Stupid, stupid Bella. You've been here a day and you already got yourself lost in the woods. To top it off it's pouring down rain.

Rain, a normal day for most Forks residents was a living hell for me, Miss Arizona. How could anyone stand this much rain? That's all it seemed to do in Forks, Washington.

I stumbled over a rotting tree, falling to my knees and soaking myself even more than I already was. I sat there helplessly lost, the cold rain chilling me to the bone the longer I waited. I know I shouldn't have gone exploring in an area I knew nothing about but the lure of the lush green forest was hard to resist. So I had set out to sight see and the skies decided that they wanted to let loose. And me being from the desert had no sense to wear a rain coat or boots which lead me to my other problem. I was soaked from head to toe, ice-cold, with no inkling on how to get out.

I got up determined to find a house, a road, something to help me. I walked for a couple more hours before I happened upon a very large industrial glass house. I slowly made my way to the door swaying as I tried to knock. My vision was starting to blur, I knew I was in trouble.

A bronze haired stranger opened the door just as my body gave up, golden eyes was the last thing I remember before I succumbed to darkness.

What the heck was a human doing all the way out here?

The girl I found in front of me was beautiful, but I didn't have time to dwell on that fact as her eyes rolled back in her head and she started to collapse. I caught her right before she hit the floor.

What had happened to this beauty?

"Carlisle" I yelled.

Within seconds, due to vampiric speed, he was at my side checking the poor girl over. His thoughts went through the doctor process and what he found made me frown, the girl wasn't going to make it. Her body was cold, even to my icy skin; her pulse was slowing by the minute. I had no doubt that this woman would die in a matter of minutes, no hospital could help her.

Alice flew into the room frantically, "Carlisle you have to change her." Her words came fluidly out of her mouth but her thoughts were chaotic.

"Slow down Alice, why would we have to change her?" Carlisle asked.

She didn't have to answer; reading her thoughts one phrase was crystal clear. This woman, this beautiful creature was my mate.

"She's my mate Carlisle, Alice has seen it." I told him my voice void of any emotion, due to shock. I had finally, after 100 and some odd years, found my mate, my love, my soul mate. Yet she lay in my arms on the verge of a permanent death that even I couldn't save her from.

"Do something, change her I don't care just fix her" I said, the weight of situation hitting me. I became desperate to see those chocolate eyes open again, to see this woman smile.

"Edward, you need to calm down. We can't just go around changing anyone we please. We have to agreement to think of, if the treaty is broken, nothing keeps us safe. She very well maybe your mate but, there most likely is someone out there looking for her." He tried to get me to realize that she was human and that humans died but I didn't care. I didn't care if we were breaking the treaty, I wanted to know her, and if she died my chance at happiness could be lost with her.

"I can't lose her Carlisle, you know very well if we do nothing she will die" I reasoned.

He flinched, knowing I was right. I would hate to force his hand but his indecision was nerve wracking.

"I will change her myself if you refuse to Carlisle, I will not lose her." The words seemed odd coming out of my mouth, I hadn't know this woman but a couple minutes but she already had such an effect on me, even before I knew she was my mate.

"Edward…"his resolve was breaking; I was forcing him to do something he wasn't sure of. I should have been ashamed, but I couldn't get my thoughts passed the frail brunette in my arms.

"Carlisle he's right, she will die. I promise you with everything I am, she is meant to be a part of this family" Alice assured.

I listened as Carlisle thought it all through.

"Alright, I suppose we will deal with the consequences when they come. Hurry, lay her on the couch and I will change her. Edward call for Emmett, at least we can attempt to give her family some closure."

I wasted no time in doing as he asked.

"Emmett get down here." I yelled up the steps.

The quarter back sized vampire came speeding down the stairs.

"What up, why is there a human in the house?" he asked distractedly.

"We are turning her but Carlisle wants you to take her clothes and make it look like she died."

"I'm guessing questions aren't welcome at the moment?" He asked with a quirked brow.

Ah he was perceptive.

"No it's an urgent matter, we will fill everyone in on the details once things settle down. " I say handing him her green jacket and black converse.

"That should suffice. Now hurry please, there may already be a search party out for her."

He wasted no time in zooming out of the house making his way to the cliffs to stage the woman's death. Although if the wolves got involved the mock scene would not fool them but this wasn't for them.

I sat on the couch opposite of the frail little human, watching as Carlisle prepped the unsuspecting girl.

Running my hand through my hair, I sighed, a very human habit, praying for the little human that teetered between life and death.

I hope we didn't wait too long.

Carlisle bit down on her lovely ivory neck with a sickening crunch. Her mouth opened before her screams rained throughout the house, drowning out all other thoughts.

A/N Ok I know on my profile it says I don't like Edward x Bella pairings but this came to me so I decided to go with it. As always review and enjoy!
