Summary

Edward Cullen has been alone for over a century. When Isabella swan walks into his life both of their lives change forever. Whether it is for the good or worse...you'll have to find out.


I watched as the woman stumbled her way into the library, wiping off the rain droplets that had trickled down from her magnificent jet-black hair onto her face with the back of her hands. She smiled at the librarian as she took off her jacket putting it on the back of a chair before walking over to the bookshelf, browsing through all the millions of the books that were stacked neatly on the brown oak wood shelves. Her fingers dancing briskly over the spines. Every few moments she would pull out a book and look it over before sighing in disappointment and tucking it back into it place.

"Isabella dear?" The librarian called from her position behind her desk. Ah so that's her name... I thought to myself. Beautiful and unique.

Isabella's head snapped up from the book she was currently looking over. "Yes?" She answered. Her voice soft as it traveled through my ears. Just one more thing to add to the list of thing that drew me to her.

"I found this book you might like." She say say rummaging through her drawers."It's called Hold Still and its about and young girl trying to rebuild her life after her friends suicide...aha here it is!" She beams holing a black leathered covered book up.

Isabella walks over and gently takes the book from the old librarians wrinkled hand, thanking her plolitely. She skims over the back before opening it a flipping through the pages glancing at some of the words. After she has thoroughly looked through it, she looks back at the librarian, smiling.

"Hmm this does look interesting. I'll give it a try." She says before checking it out.

I quickly sat he book I had been pretending to read and ran after her, my feet splashing in the water causing the bottoms of my jeans to become soaked. I saw her form through the waterfalls of rain down poring and slowed down when I was a couple of feet behind her. "Excuse me miss?" I yell, knowing she wouldn't be able to hear me through the rain as it pounded on the cement.

She jumped turning around, holder her purse tightly to her chest."Yes?" She squeaked fearfully. Ha! She should be afraid. I was about to determine the fate of the rest of our lives.

"Please don't be afraid." I state holding my hands up. "I promise not to hurt you. I just...I saw you in the library and couldn't help but be stunned by your beauty." I say in a alluring voice hoping to ease her nerves. It seems to work because her body visibly relaxes and her cheeks turn a dark shade of red.

"Th-thank y-you." She stutters focusing her eyes on the ground.

"Your welcome." I say politely." I was wondering if you would like to go on a date with me?" I ask. I was very drawn to her. Her jet-black hair and chocolate brown eyes mesmerizing me. I have already decided that she would be mine. Now it was her desition if she would come willingly or if I would have to take her by force.

"Ummm...
