Okay. This is my first fanfic, so go easy on me and write lots of reviews.

Disclaimer: I unfortunately do not own any of the original twilight characters, plots, or anything else. Got it? That's it for the story.

I sighed. My family members were all busy, it was Valentine's Day. It was sometimes very horrible living in a house where everyone had a soul mate. As I glanced out the window, I remembered the day that I awoke from my horrible transformation, and met Carlisle; my "father". He was an amazing person, if we can still be called that. Even after I came back from my dark age, he forgave me and welcomed me back into the family.

It was almost night time, sunset soon. So I decided to head to my favorite place in the forest. I jumped out the window and ran through the trees. Even though I was going impossibly fast, I could still see every tree and leaf in the forest. As I got closer, I suddenly stopped. I heard a voice singing, and it was coming from my clearing. I crouched low and glided forward silently. Who but I had found this place?

As I got to the edge of the clearing I stopped and stared. The most beautiful creature I had ever seen was lying in the middle of my clearing, singing with the voice of an angel. She had long, flowing, chocolate-brown hair that cascaded to the ground around her. She was beautiful. And when she opened her eyes to gaze at the clouds that were slowly turning pink and orange, I saw that she had the most wonderfully deep brown eyes.

I listened as she softly sang while tears ran silently down her face.

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin' off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal for the life I lead

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see

They're tryin' to come back, all my senses push
Untie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
I'm gonna run till you can't walk
But something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're here not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, You don't need...

What you need, what you need...

Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
And I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do you see what I see...

It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. And as she finished singing and gazed at the sunset, I felt something I had never felt before. It was staggering.

As the sun slowly drifted below the horizon, my angel sighed and stood up. She took two steps and then tripped. Before I realized what I was doing, I had leapt forward and grabbed her around the waist to keep her from falling over. I up-righted her and then took a step back.

"Sorry," I mumbled. I think I scared her badly, because she just kept staring at me with those deep, brown eyes. With my super hearing, I could hear her heart beat; it was racing. I slowly took a step forward and held out my hand for her to shake.

"Edward. Edward Cullen." I said, trying to sound normal as I did.

"Bella. Bella Swan," said, a little breathless. As she took my hand I realized my mistake, she would be repulsed by my cold skin. And yet, as we touched, something happened. I felt a like an electric shock had just ran through my body from my hand. As it went away, I realized that she didn't pull back. I didn't repulse her! I let go first, afraid that maybe after a minute she would realize something was wrong.

"So…" she said, looking uncomfortable. "How long have you been here?" I noticed that she was turning red.

"Ummmm…" I trailed off, trying to think of an excuse for my behavior. Just then I heard a twig snap, and a low growl echoed in the forest; too low for Bella to hear. I scanned the trees with my mind until I heard the thoughts of another vampire. He stepped out past the trees.

"Hello, Edward," He said with an evil smile.

"I sighed. "Hello, James."
