I pulled my truck into the driveway of Charlie's house. Shut the roaring engine off, got out of the car.

I didn't expect to see Edward standing there.

He did miss school.

When I saw him my face lit up into a smile.

I started walking towards him.

"Hey."I murmured. 

"Come take a walk with me." He said not as a question, but as a statement.  

I followed him into the deep forest, not ever looking back.

He turned to face me and said "We have  to leave Forks."

"Why?"

"Carlisle is supposed to be ten years older than he looks," he stopped "people are starting to notice."

I was already thinking of things I should say to Charlie.

"Okay uh. I've  gotta think of something to say to Charlie." I started to think when Edward said we what did he mean? My face dropped, I was so confused.

"When you say we." I was waiting for his response.

  "I mean my family and myself." 

I knew this was all about Jasper, and the paper cut at my Birthday party.

I sucked in a breath.

"Edward what happened with Jasper it's nothing." I shook my head and licked my dry rough lips.

"You're right. It was nothing. Nothing but what I always expected. And nothing compared to what could've happened.." His eyebrows squinted together.

My eyes widened.

He let out a dark humorus laugh. "You just don't belong in my world Bella."

My heart stopped.

"I belong with you." I  swallowed the lump beginning in my throat.

"No you don't."

I was angry now. "I'm coming." I shouted at him.

"Bella. I dont want you. To come." His cold voice made me feel so much sadness.

The lump in my throat started to grow. My chest began to ache.  I felt like I was losing air in my lungs, I was gasping. 

"You don't, want me?"  I asked tears trying to escape my eyes.

"No."  He shook his head.

"That changes things. A lot." I was sure I was losing air. I gasped.

"But if its not too much to ask. Can you just promise me something?" 

I took a deep breath . Then swallowed very hard.

"Don't do anything reckless. For Charlie's sake."

I started to hypervenilate.

"And I'll promise you something in return. This is the last time you'll ever see me, I wont come back. And you can go on with your life without any interference from me" I started getting angry.

"It'll be like i never existed I promise." 

I tried to speak but the words wouldn't come out. I was just speaking with air.

"If this is about my soul take it. I don't  want it without you!" I shouted.

"Its not about your soul. Your just not good for me." I could hear my heart shatter

"Not good enough for you." I mumbled. My eyes started to sting.

"I'm just sorry I let this go on for so long." 

"Please," my breathing started to go faster I licked my dry lips once again," don't."

"Good bye. " I shook my head trying to think.

Edward walked towards me.

I closed my eyes, he leaned towards me.

His cool lips pressed against my forehead.

I couldn't process Edward not being here with me. All I saw was nothing.

He let go, my eyes still closed.

Wind blew against my face.

I opened my eyes.

Edward was gone.

"Edward, Edward," I staretd shouting and running deeper into the forest trying to see if i could catch up to him or see him, " Edward Edward Edward"

The sun then started to set.

I couldn't find him.

It then turned night.

I looked around the forest, letting tears escape my eyes.

I sniffled.

My legs felt numb.

I gave up, and fell to the gorund.

Th cold hard ground.

Now all the tears escaped my eyes.

I curled up into a ball.

Trying to feel warm but it wasnt wokring in the cold forest on the wet ground.

I heard a weird  howl.

I felt the ground under me start to move.

I blinked a few times seeing a blur , my eyes then  fluttered open.

I saw the trees above me were moving  too.

I heard a husky voice but couldnt quite figure out what he was saying.

I then heard Charlies voice.

He put me to bed covering me up. 

I couldn't sleep, I just lied there on the bed my eyes open.

Nothing going on inside of my head.

The next day is when it happened, its when everything happened.

I woke up to my depression. The rest of my life was goning to  be Edwardless.
