Chapter 1- The Honeymoon
I looked out over the expanse of ocean and sighed. This had to be the greatest day of my life. I was finally married to Edward and we were on my dream Honeymoon, a cruise around the world. I sighed again. The only way that this day could get any better was if I was a vampire. Edward had promised... But of course he seemed to have found a way to get more time out of me.
"Bella, I wanna go on a honeymoon with my mortal wife and asides, if I turned you immortal now you would be starving and you wouldn't be able to control yourself. It takes years of practice. You wont be able to walk near a human safely for at least two years. So please don't make me wait that long for a Honeymoon."
I knew he was buying time, but he was right... I sighed again and looked out at the sea. It was certainly going to be an interesting Honeymoon. That I was sure of. I blinked and when I opened my eyes Edward was in front of me. I jumped back in shock.
"Edward don't do that!" I scowled in a whisper, he had a huge grin on his face. "What if I'd fallen on my head and had a concusion you wouldn't be smiling then." I said and pouted, he didn't lose his smile though.
"I was hoping you would." he said.
"Because then I could catch you right before you hit the ground." I smiled at that.
"You're such a romantic Edward." I looked into his eyes seeing that they were yellow.
"I see you caught something to eat..." Edward had been running to near by islands off the boat so that he could catch some type of animal to eat. "Yes." he yawned. "All the animals are domesticated though, so its no fun to hunt.
"Oh it'll be fun soon enough, when I'm their hunting with you." I replied. I turned around and started towards our room. I didn't want to argue about his promise, a promise I was starting to doubt he would keep.
That night I slept calmly next to Edward, even though he did not sleep he stayed next to me the entire night, or at least he would have if the boat hadn't sunk.
"Bella! Bella! Wake up!" I heard Edwards voice in a panic and so I shot my eyes open. "What is it." I mumbled as I looked around. Everything was in a blur, at first i thought it was because my eyes were watery from sleep, but then I looked again and saw it was because Edward had me in his arms and he was running with me. I screamed and hid my face in his chest.
"Edward why are you running!?" I screamed into him.
"Because the God damn boat is sinking Bella." I gasped and looked up at him(making sure as to not look around).
"What, what happened?"
"I don't know Bella, all i know is that I have to get us to a lifeboat." I could feel us heading up some stairs. I felt sick so I hid my face in his chest again. We were moving up another flight of stairs when it happened, I'm not exactly sure what, all I remember is falling and rolling, the kind of rolling as if you'd jumped out of a speeding car. It happened so fast I don't remember screaming.
***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
I groaned in pain and in annoyance. My head hurt and all I wanted to do was lay here for a while, and someone had to pour water on me, I must be in some sort of tub it's getting higher. I opened my eyes and looked around. My head was pounding and the cold water lapping against my face didn't help. Realization hit me fast and I sat up just as quick making my head spin. I grabbed my forehead and groaned.
"Edward..." I mumbled. "Edward?" My head had stopped spinning and my vision returned, and their in front of me was Edward, or I assumed it was him. Allt hat I could see was his outstretched arms, the rest of him i could not see because the floor above us had collapsed on him.
"Edward!" I screamed. "Edward!" he didn't move. "Oh God..." Tears came rolling down my face.
I stepped forward. I wanted to touch him, to pull him out from the rubble, but as I moved the floor above creaked and groaned dangerously. I jumped back in time as more of the ceiling fell, blocking my view of him. Tears came down harder than before,
"It can't be true, oh God, Edward!" I screamed, assumeing the worst. "I have to get out of here.... Edward wouldn't want me to die..." I thought. I looked around and saw a door, I opened it. It seemed to lead down a hall way that the maids and butlers used. I looked around and saw that it was dry. I closed the door behind me and ran. I knew Edward didn't want me to die. Half way down the hall their was a maid cart tipped over on it's side. I kept running knowing I could easily leap over it. I jumped into the air but my long nightgown got caught on something and I fell on my face. I reached behind me trying to rip my dress away from the cart. And at the exact same time I heard the door from the end of the hallway bust open. I looked up and saw a tidal wave of water crashing down on top of me. I swirled and spun in place as the cart kept hold of my nightgown. Once the overwhelming current stopped I tried to swim to reach air, but the water was to high and my gown was still caught. I struggled against the weight of the maid cart, but I couldn't manage to budge it. I could feel myself getting weaker, the panic was leaving me as everything got black. All I had to do was breathe in the water and it would all be over. "Edward... I'm sorry, I tried to save myself for you, but I'm just so weak without you..." At the same moment I was jerked suddenly away from he cart. I felt something holding me tight. I squirmed against it with the last bits of my strength, it held tighter. I couldn't do this anymore all the oxygen in my body was gone. "I failed you Edward..."I took in a deep breath, expecting instant darkness, but air came rushing into my mouth. My eyes became focused and I looked about, I seemed to still be in water but only above it, I looked around again, their were no walls around me, where on the boat were their no walls?
That's when I realized I wasn't in the boat anymore. I looked around again and saw the last of the boat sink into the ocean. I looked around again, where were the lifeboats? Certainly their had to be some survivors, I felt panic rise within me, I was going to die out here. I felt something bump my leg. didn't sharks do that before eating you? I screamed and folded up my legs. Then he was there, i couldn't believe my eyes.
"Edward!" I gasped.
I swam toward him with the speed of an Olympic swimmer.
"Edward, but how?"
"What do you mean how? Didn't you see me get you out of the ship?" he replied back as I clung to his shoulders.
"That was you? I thought it was the current. I thought I'd only just managed to get out with my life. And Edward... How... How are you alive?"
"Bella have you forgotten? Vampires don't die that easily."
"I know but, I called out to you and you didn't respond, and then more of the second floor fell and I was sure you were dead." tears came back into my eyes.
"Oh Edward what would I do without you!" Then I remembered the shark.
"Edward hurry we have to get out of this water somehow! I felt a shark!"
"That was me Bella." he said adjusting me so that I had a good grip on his shoulders. "I accidentally bumped into you coming up."
"Oh." I said, or at least tried, the next thing I knew Edward was running so fast he was running on water, and I was being carried along for the ride, I screamed before closing my eyes and burring my face into his back, and I swear I heard him laugh. It felt like hours, but it had only probably been ten minutes when I felt Edward slow down then stop. I opened my eyes and he gently lowered me to the ground. I realized I was still soaking wet, I looked up and Edward was also soaking wet. He was wearing long black sleeping shorts(even though he didn't sleep he needed to look the part) and I was wearing a white nightgown that went down to my ankles, the nightgown now had a long rip on it right side from the maid cart. Edward was not smiling as I had hoped and as I looked around I realized why. We were stranded on an uninhabited island, an island so small it looked to be only ten miles long by five miles wide, the island was so small i could count the trees, their was six. Near by I could see smaller islands, four of them. The smallest one only had a one tree. I looked towards Edward for comfort, my panic was rising again. But as I looked into his golden eyes all i saw was panic and fear. And it took me only a second to register that the panic in his eyes wasn't for himself, but for me...
