Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Twilight characters, but if I did oh the wonderful things I would make them do. hehe.

A/N: This is my first fanfic…obviously since this chapter is short. But not to fear, they will get longer…as soon as I come up with a plot. haha. Anyways, review please. It would mean a lot to me. :)

I groaned in dismay at the red mess around me. Why me?, I thought. Why now? This would be the first time, since Edward and I started dating, that I would be on my "flow" around him. Now don't get me mistaken, we've been dating for a while now, matter of fact, we're engaged—the wedding being only a couple months away, it's just whenever I have been on my "monthly" the sun was in my favor or they'd go hunting for the week or both, but this time there was nothing holding him back… unless Alice knew of course, but that's a 50/50 chance, I can never know for sure.

I got up out of bed, silently thanking god that Edward hadn't arrived yet, as I collected the blood soaked sheets, also stopping to grab my bag of toiletries. I opened the door to my room, walking down the hall depositing the stained bed spreads in the washing machine, then continuing on to the bathroom to wash the foul smelling liquid off me.

When I got back inside my room I was startled by a very statuesque Edward sitting in the rocking chair. A look of panic drew itself upon my face, afraid that he could smell the blood through the strawberry scented shampoo that I heavily applied to my body. Edward, thinking the panicked facial expression was out of shock, tried to come closer apologizing all the while, "Sorry Bella, I didn't mean to scare you, I thought you knew I would be waiting for you."

I backed up as he came forward, not wanting the space between us to close, not wanting for him to smell me. Sadly, I watched as the frown on Edward's face deepened not wanting him to think that I was starting to see him as the monster he thinks he is, I told him the truth. "Edward, don't come any closer, I… I'm on my…my period."
