Everything looked still. The only reason I knew we were still running through the forest was because of the rush of cold air across my face. My surroundings were a blur until Edward slowly came to a stop. I only just realised where we were after sitting down and taking in a gush of air. Edward had taken me to the very meadow where we experienced our first kiss. I looked into his worried eyes and smiled. He smiled his crooked smile and my heart shattered into a thousand pieces. How could anybody be so perfect?

Edward looked at the ground and then back up at me. "Bella" he said softly.

"Yes Edward" I replied.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes, I've been ready since the day I met you"

He shot me an anxious look and I stood up and walked over to where he was standing. "Edward, you shouldn't be the one who's scared."

He wrapped his cold hard arms around my waste and pressed his dry lips against mine. I pulled away.

"Stop stalling and do it!" I hissed, pulling up my sleeve and holding out my arm in front of him. He stared at my arm for a long time and eventually he lifted his hand and took my mine and stared into my eyes without blinking.

"Bella, I love you, but I just can't do this."

"I want to become a vampire, why can't you give somebody you love so dearly, something they want."

"This is different Bella." he exclaimed as he brought me close to his stone cold body. Once again he tried to erase my memory by taking my breath away with just one single kiss.

I sat down on a rock nearby and tried to get over the dizzy feeling I was having. I looked up, still dizzy, and saw two Edwards walking towards me. I shook my head and placed it in between my knees.

"Bella? Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." I replied. I lifted my head to see two eyes staring at me. Edward chuckled.

"What?"

He didn't answer and walked away and stopped in the direction of the sunset. We both stayed put for about ten minutes and watched the rest of the sun go down, When the mountains had fully covered the sun, the air started to get cooler and I shivered when a gust of wind whooshed past my face. Edward turned to look at me and could see that I was freezing and took off his long sleeve shirt and pulled it over my head. "Better?" he said with a smile.

"Thank you."

"Bella..." he sighed as he turned away from me.

"Yes Edward." I replied looking at the ground.

"I know I asked you this before but are you sure you want to become one of us?" Edward said looking out over the mountains where the sun was ten minutes ago.

"More than ever."

There was silence between us as I waited for Edward to say something.

"I'll do it for you Bella."

My stomach churned as I looked up from the ground to see if he actually meant what he just said. "What?"

"I said I'll do it for you" he hissed.

He didn't sound very enthusiastic but I was as happy as ever.

He turned to look at me, his face so perfect that he gave me butterflies. Half the butterflies in my stomach were from Edward's perfection and the other half was the anxiety from the pain I was about to experience in just a few minutes.

He put his cheek against mine and I closed my eyes and enjoyed the moment while it lasted. Then finally he pulled his head back so he could see my face. "Are you ready Bella?"

"Yes!" I whispered into his ear, tears running down my flushed cheeks. I took his hand and smiled. Edward didn't look too happy.

"I'm doing this for you and for you only."

"I know."

He lowered his head to my arm. He looked up to make sure I hadn't changed my mind. I nodded in approval and shut my eyes tightly.

I didn't realise he had bit me until he has released his teeth from arm and then an excruciating pain started to occur. Alice has told me that the bite of a vampire was one of worst and painful experiences in the world but I didn't think it would be that bad until this very moment. My eyes were still closed tight, although I wanted to see Edwards face so badly. I dropped to the ground and I held my hand tight around the arm, where Edward had bitten me, to try and ease the pain. My whole body went weak and stiff and I couldn't move any part of my body without making the pain even more unbearable. I was sweating like a pig, my lips had gone dry and my legs were shaking furiously. I felt a cold hand stroke my cheek and I opened my eyes slowly to see Edward by my side. He pressed his lips against my forehead but it just made the pain worse. I lay down and closed my eyes again trying to think of happy thoughts but the ache in my arm was too strong. This torturous pain felt like it would never end but in my mind I kept thinking, it's worth it, it's worth it.
