Chapter 1
The shimmer of pristine moonlight broke through the relentless blanket of clouds, streaming through the window and illuminating the room with its radiant shine; slowly sinking the fine skin of my eyelids...releasing me from unconsciousness.
The remains of my dream were still fresh in my mind, not as audible, a mix of colours and images smeared into one. Except from one image, that was more prominent than the rest; the malevolent image of childlike crimson eyes watched me intently; ripples of growls escaping from her perfect lips; a long black cloak floating behind her and hiding most of her face. Abruptly, the girl lunged forward with absolute inhuman speed for the kill...me.
Thunder exploded and erupted in my chest, it was my heart beating in an uneven pace, taking over my whole body. My weak human eyes; blinded by the blazing light of the moon. I began franticly searching the bed with my hands, ripping back the covers from my mangled body and chucking them onto the floor.
Abruptly, I touched something ice cold and marble smooth...this was what I had been looking for.
"I'm right here, Love," Edward said, his voice like gentle ringing chimes.
His face looked absolutely...words could not do him justice when he looked like this; his face reflecting the moons mighty glow. Slowly, he raised his hand to my cheek; with one finger he wiped away a tear from the corner of my, why am I crying? This is totally unacceptable. But, I couldn't stop the flooding of tears cascade down my face.
"I'm sorry," I replied, barely a whisper.
"For what? If anything I should be the one that is sorry," He cringed, his face torn and disgusted by what he saw; I knew he was remembering the horrible memories from Volterra.
"I shouldn't be acting like this. Putting you through more pain seeing me like this," I answered, frustration lingering in my voice.
Within half a second, my face was in his smooth, cool hands, "Bella, don't say that. I totally understand; it's my fault anyway for leaving you, I caused all this. But, it will never happen again, I promise," He smiled, showing his perfect white teeth.
"I know, but it was partly my fault too; if I hadn't jumped of the cliff and..."
Before I had time to think what I was going to say next, Edwards cool lips were crushing mine, and his arms were locked around my waist like iron cages. I didn't repress, I just let myself flow with his movements allowing him to kiss me. My lips moved with his, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. I felt him slowly pull away after that, looking into my eyes with an apologetic expression.
"I'm sorry... again, I forget," I murmured.
"It's okay love, it's me I have to remember to not get to carried away myself; I don't want to hurt you," He said, sincerity in his eyes.
Abruptly, his expression turned impassive and his eyes glazed over, like he was looking a million miles away. The muscles in his face tensed up, his jaw clenched; the grinding of his teeth overpowering all noises. He stood completely still for a few minutes; like an actual statue, but much more beautiful; the moon illuminating his face turning an illuminated grey. Was I that bad? I watched his face intently; only to make myself dizzy and my heart pound against my ribs.
I knew that he was seeing something with his supernatural vampire gift, and I knew something was wrong by the way his whole body was tensed and his muscles more prominent against the surface of his marble skin.
"What did you see, Edward," I asked, my voice high with concern.
"Nothing, I was just thinking of something," He smiled his perfect smile, knowing that I would be swept of my feet the moment I saw it.
I gathered my head again, concentrating on not getting dazzled by his stare. I knew something was wrong, and he was hiding it from me. Whether he's trying to protect me or not, he was keeping something from me; I was only human.
"Edward, something is wrong; I know you saw something."My expression was torn and confused. I looked down at the bed, making sure I didn't look at his gaze, in case he hypnotized me with his unbelievable stare...No Bella, concentrate.
"I'm sorry love, I was watching Alice see a new vision, but it turned out to be nothing important," He answered, his voice soft and smooth; lifting his hands and carefully stroked my cheek.
"Are you sure?" My expression showing uncertainty; I was now staring into his eyes, which were golden from his hunt yesterday.
"Would I lie to you?" He smiled.
I knew why he did a rhetorical question so he wouldn't have to answer me, but I didn't know the answer. I suppressed a sigh and decided I wasn't going to argue tonight; instead I gently kissed him on the lips, smelling his delicious cool breath and buried my head in his chest.
Hi it's me again, hoped you enjoyed that, it will get lots better in the next chapter :) What did Edward really see? What will Bella do? How will everyone react? Thanks x
