Chapter Four - New Jackie
"Jackie, Hi." I heard Stefan.
"Hello Stefan." I smile and hugged him. I took his arm.
"Would you like to come for a walk with me?"
"Of course, I will talk with you later Nik." we started walking through the street of my New home.
"So, I heard that you don't want to be changed yet. Why? The way you talked about..."
"About Edward? How I wanted him to turn me in that moment?"
"Yes." I sigh
"Edward gave me the kind of love and care that you just don't get with family. Nik and Elijah those were kind of a familiar I'm used to. Edward was different and I don't mean a different kind of vampire. I know I can protect myself but it felt good to have him. I trusted him."
"And he broke that trust." I nodded
"Trust and love together is a lot when you minus a sense. When it came to him as my Dad would put it, he could walk on water. But he left me helpless and alone in the middle of the woods with concussion because he thought he was doing the right thing, that because his brother couldn't fully control his thirst was his fault. I knew the risks of being around Jasper, of being around a vampire that only just managed to be in the same room with me and my sister. I make my own choices, but he couldn't except that.
I hate being treated like a china doll I got myself into this so I can get myself out, I'm no one's burden I fought not to be, to make my own way to let what I did not affect me and those around me. I didn't want to be...broken." by now we had sat down on a bend and i leaned back.
"Did...Did he brake you."
"More than you could ever know." I gave out a bitter laugh "It never bothered me that he was a vampire but breaking my trust, abandoning me. I can't. You know what the funny thing is."
"What."
"I was prepared to accept his decision, he said he didn't want me and once my mind was clear I was ready to accept that . Then when I heard he was going to the Volturi to end his life because he would rather be dead then be in a world I didn't exist. I couldn't let that happen, but I don't know what happened I lost it and all the anger and resentment that had built up just went loose. I didn't matter what had happened, what mattered was he left me, he broke me, he abandoned me. So what if I saved him so what if he would rather be dead with me. He still left, what was to stop it happening again, I just wanted something, anything that would tell me it wouldn't."
"And he didn't give you that?"
"No. Just silence. I didn't exactly say these words but the basis of it was prove to me you won't leave me or I will do what you couldn't. Cut off all ties." I wiped away the tears that began to fall.
