We Can Still Survive
Chapter 1
Victorian La Belle
As Edward and I lay awake in my darkened room, my radio sings
softly through the nights secrets. His arms are securely wrapped
around me, like a shield to protect me against the world. We can lie
here without a word all night, only spilling our souls into a cup for the
other to consume. Softly a song began, immediately he and I
recognized the song. His arms tighten the slightest just to reassure me
that his would stay, concrete.
"Time
is gonna take my mind
and
carry it far away where I can fly
The
depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you
If
I were to be alone silence would rock my tears
'cause
it's all about love and I know better
How
life is a waving feather
So
I put my arms around you around you
And
I know that I'll be leaving soon
"May I have this dance?" Edward whispers nuzzling my thick hair
tenderly.
"You may." I laugh. Tentatively he releases me only to pick me
up and carry me to the middle of the room. He looks at me as I lie in
his arms like a treasure, and if I didn't know other wise I saw a tear
glisten in his eyes. Embarrassed he released me slowly.
My
eyes are on you they're on you
And
you see that I can't stop shaking
No,
I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes
'cause
what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath
Oh
could burst it if it were a bubble
And I'd better dream if I have to struggle
So
I put my arms around you around you
And
I hope that I will do no wrong
My
eyes are on you they're on you
And
I hope that you won't hurt me
I silently place my arms around his neck, Edward placed his on my
waist. We began to dance, swaying in time with the music.
I'm
dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No
need for anything but music
Music's
the reason why I know time still exists
Time
still exists
Time
still exists
Time still exists
So
I put my arms around you around you
And
I hope that I will do no wrong
My
eyes are on you they're on you
And
I hope that you won't hurt me
So
I put my arms around you around you
And
I hope that I will do no wrong
My
eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me"
"Thank you, Bella?" Edward asked as the song ended.
"Yes?" I answered my head still buried in his chest to shade the fact
traitor tears had brimmed my eyes.
"Oh, Bella why are you crying?" Edward whispered sounding suddenly
ashamed.
"Please never leave me." I said looking up at him. We continued to
slow dance though the song was much too frantic to dance to.
Gradually we came to a stop; Edward looked at me with such
sadness that my heart broke in two. Edward took my face in his hands
and whispered;
"Never Bella, you're my air, what makes me finally have a reason for
life. Without you I would die." Broken sobs erupted through out the
room, the sounds were coming from me, I realized, my heart. We
hadn't spoken about the hole that ripped my being apart when he left,
and the fact that he tried to kill himself.
I reburied my face securely on his broad perfectly sculpted chest. His
arms returned to their rightful spot.
"I love you." Edward whispered soaking my essence into his memory.
"Now I tell you openly you have my heart so dont hurt me" I quoted
looking up at him. He kissed me fercly, quick and intense. Like
he was saying he would try his best not to.
