Hey everyone! This is my first fanfiction, and I wrote it after finishing up New Moon. In other words,
cut me some slack, please, and don't give me hints on Eclipse. I'd like to keep it that way, thank you.
Well, this being my first, please review and tell me what you think of it, things you like and things you would
like me to change. Any suggestions would be very appreciated.
Disclaimer- I do not own the series, Twilight.
"Bella," A soft and gentle voice whispered in my ear. It sounded so warm and inviting, considering
the contrast of his cold skin. I sat up groggily and flattened my tangly mess of hair. I hated
waking up and looking so gross with Edward's perfectly good looks still intact. He smiled at me gently.
"Today is graduation day." Suddenly I was more awake than I was before. I desparately threw back the
covers and grabbed fresh clothes. I rushed to the bathroom to take a quick shower. Before I left, I turned
to see Edward looking a little distressed through his smile. I didn't have to think of the reason why.
It wasn't that it was our last day at Forks High school, more like his worst nightmare was going to occur tonight.
I wasn't going to let this stop me from being excited, though, because I had been waiting for this, ever since
I had fallen in love with a vampire. I wasn't going to grow old and live in love with Edward as he eternally stayed
seventeen. I had made him promise me that as soon as we graduated he himself would turn me into a vampire.
Of course I couldn't have convinced him by myself. I had to go to his family to have a vote.
Carlise Cullen, the head of the family put in a yes, and so did Alice, Emmet, Esme, and Jasper. Edward obviously was
strongly against it, along with Rosalie. But, thanks to most of the family, I got the majority, and would soon get my wish.
When I finished with my shower, I quickly tried to dry my hair. Unfortunately it seemed to take longer than usual, most
likely because I could barely stand the wait. In less than 12 hours, I would be a vampire. It was almost infuriating. Finally,
I got it dry, and rushed through my makeup job, which was a bad idea, because the result was having to start over again.
At long last I stepped out of the bathroom, only to run into Charlie. "Hey Dad, how's it going?" I asked, casually. He was
looking down, and only just realized that I was there. "Oh, hey Bells, today's the big day, isn't it?" he looked like he was
enthusiastic about it, but at the same time, I could see the pain behind his eyes. Suddenly I thought about how leaving
would be painful for me as well. I hated to leave, but at the same time, I couldn't wait. I couldn't wait to start a new life.
It would be a hard one, no doubt, but Edward would be there to help me through it, wouldn't he? And I could also speak
with Carlise to whom blood didn't even phase him, he would definitely be an encouragement.
I sighed and then plastered on a smile for Charlie. "Yeah, today's the day." He nodded and then walked swiftly to the bathroom
behind me. I walked into my room to notice Edward, lounging around. The next second, he was by my side. Over time I had
gotten used to the fact that the Cullens, that vampires could move that quickly. Soon I'd be one with that talent. "So, you ready for
your big day?" Edward smiled my favorite, crooked grin at me as he brushed my hair out of my face. I grinned in return. "Of course!"
He leaned closer to my face, and I closed my eyes, soon feeling his cool lips pressed against mine in a more tender manner than
usual. I broke away, staring at him in disappointment. "You can do better than that." I mumbled a complaint. "Oh, so you want
more force this morning." He smiled once more, leaning in for a more intense, more passionate kiss. "Bella!" I heard Charlie calling
from downstairs. "Not now," I whined. Edward chuckled at my disappointment. "Now Bella, that's no way to treat your father."
I rolled my eyes at him as I yanked the door open. "What is it, Dad?" I yelled as I ran down the stairs. "It's time to leave,
you know, you still have the graduation ceremony rehearsal this morning, not just the real thing."
I gasped. "Oh, right!" This was going to be a long day.
Alright, please tell me if you like it and if I should continue, though I probably will, regardless.
