Imagine that you were in love with Edward.
***
You fell in love with Edward Cullen back when you first saw him and were sure that the guy didn't notice your infatuation. He seemed to notice nothing and no one at all, except his family. This made it a little easier for you, because seeing how the object of your love is in love with another is unbearable.
He was like something out of a fairy tale - an unapproachable, charming guy who won your heart just by saying a few words to you. After that, you unconsciously began to look for him everywhere with your eyes and soon it turned into affection and love.
And you also knew for sure that Alice was aware that you were madly (read: hopelessly) in love with her brother. Yes, the whole school saw hearts in your eyes when Edward passed by or flashed somewhere in the distance.
It was very painful that he didn't notice you, but you tried not to show it, and plunged headlong into your studies. After all, the last year in high school, and then you all will scatter who where and flunking exams because of non-reciprocal love seemed the height of idiocy.
***
Your heart broke when Bella Swan, the daughter of the town sheriff, showed up at school in the middle of the school year. She immediately began to show interest in the Cullens. And Edward, it seems, began to thaw out: he spent too much time next to the new girl, and they also sat at the same desk in biology class.
You were jealous and it really hurt, because jealousy now took up a lot of space in your head, and the rest was occupied by Edward Cullen himself.
You managed to pass the exams despite this, so you were very proud of yourself.
***
You didn't expect Edward to invite you, so when Eric Yorkie invited you, you willingly went to the ball with him. Still, it's better than going alone.
Bella's timid kiss finally broke you. She reached out to Edward and, when he bent down a little, kissed him on the lips in embarrassment, immediately pulling away, but Cullen immediately kissed her.
This fairy tale will not have a happy ending.
