.

In the first and most recent picture, Edward stood behind me and slightly to my left, his arms wrapped around me. I was smiling at the camera, a serene look in my eyes. But Edward wasn't looking at the camera, he was looking down at me with the most…loving expression I had ever seen. Blinking back tears, I looked at the next picture.

We were in Disney World, riding the Rock n' Roller coaster at MGM. We were both screaming and clutching hands. I smiled at the happy memories and moved to the next.

The premiere we had gone public at. Edward was whispering something in my ear, both of us oblivious to everyone around us. I was looking up at him, amused, a smile playing on my lips. Then the next, and the next, and the next.

Edward and I at Relay for Life, proudly walking around the track. Well, Edward was walking, and I was content in his arms, both of us laughing. I remembered Rosalie had been the one to take the picture.

Emmet, Rosalie, Edward, and I at the St. Louis Science Center, posing goofily with the dinosaur exhibit.

The two of us playing in the play park at McDonalds.

Esme, Carlisle, Edward, and I on the deck of the Cullen's yacht. I was sitting on Edward's lap, and he was putting a captains hat on my head.

Edward and I in Millennium Park, kissing in front of the fountain; my legs wrapped around his waist.

Edward spinning me around in the air at Six Flags.

Several candid shots of the two of us at Alice's wedding. Me feeding Edward a bite of cake, Edward playfully covering my eyes as Jasper took Alice's garter off, Edward licking frosting off my fingers, me dancing on Edward's feet.

All of the Cullen's, plus me, Jasper, Emmet, and Rosalie in Las Vegas, smiling broadly as we all played blackjack together. Edward had won most of the hands, and I had lost terribly.

Edward and I both kissing Shamu's head at Sea World, both of us in wet suits and drenched.

It felt terrible to remember all these things when all I wanted was the man I had shared these experiences with. Edward. I wanted Edward, nothing more.

A/N: I really wanted to describe some photos here to relay the relationship between Edward and Bella. I know this chapter was a bit confusing so message me or review with anything you need to know if you have any questions. I always reply to messages!
