When You're Gone

As always, thanks to my readers! Notice: I don't own Twilight or New Moon or Edward sigh.

Flames will be used to roast marshmallows!

Bella looked around her bedroom. Everything was different since Edward left. Bella hadn't felt so human in so long, since she first came to Forks, not knowing the mysterious Cullen family. It was one of Bella's first conscious moments since being left in the woods, as she watched Edward walk away, stunned and holding back tears.

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie
is made up on your side.

Bella glanced at Edward's side of the bed, so neat, not rumpled like it always was when he stayed with her. The pain was strong, yet dull, like she was used to it already. Bella had never felt more alone in her life.

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you're gone
the pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
the face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
the words I need to hear to always get me through the day
and make it OK
I miss you

Bella stayed still, unfeeling to the cold breeze blowing through the open window. She made no move to close it. She sat there, shivering as she remembered.

I've never felt this way before
everything that I do
reminds me of you

And the clothes you left

Lie on the floor
and they smell just like you
I love the things that you do

Bella couldn't take it, she felt so alone. She didn't think things could ever go back to normal, not without him. It stung just to say the name of the man that she still loved, not that he felt the same way anymore.

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you're gone
the pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
the face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
the words I need to hear to always get me through the day
and make it OK
I miss you

Bella sighed deeply. She hated vampires now. They were ever changing creatures, creatures that could love and hate at the same time. Bella smacked herself internally- she couldn't hate him, no matter how hard she tried.

We were made for each other

Out here forever
I know we were
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me
Yeah

Bella laid back down on her bed, the tears that showed only the shallowest of her pain running freely down her face. He wasn't here to wipe them away, like he always did. Bella hated that past tense.

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you.

Bella knew that she wouldn't be the same for a long, long time.
