Xander's POV

It was just so hard for me every day to just suppress my feelings towards her, to call her Isabella and not Bella like I always used to call her. Sometimes I just feel like I am going to lose it one of these days and just stop all this stupid charade.

Come on Isabella, put yourself together, this might be a drunken mistake. I am sure he didn't mean any of what he was saying,'' I said to myself, but the voices in my head just laughed at me.''
