Quote

But now you're unhappy, he pointed out. And? I challenged. That doesn't seem fair. He shrugged, but his eyes were still intense. I laughed without humour. Hasn't anyone told you? Life isn't fair. I believe I have heard that somewhere before, he agreed dryly.

I could see how easy it would be to fall into loving Bella. It would be exactly like falling: effortless. Not letting myself love her was the opposite of falling—it was pulling myself up a cliff-face, hand over hand, the task as grueling as if I had no more than mortal strength.

I was not allowed to think of him. That was something I tried to be very strict about. Of course I slipped I was only human. But I was getting better, and so the pain was something I could avoid for days at a time now. The trade-off was the never-ending numbness. Between pain and nothing, I'd chosen nothing.

But on a clear, sunny day? How would she know to flee when she couldn't see any place for danger to hide?
Stephenie Meyer

I wondered how long it could last. Maybe someday, years from now.If the pain would decrease to the point where I could bear it.I would be able to look back on those few short months that would always be the best of my life.

What's so funny? Bella mumbled. I got food in her hair, I told her, chortling again. I'm not going to forget this, dog, Rosalie hissed. S'not so hard to erase a blond's memory, I countered. Just blow in her ear. Get some new jokes, Rosalie snapped.

It was like someone had died- like I had died. Because it had been more than just losing the truest of true loves, as if that were not enough to kill anyone. It was also losing a whole future, a whole family- the whole life that I'd chosen...
