Standing across from me is the most magnificent man I've ever seen. He sweeps his hands down my cheek, my heart speeds up, and I know he can hear it as he smiles. He feels my warmth and I can't believe that he can still dazzle me after all this time.
I was caught up in his beautiful topaz eyes that I almost didn't realize what was behind me. My entire life, Renee, Charlie, I saw my self growing up having children, and Jacob along with his brothers, my brothers in a sense
It wasn't until I felt his strong cold arms around me and I heard the most wonderful voice, "Bella, you're okay, I'm here," that I realized that I was dreaming. I was sweating, why was I sweating?
"Oh, Edward! I love waking up in your arms."
"I love you waking up in my arms as well my love, now go back to sleep."
I looked at the red numbers on my alarm clock. 3:00. I still ad three more hours of sleep before I had to get up. I just wanted to stay awake and be there in his arms.
"Time to go back to sleep, my love."
He started to hum my lullaby. My eyelids unwillingly drooped back to sleep.
Chapter 1 The End is nearThe school year is coming to and end only three more weeks. It feels like an eternity. Since Edward's return we have been inseparable, except during interim times, which consisted of Charlie's mandatory separation time and the brief moments I needed to shower. It is excruciating, I am so anxious when I am not with him. Although, when I am with him he makes me fill out countless college applications. I had no desire to do so, I mean what was the point? After all, after graduation I was going to be changed.
For the first year I will have to stay way form people because that is when I will be most susceptible. It will be a dangerous time for me to be around humans.
At dinner one night Charlie wanted to say something, He was never very good with expressing his feelings, well neither was I until Edward.
"Bella, we need to talk."
"Yeah, Cha- Dad."
"I'm going to conditionally lift your grounding."
"Conditionally?"
