. never ones for happy endings .
You left me tattered and torn
Just like that Spanish doll
But now no matter where I go
I always seem to return
Spanish doll: busca me (find me)
To where you left me tattered and torn
Edward doesn't realize, or maybe he just doesn't realize it yet. It's all a matter of perspective really, whether or not he did have his heart torn out, leaving mere tatters behind.
That's what he gives Bella, he doesn't realize that for years now his heart belongs to another.
He was lying when he said he prefers brunettes, blonds were always more interesting.
And he's unsure, whether its the way she swung her hips or the way she would flip her hair, or the supple curve of her hips, the fullness of her lips, the exaggerated and very attractive breasts she possesses, or perhaps it's the sex appeal she appears to ooze without any effort whatsoever; but somewhere along that very thin line things got extremely blurred and he let something important get lost to her. To Rosalie.
But simply put, he hasn't realized it yet. That's why whenever he thinks back, revisits that place in his mind where there are what ifs and could have beens. He doesn't know why it's like that. And damn, he really wishes that he knew why there's always that tinge of regret, that he's lost a chance for happiness somewhere along the line.
So when he finds himself in bed with an nude Rosalie draped across his equally nude self, does he realize just what he's been missing out on, and just what he's done wrong. Only now, does he see his errors, the wrong paths he's taken.
And then she says into the silence, "We never were ones for happy endings, were we Edward?"
FIN.
