A/N: Hey all! I know, finally I start the sequel. I'm very sorry for the delay I have wayyy too many stories going on in my head at the moment and it's making me a bit insane. This isn't a terribly long chapter, but it's a good intro to the new drama that will happen and there will be lots! Thank you to all of my readers and reviewers and a special thanks to linkkinparkk who helped me with what will happen in the next chapter. I didn't really do a summary of what happened in the last story so if you want me to add that let me know. I really just wanted to get this chapter out so let me know. Okay, enough for now...Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Girls and Boys
BPOV
The rest of the school year passed in a blur. A crazy, happy, blissful blur. Edward and I were nearly inseparable. I only left him to hunt and when he needed his sleep. Charlie was in love with the whole Cullen family and neither of us had ever been happier. We finally had a family. A gigantic, misfit family full of werewolves and vampires and humans…oh my! Carlisle had his parents back, Tanya had finally left to go back and live with her sisters (she was really starting to get on all of our nerves, apparently now that Carlisle was old, she had set her sights on a younger Cullen…my Cullen) and everything was going smoothly. Jake had finally accepted Edward as my boyfriend and they were fast on their way to becoming great friends.
It was the end of the year and with Emmett, Rosalie and Jasper starting college next year and Alice, Edward and me about to be seniors we decided that we needed to go on a huge camping trip to celebrate. Alice was out in charge of the plans while Dad, Jake and I went on a hunt. Jake had finally learned to hunt in his wolf form and loved to come with us. He was the only one allowed to come because of the risk of accident, which went over great with Edward, let me tell you. Ever since I 'almost died' he had been begging me to turn him into a vampire. I kept telling him no. I couldn't do that to him, he had his family to be worried about, plus if the Volturi ever found out, they would want him for sure. It just wasn't an option at the moment. We got back to the Cullens to find everyone packing for the trip. Apparently Alice had 'seen' great weather in the mountains for the next month so we had to leave as soon as possible. In agreement for one kiss from Rosalie, Mike Newton had sold them everything for half price and we were set to go. We left the next day for three weeks of fun in the mountains.
At the end of the second week, we ran out of meat. It seemed as though everyone had underestimated Emmet and Jakes appetite for red meat. Jake and I decided that we would go hunting that night. I just had to remember to kill the animal, not drink it. Knowing that I would be gone all night, Edward and I decided to take a day hike, just the two of us. We hiked for hours until we found a beautiful waterfall to eat lunch at. We sat down to eat (him, not me) and as usual I found myself lost in his eyes.
"Bella, what are you thinking? You've been out of my mind all day, I miss hearing you." He said lovingly.
"Oh Edward, to be honest, my mind was completely blank. It happens whenever you dazzle me with your beautiful eyes. See that's why I can't turn you, I'd miss your big sparkly green eyes." Edward chuckled at my outburst and kissed my knuckles sweetly.
"Love, you can come up with all of the most ridiculous reasons you want, I'll wear you down someday." He answered. "Besides, my eyes certainly aren't the only thing sparkling right now." He said, pointing to my glittering skin. Thank goodness there were no other humans around.
"Whatever you say my dear. Wanna go for a swim?"
We spent the rest of the afternoon swimming and kissing…more kissing than swimming. We arrived back at camp just before dinner time so that Jake and I could go on our hunt. After catching one huge dear we decided that it's be better to hunt every day than have the meat spoil and got ready to head back, me carrying the deer of course. Just as we turned back, we heard an alarming noise off to the left of us. The whole summer had been perfect up to this point and it seemed as if our luck had just run out.
Uh oh! Haha don't freak out, all will be okay. Please review!
