Ch 17
Isabella's POV
My eyes widened. My mouth was dropped open. My body was trembling. I gulped.
" Miss me love? " , asked Peter
I didn't answer.
" Oh come on, what happened to the talking and loving Isabella that I know? " , he asked
" You... you were here the whole time. " , I said and then I realized something.
I have been telling Peter everything about how I feel and stuff. At least I didn't tell him about my family, but still. I got up and started backing away as he came closer to me.
" What's wrong love? " , he asked
" How could you do that to me? " , I asked " I told you everything and you pretended to be someone else. "
" Isabella, I just wanted to hear from you. I knew that you wouldn't want to talk to me physically, so I pretended to be someone else. " , he said
" They knew this. Felix knew this. You just tricked me into making me like you. " , I said
" Well I think you do like me. You just don't want to admit it to me. " , he said
" I DON'T LIKE YOU! I HATE YOU! " , I shouted " I KNEW IT! YOU WERE JUST USING ME. "
" WHY CANT YOU JUST ADMIT IT ISABELLA! IM NOT GOING TO HURT YOU. I LOVE YOU AND I MEAN IT! I JUST WANTED TO HEAR YOU FOR ONCE. " , he yelled
I could fear myself tearing up again and this time they kept falling.
I felt betrayed.
Hurt. Lost. Broken.
" I care about you Isabella and I love you. " , he cried " I just want you happy. "
Never have I seen Peter cry before. Slowly the tears slid off this cheek. I knew that I hurt him and I felt bad, but I wasn't going to back down.
" You want me happy, then take me back home. " , I said
Peter looked up and he rubbed the back of his neck. He looked disappointed.
" Why can't you just see that I care for you and that I love you? " , he asked " Is that too much to ask? "
" You don't know my story Peter. I been hurt and betrayed many times. I been through so much. Nobody cares about me or loves me....they just use me because I believed in them. I can't Peter I can't fall again. " , I said
" So this is it? " , he asked " Everything that I have done for you and not one chance I can have to be with you. "
" Peter I... " , I whispered quietly
" No. I don't want to hear it. I heard enough. " , he waved me off before he started to walk away from me.
" Peter please... " , I cried
" You know what Isabella congratulations for once in my life. Someone played my games and you win. You win. This love feeling I have for you I can't get rid of. I just can't. " , he said " We are leaving tomorrow as you wish. "
Then he disappeared into the woods. I have never seen Peter broken before or cry. I forget sometimes that he is human as well. I pushed him and well I won.
I win.
Good job Isabella, you get to go home tomorrow.
