Edward the Wolf (twilight fanfiction)

Chapter 33

Together

When I finished my 'story' I looked at Bella. She had tears in her eyes, but surprisingly she didn't say anything just hugged me tightly. I slowly wrapped my arms around her in suprise and I felt the pain slowly ease up.

After she let me go she looked at my right wrist where the horrible scars were. She lifted it and kissed each one of them. It felt like there weren't any scars left as she did this. "You know it's not true right?" She asked.

"What?" I asked while not looking at her. Though I knew exactly what she was asking.

"That you are not worthy to love and that you are a selfish monster. You don't believe that right?" She asked, her eyes filled with tears. That wasn't right. She shouldn't be crying and expecially not over me.

I looked away from her. My mouth in a thin line.

She gasped. "Edward! Please don't believe them! They are not true!" Her voice was tight, she was on the verge of crying. I didn't want her to cry so I hugged her to myself, but she got out of my arms quickly. I felt my stomach tighten in anxiety. Did I do something wrong?

There was silence for a while, both of us thinking. Then I broke it. I spoke quietly. "How can't I? I am a monster because I hurt my own mother. I am selfish because I stayed around you even when it was dangerous for you. I am not worthy to love because I am a selfish monster, nobody can truly love me." I whispered looking at the ceiling.

"But I love you!" She almost yelled. My eyes widened and I watched as what she said sunk in for her. Then before an awkward silence settled in she started to speak quickly. "You are not a monster to me, you are a hero who saves me and makes everything good. You are not selfish because you always help people and even if you have stayed away from me, I wouldn't have stayed away from you. What happened with your mother was an accident and I am sure she thought that too and she didn't blame you. And I truly love you. I think the moment you started to talk to me properly I was gone for good. I started to fell for you and I crashed hard. And there is no going back for me, so you just have to accept that you are very worthy to love." In the end her voice quieted down to a whisper.

"You are just saying this because you feel pity for me and I don't want that." I shook my head.

"Edward I wanted to say the words every time we hugged or touched or when you just simply smiled at me." She smiled at me a little bit uncertainly. I searched her eyes if she in fact meant the words. The only thing I saw in them was was love.. for me. She really loved me. I didn't know how I felt in that momenent as her words truly sank in. Complete? Happy? Healed? Loved? I didn't know how these emotions truly felt until that moment.

"Of course, if you don't feel the same, it's okay. I just wanted you to know that you are totally worth to love for me. So if you don't feel the same we can stay friends, I think-" I cut her off before she could continue with her ridiculous rant.

I kissed her lips softly, but I pulled back shortly to look at her face. I felt the nervousness in the pit of my stomach. Before I could overthink and make up some excuse her gleeful smile cut off my thought process. She pulled me down for another kiss by the back of my neck. As our lips met again her hand slipped into my hair while my hands wandered onto her waist.

"So the wolf fell in love with the lamb." I said when we pulled back. She let out a little laugh and I felt a brilliant grin lit up my face.
