This is a short fic. I plan to just limit it to three chapters. Again I do not own anything.
EDWARD'S POV
She has always sat in the same bench. Day in day out I see her, looking towards the pond, always looking at the distance.
It all started on the first day of spring.
"Edward you've been cooped in your room for the past two weeks. It's already spring. I get it you're hurting, but you can't literally spend your eternity pining." Alice exasperatedly told me.
"Just leave me for now okay?"
"Look Edward, you need to hunt. Come on the weather is nice. It's not that sunny!" She insisted.
I resignedly said. "Fine"
"You won't regret this" The pixie then winked at me before slamming the door shut.
After hunting I decided to take a walk. I found a park with a serene looking pond. It was so picturesque. If I can only feed the ducks that would be lovely. But being the vampire that I am, animals are often afraid of me.
That's one of the things I miss with being human.
I was about to get up when I was overwhelmed with the sweetest scent, if I had been standing my legs might've buckled. It was similar to yet is incomparable to Bella's... it caught me off guard. But unlike Bella's that brings out the monster I am. I want to keep it forever.
I had to find its source. Then I saw her...
I would swear I felt my undead heart beat. My breath got caught on my throat.
Her chestnut hair fell on her back in waves, her heart-shaped face reminded me of a cherub, her eyes are the brownest pair I've ever seen. Eyes that reminds me of the comfort that chocolate used to give me. Eyes that seem to pull me into their very depths. They may be the saddest pair that I've ever seen, but I would want to look at them forever.
Before I realized it the sun had started to set. The girl began to rise.
I would never the thought of not seeing her. Before I knew it I was already following her.
In my haste I didn't realize that like Bella, I can't read her.
This went on for days. A cycle of staring at her and trying to smell her more.
Every time she goes home it frustrates me. There's this pang of sadness I feel whenever I realize that she'll be leaving.
It has been days and I haven't even gotten her name…
"Alice you've been avoiding me."
With a cheshire grin she said. "I don't know what you mean Edward"
"You saw something that day when you decided to not leave me alone. Or shall I say someone?"
"And you decided to stay outdoors every day since then, so have you met her?" She cheerfully said.
"It really depends what you mean by met her… I have seen her but we haven't been formally introduced. I don't know what's happening. One moment I was depressed and suddenly every thought I had is of that girl. It is so overwhelming. I don't know how to explain it…"
Edward then sighed and said. "I'm frustrated because I can't stop myself from seeing her. I don't know what's happening Alice. She doesn't even know I exist! What if she decides not to come? What if she moves, what if she succumbs to depression?"
With a cheshire grin she replied, "If she doesn't know who you are then what should you do? Introduce yourself!"
And with that she skipped her way out of the house. If only things were that simple.
