This is my first Twilight fanfic. Just something I wrote a day I was bored. This place takes place sort of between Twilight and New Moon

I do not own any of the characters, they belong to the hugely talented Stephenie Meyer

"Why can't we just skip?" I asked Edward while I hugged him tight. He laughed and kissed my forehead, "This is an important field trip, you'll need the information you'll get today for next week's text". We were going to study some water bacteria's for a biology project, and for some stupid reason the girls and boys were separated. That meant that I had to spend a couple of hours without my boyfriend, Edward Cullen. The next couple of hours would be miserable; I always sulked when I was separated from Edward. I sighed and went over to the crowd of girls waiting at the edge of the forest.

The wind blew with such a force that I nearly lost my balance on the way to the lake. I didn't even have a clue as to where we were because I hadn't paid attention on the bus; I had been busy studying Edwards's perfect face. We reached the enormous lake after we'd been walking for five minutes, and the teacher told us what to do. Once more I wasn't paying attention, I had spotted the group of boys standing almost 500 meters from us. My first instinct was to run over to the other group and join Edward, but then the teacher gave me the equipment I needed for the samples and the rest of the class moved closer to the water. While their backs were turned I threw my kit into the trees and headed for the low cliffs nearby. Edward would get the samples for me, so all I had to do now was to sit down and wait for the rest to finish.

I found a tree trunk close the edge of the cliff and sat down. The wind was stronger and colder here, it made me shiver. I got up again and as I was about to go back, the wind blew more forcefully and I lost my balance. I quickly prepared myself to catch my fall, but then I realized I had been standing too close to the edge. I flew towards the water and with a piercing scream I broke the surface. The water was so cold that I thought I would freeze to death, the shock made me open my mouth and I felt my lungs fill with the icy water. I tried to swim up to the surface, but it was like something was pulling me farther into the deep water. It was impossible to breath and it was getting harder to move my body. My vision clouded and I knew for certain that this was it, I was going to die. Seconds later everything around me turned black.

Suddenly my surroundings didn't feel quite as cold, was I dead? My head smashed into something hard and I could hear murmuring around me. Hands pressed down hard on my chest repeatedly until I coughed up the water that had been stuck in my lungs and throat. As soon as all the water was out, I sucked in a deep breath and felt my throat ache. My breathing soon became even, but the pain in my lungs were getting worse every second. Someone lifted me and I slipped back to unconsciousness.

When I woke up later, I immediately understood that I was in a hospital. The sterile scent and the beeping of machines were a dead giveaway. I opened my eyes and stared straight into Edwards's eyes, he had been hovering over my bed. He leaned in closer to my face and said: "Bella, promise me that you'll never go so close to the edge of a cliff again". I nodded and he kissed me lightly on my lips.


Hope you liked it! Please review, I'd like to know what I can improve for future fanfic's
