How to Save a Life

by bexie25

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.

129. Chapter 128

"Please," I whisper, begging Edward. He's eyeing his mother, the only true mother he's ever had. "Baby, please. I can't-I won't let you do this on your own."

"I can't let anything happen to you," he whispers, wrenching his eyes away from the sight of his parents. He looks at me and I nearly cry out at what I see; tears and pain, he's broken. "I love you and I'm supposed to protect you from this kind of thing. You're not supposed to be with someone like me…"

He falls back onto the couch, holding his head in his hands and I kneel down in between his parted legs.

I pry his hands away from his head and angle his face so that he is looking at me. "I love you and I belong with you… why can't you see that?"

Please review... are you surprised that I haven't said that for the other chapters? Tehehe... I am.

Hope you like where this is going. I know I'm dragging this out, but... Yeah. Can't stop that right now.
