Chapter 8- Tear With the Wind
I woke up with the sun shining in my face. I just realized that I was sleeping near a cliff, the cliff that was above the beautiful blue-green ocean. I knew where I was now, near La Push, well, not so far. I started to walk down the way up to the cliff when I heard someone saying my name.
"BELLA!" He sounded terrifying, so I ran back up, I was being stupid at the moment. I ran to the tip-top of the cliff realizing there was a long fall. I would have just jumped, but I remembered last time I did that, and it didn't end well.
"BELLA!" I turned around and backed up, but the voice faded away. I began thinking about Edward. Too much to lose now, I don't want to die now. I wanted a life with Edward. More tears streamed down my face. I want him with me now!
"Edward!"
Na na na na
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
Be with myself in center, clarity, peace, serenity
Chorus: I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And not gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've gotta get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry, Don't cry, Don't cry
The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending do they
And I forseek the dark ahead if I stay
Chorus
Like a little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
I'll be your best friend
And you'll be my valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cuz I wanna hold yours too
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself in center, clarity, peace, serenity
Chorus
Na na na na na
I sniffed my last tear as I got up and walked back down the cliff. I saw something move through the woods. I was scared out of my wits. I started to back up towards the cliff's edge. Right there, I didn't notice the cliff edge, and slipped off the side.
"Ah!" I was lucky enough to have caught the edge with my hand. I couldn't pull myself up. I didn't know what to do. I closed my eyes hoping for survival, a ranger to help me, someone. As my hand lost its grip and I started to fall, I heard someone scream my name as in terror.
"BELLA!"
