"3….2…..1! Happy New Years!" Bella's smile is radiant as I lean in to kiss her sweet lips, when all of sudden I feel a tug on my arm causing me to turn quickly crashing into a pair of overbearing lips.

The mystery intruder ran their hands through my hair before I could collect myself and push the rude, inconsiderate ….Lauren. She came at me again but Bella quickly stepped in front of me, pushing Laruen into the frigid water of the pool.

I heard a snickering coming from behind me, so I turned around to tell the jerk to mind his own business, when I saw Jacob Black rubbing his now red cheek and a wide grin spreading across his face.

No….he wouldn't do that would he? He couldn't be that stupid, could he? My questions were answered when one of his friends gave him a high five, saying 'way to go man'.

I didn't even wait for a rational thought, I just charged. I knocked him once in the jaw good before he realized I was even there.

He stumbled back a bit before his face turned to stone and he lunged back at me. We kept throwing punches before Emmett grabbed me from behind, as did one of Jacob's friends for him.

"You stay the hell away from her!" The venom pouring from my words as I wiped away the blood that ran from my lip.

"Why don't you give her the choice? Maybe she likes my kisses better than yours." A smug smile spread across his face again. I shrugged out of Emmett's grip and got right up to Jacob's face.

"Because she is mine and I swear to God if you even fantasize about laying even a finger on her, I will find you and make you beg for mercy."

"What is she a piece of meat to you? You talk like you own her, but you don't. And you are leaving so I am just showing her, her options." I was ready to hit him again but Bella came and stood in between us much like she had before between Lauren and me.

"Jacob Black, stay away from me." Was all she said before she took my hand and led me out of the party, as every eye followed us. Bella didn't look back until we got to the car; letting out an exasperated sigh she leaned her small frame against the car.

The minutes passes slowly as we both stood there neither of us saying anything, just staring at our feet. After awhile I couldn't take it anymore.

"Do you want to get out of here? Charlie isn't expecting you home for another 40 minutes." She just nodded her head and climbed into the car. The silence was once again resumed as I drove to the secluded park where I knew that nobody would be.

"Will you say something please? I can't handle the silence anymore." I finally said as we walked down the dimly lit path of the park towards the swing sets.

"I don't want you to go. I don't want to have to deal with Laruen and her friends on my own. I don't want to have to spend weekends at home by myself because I will be so busy missing you. I don't want to lose you." Her eyes finally met mine and they held anger in them, not directed towards me but rather the word for putting us in this situation.

"And you think that I want to leave? My whole world is here, you are here! I have fought to stay, I have fought harder then you could ever imagine! You make it sound like I chose for this to happen, well news flash I didn't." I don't think I had meant to snap at her but I was still riled up from the fight and the stress of these last few weeks that it just happened. Her face turned to an unresponsive stone, void of any emotion.

"Well maybe it just wasn't meant for us to be together. I am not denying that you love me and that I love you but maybe fate has a different plan for us. Maybe we aren't perfect matches for each other…..maybe the girl you are meant for is in Chicago."

"Bella……"

"No really Edward, just sometimes it just doesn't work out like everyone thought it would. I mean look at Charlie and Renee, they thought they were perfect for each other but it just didn't work out. Too many odds against them…..against us."

I grabbed her face roughly and stared into her eyes fiercely.

"No you listen to me Bella. You are the only girl for me, and we will work this all out. Now you may be the perfect girl for me but maybe you feel that I am not the one for you. And that's okay Bella but just so you know that I will never forget you until you command it of me."

Tears began to form in her eyes as her cold exterior broke and she threw her arms around my neck crying into my shoulder as I stroked her hair.

"I am just so scared Edward. I just love you so much that it hurts to think about not being in your arms anymore."

"Oh, Bella you will never have to worry about that because I will always find a way to have you in my arms."

The remainder of the night was spent in the park, holding each other and crying at the unknown. After I told Bella that I would be back at her house tomorrow afternoon to hangout, I drove home quickly to consult Alice on some dyer manners.
