Romeo's Despair

 

I kissed her on the forehead and left the love of my existence behind me. Her skin burnt my lips, a reminder of what I had given up to protect her. An endless reminder. Excruciating.

I wouldn’t go back, because if I were to hurt her or even my world hurt her the tiniest amount again, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself. If I was able to resist human blood for decades, I should have been able to resist her presence. What was the difference? There was all the difference. I knew myself to well to be able to cope without her floral scent, her chocolate brown eyes, her easy blushes. It was too much. Why was I so weak? Why couldn’t I gain the power to enable me to stay away from her. I could only think of one reason. Love.

 

I slowed to a walk, there was no point in running. It didn’t give me the adrenaline rush it used to when I had something to live for. I had promised her peace, so what was my heartache to her having a happy, fulfilled life…being human. There was no comparison. Bella was of the most importance. Always.

I tried to drown out everything, the thoughts of nearby hikers, the animals around me. But the one thing I couldn’t ignore was the clumsy footsteps that came from far behind me. She was trying to follow me and it opened up painful memories. Her face when I told I didn't love her. The pure shock of it, that she actually believed I didn’t want her, after I had said I loved her so many times. Why would she question that? It was enough to crush my unbreakable body…not knowing.

I sat in the wet soil and slumped against a tree, telling myself if it was for Bella it was worth it, but it was agonizing. My merciless side that wanted to go home was overpowering. I didn’t know who was going to win. Good or Bad?

 

My phone buzzed in my pocket. I didn’t particularly want to answer it but I had to.

“Speak,†I growled through bared teeth. Now was not the time.

“Whoa, I guess you've done it then? Edward we are all going to miss her. You know that. She's still going to be my clumsy little sister, but you’ll be fine. We all will†I nearly crushed the phone in my hand. He didn’t understand the... intensity of my love for Bella. I shook my head vigorously, he just didn’t understand.

“No I won’t be fine Emmett. You have no idea of the agony... the strength it took to leave her vulnerable. If Bella were Rosalie could you do that? Leave her unprotected from God knows?â€

“Well no, but I still think you're blowing this well out of-" I switched the phone off and got to my feet.

 

And I continued my trek into the proceeding hell my life would turn out to be.
