Lost Without Each Other

“Edward Cullen, don’t you DARE try to dazzle me this time. Stop second guessing me. I will ALWAYS love you. Once you came back, there was NEVER a chance I’d choose Jacob over you. You should know that by now.” I yelled at him. Once again, Edward deluded himself into thinking he wasn’t good for me…that I would realize this, and choose Jacob.

“But, Bella, I don’t understand why you would choose me. At least with Jacob you could grow old, and have a family. Children, Bella, children are something he alone can give that I can’t.” he affected. I shook my head at him.

“No, Edward. I don’t understand why you can’t just accept that I love you, and only you.” I said, tears welling in my eyes. He could tell that they weren’t sad tears, but he hated them anyway.

He moved to comfort me, but I put up my hands. “No, Edward. I just want to be alone for about ten minutes. Just let me calm down.” I muttered, knowing that he could hear me perfectly. He looked broken for a second, before his face went smooth.

“Okay, Bella. I understand.” he said, and he left his room. I looked at the wall of cds, and decided to look through them, knowing it would get my mind off of the current topic.

I combed through the titles. One name caught my eye. ‘What the heck? What on God’s wonderful green Earth is Hanson doing here?’ I thought. The cd was called Underneath. I shrugged, and opened the case anyway.

I carefully walked to the expensive stereo, and pushed the power and open buttons, sliding the cd into place. I flipped the case over, and looked at the song titles. Two caught my eyes: Crazy Beautiful and Lost Without Each Other.

I pushed the skip button six times, and I got to Lost Without Each Other. An upbeat drum and guitar beat came out of the speakers.

I ran into your best friend today
Twelve nights since you ran away
I asked about you and she said can't say, can't say
I'm feeling lonely and it seems to stay

It's been a while since I've felt that way
Well, I can tell you there's no room to play this game
All I know is what I'm missing
What I'm missing is your kissing
Are you listening?
