The Brandon Mate-Edward Cullen

Sixteen

Clara sat to herself as the meeting was about them leaving. Edward looked at Clara worriedly causing him to walk to her. "Is Clara okay?"

"She's blaming herself for what happened. Clara thinks that if she had a vision then none of this would happened."

Edward kissed Clara's head causing her to look at him. "It's not your fault."

Clara looked at him as she knew better. Edward watched her walk away causing his dead heart to break. He looked back at his family before running after her. "Clara!" He called out as she made it to the car. "Clara, you can't control your gift, baby. I know this and so does everyone else. No one is blaming you. So, please stop punishing yourself."

Clara looked at him and sighed. "I hate that we have to leave. If only I saw this happening before then we won't be leaving."

Edward held her close making her cry. "Don't think of it as a goodbye. It's a see you later." He tells her. "Alexis won't be able to stay away from Bella." Clara nodded. "Come on. Let's go in and tell them goodbye. I have a place where you need to be right now."

"Our home."

It wasn't a joke. Edward took Clara to their house. The house where they first made love. She remembers every memory that her and Edward built here. Them sneaking away for a few days, where they confess their love for one another. "I always loved coming here." She says as she spins around. "Thank you for bringing me here."

"I thought you would like it better if it was just us."

Clara looked at him smiling. "Is this about what I said at home?"

"Yes." He says. "I want you to know that what happened shouldn't be blamed on you. No one is at fault, but Alexis as she made the situation worse."

Clara nodded as she walked over to him. "Let's try for a baby. See if the vision is true."

Edward kissed her as this could be a distraction from the departure and the party. "I love you, Clara."

"I love you, Edward."
