Angelgirl,
I hope you don't mind that I'm emailing you every day. I notice you don't reply to every single one and I hope it's not making you all weird with me. You'll have to bear with me while I figure out how to woo you from 3,628 miles away.
The last couple of weeks have kinda sucked. Besides not having you near me, ever since you left, I've chewed out my sister, Em, and Alice. I lost my temper with them since they confessed to knowing about how you felt for years and not telling me anything. They swore up and down that you had sworn them to secrecy. I think that's ludicrous.
Why wouldn't you want me to know, B? Better yet, how did you expect me to know how you felt? You have to admit, you didn't do a lot of communicating with me when it counted. I almost feel like I was sabotaged... destined for failure in your eyes.
You tell me you're in love with me and hours later you're on a plane? I didn't even know about this fellowship. How can you call me your best friend if you couldn't even share your good news with me, but Ali and Rose and Em knew all along?
Bella, I'm trying not to put the blame on you completely, but was I supposed to just read your mind? It breaks me to think how you must've felt all these years seeing me with other girls. But then again, you dated guys too. I'm so confused.
Now that I see us with clarity, I'm reliving some memories and connecting the dots. So many signs were there, and I was too stupid, or blind, or I don't know... self-absorbed, to notice what I was doing to you. And for that, I'm sorry.
I miss you. I miss you so damn much, I can't even think about anything else. Classes began 3 weeks ago, and I can't even focus.
I'm counting down the days when you'll be back here, close to me. I don't know if you'll want anything to do with me when you return, but I hope you give me a chance.
I love you.
Edward.
PS- Things with the gang are ok now. I apologized for throwing a tantrum like an overgrown baby, and they apologized for keeping things from me. I know they were caught in the middle of all this. They're thrilled that everything's out in the open now, btw. They just want to see both of us happy- either together, or apart. Although I'm hoping for the former, and not the latter.
A/N: I'll try to update at least once tomorrow. Goodnight ;)
