"What happened, why were you in the mountains in the first place?"Rose asked.

"It was 1954 and I was hanging out with some friends after practice. We were all ball players trying to make it big. We were getting a bite to eat and we started playing truth or dare trying to get chicks. Then someone dared me to go try and wrestle a bear because I was obviously the strongest."

I flexed my muscles. Rose just smiled.

"They convinced me to, but they were all to chicken to come. So I was on my own. We finished eating and all of us had gotten girls numbers."Roses face look a little disturbed at that thought.

"Sorry babe but it's true. You wanted to know."

"Yes but not how many girls you got to give you their number."

"Okay, sorry. Well I went to bed that night telling my parents that I was going camping the next day. They just said okay, be careful, and to watch out for bears. I just thought that it was a little ironic, that they said stay away from the one thing I was looking for." I chuckled a little and Rose smiled again. "When I woke up the next morning and got all my camping gear out. I was having second thoughts but what would I tell the guys if I didn't go?"

Rosalie said "Why didn't you just tell them and you wrestled the bear but didn't go?"

"Well I was not that smart back ten and I have to have had scars. Who gets out of a Bear attack but does not get at least a couple scars? So I went to get all my stuff, told my parents bye, left. All of my friends met me at the café and wished me good luck. I just called them all cowards. I went to the mountains as far as I could by car, then I had to travel by foot. It was a very wild path; it's as if there was no path. I went all the way to the tallest peak and, finally found a bear. I snuck up on the bear, as I got closer I realized that it was a grizzly bear. That's why I think I like grizzly bears so much now." I chuckled a little bit at my own joke. Rose just laughed with me. "When I attacked it, the bear just went ballistic and attacked me; I held it off as long as I could. Then all I remember is the face of an angel, your face." I said as I placed one finger under her chin and kissed her on the forehead. "I tried to keep my eyes open so I could see the angels face and watch as I go to heaven, because there was no way I could still be alive. Then I just remember the worst burning I ever felt in my entire life. Once I woke up and you and Carlisle explained it to me, I realized that it was not such a bad thing as long as I got to spend the rest of eternity with you."

"Does that explain it?"

"Yes but I still think you were an idiot, but I'm glad you were an idiot."

"I love you"

"I love you too babe"
