Something to Say (Part 2)

I waited for Bella's tears to slow down before I continued. I also needed a moment to relax, to clear my mind of the human memories that seemed clearer then they should be.

"I stood with Uncle Carlisle for about seventy-four years after my transformation, before I left to study in different colleges. I came back seventeen years later and found my uncle in Chicago, Illinois. The area was highly infected with the Spanish Influenza, and my uncle was one of the doctors working to try and save some of the people. When I arrived, he was working with a patient, who was only seventeen..." I trailed off and she looked up, her eyes wide.

"You...You knew Edward as a human?" She asked and I sighed before nodding.

"I'm sure you are familiar with the term, 'singer', am I correct?" I asked her before standing and turning towards her.

"Yes. It's the person who's blood sings to a vampire." She answered and I looked down. She stared at me for a few minutes before standing. "Edward....he was your singer, wasn't he?" She asked.

"Yes...he was. I visited him every day, we talked for many hours, and many times, I would sing him to sleep. Like Edward is protective of you, I was protective of him. Like he wants nothing but you to be happy, I wanted nothing but for him to be happy." Her eyes slowly grew as her fingers curled into fists.

"You love him don't you?" She asked quietly and I slowly looked up before turning.

"I wanted to tell you myself. Yes, I do love him, after so many years of not seeing him, I thought that my love had faded for him, but I had blocked any feelings I felt for him. I didn't realize that I still loved him until a few moments ago." I turned back towards her and I could tell that she was angry, but she was trying horribly to hide it. "Be angry with me if you wish, but I will not try to take him away from you. He is truly happy with you and I don't want to take his happiness away." She blinked a few times before looking up at me. "He is deeply in love with you Isabella. I wish you both nothing but the best. I swear." I smiled softly at her and she began to cry.

"Why aren't you fighting for him?" She asked and my eyebrows knitted together in confusion.

"I beg your pardon?" I asked and she flung her arm outwards.

"Why aren't you fighting for him?! You knew him before me! You're worthy to be with him!" She shouted and I simply stared at her before laughing. "Why are you laughing?" She asked and I stopped.

"I'm worthy to be with him? Bella, what are you talking about?" I asked and she sat down holding her head in her hands.

"He's beautiful, caring, and loving...a person like me shouldn't be with a man like him..." She whispered and I sat down beside her.

"And who said that?" I asked and she looked up at me. "Bella, you are beautiful, you are caring, and you love him. From what you just told me, you're a perfect match for him." I chuckled and she smiled slightly. "Don't let what I told you tonight strain your love for him. You deserve to be with him, and he deserves to be with you." I said and she looked down at the floor before nodding.

"Thank you for telling me, Elena." She said and I smiled before patting her back.

"Bella?" We both looked up hearing Edward's voice calling for her.

"No problem." I said as I stood up and went back towards the windows.

"Where are you going?" She asked, standing up as well. I looked back at her before waving my hand slightly.

"I haven't gone hunting and I'm terribly hungry. Your scent isn't helping me much." I chuckled as she shifted uncomfortably. "If anyone asks, you know what to tell them."

I pushed myself lightly off the ledge and landed on a tree branch a few feet away from the house. I stopped to take in the salty yet sweet smell of the dew in the air, before continuing on forward into the forest.
