Wedding Ring

Now that we're back to Forks, only for a short while, I need to sort everything out first before I would talk to Edward. He has been trying to get me to talk to him lately, even though all I'm doing is focusing on Renesmee. It's not that he's invading my personal space – although it happens quite a lot now that I'm here – he is just too persistent into trying to 'fix' our marriage by forcing me to talk to him that I don't want to spend my time with him. I know that he is old fashioned, but this is just too much. A wife is not a servant. A wife is someone that you'd cherish more than yourself, and apparently ever since I've became his wife, he only cared about his needs than mine. I couldn't believe that it had taken me that long to realize it. Now that I know, there is no way I'm going back to him. He can try as much as he'd want to, but enough is enough.

"Bella! Wait!"

I groan inwardly. Can't he just leave me alone for at least five minutes? Well here's a thing, he won't. I turn around to see him approaching me. I watch as his eyes flicker over my body, then up at my face with that crooked smile that I used to love. I don't know what he's thinking, and I don't want to know either. This is Edward, a different Edward than he was used to be during the non-drama state. I just don't really like this, at all. But what can I say now, when he's approaching me with that crooked smile of his, thinking that he could swoon me once more? I suppress my sigh and turn my head to look away, just in time to avoid him planting a kiss upon my lips. Even if the paper said I belong to him, but in my own opinion I don't.

"What is it Edward?" I asked tiredly. I take a chance to glance briefly at his face, and it has contorted up in a painful expression. He had it coming, and if he could just treat me like he had been treating me before we were even married, then everything would be fine. Right now, everything is not fine, and I'm worried about Renesmee more than him at this moment.

"What happened to us, Bella? We used to be inseperable." He said, and his eyes held more sorrow than I thought they would. He has to dig himself another big hole, did he?

"You almost killed me because you refused to listen to me, Edward. I don't have your trust anymore, and what is the point in carrying on this relationship if I don't have your trust? Or you don't have mine? I think it is time for us to break this marriage and find someone that we truly belong with.."

This talk would happen sooner anyway, now that I'm here. I don't like breaking things up over a letter, or a phone call. I have to do it face to face, and if he couldn't handle it, just like he is trying to right now, then I would let him have some time to think it through. My decision is final though, I'm in love with Alice, not him. When Alice makes me feel safe, secured, and loved; Edward gives me the opposite effect. I couldn't believe myself that I actually used him to get close to Alice. When I think about it though, I was oblivious to the fact that I'm even aware of my feelings for Alice. In a way, Edward helped me realize the truth, and I couldn't be more grateful to him. Yet, right now, he's just being a little too pushy.

"But you belong to me." His tone is slowly raising, and I think he's going to lose control of his slowly rising temper soon. And right now, I've already lost it. I can't believe that he didn't even listen to what I just said! I said 'with' not 'to'. I belong to no one. I'm not an object to be claimed!

"Edward, I said 'find someone that we truly belong with', not to! You don't listen to me, that's another reason why I want this marriage to end!" I half screamed at him. By now I have totally forgotten that we're in the house, with everyone at home.

"Either way, you belong to me!" Edward shouted and moved forth. He is fast, and yet I'm still faster and stronger than him. He makes a move to grab me, I move out of his way to let him grab the air instead. By now we are snarling at each other, while I'm doing both snarling and snapping my teeth at him to warn him to stay away from me.

"Come to me, Bella!" He snarled demandingly, launching himself at me again only for me to counter it by stepping away. By now I can sense everyone in this particular part of the house; in between the stairs and the front door. I could of gone out, but that would prove that I'm weak against him. I so do not want him to think that he has the power over me.

"You're nothing but a demanding jerk! I can't believe that I've married you! I want a divorce! !" I shouted angrily at him. I was going to take this whole divorce subject in a softer approach, but Edward pushes me to the point that I can't take things easily when I'm around him now. He's making it so difficult for me to have a decent conversation with him. Why must he be so freaking difficult now!

"Bella dear, you need to be calm." Esme said soothingly as she slowly moving over to my side. I will myself to calm down, and look over to her with a small smile.

"Esme, I can't continue this marriage anymore. A marriage has to have love, this marriage obviously doesn't."

"I love you!" Edward screamed at me. My eyes become hard, and I snap my head around just to look at him sternly in the eyes. He flinches at the look of pure anger in my eyes, and if I could at the moment, I'd stomp over and slap the living hell out of him.

"If you love me, you wouldn't even try to hurt me while I was a human!" I snarled at him, and he flinched once again. He opens up his mouth, probably to argue some more, but I would have none of it right now. "Besides, I've fallen out of love for you! It wouldn't be fair for neither of us to continue this marriage when one doesn't love the other. Now stop being a child, Edward! We were only infatuated with each other, never really been in love."

He growls then, and his body begins to shake. I'm not afraid of him, even without the family here restraining him, I'm certainly not afraid of him. "I was not infatuated with you!"

I've had enough. I let out my last growl for the day, lift up my wedding hand and pull out the golden band that I've received at the wedding ceremony. I clench the ring in my palm, not really trying to break it even though that I could. I look down at it, then look up at him and frown.

"Here, have this back! It doesn't belong to me anymore." I threw the ring at him, watching it hit his chest. I huff rather loudly, and turn on my heels and left the room. I need air; fresh air. I need to get out of this place, and just be on my own little bubble to relax. Edward has done enough for today to make me angry, and surely I don't want anyone to be around me when I'm on the verge to destroy absolutely everything at the moment. Hanging around the Volturi guards is a bad influence, and now I'm beginning to think like them.

I enter the forest in a short amount of time, sprinting my way through the woods as fast as I can. I'd love to feel some adrenaline rush right now, but too bad I have to be a vampire and be used to all of this speed, and strength. When I know that I'm so far away from Forks, far enough that I can see the Canadian border, I let myself collide with the tree ahead of it. It makes a loud, cracking noise as its beginning to break, but I certainly don't care. I collapse with the tree when it hits the ground, and I just lay there trying to calm myself down as much as I possibly could. Certainly this tree doesn't deserve my wrath for Edward. Certainly this forest doesn't deserve any of my wrath for Edward. At least that ring is gone, and I don't feel like I have to live up to his standards anymore. At least I don't feel like I'm his wife, then again I've stopped feeling like that long ago.

An hour goes by; three…six. I'm almost calm. Never thought that it would take me this long to calm myself down with the fresh air, and the fresh scent of nature. I need to hunt, I need to kill something to fully calm myself, and to tame the raging thirst at the moment now that I'm somewhat calm. I squeeze my eyes shut, heave in a sigh before releasing it, and opening my eyes. Well, I didn't quite expect to see the most gorgeous face on this god forsaken world. I didn't even hear or smell her scent.

"Hunting time darling?" Alice murmured softly with a smile. I push myself up, and grin at her. She is the only exception to see me right now.

"Let's go."

With those two final words, we set off into the woods. I know I will be fine when Alice is with me. I don't suppose I would want her to leave me, ever.
