Knowing

by CLWN

They both know, but will either one admit it? After more than two years apart can Bella and Edward find their way back to each other? Sometimes, knowing just isn't enough. Edward and Bella. Exactly 100 words per chapter, more of a writing exercise than anything else. But I like it. Stephenie Meyer owns Twilight and all its characters.

16. Chapter 16

Jake's talking about…, something,

I don't know what.

Because I'm not listening.

I'm thinking about Friday night,

About Edward.

He knows I love him.

I didn't tell him,

He just knows.

But knowing's not enough, not anymore.

He needs to hear me to say it.

I know it has to be me that says it first.

I owe him that.

That's why he acted the way he did today.

He's protecting himself,

From me.

On Friday he opened himself up,

He gave me the chance to tell him,

But I didn't.

And I know I hurt him all over again.
