A white hand appeared in front of my face snapping it's finger's impatiently. I would've flinched if I wasn't so focused on the plump robin resting on the skinny branch of a spruce tree. It twisted it's head back and forth, searching for a threat. I watched with interest.
"Bella!" Edward called, his golden eyes on me. I ignored him, and watched the bird closer. It look as if it was pregnant. Could that be possible? Not the fact it was pregnant, but that it was spring…Could that much amount of time have passed so quickly without me noticing? The Volturi were here what seemed like just days ago. I shuddered slightly.
"Bella?…" He called a little more worriedly now. I turned my head to the right, looking at him from the corner of my eye. I might as well answer him now, no need to make him worry.
"What?" my ringing voice answered. It still surprised me how different it sounded. He hooked me gently around the waist, and pulled me closer.
"Tell me what you're thinking right now." he smirked. I hesitated, and I could feel his waiting eyes on my face.
"Just thinking about how much time has gone by since…. Winter." I didn't really want to bring up the Volturi.
"Yeah, time flies when you have forever." he rolled his eyes.
"Do you ever think that we might not have forever? That it could run out at any minute?" I regretted the words once I'd said them. Edward flinched, and his face was serious.
"Why would you think of such a thing Bella?" he looked at me like I was crazy. I waited for heat to warm my face, but it didn't. I was starting to get used to never blushing again…
"I don't know." I mumbled. " it just seems like everything has been going perfect, and I guess I'm just waiting for something to come and ruin it for us." I turned away from his face, embarrassed. He lifted my head back up with his index finger.
"Bella, you listen to me. Nothing will EVER happen to us. I'll never allow it." his face was hard, and it looked as though he believed his words. I nodded my head stiffly.
"I love you more than my own existence." he smiled down at me. I couldn't help grinning back.
"I love you too." I stretched out the elastic shield from my mind with precision, and wrapped Edward in it. I let all of my feeling flow through my mind. He chuckled lightly.
"You don't even understand how happy it makes me when you do that." he kissed my jaw, and down my throat. The elastic snapped back into place. He sighed, but didn't stop. I started thinking once I had my head to myself again, about how forever could still be over at any moment.
Me and Edward separated, it didn't seem real. I thought about his words again.
'Nothing will never happen to us'.
But something in his words didn't fit right.
