A bright flash, and my eyes immediately closed up. Pure white was the first thing I saw, though my eyes were protected, before it turned to black. A breeze brushed by me just as my hazel eyes scanned the area I was now in. What I saw surprised me.

The place was covered with many different types of flowers, at least as far as the eye could see. Of course, since flowers were everywhere, as I inhaled oxygen, a sweet aroma was the only smell I could identify. Still spell bounded, my ears twitched as it recognized a voice, though not a familiar one. My eyes landed on a mahogany, wavy haired girl that sat in the meadow we were in. Her hands were occupied by the bouquet of flowers I assumed she had picked. Her head swayed from side to side as she hummed a cheerful melody that seemed to brighten up the place even more.

I took a step towards her. Immediately alarmed, her head perked up before looking at me.

"Who are you?" she demanded, though I sensed a hint of fear. I stood rooted to the spot. Her voice was so alluring that for a second I needed to remind myself to breathe. Plus, the way that her entire body glowing, shinned or whatever you prefer to call it, was definitely not helping.

"Uh…" was the only response I was able to manage. Smooth, Ed. Now she probably thinks you're a nitwit, my mind said to me. She looked at me quizzically until I found my voice. "Edward."

"Edward," she muttered to herself. "And how exactly did you get here, Edward?"

I tried to remember, but my mind came up blank. I then tried to recall what I had been doing before I came here, but I couldn't remember anything at all. I furrowed my eyebrows, deeply thinking before I gave up.

"I don't know. In fact, I don't remember anything."

"If you don't remember anything, then why did you tell me your name was Edward?" She had a point there. How did I know my name when I couldn't seem to remember anything else? I shrugged at her. She looked around before her brown eyes landed on my hazel ones. She truly was beautiful, even if I didn't know her name.

"Bella."

"Huh?"

"My name's Bella, Edward." How did she know I wanted to know her name? She giggled at my confusion before walking away.

Surprised at her action, my instincts told me to follow her and so I did. She noticed my presence, and quickly hastened her pace. I took longer steps to match mine with hers. Soon, she ran with all her might, and I followed suit. We reached a giant oak tree where she rested a hand on the to keep herself from falling. She dropped the flower she was holding as she sat down, leaning against the tree. I stopped a few feet away from her.

"That was fun!" she commented, her grin practically covering her entire face. Her smile was so contagious that I couldn't help but smile back. I dropped to the soil as she had done, my legs stretched out in front of me, forming a v. "So, why did you follow me?"

"Don't know." I shrugged. "Aside from me, you're the only here, so, naturally, my instinct told me to follow you." She smiled while she hugged her knees to her chest. Her white dress was long enough to cover her legs with only her toes visible; she looked so fragile, making me want to protect her.

"This…this is my haven," she said happily, her arms stretched out to her sides, looking around us.
"No one is supposed to enter here without my permission."

"Is that so?" She nodded once.

"So, I'm not sure how you got here…"

"Me neither. All I remember was a flash of white and then I found myself here."

Her eyes widened. "You mean, you didn't pass the golden gates over there?" She pointed past me, to the next hill with a small yellow arch faintly visible. I shook my head.

She muttered to herself, "Weird. How come he didn't enter there but I did?"

There was a silence that hung over us as she stared down at the flowers. I looked around, not knowing what to say. Whenever the breeze brushed past us, I smelt an intoxicating aroma. I looked up at the sky and noticed that it was my favorite kind, even if that sounds incredibly stupid. It was a blue sky with puffy clouds that looked fluffy enough to eat and hold.

"Edward?"

"Yeah?" I responded automatically, my head turning to her direction. Her attention was towards the sky as well.

"I like this kind of sky. It's washes serenity throughout my body." I looked up again, and was glad that she and I had a common interest.

Silence lingered again, and I liked it. This place was truly a relaxing place to be. Every breeze took the anxiety away. The aroma made you want to stay forever. I then heard a melody that I recognized from earlier. Bella was humming while twirling a flower with her hand, looking at it cheerfully.

"I really like it here. J'adore une prairie." She looked at me. "I adore this meadow." I chuckled, and gave her a grin.

"I can see why." She smiled at me before turning back to twirling the daisy.

"So how long have you been here?" I asked, hoping to get her attention back. It worked since she put the flower in her basket and looked at me.

"A while, but I come and go." I looked around. There were no exits aside from the gates she had mentioned, so I assumed she meant that we will go through that. "But of course I don't use the gates when I leave."

My attention snapped back to her, befuddled. "Huh?"

"Well, I enter through the gates, but I don't leave through them. I'm not sure why, but I just vanish into thin air slowly." She paused. "Kinda like what you're doing."

What! I looked at my hands, shocked that what she had said was true. I could see the flowers right through my hands. I stood up alarmed. "Wha-what's happening?" She stood up too, dusting off some pollen on her dress.

"I suppose this means you have to go now…" she whispered sadly.

"Go? Go where?" Instead of answering me, she waved sadly before everything turned to white again.
