Once again, this is not only me writing, my friend and I both discuss the idea. She wrote the beginning and I wrote the rest. Enjoy!!
A shiver ran down my spine as I heard his words. I looked around me to see if I had any chance of escaping him but I saw none. Just as I turned to face him, a pair of familiar hands grasped my waits and lifted me up into his arms. The memory of the last time he had done that flooded my mind and I knew we were in the same danger. Jacob ran but I knew it wouldn't be enough. He would catch up with us. I felt being removed from Jacob's arms by cold hands and Jacob's scared image disappeared into the dark. His sweet breath caressed my cheeks.
"Goodnight Bella, goodnight my love", his velvet voice whispered against my skin. His mouth grazed my neck and just as he was about to bite me I woke up.
My breath came out in loud rasps. I could tell he had been listening to my dream and knew what it was about because he was very tense beside me. Before I could talk, react or make up any excuse, his hands were cupping my face gently, forcing me to look at him.
"Bella, we're not doing this unless you're sure of it", he said looking into my eyes. "I'm not going to damn you to an existence you're not sure of." I could see in his butterscotch eyes the hurt and worry he was trying to hide.
"Silly, of course I'm sure of it", I whispered moving closer to him. I planted a soft kiss on his forehead. "I want to be like you", I kissed his left cheek, "so I can be with you", I kissed his right cheek, "for the rest", I kissed the tip of that perfect nose and heard him sigh, "of eternity." I finally kissed his mouth, feeling my heartbeat quicken and losing myself in what was left of the kiss the kiss because I knew he would pull away soon.
But he didn't. Pleased by this I decided to take it a little bit further and parted my mouth. Right at this moment he pulled away at looked at me with unsure eyes. I thought it was because of what I'd just done and I blushed. But no. It was something else that was bothering him. But I was sure he wouldn't tell me because almost instantly he hid it beneath his perfect crooked smile.
"Why don't you go get ready? Alice will probably start wondering what's going on soon."
I winced. Alice wanted to take me shopping today for the perfect wedding shoes to match my dress. Yesterday when she told me she'd jumped up and down and clapped her hands excitedly and I imagined her disappointed pout if I didn't go, so it didn't matter how much I wanted to stay here next to Edward.
I reluctantly stood up, picked some clothes and walked to the bathroom, thinking about what else I could've said in my sleep that had bothered Edward. I'd been running, and then there'd been Jacob...
Jacob. I found my safety in Jacob's arms.
There was still a part of me that ached for him whenever I thought about him. I hid it pretty well from Edward when sometimes he entered my mind, though I was sure he'd noticed my fallen face a couple of times and it wasn't hard to figure out why. But I guess he thought it better not to mention anything.
But he had never appeared in my dreams. Recently, sometimes I'd dream of me running away from Edward and whenever he was about to bite my neck I'd wake up. I blamed this on being scared and nervous about the change but tonight Jacob had tried to save me and I'd been glad he was there.
As I walked into my room I recomposed my face, so he wouldn't worry. But I was glad he couldn't hear my thoughts because my mind was racing with what this could mean and if... if it meant what I already thought it did.
So?? What did you think?? Please review if it's not much trouble!! This one we intend to keep working on, unlike our first. Thanks for reading!!
