Bella couldn't believe it, Edward was here. In Albuquerque. Albuquerque, for Christ's sake. The one place he should never be, but here he was, staring at her stomach. You're, you're, Edward stammered, pointing towards her stomach.
Pregnant?
I know Bella said, feeling slightly uncomfortable telling him.
So is that why you left? Edward asked in a strained voice.
Bella felt tears come to her eyes at the look of pain on Edward's face. Yes Bella sighed, sinking into a chair.
And you couldn't tell me? Edward demanded.
What was there to tell? Bella retorted.
Everything, Edward snapped. I didn't want to hurt you Bella told Edward, shaking her head slightly.
I can take the rain on the roof
Of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then
And just let 'em out
I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while
Even though goin' on
With you gone
Still upsets me
There are days
Every now and again
I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could've been
And not seeing that loving you
Was what I was trying to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you
Everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it
It's hard to force that smile
When I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder getting up, getting dressed, living with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade
Give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
What hurts the most
Was being so close
