Chapter 14

Disclaimer: you know what? having to say I don't own Twilight all the time is really getting to me…I DON'T OWN TWILIGHT, OKAY! There, I admitted it

This chapter is Edward's POV

I paced around my mansion absently. I hadn't really done anything but that these past two weeks. Without Bella there's no inspiration for me to play the piano, I can't read; every heroine reminds me of her, drinking is just way too pathetic and depressing, and I couldn't really hang out with Emmett and Jasper, I was too much of a downer on everyone.

Jasper comes over to check on me every now and then, and I take the opportunity to rant about how depressed I am without Bella. To be honest all I want to do is go find Bella and tell her how much I love her, but Jasper tells me I shouldn't. He says I have to give her time to figure out her problems and come to me. As if, I doubt she would ever come to me, not after all the horrible things I've said to her, she probably thinks I'm some kind of monster.

That's the real reason I can't go see her, I don't think I could deal with the look of hatred I know I would receive.

What made it even worse was the fact that I knew I deserved that hatred, I knew that Bella got easily upset, and instead of taking it my stride I started shouting at her. God, truthfully if it was possible to kill yourself in Heaven I'd probably be dead now.

Ding Dong, the door bell echoed around the house. I sighed, probably Jasper again, come to reassure me that 'everything would work out eventually'.

I flung the door open, "for gods sake Jasper, leave me alone!"

"umm…Jasper's with Alice." Came the heavenly voice I had missed so much these past weeks.

"Bella." Her name fell from my lips like a prayer; my goddess was back, "what are you doing here?"

"I…I…I'm soooo sorry Edward, I know everything you said was true…I was just the most self centered, selfish person ever…but I'm going to change, I have changed….because…because…" she started to cry, and I stepped closer to her, wiping her tears away:

"Because?"

"Because I'm in love with you Edward." She blurted out, before biting her lip, "but I completely understand if you don't feel the same way." She spun around to walk away, before I unfroze, the glorious shock of her words wearing off only slightly. I caught her wrist and pulled her close to me, so that I could feel the gentle rise and fall of her chest against mine.

"Thank God Bella, thank God, I've loved you for so long, and I've been waiting to love you for longer."

"You love me? After what I did? How can you?"

"the same way you can love me after what I did. Neither of us is perfect, but we're perfect together."

Bella blushed, looking down at her feet. I raised her chin up and pressed her to me, kissing her softly, letting her know how much I'd missed her touch. Apparently this wasn't enough for Bella; she forced her lips harder on mine, and reached up to tangle her fingers in my hair. I gasped, we hadn't kissed like this before; although I certainly wasn't complaining, if I'd known it would be like this I would have done it much sooner. I slid my tongue across her bottom lip and she gasped, allowing me to slip my tongue into her mouth, we kissed like this for a while before Bella pulled away to breath,

"I love you, I love you, I love you." She murmured fervently as I kissed along her jaw, her throat, her collar bone; unlike her I had thought to wish for the ability to never need to breath. So it made sense that I didn't stop kissing her until I heard a very loud squeal.

Alice, she had obviously known what Bella was coming to tell me, and decided to follow her, I frowned as I realized that Jasper was there too, looking more than a little uncomfortable. "OMG, Jasper, we did it! They're together!" she screeched, before leaping into a very surprised Jasper's arms, locking her legs around her waist, and kissing him.

"What the fuck?"

I know, its very short, but hey, it was written in breaks from studying. (exams are over now YAY! :D) I hope you like how I got them back together.
