Emergency

2 weeks later…

Life is like hell. My permanent hell that I can’t escape. It was always like that until I met Bella. I cringed at the name. I love her so much. She was beautiful, intelligent, caring, kind, and many other things- (those were just some small things to describe her as)

Edward?

It was her. I couldn’t believe it. She was talking to me.

Yes?

I said inside my head.

I love you

She whispered.

I love you too my love. Always have. Always will.

And that was the truth.

Then why did you leave me?

She asked. I could picture the tears trickling down her beautiful cheeks.

Because I love you. I didn’t want to put you in danger. I never wanted to hurt you…but I did. And I am so sorry for that love. Leaving you was the worst decision I made. And now your gone.

I told her. It grew silent. I thought that she left. But then she whispered.

Somehow…I believe you.

She answered whole-heartedly.

I never deserved you Bella. Your so much more better than me.

I said.

No…that’s not true Edward. I’m the one that told you I hated you. I’m so sorry for that. I never hated you for anything. I thought that you left because you didn’t love me. But I respected you for your decision. I knew that you left for a reason besides you not loving me.

She answered. I couldn’t speak. I was so amazed at her words.

Bella…

I sighed. I closed my eyes. I took a deep breath. Even though I didn’t need it. And then I opened my eyes. I was flabbergasted at what I saw. I was in complete and utter shock.

This can’t be happening. She can’t really be …here? What I saw before me was…Bella. She was translucent but she was here. And that’s all that matters.

She was wearing a yellow sundress that cut off at her knees. She was wearing yellow sandals. And a black headband in her hair. Her hair was actually straight. It was gorgeous. Her hair went all the way to the middle of her back. Then I looked into her beautiful eyes. They were a chocolate brown. When I looked into her eyes they seemed to soften. As if she was comforted. I wanted to hold and never let go. But I couldn’t do that. She would probably go right through me. I chuckled internally. She looked at me quizzically.

“I can’t believe you’re here.” I said aloud. I realized that I was at the funeral.

Oh crap!

She just laughed and smiled at me whole-heartedly. I smiled that half crooked smile she loves so much. Bella came walking over to me. I was once again surprised. Bella always surprised me. She cam over and sat on my lap and rested her head on my chest. I sighed contently. She was here…In my arms. I suddenly realized that she was crying. (Not real tears but crying.)

What’s the matter love?

I whispered.

I’m finally here with you.

She whispered. Then I wiped the tears from her cheeks. She frowned.

Why are you frowning? What’s on your mind love?

I asked her. She took a while before she answered.

Promise you won’t get mad?

She whispered.

Of course.

I answered.

Well…I…Well I think that you should get over me Edward. I know that I was your only love…but.

She paused

But?

I asked.

But I’m not alive anymore so I can’t take that place. Someday, hopefully soon, you’ll find a vampire girlfriend that you fall in love with.

She whispered.

So now I am going to be the one who has to say goodbye.

Goodbye Edward.

She whispered.

Then she disappeared. I put my head in my hands. I had to do one thing. And one thing only. And that one thing was to find another mate. I sighed. She makes it sound easy.

And then I knew my new solution: Tanya.
