was it my fault I was born?

2 days later /Bells pov:

"E-e-Edward..." I trembled so hard. I just-I can't physically live without Edward. Edward is like a dad to me. I don't want him to leave.

"Yes tesoro?" He turned to my side.

I bit my inner cheeks so I won't cry.

"St-s-stay safe..."

He smiled lightly and cupped my face between his palms.

"I will. And you too Bell. Stay safe okay?"

I nod.

"D-do you h-have everything?"

He nods.

"W-water?"

"Yes."

"First a-aid k-kit?"

"Got it."

"C-clothes?"

He chuckles and picks me up.
"I've got everything Bell, stop worrying. I'll be fine."

"P-promise?"

"Promise."

I hug him so tight as if my life depends on it.

After a while of hugging he puts me down crouching down to my height.

"Bell."

"H-hm?" I say.

He moves his hand from behind his back. He had... the bunny plushie. The same one he gave me that night..

"I.. since you liked that one so much I thought about getting you another plushie. But I just couldn't find anything as good, so I got an identical one.."

He says.

Tears will up in my eyes.

I hug him and cry on his shoulder before I even take it.

"Th-thank y-y-you s-so much.."

"Hey- hey. No crying or I'll take it away okay?"

I nod and wipe my tears with my sleeves.

"And.. just to inform you. It has a tracker in it okay? So keep it with you all the time."

He said. I smile and nod.

"Video call me on Silas's phone whenever you miss me okay?"

"O-okay..." I say.

He gets up and talks to Alex about some stuff.

"I'm leaving now.."

He hugged me one last time and kissed my cheek.

"Bye Bell."

He said as I held my tears bad.

Edward left.

Yes, only for a month. But it also means a month without Edward's warm hugs. A month without singing a lullaby for Edward in the night.

I hug my bunny plushie close and get into the house with Alex.

We walk inside. Silas and Ace were preparing dinner.

"Agh- butt face watch where you're going!" Silas said.

Ace has bumped into him holding a hot pot that almost burned Silas's arm.

"U-um Alex.." I say.

"Hm?" He looks down to me.

"C-can I g-go t-tell Elijah to come e-eat with us?"
