Last time..
I smiled at her but as she shut my bedroom door, I couldn't help but wonder if I had done the right thing and if I really should have left.
B POV
I sighed as I saw sun light leaking from my window. I glanced over at my alarm clock and groaned. 7:30am. I heard a knock at my door and groaned, looking over.
"Go away." I whispered.
I heard a laugh before my door opened.
"So she's like you Phoebe, she's not a morning person." Paige said with a smile.
"Oh shush." Phoebe snapped.
I sighed and looked over as I watched Piper, Paige and Phoebe walk in.
"Morning sweetie. It's time to get up today we're going to work on your princess duties." Piper said gently as she sat on my bed.
"I don't want to." I whispered with a sigh.
"Don't worry, I think you will like it!" Paige said.
I sighed and looked at them.
"Oh fine. I'm getting up." I whispered.
They nodded and smiled as they walked out of the room. I sighed and pulled my feet from the warm blanket and placed them on the floor. I took a deep breath. This was going to be a long day, I glanced over at my suitcase, realising I hadn't really unpacked. I walked over to it, opening it. My eyes glanced at the wooden chest, almost drawn to it. I sighed again and pulled it out, walking over to my bed again. I gently set the box down and took a deep breath as I opened the lid.
I picked up the CD first and with shaky hands I placed it in the big boom box on my book case. I smiled a little as the song played, but not just any song, my lullaby. I sighed and walked back over to the box. I picked up the pictures as a tear slid down my cheek. The first picture on the pile was the one with Alice, Edward and I at the prom. I smiled sadly at them, we all looked so happy. The next was one of Edward and I, standing in the living room that Charlie took. A sob leaked through my lips as I stared at it. That was one of the last days we spent together. I gasped as a piece of paper slipped through the pictures and fell to the floor. Reaching down I picked it up and opened it, gasping as a ring fell from the paper.
Dear Bella,
My sweet trusting little lamb. I really don't know if you will ever find this and read this, some piece of me wants you to find it and know the truth. I'm so selfish, I know I promised you that I would leave you with a clean break, but I want you to know that everything I said in the woods was a lie, I still love you Bella, I always will. But you're always in danger with me and if something happened to you because of me...I wouldn't be able to live Bella, I would die without you Bella, which is why I had to lie, I have to protect you.
Please know that I am so sorry by Jasper's actions, and he is deeply sorry as well, but that was the wake up call I needed, you can't be safe around me Bella. I would get you into danger, I would kill you some day. You're already talking about wanting me to Damn your soul, to make you walk in the shadows of the night, and I can't do it. I can't damn you like that.
Everyone will miss you Bella. We all loved you...No, we all LOVE you. We always will. Even Rosalie, you were the sister that completed her family. I know that if you've found this letter you've found the CD. I know it started with only one song, your lullaby, but it now contains two. I wrote another song for you Bella, that you inspired. I don't know if I'm doing right by all of this, but it was the only thing I could think of. Good-bye me sweet little lamb, please don't hurt yourself. Stay out of danger Bella. I am leaving something with you though, it explains the ring too. I'm leaving my heart with you. Take care of it, this was the wedding ring that belongs to the love of my life, my soul mate, my reason for existing, so there for it belongs to you.
I will always Love you,
Edward Cullen.
Tears where flowing freely now as I heard the next song start playing on the CD player.
Would you dance
if I asked you to dance?
Would you run
and never look back?
Would you cry
if you saw me cry?
And would you save my soul, tonight?
Would you tremble
if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh?
Oh please tell me this.
Now would you die
for the one you loved?
Hold me in your arms, tonight.
I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.
Would you swear
that you'll always be mine?
Or would you lie?
would you run and hide?
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care...
You're here tonight.
I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.
Oh, I just want to hold you.
I just want to hold you.
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care...
You're here tonight.
I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by your forever.
You can take my breath away.
I can be your hero.
I can kiss away the pain.
And I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.
You can take my breath away.
I can be your hero.
I broke down then, he did love me. He lied to protect me...I fell onto my pillow and cried before I heard my door open.
"Isabella?" Piper whispered before she shut the door and rushed over to me.
She wrapped her arms around me, holding me tightly too her. She just let me cry as she held me, not even asking a question, I liked it that way, it made everything much better. I didn't want to talk about it, at least not right now, so with her not asking it gave me time to think. So I just laid there, crying. The sobbing filled the room before it finally died down after at least 45 minutes.
"Sweet heart are you okay?" Piper asked.
I took a deep breath, looking at her with tears still filling my eyes. That's when I told her, I told her everything, from meeting Edward and the Cullen's and falling in love with them, to what happened on my eighteenth birthday, I even told her how they were Vampires. And, she just listened, nodding occasionally. It never felt so good to get it off my chest and at the end I was definitely ready to learn the princess stuff, maybe today wouldn't be as bad of a day as I thought it would be.
