Falling was a horrible experience. Everything slowed down and gave you time to look back at your life. Which in my case was painful.
My biological parents gave me away. I had to run away from my adopted parents to protect them. I met the Cullen's and fell in love with the thought of have a family I could keep forever. I met the volturi. I fell in love with a vampire, who caught me when I jumped through a window. I almost bled to death. I broke my arm. Then had it healed. I sent love letters and received love letters. And now I was falling from a six story church.
All because I met Alec, the guy who would never let me fall. Who isn't going to let me fall now. I see him. He threw himself off of the building. His body came to mine and flipped us over. His back towards the ground and mine towards the sky. Suddenly, it dawned on me what he was doing. He was breaking my fall. I attempted to shove him off, but it was too late.
Even with his body between me and the ground, it still hurt when we made impact. Dust from the pavement had flew up in the air. I couldn't see anything or anyone. I felt that Alec wasn't moving. I slowly peeled myself off of him as the dust settled. When I got my air back I sat up quickly. I turn toward the motionless Alec. He was completely shattered. It looked like if I even just lightly touch him, he would crumble to the ground.
His eyes were closed. I gently placed my hand on his face. "Alec?" I whispered. I could feel the tears gathering in my water line and I could hear the lump in my throat. "Alec, wake up. Come on, you gotta wake up." I didn't know what to do. I started to cry. "Come on, Alec. Alec, you promised. You-you promised you would never leave me." I cried. "COME ON. PLEASE. JUST-just..." I cried out, placing my face on his chest. I felt like my entire world had just collapsed, like I had no purpose. I was lost again. I took a few deep breaths where I was, then pulled myself together. I moved to sit on my legs. I sniffed and shook my back. "Okay, okay, okay." I quickly spewed out. Looked at him with all the determination I could. "You're not leaving me. You promised." I said with clenched teeth. I raised my hands over his body.
I closed my eyes and thought of every living thing. I thought of the grass back in Spokane. I thought of the beautiful doe. I thought of Bella's dad. And renesmee. I thought of the flowers in the meadow and the bright sun that casts its light upon everything. I thought of how much I laughed when Alec was tell a story. How beautiful his ice blue eyes were. And how warm I was when I laid with him. How sad he was when he left. The tears that streamed down his face. How real it all was.
I opened my eyes to see a bright golden light. This light illuminated from my hand. I could feel the entire world shifting. Like, there was an entire world that no one knew about. The sun was rising and the moon was setting. It reminded me of a saying that had been everywhere. 'Live by the sun and love by the moon.'
I loved Alec so much. I wasn't just about to let him slip from my fingers. Slowly, the cracks faded and he was no longer shattered. Alec's skin was changing, he became more of a pink color. And I could practically feel his warmth from where my hands hovered his body. I sharp gasp escape his body and I jump back in surprise. Quickly, I moved closer to him. I put my hands on his face. "Alec?" I asked. His chest was moving up and down and air was leaving his nose. Suddenly his eyes snapped open and his ice blue eyes where staring at me, without a filter over them. I quickly removed my hands from his face and watched his sit up. I didn't move. I was in complete shock. He just stared at me, but then he smiled. "ALEC!" I jumped on him, wrapping my arms around his neck. " I thought you were dead. I thought you were dead. You were gone. You left me. Where did you go? Why didn't you come back?" I sobbed.
"I love you." That was all Alec had said to me. I couldn't reply, I was sobbing to much to normally breath. So, Alec sat there and let me cry till I fell asleep in his arms. He was holding me in his living arms. With his living body and living heart.
