Sequel to 'The Beginning of An End'
The full summary of it is:
Issy made my life complete for once. We were happy together, that is until time dawned closer on me telling her my big secret… But I was forced into it much quicker than I had wanted since there was a force out there; one I couldn't protect her against due to the fact I had no idea what it was. And when it continued to strike, I only have one option left – to fight it blind.
So does it sound good? I got the idea a couple nights ago when I was meant to be sleeping. This chapter is in both Issy and Edward's POV as I'm not entirely sure on which character to write in. Please, if you could, vote on my poll and help give me a better understanding of what you readers want.
Okay, sorry for the long intro, here's the chapter:
Issy POV
Edward was out camping with his brother's again, leaving me to my never-ending thoughts of purely him.
I knew I was in love with him, ever since that moment he opened up to me about his bad relationships, I had told him that I would love him forever, no matter what obstacles are thrown our way, that we can dodge them and make it through.
We had met on his first day, he had been so charming, and I was immediately caught ofF guard his beauty. I remember thinking, Could someone be more beautiful? And when I saw his brothers and sisters that infact no, no-one could be more beautiful as they always fell in second place to him.
Within a week we had become inseparable, knowing I had one friend who cared about me was enough, all the bitches who would torment me daily had stopped, I had their dream man, and that was way better than any other boy they had ever dated.
And on my birthday, my seventeenth Edward had kissed my on the lips for the first time it felt as almost as my heart was going to explode from the love I had condoned for him.
"I love you," he whispered gingerly in my ear before his lips quirked in their way that I hated to love, and he had to say his goodbyes, leaving me breathless for the rest of the evening.
Shortly after I had introduced him to my mom, I knew she would approve of him, and she certainly did. She had made biscuits that Edward only occasionally nibbled on and even got out the baby picture to which I cringed at but Edward didn't mind.
"I never had baby photos," he had told my mom about half way through the agonising torture, "They were burnt in a house fire and they were turned to ash."
My mother had made a comment I couldn't quite remember, and Edward had smiled sweetly at her, thanking her for her kind thought.
And that's what confused me about him. At times he was so normal, but other times he just acts so… old-fashioned? And I knew even though it seemed like he had opened up to me about everything, there was one more small, but life-changing thing left in the dark. It seemed like he had tried to tell me, but we were always interrupted and I never had the chance to hear. The furthest he ever got was.
"You need to guess what I-"
He had said that to me at my birthday party, dragging me away into the kitchen where nobody seemed to be. But then he clamped his mouth shut just as mom walked through the door, saying she was just picking up some food and did she barge in during something. I was going to reply yes, but Edward beat me to it just saying he had to take a phone call so it was perfect timing. When I had asked him about it in school the next day he told me it was nothing and I should forget that it ever happened.
Edward POV
Everytime I had tried to tell her I couldn't do it to her. He face was so innocent and alive; I couldn't put her through it.
I needed to clear my head; any excuse would have to do.
"I have to go h-camping with my brothers. They've insisted. If I had it any other way-" I began, before Issy finished the sentence dully.
"Then you would stay with me, I know, I know. Just go, I'll be fine." She sighed, and I knew she perfectly wasn't going to be, but I had to feed soon before my eyes would turn dark and questions would be asked.
"You do know I love you?" I tilted her chin up for her eyes to meet mine before placing my lips on hers, with her breaking away.
"Yes, now go before I change my mind." She giggled as I waved goodbye, heading to my Volvo as she called out, "I love you too!"
I headed up to the cabin my family and I have up just past the Canadian thick in forest full of our favourite meals. Emmett and Jasper had promised to meet me up there later in the day while I got sorted and accustomed to the place I was going to stay for the next couple days, and I decided to past the time by tidying the place up and steaming up some mountain lion blood I had stored frozen in the freezer for myself.
I poured it into a mug and swiftly took it bag in one swig, refilling quickly. I froze, though, as soon as I heard Jasper and Emmett's thoughts as they drove up, parking next to my Volvo.
How are we going to break the news to him? I just hope Jasper does it; he's good with words and explaining difficult things…
"Edward," Jasper's voice in itself sent me straight into panic mode. What was going on?
"We caught a smell in Forks. It's strong and it's feasted on humans recently. But that's not what's the strangest part is, we've caught it's scent up here aswell, as we drove up and we both have reason to believe that it followed you here."
Please review and vote on my pole about this chapter – I need to know if it sounds interesting and if you would continue reading the story,
