Edward,
I've been trying to write this for the last few days and I always end up deleting it and am left wordless.
As much as I'd like to believe you and your intentions, you'll forgive me if I'm having a hard time doing so? I mean, it took you eight years to figure out how you feel about me, and only when you were faced with me taking a plane across the Atlantic.
The plane ride over was long. I cried. A lot. A nice French lady who was going home to her family from a business trip was very nice, offering me words of wisdom. Although, I don't remember anything that was said that day.
All I remember was your words. And even now, I don't think I really heard them. I keep thinking it was a dream, or a nightmare. Not sure which.
Paris is... Paris. It's beautiful, European, stylish, old. The colors here are vibrant, the smells in the air, the people (some nice, some not so nice)... it all makes up what people equally love and hate about this place. I can see the Eiffel Tower from my room. Well, kinda. My view is blocked by another building, but it's there.
My painting classes start tomorrow. I'm nervous. I feel like I'm out of my league.
-Bella
PS- For the record, there's a part of me that doesn't want you to give up.

A/N: I'll be back late tonight. Holy Week is stressful for me, since I do a lot of singing at my church. Tonight, tomorrow night and Saturday night, I'll be home pretty late. I may only be able to do one update the next few days. They'll all be in email format.
Thanks to all of you for all your support and reviews.
BTW, Ange D'Laube has outdone herself once again and made me a beautiful banner and blinkie set for DELAY. Check it out on my blog diamondheart78 dot blogspot dot com.
Fic Rec: Exposure by RandomCran and her hubby, MOG. Seriously. Great story, love the sharp writing. It's still early in the story, but it's already off to a very interesting start. Check it out!
