Chapter 3 of Eclipse, Bella asks Edward on a note in their English class what he would do if the plane was going to crash.

This is what they say :

Bella : Both engines exploded and we're falling in a death spiral towards the ground.

Edward : I'd wait till we were close enough to the ground, get a good grip on you, kick out the wall, and jump. Then I'd run you back to the scene of the accident, and we'd stumble around like the too luckiest survivors in history.

What if the plane really did crash? This is my story of what I think would have happened.

28th of August-I've read over it again, fixed some mistakes, added some sentences and got rid of others. Hopefully it's better than before.

Edward and I were on the plane home from Jacksonville, after visting my mom. I was glad she'd finally found someone... her other half. Like I'd found Edward and he'd found me. True love... Soul-mates...

Suddenly plane started wobbling and tipping from side to side. I shook a little in my seat. What was going on?

Edward tensed and put his arm over me protectivly. Huh? Then the loudspeaker announced "We're having a little trouble with the engines."

But from Edward's face I could tell it was more than 'a little trouble'.

"Please put on your oxegen masks and remain calm." The loudspeaker said again. But even he didn't sound very calm. My body froze but my mind raced ahead. I hope we wouldn't have to do an emergency land somewhere. I really want to get home quickly and see Charlie, and the Cullens as well. Oh no, what if we have to wait overnight? Tomorrow is Monday and I have an important assignment due!

Edward grabbed our oxegen masks and I put mine on while he put on his. I knew he didn't need one, he was probably only putting it on so he wouldn't stand out. This thought made me wonder, what would he do at night? He'd have to pretend to be asleep, incase someone saw him staying up all night.

Suddenly the plane jerked forward and began falling down, down, down. I gripped the armrests, ugh, I really hate it when I'm in an airplane and it's a bumpy ride. It's really uncomfortable and kind of nerve racking.

But this was more then a bumpy ride. No, this wasn't just some engine trouble. This was something bigger. I could feel my heart starting to race. Something was wrong. I opened my mouth to say something-I truly don't know what I planned to say-but all that came out was a strange half-strangled sound.

All around us people started panicking and screaming despite the loudspeaker's request to stay calm.

Edward looked down at me with a panicked expression and he looked like he was tring to decide something. Why was he panicking? What was happening? I was scared.

It hadn't sunk in yet. It was like I was in a nightmare. I know what's happening but it hasn't begun to mean anything. Not yet.

"Edward!" I half shouted, half screamed. "What's happening?"

"Both engines have exploded and we're falling in a death spiral towards the Earth." He said through gritted teeth.

I screamed. I'm gonna die! Edward had become a statue. A thing I'd notice vampires do when they're in shock, or worried. Or scared. Only his eyes moved, golden circles of panic, fear, shock... and love.

No. NO. NO! This wasn't supposed to happen! This is the kind of thing you hear about on the TV or in the news. A tragic accident. Plane crashed. Nobody survived. How could this be happening to me?

And what about Edward? Would he survive? Would his vampire strength mean he would be able to save himself? I could only hope that even if I didn't get through this alive... Edward would.

Then he picked me up with such speed and force that my seatbelt snapped in half. He looked around wildly, but no-one was looking in our direction. They were all caught up in their own private nightmare.

"Hold on tight!" He said so fast I had to strain myself to hear every word. I wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my head in his chest. But not before I saw him kicked out the wall, run.. and jump.

The wind might have blown me away if it wasn't for Edward holding me so tightly. It whipped my hair around my head and rushed in and out my ears so I couldn't hear anything but the wind.

Suddenly I felt a thud and I knew we had landed, but I couldn't see. My eyes wear shut tight.

Slowly he put me back on my feet. Then I opened my eyes slowly, half afraid of what I would see.

The first thing I noticed was Edward staring at me. His expression was almost unbearable. So much fear... But only fear for me, no, he didn't fear for himself. Only me. And so, so much love. But again, only love for me. So much love for me.

And then I teared my eyes from Edward and saw the scene that was happening around us. Broken bits of the plane falling about thirty meters away from us. And red bodies falling too. Red because of the blood... So much blood... I was too far away to see if they were alive or not.

I closed my eyes, not wanting to see the scene happening in front of me. I prayed for them.

Please let them live! They don't don't deserve to die, not like this, it's too horrible. Spare their lives, let them live.

I was praying for complete strangers. I don't know any of them but somehow I felt I must try to save them. I survived and they most likely won't. It didn't seem fair. It most certainly was not fair. But, physically... I could do nothing. Helpless. Like I was in a nightmare. Unable to move or speak, just watch.

I turned back to Edward and opened my eyes again. I saw his face and suddenly it all came crashing down on me. I leaned into him as tears rolled down my face and sobs racked my body. He wrapped his arms around me and gently rested his head on top of mine.

"Bella," He said softly. There was so much love in his voice. It was irrational-for him to love me-but at that moment I knew it was true. "I love you... So much. I will do anything for you. I will always protect you no matter what. Never forget that."

"I-I love you too. Always."
