I'm sorry I took so long…Needed to collect some ideas. Hope you enjoy it.

Chapter 15:Lasting…

Bpov.

Alexandria looked absolutely terrified; her lips with were chalk and her skin even lighter. I have never seen anyone so scared, I almost felt sorry for her. I did feel sorry for her.

"Jacob…"I croaked from my dry throat, "Jacob don't hurt her."

He flung his head to me, "What? Bella this woman…this thing tried to kill you just now. Why would you not want her to disappear?"

"Because she doesn't like death." said Edward, in the tone of a teacher lecturing a disobedient student, "Take her somewhere else and do it."

Jacob scowled at him, then looked back at me. I shook my head, "Please don't."

His eyes softened with worry and regret. "Sorry Bells."

He turned back to the limp body hanging at the wrist in his hand. She had given up, knowing she could never win this fight. Jacob loosened his grip to lift her up straight, so he could get a clear shot, I suppose. The second his hand relaxed enough for hers to slip through she dashed away towards the trees, but from within the forest emerged three or four waiting men-Sam, Quil, Embry, and Seth-blocking her path. A piercing scream filled my ears as the men closed in on her. She whirled around, looking for a space to slip through and escape, but the men were too big and as they reached for her, something odd happened. A heavy branch fell from a tree, hit Seth in the head and knocked him out. A voice shouted from the tree,

"Run Alex! Go!"

Alexandria glanced up at the tree for a fraction of a second then took off running, tears streaming down her face. Sam swiftly climbed up the tree and dragged down Nicholas by his shirt collar, steadily he walked over to Jacob and dumped the boy in front of him. Nicholas slowly raised his head to face his killer and smiled.

"If I'm not going to get what I want, might as well die trying." He whispered then looked at me, a look of longing filled his eyes, "Bye Bella, love you. Oh and after I'm dead, can you look in my back pocket?"

"What?" I finally spoke, "Why?"

Nicholas said nothing, he just smiled and winked at me and returned to facing Jacob.

"Come on, bring it. But just make it quick, I'd rather not suffer more than I already have." He chuckled.

Slowly and deliberately Jacob slid his hand into his back pocket and pulled out a short knife, the handle was cut into the shape of a wolf baying, embossed in the blade was a string of crescent moons that twisted and curled down the middle. The end of the blade there was a tiny sort of curve that could be described as a hook. Jacob slowly lift the blade to Nicholas's chest and with the tip of the curve, he lightly touched over the where the heart would be. Nicholas sighed as though relieved, but from his mouth floated a small blue sphere-like object. It glowed brightly for a minute, then dispersed into a million little twinkles and disappeared. The moment the small blue orb had gone, Nicholas's body started to crumble, as though it was made from sand and rocks, until nothing was left but a pile of fine sand. Jacob reached into his pocket again, took out a small vial, and scooped up some of the sand, then turned to me and lightly tossed it my way. Edward caught it effortlessly and slid it into my slightly opened palm as I uncovered my face. I gripped the vial, staring at its size, this was all I had left of a good friend I used to make Edward jealous. Then, suddenly remembering Nicholas's last words, I whispered,

"What's in his pocket?"

Edward flashed toward the pair of jeans that were started to blow away in the wind as is the pile of sand and came back with a folded piece of paper with a short paragraph written in a messy scrawl.

In all the books of romance, non have suffered as I. The characters are always either breaking it off or unfaithful. But unlike me the victims of these heartbreaks can all use the phrase "it was good while it lasted". I am not entitled to say that because nothing can last if it didn't even begin. I can't say that about my love for her either because it went unanswered, unreturned, and ignored. So it was not good…but its still lasting.

Okay so there is my ending. Hope you like it. I know its short but that wraps up my first story. Please tell me what you think of it.
