Twilight FanFic AgainA Story by BerryAnother Twilight storyREADERS: Imagine Bella and Edward sitting on a couch in a cozy room. Bella is sitting on his lap facing him. There’s nobody in the room except them. It’s very, very dark and quiet except a nearby clock ticking.
******************* Edward took my hand and gently squeezed. “Isabella Marie Swan. I love you so much.” He whispered in my ear. His sweet breath tickled on my skin.
I leaned close to his ear, my cheek brushing against his. My skin tingled. “How much?” I challenged.
He turned his head ever so slowly so his lips brushed against mine. I closed my eyes with pleasure.
Then he wrapped his arms around my lower back and buried his face in my shirt. For a moment, we sat like that. The clock nearby ticked with every passing second.
Suddenly Edward lifted his head and kissed my neck. I leaned forward to kiss him back but he held me with resistance.
I stared at him. “Bella, “ He said. His voice sounded like he was in pain. “I love you. I want you to always remember that.”
Confused and a bit panicked, I wrapped my arms around his neck and this time buried my face into his shirt. It smelled so wonderful.
“Edward,” I said. “There’s something you’re not telling me.”
Silence.
I lifted my head. “Please?” I begged.
Edward stared at me for a second. Then his eyes dropped to where his fingers were nervously playing with the hem of my shirt.
I put my hand over his. “Edward, please.”
He hesitated for a second.
“I’m afraid of you leaving me.” He whispered it ever so softly that I almost didn’t hear. Almost didn’t.
I gasped, flinched and then winced, as if hit by a large stone. Tears welled in my eyes involuntarily.
Edward looked at me his face full of agony as if even saying the words were too painful for him.
“Edward,” I struggled to say, though my breathing was quickening and it was hard to breathe.
I shook my head “No, no, no!” And now the tears poured uncontrollably, like rain from the clouds.
Edward put both his hands on either side of my head. I sniffed and waited for him to say something. He didn’t.
My sadness quickly turned to anger. “Why would you even say that?” I said.
Silence again.
“Edward Anthony Cullen, “ I spat. “Don’t make me force it out of you.”
Once again, his eyes dropped to the hem of my shirt.
“Alice.”
This time I gasped, flinched, winced and clapped my hand to my mouth.
“You m-mean…she saw?”
“Yes.”
“No, ” I shook my head. It can’t be true. No. Never.
“No, “ I repeated. “It can’t be true. I’ll never let it happen. I would rather die.”
Edward looked at me. I almost cried when I saw pain in his eyes.
Now I put my hands on each side of his head. I closed my eyes thoughtfully. When I opened them again, Edward was still staring at me.
“Edward,” I said. “You are the reason I live. You are the reason I breathe, the reason I sleep. The reason I get up in the morning. You are the reason my heart beats. Without you, I am nothing. Do you understand? Nothing. I was put in the World for one purpose. You”
Edward winced. “Bella, don’t say that. How can you love me so much? How can anyone love me so much?”
I couldn’t take it anymore. I put my face on his so my forehead was touching his. I closed my eyes. My hands shook, but I didn’t remove them from Edward’ head.
I couldn’t see the clock in the room, as it was so dark but I knew Alice would be coming to pick us up soon.
And then I remembered a movie I seen 5 years ago. Without hesitating, I spoke.
“May my breath find shelter in your heart, “ I said. “May my life be destroyed in your love.”
Edward gasped and looked up.
I slowly put his hand on my heart. “I love you more than you know Edward. Please believe and never forget.”
A car honked outside. Alice was here. **************
