1. Remembering
Bella smiled at the piece of paper in her hand it was a letter from her boyfriend Edward whom she'd been dating for exactly two years now as of tonight, what many in her small home town of Forks didn't know about Edward and his family was that they weren't vampires, and almost two years ago Edward had saved her from being the prey of a nomadic vampire named James. She'd been bitten by the vampire but Edward had sucked out the venom so she wouldn't be changed into a vampire and for a while she'd begged Edward to change her so she could be with him for eternity, he'd refused and so she'd began to pretend like she'd given up on the idea though she was far from it she couldn't imagine her life without Edward and since he'd saved her life tasting her blood they'd grown closer and with each day to she felt her time was growing shorter with him she wanted to be with him till time itself ended, she looked at the letter again Edwards elegant script instructed her to be ready to meet him by five o'clock sharp for dinner with his family. She smiled looking at the clock he would be there in about an hour. She went to her room in her one bedroom apartment and found the dress Edward had bought her it was a deep crimson color that was backless and off the shoulder.
She then finished her hair which she kept loose and at precisely five o'clock she heard the nock on her door she all but ran to answer it and was once gain greeted with the breath taking appearance of Edward his copper hair gleamed in the fading light and who's topaz eye's searched her face with a hungry desire, and still no matter how many times she saw him he still took her breath away his pale hands reached out to her pulling her in to him with an iron grip he then placed a cold yet gentle kiss to her lips whispering in his soft voice "Hello my love" he took a deep breath sniffing the special floral sent she radiated that had at one point been a source of torture for his vampire thirst "How I've missed you" Bella giggled "Oh Edward you saw me less than three hours ago" he smiled down at her "All the same Bella, it pains me to be away from you for more then just a few minutes why do you think even after all this time I stay in your room while you're asleep" She smiled looking at her watch "We should go your family will be expecting us soon" Edward released his iron hold of her and gracefully open the door for her he then walked with her to his shiny Volvo open the door for her then gracefully climbed into the driver seat on the other side in a matter of seconds.
