I'm back and badass!

Chapter 26.

Isabella's POV

It's been 5 years.  In those 5 years I have finished high school, finished college, went travelling for a year, and I am now running my families business. And I've done all of this with Kenzie by my side. Yes, I did make other friend and so did she. But we either moved away, stopped talking or just drifted away.

Well, besides our other best friend. She's called Elena. If you've ever watched vampire diaries, then she basically looks just like either Elena from that. (Nina dobrev) Ahah. Creepy I know. The only difference is that her hair colour is slightly lighter, and she's got blue eyes.

Yes. I know what your thinking right now. I think everyone is.

Do you still like Kenzie?

Well, the answer to that is yes.

My whole life, I've dreamed of a great love. Of a love that will somehow complete me. Of a love that will reunite me with the other half of my soul. Of a love that will consume me until I'm helpless to do anything but give myself to it. I didn't know if I would ever find such a love, or for it to find me. At times, I would wonder if that kind of love truly exists. If it's not some fairy tale that were told as young children to make us think the world is a wonderful place that's full of love and hope and fulfilled dreams. Yes, I have loved. But, I had never been in love. I'd never known anyone that made my heart skip a beat each time they utter my name. or cause me to lose my breath just by the sight of them waling into a room. Or make my knees grow weak by just one touch, whether it was sensual or not. Or cause the world to disappear when our eyes meet across a crowded room. Or be able to communicate with just a glance or a touch. Or felt that the safest place on earth was in the arms of the one I love.

I didn't know if that love really existed. Until I met Mackenzie. Now, I can't live my life without her. The ways she smiles, laughs, talks, breathes, thinks, or even eats, all take my breath away. But still, I haven't told her how I feel. I mean, how can I? If I did, she'd most certainly not feel the same way that I do for her about me.

If that humiliation and heart break wouldn't be bad enough, then losing her as ATLEAST a friend would break my heart even more and kill me. So no, I have not told her, but yes, I am madly in love with her and I have been since I met her approximately 5 1/2 years ago.

Mackenzie's POV

Hi again. So, it's been what? 5 years? Yeah. It has. I don't really know why I'm talking to you right now. Well, anyway, I shall give you an update of my life. Wow, that sounded so posh and sophisticated. I guess Elena's posh attitude has rub of on me. Aha.

As I was saying, I know all of Bells past now. All the way down to when she got bullied, self harmed, moved away, returned, found out she has another triplet sister, and then became friends with me. You'd think that I'd live her less or at least see her in a different way. But it only made my love for her stronger and made me see her as a strong, beautiful and loving woman who I'm glad I fell in love with even if she didn't feel the same.

I guess you want to know if I still like Bella? Well I do. In fact, I love her. But I think you already know that because I've said it about 5 times in the last 2 minuets to so. But no, I haven't told her.

I was going to tell her about half a year ago. We were at my house because she was sleeping over for the night, and I had planned to tell her that night that I was madly in love with her. After we had food and watched titanic since it's her favourite romantic film/movie, I got ready to tell her but was interrupted when she said that she was dating this other girl called Lila. I kind of distanced myself from her for a few months but it hurt me just as much not seeing her then seeing her with someone else. Gradually I got used to it but there was always that dull pain whenever she talked about her or was with her.

I know I properly sound pathetic right now, since I've been in love with her for 5 years and I still haven't told her or at least got over it. But there's something about her that makes my mind and heart not want to let go of. Even though it will save me from a lot of suffering. I guess I just don't want to let go of the possibility of her loving me back and us being together. But I know thats impossible.
