Days passed. We watched the sun rise and the sun set. It was strange to see the world carry on even in the darkest hours. No matter how you felt. It reminded me of when Edward left a while back. I couldn’t believe life could carry on through such an experience. Like the orb we lived on and the galaxies around it ignored your broken heart. We watched Edward lay still and silent on the bed at the cottage where he landed the night we got back. He simply laid down and closed his eyes. He wasn’t sleeping. He wasn’t really awake. He wasn’t even following in line with the natural habit of breathing that all of us have held onto. He was still, and lifeless. I began to wonder if I had lost Edward after all. Jake had Ness with him but still came by every once in a while to check in on Edward. Even he was extremely worried about him. He hadn’t moved a muscle for nearly four days. Every once and a while I laid next to him. I ran my fingers through his bronze hair. Studied his lifeless face for hours. All of us were growing hungry, we needed to hunt but we couldn’t leave Edward behind. His skin was growing more pale by each day. The dark circles under his eyes become more distinct.
It wasn’t until the fifth day the sun had a rare appearance and shot through the bedroom window. I was watching the diamonds flare up on his face and reflect onto the bedroom walls. Finally his eyes slowly opened. Revealing the nearly black glassy centers of his eyes. I didn’t move. I didn’t speak, afraid that anything I did would cause his beautiful eyes to close again. I just waited in silence.
“Bella?” His voice came out in a scratchy whisper. I flashed to the side of the bed. I kneeled down to be face to face with him. Even with broken and weary eyes he still managed my favorite smile. “I’m sorry love. I just, needed some time.” I shook my head.
“Edward please, it’s fine. I understand.”
“Your beautiful.” He stated. He motioned his hand toward him. “Come here.”
I crawled unto the bed next to him burying my face into his chest. His arms wrapped around me. He pulled me over onto my back and hovered over me pressing his lips into mine. He kissed me so deeply I forgot about existence outside of us. It couldn’t get better.
We went hunting with the rest later that day. We still followed Edwards lead and stayed very quiet. As long as he was, we would be as well. We knew he would open up again eventually.
The next day early in the morning Edward and I hiked up to our clearing. I was almost afraid of going to such a special place of ours with such heavy hearts. We laid down and stared at the sky for a long time.
“Edward, I’m so sorry about all that happened.”
“Bella, you don’t need to be sorry. It wasn’t your fault. If anything I should be the sorry one. You never deserved to have to go through that.”
“I’m just sorry it ended the way it did. I mean I couldn’t be any happier to have you and Nessie back, but I never wanted….it to end like that.”
“Don’t worry about that for now Bella. It isn’t over.” Confused I sat up and looked at him. He sat up to.
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“I mean I won’t ever have to suffer so many things under such a pathetic waste. I won’t suffer, you won’t suffer and neither will the rest of our family. Not ever again.”
I shook my head in confusion. “I…I don’t understand.”
“I’m declaring war this time. Were getting everyone back here. Were training, were getting the dogs back. Were going to build an army, and were going after them. I will only see their faces stand before us one more time. We are going to destroy the Volturi.”
I ran this through my head. I smiled. I wanted that to. We would destroy them. We would never have to worry again. I reached up and ran my fingers across his jaw. He closed his eyes and smiled. He opened them again waiting for my response.
“Let’s do it.”
