Step one you say we need to talk, he walks you say sit down, it's just a talk. He smiles politely back at you. You stare politely right on through. Meeting on a bus, Edward and Bella are immediately attracted to each other but their gloomy, abuse-ridden pasts make them both hesitant to trust anyone. Follow them as Bella learns not only how to save a life, but hers is saved as well.

46. Chapter 45

"It isn't," he says and I look up at him.

He can see that I don't agree and he sighs. "Do you wanna know how I know it isn't your fault?"

I nod, still crying and I look away, ashamed.

"Hey," he says softly and I look at him. "Let me ask you something," he says and I nod, unable to speak at the moment.

"Did you want your mum to leave?" He asks.

My breath hitches.

I understand now; I get it.

I didn't want all those things to happen. I didn't make mum leave; she did that on her own.

"No," I shake my head, sighing with relief.

It wasn't my fault.

Smiles.

It wasn't her fault.

Um, I made a bit of a mistake back at that memory of Renee walking out... (Chapter 32) she's twenty-six at that time, making them 18 when they had her.

Yeah, um you can't REALLY have a child at 12...

please review :D
