Simply Inevitable Prelude
'Her words drift through my head at the oddest times.'
Sitting across from Jasper in the school cafeteria, sifting through when our eyes lock- his a silent question, pale lips curling upward...
..."Some things are just inevitable. It's fate- and there is absolutely nothing you can do to change them."...
When Bella and I are lying on her bed talking, the curves of her breasts outlined pointedly; purposely- her eyes welcoming, teeth catching lips expectantly...
..."It's in every outcome, every possible strain of the future."...
Sparing Jasper to fill the time- always on the precipice, holding back from destroying each other, in this we are matched; equals and I am spellbound...
..."Believe me when I tell you Edward, that whatever you think you feel for Bella- I certainly never saw it coming."...
Lips lock in an embrace, her eyes flutter and her body tightens; feeling unsettled that the spike in passion is not caused by her body or her taste- but the pulse of her blood dancing beneath my lips and the scent of excitement mixing with her scent, increasing as distance lost...
..."Not once."...
A brush of finger tips against my wrist- a calm flows through my veins like blood when I was human, it is no false manipulation; grounded and calm, I feel no lust for the drug pounding around me...
..."That should tell you something."...'So I guess... it may be time to listen.'
