Bella POV

Bella POV

I stared at the shiny thing in front of me. " Edward?! What is that doing here?!"

Edward patted the thing with satisfaction and grinned. "That bike, my Bella, is yours. It's high time you learned how to ride a bike.

My eyes widened in horror. "WHAT?! You're going to teach me how to ride a bike?!" Memories flashed through me of the only time I attempted to ride a bike--twelve years ago, at the age of five. After a few turns in my small driveway, I managed to hit a small pebble, fall down and break a tooth. I stayed away from bikes since that fateful--and painful day.

I snapped back to the present when Edward put his arm around me and smiled in his dazzling way. "Don't worry, Bella. I won't let you fall."

"Oh shoot." I thought. "He's working the charm on me again."

"You've got to resist, Bella." I said to myself. Mental images of me hitting a tree or falling over assailed me.

I almost convinced myself to refuse until Edward leaned close and kissed me lightly. I could smell his scent and feel him stroking my hair softly.

"Alright, I'll give it a shot," I heard myself saying. I sighed. Why did I even bother trying to resist?

Edward POV

I've always marveled at Bella's sense of self-preservation. Bloodthirsty vampires, rampaging werewolves, hey, no biggie but when it comes to simple things like dancing and biking, fear overtakes her. Well, let's see if I can change that.

I decided to get her a 4300 Disc (A/N I'll try to post the pic in my profile) bicycle for safety and comfort. Now, the only thing to do was to convince her to give it a chance. That wouldn't be too hard. I dazzle her, don't I?

I parked the bike in front of her house, early in the morning. As soon as she stepped out of the house, she saw the bike. She looked absolutely appalled I was scare she would hyperventilate.

"Edward?! What is that doing here?!" Uh-oh. She didn't sound happy. I gestured to the bike and told her I would be teaching her how to ride a bike. She panicked more, even if I said that I would be teaching her. Hmmm, then she must really detest bikes. Time to work on the charm.

"Don't worry, Bella, I won't let you fall." She hesitated, her eyes searching mine. She looked down and was about to speak up when I leaned toward her and kissed her. Mmm..Her smell, as always, delighted me. And the feeling of her in my arms brought me complete pleasure yet complete pain-the pain of realizing that I was a danger to her.

" Alright. I'll give it a shot," she said. I knew it. Now, let me introduce her to more carefree, happy days together.

--A/N..So how was it? Should I continue it? Or not? If I do, what do you think should happen? I'll post a poll on it. I'm sorry if I did anything wrong. It's my first post.
