A/N: I really wanted to write the transformation. So this is probably going to be at most two or three chapters. Please review! Disclaimer: The characters within belong to the genius that is Stephenie Meyer.

"I love you. I have always loved you. I will always love you." Edward's voice sounded anguished as held my face between his cold marble hands and whispered these words to me.

"You are everything to me now," I repeated the words he had once spoken to me. I looked into his liquid gold eyes. "This is my choice, Edward. And I've made it freely under no life-threatening conditions. I choose to become what you are."

"I'm scared," he said simply.

I stared at him in astonishment. My fearless Edward was afraid.

"Edward, I know you can do this. You stopped once before; you will be able to stop again." I assumed the cause of his fear was his worry that he'd kill me.

"Bella, my beautiful Bella." It almost sounded like a prayer the way his voice wrapped around my name. "I'm not worried about killing you. I'm scared that you'll come to regret your decision and resent me for changing you into a vampire."

I leaned closer to him and ran my fingers along his cold cheek.

"I could never regret choosing a path that will ensure we stay together for eternity." I'd joined myself to him for a lifetime on the day of our wedding, but a human lifetime is so short a time to someone who can live forever.

"Please," I whispered.

I heard the intake of his needless breath. It sounded like a surrender.

"Lie back," Edward pushed me back onto the bed gently. "I'm sorry for the pain this is going to cause you, but I'll be here every second of your transformation."

I nodded. Having been bitten by a vampire once before, I knew the torturous physical pain the change brought on - a pain that not only tested your physical endurance, but your mental strength as well. But, I was ready and welcoming.

Edward's lips met mine for one last desperate kiss. I yearned for more as he pulled away. I felt the blood rush to my face. "I'll miss this," he said, grazing the backs of his knuckles against my flushed cheeks. His lips curled into my favorite crooked grin.

"I love you, Bella."

"I love you too, Edward. Forever."

His lips touched my lips, traced along my jaw and found my neck. I felt his teeth graze my skin and then an exquisite pain as he deepened his bite. My body arched upwards. I felt him moving, down my arm to my wrist where he sank his teeth in again.

Then the pain took over.
