Bella knew she would never be good enough for the Cullen boy who held such perfection in his stance, style, and overall demeanor. She realized her insignificance in the situation. She had acknowledged it many times before that she deemed less a beauty and less a catch than other girls in her class. With Edward though, she remained unable to erase him from her mind and move on with her life. She felt his stares, and held great intrigue for this boy that seemed different from the rest. He enticed her, and she envied him. It was a situation that Bella had never experienced, and feelings she has never felt. Bella desired to know more of him, yet she feels insignifant to his flawless being.

He was the envy of all the freshman girls. Tan, muscular, and a personality that made every girl like him and every guy curious to how he did it. I had never seen him as more than a friend. To me the charm every girl saw was just goofiness and the hot body was simply the fact that he was in good shape. Then one day he asked me, "Molly, what are you going tonight?" It wasn't until he repeated the question with a litte something else in his voice that I realized his intentions. Hesitant at first I accepted his request to hang out as something more than just friends. Things evolved but eventually faded, and I was like feeling as Bella had felt. Insignificant and wanting something unattainable. A relatable character, conveyed in so many different story settings, Bella embodies the feelings of want, heartbreak, and love all in one.
