Chapter One

BPOV

I was wrestling with my dress, nervous for god knows why I'm wearing it. Alice woke me up at 3:00 in the morning. So I'm not in the very best mood for anything tonight. I got into trouble by the 'lovely' pixy, Alice, because I fell asleep on my arm and she said I was ruining my hair and make up. But at that point a really didn't care.

Edward was coming in around a half hour, he said that we were going somewhere special. My leg hurt a little when I tried to stand and walk but not horrible. I was lucky, six weeks ago when I 'thought' that James had my mother in the bale studio, but when I got there. I found myself alone and my mother wasn't there. James fooled me. I almost died that day but Edward saved me and had to bite my arm to suck all the venom from where James bit me.

Unintentionally I touched my arm to feel the only cool part of skin in my whole body.

Finally Edward pulled up in a fancy Buick. It was so beautiful I could hardly stand looking at it. But I could stand looking at the car then I could look at the person who was driving the car. I walked close to the porch steps to wait for him. He had to make an appearance for Charlie. "Hello beautiful" he said as he walked up the stairs. But as always I was too dazzled to say anything back.

We went into the house and sat at the table. Charlie came in with a troubled look on his face, probably because he was letting his only daughter to go to the prom with practically a stranger, to him. He sat down right across from me, and sitting next to a god called Edward.( lol I had to put that in there) He cleared his throat and started his "father and boy friend" talk. "Well Edward I see you dressed my girl real fancy tonight, keep her safe for me will ya?" he clenched his fists together then unclenched them. Glad to get that over with. "I sure will sir, don't worry she'll be with us the whole time." Edward smiled a mischievous/sneaky look on his face. I was worried.

Once we were in the car, he sped off onto the turn and headed out. I asked Alice where we were going tonight but all she said was somewhere special. Exactly what Edward said. I was dying to know where he was taking me. So now was my chance to ask. "Edward where are we going, Alice wouldn't tell me anything except for what you said. So PLEASE tell me!?" I heard him chuckle and say "I'm surprised that you don't know where we are going; it's very obvious around the school." I looked at him puzzled. He rolled his eyes and sighed" the prom." That still didn't ring ant bells. So what about the prom? He sighed again and said "I'm taking you to the prom Bella; I thought that you would be excited." Now I felt horrible, but also terrified. I felt horrible because hr thought that I didn't want to go to prom with him, but I did. I was terrified because I had no idea how to dance… at all. Mom new I couldn't dance and never pushed me because of how clumsy I was. He noticed my tenseness. "Do you not want to go to prom with me?" "NO I do want to go to prom with you but…" "But what" he asked "I can't dance… at all" I heard him chuckle beside me. Embarrassed, I blushed and looked out the window. "Bella don't be embarrassed, a lot of people don't know how to dance, plus I know how to dance, very well actually if I do say so myself" I had to laugh at that remark. Well of course he knew hoe to dance. "Bella, you know that I wont leave your side tonight, I promise. Plus you can stand on my feet; no one will be able to notice once we're dancing. How does that sound?"

I felt better now that he understood. I cursed at myself for being in a cast, and then I would be able to at least embarrass my self a little less then I would tonight. We got to the school, I had butterflies in my stomach, But was instantly relieved once I was in Edwards arms. We walked into the auditorium, people looked like they were having a great time. I noticed that there was a great big gap in the dance floor, that when I noticed that they were surrounding other people dancing. It was Jasper and Alice, and Emmett with Rosalie, waltzing to a slow song. That's when Edward grabbed my waist and walked me through the crowd and on to the dance floor. I was terrified, what if I fall, what if a mess up! Edward looked at me and said "don't worry, I wont let you go." And with that he picked me up and set my feet on his. I felt like a toddler, dancing on your daddy's feet. But I didn't really care at all. Then all of a sudden we were floating across the dance floor. At least that's what It felt like. We looked like the other two couples dancing, taking the dancing floor. For once I felt I fit with his family. The song ended and we walked off the stage, Edward wrapped his arm around my waist, just like before and walked to an empty table. He set me down and sat down next to me. "Are you having a good time?" I wouldn't say good but with him here, it was perfect." Ya I'm having a wonderful time." He smiled and looked outside, then he asked me." Do you want to go outside?" "Sure let me get my jacket." But already, it was in his hands and ready for me to set my arms in. he was such a gentlemen, I didn't deserve it, or him.

We walked out into the gazebo. A couple stepped off and we. No I walked gingerly up the stairs. Another slow song came on and again and was standing on his feet and we were floating across the dance floor. I didn't notice I was looking at our feet until he lifted my chin up to look at him. To my surprise, his face was sad, like he was hurting to do something. I put my hand on his face, to encourage him to say something. He finally spoke." Bella you are so beautiful, I have no idea why you choose me to love." I had to hold back my tears that were exactly how I felt about him. "I could not have chosen some one other to love then you Edward. You are so perfect in so many ways I cant explain, you look at me and I can see in your eyes that you love me, which I have no idea why. But can't you see that I love you too?" Then I felt tears roll down my cheeks. Damn tears, you ruin every perfect moment in my life. He wiped them away and smiled my favorite crooked smile. "Bella I do love you with all of my dead heart and nothing could change that, nothing." Then without saying another word, he softly touched his lips to mine. It was a short kiss, but I didn't mind, him kissing me. Me just plain old me was being kissed by the most beautiful lest man in the whole world.

All of a sudden we were floating across the floor again, but this time, I didn't look down. I held my head high and smiled, seeing Edward smile back. We danced song after song, not bothering that it wasn't a slow song or not. But we danced and danced.

But unfortionally we stopped dancing and went back to the family.

After the dance, Edward had a huge grin on his face, it was kind of creepy. "What?" I asked. He needed to stop smiling like that. He just nodded his head and opened the door to set me in the car. He walked to the other side of the car at human speed. He sped off out of the parking lot and down the road. I finally lost my patients with his game and asked. "Where are we going Edward, we aren't going back to Charlie's?" he just smiled and sped up on the road. Then he said. "We are going to see our meadow; I would like to talk to you about some things." Curios I adjusted in my seat to get comfortable, and then grabbed Edwards hand. His smile grew.

We were at the end of the road, even tough it was pitch black outside, I could tell that we were here. He was instantly at my door, opening it and gesturing his hand to mine. Then when I was out of the car, he spun me around and kissed me on the forehead. I wish the he would have kissed my lips, but I had to be good. I knew it was hard for him, so I didn't want to push him. I felt horrible that he had to control himself so much around me that he was in pain.

When I looked into his eyes, they twinkled in the moon light. He said, "Do you want to take a walk with me?" I giggled and nodded. In a split second, I was in his arms being cradled like a mother cradling her baby. I giggled again and he kissed me on the lips before he sprinted into the forest. It was exhilarating watching trees go by. I was kind of anxious about hitting trees so I clenched too tight around his neck. I heard him chuckle as he ran. I kissed his cheek, then his neck. Then we were finally there, in our meadow. He waited for me to let go but I guess I couldn't. He chuckled and helped pry my arms and legs from his body. I slipped and almost hit the ground but he caught me before I did. He grabbed me from around the waist and twirled me around, I smile and giggled.

Now my curiousness got the best of me so I had to ask, "So Edward, what did you want to talk to me about?" I saw his features change and tense a little but then he smiled again and said, "I just needed to tell you how much I love you." I could tell he was holding something back. But I didn't push. He pulled me to a rock where we could both sit together on. But when I was going to sit down he pulled me onto his lap. Shocked but didn't say anything, he smiled and smelled my hair. He let out a sigh then looked up at the night sky. The moon was beautiful. "You know Bella, it nice to have company once in a while at night; usually people would be asleep by now in their beds and snoring. But you would rather stay with a vampire alone and sit on his lap." I had to laugh at that that "Edward, would you rather sleep than time with the one you love, the love of your life, forever?" (I had throw the 'forever' in) Then I felt him stiffen under and I stiffened too until he relaxed and sighed.

"Bella that was what I wanted to talk to you about." He said starring at me intensely. I was a little scared, what was he talking about? Was he talking about the forever thing that I just said? "Edward I'm confused, why are we here then?" he looked at me with troubled, thoughtful eyes. He finally said something

"Bella, have you heard of the Voluri?"
