A/N: I am updating b/c a certain person (ADIDASGRL328) was bugging me about it for the entire week!! I hate you Jordi B...
LOL; Enjoy the chapter and review.
Princess Isabella's POV
I was here; I was so close now...my heart sped up, beating so loud that if anyone were her with me, they surely would have heard it. I sighed, remembering, or rather becoming aware of the fact, that I was alone. The fact that Edward wasn't there holding me like before; He wasn't there, leading the way...and it made me feel unsafe. But I didn't plan on being away from Edward for long...
On top of my already overpowering misery, it was also freezing cold in the graveyard. I already felt numb all over...but there were other pains, far worse than that. There was that anxious pain in my heart, making my heart beat even louder the closer I got to Edward's grave; That feeling that I couldn't shake, that feeling of waiting for the pain that would indefinately come soon. And the only thing that made these pains somewhat bareable, was the comforting thought that my pain would soon be over. But still...a heavy burden of guilt weighed upon my shoulders. And this is the pain that I felt the most, deep inside my soul, eating me alive...
But it had to be done, right? Some part of me said yes, while the other was unsure. But still, at the time, I wanted to believe that there were no other options. I wanted to believe that I wouldn't be missed...I wanted to die. I tightened my cloak around me as I shivered in fear of myself. A few tears rolled down my cheeks as I took a deep breath, telling myself over and over that I was ready. I could do this...
I actually got a little excited; Maybe he would be there waiting for me and he would hold me and everything could be just like it was before...or not.
Even though I knew that that would be impossible, I still got my heart crushed by disappointment as I walked closer to the grave. My breaths grew shallow as I stuggled to keep myself standing, willing my knees to keep it up just a little longer, but of course they failed me once again. My knees buckled under me, just like yesterday, only now the fall down seemed to hurt twice as much. I cried again not even bothering to look at the name; I knew it would only bring me more pain. I cried a little less, but somehow it seemed to hurt more...without Edward there to hold me.
But somehow I managed to stop crying on my own. There was no point in in now. This would all be over soon enough.
Edward's POV
As I let the voice carry me where it would, I realized exactly where I was headed; Why was she going there any way? It was just making her miserable...making her cry harder. And the closer I came, the louder her cry became, each sob further breaking my heart. I broke out into a run, but it still wasn't fast enough.
But eventually I did get there and I was standing over her, watching her from a far and wishing I could be there to hold and comfort her. She looked so alone, so miserable and so helpless...in so much pain. She was much to beautiful to cry like that; She deserved so much more and yet I continued to cause her so much pain and misery.
I was so absorbed in my own personal grief and guilt, I hadn't even noticed when Bella stopped crying.
"Bella?" I asked out loud even though I knew she couldn't hear me not matter how loud I called. "Are better now?" I whispered softly in a pained voice. But I just couldn't-wouldn't- stand and watch Bella cry like that. I prayed that she would be okay. Bui I knew that it was almost impossible.
I obviously wasn't expecting an answer, but I certainly wasn't expecting this either...
Priness Isabella's POV
I was done crying. For now and hopefully for eternity. I wiped my face and after a few sniffles, breathed in the cold air. The sun was just about setting now; And it was only then that I realized how long I really was gone. But that didn't matter now. Because by tomorrow...I wouldn't be here.
It was very to clear to me what I had to do. Maybe I had known it would end like this all along, but I was too afraid to actually do it. As soon as I was certain I could walk and carry myself, I stood up and stared directly ahead.
But the more I thought about what I was about to do and how much it would hurt...the more I realized that I would never be able to do it. It seemed so selfish and I wasn''t a selfish person, was I? But...maybe I was selfish enough to take my own life...?
But I just couldn't stand to live this thing they called "life" anymore. It was already miserable when I thought Edward was dead and never coming back, but it seemed like today, after that huge disappointment, that my misery had grown and was too heavy for me to handle. And now, there was that temptation of being so close to Edward. Because now, I feared nothing except maybe the pain I knew wouldn't last and now I knew that Edward would be there waiting for me and ready and willing to spend the rest of eternity with me.
It was settled; I would forever leave this place. Eternally and forever...
A/N: HA! Cliffhanger! Review or else you won't get da next chapter that is already written and on my computer!!
