You know those fics where Edward doesn't come back and Bella forgets about him and five seconds later she's in bed with Jacob and none of it makes any damn sense? Yeah, this isn't one of them. This story picks up from the moment in New Moon when Jacob has driven Bella home after the cliff diving incident, right before he catches the scent of Alice. Only in this telling, Alice wasn't looking, so there's no sudden appearance at Bella's house, no Rosalie calling Edward and sending him on a suicidal mission to Volterra, and no reason for Bella to do anything but believe that Edward didn't love her anymore. This is simply a story of what might have happened if everyone stayed mostly in character and Edward's return was delayed. Yes, delayed. Because we all know that he was "this close" to coming back on his own anyhow. So what would have happened if Bella had tried to move on with her life?

For those of you who like Bella and Jacob this is what their life would be like. She has met Edward and it starts off when Alice and her are going to stop him from killing himself. But on her way to save him she does some thinking and when he says he lied about not loving her she doesnt want to be with him anymore. How will he react? Will she still be heartbroken after leaving Edward in Italy?
