Songfic. "Far Away," by Nickelback.
Takes place on the plane leaving Rome near the end of New Moon.
Page 494, to be exact.
Spoiler Alert! Read New Moon first.
Careful- switching POV- may be hard to understand, so read slow.
Enjoy.
Bella~ I snuggle against Edward's cold body. He kisses my forehead gently, wrapping his muscular arms around my stomach.
Edward~ I look down at Bella, struggling to keep her tired eyes open. I softly tell her that she is free to sleep. She refuses stubbornly. I sigh and put my lips to her head.
This time
This place
Misused
Mistakes
Too Long
Too Late
Who was I to make you wait?
Bella~ I wonder what is going through Edward's mind right now. I wonder if he will ever change me, and make me one of him. I scoot closer and savor this moment with my vampire- at least we are alive, and together. I want this to last forever. If only Edward would change me…
Just one chance
Just one Breath
Just in case there's just one left
Edward~ I stroke her hair, contemplating. I love her, even more than I love myself. I think about how she must have felt when I left. I kiss her face gently. We are together now. That's all that matters.
Cause you know
You know
You know
I love you
I loved you all along
And I missed you
Been far away for far too long
Bella~ I want him to change me, to be one of his kind. A vampire. Immortal. I want to be together- forever.
I keep dreaming
You'll be with me
And you'll never go
Stop breathing
If I don't see you
Anymore
Edward~ It was hard, at first. Being this close to her. But it has gotten easier. I still cannot believe I can even find the strength… I guess it is our love that makes me resist. I take Bella's hand in mine.
On my knees
I'll ask
One last chance- for one last dance
Cause with you
I withstand
All of it to hold your hand
I give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
Cause you know
You know
You know
I love you
I loved you all along
I miss you
Been far away for far too long
Bella~ I won't forget. I know what I want. And I won't back down until I get it. I cannot stand the thought of dying without him. I love him too much.
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
And you never know
Stop breathing
If I don't see you anymore
So far away
So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know
You know
You know
I want it
I wanted you to stay
Cause I need it
I need to hear you say
I love you
I loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
Edward~ I silently vow never to leave Bella again. I have already caused too much heartbreak, not just for Bella, but for both of our families as well.
So keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you
Anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me
Never let me go
Keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Bella~ Never leave me again, Edward. I nearly died without you. If not for Jacob, I don't know what you would have come home to. Stay with me, Edward. Don't ever go away again.
Hold on to me
And never let me go
Hold on to me and never let me go
Hold on to me and never let me go
So what do you think?
PLEASE review- I didn't take too much time editing, so I may have a few mistakes in there somewhere. Also, the lyrics may not be perfectly accurate.
I am also searching around for the perfect song to do a songfic for Eclipse.
So keep your eyes open and make sure to read the third one when I post it.
Thanks!
